Item 33.  Recent sales of unregistered securities.
Jesse Stein has purchased 100 Series A-1 common shares issued on February 13, 2014 for a purchase price of $1,000 in a private offering.  Such issuance was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and/or Regulation D thereunder.
Jesse Stein has purchased 100 Series A-2 common shares issued on February 25, 2014 for a purchase price of $1,000 in a private offering.  Such issuance was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and/or Regulation D thereunder.
We will sell 33,333 Series A-1 common shares to our Administrative Agent in a private placement concurrently with the completion of this offering at a price per share equal to the public offering price in the offering. Such issuance will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and/or Regulation D thereunder.
Item 34.  Indemnification of directors and officers.
Pursuant to our operating agreement, we have agreed to indemnify ETRE Financial, LLC, the managing member of our company, and each of our directors and officers, to the fullest extent permitted by law, against all expenses and liabilities (including judgments, fines, penalties, interest, amounts paid in settlement with the approval of the company and counsel fees and disbursements on a solicitor and client basis) arising from the performance of any of their obligations or duties in connection with their service to us or the operating agreement, including in connection with any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other action, suit or proceeding to which any such person may hereafter be made party by reason of being or having been the managing member or one of our directors or officers.
Prior to completion of this offering, we intend to enter into separate indemnification agreements with our directors and officers.  Each indemnification agreement will provide, among other things, for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law and our operating agreement against any and all expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement of any claim.  The indemnification agreements will provide for the advancement or payment of all expenses to the indemnitee and for reimbursement to us if it is found that such indemnitee is not entitled to such indemnification under applicable law and our operating agreement.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
We maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance for our officers and directors.

Item 37.  Undertakings.
(a)The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

(b)Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (or the Securities Act), may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  If a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(c)The undersigned registrant hereby further undertakes that:

(1)For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4), or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2)For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post‑effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Prior to or substantially concurrently with the closing of the sale and purchase of the Initial Securities, (i) the A-1 Series will complete the acquisition of a 48.87% indirect interest in State Street Financial Center, also known as One Lincoln Street, located in Boston, Massachusetts (the “Property”), by acquiring 48.87% of the outstanding equity interests in Lincoln Street Mezz, LLC (the “Acquisition”) pursuant to the terms of a Contribution Agreement, dated as of March 26, 2015, by and among the A-1 Series, Lincoln Street Holdings, LLC and Lincoln Street Mezz, LLC (the “Contribution Agreement”); (ii) also under the terms of the Contribution Agreement, Lincoln Street Mezz, LLC will convert from a Delaware limited liability company to a Delaware limited partnership and be renamed ETRE Property A-1, LP (the “Property A-1 Subsidiary”); (iii) Lincoln Street Holdings, LLC (the “Limited A-1 Partner”) will retain an indirect 51.12% interest in the Property through a limited partnership interest in the Property A-1 Subsidiary; (iv) the A-1 Series, Lincoln Street Manager, LLC (in its capacity as a general partner of the Property A-1 Subsidiary, the “Fortis General A-1 Partner”) and the Limited A-1 Partner will enter into the Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Property A-1 Subsidiary (the “Partnership Agreement”) pursuant to which each of the A-1 Series (in its capacity as a general partner of the Property A-1 Subsidiary, the “REIT General A-1 Partner”) and the Fortis General A-1 Partner will be general partners; (v) the Company and the A-1 Series will grant registration rights to Lincoln Street Holdings, LLC and its permitted assignees in respect of the Common Shares issuable upon exchange of their units of limited partnership interest in the Property A-1 Subsidiary pursuant to a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”); (vi) the A-1 Series and the Property A-1 Subsidiary will enter into an Administrative Services Agreement (the “Administrative Services Agreement”) with the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which the Administrative Agent will provide administrative and advisory services to the A-1 Series and the Property A-1 Subsidiary; (vi) the Property A-1 Subsidiary will engage FPG Lincoln Manager, LLC (the “Asset Manager”) as asset manager for the Property pursuant to an asset management agreement (the “Asset Management Agreement”); and (vii) the Company will enter into a license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with the Managing Member, pursuant to which the Managing Member will grant the Company the right to use the name “ETRE REIT, LLC”.

The Company understands that the Underwriters propose to make a public offering of the Securities as soon as the Representative deems advisable after this Agreement has been executed and delivered.
The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form S-11 (No. 333-194106), including the related preliminary prospectus or prospectuses, covering the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). Promptly after execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company will prepare and file a prospectus in accordance with the provisions of Rule 430A (“Rule 430A”) of the rules and regulations of the Commission under the 1933 Act (the “1933 Act Regulations”) and paragraph (b) of Rule 424 (“Rule 424(b)”) of the 1933 Act Regulations. The information included in such prospectus that was omitted from such registration statement at the time it became effective but that is deemed to be part of such registration statement at the time it became effective pursuant to paragraph (b) of Rule 430A is referred to as “Rule 430A Information”. Each prospectus used before such registration statement became effective, and any prospectus that omitted the Rule 430A Information, that was used after such effectiveness and prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, is herein called a “preliminary prospectus”. Such registration statement, including the amendments thereto, the exhibits and any schedules thereto, at the time it became effective, and including the Rule 430A Information, is herein called the “Registration Statement”.

Except as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, since the Company’s inception, there has been no material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (whether or not remediated). The Company’s auditors and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, or if no such Audit Committee currently exists, the full Board of Directors of the Company, have been advised of: (i) all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting that have adversely affected or are reasonably likely to adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information; and (ii) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

(xxviii) Payment of Taxes. All United States federal income tax returns of the Transaction Entities required by law to be filed have been filed in a timely manner, and all such tax returns are correct and complete in all material respects, and all taxes shown by such returns or otherwise due and payable have been paid, except taxes and assessments against which appeals have been or will be promptly taken and as to which adequate reserves have been provided.

(b)Option Securities. In addition, on the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company hereby grants an option to the Underwriters, severally and not jointly, to purchase up to an additional [ ] shares of Common Shares at the price per share set forth in Schedule A, less an amount per share equal to any dividends or distributions declared by the Company and payable on the Initial Securities but not payable on the Option Securities.

Any such time and date of delivery (a “Date of Delivery”) shall be determined by the Representative, but shall not be later than seven full business days after the exercise of said option, nor in any event prior to the Closing Time, as hereinafter defined. If the option is exercised as to all or any portion of the Option Securities, each of the Underwriters, acting severally and not jointly, will purchase that proportion of the total number of Option Securities then being purchased which the number of Initial Securities set forth in Schedule A opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Initial Securities, subject in each case to such adjustments as the Representative in their discretion shall make to eliminate any sales or purchases of fractional shares.

6.Indemnity and Contribution.

(a)The A-1 Series agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act and each affiliate of any Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under the 1933 Act (each, an “Underwriter Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or any amendment or supplement thereto, any “issuer free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 433(h) under the 1933 Act, any Company information that the Company has filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the 1933 Act, any “road show” as defined in Rule 433(h) under the 1933 Act (a “road show”), or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use therein.

(b)Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the A-1 Series, the Company's directors, officers who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the A-1 Series to such Underwriter, but only with reference to information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or any amendment or supplement thereto, any issuer free writing prospectus, road show or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication. The Company and the A-1 Series hereby agree that such information consists solely of the following: the statements in the [third, eleventh and thirteenth] paragraphs under the caption “Underwriting” in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(c)In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 6(a) or 6(b), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the Representative, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Sections 6(a), and by the Company in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request; (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement; and (iii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

(d)To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 6(a) or 6(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the A-1 Series, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the A-1 Series, on the one hand, and of the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the A-1 Series, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the Securities as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Company and the A-1 Series, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 6 are several in proportion to the respective number of Securities they have purchased hereunder, and not joint.

(e)The Company, the A-1 Series and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 6(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 6(d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 6 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(f)The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 6 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, the A-1 Series or the Administrative Agent contained in, or pursuant to, this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, any person controlling any Underwriter or any affiliate of any Underwriter or by or on behalf of the Company, the A-1 Series, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective officers or directors or any person controlling the Company, the A-1 Series or the Administrative Agent and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Securities.

7.Termination. The Representative may terminate this Agreement by notice given to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Time, (i) except as disclosed in the General Disclosure Package (as amended or supplemented through the time of execution of this Agreement), there has been a material adverse change, or any development involving a prospective material adverse change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business or operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, the effect of which makes it, in your judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, (ii) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, Nasdaq, (iii) trading of any securities of the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (iv) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred, (v) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by Federal or New York State authorities or (vi) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in your judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this clause (vi), makes it, in your judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Sections 1, 4 and 6 shall survive any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7 and shall remain in full force and effect.

8.Default by One or More of the Underwriters. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail at the Closing Time or a Date of Delivery to purchase the Securities which it or they are obligated to purchase under this Agreement (the “Defaulted Securities”), the Representative shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Representative shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24-hour period, then:

(a)if the number of Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the number of Securities to be purchased on such date, each of the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all non-defaulting Underwriters, or

(b)if the number of Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the number of Securities to be purchased on such date, this Agreement or, with respect to any Date of Delivery which occurs after the Closing Time, the obligation of the Underwriters to purchase and of the Company to sell the Option Securities to be purchased and sold on such Date of Delivery shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, the A-1 Series or the Administrative Agent.

No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default.
In the event of any such default that does not result in a termination of this Agreement, or, in the case of a Date of Delivery occurring after the Closing Time, that does not result in a termination of the obligation of the Underwriters to purchase and the Company to sell the relevant Option Securities, as the case may be, either the Representative or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Time or the relevant Date of Delivery, as the case may be, for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements. As used herein, the term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section 8.
9.Notices. All communications hereunder shall be in writing and effective only upon receipt and if to the Underwriters shall be delivered, mailed or sent to you in care of Sandler O’Neill & Partners, 1251 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10020, Attention: General Counsel; and if to the Company shall be delivered, mailed, transmitted or sent to 44 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005, facsimile: 1-646-349-1980, Attention: Jesse Stein.

10.Research Analyst Independence. Each of the Company, the A-1 Series and the Administrative Agent acknowledges that the Underwriters’ research analysts and research departments are required to be independent from their respective investment banking divisions and are subject to certain regulations and internal policies and that such Underwriters’ research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations or publish research reports with respect to the Company or the offering that differ from the views of their respective investment banking divisions. Each of the Company, the A-1 Series and the Administrative Agent acknowledges that each of the Underwriters is a full service securities firm and, as such, from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities of the companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

This Agreement shall each inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Underwriters, the Company, the A-1 Series, the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and, to the extent provided in Section 6, the controlling persons, affiliates, directors and officers referred to in Section 6. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the Underwriters, the Company, the A-1 Series, the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and the controlling persons, affiliates, directors and officers referred to in Section 6 and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. This Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Underwriters, the Company, the A-1 Series and the Administrative Agent and their respective successors, and said controlling persons, affiliates, directors and officers and their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

12.No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. Each of the Company, the A-1 Series and the Administrative Agent acknowledges and agrees that (a) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Securities and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the several Underwriters, on the other hand, (b) in connection with the offering contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, the A-1 Series or the Administrative Agent, or their stockholders, creditors, employees or any other party, (c) no Underwriter has assumed or will assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company, the A-1 Series or the Administrative Agent with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company, the A-1 Series or the Administrative Agent on other matters), and no Underwriter has any obligation to the Company, the A-1 Series or the Administrative Agent with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (d) the Underwriters and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of each of the Company, the A-1 Series or the Administrative Agent, and (e) the Underwriters have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and each of the Company, the A-1 Series and the Administrative Agent has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.

13.Integration. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) by and among the Company, the A-1 Series, the Administrative Agent and the Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

The Company shall not be required, before or after filing, to deliver or mail a copy of the Certificate of Formation, any qualification document or any amendment thereto to any Member.

Section 3.2.    Series of the Company; Establishment of A‑1 Series and A-2 Series.

(a)Establishment of Series. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Board of Directors may, at any time and from time to time, by a written action or actions approved by the Board of Directors in compliance with Section 3.2(c) (each, a "Series Designation"), establish one or more series (each a "Series"). The Series Designation establishing one or more Series shall relate solely to the Series established thereby and shall not be construed: (i) to affect the terms and conditions of any other Series, or (ii) to designate, fix or determine the rights, powers, authority, privileges, preferences, duties, responsibilities, liabilities and obligations in respect of Shares associated with any other Series, or the Members associated therewith. The terms and conditions for each Series established pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall be as set forth in this Agreement and the Series Designation for the Series.

(b)Series Operation. Each of the Series shall operate to the extent practicable as if it were a separate limited liability company. Accordingly, references to the Company herein shall, unless and only to the extent the context otherwise requires, be interpreted to refer to each individual Series severally.

(c)Establishment of the A‑1 Series and the A-2 Series. Without limiting the authority of the Board of Directors to establish and designate any further Series by Series Designation:

i.Series A-1 of the Company (the "A-1 Series") was originally established and designated, effective as of February 13, 2014, pursuant to the terms of the Original LLC Agreement. The Board of Directors hereby ratifies, confirms and approves the establishment and designation of the A-1 Series in all respects. This Agreement shall constitute the Series Designation of the A-1 Series, and the terms and conditions for the A-1 Series shall be as set forth in this Agreement.
  
ii.Series A-2 of the Company (the "A-2 Series") was originally established and designated, effective as of February 25, 2014, pursuant to the terms of the Original LLC Agreement. The Board of Directors hereby ratifies, confirms and approves the establishment and designation of the A-2 Series in all respects. This Agreement shall constitute the Series Designation of the A-2 Series, and the terms and conditions for the A-2 Series shall be as set forth in this Agreement.

(d)Series Designation. The Series Designation establishing a Series may: (i) specify a name or names under which the business and affairs of such Series may be conducted; (ii) designate, fix and determine the relative rights, powers, authority, privileges, preferences, duties, responsibilities, liabilities and obligations in respect of Shares of such Series and the Members associated therewith (to the extent such terms differ from those set forth in this Agreement), (iii) designate or authorize the designation of specific Directors or Officers to be associated with such Series and (iv) establish or authorize the establishment of committees of the Board of Directors to be associated with such Series, appoint or authorize the appointment of Directors or other natural Persons to serve on such committees, delegate or authorize the delegation to such committees of any of the powers of the Board of Directors, except as prohibited by law, and designate or authorize the designation of the members of such committees to be associated with such Series. A Series Designation (or any resolution of the Board of Directors amending any Series Designation) shall be effective when a duly executed original of the same is delivered to the Secretary of the Company for inclusion among the permanent records of the Company, and shall be annexed to, and constitute part of, this Agreement (it being understood and agreed that, upon such effective date, the Series described in such Series Designation shall be deemed to have been established and the Shares of such Series shall be deemed to have been authorized in accordance with the provisions thereof). The Series Designation establishing a Series may set forth specific provisions governing the rights of such Series against a Member associated with such Series who fails to comply with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the applicable provisions of such Series Designation). In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and a Series Designation, the terms and conditions of the Series Designation shall prevail.

(e)Assets and Liabilities Associated with a Series.

i.Assets Associated with a Series. All consideration received by the Company for the issuance or sale of Shares of a particular Series, together with all assets in which such consideration is invested or reinvested, and all income, earnings, profits and proceeds thereof, from whatever source derived, including any proceeds derived from the sale, exchange or liquidation of such assets, and any funds or payments derived from any reinvestment of such proceeds, in whatever form the same may be ("assets"), shall, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, be held for the benefit of the Members associated with such Series, and not for the benefit of the Members associated with any other Series, for all purposes, and shall be accounted for and recorded upon the books and records of the Company separately from any assets associated with any other Series. Such assets are herein referred to as "assets associated with" that Series. In the event that there are any assets in relation to the Company that, in the Board of Directors' reasonable judgment, are not readily associated with a particular Series, the Board of Directors shall allocate such assets to, between or among any one or more of the Series, in such manner and on such basis as the Board of Directors deems fair and equitable, and any asset so allocated to a particular Series shall thereupon be deemed to be an asset associated with that Series. Each allocation by the Board of Directors pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.2(e)(i) shall be conclusive and binding upon the Members associated with each and every Series. Separate and distinct records shall be maintained for each and every Series, and the Board of Directors shall not commingle the assets of one Series with the assets of any other Series.

ii.Liabilities Associated with a Series. All debts, liabilities, expenses, costs, charges, obligations and reserves incurred by, contracted for other otherwise existing ("liabilities") with respect to a particular Series shall be charged against the assets associated with that Series. Such liabilities are herein referred to as "liabilities associated with" that Series. In the event that there are any liabilities in relation to the Company that, in the Board of Directors' reasonable judgment, are not readily associated with a particular Series, the Board of Directors shall allocate and charge (including indemnification obligations) such liabilities to, between or among any one or more of the Series, in such manner and on such basis as the Board of Directors deems fair and equitable, and any liability so allocated and charged to a particular Series shall thereupon be deemed to be a liability associated with that Series. Each allocation by the Board of Directors pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.2(e)(ii) shall be conclusive and binding upon the Members associated with each and every Series. All liabilities associated with a Series shall be enforceable against the assets associated with that Series only, and not against the assets associated with any other Series, and except to the extent set forth above, no liabilities shall be enforceable against the assets associated with any Series prior to the allocation and charging of such liabilities as provided above. Any allocation of liabilities that are not readily associated with a particular Series to, between or among one or more of the Series shall not represent a commingling of such Series to pool capital for the purpose of carrying on a trade or business or making common investments and sharing in profits and losses therefrom. The Board of Directors has caused notice of this limitation on interseries liabilities to be set forth in the Certificate of Formation, and, accordingly, the statutory provisions of Section 18‑215(b) of the Delaware Act relating to limitations on interseries liabilities (and the statutory effect under Section 18‑207 of the Delaware Act of setting forth such notice in the Certificate of Formation) shall apply to the Company and each Series. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no distribution on or in respect of Shares in a particular Series, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any distribution made in connection with the winding up of such Series, shall be effected by the Company other than from the assets associated with that Series, nor shall any Member or former Member associated with a Series otherwise have any right or claim against the assets associated with any other Series (except to the extent that such Member or former Member has such a right or claim hereunder as a Member or former Member associated with such other Series or in a capacity other than as a Member or former Member).

(f)Ownership of Series Property. Title to and beneficial interest in Series Property shall be deemed to be held and owned by the relevant Series, and no Member or Members of such Series, individually or collectively, shall have any title to or beneficial interest in specific Series Property or any portion thereof. Each Member of a Series irrevocably waives any right that it may have to maintain an action for partition with respect to its interest in the Company, any Series or any Series Property. Any Series Property may be held or registered in the name of the relevant Series, in the name of a Subsidiary of the relevant Series, in the name of a nominee, or in "street name", as the Board of Directors may determine; provided, however, that Series Property shall be recorded as the property of the relevant Series on the Company's books and records, irrespective of the name in which legal title to such Series Property is held. Any corporation, brokerage firm or transfer agent called upon to transfer any assets to or from the name of any Series shall be entitled to rely upon instructions or assignments signed or purporting to be signed by the Board of Directors or its agents without inquiry as to the authority of the person signing or purporting to sign such instruction or assignment or as to the validity of any transfer to or from the name of such Series.

(g)Prohibition on Issuance of External Debt and Preferred Shares. Neither the Company, nor any Series or any Subsidiary of such Series, shall incur or issue external indebtedness or issue preferred shares (including Preferred Shares) by or that otherwise corresponds to such Series or any Subsidiary of such Series, provided, however, that the Company, a Series or a Subsidiary of a Series may so incur external debt (including through any guarantee of external debt) or issue preferred shares (including Preferred Shares) if the Series or a Subsidiary of such Series receives the net proceeds of such incurrence or issuance or such incurrence of external indebtedness or issuance of preferred shares is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than a majority of the Common Shares of such Series then Outstanding.

Section 3.3.    Authorization to Issue Shares.

(a)The Company may issue Shares, and options, rights, warrants and appreciation rights relating to Shares, for any Company or Series purpose at any time and from time to time to such Persons for such consideration (which may be cash, property, services or any other lawful consideration) or for no consideration and on such terms and conditions as the Board of Directors shall determine, all without the approval of any Members, notwithstanding any provision of Sections 9.1 or 9.2. Each Share shall have the rights and be governed by the provisions set forth in this Agreement (including any Share Designation or Series Designation) and the Bylaws. Except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement (including any Share Designation or Series Designation), no Shares shall entitle any Member to any preemptive, preferential or similar rights with respect to the issuance of Shares.

(b)As of the date of this Agreement, the Series A‑1 Common Shares have been designated as Common Shares of the A-1 Series, and the Series A-2 Common Shares have been designated as Common Shares of the A-2 Series. As of the date of this Agreement, immediately prior to the initial closing of the Series A-1 IPO, the Initial Member holds an aggregate of 100 Series A-1 Common Shares, which shares will be repurchased by the Company with the net proceeds of the Series A-1 IPO immediately following the initial closing of the Series A-1 IPO. As of the date of this Agreement, the Initial Member holds an aggregate of 100 Series A-2 Common Shares, which shares will be repurchased by the Company with the net proceeds of the Series A-2 IPO immediately following the initial closing of the Series A-2 IPO.

(c)In addition to the Common Shares Outstanding on the date hereof, and without the consent or approval of any Members, additional Shares of a Series may be issued by the Company in one or more classes or series, with such designations, preferences, rights, powers and duties (which may be junior to, equivalent to, or senior or superior to, any existing classes or series of Shares of such Series), as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors and reflected in a written action or actions approved by the Board of Directors in compliance with Section 5.1 (each, a "Share Designation") or in a Series Designation, including (i) the right to share in Series distributions, the dates distributions will be payable and whether distributions with respect to such series or class will be cumulative or non‑cumulative; (ii) rights upon dissolution or termination and liquidation of the Company or such Series; (iv) whether, and the terms and conditions upon which, the Company may redeem the Shares; (v) whether such Shares are issued with the privilege of conversion or exchange and, if so, the conversion or exchange price or prices or rate or rates, or any adjustments thereto, the date or dates on which, or the period or periods during which, the Shares will be convertible or exchangeable and all other terms and conditions upon which the conversion or exchange may be made; (vi) the terms and conditions upon which such Shares will be issued, evidenced by certificates and assigned or transferred; (vii) the terms and amounts of any sinking fund provided for the purchase or redemption of Shares of the class or series; (viii) whether there will be restrictions on the issuance of Shares of the same class or series or any other class or series; and (ix) the right, if any, of the holder of each such Share to vote on Company or Series matters, including matters relating to the relative rights, preferences and privileges of such Shares; provided, however, that no Share Designation shall be required in connection with the issuance of Series A-1 Common Shares; provided, further, that, upon the initial closing of the Series A-2 IPO, the Board of Directors shall approve a Share Designation in respect of the Series A-2 Common Shares. A Share Designation (or any resolution of the Board of Directors amending any Share Designation) shall be effective when a duly executed original of the same is delivered to the Secretary of the Company for inclusion among the permanent records of the Company, and shall be annexed to, and constitute part of, this Agreement. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Share Designation or Series Designation, the Board of Directors may at any time increase or decrease the amount of Shares of any class or series, but not below the number of Shares of such class or series then Outstanding.

(d)Subject to Section 3.2(g) hereof, and unless otherwise provided in the applicable Share Designation or Series Designation, the Company is authorized to issue in respect of each Series an unlimited number of Common Shares and an unlimited number of Preferred Shares. All Shares issued pursuant to, and in accordance with the requirements of, this Article III shall be validly issued Shares in the Company, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Delaware Act or this Agreement (including any Share Designation or Series Designation).

(e)The Board of Directors may, without the consent or approval of any Members, amend this Agreement and make any filings under the Delaware Act or otherwise to the extent the Board of Directors determines that it is necessary or desirable in order to effectuate any issuance of Shares pursuant to this Article III, including, without limitation, an amendment of Section 3.3(d).

Section 3.4.    Series A-1 Common Shares. In addition to the other provisions of this Agreement applicable to Common Shares generally, the Series A-1 Common Shares shall be subject to the following provisions:
(a)Voting.

i.The Series A-1 Common Shares shall entitle the Record Holders thereof to one vote per Share on any and all matters submitted to the consent or approval of Members generally.  No separate vote or consent of the Record Holders of Series A-1 Common Shares shall be required for the approval of any matter, except as required by the Delaware LLC Act, except as provided in Section 3.4(a)(ii) or except as provided elsewhere in this Agreement.

ii.The affirmative vote of the holders of not less than a majority of the Series A-1 Common Shares then Outstanding shall be required for:

1.any amendment to this Agreement that would adversely change the rights of the Series A-1 Common Shares; 

2.a Significant Transaction;

3.except as provided in Section 10.3(d), mergers, consolidations or conversions of the Company; 

4.the termination  and winding up of the A-1 Series, following an election by the Board of Directors to terminate  the A-1 Series (including, without limitation, following an election by the Board of Directors to dissolve the Company); 

5.any incurrence or issuance of external indebtedness or preferred shares (including Preferred Shares) by or that otherwise corresponds to the A-1 Series, the Property A-1 Subsidiary and/or the Subsidiaries of the A-1 Series or the Property A-1 Subsidiary that does not satisfy the conditions described in Section 3.2(g); and

6.all such other matters as the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, determines shall require the approval of the holders of the Outstanding Series A-1 Common Shares voting as a separate class. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time during the Less Than Majority Period, the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than the Applicable Percentage then Outstanding shall be required for a Significant Transaction.
Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, the separate approval of the holders of Series A-1 Common Shares shall not be required in the case of a Board Redemption pursuant to Section 3.4(e) or for any of the other matters specified under Section 9.3.
For the avoidance of doubt, for so long as the holders of Voting Units have the right pursuant to the Property A-1 Subsidiary Operating Partnership Agreement to vote on any Significant Transaction that is to be voted upon by the holders of Series A-1 Common Shares, such Significant Transaction shall be submitted to the consent or approval of the holders of the Series A-1 Common Shares and the holders of the Voting Units in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Property A-1 Subsidiary Operating Partnership Agreement.
(b)Distributions. Subject to the preferential rights, if any, of holders of any other class of Shares of the A-1 Series and to Article XIII, holders of outstanding Series A-1 Common Shares are entitled to receive distributions on the Series A-1 Common Shares on an equal per-Share basis to all holders of Series A-1 Common Shares out of assets legally available for such purposes if, as and when authorized by the Board of Directors and declared and paid by the Company. Distributions in respect of the Series A-1 Common Shares may be made, as determined by the Board of Directors, (1) in cash, (2) in Series A-1 Common Shares or (3) in other securities of the A-1 Series or the Property A-1 Subsidiary (or other Subsidiaries of the A-1 Series or the Property A-1 Subsidiary).
 
(c)Share Distributions.

i.Subject to the preferential rights, if any, of holders of any other class of Shares of the A-1 Series, the Company may declare and pay distributions to holders of Series A-1 Common Shares that consist of (1)  Series A-1 Common Shares on an equal per-Share basis to all holders and (2) other securities of the A-1 Series or the Property A-1 Subsidiary (or other Subsidiaries of the A-1 Series or the Property A-1 Subsidiary) on an equal per-Share basis to all holders.
 
ii.The Company shall not declare and pay a share distribution with respect to the Common Shares of any Series (other than the A-1 Series) consisting of Series A-1 Common Shares or any other securities of the A-1 Series or the Property A-1 Subsidiary (or other Subsidiaries of the A-1 Series or the Property A-1 Subsidiary).  

(d)Valuations of Share Distributions.  In the case of distributions of Shares or other securities for which there is an existing trading market, the value of the Shares or other securities included in such distribution will be calculated based on the average Market Price per Share or security over a three Trading Day period immediately preceding the distribution payment date.  In the case of distributions of Shares or other securities for which there is no existing trading market, the value of the Shares or other securities included in such distribution will be determined by the Board of Directors in good faith.

(e)Redemption at Option of Board of Directors. At any time following the initial closing of the Series A-1 IPO, the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may, at any time, subject to the availability of assets legally available therefor and the preferential rights, if any, of holders of any other class of Shares of the A-1 Series, redeem, on a pro rata basis, all of the outstanding Series A-1 Common Shares in exchange for an aggregate number of outstanding fully paid and non-assessable (if applicable) shares of common stock of, or partnership, limited liability company or other equity interests in, the Property A-1 Subsidiary, a Subsidiary of the Property A-1 Subsidiary and/or any other Subsidiary of the A-1 Series (any such Subsidiary or Subsidiaries, the "A-1 Series Subsidiary" or the "A-1 Series Subsidiaries", as applicable) equal to the number of outstanding shares of common stock of, or partnership or other equity interests in, such A-1 Series Subsidiary (or such A-1 Series Subsidiaries) held by the A-1 Series, provided that (i) substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the A-1 Series are held, directly or indirectly, by such A-1 Series Subsidiary (or such A-1 Series Subsidiaries) and (ii) the holders of Series A-1 OP Units (other than the A-1 Series or an A-1 Series Subsidiary) receive or retain securities or consideration of substantially equivalent value (as determined by the Board of Directors) to the securities being exchanged to the holders of the Series A-1 Common Shares (a "Board Redemption").  

In connection with any Board Redemption, the Company may first cause any A-1 Series Subsidiary to elect to be treated as a corporation that will elect and qualify to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes (or convert such A-1 Series Subsidiary into a corporation that will so elect and qualify) or convert such A-1 Series Subsidiary into a Delaware statutory trust, including an entity that has an operating partnership subsidiary. 
If, at the time of such a Board Redemption, there are outstanding any Convertible Securities convertible into or exercisable for Series A-1 Common Shares that would become exercisable or convertible for shares of, or partnership, limited liability company or other equity interests in, the applicable A-1 Series Subsidiary as a result of such redemption, and the obligation to issue such shares or partnership, limited liability company or equity interests under such Convertible Securities is not assumed or otherwise provided for by such A-1 Series Subsidiary, then the Series A-1 Common Shares underlying such Convertible Securities will be taken into account for purposes of determining the terms of any redemption effected in connection with such Board Redemption.
(f)Distribution or Redemption in Connection with Certain Significant Transactions. In the event of a Disposition by the A-1 Series in a transaction or series of related transactions of all or substantially all the A-1 Series' interest in the Property A-1 Subsidiary, whether held directly or through Subsidiaries of the A-1 Series, or the Property A-1 Subsidiary's interest in the A-1 Property, whether held directly or through Subsidiaries of the Property A-1 Subsidiary, to any Person(s) or group(s) of which the A-1 Series is not a majority owner (whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or stock, liquidation, dissolution, winding up or otherwise) (a "Significant Transaction"), the Company shall, upon, or as soon as practicable after, the consummation of such Disposition (but, in any event, no later than the first Business Day following the end of the 10-Trading Day period beginning on the 15th Trading Day following the consummation of such Disposition), declare and pay a distribution and/or effect a redemption (a "Significant Transaction Distribution/Redemption"), at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, in accordance with Section 3.4(g). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Company shall be under no obligation to declare and pay and/or effect a Significant Transaction Distribution/Redemption that it might otherwise be required to declare and pay and/or effect pursuant to such sentence (i) in connection with a spin-off or similar disposition of the A-1 Series' entire interest in the A-1 Property to the holders of Series A-1 Common Shares, including any such disposition that is made in connection with a Board Redemption, or (ii) in connection with the liquidation, termination, dissolution or winding up of the Company or the A-1 Series, whether voluntary or involuntary.
(g)Consideration in Connection with Significant Transaction Distribution/Redemption. In connection with any Significant Transaction Distribution/Redemption, the Company may at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, (i) either (x) subject to the limitations described in Section 3.4(b) and to the other provisions described in this Section 3.4(g), declare and pay a distribution in cash and/or in securities or other property (determined as provided below) to holders of the outstanding Series A-1 Common Shares equally on a share for share basis in an aggregate amount equal to the A-1 Series Net Proceeds of such Significant Transaction; or (y) provided that there are assets legally available therefor and subject to the preferential rights, if any, of holders of any other class of Shares of the A-1 Series, then (A) if such Significant Transaction involves the Disposition of all (not merely substantially all) of the A-1 Series' interest in the Property A-1 Subsidiary or the Property A-1 Subsidiary's interest in the A-1 Property, redeem all outstanding Series A-1 Common Shares in exchange for cash and/or securities or other property (determined as provided below) in an aggregate amount equal to the A-1 Series Net Proceeds of such Significant Transaction; or (B) if such Significant Transaction involves the Disposition of substantially all (but not all) of the A-1 Series' interest in the Property A-1 Subsidiary or the Property A-1 Subsidiary's interest in the A-1 Property, apply an aggregate amount of cash and/or securities or other property (determined as provided below) equal to the A-1 Series Net Proceeds of such Significant Transaction to the redemption of outstanding Series A-1 Common Shares, the number of shares to be redeemed to equal the lesser of (1) the whole number nearest the number determined by dividing the aggregate amount so allocated to the redemption of the Series A-1 Common Shares by the average Market Price of one Series A-1 Common Share during the 10-Trading Day period beginning on the 15th Trading Day following the consummation of such Disposition, and (2) the number of Series A-1 Common Shares outstanding, and (ii) subject to the limitations described in Section 3.4(b) and to the other provisions described in this Section 3.4(g), combine the payment of a distribution on and the redemption of Series A-1 Common Shares for cash and/or other securities or other property as described below.

In the event that the Board of Directors elects the option described in (ii) of the preceding paragraph, a distribution shall first be paid on all the outstanding Series A-1 Common Shares equally on a share for share basis, and some or all of the outstanding Series A-1 Common Shares shall thereafter be redeemed for cash and/or other securities or other property, as follows. The aggregate amount of such distribution shall equal a portion of the total A-1 Series Net Proceeds determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, and the portion of the A-1 Series Net Proceeds to be applied to such a redemption shall equal an amount equal to the total A-1 Series Net Proceeds less the aggregate amount of such distribution. If the Significant Transaction involves the Disposition of all (not merely substantially all) of the A-1 Series' interest in the Property A-1 Subsidiary or the Property A-1 Subsidiary's interest in the A-1 Property, then, following the payment of such distribution, all remaining outstanding Series A-1 Common Shares will be redeemed in exchange for cash and/or securities or other property in an aggregate amount equal to the portion of the A-1 Series Net Proceeds to be applied to the redemption. If the Significant Transaction involves the Disposition of substantially all (but not all) of the A-1 Series' interest in the Property A-1 Subsidiary or the Property A-1 Subsidiary's interest in the A-1 Property, then the portion of the A-1 Series Net Proceeds to be applied to the redemption will be used to redeem a number of shares equal to the lesser of (1) the whole number nearest the number determined by dividing the aggregate amount so allocated to the redemption of the Series A-1 Common Shares by the average Market Price of one Series A-1 Common Share during the 10-Trading Day period beginning on the 15th Trading Day following consummation of the Disposition, and (2) the number of Series A-1 Common Shares outstanding.

For purposes of this Section 3.4, in the case of a Significant Transaction involving a Disposition of the A-1 Series' interest in the Property A-1 Subsidiary or the Property A-1 Subsidiary's interest in the A-1 Property in a series of related transactions, such Disposition shall not be deemed to have been consummated until the consummation of the last of such transactions. Any redemption described in this Section 3.4 shall be effected in accordance with the applicable provisions set forth in Section 3.4(h). For purposes of this Section 3.4, the term "Exchange Shares" shall mean shares of or partnership, limited liability company or other equity interests in the Property A-1 Subsidiary, as the case may be, for which Series A-1 Common Shares may be exchanged pursuant to a Board Redemption or securities which may distributed to Series A-1 Common Shares or for which Series A-1 Common Shares may be exchanged pursuant to a Significant Transaction Redemption/Distribution, as applicable.
In the event that, at the time of any Significant Transaction, there are outstanding any Convertible Securities convertible into or exercisable for Series A-1 Common Shares that would give the holders rights to receive any distribution or redemption consideration related to the Significant Transaction upon exercise, conversion or otherwise, or would adjust as a result of such distribution or redemption to give the holder equivalent economic rights, then the Series A-1 Common Shares underlying such Convertible Securities will be taken into account for purposes of determining the terms of any distribution payment or redemption effected in connection with such Significant Transaction Distribution/Redemption.
For purposes of this Section 3.4, "substantially all" of the A-1 Series' interest in the Property A-1 Subsidiary as of any date shall mean at least 80% of the outstanding partnership, limited liability company or other equity interests in the Property A-1 Subsidiary held by the A-1 Series, whether held directly or through Subsidiaries of the A-1 Series, as of such date, and "substantially all" the Property A-1 Subsidiary's interest in the A-1 Property as of any date shall mean a portion of such real property that represents at least 80% of the Fair Value of such real property attributed to the Property A-1 Subsidiary, whether held directly or through Subsidiaries of the Property A-1 Subsidiary, as of such date.
(h)Certain Procedures Relating to Redemptions and Distributions.

i.The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, elect to issue or deliver fractional Exchange Shares in connection with a redemption or distribution or to make a cash payment in lieu of fractional shares, as described below. If the Board of Directors elects not to issue or deliver fractional Exchange Shares, then no such fractional shares shall be issued or delivered in connection with the redemption or distribution, and, in lieu thereof, each holder of Series A-1 Common Shares who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional interest of an Exchange Share shall, upon surrender of such holder's certificate or certificates representing Series A-1 Common Shares, receive a cash payment (without interest) (the "Fractional Payment") equal to the Fair Value of such fractional interest as is determined by the Board of Directors.

ii.No adjustments in respect of distributions shall be made upon the exchange of any Series A-1 Common Shares; provided, however, that, if the Redemption Date with respect to Series A-1 Common Shares shall be subsequent to the Record Date for the payment of a distribution thereon or with respect thereto but prior to the payment or distribution thereof, the Registered Holders of such Shares at the close of business on such Record Date shall be entitled to receive the distribution payable on such Shares on the date set for payment of such distribution, notwithstanding the redemption of such Shares or the Company's default in payment of the distribution due on such date.

iii.At such time or times as the Company exercises its right to cause a Board Redemption, and at the time of any redemption pursuant to any Significant Transaction Redemption/Distribution, the Company shall give notice of such redemption to the holders of Series A-1 Common Shares whose shares are to be redeemed, by mailing by first-class mail a notice of such redemption (a "Redemption Notice"), in the case of a redemption at the discretion of the Board of Directors, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption (the "Redemption Date"), and, in the case of any other required redemption, as soon as practicable before or after the Redemption Date, in either case, to their last addresses as they appear upon the Company's books. Each such Redemption Notice shall specify the Redemption Date, and shall state that the payment of cash (including any Fractional Payment), issuance of certificates representing the applicable type of Exchange Shares or the delivery of the other applicable property (such cash, Exchange Shares or other property, the “Reference Property”) to be received upon exchange of Series A-1 Common Shares shall be upon surrender of certificates representing such Series A-1 Common Shares.

iv.Before any holder Series A-1 Common Shares shall be entitled to receive any Reference Property, such holder must surrender, at such office as the Company shall specify, certificates for such Series A-1 Common Shares duly endorsed to the Company or in blank or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer to the Company or in blank, unless the Company shall waive such requirement. The Company shall, as soon as practicable after such surrender of certificates representing such Series A-1 Common Shares, pay, issue and/or deliver to the holder for whose account such Series A-1 Common Shares were so surrendered, or to such holder's nominee or nominees, the Reference Property to which such holder shall be entitled.

v.From and after any Redemption Date, all rights of a holder of Series A-1 Common Shares shall cease except for the right, upon surrender of the certificates representing such Series A-1 Common Shares, to receive Reference Property, as described in Section 3.4(h)(i) and Section 3.4(h)(iii) and rights to distributions as described in Section 3.4(h)(ii). No holder of a certificate that immediately prior to the applicable Redemption Date represented Series A-1 Common Shares shall be entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution with respect to Exchange Shares until surrender of such holder's certificate for a certificate or certificates representing Exchange Shares. Upon surrender, the holder shall receive the amount of any dividends or other distributions (without interest) that were payable with respect to a record date after the Redemption Date, but that were not paid by reason of the foregoing with respect to the number of Exchange Shares represented by the certificate or certificates issued upon such surrender.
 
vi.If any certificate for Exchange Shares is to be issued in a name other than that in which the certificate representing Series A-1 Common Shares surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of such issuance that the person requesting the issuance pays any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of certificates for such Exchange Shares in a name other than that of the record holder of the certificate surrendered, or establishes, to the satisfaction of the Company or its agent, that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Under no circumstances shall the Company or the A-1 Series be liable to a holder of Series A-1 Common Shares for any Exchange Shares or dividends or distributions thereon delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

(i)Absence of Certain Other Rights. Holders of Series A-1 Common Shares shall have no conversion, exchange, sinking fund, redemption or appraisal rights, no pre-emptive rights to subscribe for any securities of the Company and no preferential rights to distributions of the A-1 Series.

(j)Status of the Property A-1 Subsidiary. For so long as the A-1 Series or one of its Subsidiaries is a general partner of the Property A-1 Subsidiary, the Property A-1 Subsidiary shall deemed to be a Subsidiary of the A-1 Series for purposes of this Agreement.

(k)Issuances of Additional Securities. For so long as the A-1 Series is a party to the Property A-1 Subsidiary Operating Partnership Agreement, the issuance of (a) Series A-1 Common Shares, (b) other classes of Shares of the A-1 Series, (c) rights, options, warrants or convertible or exchangeable securities having the right to subscribe for or purchase Series A-1 Common Shares or any other class of Shares of the A-1 Series or (d) indebtedness issued by the Company and corresponding to the A-1 Series or by the A-1 Series that provides any of the rights described in clause (c) shall be subject to any applicable restrictions set forth in the Property A-1 Subsidiary Operating Partnership Agreement.

Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Company by the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, President or any Vice President and by the Chief Operating Officer, the Treasurer, any Assistant Treasurer, the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary. No Certificate representing Shares shall be valid for any purpose until it has been countersigned by the Transfer Agent; provided, however, that if the Board of Directors elects to issue Shares in global form, the Certificates representing Shares shall be valid upon receipt of a certificate from the Transfer Agent certifying that the Shares have been duly registered in accordance with the directions of the Company. Any or all of the signatures required on the Certificate may be by facsimile. If any Officer or Transfer Agent who shall have signed or whose facsimile signature shall have been placed upon any such Certificate shall have ceased to be such Officer or Transfer Agent before such Certificate is issued by the Company, such Certificate may nevertheless be issued by the Company with the same effect as if such Person were such Officer or Transfer Agent at the date of issue.

The appropriate Officers on behalf of the Company shall execute, and the Transfer Agent shall countersign and deliver, a new Certificate in place of any Certificate previously issued if the Record Holder of the Certificate: (i) makes proof by affidavit, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, that a previously issued Certificate has been lost, destroyed or stolen; (ii) requests the issuance of a new Certificate before the Company has notice that the Certificate has been acquired by a purchaser for value in good faith and without notice of an adverse claim; (iii) if requested by the Company, delivers to the Company a bond, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, with surety or sureties and with fixed or open penalty as the Company may direct to indemnify the Company, the applicable Series and the Transfer Agent against any claim that may be made on account of the alleged loss, destruction or theft of the Certificate; and (iv) satisfies any other reasonable requirements imposed by the Company. If a Member fails to notify the Company within a reasonable time after he has notice of the loss, destruction or theft of a Certificate, and a transfer of the Shares represented by the Certificate is registered before the Company or the Transfer Agent receives such notification, the Member shall be precluded from making any claim against the Company, the applicable Series or the Transfer Agent for such transfer or for a new Certificate. As a condition to the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent) reasonably connected therewith.

Section 3.7.    Record Holders. The Company shall be entitled to recognize the Record Holder as the owner of a Share and, accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Share on the part of any other Person, regardless of whether the Company shall have actual or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by law or any applicable rule, regulation, guideline or requirement of any National Securities Exchange on which such Shares are listed for trading. Without limiting the foregoing, when a Person (such as a broker, dealer, bank, trust company or clearing corporation or an agent of any of the foregoing) is acting as nominee, agent or in some other representative capacity for another Person in acquiring and/or holding Shares, as between the Company on the one hand, and such other Persons on the other, such representative Person shall be the Record Holder of such Shares.

Section 3.8.    Registration and Transfer of Shares.

Subject to the restrictions on transfer and ownership limitations contained below and in Article XIII hereof:
(a)The Company shall keep or cause to be kept on behalf of the Company and each Series a register that will provide for the registration and transfer of Shares. Unless otherwise provided in any Share Designation or Series Designation, the Transfer Agent is hereby appointed registrar and transfer agent for the purpose of registering Common Shares and transfers of such Common Shares as herein provided. Upon surrender of a Certificate for registration of transfer of any Shares evidenced by a Certificate, the appropriate Officers of the Company shall execute and deliver, and in the case of Common Shares, the Transfer Agent shall countersign and deliver, in the name of the holder or the designated transferee or transferees, as required pursuant to the Record Holder's instructions, one or more new Certificates evidencing the same aggregate number and type of Shares as were evidenced by the Certificate so surrendered, provided, that a transferor shall provide the address and facsimile number for each such transferee as contemplated by Section 12.1.

(b)The Company shall not recognize any transfer of Shares until the Certificates evidencing such Shares, if any, are surrendered for registration of transfer. No charge shall be imposed by the Company for such transfer; provided, that as a condition to the issuance of any new Certificate, the Company may, on behalf of the applicable Series, require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed with respect thereto.

(c)By acceptance of the transfer of any Share, each transferee of a Share (including any nominee holder or an agent or representative acquiring such Shares for the account of another Person) (i) shall be admitted to the Company as a Substitute Member with respect to the Shares so transferred to such transferee when any such transfer or admission is reflected in the books and records of the Company, (ii) shall be deemed to agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, (iii) shall become the Record Holder of the Shares so transferred, (iv) grants powers of attorney to the Officers of the Company and any Liquidator of the Company, as specified herein, and (v) makes the consents and waivers contained in this Agreement. The transfer of any Shares and the admission of any new Member shall not constitute an amendment to this Agreement.

(d)Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude the settlement of any transactions involving Shares entered into through the facilities of any National Securities Exchange on which such Shares are listed for trading.

Section 3.9.    Splits and Combinations.

(a)Subject to paragraph (d) of this Section, Section 3.3 and Section 3.4, and unless otherwise provided in any Share Designation or Series Designation, the Company may make a pro rata distribution of Shares of any class or series of a Series to all Record Holders of such class or series of Shares of a Series, or may effect a subdivision or combination of Shares of any class or series of a Series, in each case, on an equal per-Share basis and so long as, after any such event, any amounts calculated on a per-Share basis or stated as a number of Shares are proportionately adjusted.

(b)Whenever such a distribution, subdivision or combination of Shares is declared, the Board of Directors shall select a Record Date as of which the distribution, subdivision or combination shall be effective and shall send notice thereof at least 20 days prior to such Record Date to each Record Holder as of a date not less than 10 days prior to the date of such notice. The Board of Directors also may cause a firm of independent public accountants selected by it to calculate the number of Shares to be held by each Record Holder after giving effect to such distribution, subdivision or combination. The Board of Directors shall be entitled to rely on any certificate provided by such firm as conclusive evidence of the accuracy of such calculation.

(c)Promptly following any such distribution, subdivision or combination, the Company may issue Certificates to the Record Holders of Shares as of the applicable Record Date representing the new number of Shares held by such Record Holders, or the Board of Directors may adopt such other procedures that it determines to be necessary or appropriate to reflect such changes. If any such combination results in a smaller total number of Shares Outstanding, the Company shall require, as a condition to the delivery to a Record Holder of such new Certificate, the surrender of any Certificate held by such Record Holder immediately prior to such Record Date.

(d)Subject to Section 3.4 and unless otherwise provided in any Share Designation or Series Designation, the Company shall not issue fractional Shares upon any distribution, subdivision or combination of Shares. If a distribution, subdivision or combination of Shares would otherwise result in the issuance of fractional Shares, each fractional Share shall be rounded to the nearest whole Share (and a 0.5 Share shall be rounded to the next higher Share).

Section 3.10.    Agreements and Bylaws. The rights of all Members and the terms of all Shares are subject to the provisions of this Agreement (including any Share Designation or Series Designation) and the Bylaws.

Subject to the terms of any Share Designation or any Series Designation (including, without limitation, the preferential rights, if any, of holders of any other class of Shares of the applicable Series) and of Article XIII, distributions shall be paid to the holders of the Common Shares of a Series on an equal per-Share basis as of the Record Date selected by the Board of Directors. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not be required to make a distribution to any Member on account of its interest in any Series if such distribution would violate the Delaware Act or other applicable law.
(b)Notwithstanding Section 4.1(a), in the event of the termination and liquidation of a Series, all distributions shall be made in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Section 8.3(a).
(c)Each distribution in respect of any Shares of a Series shall be paid by the Company, directly or through the Transfer Agent or through any other Person or agent, only to the Record Holder of such Shares as of the Record Date set for such distribution. Such payment shall constitute full payment and satisfaction of the Company's and such Series' liability in respect of such payment, regardless of any claim of any Person who may have an interest in such payment by reason of an assignment or otherwise.

(a)Subject to other applicable provisions of this Article V, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Indemnified Persons shall not be liable to the Company, any Series, any Subsidiary of any Series, any Director of the Company or associated with any Series, any Member or any holder of any equity interest in any Subsidiary of any Series, for any acts or omissions by any of the Indemnified Persons arising from the exercise of their rights or performance of their duties and obligations in connection with the Company or any Series, this Agreement or any investment made or held by the Company or any Series, including with respect to any acts or omissions made while serving at the request of the Company or on behalf of any Series as an officer, director, member, partner, tax matters partner, fiduciary or trustee of another Person or any employee benefit plan. The Indemnified Persons shall be indemnified by the Company and, to the extent Expenses and Liabilities are associated with any Series, each such Series, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted by law, against all expenses and liabilities (including judgments, fines, penalties, interest, amounts paid in settlement with the approval of the Company and counsel fees and disbursements on a solicitor and client basis) (collectively, "Expenses and Liabilities") arising from the performance of any of their duties or obligations in connection with their service to the Company and/or each such Series or this Agreement, or any investment made or held by the Company, each such Series or any Subsidiaries of such Series, including in connection with any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other action, suit or proceeding to which any such Person may hereafter be made party by reason of being or having been a manager of the Company or such Series under Delaware law, a Director or Officer of the Company or associated with such Series or any Subsidiary of such Series, or an officer, director, member, partner, tax matters partner, fiduciary or trustee of another Person or any employee benefit plan at the request of the Company or on behalf of such Series. Without limitation, the foregoing indemnity shall extend to any liability of any Indemnified Person, pursuant to a loan guaranty or otherwise, for any indebtedness of the Company, any Series or any Subsidiary of any Series (including any indebtedness which the Company, any Series or any Subsidiary of any Series has assumed or taken subject to), and the Officers are hereby authorized and empowered, on behalf of the Company or any Series, to enter into one or more indemnity agreements consistent with the provisions of this Section 5.6 in favor of any Indemnified Person having or potentially having liability for any such indebtedness. It is the intention of this Section 5.6(a) that the Company and each applicable Series indemnify each Indemnified Person to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(b)The provisions of this Agreement and the Bylaws, to the extent they restrict the duties and liabilities of an Indemnified Person otherwise existing at law or in equity, including Section 5.8, are agreed by each Member to modify such duties and liabilities of the Indemnified Person to the extent permitted by law.

(c)Any indemnification under this Section 5.6 (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Company and each applicable Series unless the Board of Directors determines in the specific case that indemnification of the Indemnified Person is not proper in the circumstances because such person has not met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 5.6(a). Such determination shall be made by a majority vote of the Directors who are not parties to the applicable suit, action or proceeding. To the extent, however, that an Indemnified Person has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such Indemnified Person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection therewith, notwithstanding an earlier determination by the Board of Directors that the Indemnified Person had not met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 5.6(a).

(d)Notwithstanding any contrary determination in the specific case under Section 5.6(c), and notwithstanding the absence of any determination thereunder, any Indemnified Person may apply to the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any other court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware for indemnification to the extent otherwise permissible under Section 5.6(a). The basis of such indemnification by a court shall be a determination by such court that indemnification of the Indemnified Person is proper in the circumstances because such Indemnified Person has met the applicable standards of conduct set forth in Section 5.6(a). Neither a contrary determination in the specific case under Section 5.6(c) nor the absence of any determination thereunder shall be a defense to such application or create a presumption that the Indemnified Person seeking indemnification has not met any applicable standard of conduct. Notice of any application for indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.6(d) shall be given to the Company promptly upon the filing of such application. If successful, in whole or in part, the Indemnified Person seeking indemnification shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such application.

(e)To the fullest extent permitted by law, expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by an Indemnified Person in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Company and each applicable Series in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company and each such Series as authorized in this Section 5.6.

(f)The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant to this Section 5.6 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under this Agreement, or any other agreement, vote of Members or disinterested Directors or otherwise, and shall continue as to an Indemnified Person who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnified Person unless otherwise provided in a written agreement with such Indemnified Person or in the writing pursuant to which such Indemnified Person is indemnified, it being the policy of the Company that indemnification of the persons specified in Section 5.6(a) shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law. The provisions of this Section 5.6 shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person who is not specified in Section 5.6(a) but whom the Company or an applicable Series has the power or obligation to indemnify under the provisions of the Delaware Act.

(g)The Company and any Series may, but shall not be obligated to, purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any Person entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.6 against any liability asserted against such Person and incurred by such Person in any capacity to which they are entitled to indemnification hereunder, or arising out of such Person's status as such, whether or not the Company would have the power or the obligation to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Section 5.6.

(h)The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Section 5.6 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of any person entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.6.

(i)The Company and any Series may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the Company and/or such Series and to the employees and agents of the Company Group similar to those conferred in this Section 5.6 to Indemnified Persons.

(j)If this Section 5.6 or any portion of this Section 5.6 shall be invalidated on any ground by a court of competent jurisdiction the Company and each applicable Series shall nevertheless indemnify each Indemnified Person as to expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including a grand jury proceeding or action or suit brought by or in the right of the Company, to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Section 5.6 that shall not have been invalidated.

(k)Each of the Indemnified Persons may, in the performance of his, her or its duties, consult with legal counsel and accountants, and any act or omission by such Person on behalf of the Company or any Series in furtherance of the interests of the Company or such Series in good faith in reliance upon, and in accordance with, the advice of such legal counsel or accountants will be full justification for any such act or omission, and such Person will be fully protected for such acts and omissions; provided that such legal counsel or accountants were selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Company or such Series.

(l)An Indemnified Person shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 5.6 because the Indemnified Person 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.

(m)Any liabilities which an Indemnified Person incurs as a result of acting on behalf of the Company or any Series (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 Internal Revenue Service, 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 indemnifiable under this Section 5.6, to the maximum extent permitted by law.

(n)A Director shall, in the performance of his duties, be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company and any Series and on such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company by any of the Officers or employees of the Company and/or associated with any Series or any other Group Member, or committees of the Board of Directors, or by any other Person as to matters the Director reasonably believes are within such other Person's professional or expert competence.

(o)Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 5.6 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the liability of or other rights of any indemnitee under this Section 5.6 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 and provided such Person became an indemnitee hereunder prior to such amendment, modification or repeal.

Section 5.7.    Duties of Officers and Directors.

(a)Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or required by the Delaware Act, (i) the duties and obligations owed to the Company by the Officers and Directors shall be the same as the duties and obligations owed to a corporation organized under DGCL by its officers and directors, respectively, and (ii) the duties and obligations owed to the Members by the Officers and Directors shall be the same as the duties and obligations owed to the stockholders of a corporation under the DGCL by its officers and directors, respectively.

The Liquidator may defer liquidation or distribution of the Series' assets for a reasonable time if it determines that an immediate sale or distribution of all or some of the assets would be impractical or would cause undue loss to the Members associated with such Series.

(c)Subject to the terms of any Share Designation or Series Designation (including, without limitation, the preferential rights, if any, of holders of any other class of Shares of the applicable Series), all property and all cash in excess of that required to discharge liabilities as provided in Section 8.3(b) shall be distributed to the holders of the Common Shares of the Series on an equal per-Share basis.

(a)Basic Restrictions.

i. (1) No Person, other than an Excepted Holder, shall Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Shares of such Series in excess of the Aggregate Ownership Limit, (2) no Person, other than an Excepted Holder, shall Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Common Shares of such Series in excess of the Common Share Ownership Limit and (3) no Excepted Holder shall Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Shares of such Series in excess of the Excepted Holder Limit for such Excepted Holder.

ii.No Person shall Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Shares of such Series to the extent that such Beneficial Ownership or Constructive Ownership of Shares of such Series would result in the Series being "closely held" within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code (without regard to whether the ownership interest is held during the last half of a taxable year), or otherwise failing to qualify as a REIT (including, but not limited to, Beneficial Ownership or Constructive Ownership that would result in the Series owning (actually or Constructively) an interest in a tenant that is described in Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code if the income derived by the Series from such tenant could cause the Series to fail to satisfy any of the gross income requirements of Section 856(c) of the Code).

iii.Any Transfer of Shares of such Series that, if effective, would result in the Shares of such Series being beneficially owned by fewer than 100 Persons (determined under the principles of Section 856(a)(5) of the Code) shall be void ab initio, and the intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such Shares of such Series.

(b)Transfer in Trust. If any Transfer of Shares of such Series occurs which, if effective, would result in any Person Beneficially Owning or Constructively Owning Shares of such Series in violation of Section 13.2(a)(i) or (ii).

i.then that number of Shares of such Series the Beneficial Ownership or Constructive Ownership of which otherwise would cause such Person to violate Section 13.2(a)(i) or (ii) (rounded up to the nearest whole share) shall be automatically transferred to a Trust for the benefit of a Charitable Beneficiary, as described in Section 13.11, effective as of the close of business on the Business Day prior to the date of such Transfer, and such Person shall acquire no rights in such shares; or

ii.if the transfer to the Trust described in clause (i) of this sentence would not be effective for any reason to prevent the violation of Section 13.2(a)(i) or (ii), then the Transfer of that number of Shares of such Series that otherwise would cause any Person to violate Section 13.2(a)(i) or (ii) shall be void ab initio, and the intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such Shares of such Series.

Section 13.3.    Remedies for Breach. If the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee thereof shall at any time determine in good faith that a Transfer or other event has taken place that results in a violation of Section 13.2 or that a Person intends to acquire or has attempted to acquire Beneficial Ownership or Constructive Ownership of any Shares of a Series in violation of Section 13.2 (whether or not such violation is intended), the Board of Directors or such committee thereof shall take such action as it deems advisable to refuse to give effect to or to prevent such Transfer or other event, including, without limitation, causing the Company to redeem shares, refusing to give effect to such Transfer on the books of the Company or instituting proceedings to enjoin such Transfer or other event; provided, however, that any Transfer or attempted Transfer or other event in violation of Section 13.2 shall automatically result in the transfer to the Trust described above, and, where applicable, such Transfer (or other event) shall be void ab initio as provided above irrespective of any action (or non-action) by the Board of Directors or such committee thereof.

Section 13.4.    Notice of Restricted Transfer. Any Person who acquires or attempts or intends to acquire Beneficial Ownership or Constructive Ownership of Shares of a Series that will or may violate Section 13.2(a) or any Person who would have owned Shares of a Series that resulted in a transfer to the Trust pursuant to the provisions of Section 13.2(b) shall immediately give written notice to the Company of such event or, in the case of such a proposed or attempted transaction, give at least 15 days prior written notice, and shall provide to the Company such other information as the Company may request in order to determine the effect, if any, of such Transfer on the Series' qualification as a REIT.

Section 13.5.    Owners Required To Provide Information. From the Initial Date of a Series and prior to the Restriction Termination Date of such Series:

(a)every owner of five percent or more (or such lower percentage as required by the Code or the U.S. Treasury Department regulations promulgated thereunder) of the outstanding Shares of such Series, within 30 days after the end of each taxable year, shall give written notice to the Company stating the name and address of such owner, the number of Shares of each class and series of such Series Beneficially Owned and a description of the manner in which such Shares are held. Each such owner shall promptly provide to the Company in writing such additional information as the Company may request in order to determine the effect, if any, of such Beneficial Ownership on the Series’ qualification as a REIT and to ensure compliance with the Common Share Ownership Limit and the Aggregate Ownership Limit; and

(b)each Person who is a Beneficial Owner or Constructive Owner of Shares of such Series and each Person (including the Member of record) who is holding Shares of such Series for a Beneficial Owner or Constructive Owner shall promptly provide to the Company in writing such information as the Company may request, in good faith, in order to determine the Series’ qualification as a REIT and to comply with the requirements of any taxing authority or governmental authority or to determine such compliance.

Section 13.6.    Remedies Not Limited. Subject to Section 7.2, nothing contained in this Article XIII shall limit the authority of the Board of Directors to take such other action as it deems necessary or advisable to protect the Company and a Series and the interests of the Members associated with such Series in preserving such Series’ qualification as a REIT.

Section 13.7.    Ambiguity. In the case of an ambiguity in the application of any of the provisions of this Article XIII, the Board of Directors shall have the power to determine the application of the provisions of this Article XIII with respect to any situation based on the facts known to it. In the event Article XIII requires an action by the Board of Directors and this Agreement fails to provide specific guidance with respect to such action, the Board of Directors shall have the power to determine the action to be taken so long as such action is not contrary to the provisions of this Article XIII. Absent a decision to the contrary by the Board of Directors (which the Board may make in its sole and absolute discretion), if a Person would have (but for the remedies set forth in Section 13.3) acquired Beneficial Ownership or Constructive Ownership of Shares a Series in violation of Section 13.2, such remedies (as applicable) shall apply first to the Shares of such Series which, but for such remedies, would have been Beneficially Owned or Constructively Owned (but not actually owned) by such Person, pro rata among the Persons who actually own such Shares of such Series based upon the relative number of the Shares of such Series held by each such Person.
 
Section 13.8.    Exceptions.

(a)Subject to Section 13.2(a)(ii), the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may exempt (prospectively or retroactively) a Person from the Aggregate Ownership Limit and/or the Common Share Ownership Limit, as the case may be, and may establish or increase an Excepted Holder Limit for such Person if the Board of Directors determines, based on such representations and undertakings as it may require, that:

i.such exemption will not cause the Beneficial Ownership or Constructive Ownership of Shares of the applicable Series of any individual (as defined in Section 542(a)(2) of the Code as modified by Section 856(h)(3) of the Code) to violate Section 13.2(a)(ii); and

ii.such Person does not and will not Constructively own an interest in a tenant of such Series (or a tenant of any entity owned or controlled by such Series) that would cause such Series to own, actually or Constructively, more than a 9.9% interest (as set forth in Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code) in such tenant (for this purpose, a tenant from whom the Series (or an entity owned or controlled by the Series) derives (and is expected to continue to derive) a sufficiently small amount of revenue such that, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, rent from such tenant would not adversely affect the Series’ ability to qualify as a REIT shall not be treated as a tenant of the Series).

(b)Prior to granting any exception pursuant to Section 13.8(a), the Board of Directors may require a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, or an opinion of counsel, in either case in form and substance satisfactory to the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to determine or ensure a Series’ qualification as a REIT. Notwithstanding the receipt of any ruling or opinion, the Board of Directors may impose such conditions or restrictions as it deems appropriate in connection with granting such exception.

(c)Subject to Section 13.2(a)(iii), an underwriter which participates in a public offering or a private placement of Shares of a Series (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares of a Series) may Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Shares of such Series (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares of such Series) in excess of the Aggregate Ownership Limit, the Common Share Ownership Limit, or both such limits, but only to the extent necessary to facilitate such public offering or private placement.

(d)The Board of Directors may only reduce the Excepted Holder Limit for an Excepted Holder: (1) with the written consent of such Excepted Holder at any time, or (2) pursuant to the terms and conditions of the agreements and undertakings entered into with such Excepted Holder in connection with the establishment of the Excepted Holder Limit for that Excepted Holder. No Excepted Holder Limit shall be reduced to a percentage that is less than the Common Share Ownership Limit or Aggregate Ownership Limit, as applicable.

Section 13.9.    Increase or Decrease in Aggregate Ownership and Common Share Ownership Limits.
  
(a)Subject to Section 13.2(a)(ii), the Board of Directors may from time to time increase or decrease the Common Share Ownership Limit and the Aggregate Ownership Limit; provided, however, that any decreased Common Share Ownership Limit and/or Aggregate Ownership Limit will not be effective for any Person whose percentage ownership in Common Shares or Shares of the applicable Series is in excess of such decreased Common Share Ownership Limit and/or Aggregate Ownership Limit until such time as such Person’s percentage of Common Shares or Shares of such Series equals or falls below the decreased Common Share Ownership Limit and/or Aggregate Ownership Limit, but any further acquisition of Common Shares or Shares of such Series in excess of such percentage ownership of Common Shares or Shares of such Series will be in violation of the Common Share Ownership Limit and/or Aggregate Ownership Limit and, provided further, that any increased or decreased Common Share Ownership Limit and/or Aggregate Ownership Limit would not allow five or fewer Persons to Beneficially Own more than 49.9% in value of the outstanding Shares of such Series.

(b)Prior to increasing or decreasing the Common Share Ownership Limit or the Aggregate Ownership Limit pursuant to Section 13.9(a), the Board of Directors may require such opinions of counsel, affidavits, undertakings or agreements, in any case in form and substance satisfactory to the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to determine or ensure the applicable Series’ qualification as a REIT.

Section 13.10.    Legend. Each certificate for Shares of a Series, if certificated, or any written statement of information in lieu of a certificate delivered to a holder of uncertificated Shares of a Series shall bear substantially the following legend:

"The shares represented by this certificate are subject to restrictions on Beneficial Ownership and Constructive Ownership and Transfer for the purpose, among others, of the [Name] Series' maintenance of its qualification as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Subject to certain further restrictions and except as expressly provided in the Operating Agreement, (i) no Person may Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Common Shares in excess of 9.8 percent (in value or number of shares, whichever is more restrictive) of the outstanding Common Shares of the [Name] Series, unless such Person is exempt from such limitation or is an Excepted Holder (in which case the Excepted Holder Limit shall be applicable); (ii) no Person may Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Shares in excess of 9.8 percent (in value or number of shares, whichever is more restrictive) of the outstanding Shares of the [Name] Series, unless such Person is exempt from such limitation or is an Excepted Holder (in which case the Excepted Holder Limit shall be applicable); (iii) no Person may Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Shares that would result in the [Name] Series being "closely held" under Section 856(h) of the Code (without regard to whether the ownership interest is held during the last half of a taxable year), or otherwise cause the [Name] Series to fail to qualify as a REIT; and (iv) any Transfer of Shares of the [Name] Series that, if effective, would result in the Shares being beneficially owned by less than 100 Persons (as determined under the principles of Section 856(a)(5) of the Code) shall be void ab initio, and the intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such Shares.
Any Person who Beneficially Owns or Constructively Owns or attempts to Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Shares of the [Name] Series which causes or will cause a Person to Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Shares of the [Name] Series in excess or in violation of the above limitations must immediately notify the Company or, in the case of such a proposed or attempted transaction, give at least 15 days prior written notice. If any of the restrictions on transfer or ownership as set forth in (i) through (iii) above are violated, the Shares of the [Name] Series in excess or in violation of the above limitations will be automatically transferred to a Trustee of a Trust for the benefit of one or more Charitable Beneficiaries. In addition, the [Name] Series may redeem Shares upon the terms and conditions specified by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion if the Board of Directors determines that ownership or a Transfer or other event may violate the restrictions described above. Furthermore, upon the occurrence of certain events, attempted Transfers in violation of the restrictions described in (i) through (iii) above may be void ab initio. All capitalized terms in this legend have the meanings defined in the Operating Agreement, as the same may be amended from time to time, a copy of which, including the restrictions on transfer and ownership, will be furnished to each holder of Shares of the [Name] Series on request and without charge. Requests for such a copy may be directed to the Secretary of the Company at its principal office."
Instead of the foregoing legend, the certificate or written statement of information delivered in lieu of a certificate, if any, may state that the Company will furnish a full statement about certain restrictions on transferability to a Member on request and without charge.
Section 13.11.    Transfer of Shares in Trust.

(a)Ownership in Trust. Upon any purported Transfer or other event described in Section 13.2(b) that would result in a transfer of Shares of a Series to a Trust, such Shares of such Series shall be deemed to have been transferred to the Trustee as trustee of a Trust for the exclusive benefit of one or more Charitable Beneficiaries. Such transfer to the Trustee shall be effective as of the close of business on the Business Day prior to the purported Transfer or other event that results in the transfer to the Trust pursuant to Section 13.2(b). The Trustee shall be appointed by the Company and shall be a Person unaffiliated with the Company, any Series and any Prohibited Owner. Each Charitable Beneficiary shall be designated by the Company as provided in Section 13.11(f).

(b)Status of Shares Held by the Trustee. Shares of a Series held by the Trustee shall be issued and outstanding Shares of such Series. The Prohibited Owner shall have no rights in the shares held by the Trustee. The Prohibited Owner shall not benefit economically from ownership of any Shares held in trust by the Trustee, shall have no rights to distributions and shall not possess any rights to vote or other rights attributable to the Shares held in the Trust.

(c)Distribution and Voting Rights. The Trustee shall have all voting rights and rights to distributions with respect to Shares of a Series held in the Trust, which rights shall be exercised for the exclusive benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary. Any distribution paid prior to the discovery by the Company that the Shares of a Series have been transferred to the Trustee shall be paid by the recipient of such distribution to the Trustee upon demand and any distribution authorized but unpaid shall be paid when due to the Trustee. Any distribution so paid to the Trustee shall be held in trust for the Charitable Beneficiary. The Prohibited Owner shall have no voting rights with respect to Shares held in the Trust and, subject to Delaware law, effective as of the date that the Shares of a Series have been transferred to the Trust, the Trustee shall have the authority (at the Trustee’s sole discretion) (i) to rescind as void any vote cast by a Prohibited Owner prior to the discovery by the Company that the Shares of such Series have been transferred to the Trustee and (ii) to recast such vote in accordance with the desires of the Trustee acting for the benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary; provided, however, that if the Company has already taken irreversible limited liability company action, then the Trustee shall not have the authority to rescind and recast such vote. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article XIII, until the Company has received notification that Shares of a Series have been transferred into a Trust, the Company shall be entitled to rely on its share transfer and other Member records for purposes of preparing lists of Members entitled to vote at meetings, determining the validity and authority of proxies and otherwise conducting votes of Members.

(d)Sale of Shares by Trustee. Within 20 days of receiving notice from the Company that Shares of a Series have been transferred to the Trust, the Trustee of the Trust shall sell the Shares held in the Trust to a person, designated by the Trustee, whose ownership of the Shares will not violate the ownership limitations set forth in Section 13.2(a). Upon such sale, the interest of the Charitable Beneficiary in the Shares sold shall terminate and the Trustee shall distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the Prohibited Owner and to the Charitable Beneficiary as provided in this Section 13.11(d). The Prohibited Owner shall receive the lesser of (1) the price paid by the Prohibited Owner for the Shares or, if the event causing the Shares to be held in the Trust did not involve a purchase of such Shares at Market Price, the Market Price of the Shares on the day of the event causing the Shares to be held in the Trust and (2) the price per Share received by the Trustee (net of any commissions and other expenses of sale) from the sale or other disposition of the Shares held in the Trust. The Trustee may reduce the amount payable to the Prohibited Owner by the amount of distributions which have been paid to the Prohibited Owner and are owed by the Prohibited Owner to the Trustee pursuant to Section 13.11(c). Any net sales proceeds in excess of the amount payable to the Prohibited Owner shall be immediately paid to the Charitable Beneficiary. If, prior to the discovery by the Company that Shares of a Series have been transferred to the Trustee, such Shares are sold by a Prohibited Owner, then (i) such Shares shall be deemed to have been sold on behalf of the Trust and (ii) to the extent that the Prohibited Owner received an amount for such Shares that exceeds the amount that such Prohibited Owner was entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 13.11(d), such excess shall be paid to the Trustee upon demand.

(e)Purchase Right in Shares Transferred to the Trustee. Shares of a Series transferred to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been offered for sale to the Company, or its designee, at a price per Share equal to the lesser of (i) the price per Share in the transaction that resulted in such Transfer to the Trust (or, if the event that resulted in the Transfer to the Trust did not involve a purchase of such Shares at Market Price, the Market Price of such Shares on the day of the event that resulted in the Transfer of such Shares to the Trust) and (ii) the Market Price on the date the Company, or its designee, accepts such offer. The Company may reduce the amount payable to the Trustee by the amount of distributions which has been paid to the Prohibited Owner and are owed by the Prohibited Owner to the Trustee pursuant to Section 13.11(c) and may pay the amount of such reduction to the Trustee for the benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary. The Company shall have the right to accept such offer until the Trustee has sold the Shares held in the Trust pursuant to Section 13.11(d). Upon such a sale to the Company, the interest of the Charitable Beneficiary in the Shares sold shall terminate and the Trustee shall distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the Prohibited Owner.

(f)Designation of Charitable Beneficiaries. By written notice to the Trustee, the Company shall designate one or more nonprofit organizations to be the Charitable Beneficiary of the interest in the Trust such that the Shares of a Series held in the Trust would not violate the restrictions set forth in Section 13.2(a) in the hands of such Charitable Beneficiary. Neither the failure of the Company to make such designation nor the failure of the Company to appoint the Trustee before its automatic transfer provided for in Section 13.2(b) shall make such transfer ineffective, provided that the Company thereafter makes such designation and appointment.

Section 13.12.    NASDAQ Transactions. Nothing in this Article XIII shall preclude the settlement of any transaction entered into through the facilities of the NASDAQ or any other National Securities Exchange or automated inter-dealer quotation system. The fact that the settlement of any transaction occurs shall not negate the effect of any other provision of this Article XIII and any transferee in such a transaction shall be subject to all of the provisions and limitations set forth in this Article XIII.

Section 13.13.    Enforcement. The Company is authorized specifically to seek equitable relief, including injunctive relief, to enforce the provisions of this Article XIII.

Section 13.14.    Non-Waiver. No delay or failure on the part of the Company or the Board of Directors in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any right of the Company or the Board of Directors, as the case may be, except to the extent specifically waived in writing.

Section 13.15.    Severability. If any provision of this Article XIII or any application of any such provision is determined to be invalid by any federal or state court having jurisdiction over the issues, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected and other applications of such provisions shall be affected only to the extent necessary to comply with the determination of such court.

ARTICLE I

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.
"A-1 Series" has the meaning set forth in the preamble.
"Act" means the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act (6 Del. C. § 17 101 et seq.), as it may be amended from time to time, and any successor to such statute.
"Actions" has the meaning set forth in Section 7.07 hereof.
"Additional Funds" has the meaning set forth in Section 4.04(a) hereof.
"Additional Limited Partner" means a Person who is admitted to the Partnership as a Limited Partner pursuant to Section 4.03 and Section 12.02 hereof and who is shown as such on the books and records of the Partnership.
"Adjusted Capital Account" means the Capital Account maintained for each Partner as of the end of each Fiscal Year (a) increased by any amounts which such Partner is obligated to restore pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or 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) and (b) decreased by the items described in Regulations Sections 1.704‑1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704‑1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5) and 1.704‑1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6). The foregoing definition of Adjusted Capital Account is intended to comply with the provisions of Regulations Section 1.704‑1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
"Adjusted Capital Account Deficit" means, with respect to any Partner, the deficit balance, if any, in such Partner's Adjusted Capital Account as of the end of the relevant Partnership Year.
"Adjustment Factor" means 1.0; provided, however, that in the event that:
(a)
the Company (i) declares, pays or makes a distribution to all holders of its outstanding Series A-1 Common REIT Shares wholly or partly in Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, (ii) splits or subdivides its outstanding Series A-1 Common REIT Shares or (iii) effects a reverse share split or otherwise combines its outstanding Series A-1 Common REIT Shares into a smaller number of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, the Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted by multiplying the Adjustment Factor previously in effect by a fraction, (x) the numerator of which shall be the number of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares issued and outstanding on the record date for such distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination (assuming for such purposes that such distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination has occurred as of such time) and (y) the denominator of which shall be the actual number of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares (determined without the above assumption) issued and outstanding on the record date for such distribution, split, subdivision, reverse split or combination;

(b)
the Company distributes any rights, options or warrants to all holders of its Series A-1 Common REIT Shares to subscribe for or to purchase or to otherwise acquire Series A-1 Common REIT Shares (or other securities or rights convertible into, exchangeable for or exercisable for Series A-1 Common REIT Shares) at a price per share less than the Value of a Series A-1 Common 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 Series A-1 Common REIT Shares issued and outstanding on the record date plus the maximum number of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares purchasable under such Distributed Rights and (b) the denominator of which shall be the number of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares issued and outstanding on the record date plus a fraction (1) the numerator of which is the maximum number of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares purchasable under such Distributed Rights multiplied by the minimum purchase price per Series A-1 Common REIT Share under such Distributed Rights and (2) the denominator of which is the Value of a Series A-1 Common 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 Series A-1 Common REIT Shares or any change in the minimum purchase price for the purposes of the above fraction;

(c)

(e)Issuance of Securities by the Company. The Company shall not issue any additional Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, Preferred Shares, Junior Shares or New Securities unless the A-1 Series contributes directly or indirectly the cash proceeds or other consideration, if any, received from the issuance of such additional Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, Preferred Shares, Junior Shares or New Securities, as the case may be, and from the exercise of the rights contained in any such additional New Securities, to the Partnership in exchange for (i) in the case of an issuance of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, Partnership Units or (ii) in the case of an issuance of Preferred Shares, Junior 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, Junior Shares or New Securities; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may issue Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, Preferred Shares, Junior Shares or New Securities (A) pursuant to Section 4.05 or 8.06(b) hereof, (B) pursuant to a distribution (including any share split) wholly or partly of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, Preferred Shares, Junior Shares or New Securities to all of the holders of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, Preferred Shares, Junior Shares or New Securities, as the case may be, (C) upon a conversion, redemption or exchange of Preferred Shares, (D) upon a conversion of Junior Shares into Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, (E) upon a conversion, redemption, exchange or exercise of New Securities or, (F) pursuant to share grants or awards made pursuant to any Equity Incentive Plan of the Company. In the event of any issuance of additional Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, Preferred Shares, Junior Shares or New Securities by the Company, and the direct or indirect contribution to the Partnership, by the A-1 Series, of the cash proceeds or other consideration received from such issuance, if any, the Partnership shall pay the Company's and the A-1 Series' expenses associated with such issuance, including any underwriting discounts or commissions (it being understood that if the proceeds actually received by the Company are less than the gross proceeds of such issuance as a result of any underwriter's discount or other expenses paid or incurred by the Company and the A-1 Series in connection with such issuance, then the A-1 Series shall be deemed to have made a Capital Contribution to the Partnership in the amount of the gross proceeds of such issuance and the Partnership shall be deemed simultaneously to have reimbursed the Company or the A-1 Series, as applicable, pursuant to Section 7.04(b) for the amount of such underwriter's discount or other expenses)

(f)Approval Rights of the Fortis General Partner Relating to Issuance of Securities by the Partnership.

i.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the other provisions of this Article IV, prior to the Refinance Date, without the consent of the Fortis General Partner, the REIT General Partner shall not:

1.permit (x) the Partnership, the Property Owner or any other Subsidiary of the Partnership to issue any additional Partnership Units or other partnership, membership or beneficial ownership interests or any other securities convertible into or exercisable for Partnership Units, or (y) the Company to issue any Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, Preferred Shares, Junior Shares or New Securities, unless the Board of Directors, including a majority of its independent directors, has determined in good faith that it is necessary to issue Partnership Units (or other securities) to prevent an imminent foreclosure under the Existing Loan or foreclosure upon collateral pledged to secure the Existing Loan;

2.permit (x) the Partnership, the Property Owner or any other Subsidiary of the Partnership to issue any additional Partnership Units or other partnership, membership or beneficial ownership interests or any other securities convertible into or exercisable for Partnership Units, or (y) the Company to issue any Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, Preferred Shares, Junior Shares or New Securities to the extent that the issuance could cause a default under the Existing Loan; and

3.permit (x) the Partnership, the Property Owner or any other Subsidiary of the Partnership to issue any additional Partnership Units or other partnership, membership or beneficial ownership interests or any other securities convertible into or exercisable for Partnership Units, or (y) the Company to issue any Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, Preferred Shares, Junior Shares or New Securities to the extent that any such issuance could in any way reasonably be deemed to have the effect of diluting in a non-de minimis way (other than any "straight" dilution arising solely out of the change in relative ownership caused by the issuance of any such securities) the relative ownership of the Lincoln Street Holdings Limited Partner Group in the Partnership disproportionately in comparison to the other Holders of OP Units in the Partnership; or

ii.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the other provisions of this Article IV, on and after the Refinance Date, and prior to the Fortis Stepdown Date, without the consent of the Fortis General Partner, the REIT General Partner shall not permit (x) the Partnership, the Property Owner or any other Subsidiary of the Partnership to issue any additional Partnership Units or other partnership, membership or beneficial ownership interests or any other securities convertible into or exercisable for Partnership Units, or (y) the Company to issue any Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, Preferred Shares, Junior Shares or New Securities.

iii.Any issuance of securities that requires the Fortis General Partner's consent under Section 4.04(f)(i) or Section 4.04(f)(ii) above shall deemed to be an Approval Matter for purposes of Section 7.01(a)(iv). Accordingly, from and after the occurrence of the Refinance Date, if the REIT General Partner requests that the Fortis General Partner consent to any such issuance under Section 4.04(f)(ii) and the Fortis General Partner disagrees and declines to consent to such issuance, then the REIT General Partner shall promptly notify the Fortis General Partner and the REIT General Partner shall be authorized to present such issuance to the Property Oversight Committee for the final determination of whether the requested issuance is to be effected. Prior to the Refinance Date, the Fortis General Partner and the REIT General Partner may jointly agree to present any such issuance under Section 4.04(f)(i) to the Property Oversight Committee for the final determination of whether the issuance is to be effected.

iv.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 4.04(f)(i) or Section 4.04(f)(ii) above, (A) the REIT General Partner may cause the Partnership to issue Partnership Interests or any other securities under any Equity Incentive Plan, in accordance with Section 4.05 below, and the Company may issue securities under any Equity Incentive Plan, to the extent that the fair market value (measured as of the date of issuance) of the aggregate units of such interests or securities issued in any calendar year does not exceed thirty-three thousand dollars ($33,000.00) in the aggregate; (B) the REIT General Partner may cause the Partnership to issue Overallotment Units (but only to Lincoln Street Holdings), and the Company may issue Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, in connection with any exercise of the underwriters' overallotment option in the IPO, and the REIT General Partner may cause the Partnership to issue OP Units upon the conversion of such Overallotment Units (but only in accordance with the Partnership Unit Designation for the Overallotment Units); and (C) the Company may issue Series A-1 Common REIT Shares pursuant to Section 8.06(b) hereof. In the event of any exercise of the underwriters' overallotment option in the IPO, the Fortis General Partner shall prepare an amendment to the annual operating budget to address the application by the Partnership of any cash proceeds received (directly or indirectly) by the Partnership in connection with the issuance of Overallotment Units (which amendment shall be deemed to constitute a material change to the annual operating budget), and the Fortis General Partner shall submit such amendment to the REIT General Partner for its written consent pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(iv)(F); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the application of any such proceeds shall require the joint approval of the Fortis General Partner and the REIT General Partner (other than to the extent expressly provided for in the then approved annual operating budget).

v.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the other provisions of this Article IV, prior to the Fortis Stepdown Date, the REIT General Partner shall not permit the Partnership to incur any Partnership Debt unless approved by the Fortis General Partner and the REIT General Partner, or approved by the Property Oversight Committee, as provided in Section 7.01.

Section 4.05.    Equity Incentive Plan.

(a)Options Granted to Company Employees and Independent Directors. If at any time or from time to time, in connection with an Equity Incentive Plan, a share option granted to a Company Employee or Independent Director and associated with the A-1 Series is duly exercised:

i.the A-1 Series shall, as soon as practicable after such exercise, make or cause to be made directly or indirectly a Capital Contribution to the Partnership in an amount equal to the exercise price paid to the Company by such exercising party in connection with the exercise of such share option.

ii.Notwithstanding the amount of the Capital Contribution actually made pursuant to Section 4.05(a)(i) hereof, the A-1 Series shall be deemed to have contributed directly or indirectly to the Partnership, as a Capital Contribution, in consideration of an additional Limited Partner Interest (expressed in and as additional Partnership Units), an amount equal to the Value of a Series A-1 Common REIT Share as of the date of exercise multiplied by the number of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares then being issued in connection with the exercise of such share option.

iii.An equitable Percentage Interest adjustment shall be made in which the REIT General Partner shall be treated as having made a cash contribution equal to the amount described in Section 4.05(a)(ii) hereof.

(b)Special Valuation Rule. For purposes of this Section 4.05, in determining the Value of a Series A-1 Common REIT Share, only the trading date immediately preceding the exercise of the relevant share option under the Equity Incentive Plan shall be considered.

(c)Future Equity Incentive Plans. Subject in all events to the provisions of Section 7.01(a)(iv) hereof, nothing else in this Agreement shall be construed or applied to preclude or restrain the Company from adopting, modifying or terminating any Equity Incentive Plan, for the benefit of employees, directors or other business associates of the Company, the A-1 Series, the Partnership or any of their Affiliates. The Partners acknowledge and agree that, in the event that any such plan is adopted, modified or terminated by the Company, amendments to this Section 4.05 may become necessary or advisable and that any approval or consent of the Limited Partners required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement in order to effect any such amendments requested by the REIT General Partner shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Section 4.06.    No Interest; No Return. No Partner shall be entitled to interest on its Capital Contribution or on such Partner's Capital Account. Except as provided herein or by law, no Partner shall have any right to demand or receive the return of its Capital Contribution from the Partnership.

Section 4.07.    Other Contribution Provisions. In the event that any Partner is admitted to the Partnership and is given a Capital Account in exchange for services rendered to the Partnership, unless otherwise determined by the REIT General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion, such transaction shall be treated by the Partnership and the affected Partner as if the Partnership had compensated such partner in cash and such Partner had contributed the cash to the capital of the Partnership. In addition, with the consent of the REIT General Partner, one or more Limited Partners may enter into contribution agreements with the Partnership which have the effect of providing a guarantee of certain obligations of the Partnership.

Section 4.08.    Not Publicly Traded. The General Partners, on behalf of the Partnership, shall use their best efforts not to take any action which would result in the Partnership being a "publicly traded partnership" under and as such term is defined in Code Section 7704(b), and by reason thereof, taxable as a corporation.

Section 4.09.    No Third Party Beneficiary. No creditor or other third party having dealings with the Partnership shall have the right to enforce the right or obligation of any Partner to make Capital Contributions or loans or to pursue any other right or remedy hereunder or at law or in equity, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of this Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of, and may be enforced solely by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. None of the rights or obligations of the Partners herein set forth to make Capital Contributions or loans to the Partnership shall be deemed an asset of the Partnership for any purpose by any creditor or other third party, nor may such rights or obligations be sold, transferred or assigned by the Partnership or pledged or encumbered by the Partnership to secure any debt or other obligation of the Partnership or of any of the Partners. In addition, it is the intent of the parties hereto that no distribution to any Limited Partner shall be deemed a return of money or other property in violation of the Act. However, if any court of competent jurisdiction holds that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, any Limited Partner is obligated to return such money or property, such obligation shall be the obligation of such Limited Partner and not of the General Partners. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a deficit Capital Account of a Partner shall not be deemed to be a liability of such Partner nor an asset or property of the Partnership.

ARTICLE V

DISTRIBUTIONS

Section 5.01.    Requirement and Characterization of Distributions. Subject to the terms of any Partnership Unit Designation, the Partnership shall distribute at least quarterly all or such portion of amounts, at such times, as shall be determined in a manner consistent with the then approved annual operating budget, of Available Cash generated by the Partnership during such quarter to the Holders of Partnership Units on the Partnership Record Date with respect to such quarter: (a) first in respect of each class or series of issued and outstanding Preferred Units, if any, in accordance with the rights of such class(es) or series of Preferred Units (and, within such class(es) or series, pro rata in proportion to the respective Preferred Units on such Partnership Record Date); (b) second, in respect of any issued and outstanding OP Units held by the REIT General Partner or any Subsidiary of the A-1 Series, an amount equal to (i) the Series A-1 Common REIT Share Preference Amount in respect of any prior quarters and (ii) the Series A-1 Common REIT Share Preference Amount in respect of the current quarter (and between those OP units, pro rata in proportion to the relative number of those OP Units on the Partnership Record Date); (c) third, in respect of each issued and outstanding OP Unit other than those entitled to receive distributions pursuant to clause (b) above (and between those OP units, pro rata in proportion to the relative number of those OP Units on the Partnership Record Date), an amount equal to the distributions paid pursuant to clause (b)(ii) above in respect of such quarter to an OP Unit entitled to receive distributions pursuant to clause (b) above; and (d) thereafter, in respect of each issued and outstanding OP Unit, pro rata in proportion to the relative number of OP Units on the Partnership Record Date. Subject to the terms of any Partnership Unit Designation, in the event the Partnership does not distribute the Available Cash generated by the Partnership during a quarter in the manner required under this Section 5.01 (i.e., in a manner consistent with the then approved annual operating budget), then either the REIT General Partner or the Fortis General Partner may cause the Partnership to so distribute such Available Cash to the Holders of Partnership Units on the Partnership Record Date with respect to such quarter, but solely in a manner consistent with the then approved annual operating budget.

Subject to the terms of any Partnership Unit Designation, the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner may, in their sole and absolute discretion, jointly cause the Partnership to distribute amounts in excess of the Available Cash generated by the Partnership during a quarter in accordance with the foregoing paragraph.

In addition, subject to the terms of any Partnership Unit Designation, after the Redemption Right Date, the Fortis General A-1 Partner will have the right, as determined by it in its sole and absolute discretion, to cause the Partnership to distribute to the Holders of Partnership Units on the Special Partnership Record Date, a special distribution of any Remaining Overallotment Proceeds: (a) first in respect of each class or series of issued and outstanding Preferred Units, if any, in accordance with the rights of such class(es) or series of Preferred Units (and, within such class(es) or series, pro rata in proportion to the respective Preferred Units on such Special Partnership Record Date); and (b) thereafter, in respect of each issued and outstanding OP Unit, pro rata in proportion to the relative number of OP Units on the Partnership Record Date; provided that (i) the Remaining Overallotment Proceeds are not committed to be applied under the then approved annual operating budget and (ii) any such special distribution could not adversely affect the ability of the A-1 Series' qualify as a REIT under the Code and Regulations (the "REIT Requirements").
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the REIT General Partner shall make such reasonable efforts, as determined by it in its sole and absolute discretion and consistent with the A-1 Series' qualification as a REIT, to cause the Partnership to distribute sufficient amounts to enable the Company to pay A-1 Series member distributions that will (i) satisfy the requirements for the A-1 Series' qualification as a REIT under the REIT Requirements and (ii) except to the extent otherwise determined by the REIT General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, avoid any federal income or excise tax liability of the A-1 Series.
Section 5.02.    Distributions In Kind. No right is given to any Partner to demand and receive property other than cash as provided in this Agreement. The REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner may determine to make a distribution in kind of Partnership assets to the Holders, and such assets shall be distributed in such a fashion as to ensure that the fair market value is distributed and allocated in accordance with Articles V, VI and X hereof.

Section 5.03.    Amounts Withheld. All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any state or local tax law and Section 10.04 hereof with respect to any allocation, payment or distribution to any Holder shall be treated as amounts paid or distributed to such Holder pursuant to Section 5.01 hereof for all purposes under this Agreement.

Section 5.04.    Distributions Upon Liquidation. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article V, 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 Holders in accordance with Section 13.02 hereof.

Section 5.05.    Distributions to Reflect Issuance of Additional Partnership Units. In the event that the Partnership issues additional Partnership Units pursuant to the provisions of Article IV hereof, the REIT General Partner is hereby authorized to make such revisions to this Article V as it determines are necessary or desirable to reflect the issuance of such additional Partnership Units, including, without limitation, making preferential distributions to certain classes of Partnership Units.

Section 5.06.    Restricted Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither the Partnership and neither the REIT General Partner nor the Fortis General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, shall make a distribution to any Holder 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 VI

ALLOCATIONS

Section 6.01.    Timing and Amount of Allocations of Net Income and Net Loss. Net Income and Net Loss of the Partnership shall be determined and allocated with respect to each Partnership Year of the Partnership as of the end of each such year. Except as otherwise provided in this Article VI, and subject to Section 11.06(c) hereof, an allocation to a Holder 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 6.02.    General Allocations.

(a)Allocations of Net Income and Net Loss.

i.Net Income. Except as otherwise provided herein, Net Income for any Partnership Year or other applicable period shall be allocated in the following order and priority:

1.First, to the Partners holding OP Units to the extent the cumulative Net Loss allocated to such holders pursuant to subparagraph (ii)(D) below exceeds the cumulative Net Income allocated to such holders pursuant to this subparagraph (i)(A) (and, among such holders, pro rata in proportion to the respective Percentage Interests as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is made);

2.Second, to the holders of any Partnership Interests that are entitled to any preference in distribution upon liquidation until the cumulative Net Income allocated under this subparagraph (B) equals the cumulative Net Loss allocated to such Partners under subparagraph (ii)(C);

3.Third, to the holders of any Partnership Units that are entitled to any preference in distribution in accordance with the rights of any other class of Partnership Units (for the avoidance of doubt, the Series A-1 Common REIT Share Preference Amount does not constitute a preference in distribution for the purposes of this clause (C)) until each such Partnership Unit has been allocated, on a cumulative basis pursuant to this subparagraph (i)(C)), Net Income equal to the amount of all accrued amounts which are attributable to the preference of such class of Partnership Unit (and, within such class, pro rata in proportion to the respective Percentage Interests as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is made);

4.Fourth, to the REIT General Partner and any Subsidiary of the A-1 Series to the extent that the REIT General Partner and such Subsidiaries have received distributions equal to the Series A-1 Common REIT Share Preference Amount;

5.Fifth, to the holders of OP Units to the extent they have received distributions pursuant to clause (3) of Section 5.01.

6.Thereafter, with respect to Partnership Units that are not entitled to any preference in distribution or with respect to which distributions are not limited to any preference in distribution (for the avoidance of doubt, the Series A-1 Common REIT Share Preference Amount does not constitute a preference in distribution for the purposes of this clause (F)), pro rata to each such class in accordance with the terms of such class (and, within such class, pro rata in proportion to the respective Percentage Interests as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is being made).

ii.Net Loss. Except as otherwise provided herein, Net Loss for any Partnership Year or other applicable period shall be allocated in the following order and priority:

1.First, to each holder of Partnership Units in proportion to and to the extent of the amount by which the cumulative Net Income allocated to such Partner pursuant to subparagraph (i)(F) above exceeds, on a cumulative basis, the sum of (1) distributions with respect to such holder's Partnership Units pursuant to clauses (4), (3), and (2) (in the reverse order of the distribution priorities set forth in Section 5.01) of Section 5.01 and (2) Net Loss allocated to such Partner pursuant to this subparagraph (ii)(A);

2.Second, with respect to classes of Partnership Units that are not entitled to any preference in distribution or with respect to which distributions are not limited to any preference in distribution (for the avoidance of doubt, the Series A-1 Common REIT Share Preference Amount does not constitute a preference in distribution for the purposes of this clause (B)), pro rata to each such class in accordance with the terms of such class (and within such class, pro rata in proportion to the respective Percentage Interests as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is being made); provided, that Net Loss shall not be allocated to any Partner pursuant to this subparagraph (ii)(B) to the extent that such allocation would cause such Partner to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit (or increase any existing Adjusted Capital Account Deficit) (determined in each case (1) with respect to a Partner who also holds classes of Partnership Units that are entitled to any preferences in distribution upon liquidation, by subtracting from such Partners' Adjusted Capital Account the amount of such preferred distribution to be made upon liquidation and (2) by not including in the Partners' Adjusted Capital Accounts any amount that a Partner is obligated to contribute to the Partnership with respect to any deficit in its Capital Account pursuant to Section 13.02(d)) at the end of such Partnership Year or other applicable period;

3.Third, with respect to classes of Partnership Units that are entitled to any preference in distribution upon liquidation (for the avoidance of doubt, the Series A-1 Common REIT Share Preference Amount does not constitute a preference in distribution for the purposes of this clause (C)), in reverse order of the priorities of each such class (and within each such class, pro rata in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is being made); provided, that Net Loss shall not be allocated to any Partner pursuant to this subparagraph (ii)(C) to the extent that such allocation would cause such Partner to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit (or increase any existing Adjusted Capital Account Deficit) (determined in each case by not including in the Partners' Adjusted Capital Accounts any amount that a Partner is obligated to contribute to the Partnership with respect to any deficit in its Capital Account pursuant to Section 13.02(d)) at the end of such Partnership Year or other applicable period; and

4.Thereafter, to the Partners holding OP Units, pro rata in proportion to the relative number of OP Units held by such Partners as of such date.

(b)Allocations to Reflect Issuance of Additional Partnership Units. Subject in all events to the terms of Section 7.03(h) below, in the event that the Partnership issues additional Partnership Units pursuant to the provisions of Article IV hereof, the REIT General Partner is hereby authorized to make such revisions to this Section 6.02 as it determines are necessary or desirable to reflect the terms of the issuance of such additional Partnership Units.

Section 6.03.    Additional Allocation Provisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article VI:

(a)Regulatory Allocations.

i.Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704‑2(f), notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.02 hereof, or any other provision of this Article VI, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Partnership Year, each Holder 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 6.03(a)(i) 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.

ii.Partner Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704‑2(i)(4) or in Section 6.03(a)(i) hereof, if there is a net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any Partnership Year, each Holder who has a share of the Partner Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704‑2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Holder's share of the net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704‑2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to the Partners and other Holders 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 6.03(a)(ii) 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.

iii.Nonrecourse Deductions and Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Nonrecourse Deductions for any Partnership Year shall be specially allocated to the Holders of OP Units in accordance with their OP Units. Any Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any Partnership 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).

iv.Qualified Income Offset. If any Holder unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Regulations Section 1.704‑1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5), or (6), items of Partnership income and gain shall be allocated, in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704‑1(b)(2)(ii)(d), to 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. It is intended that this Section 6.03(a)(iv) 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.

v.Gross Income Allocation. In the event that any Holder has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any Partnership Year, 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.

vi.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 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 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.

vii.Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in Sections 6.03(a)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), and (vi) 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 6.01 hereof, the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the Holders of Partnership 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 Unit shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Holder if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.

(b)Allocation of Excess Nonrecourse Liabilities. The Partnership shall allocate "nonrecourse liabilities" (within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752‑1(a)(2)) of the Partnership that are secured by multiple Properties under any reasonable method chosen by the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner in accordance with Regulations Section 1.752‑3(a)(3) and (b). The Partnership shall allocate "excess nonrecourse liabilities" of the Partnership under a method approved under Regulations Section 1.752‑3(a)(3) as chosen by the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner.

Section 6.04.    Tax Allocations.

(a)In General. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.04, 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 Units in the same manner as its correlative item of "book" income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated pursuant to Sections 6.02 and 6.03 hereof.

(b)Allocations Respecting Section 704(c) Revaluations. Notwithstanding Section 6.04(a) 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 Partnership 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 REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner or as otherwise agreed by the REIT General Partner, the Fortis General Partner and such contributing partner; provided that the Fortis General Partner shall be entitled to designate the Code Section 704(c) method applicable to the Real Property. 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 I 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 or under any method approved under Code Section 704(c) and the applicable Regulations as chosen by the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner.

ARTICLE VII

MANAGEMENT AND OPERATIONS OF BUSINESS

Section 7.01.    Management.

(a)Management.

i.Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all management powers over the business and affairs of the Partnership are and shall be exclusively vested in the General Partners as described in this Agreement, and no Limited Partner shall have any right to participate in or exercise control or management power over the business and affairs of the Partnership; provided that the General Partners shall not cause the Partnership or any Subsidiary to take any action (or fail to take any required action) that could adversely affect the ability of the A-1 Series to qualify as a REIT or that could subject the A-1 Series to any additional taxes under Code Section 857 or Code Section 4981 or any other related or successor provision of the Code (so long as the A-1 Series desires to maintain its qualification as a REIT).

ii.The REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner hereby agree that, until the occurrence of the Fortis Stepdown Date, the Fortis General Partner shall have the sole power and authority to manage the day to day business, affairs and operations of the Partnership, its Subsidiaries and the Real Property.

24.Changing the name of the Partnership; and

25.Making material tax elections or decisions on behalf of the Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries.

v.From and after the occurrence of the Refinance Date, if the REIT General Partner requests that the Fortis General Partner take, cause or consent to an action that is an Approval Matter (including any issuance of securities that is deemed to be an Approval Matter pursuant to Section 4.04(f)) and the Fortis General Partner disagrees and declines to take, cause or consent to such action (or if the Fortis General Partner requests that the REIT General Partner consent to an action that is an Approval Matter and the REIT General Partner disagrees and declines to consent to such action), then either General Partner shall promptly notify the other General Partner and either General Partner shall be authorized to present such action to the Property Oversight Committee for the final determination of whether the requested action is to be taken. Prior to the Refinance Date, the Fortis General Partner and the REIT General Partner may jointly agree to present an action that is an Approval Matter (including any issuance of securities that is deemed to be an Approval Matter pursuant to Section 4.04(f)) to the Property Oversight Committee for the final determination of whether the action is to be taken; provided, however, that, prior to the Refinance Date, if the Fortis General Partner requests that the REIT General Partner consent to an action that is an Approval Matter and the REIT General Partner disagrees and declines to consent to such action, then the Fortis General Partner shall promptly notify the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner shall be authorized to present such action to the Property Oversight Committee for the final determination of whether the requested action is to be taken. Prior to the Fortis Stepdown Date, the Property Oversight Committee shall have the authority to make the final determination as to whether a presented action that is an Approval Matter (including any issuance of securities that is deemed to be an Approval Matter pursuant to Section 4.04(f)) shall be taken and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Property Oversight Committee approves any such action, each of the Fortis General Partner and the REIT General Partner shall have the authority to unilaterally take such action.

vi.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the Refinance Date, in the event that (1) the REIT General Partner elects to cause the Partnership to refinance the Existing Loan (whether through a third-party mortgage financing transaction or through a Company-level securities issuance or financing), (2) it has been determined in good faith by action of the Board of Directors, including by a majority of its independent directors, that refinancing the Existing Loan is necessary to prevent an imminent foreclosure under the Existing Loan or foreclosure upon collateral pledged to secure the Existing Loan, and (3) the Fortis General Partner does not consent to such proposed transaction by the REIT General Partner, then the REIT General Partner shall be authorized to present such refinancing decision to the Property Oversight Committee for the final determination of whether the requested action is to be taken.

(b)In exercising their authority under this Agreement, the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner may, but shall be under no obligation to, take into account the tax consequences to any Partner (including the General Partners) of any action taken (or not taken) by it. Except as may be provided in a written agreement between the Partnership and the Limited Partners, the REIT General Partner, the Fortis 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 either the REIT General Partner or the Fortis General Partner pursuant to its authority under this Agreement provided, that such General Partners has acted in good faith and pursuant to its authority under this Agreement.

(c)On and after the Fortis Stepdown Date, the Fortis General Partner shall cease to be a General Partner, and all management and control power shall vest in the REIT General Partner, including over matters that are specified to be taken by the REIT General Partner, the Fortis General Partner or the General Partners under this Agreement.

(d)Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) the Fortis General Partner shall not be entitled to receive any allocations of profits or losses of the Partnership or items of Partnership income, gain, loss deduction or credit or any distributions from the Partnership, (ii) the Fortis General Partner shall have no economic interest in the Partnership as permitted by Section 17-401(a) of the Act and (iii) the Fortis General Partner shall not be a partner in the Partnership for federal, state or local income tax purposes.

Section 7.02.    Certificate of Limited Partnership. To the extent that such action is determined by the General Partners to be reasonable and necessary or appropriate, the General Partners 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. Except as otherwise required under the Act, the General Partners 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 Partners shall use all reasonable efforts to cause to be 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 7.03.    Restrictions on General Partners' Authority.

(a)The General Partners may not take any action in contravention of an express prohibition or limitation of this Agreement, and may not perform any act that would subject a Limited Partner to liability as a general partner in any jurisdiction or any other liability except as provided herein or under the Act.

(c)Notwithstanding anything in Section 4.03 and Section 4.04 to the contrary, prior to the occurrence of the Refinance Date:

i.without the prior written consent of the Fortis General Partner, neither the Partnership, the Property Owner, the A-1 Series or any Subsidiary thereof nor the REIT General Partner shall take or omit to take any action that could reasonably be expected to cause any Existing Loan Guarantors to incur any actual liability in respect of the Existing Loan Guaranty.

ii.the REIT General Partner shall not be authorized to take any action without the prior consent of the Fortis General Partner if such action could be a matter listed in clauses (a) through (h) or the second paragraph of section 1.2 of the Guaranty, dated December 27, 2006 by Margaret Kestenbaum and Joel Kestenbaum (each individually, an "Existing Loan Guarantor" and, collectively, the "Existing Loan Guarantors") for the benefit of Wachovia Bank, National Association and UBS Real Estate Investments, Inc. entered into in connection with the Existing Loan (the "Existing Loan Guaranty").

(d)For so long as the OP Units issued to the Lincoln Street Holdings Limited Partner Group as of the date hereof remain outstanding and are held by Persons other than the REIT General Partner and its Affiliates, the holders of such OP Units (the "Voting Units") shall have the right to vote (as provided below) on a sale or other disposition in a transaction or series of related transactions of all or substantially all the A-1 Series' interest in the Partnership or the Partnership's interest in the Real Property (a "Significant Transaction") if the holders of the Series A-1 Common REIT Shares vote on such transaction. In the event of any such vote, the A-1 Series and/or the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner shall not undertake the transaction in question unless the Company and the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner shall have received (from the holders of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares and the holders of Voting Units, all of which Series A-1 Common REIT Shares and Voting Units shall be deemed for purposes of this Section 7.03(d) to be voting as one class) a number of affirmative votes that is equal to or greater than the number that is obtained by adding:

i.the minimum number of affirmative votes of the holders of the Series A-1 Common REIT Shares required under the LLC Agreement and the Bylaws or by law, plus

ii.(x) at any time during the Less Than Majority Period, the number that is equal to the Applicable Percentage of the aggregate number of votes of the holders of such then outstanding Voting Units, and (y) at any time following the Less Than Majority Period, the number that is equal to a majority of the aggregate number of votes of the holders of such then outstanding Voting Units.

For the purpose of the vote described in the preceding sentence, each such Voting Unit shall have one vote for each Series A-1 Common REIT Share deliverable by the A-1 Series in respect of such Voting Unit upon an exercise of the A-1 Series' right to acquire such Voting Units in exchange for Series A-1 Common REIT Shares pursuant to Section 8.06(b) hereof and votes shall be tallied by treating the holders of Voting Units and the holders of Series A-1 Common REIT Share as a single class.
(e)Notwithstanding Section 14.02, the REIT General Partner shall have the exclusive power, without the prior consent of the other Partners, to amend this Agreement as may be required to facilitate or implement any of the following purposes:

i.to add to the obligations of the REIT General Partner or surrender any right or power granted to the REIT General Partner or any Affiliate of the REIT General Partner for the benefit of the Limited Partners;

iii.to set forth the designations, rights, powers, duties and preferences of holders of any additional partnership units; but only to the extent issued pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;

iv.(a) to reflect such changes as are reasonably necessary for the A-1 Series to maintain or restore its qualification as a REIT or to satisfy the REIT Requirements; or (b) to reflect the Transfer of all or any part of a Partnership Interest among the REIT General Partner and any Qualified REIT Subsidiary;

v.to issue additional Partnership Interests in accordance with, and to the extent permitted under, Article IV;

vi.to change the name of the Partnership at any time and from time to time in accordance with, and to the extent permitted under, Section 2.02 and Section 7.01(iv);

viii.pursuant to Section 3.02(c).

Notwithstanding Section 14.02, the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner, jointly, shall have the exclusive power, without the prior consent of the other Partners, to amend this Agreement as may be required (A) 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; and (B) to reflect a change that is of an inconsequential nature or does not adversely affect the Limited Partners in any material respect, or to cure any ambiguity, correct or supplement any provision in this Agreement not inconsistent with law or with other provisions, or make other changes with respect to matters arising under this Agreement that will not be inconsistent with law or with the provisions of this Agreement.
The REIT General Partner will provide notice to the other Partners whenever any action under this Section 7.03(e) is taken.
(f)Notwithstanding Sections 7.03(b) and 7.03(e) hereof, this Agreement shall not be amended, and no action may be taken by the REIT General Partner or the Fortis General Partner, without the consent of each Partner adversely affected thereby, 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 REIT General Partner acquiring such Partnership Interest), or (ii) modify the limited liability of a Limited Partner, or (iii) amend this Section 7.03(f).

(g)Notwithstanding Sections 7.03(b) and 7.03(e) hereof, except as provided in Section 3.02(c), this Agreement shall not be amended, and no action may be taken by the REIT General Partner or the Fortis General Partner, without the written consent of a Majority in Interest of the Outside Limited Partners, if such amendment or action would (i) alter or modify the Redemption rights or Series A-1 Common REIT Shares Amount as set forth in Section 8.06 hereof, or amend or modify any related definitions or (ii) amend this Section 7.03(g).

(h)Except to the extent required to reflect the distribution rights or priorities of Additional Limited Partners receiving additional Partnership Interests in the manner permitted under this Agreement (and the designation of any distribution preferences or priorities with respect to any such Additional Limited Partners and/or Partnership Interests and/or the Partnership Interests held by existing Partners) or except as provided in Section 3.02(c), without the written consent of a Majority in Interest of the Outside Limited Partners, the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner shall not have the right (i) to amend this Agreement in order to alter (A) the manner in which Net Income and Net Loss are allocated, or (B) the manner in which "excess nonrecourse liabilities" of the Partnership are allocated, in each case, if any such amendment or modification could reasonably be deemed to have a non-de minimis adverse effect on the Lincoln Street Holdings Limited Partner Group, or (ii) to amend this Section 7.03(h).

Section 7.04.    Reimbursement of the General Partners and the Company

(a)Except as provided in this Section 7.04 and elsewhere in this Agreement (including the provisions of Articles V and VI regarding distributions, payments and allocations to which it may be entitled), neither the REIT General Partner nor the Fortis General Partner shall be compensated for its services as general partner of the Partnership.

(b)The Partnership shall be responsible for and shall pay all expenses relating to the Partnership's and the A-1 Series' ownership of their assets and their operations to the extent such expenses are not otherwise the responsibility of ETRE Asset Management, LLC pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement. The General Partners and/or the A-1 Series are hereby authorized to pay compensation for budgeted accounting, administrative, legal, technical, management and other services rendered to the Partnership. Except to the extent provided in this Agreement, the General Partners and the A-1 Series shall be reimbursed on a monthly basis, or such other basis as the General Partners may determine in their sole and absolute discretion, for all budgeted third-party expenses that the General Partners and the A-1 Series incur relating to its ownership and/or operation of, or for the benefit of, the Partnership (including, without limitation, administrative expenses). Such reimbursement shall be in addition to any reimbursement made as a result of indemnification pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof. The Partners acknowledge that all such budgeted reimbursable expenses of the General Partners and the A-1 Series are deemed to be for the benefit of the Partnership and will be allocated to the Partnership and other entities in such a manner as the General Partners in their sole and absolute discretion deem fair and reasonable. All payments and reimbursements hereunder shall be characterized for federal income tax purposes as expenses of the Partnership incurred on its behalf, and not as expenses of a General Partner and/or the A-1 Series.

(c)From and after the Redemption Right Date, if the Company, on behalf of or in relation to, the A-1 Series shall elect to purchase from its members or interestholders Series A-1 Common REIT Shares for the purpose of delivering such Series A-1 Common REIT Shares to satisfy an obligation under any distribution reinvestment program adopted by the Company, any employee share purchase plan adopted by the Company and/or the A-1 Series or any similar obligation or arrangement undertaken by the Company and/or the A-1 Series in the future or for the purpose of retiring such Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, the purchase price paid by the Company or the A-1 Series for such Series A-1 Common REIT Shares and any other expenses incurred by the Company or the A-1 Series in connection with such purchase shall be considered expenses of the Partnership and shall be advanced to the A-1 Series or reimbursed to the A-1 Series, subject to the condition that: (A) if such Series A-1 Common REIT Shares subsequently are sold by the Company or the A-1 Series, the A-1 Series, shall pay or cause to be paid to the Partnership any proceeds received by the Company or the A-1 Series for such Series A-1 Common REIT Shares (which sales proceeds shall include the amount of distributions reinvested under any distribution reinvestment or similar program; provided, that a transfer of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares for Partnership Units pursuant to Section 8.06 would not be considered a sale for such purposes); and (B) if such Series A-1 Common REIT Shares are not retransferred by the Company or the A-1 Series within thirty (30) days after the purchase thereof, or the A-1 Series otherwise determines not to retransfer such Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, the A-1 Series shall cause the Partnership to redeem a number of Partnership Units held by the A-1 Series equal to the number of such Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, as adjusted for share distributions, share splits and subdivisions, reverse share splits and combinations, distributions of rights, warrants or options, and distributions of evidences of indebtedness or assets relating to assets not received by the REIT General Partner pursuant to a pro rata distribution by the Partnership (in which case such advancement or reimbursement of expenses shall be treated as having been made as a distribution in redemption of such number of Partnership Units held by the REIT General Partner).

(d)As set forth in Section 4.04, the REIT General Partner shall be treated as having made a Capital Contribution in the amount of all expenses that the Company, the A-1 Series and the REIT General Partner incur relating to the Company's offering of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, Preferred Shares, Junior Shares or New Securities.

(e)If and to the extent any reimbursements to the REIT General Partner pursuant to this Section 7.04 constitute gross income of the REIT General Partner (as opposed to the repayment of advances made by the REIT General Partner on behalf of the Partnership), such amounts shall constitute guaranteed payments with respect to capital within the meaning of Code Section 707(c), shall be treated consistently therewith by the Partnership and all Partners, and shall not be treated as distributions for purposes of computing the Partners' Capital Accounts.

Section 7.05.    Outside Activities of Certain Affiliates of the General Partners. Without limiting the other powers granted to the General Partners under this Agreement, but subject to any other agreements entered into by an "Identified Person" or its Affiliates, the officers, directors, employees, agents, managers, Affiliates and members of each General Partner (each, an "Identified Person" and, collectively, the "Identified Persons") shall be entitled to and may have business interests and engage in business activities in addition to those relating to the Partnership, including business interests and activities that are in direct or indirect competition with the Partnership or that are enhanced by the activities of the Partnership or that provide services or assistance to Persons that are in direct or indirect competition with the Partnership. Neither the Partnership nor any Partner shall have any rights by virtue of this Agreement in any business ventures of the REIT General Partner's Identified Persons or the Fortis General Partner's Identified Persons. None of the Identified Persons shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have any duty to refrain from directly or indirectly (a) engaging in the same or similar business activities or lines of business in which the Partnership or any of its Affiliates now engages or proposes to engage or (b) otherwise competing with the Partnership or any of its Affiliates, and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no Identified Person shall be liable to the Partnership or its Partners or to any Affiliate of the Partnership for breach of any fiduciary duty solely by reason of the fact that such Identified Person engages in any such activities. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Partnership hereby renounces any interest or expectancy in, or right to be offered an opportunity to participate in, any business opportunity (which, for purposes of this Section 7.05, includes any investment or business opportunity or potential transaction or matter, including without limitation those that might be the same as or similar to the Partnership's or its Affiliates' business or activities) which may be a corporate opportunity for the Partnership or any of its Affiliates. In the event that any Identified Person acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or other business opportunity which may be a corporate opportunity for the Partnership or any of its Affiliates, such Identified Person shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have no duty to communicate or offer such transaction or other business opportunity to the Partnership or any of its Affiliates and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall not be liable to the Partnership or its Partners or interestholders or to any Affiliate of the Partnership for breach of any fiduciary duty as a equityholder, general partner or officer of the Partnership solely by reason of the fact that such Identified Person pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, herself or himself, or offers or directs such corporate opportunity to another Person. For the avoidance of doubt, the REIT General Partner is not an "Identified Person" and the REIT General Partner shall therefore not be afforded the protections of this Section 7.05.

Section 7.06.    Contracts with Affiliates.

(a)Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01(a)(iv), 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 Partners. The foregoing authority shall not create any right or benefit in favor of any Subsidiary or any other Person.

(b)Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01(a)(iv), 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 Partners, in their sole and absolute discretion, believe to be advisable.

Section 7.07.    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 (whether 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 fraud, gross negligence, intentional misconduct, a knowing violation of the law, or a violation of the terms of this Agreement, (ii) for any transaction for which such Indemnitee received an improper personal benefit in violation or breach of any provision of this Agreement, or (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. Without limitation, the foregoing indemnity shall extend to any liability of any Indemnitee, pursuant to a loan guaranty or otherwise, for any indebtedness of the Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Partnership (including, without limitation, any indebtedness which the Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Partnership has assumed or taken subject to), and the General Partners are hereby authorized and empowered, on behalf of the Partnership, to enter into one or more indemnity agreements consistent with the provisions of this Section 7.07 in favor of any Indemnitee having or potentially having liability for any such indebtedness. The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order or settlement does not create a presumption that the Indemnitee did not meet the requisite standard of conduct set forth in this Section 7.07(a). 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 7.07(a) with respect to the subject matter of such proceeding. Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.07 shall be made only out of the assets of the Partnership and any insurance proceeds from the liability policy covering the General Partners and any Indemnitees, and none of the REIT General Partner, the Fortis General Partner, or 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 7.07.

(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 7.07(b) has been met and (ii) a written undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee (provided that if the Indemnitee is not reasonably determined to be a creditworthy person, then such undertaking shall be secured by an undertaking of a creditworthy Affiliate of such 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 7.07 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.

(d)The Partnership shall purchase and maintain insurance, on behalf of any of the Indemnitees and such other Persons as the General Partners 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, the REIT General Partner, the A-1 Series or the Company (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 7.07, unless such liabilities arise as a result of (i) such Indemnitee's intentional misconduct or knowing violation of the law, (ii) any transaction in which such Indemnitee received a personal benefit in violation or breach of any provision of this Agreement or applicable law, or (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful.

(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 7.07 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 7.07 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 7.07 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the obligations of the Partnership or the limitations on the Partnership's liability to any Indemnitee under this Section 7.07 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.

(i)If and to the extent any payments to the REIT General Partner pursuant to this Section 7.07 constitute gross income to the REIT General Partner (as opposed to the repayment of advances made on behalf of the Partnership) such amounts shall be treated as "guaranteed payments" for the use of capital within the meaning of Code Section 707(c), shall be treated consistently therewith by the Partnership and all Partners, and shall not be treated as distributions for purposes of computing the Partners' Capital Accounts.

Section 7.08.    Liability of the General Partners.

(b)In general, each of the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner shall consider the interests of the other Partners in deciding whether to cause the Partnership to take (or decline to take) any actions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Limited Partners expressly acknowledge that the REIT General Partner is acting for the benefit of the Partnership, the Limited Partners and the Company's members associated with the A-1 Series collectively and that the REIT General Partner is under no obligation to give parity or priority to the separate interests of the Limited Partners over the interests of the REIT General Partner and its Subsidiaries or the Company's members associated with the A-1 Series (including, without limitation, the tax consequences to Limited Partners, Assignees or the Company's members associated with the A-1 Series) in deciding whether to cause the Partnership to take (or decline to take) any actions. Furthermore, the Limited Partners expressly acknowledge that, (i) if there is a conflict or inconsistency between the interests of the members of the Company associated with the A-1 Series on one hand and the Limited Partners on the other, the REIT General Partner will be free to act solely in the best interests of the members of the Company associated with the A-1 Series, and (ii) if there is a conflict or inconsistency between the interests of the Lincoln Street Holdings Limited Partner Group on one hand and the other Partners on the other, the Fortis General Partner will be free to act solely in the best interests of the members of the Lincoln Street Holdings Limited Partner Group.

In any case where a General Partner is authorized or required to take or omit an action, make any decision, determination or valuation or grant or withhold any approval, consent or waiver: (i) it may do so (or not do so) in its sole and absolute discretion or judgment; (ii) it shall be entitled to (but not required to) take into account any considerations, interests or factors it deems appropriate or desirable, including its own interests and interests of its Affiliates; and (iii) when doing so, it shall not be subject to any duties or standards (including fiduciary or similar duties or standards) existing under the Act (or in equity).

(c)Subject to its obligations and duties as a General Partner set forth in Section 7.01(a) hereof, a 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). A 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)To the extent that, at law or in equity, a 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.

(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, manager or member of the a General Partner shall be liable to the Partnership for money damages except for (i) active and deliberate dishonesty established by a nonappealable 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, knowing violation of law or a violation of this Agreement, or pursuant to any such express indemnity, no property or assets of a General 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. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no officer, manager or member of any Limited Partner shall be liable to the Partnership for money damages. Without limitation of the foregoing, no property or assets of any Limited 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 a representative of each General Partner solely as a representative of the same and not in its own individual capacities.

(f)Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.08 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on a General Partner's, and its officers' and members', liability to the Partnership and the Limited Partners under this Section 7.08 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.

The Tendering Partner shall have no right, with respect to any OP Units so redeemed, to receive any distributions paid on or after the Specified Redemption Date. Any Redemption shall be exercised pursuant to a Notice of Redemption delivered to the REIT General Partner by the Limited Partner who is exercising the right (the "Tendering Partner"). The Cash Amount shall be payable to the Tendering Partner on the Specified Redemption Date.

(b)Notwithstanding Section 8.06(a) above, if a Limited Partner has delivered to the REIT General Partner a Notice of Redemption then the A-1 Series may, in its sole and absolute discretion, (subject to the limitations on ownership and transfer of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares set forth in the LLC Agreement) elect to assume and satisfy the Partnership's Redemption obligation and acquire some or all of the Tendered Units from the Tendering Partner in exchange for the Series A-1 Common REIT Shares Amount (as of the Specified Redemption Date) and, if the A-1 Series so elects, the Tendering Partner shall sell the Tendered Units to the A-1 Series in exchange for the Series A-1 Common REIT Shares Amount. In such event, the Tendering Partner shall have no right to cause the Partnership to redeem such Tendered Units. The A-1 Series shall give such Tendering Partner written notice of its election on or before the close of business on the fifth Business Day after the its receipt of the Notice of Redemption.

(c)The Series A-1 Common REIT Shares Amount, if applicable, shall be delivered by the Company to the A-1 Series and by the A-1 Series to the Tendering Partner as duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable Series A-1 Common REIT Shares and, if applicable, free of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or restriction, other than those provided in the LLC Agreement or the Bylaws of the Company, the Securities Act, relevant state securities or blue sky laws and any applicable registration rights agreement with respect to such Series A-1 Common REIT Shares entered into by the Tendering Partner. Notwithstanding any delay in such delivery (but subject to Section 8.06(e)), the Tendering Partner shall be deemed the owner of such Series A-1 Common REIT Shares for all purposes, including without limitation, rights to vote or consent, and receive dividends, as of the Specified Redemption Date. In addition, the Series A-1 Common REIT Shares for which the Partnership Units might be exchanged shall also bear such restrictive legends that the REIT General Partner determines are appropriate to mark transfer, ownership or other restrictions and limitations applicable to the Series A-1 Common REIT Shares.

(d)Each Limited Partner covenants and agrees with the REIT General Partner that all Tendered Units shall be delivered to the REIT General Partner or the A-1 Series free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances whatsoever and should any such liens, claims and/or encumbrances exist or arise with respect to such Tendered Units, the REIT General Partner and the A-1 Series shall be under no obligation to acquire the same. Each Limited Partner further agrees that, in the event any state or local property transfer tax is payable as a result of the transfer of its Tendered Units to the REIT General Partner or the A-1 Series (or their respective designees), such Limited Partner shall assume and pay such transfer tax.

(e)Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.06(a), 8.06(b), 8.06(c) or any other provision of this Agreement, a Limited Partner (i) shall not be entitled to effect a Redemption for cash or an exchange for Series A-1 Common REIT Shares to the extent (a) the ownership or right to acquire Series A-1 Common REIT Shares pursuant to such exchange by such Partner on the Specified Redemption Date could cause such Partner or any other Person to violate the restrictions on ownership and transfer of Series A-1 Common REIT Shares set forth in Article XIII of the LLC Agreement of the Company or (b) in the reasonable judgment of the REIT General Partner, the Redemption or exchange would cause a default under the Existing Loan, and (ii) shall have no rights under this Agreement to acquire Series A-1 Common REIT Shares which would otherwise be prohibited under Article XIII of the LLC Agreement or under the Existing Loan. To the extent any attempted Redemption or exchange for Series A-1 Common REIT Shares would be in violation of this Section 8.06(e), it shall be null and void ab initio and such Limited Partner shall not acquire any rights or economic interest in the cash otherwise payable upon such Redemption or the Series A-1 Common REIT Shares otherwise issuable upon such exchange.

(f)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (but subject to Section 8.06(e)), with respect to any Redemption or exchange for Series A-1 Common REIT Shares pursuant to this Section 8.06: (i) any OP Units acquired by the REIT General Partner pursuant thereto shall automatically, and without further action required, be converted into and deemed to be REIT General Partner Interests; (ii) without the consent of the REIT General Partner, each Limited Partner may effect a Redemption only one time in each fiscal quarter; (iii) without the consent of the REIT General Partner, each Limited Partner may not effect a Redemption for less than one thousand (1,000) OP Units or, if the Limited Partner holds less than one thousand (1,000) OP Units, all of the OP Units held by such Limited Partner; (iv) without the consent of the REIT General Partner, each Limited Partner 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 Company for a distribution to its members associated with the A-1 Series of some or all of the A-1 Series' and REIT General Partner's portion of such distribution (provided that such period shall not be longer than three (3) days); (v) the consummation of any Redemption or exchange for Series A-1 Common REIT Shares 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; and (vi) each Tendering Partner shall continue to own all OP Units subject to any Redemption or exchange for Series A-1 Common REIT Shares, and be treated as a Limited Partner with respect to such OP Units for all purposes of this Agreement, until such OP Units are transferred to the REIT General Partner or the A-1 Series and paid for or exchanged on the Specified Redemption Date. Until a Specified Redemption Date, the Tendering Partner shall have no rights as a member of the Company associated with the A-1 Series with respect to such Tendering Partner's OP Units.

(g)In the event that the Partnership issues additional Partnership Interests to any Additional Limited Partner pursuant to Section 4.04, the REIT General Partner shall make such revisions to this Section 8.06 as it determines are necessary to reflect the issuance of such additional Partnership Interests; provided that such revisions shall not adversely affect any rights of any existing Limited Partner under this Section 8.06 without the express written consent of such Limited Partner.

The Limited Partners shall promptly provide the Fortis General Partner with such information relating to the Contributed Properties, including tax basis and other relevant information, as may be reasonably requested by the Fortis General Partner from time to time.

Section 10.02.    Tax Elections. Except as otherwise provided herein, the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner shall, in their sole and absolute discretion, jointly 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. The REIT General Partner and the Fortis 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 REIT General Partner's and the Fortis General Partner's determination in their sole and absolute discretion that such revocation is in the best interests of the Partners. Notwithstanding the general provisions of this Section 10.02 (except as otherwise expressly agreed), any tax elections or determinations to not make a tax election that could have in the reasonable judgment of the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner a disproportionately adverse effect on the Lincoln Street Holdings Limited Partner Group shall require the prior written consent of the Majority in Interest of the Outside Limited Partners.

Section 10.03.    Tax Matters Partner.

(a)The Fortis General Partner shall be the "tax matters partner" of the Partnership for federal income tax purposes; provided that the tax matters partner shall consult with the REIT General Partner and shall consider in good faith all comments from the REIT General 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 7.04 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.

(b)The tax matters partner is authorized, but not required:

i.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");

ii.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;

iii.to intervene in any action brought by any other Partner for judicial review of a final adjustment;

iv.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;

v.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

vi.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 provisions relating to indemnification of the General Partners set forth in Section 7.07 hereof shall be fully applicable to the tax matters partner in its capacity as such.
Section 10.04.    Withholding. Each Limited Partner hereby authorizes the Partnership to withhold from or pay on behalf of or with respect to such Limited Partner any amount of federal, state, local or foreign taxes that the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner determine that the Partnership is required to withhold or pay with respect to any amount distributable or allocable 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 Sections 1441, 1442, 1445 or 1446 and Treasury Regulations thereunder. Any amount paid on behalf of or with respect to a Limited Partner, in excess of any withheld amounts 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 REIT General Partner and the Fortis 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 REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner determine, in their sole and absolute discretion, that such payment may be satisfied out of the Available Cash 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 10.04. In the event that a Limited Partner fails to pay any amounts owed to the Partnership pursuant to this Section 10.04 when due, the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner may, in their sole and absolute discretion, 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). Any amounts payable by a Limited Partner hereunder 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 percentage points (but not higher than the maximum lawful rate) from the date such amount is due (i.e., 15 days after demand) until such amount is paid in full. Each Limited Partner shall take such actions as the Partnership or the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner shall request in order to perfect or enforce the security interest created hereunder.

Section 10.05.    Organizational Expenses. The Partnership shall elect to amortize expenses, if any, incurred by it in organizing the Partnership ratably over a one hundred eighty (180) month period as provided in Code Section 709.

ARTICLE XI

TRANSFERS AND WITHDRAWALS

Section 11.01.    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 XI. Any Transfer or purported Transfer of a Partnership Interest not made in accordance with this Article XI shall be null and void ab initio unless consented to by the REIT General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion.

(c)No Transfer of any Partnership Interest may be made to a lender to the Partnership or any Person who is related (within the meaning of Section 1.752‑4(b) of the Regulations) to any lender to the Partnership whose loan constitutes a Nonrecourse Liability, without the consent of the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner in their sole and absolute discretion; provided, that as a condition to such consent, the lender will be required to enter into an arrangement with the Partnership and the REIT General Partner to redeem or exchange for Series A-1 Common REIT Shares any Partnership Units in which a security interest is held by such lender concurrently with such time as such lender would be deemed to be a partner in the Partnership for purposes of allocating liabilities to such lender under Code Section 752.

Section 11.02.    Transfer of A General Partner's Partnership Interest.

(a)No Transfer of the Partnership Interest of the Fortis General Partner and no Transfer of any ownership interest in any direct or indirect owner of the Fortis General Partner may be made without the consent of the REIT General Partner; provided, however, that a Transfer of an ownership interest in Fortis Property Group, LLC shall not require the consent of the REIT General Partner to the extent such Transfer does not result in a Change of Control. In addition, the Fortis General Partner may not withdraw as a General Partner if, in the judgment of the REIT General Partner, the withdrawal would cause a default under the Existing Loan. The REIT General Partner may not transfer any of its Partnership Interests except in connection with (i) a transaction permitted under Section 11.02(b), (ii) any merger (including a triangular merger), consolidation or other combination with or into another Person following the consummation of which the equity holders of the surviving entity are substantially identical to the members of such General Partner immediately prior to the consummation, (iii) a transfer to any Person that is a successor to such General Partner, (iv) a transfer to any Subsidiary of the REIT General Partner, (v) any transaction or series of related or similar transactions (each a "Separation Transaction") in which the Partnership Interests of the REIT General Partner or its Subsidiaries are transferred to one or more Subsidiaries of the REIT General Partner with a view to the distribution of the ownership interests of the transferee Subsidiary or Subsidiaries to the holders of limited liability company interests associated with the A-1 Series, or (vi) as otherwise expressly permitted under this Agreement, nor shall the REIT General Partner withdraw as a General Partner except in connection with a transaction permitted under Section 11.02(b) or any merger, consolidation, or other combination permitted under clause (ii) of this Section 11.02(a). Any transferee of the entire General Partner Interest of the REIT General Partner pursuant to this Section 11.02(a) shall automatically become, without further action or consent of any Limited Partners, the REIT General Partner, subject to all the rights, privileges, duties and obligations of the REIT General Partner under this Agreement. Upon any Transfer permitted by this Section 11.02(a), the transferor Partner shall be relieved of all its obligations under this Agreement. The provisions of Section 11.03 and Section 11.04 hereof shall not apply to any Transfer permitted by this Section 11.02(a).

(b)Notwithstanding Section 11.02(a) above, the REIT General Partner may, without the consent of the Limited Partners, transfer any or all of its Partnership Interest or permit the transfer of interests in itself in connection with any merger or sale of all or substantially all of the assets or shares of the REIT General Partner, or any third-party purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer in respect of the Series A-1 Common REIT Shares and OP Units that has been accepted by the holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate outstanding Series A-1 Common REIT Shares and OP Units (excluding OP Units held by the Company, the A-1 Series and their respective Subsidiaries), as the case may be; provided, however, that, to the extent any such transaction constitutes a Significant Transaction, such transaction shall be subject to the conditions of Section 7.03(d) hereof.

Section 11.03.    Transfer of Limited Partners' Partnership Interests.

(a)No Limited Partner shall Transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest to any transferee (i) without the written consent of the REIT General Partner, which consent may be withheld in its sole and absolute discretion, or (ii) other than to a Permitted Transferee.

(b)Without limiting the generality of Section 11.03(a) hereof, it is expressly understood and agreed that the REIT General Partner will not consent to any Transfer of all or any portion of any Partnership Interest pursuant to Section 11.03(a) above unless such Transfer meets each of the following conditions:

i.The transferee in such Transfer 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; provided, that no such Transfer (unless made 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 REIT General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transferee of any Transferred Partnership Interest shall be subject to any and all ownership limitations contained in the LLC Agreement 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 11.05 hereof.

ii.Such Transfer is effective as of the first day of a fiscal quarter of the Partnership.

(c)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.

(d)In connection with any proposed Transfer of a Limited Partner Interest other than to a Permitted Transferee, the REIT 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, and, in connection with any proposed Transfer of a Limited Partner Interest to a Permitted Transferee, the REIT General Partner shall have the right to receive written confirmation from such Permitted Transferee of its status as an accredited investor (within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act) and other factual matters for purposes of verifying that the proposed Transfer may be effected without registration under the Securities Act.

(e)No Transfer by a Limited Partner of its Partnership Interests (excluding a Redemption but including any other acquisition of Partnership Units by the Partnership or the REIT General Partner) may be made to or by any person (including a Transfer to a Permitted Transferee), without the consent of the REIT General Partner in its sole discretion, if (A) (i) in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, there is a significant risk that it would result in the Partnership being treated as an association taxable as a corporation or would result in a termination of the Partnership under Code Section 708, (ii) such Transfer would be effectuated through an "established securities market" or a "secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)" within the meaning of Code Section 7704, (iii) such Transfer would result in the Partnership being unable to qualify for one or more of the "safe harbors" set forth in Regulations Section 1.7704-1 (or such other guidance subsequently published by the IRS setting forth safe harbors under which interests will not be treated as "readily tradable on a secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof) " within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code) (the "Safe Harbors") or (iv) in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, there is a risk that such transfer would adversely affect the ability of the A-1 Series to continue to qualify as a REIT or subject the A-1 Series to any additional taxes under Code Section 857 or Code Section 4981, or (B) in the judgment of the REIT General Partner, the Transfer would cause a default under the Existing Loan.

Section 11.04.    Substituted Limited Partners.

(a)A transferee of the interest of a Limited Partner pursuant to a Transfer consented to by the REIT General Partner pursuant to Section 11.03(a) may be admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner only with the consent of the REIT General Partner, which consent may be given or withheld by the REIT General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion. A transferee of the interest of a Limited Partner to a Permitted Transferee shall be admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner provided that such Permitted Transferee complies with the provisions of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) below. The failure or refusal by the REIT 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 REIT General Partner. Subject to the foregoing, an Assignee shall not be admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner until and unless it furnishes to the REIT General Partner (i) evidence of acceptance, in form and substance satisfactory to the REIT 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 REIT General Partner, to effect such Assignee's admission as a Substituted Limited Partner. An Assignee that is a Permitted Transferee may satisfy the foregoing requirements by executing a joinder in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H and furnishing such joinder to the REIT General Partner.

(b)A transferee who has been admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner in accordance with this Article XI 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 REIT General Partner shall be authorized to 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 11.05.    Assignees. If the REIT General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, does not consent to the admission of any transferee of any Partnership Interest as a Substituted Limited Partner in connection with a transfer permitted by the REIT General Partner pursuant to Section 11.03(a), 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 only in accordance with the provisions of this Article XI, but shall not be deemed to be a holder of Partnership Units for any other purpose under this Agreement, and shall not be entitled to effect a Consent or vote or effect a Redemption with respect to such Partnership Units on any matter presented to the Limited Partners for approval (such right to Consent or vote or effect a Redemption, 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 XI to the same extent and in the same manner as any Limited Partner desiring to make an assignment of Partnership Units.
Section 11.06.    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 XI, with respect to which the transferee becomes a Substituted Limited Partner, or pursuant to a redemption (or acquisition by the REIT General Partner) of all of its Partnership Units pursuant to a Redemption under Section 8.06 hereof and/or pursuant to any Partnership Unit Designation.

(b)Any Limited Partner who shall Transfer all of its Partnership Units in a Transfer (i) consented to by the REIT General Partner pursuant to this Article XI 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 8.06 hereof and/or pursuant to any Partnership Unit Designation, (iii) to the REIT General Partner, whether or not pursuant to Section 8.06(b) hereof, or (iv) to a Permitted Transferee, shall cease to be a Limited Partner.

(c)If any Partnership Unit is Transferred in compliance with the provisions of this Article XI, or is redeemed by the Partnership, or acquired by the REIT General Partner pursuant to Section 8.06 hereof, on any day other than the first day of a Partnership Year, then Net Income, Net Losses, each item thereof and all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit attributable to such Partnership Unit for such Partnership 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, by taking into account their varying interests during the Partnership Year in accordance with Code Section 706(d) and the corresponding Regulations, using the "interim closing of the books" method or another permissible method selected by the REIT General Partner (unless the REIT General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion elects to adopt a daily, weekly or monthly proration period, in which case Net Income or Net Loss shall be allocated based upon the applicable method selected by the REIT 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 no event may any Transfer or assignment of a Partnership Interest by any Partner (other than any Redemption, but including any Transfer to a Permitted Transferee or acquisition of Partnership Units by the REIT 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 the Company to cease to comply with the REIT Requirements; (v) except with the consent of the REIT General Partner, if such Transfer, in the opinion of counsel to the Partnership or the REIT General Partner, would create a significant risk that such transfer would cause a termination of the Partnership for federal or state income tax purposes; (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 REIT General Partner) of all Partnership Units held by all Limited Partners); (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 Section 3(14)) or a "disqualified person" (as defined in Code Section 4975(c)); unless an applicable exemption exists; (viii) without the consent of the REIT General Partner, to any benefit plan investor within the meaning of Department of Labor Regulations Section 2510.3 101(f); (ix) if such Transfer would, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Partnership or the REIT General Partner, cause any portion of the assets of the Partnership to constitute assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to Department of Labor Regulations Section 2510.3 101; (x) if such Transfer requires the registration of such Partnership Interest pursuant to any applicable federal or state securities laws; (xi) except with the consent of the REIT General Partner, if such transfer would be effectuated through an "established securities market" or a "secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)" within the meaning of Code Section 7704, could cause the Partnership to become a "publicly traded partnership" as such term is defined in Sections 469(k)(2) or 7704(b) of the Code, or could cause the Partnership to fail one or more of the Safe Harbors; (xii) if such Transfer causes the Partnership (as opposed to the Company) to become a reporting company under the Exchange Act; (xiii) 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; or (xiv) if such transfer could cause a default under the Existing Loan.

ARTICLE XII

ADMISSION OF PARTNERS

Section 12.01.    Admission of Successor General Partner. A successor to all of the REIT General Partner Partner's General Partner Interest pursuant to Section 11.02 hereof who is proposed to be admitted as a successor REIT General Partner shall be admitted to the Partnership as the successor REIT 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 REIT 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. Concurrently with, and as evidence of, the admission of an Additional Limited Partner, the REIT General Partner shall be authorized to amend Exhibit A and the books and records of the Partnership to reflect the name, address and number of Partnership Units of such Additional Limited Partner.

Section 12.02.    Admission of Additional Limited Partners.

(a)After 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 REIT General Partner (i) evidence of acceptance, in form and substance satisfactory to the REIT General Partner, of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the power of attorney granted in Section 2.04 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 REIT General Partner in order to effect such Person's admission as an Additional Limited Partner and the satisfaction of all the conditions set forth in this Section 12.02.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 12.02, no Person shall be admitted as an Additional Limited Partner without the consent of the REIT General Partner, which consent may be given or withheld in the REIT 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 REIT 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 Partnership 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 Partnership Year shall be allocated pro rata among such Additional Limited Partner and all other Partners and Assignees by taking into account their varying interests during the Partnership Year in accordance with Code Section 706(d), using the "interim closing of the books" method or another permissible method selected by the REIT 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 11.06(c) 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 12.03.    Amendment of Agreement and Certificate of Limited Partnership.

Section 12.04.    Limit on Number of Partners. Unless otherwise permitted by the REIT General Partner, no Person shall be admitted to the Partnership as an Additional Limited Partner if the effect of such admission would be to cause the Partnership to have a number of Partners that would cause the Partnership to become a reporting company under the Exchange Act.

Section 12.05.    Admission. A Person shall be admitted to the Partnership as a Limited Partner of the Partnership only upon strict compliance, and not upon substantial compliance, with the requirements set forth in this Agreement for admission to the Partnership as an Additional Limited Partner.

ARTICLE XIII

DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION

Section 13.01.    Dissolution. The Partnership shall not be dissolved by the admission of Additional Limited Partners or by the admission of a successor General Partner in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon the withdrawal of a 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)a final and nonappealable judgment is entered by a court of competent jurisdiction ruling that a General Partner is bankrupt or insolvent, or a final and nonappealable order for relief is entered by a court with appropriate jurisdiction against a General Partner, in each case under any federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency laws as now or hereafter in effect, unless, prior to the entry of such order or judgment, any remaining General Partner and a Majority in Interest of the remaining Outside Limited Partners agree in writing, in their sole and absolute discretion, to continue the business of the Partnership and to the appointment, effective as of a date prior to the date of such order or judgment, of a successor General Partner;

(b)an election to dissolve the Partnership made by the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner in their sole and absolute discretion, with or without the consent of Limited Partners;

(c)entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Partnership pursuant to the provisions of the Act;

(d)the occurrence of a Terminating Capital Transaction; or

(e)the Redemption (or acquisition by the REIT General Partner) of all Partnership Units other than Partnership Units held by the REIT General Partner; or

(f)the Incapacity or withdrawal of both General Partners, unless all of the remaining Partners in their sole and absolute discretion agree in writing to continue the business of the Partnership and to the appointment, effective as of a date prior to the date of such Incapacity, of a substitute General Partners.

Section 13.02.    Winding Up.

(c)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 REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner or, in the event that there is no remaining General Partner or the General Partners have both dissolved, become bankrupt within the meaning of the Act or ceased to operate, any Person elected by Holders of a majority in interest of the Limited Partners (a 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 REIT General Partner, include shares of stock in the REIT General Partner) shall be applied and distributed in the following order:

(i)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);

(ii)Second, to the satisfaction of all of the Partnership's Debts and liabilities to the General Partners (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof), including, but not limited to, amounts due as reimbursements under Section 7.04 hereof;

(iii)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

(iv)The balance, if any, to the REIT General Partner, the Limited Partners and any Assignees in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.01 hereof.

The General Partners shall not receive any additional compensation for any services performed pursuant to this Article XIII.
(d)Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.02(a) 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 13.02(a) hereof, undivided interests in such Partnership assets as the Liquidator deems not suitable for liquidation. Any such distributions in kind shall be made only if, in the good faith judgment of the Liquidator, such distributions in kind are in the best interest of the Partners, and shall be subject to such conditions relating to the disposition and management of such properties as the Liquidator deems reasonable and equitable and to any agreements governing the operation of such properties at such time. The Liquidator shall determine the fair market value of any property distributed in kind using such reasonable method of valuation as it may adopt.

(e)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 XIII 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) (a "Capital Account Deficit"), such Partner shall not be required to make any contribution to the capital of the Partnership with respect to such Capital Account Deficit and such Capital Account Deficit shall not be considered a debt owed to the Partnership or any other person for any purpose whatsoever.

(f)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the REIT General Partner has a Capital Account Deficit, the REIT General Partner shall contribute to the capital of the Partnership the amount necessary to restore such Capital Account Deficit balance to zero; and the second sentence of Section 13.02(c) shall not apply with respect to any other Partner to the extent, but only to the extent, that such Partner previously has agreed in writing, with the consent of the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner, to undertake an express obligation to restore all or any portion of a deficit that may exist in its Capital Account upon a liquidation of the Partnership. Any contribution required of a Partner under this Section 13.02(d) shall be made on or before the later of (i) the end of the Partnership Year in which the interest is liquidated or (ii) the ninetieth (90th) day following the date of such liquidation.

(g)In the sole and absolute discretion of the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner or the Liquidator, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the Partners pursuant to this Article XIII may be:

(i)distributed to a trust established for the benefit of the General Partners and the Limited Partners for the purpose of liquidating Partnership assets, collecting amounts owed to the Partnership, and paying any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Partnership or of the General Partners arising out of or in connection with the Partnership and/or Partnership activities. The assets of any such trust shall be distributed to the General Partners and the Limited Partners, from time to time, in the reasonable discretion of the General Partners or the Liquidator, in the same proportions and amounts as would otherwise have been distributed to the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner and the Limited Partners pursuant to this Agreement; or

(ii)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 Partners and Limited Partners in the manner and order of priority set forth in Section 13.02(a) hereof as soon as practicable.

Section 13.03.    Deemed Distribution and Recontribution. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article XIII, 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 contributed all of its assets and liabilities to a new partnership in exchange for an interest in the new partnership; and, immediately thereafter, distributed interests in the new partnership to the Partners in accordance with their respective Capital Accounts in liquidation of the Partnership, and the new partnership is deemed to continue the business of the Partnership. Nothing in this Section 13.03 shall be deemed to have constituted any Assignee as a Substituted Limited Partner without compliance with the provisions of Section 11.04 hereof.

Section 13.04.    Rights of Limited Partners. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, (a) each Limited Partner shall look solely to the assets of the Partnership for the return of its Capital Contribution, (b) no Limited Partner shall have the right or power to demand or receive property other than cash from the Partnership, and (c) no Limited Partner (other than any Limited Partner who holds Preferred Units, to the extent specifically set forth herein and in the applicable Partnership Unit Designation) shall have priority over any other Limited Partner as to the return of its Capital Contributions, distributions or allocations.

Section 13.05.    Notice of Dissolution. In the event that a Liquidating Event occurs or an event occurs that would, but for an election or objection by one or more Partners pursuant to Section 13.01 hereof, result in a dissolution of the Partnership, the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner shall, within thirty (30) days thereafter, provide written notice thereof to each of the Partners and, in the REIT General Partner's and the Fortis General Partner's sole and absolute discretion or as required by the Act, to all other parties with whom the Partnership regularly conducts business (as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner), and the General Partners may, or, if required by the Act, shall, publish notice thereof in a newspaper of general circulation in each place in which the Partnership regularly conducts business (as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner).

Section 13.06.    Cancellation of Certificate of Limited Partnership. Upon the completion of the liquidation of the Partnership cash and property as provided in Section 13.02 hereof, the Partnership shall be terminated, a certificate of cancellation shall be filed with the State of Delaware, all qualifications of the Partnership as a foreign limited partnership or association in jurisdictions other than the State of Delaware shall be cancelled, and such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Partnership shall be taken.

Section 13.07.    Reasonable Time for Winding Up. A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding up of the business and affairs of the Partnership and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Section 13.02 hereof, in order to minimize any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding up, and the provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect between the Partners during the period of liquidation.

ARTICLE XIV


PROCEDURES FOR ACTIONS AND CONSENTS OF PARTNERS; AMENDMENTS; MEETINGS

Section 14.01.    Procedures for Actions and Consents of Partners. The actions requiring consent or approval of Limited Partners pursuant to this Agreement, including Section 7.03 hereof, or otherwise pursuant to applicable law, are subject to the procedures set forth in this Article XIV.

Section 14.02.     Amendments. Except for amendments that this Agreement authorizes the REIT General Partner to make, no amendment to this Agreement may be made without the consent of the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner. Any amendment requiring Consent of the Limited Partners may be proposed only by the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner. Following such proposal, the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner shall submit any proposed amendment to the Limited Partners. The REIT General Partner and the Fortis 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 REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner may deem appropriate. For purposes of obtaining a written consent, the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner may require a response within a reasonable specified time, but not less than ten (10) days, and failure to respond in such time period shall constitute a rejection of such proposed amendment.

Section 14.03.    Meetings of the Partners.

(a)Meetings of the Partners may be called by the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner and shall be called upon the receipt by the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner of a written request by a Majority in Interest of the Outside 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 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 14.03(b) 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 the Partners that are required or necessary to approve such action (if such action would have been presented at a meeting of the Partners). Such approvals may be obtained by the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner by means of written notice to all Limited Partners. Such consent may be in one instrument or in several instruments, and shall have the same force and effect as a vote of the applicable Partners (as required for such decision under this Agreement). Such consent shall be filed with the REIT General Partner and the Fortis 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 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. The use of proxies will be governed in the same manner as in the case of corporations organized under the Delaware General Corporation Law (including Section 212 thereof).

(d)Each meeting of Partners shall be conducted by the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner or such other Person as the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner may appoint pursuant to such rules for the conduct of the meeting as the REIT General Partner and the Fortis 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 Company's members associated with the A-1 Series and may be held at the same time as, and as part of, the meetings of the Company's members associated with the A-1 Series.

(e)On matters on which Limited Partners are entitled to vote, each Limited Partner holding OP Units shall have a vote equal to the number of OP Units held.

(f)Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Consent of Holders of Partnership Interests representing a majority of the Partnership Interests of the Limited Partners shall control.

ARTICLE XV

Section 15.06.    Waiver.

(a)No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute waiver of any such breach or any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition.

(b)The restrictions, conditions and other limitations on the rights and benefits of the Limited Partners contained in this Agreement, and the duties, covenants and other requirements of performance or notice by the Limited Partners, are for the benefit of the Partnership and, except for an obligation to pay money to the Partnership, may be waived or relinquished by the REIT General Partner and the Fortis General Partner, in their sole and absolute discretion, on behalf of the Partnership in one or more instances from time to time and at any time.

Section 15.07.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which together shall constitute one agreement binding on all the parties hereto, notwithstanding that all such parties are not signatories to the original or the same counterpart. Each party shall become bound by this Agreement immediately upon affixing its signature hereto.

Section 15.08.    Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law. 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 15.09.    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 Qualification. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, to the extent that the amount paid, credited, distributed or reimbursed by the Partnership to the REIT General Partner, the A-1 Series, the Company or their officers, directors, members, managers, employees or agents, whether as a reimbursement, fee, expense or indemnity (a "REIT Payment"), would constitute gross income to the A-1 Series 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 REIT General Partner in its discretion from among items of potential distribution, reimbursement, fees, expenses and indemnities, shall be reduced for any Partnership Year so that the REIT Payments, as so reduced, for or with respect to the A-1 Series, shall not exceed the lesser of:

(i)an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) four point nine percent (4.9%) of the A-1 Series' total gross income (but excluding the amount of any REIT Payments) for the Partnership Year that is described in subsections (A) through (H) of Code Section 856(c)(2) over (y) the amount of gross income (within the meaning of Code Section 856(c)(2)) derived by the A-1 Series from sources other than those described in subsections (A) through (H) of Code Section 856(c)(2) (but not including the amount of any REIT Payments); or

(ii)an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) twenty-four percent (24%) of the A-1 Series total gross income (but excluding the amount of any REIT Payments) for the Partnership Year that is described in subsections (A) through (I) of Code Section 856(c)(3) over (y) the amount of gross income (within the meaning of Code Section 856(c)(3)) derived by the A-1 Series 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 REIT General Partner, as a condition precedent, obtains an opinion of tax counsel that the receipt of such excess amounts shall not adversely affect the A-1 Series' ability to qualify as a REIT. To the extent that REIT Payments may not be made in a Partnership 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 Partnership Year. The purpose of the limitations contained in this Section 15.11 is to prevent the A-1 Series from failing to qualify as a REIT under the Code by reason of the A-1 Series' 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; provided however, that this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of (i) the Company, (ii) the Indemnitees, (iii) the person referred to in Section 7.08(a) and (iv) the persons referred to in Section 7.08(e), all as and to the extent provided in this Agreement. No creditor or other third party having dealings with the Partnership (other than as expressly set forth herein with respect to Indemnitees) 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.

Section 15.14.    No Rights as Members of the Company or Members of the General Partners. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as conferring upon the Holders of Partnership Units any rights whatsoever as members of the Company or members or interestholders of the General Partners, as the case may be, including without limitation any right to receive distributions made to members of the Company or members or interestholders of the General Partners, as the case may be, or to vote or to consent or receive notice as members of the Company in respect of any meeting of members. For the avoidance of doubt, holders of OP Units shall have the right to vote together with members of the Company associated with the A-1 Series as provided in Section 7.03(d) hereof.

Section 15.15.    Creditors. Other than as expressly set forth herein with respect to Indemnitees, none of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of, or shall be enforceable by, any creditor of the Partnership.

2.    Demand Registrations.

(a)Long-Form Registration. At any time after the Demand Date, Holders holding a 10% or more of the Registrable Securities then held by the Holders (determined as if all of the OP Units held by any Holder have been exchanged for Registrable Securities) may request registration under the Securities Act of their Registrable Securities on Form S-11 or any similar long-form registration statement (each such registration, a "Long‑Form Registration"); provided that the aggregate value of all Registrable Securities and any other securities to be sold is at least equal to $5 million. Each request for a Long-Form Registration shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities required to be registered by such Holders. Upon receipt of any such request, the A-1 Series shall promptly (but in no event later than 5 days following receipt thereof) deliver notice of such request to all other Holders holding Registrable Securities who shall then have 30 days from the date that such notice is given to notify the A-1 Series in writing of their desire to include any of their Registrable Securities in such registration. The Company shall, as expeditiously as possible, cause a Registration Statement on Form S-11 (or any similar long-form registration statement) to be prepared and filed within 45 days after the date on which the initial request is made by the Holders holding 10% or more of the Registrable Securities in accordance with this Section 2(a), and, subject to Section 4(b), shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared and kept effective by the Commission as soon as practicable thereafter.

(b)Short-Form Registration. After the consummation of the IPO, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to qualify and remain qualified to register securities under the Securities Act pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration statement. Following the Demand Date, and at such time as the Company shall have qualified for the use of a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration statement, Holders holding 10% or more of the Registrable Securities then held by the Holders (determined as if all of the OP Units held by any Holder have been exchanged for Registrable Securities) may request registration under the Securities Act of their Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration statement (each such registration, a "Short-Form Registration" and, together with each Long-Form Registration, a "Demand Registration"); provided that the aggregate value of all Registrable Securities and any other securities to be sold is at least equal to $1 million. Each request for a Short-Form Registration shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered by such Holders. Upon receipt of any such request, the A-1 Series shall promptly (but in no event later than 5 days following receipt thereof) deliver notice of such request to all other Holders holding Registrable Securities who shall then have 10 days from the date such notice is given to notify the A-1 Series in writing of their desire to be included in such registration. The Company shall, as expeditiously as possible, cause a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any similar short-form registration statement) to be prepared and filed within 30 days after the date on which the initial request is made by the Holders holding 10% or more of the Registrable Securities in accordance with this Section 2(b), and, subject to Section 4(b), shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared and kept effective by the Commission as soon as practicable thereafter.

(c)Limitations.

(i)The Holders as a group shall not be entitled to exercise a Demand Registration right more than one time during any calendar quarter; provided, that a Registration Statement shall not count as a Demand Registration requested under Section 2(a) or Section 2(b) unless and until it has become effective.

(ii)If the Company's Board determines in its reasonable good faith judgment that the exercise of a Demand Registration under Section 2(a) or Section 2(b) would (i) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate reorganization or other similar transaction involving the A-1 Series, or (ii) require premature disclosure of material non-public information that the A-1 Series has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential, then, the Holders seeking to exercise such Demand Registration right under Section 2(a) or Section 2(b), upon receipt of a written certification from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer of such determination by the Company’s Board including a general statement of the reasons for suspension and an approximation of the period of the anticipated delay, the rights of the Holders under Section 2(a) or Section 2(b) shall be suspended until the date upon which the Company notifies the Holders in writing that the suspension of such rights for the grounds set forth in this Section 2(c)(ii) is no longer necessary; provided, however, that no such suspension shall be longer than 75 days; and provided further, that the Company shall not exercise the right to suspend an offering pursuant to this Section 2(c)(ii) more than once in any twelve (12) month period; and provided further, that the Company shall not be entitled to suspend an offering pursuant to this Section 2(c)(ii) unless it shall concurrently (A) prohibit sales by all other holders of Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Shares) under registration statements covering such securities held by such other security holders, and (B) forbid the purchases and sales of Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Shares) in the open market by directors and executive officers of the Company. If the Company shall so suspend the filing of a Registration Statement in accordance with this Section 2(c)(ii), the Holders shall have the right to withdraw the request for registration by giving written notice to the Company at any time after receipt of the notice of suspension (and, in the event of such withdrawal, such request shall not be counted for purposes of determining the number of Demand Registrations to which the Holders are entitled pursuant to Section 2(c)(i) in any calendar quarter); provided, that in such event the Holders initiating such Demand Registration shall be withdrawn, the A-1 Series shall pay all registration expenses in connection with such withdrawn request for registration.

(d)Underwriting. If the Holders initially requesting a Demand Registration elect to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request in an underwritten offering, they shall so advise the A-1 Series as a part of their request made pursuant to Section 2(a) or Section 2(b), and the A-1 Series shall include such information in its notice to the other Holders holding Registrable Securities. The Holders initially requesting the Demand Registration shall select the investment banking firm or firms to act as the managing underwriter or underwriters in connection with such offering; provided, that such selection shall be subject to the consent of the A-1 Series, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(e)Priority on Demand Registrations. The Company shall not include in any Demand Registration any securities which are not Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of Holders holding 10% or more of the Registrable Securities included in such Demand Registration who initially requested such registration, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If a Demand Registration involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter of the requested Demand Registration advises the Company and those Persons participating in such offering in writing in its good faith opinion that: the number of Common Shares proposed to be included in the Demand Registration, including all Registrable Securities and (subject to the consent right in the immediately preceding sentence) any other Common Shares proposed to be included in such underwritten offering, (A) exceeds the number of Common Shares which can be sold in such underwritten offering, or (B) would adversely affect the price per share of the Common Shares proposed to be sold in such underwritten offering, then, in either instance, the Company shall include in such Demand Registration (X) first, the number of Registrable Securities that the Holders participating in such offering propose to sell, and (Y) (i) second, the number of Common Shares proposed to be included therein by any other Persons (including Common Shares to be sold for the account of the Company and/or other holders of Common Shares) allocated among such Persons in such manner as such other Persons and the managing underwriter may agree; or (ii) the Company shall allocate such number of Common Shares proposed to be included therein by other Persons in the Demand Registration pro rata among such respective Persons participating in the Demand Registration on the basis of the number of Common Shares owned by such Persons as compared to the aggregate number of Common Shares held by all Persons (in each case, excluding the Holders).

3.    Market Stand-off.

(a)Lockup Agreement. To the extent not inconsistent with applicable law, each Holder agrees not to effect any public sale or distribution (including sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of Common Shares, or any securities, options or rights convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Shares (including, without limitation, the OP Units), during the 180-day period beginning on the effective date of the IPO, unless expressly authorized by the underwriters managing the IPO. Notwithstanding, the foregoing, nothing in this Section 3(a) shall in any way restrict, limit or otherwise prevent any of the Holders from transferring all or a portion of its Partnership Interest (as defined in the OP Agreement) to a Permitted Transferee (as defined in the OP Agreement) under sub-sections (a) through (d) of such definition, so long as such new Holder agrees to be bound to this Section 3(a) by executing the joinder in Exhibit A hereto.

(b)Stop Transfer Instructions. The Company may impose, and the A-1 Series, in its capacity as a general partner of the Operating Partnership, may cause the Operating Partnership to impose, stop transfer instructions with respect to Registrable Securities or other securities subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 3(a) until the end of the relevant period.

(c)Blackout Period. The Company agrees not to effect any public sale or distribution of Common Shares, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Shares, during the seven days prior to and during the 90-day period beginning on the effective date of any underwritten Demand Registration (except as part of such underwritten registration or offering or pursuant to registrations on Form S-8 or any successor or similar form), unless the underwriters managing the registered public offering otherwise agree.

4.    Registration Procedures. In connection with any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2, the following provisions shall apply:

(a)    Copies of Registration Statement. The A-1 Series shall furnish as promptly as practicable to each selling Holder, prior to the Company filing a Registration Statement or any supplement or amendment thereto, a copy of such Registration Statement, supplement or amendment as it is proposed to be filed, and after such filing such number of copies of such Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits thereto), the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as each Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such selling Holder.

(b)    Effectiveness. Once a Registration Statement has been declared effective, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to remain effective and in compliance with the applicable securities laws, including causing the Registration Statement to not contain an untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and preparing and filing any amendments, supplements or post-effective amendments necessary for that purpose until the earlier of (i) not less than 180 days from the date of effectiveness or, if such Registration Statement relates to an underwritten offering, such longer period as in the opinion of counsel for the underwriters a prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of Registrable Securities by an underwriter or dealer, or (ii) the date on which all of the securities covered by such Registration Statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement (but in any event not before the expiration of any longer period required under the Securities Act).

(c)    General Notification. The A-1 Series shall promptly advise the selling Holders, and, if requested by such Holders, confirm such advice in writing:

(i)when the Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or any prospectus amendment or supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed with the Commission and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;

(ii)of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information;

(iii)of any notification by the Commission whether there will be a "review" of such Registration Statement;

(iv)of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose;

(v)of any comments (oral or written) by the Commission and by the blue sky or securities commissioner or regulator of any state with respect thereto;

(vi)of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and

(vii)of any other information which reasonable be deemed to be material to the selling Holders in connection with their proposed registration and disposition of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement.

Each Holder agrees that upon receipt of any written notice of the A-1 Series pursuant to paragraphs (ii) through (vi) of Section 4(c) hereof, such Holder shall discontinue offering such Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement until such Holder's receipt of copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4(d) hereof, or until advised in writing (the "Advice") by the A-1 Series that the use of the applicable prospectus may be resumed. If the A-1 Series shall give any notice under Section 4(c)(ii) through (vi) during the registration period, such registration period shall be extended by the number of days during such period from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when each seller of Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement shall have received (x) the copies of the supplemental or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4(d) (if an amended or supplemental prospectus is required) or (y) the Advice (if no amended or supplemental prospectus is required).
(d)    Notification of Stop Orders; Suspensions of Qualifications and Exemptions. Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraphs (ii) through (vi) of Section 4(c) hereof during the period for which the Company is required to maintain an effective Registration Statement, the Company shall (A) use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of a stop order, and in the event of such issuance, to obtain the withdrawal of any stop order or order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and (B) prepare a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus or file any other required document as soon as possible so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Registrable Securities, the prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and will comply with the Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder.

(e)    Copies of the Registration Statement. The A-1 Series will furnish to each Holder included within the coverage of the Registration Statement, without charge to such Holder, copies of the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if any Holder so requests, all exhibits (including those incorporated by reference) in such number as such Holder may reasonably request from time to time.

(f)    Copies of the Prospectus. The A-1 Series will deliver to each Holder included within the coverage of the Registration Statement, without charge to such Holder, as many copies of the prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) included in the Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as each such Holder may reasonably request; and the Company consents to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each Holder in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto.

(g)    Blue Sky. Prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify (or seek an exemption from registration or qualification) or cooperate with each Holder selling Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of such securities for offer and sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as such counsel reasonably requests in writing on behalf of such Holder and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company will not be required to qualify to do business or to qualify as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to take any action which would subject it to general service of process or to taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.

(h)    Certificates. The Company shall cooperate with each Holder to facilitate the timely, in the case of beneficial interests in Registrable Securities held through a depositary, Transfer of such equivalent Registrable Securities with an unrestricted CUSIP, or, in the case of certificated shares, preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to such Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and registered in such names as such Holder may request in writing prior to sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.

(i)    SEC Compliance; Earnings Statement. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and shall make generally available to its Holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event not later than 18 months after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, an earnings statement covering a period of 12 months beginning after the effective date of such Registration Statement, in a manner which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 promulgated thereunder.

(j)    Holder Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company or the A-1 Series to take any action pursuant to Section 2 herein with respect to the Registrable Securities of any Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the A-1 Series such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Holder's Registrable Securities.

(k)    Agreements. The Company and/or the A-1 Series shall enter into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as the Holders that hold 10% or more of the Registrable Securities being sold or the managing underwriters (if any) shall reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.

(l)    Legal Opinion; Certificates; Cold Comfort Letter. The Company and/or the A-1 Series, if requested by those Holders that together hold 10% or more of the Registrable Securities being sold or the managing underwriters (if any) in connection with the Registration Statement, shall cause (i) its counsel to deliver an opinion relating to the Registration Statement and the Registrable Securities, in customary form (and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by legal opinions of such nature) addressed to the selling Holders and the managing underwriters (if any), and dated the effective date of such Registration Statement; (ii) its officers to execute and deliver all customary documents and certificates; and (iii) its independent public accountants to provide a "cold comfort" letter in customary form (and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by a "cold comfort" letter).

(m)    Listing. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange, if any, on which the Common Shares are then listed.

(n)    Due Diligence. For a reasonable period prior to the filing of a Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement, the Company and the A-1 Series shall make available for inspection and copying by any Holder or underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such Holder or underwriter, all financial and other information and books and records and pertinent corporate documents of the Company associated with the A-1 Series or of the A-1 Series, and cause the Company's and the A-1 Series' officers, directors, employees and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Holder, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such Registration Statement, as will be reasonably necessary in the judgment of such persons, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act; provided, however, that if requested by the Company or the A-1 Series, each Holder will enter into a confidentiality agreement with the Company and the A-1 Series prior to participating in the preparation of the Registration Statement or the Company's or the A-1 Series' release or disclosure of material non-public information to such Holder.

(o)    Participation. No Holder may participate in any registration hereunder which is underwritten unless such Holder agrees to sell such Holder's Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Holders entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements (including, without limitation, pursuant to the terms of any over-allotment or "green shoe" option requested by the managing underwriter(s); provided that no Holder will be required to sell more than the number of Registrable Securities that such Holder has requested the Company to include in any registration).

(p)    10b-5 Notification. The A-1 Series shall promptly notify in writing each selling Holder and the managing underwriter of the offering in which Registrable Securities are being sold pursuant to any Registration Statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act upon discovery that, or upon the happening of an event as a result of which, any prospectus included in such Registration Statement (or amendment or supplement thereto) contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made, and the Company will promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus and file it with the Commission (in any event no later than four days following notice of the occurrence of such event to each selling Holder and the managing underwriter) so that after delivery of such prospectus, as so amended or supplemented, to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus, as so amended or supplemented, will not contain an untrue statement or a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made.

(q)    Other Approvals. The Company and the A-1 Series shall each use their respective reasonable best efforts in order to obtain all other approvals, consents, exemptions or authorizations from such governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the Holders and underwriters to consummate the disposition of the Registrable Securities.

(r)    FINRA. The Company and the A-1 Series shall each cooperate with each Holder and each underwriter participating in the disposition of such Registrable Securities and underwriters' counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with FINRA.

(s)    Road Show. The Company and the A-1 Series shall each cause the appropriate officers as are requested by a managing underwriter to participate in a "road show" or similar marketing effort being conducted by such underwriter with respect to an underwritten public offering.

(t)    Transfer Agent, Register and CUSIP. The Company shall provide a transfer agent and register for all Registrable Securities pursuant hereto and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case, no later than the effective date of registration.

(u)    Other Actions. Each of the Company and the A-1 Series shall use its reasonable best efforts to take all other actions necessary to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities contemplated hereby.

(v)    Notice to Discontinue. Each Holder whose Registrable Securities are covered by a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement agrees that, upon receipt of written notice from the A-1 Series of the happening of an event of the kind described in Section 4(p), such Holder will forthwith discontinue the disposition of Registrable Securities until such Holder's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4(p) or until it is advised in writing by the A-1 Series that the use of the prospectus may be resumed and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated by reference into the prospectus, and, if so directed by the A-1 Series in the case of an event described in Section 4(p), such Holder will deliver to the A-1 Series (at the A-1 Series' expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder's possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities which is current at the time of receipt of such notice. If the A-1 Series gives any such notice, the Company will extend the period during which such Registration Statement is to be maintained effective by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to Section 4(p) to and including the date when the Holder will have received the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by, and meeting the requirements of, Section 4(p).

(w)    Free Writing Prospectuses. Each Holder agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the A-1 Series and any managing underwriter, it will not make any offer relating to the Registrable Securities that would constitute an "issuer free writing prospectus," as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act (an "Issuer Free Writing Prospectus"), or that would otherwise constitute a "free writing prospectus," as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, required to be filed with the Commission.

5.Registration Expenses. The A-1 Series shall bear all expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its or the Company's obligations under this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in the proviso to this Section 5) (collectively, "Registration Expenses"); provided, however, that Registration Expenses shall not include (i) underwriting or sales fees, discounts and commissions, (ii) any fees, expenses and disbursements of legal counsel to any Holder, and (iii) any transfer taxes relating to the sale or disposition of the Registerable Shares by any Holder.
 
6.Certain Limitations on Registration Rights. No Holder may participate in any Registration Statement hereunder unless such Holder completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, and other documents reasonably required under the terms of underwriting arrangements which are entered into in connection with such Registration Statement and agrees to sell such Holder's Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting agreement approved by the Holder or Holders entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements.

7.Indemnification.

(a)Indemnification by the A-1 Series. The A-1 Series shall, notwithstanding termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless to the full extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Holders named in any Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement and the officers and directors of such Holders and each person, if any, who controls such Holders within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Holder or such other Person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act, or any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein or furnished by the A-1 Series to any such Holder, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related to such registration, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and, in any such case, the A-1 Series shall reimburse such Holder for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the A-1 Series shall not be required to indemnify any such person pursuant to this Section 7(a) to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability (or actions in respect thereof) arises out of or is based upon (i) fraud or dishonesty or an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, or preliminary, final or summary prospectus, or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or amendment or supplement thereto, that was furnished in writing to the A-1 Series by such Person expressly for inclusion in the Registration Statement, or preliminary, final or summary prospectus, or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or amendment or supplement thereto, or (ii) the use by any such Person of a prospectus in violation of any stop order or other suspension of the Registration Statement of which the A-1 Series made the Holder or other holder of Registrable Securities aware in writing.

(b)Indemnification by Holders. Each Holder of Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement shall, notwithstanding termination of this Agreement, severally and not jointly, (i) indemnify and hold harmless the A-1 Series, the Company, the Company's officers and directors, each person, if any, who controls such Holders within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and all other Holders against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the A-1 Series, the Company, the Company's officers or directors, such controlling persons or such other Holders may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, or any preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein or furnished by the A-1 Series to any such Holder, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related to such registration, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was furnished in writing to the A-1 Series by such Holder expressly for inclusion in the Registration Statement, or preliminary, final or summary prospectus, or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or amendment or supplement thereto, and (ii) reimburse the A-1 Series for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the A-1 Series in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that no such Holder shall be required to undertake liability to any Person under this Section 7(b) for any amounts in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of such Holder's Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement and such undertaking shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders.

(c)Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 7(a) or 7(b) hereof of written notice of the commencement of any action or threat thereof, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party pursuant to the indemnification provisions of or contemplated by this Section 7, notify such indemnifying party in writing of the commencement of such action or threat; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party other than under the indemnification provisions of or contemplated by Section 7(a) or 7(b) hereof and unless and to the extent such indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, such indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, that if any indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be one or more legal or equitable defenses available to such indemnified party which are additional to or conflict with those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party without such indemnified party's prior written consent (but, without such consent, shall have the right to participate therein with counsel of its choice). If the indemnifying party is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim, it shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless, in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which case the conflicting indemnified parties shall have a right to retain one separate counsel, chosen by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the registration, at the expense of the indemnifying party. Such indemnifying party shall not enter into any settlement with a party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party with respect to any and all claims against each indemnified party and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party or commit any indemnified party to take or refrain from taking any action. An indemnified party shall not enter into any settlement without the consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(d)Contribution if Indemnification Against Public Policy. Each party hereto agrees that, if an indemnification provision contemplated by Section 7(a) or 7(b) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or by such indemnified party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 7(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 7(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of any Holder hereunder this Section 7(d) shall be limited to the amount of net proceeds received by such Holder in the offering giving rise to such liability, less any amounts paid pursuant to Section 7(b). No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders' obligations in this Section 7(d) to contribute shall be several in proportion to the principal amount of Registrable Securities registered by them severally and not jointly.

(e)Obligations Not Exclusive. The obligations of the Holders contemplated by this Section 7 shall be in addition to any liability which the respective Holder may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act.

8.Miscellaneous.

(a)Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departure from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company and the A-1 Series have obtained the written consent of the Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding (determined as if all of the OP Units held by any Holder have been exchanged for Registrable Securities); provided, however, that the consent of the Holders shall not be required to include as a party hereto any transferee of OP Units from a Holder in connection with a Transfer of OP Units, as contemplated by Section 8(e).

(b)Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties in respect of its subject matters and supersedes all prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the parties, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof. Except as expressly contemplated hereby, there are no third party beneficiaries having rights under or with respect to this Agreement.

(c)Term and Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time by an instrument in writing signed by all of the parties hereto. This Agreement shall terminate automatically as to any Holder that no longer holds OP Units or Registrable Securities; provided, however, that such Holder's lockup agreement obligations under Section 3(a) and indemnification and contribution obligations under Section 7 shall survive any such termination. The Company and the A-1 Series shall have no further obligations pursuant to this Agreement at such time as the Holders no longer hold any OP Units and no Registrable Securities are outstanding; provided, however, that the A-1 Series' indemnification and contribution obligations under Section 7 shall survive any such termination.

(d)Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, first-class mail, e-mail, or air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery:

(e)Successors and Assigns; Assignment.

(i)This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective permitted assigns.

(ii)Upon compliance with the provisions of the OP Agreement, the rights, interests and obligations hereunder may be transferred with a Transfer of the OP Units so long as the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement pursuant to an instrument substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(iii)Neither the Company nor the A-1 Series may assign any of its respective obligations, rights or interests hereunder without the prior written consent of the Holders representing a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding (determined as if all of the OP Units held by any Holder have been exchanged for Registrable Securities).

(f)Submission to Jurisdiction; No Jury Trial. (i) Each party submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in New York, New York in any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of the action may be heard and determined in any such court. Each party agrees that a final judgment in any action so brought will be conclusive and may be enforced by action on the judgment or in any other manner provided at law or in equity. Each party waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action so brought and waives any bond, surety, or other security that might be required of any other party with respect thereto.

(i)THE PARTIES EACH HEREBY AGREE TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO JURY TRIAL OF ANY DISPUTE BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENTS RELATING HERETO OR ANY DEALINGS AMONG THEM RELATING TO THE TRANSACTIONS. The scope of this waiver is intended to be all encompassing of any and all action that may be filed in any court and that relate to the subject matter of the transactions contemplated hereby, including, contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims and all other common law and statutory claims. The parties each acknowledge that this waiver is a material inducement to enter into a business relationship and that they will continue to rely on the waiver in their related future dealings. Each party further represents and warrants that it has reviewed this waiver with its legal counsel, and that each knowingly and voluntarily waives its jury trial rights following consultation with legal counsel. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THE WAIVER WILL APPLY TO ANY AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING HERETO. In the event of an action, this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to trial by a court.

(g)Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

(h)Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule that would cause the application of the law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

(i)Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

(j)Construction. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party because of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal or state law will be deemed also to refer to law as amended and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The word "including" means "including without limitation." Pronouns in masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will be construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular form will be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires. The words "this Agreement," "herein," "hereof," "hereby," "hereunder," and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. The parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein will have independent significance. If any party has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the party has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that the party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant.

(k)Severability. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

New York, New York 10005
 
Ladies and Gentlemen:
 
We have acted as counsel to ETRE REIT, LLC (the "Company") in connection with the offer and sale by the Company of its Series A-1 common shares representing limited liability company interests of Series A-1 of the Company (the "Common Shares"). The Common Shares are being sold pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-194106) (together with any amendments thereto, the "Registration Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").
In rendering the opinion expressed below, we have examined and relied upon originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such company records, documents, certificates and other instruments as in our judgment are necessary or appropriate.  As to factual matters relevant to the opinion set forth below, we have, with your permission, relied upon certificates of officers of the Company and public officials.
Based on the foregoing, and such other examination of law as we have deemed necessary, we are of the opinion that the Common Shares have been duly and validly authorized and, when issued and sold in the manner contemplated by the prospectus for the offering of Common Shares included in the Registration Statement, such Common Shares will be validly issued and fully paid and holders of the Common Shares will have no obligation to make payments or contributions to the Company or its creditors solely by reason of their ownership of the Common Shares.
The opinion set forth in this letter relates only to the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act. We express no opinion as to the laws of another jurisdiction and we assume no responsibility for the applicability or effect of the law of any other jurisdiction.
We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference to us under the caption "Legal Matters" in the prospectus, which is a part of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not concede that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.
Very truly yours,

July 20, 2015

ETRE REIT, LLC
44 Wall Street
New York, NY 10005
Re:
REIT Qualification of ETRE REIT, LLC, Series A-1
Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to ETRE REIT, LLC, a Delaware series limited liability company (the “Company”), in connection with the offering by Series A-1 of the Company (the “A-1 Series”) of limited liability company interests of the A-1 Series (the “Series A-1 Common Shares”) pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-11 as of the date hereof filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (together with any amendments thereto, the “Registration Statement”). Except as otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used in this opinion letter have the meanings given to them in the Registration Statement.

In rendering the opinions expressed herein, we have examined and, with your permission, relied on the following items:

1.    the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Company;
2.    the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of ETRE Property A-1, L.P. (the “Property LP”);
3.    the Bylaws of the Company;
4.    a Certificate of Representations, (the “Company Certificate of Representations”) dated as of the date hereof, provided to us by the Company, the A-1 Series and ETRE Asset Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Administrative Agent”);
5.    a Certificate of Representations, (the “Asset Manager Certificate of Representations”) dated as of the date hereof, provided to us by FPG Lincoln Manager, LLC (the “Asset Manager”);
6.    the Registration Statement; and
7.    such other documents, records and instruments as we have deemed necessary in order to enable us to render the opinion referred to in this letter.
In our examination of the foregoing documents, we have assumed, with your consent, that (i) all documents reviewed by us are original documents, or true and accurate copies of original documents and have not been subsequently amended, (ii) the signatures of each original document are genuine, (iii) all representations and statements set forth in such documents are true and correct, (iv) all obligations imposed by any such documents on the parties thereto have been performed or satisfied in accordance with their terms, and (v) the Company, the A-1 Series and all future Series at all times will operate in accordance with the method of operation described in the Company’s organizational documents, the Registration Statement, the Company Certificate of Representations and the Asset Manager Certificate of Representations. As of the date hereof, we are not aware of any facts inconsistent with the statements in the organizational documents, the Registration Statement, the Company Certificate of Representations or the Asset Manager Certificate of Representations.
For purposes of rendering the opinions stated below, we have assumed, with your consent, the accuracy of the representations contained in the Company Certificate of Representations provided to us by the Company, the A-1 Series and the Administrative Agent and the Asset Manager Certificate of Representations provided to us by the Asset Manager, and that each representation contained in each such Certificate of Representations to the best of the Company’s, the A-1 Series’, the Administrative Agent’s or the Asset Manager’s knowledge or belief, as applicable, is accurate and complete without regard to such qualification as to the best of such entity’s knowledge or belief. These representations generally relate to the organization and proposed method of operation of the Company, the A-1 Series and all future Series. Furthermore, notwithstanding that certain representations set forth in the Asset Manager Certificate of Representations are statements of the Asset Manager’s intent, we have assumed, with your consent, that the Asset Manager shall successfully operate the Property LP in accordance with such intent.
Based upon, subject to, and limited by the assumptions and qualifications set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:
1.    Commencing with its taxable year ending December 31, 2015, the A-1 Series has been organized in conformity with the requirements for qualification as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and its proposed method of operation as described in the Registration Statement and as set forth in the Company Certificate of Representations and the Asset Manager Certificate of Representations will enable the A-1 Series to meet the requirements for qualification as a REIT under the Code; and,
2.    The statements in the Registration Statement under the caption “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,” to the extent they describe applicable U.S. federal income tax law, are true and correct in all material respects.
The opinions set forth in this letter are based on relevant provisions of the Code, Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, interpretations of the foregoing as expressed in court decisions, legislative history, and existing administrative rulings and practices of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) (including its practices and policies in issuing private letter rulings, which are not binding on the IRS except with respect to a taxpayer that receives such a ruling), all as of the date hereof. These provisions and interpretations are subject to change, which may or may not be retroactive in effect, and which may result in modifications of our opinions. Our opinions do not foreclose the possibility of a contrary determination by the IRS or a court of competent jurisdiction, or of a contrary determination by the IRS or the Treasury Department in regulations or rulings issued in the future. In this regard, an opinion of counsel with respect to an issue represents counsel’s best professional judgment with respect to the outcome on the merits with respect to such issue, if such issue were to be litigated, but an opinion is not binding on the IRS or the courts and is not a guarantee that the IRS will not assert a contrary position with respect to such issue or that a court will not sustain such a position asserted by the IRS.
The opinions set forth above represent our conclusions based upon the documents, facts, representations and assumptions referred to above. Any material amendments to such documents, changes in any significant facts or inaccuracy of such representations or assumptions could affect the opinions referred to herein. Moreover, the A-1 Series’ ability to meet the requirements for qualification as a REIT for any taxable year depends upon the ability of the A-1 Series to meet, through actual annual operating results, requirements under the Code regarding gross income, assets, distributions and diversity of stock ownership. We have not undertaken to review the A-1 Series’ compliance with these requirements on a continuing basis. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the actual results of the A-1 Series’ operations for any single taxable year will satisfy the tests necessary to qualify as or be taxed as a REIT under the Code. Although we have made such inquiries and performed such investigations as we have deemed necessary to fulfill our professional responsibilities as counsel, we have not undertaken an independent investigation of all of the facts referred to in this letter, the Company Certificate of Representations or the Asset Manager Certificate of Representations.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
In connection with a proposed purchase from ETRE REIT, LLC (the "Company") of shares of limited liability company interests of Series A-1 (the "A-1 Series") of the Company (the "Common Shares"), ETRE Asset Management, LLC (the "Investor") hereby confirms, certifies and agrees as follows:
I.
Irrevocable Subscription for Shares

A.
The Investor irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company 33,333 Common Shares (the "Shares") at price per Share equal to the public offering price per Common Share to be paid by investors in the Company's initial public offering of the Common Shares (the "IPO"). The Investor agrees to and understands the terms and conditions upon which the Shares are being offered.

B.
The Investor understands and agrees that the Company reserves the right to accept or reject the Investor's subscription for the Shares for any reason or for no reason, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its acceptance by the Company, and the same shall be deemed to be accepted by the Company only when this Subscription Agreement is signed by a duly authorized person by or on behalf of the Company. In the event of rejection of the entire subscription, the Investor's Subscription Amount will be returned promptly to the Investor along with this Subscription Agreement, and this Subscription Agreement shall have no force or effect.

II.
Payment by the Investor and Issuance of Shares

Concurrently with the closing of the sale by the Company of Common Shares in the IPO, the Investor will pay the Subscription Amount, representing payment in full for the Shares by the Investor pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, and the Company will issue the Shares to and in the name of the Investor in the account designated by the Investor.
III.
Representations and Covenants of the Investor

The Investor understands that the Shares are being sold in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Regulation D thereunder for transactions involving limited offers and sales, and the Investor makes the following representations, declarations and warranties:
A.
The Investor is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act, as noted on Attachment A entitled "Eligibility Representations of the Investor" following the signature page to this Subscription Agreement. The Investor fully understands that the Shares are being offered in a transaction not involving any public offering within the United States within the meaning of the Securities Act and that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, may not be sold except in accordance with the Securities Act (a) pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act; or (b) pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The Investor understands that the registrar and transfer agent for the Shares will not be required to accept for registration or transfer any Shares acquired by the Investor except upon presentation of evidence, satisfactory to the Company and the transfer agent, that the proposed transfer complies with the foregoing. The Investor further understands that any certificates representing Shares acquired by the Investor will bear a legend reflecting the substance of this paragraph.

B.
The Investor has consulted with, as deemed appropriate, its attorneys, accountants or investment advisors with respect to the investment contemplated hereby and its suitability for the Investor. The Investor acknowledges that in making a decision to subscribe for the Shares the Investor has relied solely upon the independent investigations made by the Investor. The Investor is aware and acknowledges that the Company has been recently formed and has no operating history. The Investor's investment in the Shares is consistent with the investment purposes and objectives and cash flow requirements of the Investor and will not adversely affect the Investor's overall need for diversification and liquidity.

C.
The Investor has received such information as the Investor deems necessary in order to make an investment decision with respect to the Shares. The Investor represents and agrees that prior to the Investor's agreement to purchase the Shares, the Investor and the Investor's advisors, if any, have asked such questions, received such answers and obtained such information as the Investor deemed relevant to making an investment in the Shares. The Investor became aware of the offering of the Shares solely by means of direct contact between the Investor and the Company. The Investor did not become aware of, nor were the Shares offered to the Investor by, any other means including, in each case, by any form of general solicitation or general advertising. In making the decision to purchase the Shares, the Investor relied solely on information obtained by the Investor directly from the Company as a result of any inquiries by the Investor.

D.
The Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so that the Investor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Investor's investment in the Shares and is able to bear such risks and has obtained, in the Investor's judgment, sufficient information from the Company or its authorized representative to evaluate the merits and risks of such investment. The Investor has evaluated the risks of investing in the Shares and has determined that the Shares are a suitable investment for the Investor.

E.
The Investor is acquiring the Shares subscribed for herein for its own account and not for the account of others, for investment purposes only and not with a view to distribute or resell such Shares in whole or in part.

F.
The Investor agrees and is aware that no federal or state agency has passed upon the Shares or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of this investment.

G.
The Investor understands that there is no established market for the Shares and that no public market for the Shares may develop.

H.
The Investor is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Investor has the requisite power and authority, corporate or otherwise, to enter into and perform this Subscription Agreement. The execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription Agreement by Investor and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary company action. This Subscription Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Investor, and the execution, delivery and performance by the Investor of this Subscription Agreement will not constitute or result in a violation of the organizational documents of the Investor or a breach of or default under or conflict with any order, ruling or regulation of any court or other tribunal or of any governmental commission or agency or with any agreement or other undertaking to which the Investor is a party or by which the Investor is bound. This Subscription Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Investor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies.

I.
The Investor represents that neither it nor, to its knowledge, any person or entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with it, nor any person having a beneficial interest in it, nor any person on whose behalf the Investor is acting: (i) is a person listed in the Annex to Executive Order No. 13224 (2001) issued by the President of the United States (Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism); (ii) is named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons maintained by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control; (iii) is a non-U.S. shell bank or is providing banking services indirectly to a non-U.S. shell bank; (iv) is a senior non-U.S. political figure or an immediate family member or close associate of such figure; or (v) is otherwise prohibited from investing in the Company pursuant to applicable U.S. anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control laws, regulations, rules or orders (categories (i) through (v), each a "Prohibited Investor"). The Investor agrees to provide the Company, promptly upon request, all information that the Company reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable U.S. anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control laws, regulations, rules and orders. The Investor consents to the disclosure to U.S. regulators and law enforcement authorities by the Company and its affiliates and agents of such information about the Investor as the Company reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable U.S. anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control laws, regulations, rules and orders. The Investor acknowledges that if, following its investment in the Company, the Company reasonably believes that the Investor is a Prohibited Investor or is otherwise engaged in suspicious activity or refuses to provide promptly information that the Company requests, the Company has the right or may be obligated to prohibit additional investments, segregate the assets constituting the investment in accordance with applicable regulations or immediately require the Investor to transfer the Shares. The Investor further acknowledges that the Investor will have no claim against the Company or any of its affiliates or agents for any form of damages as a result of any of the foregoing actions.

J.
The Investor hereby (i) acknowledges that the Company and others will rely upon the Investor's confirmations, acknowledgments, agreements and binding commitment to purchase Shares, (ii) agrees that the Company is entitled to rely upon this agreement and the terms, representations and warranties hereof; and (iii) authorizes the Company to produce this Agreement or a copy hereof to an interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matter covered hereby.

IV.
Certain Covenants of the Company and the A-1 Series

A.
Registration.

1.
Filing After S-3 Eligibility. At any time following such time as the Company shall have qualified for the use of a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form to Form S-3) promulgated under the Securities Act, if the Investor in good faith believes it is not able to sell all of the Shares then held by it pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor rule) under the Securities Act without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required thereunder and without any volume restrictions, manner of sale requirements or notice requirements set forth in such Rule, the Company shall file as promptly as practicable, and use its reasonable efforts to have declared effective as promptly as practicable, a secondary only registration statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form to Form S-3) promulgated under the Securities Act, registering the resale of such Shares by the Investor (the “Registration Statement”). The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become and remain effective until the date on which the Investor has disposed of all of the Shares. The Investor agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement, including furnishing to the Company such information regarding itself, the Shares held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Shares held by it as shall be reasonably required to effect the effectiveness of the registration of such Shares.

2.
Limitations. The registration rights granted to the Investor in Section IV(A) are subject to the following limitations:

a.
The Company shall not be required to file any Registration Statement during any time the Company is subject to the 180 day lock-up period set forth in the underwriting agreement to be entered into by the Company, the A-1 Series and the Investor with the representatives of the underwriters in connection with the IPO.

b.
The Company shall not be required to file any Registration Statement or cause any Registration Statement to become effective during the seven days prior to and during the 90-day period beginning on the effective date of any underwritten demand registration effected pursuant to the registration rights agreement to be entered into by the Company and the A-1 Series with Lincoln Street Holdings, LLC in connection with the IPO.

c.
The Company shall be entitled to a single postponement for a reasonable time, not exceeding 10 days, of the filing of the Registration Statement or its efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective if at the time the right to delay is exercised, the Company shall determine in good faith that such offering would interfere with any acquisition, financing or other transaction which the Company or the A-1 Series is actively pursuing and is material to the Company or the A-1 Series or would involve initial or continuing disclosure obligations that would not be in the best interests of the Company or the A-1 Series; and

d.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company by notice to the Investor may postpone all sales under the Registration Statement for a reasonable time, not exceeding 30 days, if the Company shall determine in good faith that permitting such sales would interfere in any material respect with any material acquisition, financing or other transaction which the Company or the A-1 Series is actively pursuing or require premature disclosure (if the Company or the A-1 Series is so advised by its legal counsel) of any other material corporate development or event, which disclosure the Company believes would adversely affect the interests of the Company or the A-1 Series; provided that the Company may not implement more than one such postponement.

Any registration rights applicable to the Shares shall also apply to any shares of the Company issued or issuable with respect to the Shares as a result of any share split, share dividend, recapitalization, exchange or similar event or otherwise.
B.
The Company and the A-1 Series shall undertake any additional actions reasonably necessary to maintain the availability of and facilitate a disposition by the Investor of the Shares pursuant to any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section IV hereof.

V.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section V(B) shall not apply to Losses incurred by an indemnified person arising out of or based upon any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such indemnified person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof, any such preliminary prospectus or any such final prospectus or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto. 

C.
Contribution by the A-1 Series. To the extent any indemnification by the A-1 Series is prohibited or limited by law, the A-1 Series agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section V(B) to the fullest extent permitted by law; providedhowever, that no person involved in the sale of Shares who is guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) in connection with such sale shall be entitled to contribution from the A-1 Series involved in such sale of Shares who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation.

D.
Severability. If any provision of this Subscription Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith. Any provision hereof which may be held invalid or unenforceable under any applicable law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provisions hereof, and to this extent the provisions hereof, shall be severable.
