Right to Exchange (i) Series A Preferred Units will be exchangeable in whole but not in part unless expressly otherwise provided herein at anytime on or after September 30, 2015, at the option of 51% of the Holders of all outstanding Series A Preferred Units, for authorized but previously unissued REIT Series A Preferred Shares at an exchange rate of one REIT Series A Preferred Share from the General Partner for one Series A Preferred Unit, subject to adjustment as described below (the “Exchange Price”), provided that the Series A Preferred Units will become exchangeable at any time, in whole but not in part unless expressly otherwise provided herein, at the option of 51% of the Holders of all outstanding Series A Preferred Units for REIT Series A Preferred Shares if (y) at any time full distributions shall not have been timely made on any Series A Preferred Unit with respect to six (6) prior quarterly distribution periods, whether or not consecutive, provided, however, that a distribution in respect of Series A Preferred Units shall be considered timely made if made within two (2) Business Days after the applicable Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date if at the time of such late payment there shall not be any prior quarterly distribution periods in respect of which full distributions were not timely made or (z) upon receipt by a Holder or Holders of Series A Preferred Units of (A) notice from the General Partner that the General Partner or a Subsidiary of the General Partner has taken the position that the Partnership is, or upon the consummation of an identified event in the immediate future will be, a PTP and (B) an opinion rendered by outside nationally recognized independent counsel familiar with such matters addressed to a Holder or Holders of Series A Preferred Units, that the Partnership is or likely is, or upon the occurrence of a defined event in the immediate future will be or likely will be, a PTP. In addition, the Series A Preferred Units may be exchanged for REIT Series A Preferred Shares, in whole but not in part unless expressly otherwise provided herein, at the option of 51% of the Holders of all outstanding Series A Preferred Units prior to September 30, 2015 and after February 6, 2001 if such Holders of a Series A Preferred Units shall deliver to the General Partner either (i) a private letter ruling addressed to such Holder of Series A Preferred Units or (ii) an opinion of independent counsel reasonably acceptable to the General Partner based on the enactment of temporary or final Treasury Regulations or the publication of a Revenue Ruling, in either case to the effect that an exchange of the Series A Preferred Units at such earlier time would not cause the Series A Preferred Units to be considered “stock and securities” within the meaning of section 351(e) of the Code for purposes of determining whether the Holder of the Series A Preferred Units is an “investment company” under section 721(b) of the Code if an exchange is permitted at such earlier date. Furthermore, the Series A Preferred Units, if the Series A Contributor so determines, may be exchanged in whole but not in part (regardless of whether held by the Series A Contributor) for REIT Series A Preferred Shares (but only if the exchange in whole may be accomplished consistently with the ownership limitations set forth under the Series A Articles Supplementary (as defined herein), taking into account exceptions thereto) if at any time (i) the Partnership takes the position that assets and income of the Partnership are such as would not permit the Partnership to satisfy the income and assets tests of Section 856 of the Code if the Partnership were a real estate investment trust within the meaning of the Code or (ii) any Holder of the Series A Preferred Units shall deliver to the Partnership and the Company an opinion of independent counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that the assets and income of the Partnership are such as would not permit the Partnership to satisfy the income and assets tests of Section 856 of the Code if the Partnership were a real estate investment trust within the meaning of the Code. (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 16.7.A(i), if an Exchange Notice (as defined herein) has been delivered to the General Partner, then the General Partner may, at its option, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Exchange Notice, elect to cause the Partnership to redeem all or a portion of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units for cash in an amount equal to the original Capital Contribution per Series A Preferred Unit and all accrued and unpaid distributions thereon to the date of redemption. If the General Partner elects to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Units, the number of Series A Preferred Units held by each Holder to be redeemed shall equal such Holder’s pro rata share (based on the percentage of the aggregate number of outstanding Series A Preferred Units that the total number of Series A Preferred Units held by such Holder represents) of the aggregate number of Series A Preferred Units being redeemed. (iii) In the event an exchange of all Series A Preferred Units pursuant to Section 16.7.A would violate the provisions on ownership limitation of the General Partner set forth in Section 7 of the Articles Supplementary to the Charter with respect to REIT Series A Preferred Shares (the “Series A Articles Supplementary”), each Holder of Series A Preferred Units shall be entitled to exchange, pursuant to the provisions of Section 16.7.B, a number of Series A Preferred Units which would comply with the provisions on the ownership limitation of the General Partner set forth in such Section 7 of the Series A Articles Supplementary, with respect to such Holder, and any Series A Preferred Units not so exchanged (the “Excess Units”) shall be redeemed by the Partnership for cash in an amount equal to the original Capital Contribution per Excess Unit, plus any accrued and unpaid distributions thereon to the date of redemption subject to any restriction thereon contained in any debt instrument or agreement of the Partnership. In the event an exchange would result in Excess Units, as a condition to such exchange, each Holder of such units agrees to provide representations and covenants reasonably requested by the General Partner relating to (i) the widely held nature of the interests in such Holder, sufficient to assure the General Partner that the Holder’s ownership of stock of the General Partner (without regard to the limits described above) will not cause any individual to own in excess of 6.2% of the stock of the General Partner; and (ii) to the extent such Holder can so represent and covenant without obtaining information from its owners (other than one or more direct or indirect parent corporations, limited liability companies or partnerships and not the holders of any interests in any such parent), the Holder’s ownership of tenants of the Partnership and its affiliates. For purposes of determining the number of Excess Units under this Section 16.7.A(iii), the “Beneficial Ownership Limit” and “Constructive Ownership Limit” set forth in the Series A Articles Supplementary shall be deemed to be 0.8 percentage points less than the limits set forth in the Series A Articles Supplementary. To the extent the General Partner would not be able to pay the cash set forth above in exchange for the Excess Units, and to the extent consistent with the Charter, the General Partner agrees that it will grant to the Holders of the Series A Preferred Units exceptions to the Beneficial Ownership Limit and Constructive Ownership Limit set forth in the Series A Articles Supplementary sufficient to allow such Holders to exchange all of their Series A Preferred Units for REIT Series A Preferred Stock, provided such Holders furnish to the General Partner representations acceptable to the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion which assure the General Partner that such exceptions will not jeopardize the General Partner’s tax status as a REIT for purposes of federal and applicable state law. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no Series A Limited Partner shall be entitled to effect an exchange of Series A Preferred Units for REIT Series A Preferred Shares to the extent that ownership or right to acquire such shares would cause the Partner or any other Person or, in the opinion of counsel selected by the General Partner, may cause the Partner or any other Person, to violate the restrictions on ownership and transfer of REIT Series A Preferred Shares set forth in the Charter. To the extent any such attempted exchange for REIT Series A Preferred Shares would be in violation of the previous sentence, it shall be void ab initio and such Series A Limited Partner shall not acquire any rights or economic interest in the REIT Series A Preferred Shares otherwise issuable upon such exchange. (iv) The redemption of Series A Preferred Units described in Section 16.7.A(ii) and (iii) shall be subject to the provisions of Section 16.4.B(i) and Section 16.4.D(ii); provided, however, that the term “Redemption Price” in such Sections 16.4.B(i) and 16.4.D(ii) shall be read to mean the original Capital Contribution per Series A Preferred Unit being redeemed as set forth on Exhibit A plus all accrued and unpaid distributions to the redemption date.
