                               5.45% NOTE DUE 2012

      POST APARTMENT HOMES, L.P., a Georgia limited partnership (the "Issuer,"
which term includes any successor under the Indenture hereinafter referred to),
for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co. or its registered
assigns (the "Holder"), upon presentation, the principal sum of ONE HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLARS ($100,000,000) on June 1, 2012 (the "Maturity Date"), and to pay
interest on the outstanding principal amount thereon from May 31, 2005, or from
the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly
provided for, semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year
(each an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing December 1, 2005, and at the
Stated Maturity, at the rate of 5.45% per annum, computed on the basis of a
360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months, until the entire principal
amount hereof is paid or duly provided for. The interest so payable, and
punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date will, as
provided in the Indenture (hereinafter defined), be paid to the person in whose
name this Note (the "Note") is registered at the close of business on May 18 of
each year (regardless of whether such day is a Business Day) for the June 1
Interest Payment Date and November 17 of each year (regardless of whether such
day is a Business Day) for the December


1 Interest Payment Date (each a "Regular Record Date"). Any such interest not so
punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the
Holder on such Regular Record Date, and may either be paid to the Person in
whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on a Special Record
Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee,
notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes not more than 15 days and not
less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time
in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any
securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as
may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.
Payments of the principal and interest on this Note will be made at the office
or agency of the Trustee (hereinafter defined) maintained for that purpose at
c/o SunTrust Robinson Humphrey Capital Markets, 125 Broad Street, 3rd Floor, New
York, New York 10004, or elsewhere as provided in the Indenture, in United
States Dollars; provided, however, that at the option of the Issuer payment of
interest may be made by (i) check mailed to the address of the Person entitled
thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register kept for the Notes
pursuant to Section 305 of the Indenture (the "Note Register") or (ii) transfer
to an account of the Person entitled thereto located inside the United States.
Payments of principal and interest in respect of this Note will be made by wire
transfer of immediately available funds, in such coin or currency as at the time
of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, so long
as this Note is in global form as described in Section 203 of the Indenture. If
this Note is not in global form, all such payments will be made by wire transfer
of immediately available funds if the Holder hereof at the applicable record
date shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Trustee, received by
the Trustee no later than 15 days prior to the applicable payment date, and
otherwise payment shall be made in accordance with Section 307 of the Indenture.
Such wire transfer instructions shall remain in effect until revoked in a
writing received by the Trustee from the Holder hereof.

      This Note is one of a fully authorized issue of securities of the Issuer
issued under an Indenture, dated as of September 15, 2000 (the "Indenture"), as
supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture between the Issuer and SunTrust
Bank, (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the
Indenture with respect to the Notes), to which Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective
rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Issuer,
the Trustee and Holders of the Notes, and of the terms upon which the Notes are,
and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series
designated as the "5.45% Notes due 2012," limited in the aggregate principal
amount to $100,000,000.

      The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the
entire indebtedness of the Issuer on this Note and (b) certain restrictive
covenants and the related defaults and Events of Default applicable to the
Issuer, in each case, upon compliance by the Issuer with certain conditions set
forth in the Indenture, which provisions apply to this Note.

      The Notes are redeemable, as a whole part or in part, at the option of the
Issuer, at any time or from time to time, by mailing notice to the registered
address of each Holder of such Notes at least 30 days but not more than 60 days
prior to the redemption. The redemption prices

                                       2


will be equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to
be redeemed or (2) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled
Payments (as defined below) on those securities discounted, on a semiannual
basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), at a rate
equal to the sum of the applicable Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 25
basis points. In either case, accrued interest will be paid to the date of
redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on
the Notes or any portion of the Notes called for redemption (unless the Issuer
defaults in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest). On or
before the redemption date, the Issuer will deposit with a paying agent (or the
Trustee) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on
the Notes to be redeemed on that date. If less than all of the Notes are to be
redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee by a method
the Trustee deems to be fair and appropriate.

      In addition to the covenants of the Issuer contained in the Indenture, the
Issuer makes the following covenants with respect to, and for the benefit of the
Holders of, the Notes:

            Limitations On Incurrence of Debt. The Issuer will not, and will not
      permit a Subsidiary to, incur any Debt (as defined below), other than
      intercompany Debt (representing Debt to which the only parties are Post
      Properties, Inc., a Georgia corporation (the "Company"), the Issuer and
      any Subsidiaries, but only so long as such Debt is held solely by any of
      the Company, the Issuer and any Subsidiary), if, immediately after giving
      effect to the incurrence of such additional Debt, the aggregate principal
      amount of all outstanding Debt of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on a
      consolidated basis determined in accordance with generally accepted
      accounting principles is greater than 60% of the sum of (i) Total Assets
      (as defined below) as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered in the
      Issuer's Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as
      the case may be, most recently filed with the Securities and Exchange
      Commission (or, if such filing is not permitted under the Securities
      Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with the Trustee) prior to the
      incurrence of such additional Debt and (ii) the increase in Total Assets
      from the end of such quarter including, without limitation, any increase
      in Total Assets resulting from the incurrence of such additional Debt
      (such increase together with the Issuer's Total Assets is referred to as
      the "Adjusted Total Assets").

            In addition to the foregoing limitation on the incurrence of Debt,
      the Issuer will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any
      Secured Debt other than intercompany Debt if, immediately after giving
      effect to the incurrence of such additional Secured Debt, the aggregate
      principal amount of all outstanding Secured Debt of the Issuer and its
      Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis is greater than 40% of Adjusted Total
      Assets.

            In addition to the foregoing limitations on the incurrence of Debt,
      the Issuer will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any
      Debt, other than intercompany Debt,

                                       3


      if the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service to the
      Annual Debt Service Charge (in each case as defined below) for the period
      consisting of the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended
      prior to the date on which such additional Debt is to be incurred shall
      have been less than 1.5 to 1, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to
      the incurrence of such Debt and to the application of the proceeds
      therefrom, and calculated on the assumption that (i) the incurrence of
      such Debt and any other Debt by the Issuer or its Subsidiaries since the
      first day of such four-quarter period and the application of the proceeds
      therefrom, including to refinance other Debt, had occurred at the
      beginning of such period, (ii) the repayment or retirement of any other
      Debt by the Issuer or its Subsidiaries since the first day of such
      four-quarter period had been repaid or retired at the beginning of such
      period (except that, in making such computation, the amount of Debt under
      any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon the average
      daily balance of such Debt during such period), and (iii) in the case of
      any increase or decrease in Total Assets, or any other acquisition or
      disposition by the Issuer or any Subsidiary of any asset or group of
      assets, since the first day of such four-quarter period, including,
      without limitation, by merger, stock purchase or sale, or asset purchase
      or sale, such increase, decrease or other acquisition or disposition or
      any related repayment of Debt had occurred as of the first day of such
      period with the appropriate adjustments to net income and Debt levels with
      respect to such increase, decrease or other acquisition or disposition
      being included in such pro forma calculation. For purposes of the
      adjustments referred to in clause (iii) of the preceding sentence, any
      income earned (or loss incurred) as a result of any such increase,
      decrease or other acquisition or disposition referred to in clause (iii)
      for a period less than such four-quarter period shall be annualized for
      such four-quarter period.

      Debt shall be deemed to be "incurred" by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries
      on a consolidated basis whenever the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on a
      consolidated basis shall create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become
      liable in respect thereof.

      Maintenance of Total Unencumbered Assets. The Issuer is required to
      maintain Total Unencumbered Assets of not less than 150% of the aggregate
      outstanding principal amount of the outstanding Unsecured Debt of the
      Issuer.
