A. Declaration and Record Date. Subject to Article 5 and Article 8 of the Partnership Agreement, the holders of Class A Convertible Common Units will be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Partnership acting through the General Partner, out of Available Cash, cash distributions payable on a quarterly basis and, in accordance with Section 5.1(iii) of the Partnership Agreement, at the same time as regularly scheduled distributions are paid on the Common Units, to Class A Convertible Common Unit Limited Partners who are Partners on the Partnership Record Date with respect to such distribution (and to each such Class A Convertible Common Unit Limited Partner with respect to the Class A Convertible Common Units held by such Class A Convertible Common Unit Limited Partners on such Partnership Record Date), in an amount per unit described in Section 1.6B.
B. Distribution Amount. Any distribution declared and payable with respect to the Class A Convertible Common Units in accordance with Section 1.6A shall be equal to (i) if the amount of the Common Unit distribution payable at such time is equal to or greater than $0.40 per Unit, the Class A Convertible Common Unit Distribution Amount and (ii) if the amount of the Common Unit distribution payable at such time is less than $0.40 per unit, the Class A Convertible Common Unit Distribution Amount multiplied by a fraction (x) the numerator of which is the per unit amount of such distribution on the Common Units and (y) the denominator of which is $0.40. The holders of the Class A Convertible Common Units, shall not be entitled to any distributions, whether payable in cash, other property or otherwise, in excess of the Class A Convertible Common Unit Distribution Amount per quarter for each Class A Convertible Common Unit held by such holder on the applicable Partnership Record Date and, to the extent that more than one distribution is paid on the Common Units in any such quarter, no further distributions are required to be paid to the holders of the Class A Convertible Common Units so long as they have received per unit distributions equal to the full amount of the Class A Convertible Common Unit Distribution Amount for any such quarter at or prior to any such additional distribution on the Common Units.
8
C. Common Unit Distributions. For avoidance of doubt, subject to Section 1.6B, distributions on Class A Convertible Common Units and on Common Units shall be declared and paid contemporaneously.
Section 1.7 Allocations.
The allocations to which holders of Class A Convertible Common Units will be entitled with respect to their Class A Convertible Common Units will be determined in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, including, without limitation, Article 6 thereof.
Section 1.8 Percentage Interest.
The Percentage Interest of the Class A Convertible Common Unit Limited Partners with respect to the Class A Convertible Common Units shall be as set forth on the books and records of the Partnership maintained by the General Partner. The outstanding Class A Convertible Common Units shall be included in the number of outstanding Common Units on an as converted basis (i.e., each outstanding Class A Convertible Common Unit multiplied by the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Factor in effect on the date of determination) for the purpose of any calculation of the Percentage Interests of the Common Units (with respect to consents, voting or otherwise).
Section 1.9 Right to Convert Class A Convertible Common Units into Common Units.
A. Conversion Right. Subject to the terms hereof, a holder of Class A Convertible Common Units shall have the right (the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Right), at his, her or its option, at any time to convert all or a portion of his, her or its Class A Convertible Common Units into a number (or fraction thereof) of fully paid and non-assessable Common Units equal to (x) the number of Class A Convertible Common Units to be so converted multiplied by (y) the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Factor for the period in which such conversion is elected.
B. Notice. In order to exercise his, her or its Conversion Right, a holder of Class A Convertible Common Units shall deliver a notice to the Partnership (a Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Notice) in the form attached as Schedule L-2 hereto not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to a date (the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Date) specified in such Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Notice, together with any certificates representing such Class A Convertible Common Units that may have been issued to such holder. Each holder of Class A Convertible Common Units covenants and agrees with the Partnership that all Class A Convertible Common Units to be converted pursuant to this Section 1.9 shall be free and clear of all liens, claims and/or encumbrances whatsoever. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (but subject to Article 8 of the Partnership Agreement), a holder of Class A Convertible Common Units may deliver a Notice of Redemption pursuant to Section 8.6 of the Partnership Agreement relating to those Common Units that will be issued to such holder upon conversion of such Class A Convertible Common Units into Common Units in advance of the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Date; provided, however, that the redemption of such Common Units by the Partnership shall in no event take place prior to the later of (i) the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Date and (ii) the date that is one year following the issuance date of the Class A Convertible Common Units. For clarity, it is noted that the objective of this paragraph is to put a holder of Class A Convertible Common Units in a
9
position where, if he or she so wishes, the Common Units into which his or her Class A Convertible Units will be converted can be redeemed by the Partnership in accordance with Section 8.6 of the Partnership Agreement simultaneously with such conversion, with the further consequence that, if the Company elects to assume the Partnerships redemption obligation with respect to such Common Units under Section 8.6.B of the Partnership Agreement by delivering to such holder REIT Shares, then such holder can have such REIT Shares issued to him or her simultaneously with the conversion of his or her Class A Convertible Common Units into Common Units. The General Partner shall cooperate with a holder of Class A Convertible Common Units to coordinate the timing of the different events described in the foregoing sentence.
Section 1.10 Conversion Procedures.
Subject to any redemption of Common Units to be received upon the conversion of Class A Convertible Common Units, a conversion of Class A Convertible Common Units for which the holder thereof has given a Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Notice shall occur automatically after the close of business on the applicable Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Date without any action on the part of such holder of Class A Convertible Common Units, as of which time such holder of Class A Convertible Common Units shall be credited on the books and records of the Partnership with the issuance as of the opening of business on the next day of the number of Common Units issuable upon such conversion; provided, that in the event that a certificate representing any such Class A Convertible Common Units has been issued to such holder, the conversion shall not be effective unless and until such certificate has been delivered to the Partnership. After the conversion of Class A Convertible Common Units as aforesaid, the Partnership shall deliver to such holder of Class A Convertible Common Units, upon his or her written request, a certificate of the General Partner certifying the number of Common Units and remaining Class A Convertible Common Units, if any, held by such Person immediately after such conversion.
Upon the determination of the General Partner or the request of a holder of Class A Convertible Common Units, the Partnership shall issue one or more non-negotiable certificates representing the Common Units into which any Class A Convertible Common Units are converted in the name of the holder of such Common Units substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 to the Partnership Agreement.
Section 1.11 Right to Redeem Class A Convertible Common Units.
The Class A Convertible Common Units may not be redeemed prior to October 7, 2025. On or after such date, the Partnership may in its sole discretion at any time from time to time elect to redeem any or all of outstanding Class A Convertible Common Units, at a redemption price, payable in cash, equal to the product of (i) the number of Class A Convertible Common Units being redeemed, (ii) the Class A Convertible Common Unit Price and (iii) the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Factor. Immediately prior to any redemption of Class A Convertible Common Units, to the extent that distributions have not been paid to holders of Class A Convertible Common Units for the quarter in which such redemption is to occur, the Partnership shall pay a distribution in cash to the holders of Class A Convertible Common Units in an amount per unit equal to the Class A Convertible Common Unit Distribution Amount multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the number of days in such quarter through the redemption date and (B) the denominator of which is the total number of days in such quarter.
10
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the holders of Class A Convertible Common Units shall have the right, at their option, at any time before or after any notice of redemption and prior to redemption, to convert all or any portion of their Class A Convertible Common Units pursuant to Section 1.9 herein.
Section 1.12 Redemption Procedures.
Notice of redemption will be sent by the Partnership to the holders of the Class A Convertible Common Units to be redeemed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the date of redemption. Such notice shall state: (A) the redemption date; (B) the redemption price; (C) the number of Class A Convertible Common Units to be redeemed; (D) the place or places where the Class A Convertible Common Units are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and (E) that distributions on the Class A Convertible Common Units to be redeemed will no longer be paid after such redemption date. If less than all of the Class A Convertible Common Units are to be redeemed, the notice shall also specify the number of Class A Convertible Common Units to be redeemed.
Except to the extent that the Class A Convertible Common Units to be redeemed are converted into Common Units pursuant to Section 1.9 prior to the redemption date as permitted by Section 1.11, on or after the redemption date, the Class A Convertible Common Units to be redeemed shall be presented and surrendered, and any certificates representing such Class A Convertible Common Units that may have been issued with respect thereto shall be delivered, at the place designated in the notice of redemption and thereupon the redemption price of such Class A Convertible Common Units shall be paid to the holder of such redeemed Class A Convertible Common Unit and each redeemed Class A Convertible Common Unit shall be canceled.
From and after the redemption date (unless the Partnership defaults in payment of the redemption price), all distributions on the Class A Convertible Common Unit designated for redemption in such notice and not converted to Common Units prior to the redemption date, shall no longer be payable and all rights of the holders of the Class A Convertible Common Units, except the right to receive the redemption price thereof, shall cease and terminate, and such Class A Convertible Common Units shall not be deemed to be outstanding for any purpose whatsoever.
Section 1.13 Treatment of Capital Account.
For purposes of making future allocations under Article 6 of the Partnership Agreement, as amended from time to time, the portion of the Economic Capital Account Balance of the applicable holder of Class A Convertible Common Units that is treated as attributable to his or her Class A Convertible Common Units shall be reduced, as of the date of conversion, by the product of the number of Class A Convertible Common Units converted and the Common Unit Economic Balance.
Section 1.14 Capital Transactions; Mandatory Conversion in Connection with a Cash Capital Transaction.
A. If the Partnership, the General Partner or the Company shall be a party to any transaction (including without limitation a merger, consolidation, unit exchange, self-tender offer for all or substantially all Common Units or other business combination or reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of the Partnerships assets, excluding any transaction which requires an
11
adjustment to be made pursuant to Schedule L-1), in each case as a result of which Common Units shall be exchanged for or converted into the right to receive, or the holders of Common Units shall otherwise be entitled to receive, solely cash or other property (other than securities in the surviving company of any such transaction or Affiliate thereof) or any combination thereof (each of the foregoing being referred to herein as a Cash Capital Transaction), then the General Partner may, immediately prior to the Cash Capital Transaction, exercise its right to cause a Class A Convertible Common Unit Forced Conversion (as defined below) with respect to the maximum number of Class A Convertible Common Units then eligible for conversion.
B. In anticipation of the consummation of any Capital Transaction (as defined in Exhibit K), whether or not a Class A Convertible Common Unit Forced Conversion is applicable, the Partnership shall cause each holder of Class A Convertible Common Units to be afforded the right to receive in connection with such Capital Transaction in consideration for the Common Units into which his or her Class A Convertible Common Units may be converted the same kind and amount of cash, securities and other property (or any combination thereof) receivable upon the consummation of such Capital Transaction by a holder of the same number of Common Units, assuming such holder of Common Units is not a Constituent Person (as defined in Exhibit K), or an Affiliate of a Constituent Person. In the event that holders of Common Units have the opportunity to elect the form or type of consideration to be received upon consummation of the Capital Transaction, prior to such Capital Transaction the General Partner shall give prompt written notice to each holder of Class A Convertible Common Units of such election, and shall afford such holders the right to elect, by written notice to the General Partner, the form or type of consideration to be received upon conversion of each Class A Convertible Common Unit held by such holder into Common Units in connection with such Capital Transaction. If, in connection with any Cash Capital Transaction, a holder of Class A Convertible Common Units fails to make such an election, such holder (and any of its transferees) shall receive upon conversion of each Class A Convertible Common Unit held by him, her or it (or by any of his, her or its transferees) the same kind and amount of consideration that a holder of a Common Unit would receive if such holder of Common Units failed to make such an election.
C. Subject to the rights of the Partnership and the General Partner, the Partnership shall cause the terms of any Capital Transaction to be consistent with the provisions of this Section 1.14 and, with respect to any Capital Transaction (other than a Cash Capital Transaction) to enter into an agreement with the successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, for the benefit of any holders of Class A Convertible Common Units whose Class A Convertible Common Units will not be converted into Common Units in connection with the Capital Transaction that will contain provisions enabling the holders of Class A Convertible Common Units that remain outstanding after such Capital Transaction to preserve as far as reasonably possible under the circumstances the distribution, special allocation, conversion, and other rights set forth in this Exhibit L and the Partnership Agreement.
D. For purposes of this Section 1.14, the Partnership, at any time at the election of the General Partner in connection with a Cash Capital Transaction, shall cause all of Class A Convertible Common Units held by a holder of Class A Convertible Common Units to be converted (a Class A Convertible Common Unit Forced Conversion) into a number of Common Units (after giving effect to any adjustments made pursuant to Schedule L-1 and the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Factor). In order to exercise its right to cause a Class A Convertible Common Unit Forced Conversion, the Partnership shall deliver a notice (a
12
Class A Convertible Common Unit Forced Conversion Notice) in the form attached as Schedule L-3 hereto to the applicable holder not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Date specified in such Class A Convertible Common Unit Forced Conversion Notice. A Forced Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Notice shall be provided in the manner provided in Section 15.1 of the Partnership Agreement.
E. With respect to any Class A Convertible Common Units that are subject to a Class A Convertible Common Unit Forced Conversion and that are represented by a certificate, on and after the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Date specified in the Class A Convertible Common Unit Forced Conversion Notice, the certificates representing all such Class A Convertible Common Units shall automatically be deemed to represent the Common Units into which such Class A Convertible Common Units were so converted upon the Class A Convertible Common Unit Forced Conversion without any action required on behalf of the Partnership, the General Partner, the holder or any other Person.
Section 1.15 Redemption Right of Common Units Issuable Upon Conversion.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Partnership Agreement, the holders of any Common Units issuable upon the conversion of any Class A Convertible Common Units shall have the same rights (and subject to the same terms and conditions and to be effected in the same manner), beginning on or after the date that is one year following the issuance date of the Class A Convertible Common Units that were converted into such Common Units, to redeem all or a portion of such Common Units in accordance with Article 8 of the Partnership Agreement.
Section 1.16 Voting Rights.
The Class A Convertible Common Unit Limited Partners shall be entitled to vote on matters on which the holders of Common Units are entitled to vote, together with the holders of Common Units as a single class; provided, each Class A Convertible Common Unit Limited Partner (with respect to its Class A Convertible Common Units) shall have a vote equal to the number of Class A Convertible Common Units held multiplied by the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Factor in effect at the time such vote is taken. Additionally, the Class A Convertible Common Unit Limited Partners shall have the rights set forth in Section 1.17.
Section 1.17 Special Approval Rights.
The General Partner and/or the Partnership shall not, without the affirmative vote of holders of more than 50% of the then outstanding Class A Convertible Common Units affected thereby, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting (voting separately as a class), take any action that would materially and adversely alter, change, modify or amend, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, the rights, powers or privileges of such Class A Convertible Common Units, subject to the following exceptions:
(i) no separate consent of the holders of Class A Convertible Common Units will be required if and to the extent that any such alteration, change, modification or amendment would, in a ratable and proportional manner, alter, change, modify or amend the rights, powers or privileges of the Common Units provided that any such alteration, change, modification or amendment does not affect the provisions of Sections 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9 and 1.10 hereof, and Section 5.1(iii) of the
13
Partnership Agreement as it relates to distributions on the Class A Convertible Common Units and the Common Units or the rights, powers or privileges of holders of Class A Convertible Common Units thereunder;
(ii) a merger, consolidation or other business combination or reorganization of the Partnership, the Company or any of their Affiliates shall not be deemed to materially and adversely alter, change, modify or amend the rights, powers or privileges of the Class A Convertible Common Units, so long as either (x) in connection with any Cash Capital Transaction, the holders of Class A Convertible Common Units either will receive, or will have the right to elect to receive, for each Class A Convertible Common Unit an amount of cash or other property (other than securities in the surviving company of any such transaction of any Affiliate thereof) equal to the amount of cash or other property (other than securities in the surviving company of any such transaction of any Affiliate thereof) that would be paid in respect of such Class A Convertible Common Unit had it been converted into Common Units, as applicable, (y) the Class A Convertible Common Units remain outstanding with their terms materially unchanged, or (z) if the Partnership is not the surviving entity in the merger, consolidation or other business combination or reorganization, the Class A Convertible Common Units are exchanged for a security of the surviving entity with terms that are materially the same with respect to rights to allocations, distributions, redemption, conversion and voting as the Class A Convertible Common Units;
(iii) any creation or issuance of Partnership Units (whether ranking junior to, on a parity with or senior to the Class A Convertible Common Units in any respect), which either (x) does not require the consent of the holders of Common Units or (y) does require such consent and is authorized by a vote of the holders of Common Units, together with any other class or series of units of limited partnership interest in the Partnership upon which like voting rights have been conferred, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely alter, change, modify or amend the rights, powers or privileges of the Class A Convertible Common Units; and
(iv) any waiver by the Partnership of restrictions or limitations applicable to any outstanding Class A Convertible Common Units with respect to any holder or holders thereof shall not be deemed to materially and adversely alter, change, modify or amend the rights, powers or privileges of the Class A Convertible Common Units with respect to other holders. For the avoidance of doubt, the General Partner in its sole discretion may waive any restrictions or limitations (including transfer restrictions) applicable to any outstanding Class A Convertible Common Units with respect to any holder or holders at any time and from time to time. Any such determination in the General Partners discretion in respect of such Class A Convertible Common Units shall be final and binding. Such determinations need not be uniform and may be made selectively among holders of Class A Convertible Common Units, whether or not such holders are similarly situated, and shall not constitute the breach of any duty hereunder or otherwise existing at law, in equity or otherwise.
The foregoing special approval rights will not apply if, as of or prior to the time when the action with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required will be taken or be effective, all outstanding Class A Convertible Common Units shall have been converted and/or redeemed, or provision is made for such redemption and/or conversion to occur as of or prior to such time, including pursuant to Section 1.14.

Schedule L-1
Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Factor, as may be adjusted by the Adjustments to the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Factor (as defined below), shall be determined on a per unit basis and shall be equal to a fraction (which may be equal to, less than or greater than one (1)) calculated using the following equation:
Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Factor* |
|
=
|
|
Class A Convertible Common Unit Price [NPV of Excess Quarterly Distributions] +[NPV of Deficit Quarterly Distributions | ||
Class A Convertible Common Unit Price |
Excess Quarterly Distribution means, with respect to each quarter in which distributions are paid on the Class A Convertible Common Units in accordance with Section 1.6, the amount, if any, by which such per unit distribution on the Class A Convertible Common Units exceeds the per unit distribution(s) on the Common Units (including but not limited to special distributions) paid during such quarter (but in no event shall such amount be less than zero). So for example, if the per unit distribution paid on the Class A Convertible Common Units during any quarter is $0.64665 and the per unit distribution(s) paid on the Common Units during such quarter is $0.40, then the Excess Quarterly Distribution with respect to such quarter will be $0.24665 ($0.64665 minus $0.40); and for further example, if the per unit distribution paid on the Class A Convertible Common Units during any quarter is $0.64665 and the per unit distribution(s) paid on the Common Units during such quarter is $0.90, then the Excess Quarterly Distribution with respect to such quarter will be zero ($0.64665 minus $0.90, but not less than zero). For purposes hereof, the term special distributions shall mean distributions of any type or kind whatsoever on the Common Units in addition to, or in lieu of, regularly scheduled quarterly distributions.
Deficit Quarterly Distribution means, with respect to each quarter in which distributions are paid on the Common Units in accordance with Section 1.6 or otherwise, the amount, if any, by which such per unit distribution(s) on the Common Units (including but not limited to special distributions) exceed the per unit distribution on the Class A Convertible Common Units with respect to such quarter (but in no event shall such amount be less than zero). So for example, if the per unit distribution(s) paid on the Common Units during any quarter is $0.90 and the per unit distribution paid on the Class A Convertible Common Units during such quarter is $0.64665, then the Deficit Quarterly Distribution for such quarter will be $0.25335 ($0.90 minus $0.64665); and for further example, if the per unit distribution(s) paid on the Common Units during any quarter is $0.40 and the per unit distribution paid on the Class A Convertible Common Units during such quarter is $0.64665, then the Deficit Quarterly Distribution for such quarter will be zero ($0.40 minus $0.64665, but not less than zero).
NPV of Excess Quarterly Distributions means, as of the applicable Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Date, the aggregate amount of the present values, using a discount rate of 7.5% on an annual basis and using the XNPV function on Microsoft Excel or equivalent function to incorporate actual payment dates of Excess Quarterly Distributions, as of the issuance date of the Class A Convertible Common Units, calculated on a quarterly and per unit basis, of each of the Excess Quarterly Distributions for each and every quarter ending prior to or on the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Date.
NPV of Deficit Quarterly Distributions means as of the applicable Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Date, the aggregate amount of the present values, using a discount rate
Schedule L-1
of 7.5% on an annual basis and using the XNPV function on Microsoft Excel or equivalent function to incorporate actual payment dates of Deficit Quarterly Distributions, as of the issuance date of the Class A Convertible Common Units, calculated on a quarterly and per unit basis, of each of the Deficit Quarterly Distributions for each and every quarter ending prior to or on the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Date.
*Adjustments to the Class A Convertible Common Unit Conversion Factor. The General Partner shall maintain a correspondence between the Class A Convertible Conversion Factor and the amount of Common Units issuable upon the conversion of Class A Convertible Common Units, to take into account events with respect to the Common Units, such as distributions of additional Partnership Units, unit splits, subdivisions, reverse unit splits, combination, distribution of warrants or options and distributions of evidences of indebtedness or assets not received by the Partners pursuant to a pro rata distribution by the Partnership, so that the holders of the Class A Convertible Common Units will not be adversely affected by any such events. If more than one such event triggers an adjustment, the adjustment to the Class A Convertible Common Units need be made only once using a single formula that takes into account the multiple events as if they all occurred simultaneously. If in the reasonable opinion of the General Partner an adjustment to the Class A Convertible Conversion Factor is required to maintain the correspondence between the Class A Convertible Conversion Factor and the amount of Common Units issuable upon the conversion of Class A Convertible Common Units, the General Partner shall make such adjustment in such manner and at such time as the General Partner, in its reasonable discretion, may determine to be appropriate under the circumstances to maintain such correspondence. If an adjustment is made to the Class A Convertible Conversion Factor as herein provided, the Partnership shall promptly (i) file in the books and records of the Partnership an officers certificate setting forth such adjustment and a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, which certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment absent manifest error, and (ii) give notice thereof to the holders of Class A Convertible Common Units.
