If and as any Member or Person makes additional Capital Contributions to the Company as provided in this Section 4.1(b), each such Member shall receive additional Company Units based upon the Agreed Value of the property contributed.

Page 13

     (c)Return of Capital Contributions.Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Capital Contribution of each Nonmanaging Member will be returned to that Member only in the manner and to the extent provided in Article V and Article XIII hereof, and no Member may withdraw from the Company or otherwise have any right to demand or receive the return of its Capital Contribution to the Company (as such), except as specifically provided herein. Under circumstances requiring a return of any Capital Contribution, no Member shall have the right to receive property other than cash, except as specifically provided herein. No Member shall be entitled to interest on any Capital Contribution or Capital Account, notwithstanding any disproportion therein as between the Members.

Neither the Preferred Member nor the Nonmanaging Member shall be required to make any contribution to the capital of the Company other than its Capital Contribution.

     Section 4.2Redemption or Purchase of Nonmanaging Member Units.

     (a)Redemption of Nonmanaging Member Units.

     (1) Subject to the further provisions of this Section 4.2, beginning on the date one (1) year after the date of this Agreement, a Nonmanaging Member shall have the right (the “Redemption Right”) to redeem any or all of the Nonmanaging Units held by such Nonmanaging Member for cash equal to the Redemption Amount, subject to the Managing Member’s rights as set forth below. For purposes of this Agreement, the Redemption Amount shall be the cash value of Nonmanaging Units if such Nonmanaging Units were converted into Shares at the Value of such Shares. The Unit Adjustment Factor shall be that in effect at such time. The Redemption Right may be exercised by a Nonmanaging Member (a “Redeeming Member”) at any time and from time to time by delivering a Notice of Redemption to the Company. In the event the Managing Member does not exercise its right to substitute cash or Shares as set forth in Section 4.2(b), the Company shall pay the Redemption Amount no later than forty-five (45) days of receipt of the Notice of Redemption. The rights of a Nonmanaging Member as a holder of such Nonmanaging Units shall cease on the date the Redemption Amount is tendered by the Company.

     (2) In the event of any change in the Unit Adjustment Factor, the number of Nonmanaging Units held by each Nonmanaging Member shall be proportionately adjusted by multiplying the number of Nonmanaging Units held by such Nonmanaging Member immediately prior to the change in the Unit Adjustment Factor by the new Unit Adjustment Factor and dividing that product by the Unit Adjustment Factor applicable immediately prior to the event requiring such adjustment; the intent of this provision is that one Nonmanaging Unit remains exchangeable for one (1) Share.

Page 14

     (b)Managing Member’s Right to Substitute Cash or Shares.Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Managing Member shall have the right (after application of the Unit Adjustment Factor) to purchase a Redeeming Member’s Nonmanaging Units by paying one (1) Share of stock for each Unit or by paying the Redemption Amount to any Redeeming Member. The Managing Member shall have forty-five (45) days to pay cash to the Redeeming Member, and the Managing Member shall be treated as the owner of such Nonmanaging Units upon tendering the Shares or the Redemption Amount to the Nonmanaging Member. The Shares issued may be unregistered and shall be subject to a transfer restriction prohibiting the public sale of such Shares absent registration. A Nonmanaging Member’s unregistered Shares shall be registered pursuant to a registration rights agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D. In the event the Managing Member shall exercise its right to satisfy the Redemption Right in the manner described in this Section 4.2(b), each of the Redeeming Member, the Company and the Managing Member shall treat the transaction between the Managing Member and the Redeeming Member as a sale of the Redeeming Member’s Company Units to the Managing Member for federal income tax purposes; each Redeeming Member that the Managing Member has elected to pay the Shares or the Redemption Amount agrees to execute such documents as the Managing Member may reasonably require in connection with the payment of the Redemption Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.2, Shares shall not be issued if (i) in the opinion of Baker & Hostetler LLP or other counsel for the Managing Member, the Managing Member would, as a result thereof, no longer qualify (or in the opinion of counsel for the Managing Member, there is a material risk that the Managing Member no longer would qualify) as a REIT under the Code; or (ii) such exchange would in the written opinion of Baker & Hostetler LLP or other national law firm with experience in securities transactions, constitute or be more likely than not to constitute a violation of applicable securities laws.

     (c)Managing Member’s Right to Purchase Nonmanaging Member Units.The Managing Member shall have the right at any time to purchase all or any part of any Nonmanaging Member’s Nonmanaging Units by paying (after applying the Unit Adjustment Factor) one (1) Share for each Unit purchased or the Redemption Amount to such Nonmanaging Member. The Managing Member shall be treated for all purposes as the owner of such Nonmanaging Units upon tendering the Shares or the Redemption Amount.

     Section 4.3No Preemptive Rights.Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, no Person shall have any preemptive, preferential or other similar right with respect to (a) additional Capital Contributions or loans to the Company or (b) issuance or sale of any Company Units.

     Section 4.4Capital Accounts of the Members.

     (a)General.The Company shall maintain for each Member a separate Capital Account in accordance with the rules of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). Such Capital Account shall be increased by (i) the amount of all Capital Contributions made by such Member to the Company pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) all items of Company income and gain (including income and gain exempt from tax) computed in accordance with Section 4.4(b) hereof and allocated to such Member pursuant to Sections 6.1(a) and 6.2 of this Agreement, and decreased by (x) the amount of cash or Agreed Value of all actual and deemed distributions of cash or property made to such Member pursuant to this Agreement and (y) all items of Company deduction and loss computed in accordance with Section 4.4(b) hereof and allocated to such Member pursuant to Sections 6.1(b) and 6.2 of this Agreement.

Page 15

     (b)Income, Gains, Deductions and Losses.For purposes of computing the amount of any item of income, gain, loss or deduction to be reflected in the Members’ Capital Accounts, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, the determination, recognition and classification of any such item shall be the same as its determination, recognition and classification for federal income tax purposes determined in accordance with Section 703(a) of the Code (for this purpose all items of income, gain, loss or deduction required to be stated separately pursuant to Section 703(a)(1) of the Code shall be included in taxable income or loss), with the following adjustments:

     (1) Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), the computation of all items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be made without regard to any election under Section 754 of the Code which may be made by the Company;provided, that the amounts of any adjustments to the adjusted bases of the assets of the Company made pursuant to Section 734 of the Code as a result of the distribution of property by the Company to a Member (to the extent that such adjustments have not previously been reflected in the Members’ Capital Accounts) shall be reflected in the Capital Accounts of the Members in the manner and subject to the limitations prescribed in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m).

     (2) The computation of all items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be made without regard to the fact that items described in Sections 705(a)(1)(B) or 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code are not includable in gross income or are neither currently deductible nor capitalized for federal income tax purposes.

     (3) Any income, gain or loss attributable to the taxable disposition of any Company property shall be determined as if the adjusted basis of such property as of such date of disposition were equal in amount to the Company’s Book Value with respect to such property as of such date.

     (4) In lieu of the depreciation, amortization and other cost recovery deductions taken into account in computing such taxable income or loss, there shall be taken into account Depreciation for such fiscal year.

     (5) In the event the Book Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to Section 4.4(d) hereof, the amount of any such adjustment shall be taken into account as gain or loss from the disposition of such asset.

     (6) Any items specially allocated under Sections 6.2 or 6.3 hereof shall not be taken into account.

     (c)Transfers of Company Units.A transferee of a Company Unit shall succeed to a pro rata portion of the Capital Account of the transferor.

     (d)Unrealized Gains and Losses.

     (1) Consistent with the provisions of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), and as provided in Section 4.4(d)(2), the Book Values of all Company assets shall be adjusted upward or downward to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to such Company property, as of the times of the adjustments provided in Section 4.4(d)(2) hereof, as if such Unrealized

Page 16

Gain or Unrealized Loss had been recognized on an actual sale of each such property and allocated pursuant to Section 6.1 of this Agreement.

     (2) Such adjustments shall be made as of the following times: (i) immediately prior to the acquisition of an additional interest in the Company by any new or existing Member in exchange for more than a de minimis Capital Contribution; (ii) immediately prior to the distribution by the Company to a Member of more than a de minimis amount of Property as consideration for an interest in the Company; and (iii) immediately prior to the liquidation of the Company or the Managing Member’s interest in the Company within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g).

     (3) In accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) the Book Value of Company assets distributed in kind shall be adjusted upward or downward to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to such Company property, as of the time any such asset is distributed.

     (4) In determining such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss, the aggregate cash amount and fair market value of all Company assets (including cash or cash equivalents) shall be determined by the Managing Member using such reasonable method of valuation as it may adopt, or in the case of a liquidating distribution pursuant to Article XIII of this Agreement, be determined and allocated by the Liquidator using such reasonable methods of valuation as it may adopt. The Managing Member, or the Liquidator, as the case may be, shall allocate such aggregate fair market value among the assets of the Company (in such manner as it determines in its reasonable discretion to arrive at a fair market value for individual properties).

     (e)Modification by Managing Member.The provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b) and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Regulations. In the event the Managing Member shall determine that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts, or any debits or credits thereto (including, without limitation, debits or credits relating to liabilities which are secured by contributed or distributed property or which are assumed by the Company, the Managing Member, or any Nonmanaging Members) are computed in order to comply with such Regulations, the Managing Member shall make any necessary or appropriate adjustments so long as such adjustments would not materially adversely affect the Preferred Member.

ARTICLE V
DISTRIBUTIONS

     Section 5.1Requirement and Characterization of Distributions.Subject to the provisions of Article XV, the Managing Member shall distribute quarterly an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of Available Cash generated by the Company during such quarter to the Members who are Members on the Company Record Date with respect to such quarter as follows: (i) to the extent that there is sufficient Available Cash after payment of the Preferred Unit Distributions and any Accumulated Preferred Unit Distributions, both as defined in Section 15.2, each Nonmanaging Member shall be entitled to a distribution per Nonmanaging Unit in an amount equal to (a) the dividend per Share paid by the Managing Member for the same calendar quarter (the “Nonmanaging Members’ Preferred Return”)

Page 17

plus (b) any Excess Gain allocated to the Nonmanaging Member, and (ii) to the extent there is excess Available Cash after payment of the Preferred Unit Distributions, Accumulated Preferred Unit Distributions and the application of clause (i), such excess shall be distributed to the Managing Member in respect of its Company Units. In the event the Company shall distribute any Capital Transaction Proceeds to a Nonmanaging Member in excess of such Nonmanaging Member’s share of the Excess Gain, the number of Nonmanaging Units owned by such Nonmanaging Members shall be reduced to an amount equal to the quotient of (i) (A) the product of the market price of a Share on the date of the distribution times the number of Nonmanaging Units owned by such Nonmanaging Member immediately prior to such distribution, minus (B) the amount of Capital Transaction Proceeds distributed to such Nonmanaging Member in excess of the Nonmanaging Member’s share of the Excess Gain, divided by (ii) the market price of a Share on the date of the distribution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event may a Nonmanaging Member receive a distribution of Available Cash with respect to a Nonmanaging Unit if such Member is entitled to receive a distribution out of such Available Cash with respect to a Share for which such Nonmanaging Unit has been redeemed or exchanged. Further, if the Managing Member, pursuant to Section 11.6, or otherwise in its sole discretion with respect to items not covered in Section 11.6, determines that it would be equitable to (i) pay a Nonmanaging Member only a portion of the dividend per Share with respect to Nonmanaging Units not outstanding for an entire quarterly period, or (ii) split the dividend per Share amount between or among Members (or former Members) based on changes in ownership of Nonmanaging Units by such Nonmanaging Members (or former Nonmanaging Members) during a quarterly period, the Managing Member is hereby authorized to take such action.

     Section 5.2Amounts Withheld.All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any state or local tax law and Section 10.5 hereof with respect to any allocation, payment or distribution to the Managing Member, or any Nonmanaging Members or Assignees shall be treated as amounts distributed to the Managing Member or such Nonmanaging Members, or Assignees pursuant to Section 5.1 for all purposes under this Agreement.

     Section 5.3Distributions Upon Liquidation.Proceeds from a Liquidating Transaction shall be distributed to the Members in accordance with Section 13.2.

ARTICLE VI

     (e)Gain Characterization for Federal Income Tax Purposes. Any gain allocated to the Members upon the sale or other taxable disposition of any Company asset shall, to the extent possible, after taking into account other required allocations of gain pursuant to Section 6.2 below, be characterized for federal income tax purposes as Recapture Income in the same proportions and to the same extent as such Members have been allocated any deductions directly or indirectly giving rise to the treatment of such gains as Recapture Income.

     Section 6.2Special Allocation Rules.Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the following special allocations shall be made in the following order:

     (a)Minimum Gain Chargeback.Notwithstanding any other provisions of Article VI, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Company Year, each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Member’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 Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(f)(6). This Section 6.2(a) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirements in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and for purposes of this Section 6.2(a) only, each Member’s Adjusted Capital Account Deficit shall be determined prior to any other allocations pursuant to Section 6.1 of this Agreement with respect to such fiscal year and without regard to any decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during such fiscal year.

     (b)Partner Minimum Gain Chargeback.Notwithstanding any other provision of Article VI (except Section 6.2(a) hereof), if there is a net decrease in Partner Minimum Gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any Company fiscal year, each Member 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 Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Member’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)(5). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). This Section 6.2(b) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in such Section of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. Solely for purposes of this Section 6.2(b), each Member’s Adjusted Capital Account Deficit shall be determined prior to any other allocations pursuant to Article VI of this Agreement with respect to such fiscal year, other than allocations pursuant to Section 6.2(a) hereof.

     (c)Qualified Income Offset.In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1-704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), and after giving effect to the allocations required under Sections 6.2(a) and 6.2(b) hereof, such Member has an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit, items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the

Page 20

Regulations, its Adjusted Capital Account Deficit created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as quickly as possible.

     (d)Partner Nonrecourse Deductions.Any Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year shall be specially allocated to the Member 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)(2).

     (e)Code Section 754 Adjustments.To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any company asset pursuant to Section 734(b) or 743(b) of the Code is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, 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 item of gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such Section of the Regulations.

     Section 6.3Allocations for Tax Purposes.

     (a)General.Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.3, for federal income tax purposes, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as its correlative item of “book” income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated pursuant to Sections 6.1 and 6.2 of this Agreement.

     (b)To Eliminate Book-Tax Disparities.In an attempt to eliminate Book-Tax Disparities attributable to a Contributed Property or Adjusted Property, items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated for federal income tax purposes among the Members as follows:

     (1) (i) In the case of a Contributed Property, income, gain, loss and deductions (including depreciation) attributable thereto shall be allocated among the Members consistent with the principles of Section 704(c) of the Code that take into account the variation between the 704(c) Value of such property and its adjusted basis at the time of contribution; and (ii) any item of Residual Gain or Residual Loss attributable to a Contributed Property shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as its correlative item of “book” gain or loss is allocated pursuant to Sections 6.1 and 6.2 of this Agreement.

     (2) (i) In the case of an Adjusted Property, income, gain, loss and deductions (including depreciation) shall (A) first, be allocated among the Members in a manner consistent with the principles of Section 704(c) of the Code to take into account the Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to such property and the allocations thereof pursuant to Section 4.4 and (B) second, in the event such property was originally a Contributed Property, be allocated among the Members in a manner consistent with Section 6.3(b)(1)(i); and (ii) any item of Residual Gain or Residual Loss attributable to an Adjusted Property shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as its correlative item of “book” gain or loss is allocated pursuant to Sections 6.1 and 6.2 of this Agreement.

Page 21

     (3)Election of Method.To the extent Treasury Regulations promulgated pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code permit a partnership (and thus the Company) to utilize alternative methods to eliminate the disparities between the agreed value of property and its adjusted basis, the Managing Member may, in its sole discretion from time to time, elect any such method.

The execution, delivery or performance by the Managing Member or the Company of any agreement authorized or permitted under this Agreement shall not constitute a breach by the Managing Member of any duty that the Managing Member may owe the Company, the Nonmanaging Members, the Preferred Member or any other Persons under this Agreement or of any duty stated or implied by law or equity.

     (e)No Liability for Tax Consequences to Members.The Managing Member and the Company shall not have liability to any other Member under any circumstances as a result of an income tax liability incurred by such Member or its owners as a result of entering into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any action (or inaction) by the Managing Member pursuant to its authority under this Agreement unless the Managing Member deliberately took such action (or failed to take such action) in bad faith or with willful misconduct.

     Section 7.2Articles of Organization.To the extent that such action is determined by the Managing Member to be reasonable and necessary or appropriate, the Managing Member shall file amendments to and restatements of the Articles of Organization and do all the things to maintain the Company as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Ohio and each other jurisdiction in which the Company may elect to do business or own property. Subject to the terms of Section 8.5(a)(4) hereof, the Managing Members shall not be required, before or after filing, to deliver or mail a copy of the Articles of Organization, as it may be amended or restated from time to time, to any Nonmanaging Member or the Preferred Member. The Managing Member 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, qualification and operation of a limited liability company in the State of Ohio and any other jurisdiction in which the Company may elect to do business or own property.

     Section 7.3Restrictions on Managing Member’s Authority.The Managing Member may not, without the written Consent of a majority of the Nonmanaging Members, take any action in contravention of this Agreement, including, without limitation:

     (a) taking any action that would make it impossible to carry on the ordinary business of the Company, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement; and

Page 24

     (b) performing any act that would subject a Nonmanaging Member to liability as a member in any jurisdiction or any other liability except as provided herein or under the Act.

     Section 7.4Responsibility for Expenses.

     (a)No Compensation.Except as provided in this Section 7.4 and elsewhere in this Agreement (including the provisions of Articles V and VI regarding distributions, payments, and allocations to which it may be entitled), the Managing Member shall not be compensated for its services as Managing Member of the Company.

     (b)Responsibility for Ownership and Operation Expenses.The Company shall be responsible for and shall pay all expenses relating to the Company’s ownership of its assets and the operation of, or for the benefit of, the Company, and the Managing Member shall be reimbursed for all expenses it incurs relating to the Company’s ownership of its assets and the operation of, or for the benefit of, the Company. Such requirements shall be in addition to any reimbursement to the Managing Member as a result of indemnification pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof.

     (c)Responsibility for Organization Expenses.The Company shall be responsible for and shall pay all expenses incurred relating to the organization of the Company.

     Section 7.5Outside Activities of the Managing Member.Nothing herein contained shall prevent or prohibit the Managing Member or any employee or other Affiliate of the Managing Member from entering into, engaging in or conducting any other activity or performing for a fee any service including (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) engaging in any business dealing with real property of any type or location; acting as a director, officer or employee of any corporation, as a trustee of any trust, as a general partner of any partnership, or as an administrative official of any other business entity; or receiving compensation for services to, or participating in profits derived from the investments of, any such corporation, trust, partnership or other entity, regardless of whether such activities are competitive with the Company, and nothing herein shall require the Managing Member or any employee or Affiliate thereof to offer any interest in such activities to the Company or any Member.

     Section 7.7Indemnification.

     (a)General.The Company shall indemnify each Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, that relate to the operations of the Company as set forth in this Agreement in which such Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise; unless it is established that the act or omission of the Indemnitee was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty or willful misconduct; or in the case of any criminal proceeding, the Indemnitee believed that the act or omission was unlawful. The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order or settlement does not create a presumption

Page 25

that the Indemnitee did not meet the requisite standard of conduct set forth in this Section 7.7(a). The termination of any proceeding by conviction (but not upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent) creates a rebuttable presumption that the Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to that specified in this Section 7.7(a). Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be made only out of the assets of the Company.

     (b)In Advance of Final Disposition.Reasonable expenses incurred by each Indemnitee who is a party to a proceeding may be paid or reimbursed by the Company in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding upon receipt by the Company of (i) a written affirmation by such Indemnitee of the Indemnitee’s good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Company as authorized in this Section 7.7 has been met and (ii) a written undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnitee to repay the amount if it shall ultimately be determined that the standard of conduct has not been met.

     (c)Other Than by This Section.The indemnification provided by this Section 7.7 shall be in addition to any other rights to which any Indemnitee or any other Person may be entitled under any agreement, as a matter of law or otherwise, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity.

     (d)Insurance.The Company may purchase and maintain insurance, on behalf of the Indemnitees and such other Persons as the Managing Member shall determine, against any liability that may be asserted against or expenses that may be incurred by such Indemnitees or Persons in connection with the Company’s activities, regardless of whether the Company would have the power to indemnify such Indemnitees or Persons against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.

     (e)No Personal Liability for Nonmanaging Members or Preferred Member.In no event may an Indemnitee or the Company subject the Nonmanaging Members or the Preferred Member to personal liability by reason of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement.

     (f)Interested Transactions.An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 7.7 because the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

     (g)Binding Effect.The provisions of this Section 7.7 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees, their heirs, successors, assigns and administrators and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons.

     Section 7.8Liability of the Managing Member.

     (a)General.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Managing Member shall not be liable for monetary damages to the Company, any Members or any Assignees for losses sustained or liabilities incurred as a result of errors in judgment or of any act or omission if the Managing Member was not guilty of willful misconduct or fraud.

     (b)No Obligation to Consider Interests of Other Members.The Members expressly acknowledge that the Managing Member is acting on behalf of the Company and the Managing Member collectively, that the Managing Member is under no obligation to

Page 26

consider the separate interests of the other Members or their owners (including without limitation, the tax consequences to other Members or Assignees) in deciding whether to cause the Company to take (or decline to take) any actions which the Managing Member has undertaken on behalf of the Company, and that the Managing Member shall not be liable for monetary damages for losses sustained, liabilities incurred, or benefits not derived by other Members or their owners in connection with such decisions, provided that the Managing Member is not guilty of willful misconduct or fraud.

     (c)Acts of Agents.Subject to its obligations and duties as Managing Member set forth in Section 7.1(a) hereof, the Managing Member 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 agents. The Managing Member shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent.

     (d)Effect of Amendment.Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.8 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the Managing Member’s liability to the Company, the Nonmanaging Members and the Preferred Member under this Section 7.8 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.

     Section 7.9Other Matters Concerning the Managing Member.

     (a)Reliance on Documents.The Managing Member may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document believed by it, after reasonable inquiry, to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

     (b)Reliance on Consultants and Advisers.The Managing Member may consult with legal counsel, accountants, appraisers, management consultants, investment bankers and other consultants and advisers selected by it, and any action taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon the opinion of any of such Persons as to matters which such Managing Member reasonably believes to be within such Person’s professional or expert competence shall be conclusively presumed to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with such opinion.

     (c)Action Through Officers and Attorneys.The Managing Member shall have the right, in respect of any of its powers or obligations hereunder, to act through any of its duly authorized officers and a duly appointed attorney or attorneys-in-fact. Each such attorney shall, to the extent provided by the Managing Member in the power of attorney, have full power and authority to do and perform all and every act and duty which is permitted or required to be done by the Managing Member hereunder.

     (d)Actions to Maintain REIT Status or Avoid Taxation of the Managing Member. Notwithstanding any provision of the Act and except as specifically limited by this Agreement, any action of the Managing Member on behalf of the Company or any decision of the Managing Member to refrain from acting on behalf of the Company, undertaken in the good faith belief that such action or omission is necessary or advisable in order (i) to protect the ability of the Managing Member to continue to qualify as a REIT or (ii) to avoid the Managing Member

Page 27

incurring any taxes under Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code, is expressly authorized under this Agreement and is deemed approved by the Nonmanaging Members and the Preferred Member;provided,however, that prior to taking any such action (or refraining from taking any such action) that would, in the good faith judgment of the Managing Member, have a material adverse effect on the Nonmanaging Members taken as a whole or the Preferred Member, the Managing Member shall first (i) obtain a written opinion of Baker & Hostetler LLP or another national law firm with experience in tax matters that such action or omission is necessary or advisable in order (A) to protect the ability of the Managing Member to continue to qualify as a REIT or (B) to avoid the Managing Member incurring any taxes under Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code and (ii) in the case of an affected Preferred Member, (A) deliver a copy of such opinion to the Preferred Member, (B) notify such Preferred Member(s), in writing, of the proposed action (or inaction), and (C) refrain from acting or ceasing to act until at least ten (10) days after delivery to the Preferred Member(s) of such notice.

     Section 7.10Title to Company Assets.Title to Company assets, whether real, personal or mixed and whether tangible or intangible, shall be deemed to be owned by the Company as an entity, and no Member, individually or collectively, shall have any ownership interest in such Company assets or any portion thereof.

     Section 7.11Reliance by Third Parties.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Person dealing with the Company shall be entitled to assume that the Managing Member has full power and authority to encumber, sell or otherwise use in any manner any and all assets of the Company (including, without limitation, in connection with any pledge of Company assets to secure a loan or other financing to the Managing Member as provided by Section 7.1(a)(3)) and to enter into any contracts on behalf of the Company, and such Person shall be entitled to deal with the Managing Member as if it were the Company’s sole party in interest, both legally and beneficially. Each Member hereby waives any and all defenses or other remedies which may be available against such Member to contest, engage or disaffirm any action of the Managing Member in connection with any such dealing. In no event shall any Person dealing with the Managing Member or its representatives be obligated to ascertain that the terms of this Agreement have been complied with or to inquire into the necessity or expediency of any act or action of the Managing Member or its representatives. Each and every certificate, document or other instrument executed on behalf of the Company by the Managing Member or its representatives shall be conclusive evidence in favor of any and every Person relying thereon or claiming thereunder that (a) at the time of the execution and delivery of such certificate, document or instrument, this Agreement was in full force and effect, (b) the Person executing and delivering such certificate, document or instrument was duly authorized and empowered to do so for and on behalf of the Company and (c) such certificate, document or instrument was duly executed and delivered in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and is binding upon the Company.

     (1) to enter into any settlement with the IRS with respect to any administrative or judicial proceedings for the adjustment of Company items required to be taken into account by a Member for income tax purposes (such administrative proceedings being referred to as a “tax audit” and such judicial proceedings being referred to as “judicial review”), and in the settlement agreement the tax matters partner may expressly state that such agreement shall bind all Members, except that such settlement agreement shall not bind any Member (i) who (within the time prescribed pursuant to the Code and Regulations) files a statement with the IRS providing that the tax matters partner shall not have the authority to enter into a settlement agreement on behalf of such

Page 31

Member or (ii) who is a “notice partner” (as defined in Section 6231 of the Code) or a member of a “notice group” (as defined in Section 6223(b)(2) of the Code);

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

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

The taking of any action and the incurring of any expense by the tax matters partner in connection with any such proceeding, except to the extent required by law, is a matter in the sole and absolute discretion of the tax matters partner, and the provisions relating to indemnification of the Managing Member set forth in Section 7.7 of this Agreement shall be fully applicable to the tax matters partner in its capacity as such. The Nonmanaging Members shall not be entitled to cause the tax matters partner to take any of the actions described in clauses (1) through (6) above unless the Nonmanaging Member requesting that the tax matters partner take any such action furnishes the tax matters partner an opinion of a national law firm with experience in tax matters to the effect that it would be more likely than not that the taking of such action would result in a determination in favor of the Nonmanaging Member. All expenses with respect to obtaining the opinions described in the preceding sentence shall be borne by the Nonmanaging Member or Nonmanaging Members requesting the tax matters partner to take such action. The tax matters partner shall provide to the Members a timely summary of each oral and written communication from or to the IRS or any other taxing authority relating to any material tax matter.

     Section 10.4Organizational Expenses.The Company shall elect to deduct expenses, if any, incurred by it in organizing the Company ratably over a sixty (60) month period as provided in Section 709 of the Code.

     Section 10.5Withholding.Each Member hereby authorizes the Company to withhold from or pay on behalf of or with respect to such Member any amount of federal, state, local or foreign taxes that the Managing Member determines that the Company is required to withhold or pay with respect to any amount distributable or allocable to such Member pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any taxes required to be withheld or paid by the Company pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445 or 1446 of the Code. Any amount paid on behalf of or with respect to a Member shall constitute a loan by the Company to such Member, which loan shall be repaid by such Member within fifteen (15) days after notice from the Managing Member that such payment must be made unless (a) the Company withholds such payment from a distribution which would otherwise be made to the Member or (b) the Managing Member determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that such payment may be satisfied out of the available funds of the Company which would, but for such payment, be distributed to the Member. Any amounts withheld pursuant to the foregoing clauses (a) or (b) shall be treated as having been distributed to such Member. Each Member hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the Company a security interest in such Member’s Membership Interest to secure such Member’s obligation to pay to the Company any amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 10.5. In the event that a Member fails to pay any amounts owed to the Company pursuant to this Section 10.5 when due, the Managing Member may, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect to make the payment to the Company on behalf of such defaulting Member, and in such event shall be deemed to have loaned such amount to such defaulting Member and shall succeed to all rights and remedies of the Company as against such defaulting Member (including, without limitation, the right to receive distributions). Any amounts payable by a Member 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 theWall Street Journal, plus four (4) percentage points (but not higher than the maximum lawful rate) from the date such amount is due (i.e., fifteen (15) days after demand) until such amount is paid in full. Each Member shall take such actions as the Company or the Managing Member shall request in order to perfect or enforce the security interest created hereunder.

     Section 10.6Cooperation. The Managing Member shall use commercially reasonable best efforts (provided that the Managing Member shall not be obligated to incur any incremental out-of-pocket expenses that are not reimbursed by the Preferred Member) to the extent such efforts are in compliance with all applicable laws, (a) to notify the Preferred Member promptly if the Managing Member determines that the Company is required to withhold any tax with respect to distributions or allocations to be made to the Preferred Member, and (b) to provide the Preferred Member with any reasonably requested information or assistance in connection with the Preferred Member’s efforts to (1) obtain any available exemption from, or refund of, any withholding or similar taxes, or (2) comply with or seek exemption from any tax filing obligations in jurisdictions in which the Company now or hereafter, directly or indirectly, holds investments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing set forth in this Section 10.6 shall be construed as requiring the Managing Member to take any action which it determines to be adverse or detrimental to its interest, including, but not limited to, joining in the filing of a composite or similar joint tax return in any jurisdiction to the extent the Managing Member determines such filing is detrimental or adverse to its interest.

ARTICLE XI
TRANSFERS AND WITHDRAWALS

     Section 11.1Transfer.

     (a)Definition.The term “transfer,” when used in this Article XI with respect to a Company Unit, shall be deemed to refer to a transaction by which the Managing Member purports to assign its Membership Interest to another Person or by which a Nonmanaging Member purports to assign its Nonmanaging Member Membership Interest to another Person, and includes a sale, assignment, gift, pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation, mortgage, exchange or any other disposition by law or otherwise. The term “transfer” when used in this Article XI does not include any redemption of Company Units by a Nonmanaging Member or acquisition of Company Units from a Nonmanaging Member by the Managing Member or the Company pursuant to Section 4.2.

     (b)Requirements.Except as set forth in Article XV, no Nonmanaging Member Membership 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 Nonmanaging Member Membership Interest not made in accordance with this Article XI shall be null and void.

     Section 11.2Transfer of Managing Member Membership Interest.

     (a)General.Without the consent of the holders of a majority of Company Units, except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the Managing Member may not transfer any of its Managing Member Membership Interest (other than any transfer to an Affiliate of the Managing Member or a Permitted Transferee) or withdraw as Managing Member (other than pursuant to a permitted transfer), other than in connection with a transaction described in Section 11.2(b). Notwithstanding any permitted transfer of its Managing Member Membership Interest or withdrawal as Managing Member hereunder (other than in connection with a transaction described in Section 11.2(b)), the Managing Member shall remain subject to Section 7.7 of this Agreement unless such transferee Managing Member provides substantially similar rights to the Nonmanaging Members and the Nonmanaging Members expressly approve such rights in writing. If the Managing Member transfers all of its Managing Member Membership Interest (other than any transfer to an Affiliate of the Managing Member), the Preferred Member’s right to cause the Company to redeem its Preferred Units as contemplated by Section 15.5 shall be accelerated and become effective as of the date of such transfer. Thereafter, the Preferred Member may exercise such right by delivery of a Put Notice and otherwise in accordance with Section 15.5.

     (b)Transfer in Connection With Reclassification, Recapitalization or Business Combination Involving Managing Member.The Managing Member shall not engage in any merger, consolidation or other combination with or into another Person (unless the Managing Member survives) or sale of all or substantially all of its assets, or any reclassification, or recapitalization or change of outstanding Shares (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination as described in the definition of Unit Adjustment Factor) (“Transaction”), unless as a result of the Transaction each Nonmanaging Member thereafter remains entitled to exchange each Company Unit owned by such Nonmanaging Member (after application of the Unit Adjustment Factor) for an amount of cash, securities or other property equal to the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property paid to a holder of one (1) Share in consideration of one (1) Share at any time during the period on and from the date on which the Transaction is consummated which a Nonmanaging Member

Page 34

would have received after such Transaction, as if the Nonmanaging Member had exercised its Redemption Right immediately prior to the Transaction, provided that if, in connection with the Transaction, a purchase, tender or exchange offer shall have been made to and accepted by the holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Shares, the holders of Nonmanaging Units shall receive the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property which a Nonmanaging Member would have received had it exercised the Redemption Right and received Shares in exchange for its Nonmanaging Units immediately prior to the expiration of such purchase, tender or exchange offer.

     Section 11.3Nonmanaging Members’ Rights to Transfer.

     (a)General.Subject to Section 11.3(b) below or as provided in Article XV, no transfer, assignment, pledge or encumbrance of a Nonmanaging Member Membership Interest by a Nonmanaging Member is permitted (other than a transfer to a Permitted Transferee) without the prior written consent of the Managing Member, which may not unreasonably be withheld. In order to effect any transfer under this Section 11.3 which has been consented to by the Managing Member, the Nonmanaging Member must deliver to the Managing Member a duly executed copy of the instrument making such transfer and such instrument must evidence the written acceptance by the Transferee of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and represent that such assignment was made in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations.

     (b)Transfers Resulting in Corporation Status; Transfers Through Established Securities or Secondary Markets.Regardless of whether the Managing Member has provided its consent under Section 11.3(a), no transfer by a Nonmanaging Member of its Company Units (or any economic or other interest therein or right thereto) may be made to any person if (i) in the opinion of legal counsel for the Company, it would result in the Company being treated as an association taxable as a corporation, or (ii) such transfer is effectuated through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code.

     (c)Transfers to Holders of Nonrecourse Liabilities.Regardless of whether the Managing Member has provided its consent under Section 11.3(a), with the exception of the Preferred Member, no transfer (other than a transfer pursuant to the laws of inheritance or by will or a transfer to an Affiliate or a member of the Immediate Family of the Nonmanaging Member) of any Company Units may be made to a lender to the Company or any Person who is related (within the meaning of Section 1.752-4(b) of the Regulations) to any lender to the Company whose loan constitutes a Nonrecourse Liability without the consent of the Managing Member, in its sole and absolute discretion;provided, that as a condition to such consent the lender will be required to enter into an arrangement with the Company and the Managing Member to exchange or redeem for the Redemption Amount any Company Units in which a security interest is held simultaneously with the time at which such lender would be deemed to be a member in the Company for purposes of allocating liabilities to such lender under Section 752 of the Code.

     Section 11.4Substituted Nonmanaging Members.

     (a)Consent of Managing Member Required.Subject to Section 11.3, each Nonmanaging Member shall have the right to substitute a transferee as a Nonmanaging Member in his place but only if such transferee is a Permitted Transferee of the Nonmanaging Member, in which event such substitution shall occur if the Nonmanaging Member so provides. With respect to any other transfers, the Managing Member shall, however, have the right to

Page 35

consent to the admission of a transferee of the interest of a Nonmanaging Member pursuant to this Section 11.4 as a Substituted Nonmanaging Member, which consent may be given or withheld by the Managing Member in its sole and absolute discretion. The Managing Member’s failure or refusal to permit a transferee of any such interests to become a Substituted Nonmanaging Member shall not give rise to any cause of action against the Company or any Member.

     (b)Rights and Duties of Substituted Nonmanaging Members.A transferee who has been admitted as a Substituted Nonmanaging Member in accordance with this Article XI shall have all the rights and powers and be subject to all the restrictions and liabilities of a Nonmanaging Member under this Agreement.

     (c)Amendment of Exhibit A.Upon the admission of a Substituted Nonmanaging Member, or any Additional Member, the Managing Member shall amend Exhibit A to reflect the name, address, number of Company Units and Percentage Interest of such Substituted Nonmanaging Member or Additional Member and to eliminate or adjust, if necessary, the name, address and interest of the predecessor of any Substituted Nonmanaging Member.

     Section 11.5Assignees.If the Managing Member, in its sole and absolute discretion, does not consent to the admission of any permitted transferee under Section 11.4(a) as a Substituted Nonmanaging Member, such transferee shall be considered an Assignee for purposes of this Agreement unless there is a risk that recognition of such Assignee might cause the Company to be treated as a publicly traded partnership under the Code, in which case the Managing Member may refuse to recognize any rights of such Assignee. 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 Company and the share of Net Income, Net Losses, gain, loss and Recapture Income attributable to the Company Units assigned to such transferee, but shall not be deemed to be a holder of Company Units for any other purpose under this Agreement, and shall not be entitled to vote such Company Units in any matter presented to the Nonmanaging Members for a vote (such Company Units being deemed to have been voted on such matter in the same proportion as all Company Units held by Nonmanaging Members are voted). In the event any such transferee desires to make a further assignment of any such Company 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 Nonmanaging Member desiring to make an assignment of Company Units.

     Section 11.6General Provisions.

     (a)Withdrawal of Nonmanaging Member.No Nonmanaging Member may withdraw from the Company other than as a result of a permitted transfer of such Nonmanaging Member’s Company Units in accordance with this Article XI or pursuant to redemption of its Nonmanaging Units under Section 4.2.

     (b)Transfer of All Company Units by Nonmanaging Member.Any Nonmanaging Member who shall transfer all of his Company Units in a transfer permitted pursuant to this Article XI or pursuant to the Redemption Rights of all of its Nonmanaging Units under Section 4.2 shall be deemed to withdraw from the Company.

     (c)Timing of Transfers.Transfers pursuant to this Article XI may only be made on the first (1st) day of a fiscal quarter of the Company, unless the Managing Member otherwise agrees.

Page 36

     (d)Allocation When Transfer Occurs.If any Membership Interest is transferred during any quarterly segment of the Company Year in compliance with the provisions of this Article XI or converted pursuant to Section 4.2, Net Income, Net Losses, each item thereof and all other items attributable to such Membership Interest for such Company Year shall be divided and allocated between the transferor Member and the transferee Member by taking into account their varying interests during the fiscal year in accordance with Section 706(d) of the Code, using the method agreed upon between the transferor and the transferee. Solely for purposes of making such allocations, each of such items for the calendar month in which the transfer or redemption occurs shall be allocated to the Person who is a Member as of midnight on the last day of said month. All distributions of Available Cash with respect to which the Company Record Date is before the date of such transfer or redemption shall be made to the transferor Member, and all distributions of Available Cash thereafter shall be made to the transferee Member; all distributions of Capital Transaction Proceeds with respect to which the Capital Transaction Record Date is before the date of such transfer or redemption shall be made to the transferor Member, and all distributions of Capital Transaction Proceeds thereafter shall be made to the transferee Member.

     Section 13.8Reasonable Time for Winding-Up.A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding-up of the business and affairs of the Company and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Section 13.2 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 Members during the period of liquidation.

In addition to any information required by Law, each Preferred Redemption Notice shall state: (i) the redemption date, (ii) the Preferred Redemption Price, (iii) if the Preferred Units are certificated, the place or places where such Preferred Units are to be surrendered for payment of the Preferred Redemption Price, (iv) that distributions on the Preferred Units to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on such redemption date and (v) that payment of the Preferred Redemption Price will be made upon transfer or presentation and surrender of such Preferred Units to the Company, as the case may be.

     (2) If the Company delivers a Preferred Redemption Notice in respect of Preferred Units (which notice will be irrevocable) then, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the redemption date, the Company will deposit irrevocably in trust for the benefit of the holder of the Preferred Units funds sufficient to pay the Preferred Redemption Price. The Company will give irrevocable instructions and authority to pay and deliver such Preferred Redemption Price to the Preferred Member upon surrender or transfer of the Preferred Units in accordance with the Preferred Redemption Notice.

     Section 15.5Preferred Member’s Put Right.

     (a)Put Right. If any Preferred Units remain outstanding at any time after September 25, 2007 or as otherwise contemplated by Section 11.2(a) or Section 15.12(c), then, so long as any Preferred Units remain outstanding, the Preferred Member shall have the right by delivering 30 days advance written notice (a “Put Notice”), which notice shall be irrevocable, to the Managing Member to cause the Company to redeem all, but not less than all, of the Preferred Units for the Preferred Redemption Price, payable in immediately available funds. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Managing Member shall have the right to purchase the Preferred Units that are the subject of a Put Notice by paying the Preferred Redemption Price, at the option of the Managing Member, in immediately available funds, REIT Preferred Shares or a combination thereof. In the event the Managing Member shall exercise its right to satisfy the Preferred Redemption Price in the manner described in this Section 15.5(a), (i) each of the Preferred Member, the Company and the Managing Member shall treat the transaction between the Managing Member and the Preferred Member as a sale of the Preferred Member’s Preferred Units to the Managing Member for federal income tax purposes, (ii) the number of REIT Preferred Shares to be issued to the Preferred Member in respect of the Preferred Units shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the portion of the Preferred Redemption Price being paid in REIT Preferred Shares divided by the liquidation preference of the REIT Preferred Shares, and (iii) the Managing Member shall be treated for all purposes as the owner of such Preferred Units upon tendering the Preferred Redemption Price.

     (b)Procedures for Put.

Page 46

     (1) Following receipt of a Put Notice, the Company or the Managing Member, as the case may be, shall deliver a notice (“Put Procedure Notice”) to the holder of Preferred Units not less than ten (10) days prior to the redemption date, addressed to the Preferred Member in accordance with the terms hereof at the Preferred Member’s address as it appears on the records of the Company. In addition to any information required by Law, the Put Procedure Notice shall state: (i) the redemption date, (ii) the Preferred Redemption Price, (iii) if the Preferred Units are certificated, the place or places where such Preferred Units are to be surrendered for payment of the Preferred Redemption Price, (iv) that distributions on the Preferred Units to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on such redemption date, (v) that payment of the Preferred Redemption Price will be made upon transfer or presentation and surrender of such Preferred Units to the Company, as the case may be and (vi) what portion of the Preferred Redemption Price will be paid in immediately available funds and what portion will be paid in REIT Preferred Shares.

     (2) Following delivery of a Put Procedure Notice, then, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the redemption date, the Managing Member or the Company, as the case may be, will deposit irrevocably in trust for the benefit of the holder of the Preferred Units (i) if all or a portion of the Preferred Redemption Price is being paid in immediately available funds, funds sufficient to pay that portion of the Preferred Redemption Price being paid in immediately available funds, and (ii) subject to the last sentence of this Section 15.5(b)(2), if all or a portion of the Preferred Redemption Price is being satisfied pursuant to the issuance of REIT Preferred Shares, certificates evidencing a number of REIT Preferred Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the portion of the Preferred Redemption Price being paid in REIT Preferred Shares divided by the liquidation preference of the REIT Preferred Shares. If the Managing Member elects to cause only a portion of the Preferred Redemption Price to be paid pursuant to the issuance of REIT Preferred Shares, the remainder of the Preferred Redemption Price shall be paid in immediately available funds. If the Managing Member elects to cause all or a portion of the Preferred Redemption Price to be paid pursuant to the issuance of REIT Preferred Shares, the Preferred Member shall be entitled to certain rights with respect to the registration of such shares for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to the registration rights agreement signed as of the date of this Agreement between the Managing Member and the Preferred Member in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Company will give irrevocable instructions and authority to pay and deliver such Preferred Redemption Price to the Preferred Member upon surrender or transfer of the Preferred Units in accordance with the Put Procedure Notice.

     (3) As a condition to the redemption of Preferred Units, the Managing Member may require the Preferred Member to make such representations as may be reasonably necessary for the Managing Member to establish that the issuance of REIT Preferred Shares in redemption of the Preferred Units shall not be required to be registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws. Any REIT Preferred Shares issued pursuant to this Section shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or restriction other than those provided in the articles of incorporation or the by-laws of the Managing Member, the

Page 47

Securities Act and relevant state securities or blue sky laws. The certificates representing the REIT Preferred Shares issued upon exchange of the Preferred Units shall, in addition to any legend required by the Managing Member’s articles of incorporation, contain the following legend:

     THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT (A) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) OR (B) IF THE COMPANY HAS BEEN FURNISHED WITH A SATISFACTORY OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER OF THE UNITS REPRESENTED HEREBY, OR OTHER EVIDENCE SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SUCH TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION IS EXEMPT FROM THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5 OF THE ACT AND THE RULES AND REGULATIONS THEREUNDER.

     (4) In the event of an exchange of Preferred Units for REIT Preferred Shares, an amount equal to the Accumulated Preferred Unit Distributions to the date of exchange on any Preferred Units tendered for exchange shall continue to accrue on such Preferred Units, which shall remain outstanding following such exchange, with the Managing Member as the holder of such Preferred Units. Fractional REIT Preferred Shares are not to be issued upon exchange but, in lieu thereof, the Managing Member will pay a cash adjustment based upon the liquidation preference of the REIT Preferred Shares on the day prior to the exchange date as determined in good faith by the Managing Member.

     (c)Registration of Preferred Shares; Underwriting Agreement

     (1) If the Managing Member elects to deliver REIT Preferred Shares in satisfaction of all or a portion of the Preferred Redemption Price (the “Preferred Shares Election”), the Managing Member will use its reasonable best efforts (i) to file a Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to cause such Registration Statement to be effective upon issuance of such REIT Preferred Shares and (ii) to keep the Registration Statement effective until the earlier of (A) the date on which the Preferred Member consummates the sale of all of the REIT Preferred Shares registered under such registration statement, or (B) the date on which all of the REIT Preferred Shares are eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 144(k) (or any successor provision) or in a single transaction pursuant to Rule 144(e) (or any successor provision) under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Managing Member makes the Preferred Shares Election, prior to issuance of such REIT Preferred Shares, the Managing Member shall be permitted to delay issuance of such REIT Preferred Shares for a period not to exceed forty five (45) days after the specified redemption date (the “Suspension Period”) upon delivery of a written notice by the Managing Member to the Preferred Member (a “Suspension Notice”) that a negotiation or consummation of a transaction by the

Page 48

Managing Member or any of its subsidiaries is pending or an event has occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event would require disclosure by the Managing Member in a Registration Statement of material information which the Managing Member has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential or the nondisclosure of which in the Registration Statement might cause the Registration Statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements.

     (2) If the Managing Member makes a Preferred Shares Election and the Managing Member will be unable to deliver REIT Preferred Shares subject to an effective Registration Statement on the Scheduled Redemption Date (taking into account any Suspension Period), (i) the Managing Member shall deliver written notice thereof to the Preferred Member at least two (2) Business Days prior to such Scheduled Redemption Date and, upon receipt of such written notice, (ii) the Preferred Member shall have the right to delay issuance of such REIT Preferred Shares for a period of up to 730 days (the “Preferred Member Suspension Period”). At all times during the Preferred Member Suspension Period, the Managing Member shall use its reasonable best efforts (A) to file a Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to cause such Registration Statement to be effective upon issuance of such REIT Preferred Shares and (B) to keep the Registration Statement effective until the earlier of (x) the date on which the Preferred Member consummates the sale of all of the REIT Preferred Shares registered under such registration statement, or (y) the date on which all of the REIT Preferred Shares are eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 144(k) (or any successor provision) or in a single transaction pursuant to Rule 144(e) (or any successor provision) under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if upon expiration of the Preferred Member Suspension Period the Managing Member, despite using its reasonable best efforts to cause a Registration Statement to become effective is unsuccessful, shall issue REIT Preferred Shares to the Preferred Member and shall continue to use its reasonable best efforts to satisfy clause (A) and clause (B) of the preceding sentence. If at any time REIT Preferred Shares are issued to the Preferred Member in redemption of Preferred Units that are not subject to an effective Registration Statement, the Preferred Member shall be entitled to liquidated damages as contemplated by Section 7(d) of the Purchase Agreement.

     (3) If the Managing Member issues REIT Preferred Shares in satisfaction of all or a portion of the Preferred Redemption Price, the Preferred Member or its designee agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to distribute such REIT Preferred Shares in an underwritten offering no later than 35 days following the date of delivery of such REIT Preferred Shares and further agrees that as a result of any such distribution no single purchaser of REIT Preferred Shares in such underwritten offering will own more than 9.75% of such class of REIT Preferred Shares without the prior written consent of the Managing Member. In connection with any such underwritten offering, the Preferred Member or its designee shall serve as the underwriter (the “Underwriter”) pursuant to an underwriting agreement on prevailing market terms, which shall provide that the Underwriter shall be paid an underwriting fee equal to 3.15% of the aggregate liquidation preference of the REIT Preferred Shares subject to such offering upon the consummation thereof and that the parties will pay certain costs

Page 49

and expenses as contemplated by Section 4 of the Registration Rights Agreement.

     Section 15.6Additional Redemption Provisions. On and after the date of any redemption of Preferred Units pursuant to Section 15.4 or Section 15.5, distributions will cease to accumulate on the Preferred Units, unless the Company defaults in the payment thereof. If any date fixed for redemption of Preferred Units is not a Business Day, then payment of the Preferred Redemption Price payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) except that, if such Business Day falls in the next calendar year, such payment will be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date fixed for redemption. If payment of the Preferred Redemption Price is improperly withheld or refused and not paid by the Company, distributions on such Preferred Units will continue to accumulate from the original redemption date to the date of payment.

     Section 15.7Voting Rights.

     (a)General.The Preferred Member will not have any voting rights or right to consent to any matter requiring the consent or approval of the Managing Member or Nonmanaging Members, except as set forth below.

     (b)Certain Voting Rights.So long as any Preferred Units remain outstanding, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the Preferred Member (i) authorize or create, or increase the authorized or issued amount of, any Units or Membership Interests ranking senior to or on parity with the Preferred Units with respect to payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution, or winding up or reclassify any Units or Membership Interests into, or create, authorize, or issue any obligation or security convertible into, exchangeable for or evidencing the right to purchase, any such Units or Membership Interests; or (ii) amend, alter, or repeal the provisions of this Agreement, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise (an “event”), so as to adversely affect any right, preference, privilege, or voting power of the Preferred Units or the Preferred Member; however, as long as the Preferred Units remain outstanding with their terms materially unchanged, taking into account that upon the occurrence of an event, the Company may not be the surviving entity, the occurrence of an event described in clause (ii) above of this paragraph shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges, or voting power of the holders of Preferred Units, and any increase in the amount of the authorized Preferred Units or the creation or issuance of any other series of Preferred Units or Membership Interests ranking on a parity with or junior to the Preferred Units with respect to payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges, or voting powers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Preferred Units shall not be entitled to vote, and the foregoing voting provisions shall not apply, if at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required is effected, all outstanding Preferred Units have been redeemed or called for redemption, and sufficient funds have been deposited in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Preferred Units to effect such redemption.

     Section 15.8Restrictions on Transfer of Preferred Units.

     (a)Transfer Restrictions. Except as contemplated by Sections 15.8(b) and 15.8(c), the Preferred Member may not sell, assign, gift, pledge, encumber, hypothecate, mortgage, exchange, or otherwise dispose of any Preferred Units without the prior written consent of the Managing Member.

     (b)Permitted Transfers. If (1) the Preferred Member delivers a Put Notice to the Managing Member in accordance with Section 15.5(a), and (2) the Managing Member delivers a Suspension Notice as contemplated by Section 15.5 or otherwise defaults in its redemption obligation, then the Preferred Member shall have the right to transfer all or a portion of its Preferred Units to one or more Persons selected by the Preferred Member in its discretion, provided that the Preferred Member delivers evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Member including, if requested by the Managing Member, an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Member that the proposed transfer may be effected without registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Preferred Member shall have no right to transfer the Preferred Units if (i) in the opinion of legal counsel for the Managing Member, it would result in the Company being treated as an association taxable as a corporation, or (ii) such transfer is effectuated through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code.

     (c)Transfer Requirements. In order to effect any transfer made in accordance with this Section 15.8, the Preferred Member must deliver to the Managing Member a duly executed copy of the instrument making such transfer and such instrument must evidence the written acceptance by the transferee(s) of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and represent that such transfer was made in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations.

     (b)Affiliate Transactions. Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, the Company shall not, nor will it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into any transaction (including, without limitation, the purchase or sale of any property or service) with, or make any payment or transfer to, any Affiliate of the Company except in the ordinary course of

     (d)Net Operating Income.
