If there is a net decrease in “partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” (as that term is defined in Sections 1.704-2(i)(2) and (3) of the Regulations) during any year, each Partner who has a share of that partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain as of the beginning of the Fiscal Year shall, to the extent required by Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Regulations, be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) equal to that Partner’s share of the net decrease in partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain. Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in accordance with Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Regulations. This Section 3.2(b) is intended to comply with the requirement in Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c) Qualified Income Offset. If any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in 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) of the Regulations, items of Partnership income and gain shall be specially allocated to each such Partner in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account deficit of such Partner as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 3.2(c) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Partner would have an Adjusted Capital Account deficit after all other allocations provided for in this Section 3 have been tentatively made as if this Section 3.2(c) were not in the Agreement.

(d) Nonrecourse Deductions. “Nonrecourse deductions” (as that term is defined in Section 1.704-2(1) and (c) of the Regulations) for any year or other period shall be specially allocated to the Partners holding Common Units in proportion to their Percentage Interests.

(e) Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. “Partner nonrecourse deductions” (as that term is defined in Section 1.704-2(i) of the Regulations) for any Fiscal Period shall be specially allocated to the Partner who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the “partner nonrecourse debt” (as that term is defined in Section 1.704-2(b)(4) of the Regulations) to which such partner nonrecourse deductions are attributable, in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(1).

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

(g) Allocation of Gains and Losses Attributable to Revaluations. If the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership asset is adjusted pursuant to part (ii) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, the amount of such adjustment shall be specially allocated to the Partners holding Common Units in proportion to their Percentage Interests; provided however, that any

 

- 22 -


adjustments in connection with a distribution to the Regency Partner under Section 12.4 shall be allocated in accordance with Section 3.7.

(h) Preferred Unit Allocation. For each Fiscal Period, each of the Parent REIT and the Subsidiary REIT shall be allocated items of gross income or gain equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate distributions received by such entity with respect to such Fiscal Period pursuant to Sections 4.2(a) and (b) (including distributions received by such entity pursuant to such subsections by reason of Section 12.2(a)(ii) hereof) and (ii) any payments to such entity in respect of the redemption of one or more Preferred Units pursuant to clause (b), (c), or (d) of Section 9.3.

3.3 Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in Section 3.1(c), 3.2(a), 3.2(b), 3.2(c), 3.2(d), 3.2(e), and 3.2(f) hereof (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Regulations. It is the intent of the Partners that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations that are made be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations pursuant to this Section 3.3. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3 (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the General Partner shall make such offsetting special allocations in whatever manner it determines appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Partner’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Partner would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of the Agreement and all Partnership items were allocated pursuant to Sections 3.1, 3.2(g), and 3.2(h) and 3.7. In exercising its discretion under this Section 3.3, the General Partner shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Sections 3.2(a) and 3.2(b) that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made under Section 3.2(d) and 3.2(e).

3.4 Tax Allocations.

(a) Generally. Subject to Section 3.4, items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit to be allocated for income tax purposes (collectively, “Tax Items”) shall be allocated among the Partners on the same basis as their respective book items.

(b) Allocations Respecting Section 704(c) and Revaluations. Notwithstanding Section 3.4, Tax Items with respect to Property that is subject to Code Section 704(c) and/or Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) shall be allocated in accordance with said Code section and/or Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i), as the case may be, using the traditional method under Regulations Section 1.704-3(b).

3.5 Other Allocation Rules.

(a) The Partnership shall use the “interim closing of the books” method to determine each Partner’s share of the Partnership’s Profits, Losses, and any other items upon any change in the Partners’ interests in the Partnership (whether by reason of a sale, redemption, or otherwise), except as otherwise required by Section 706.

 

- 23 -


(b) Solely for purposes of determining a Partner’s proportionate share of the “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Partnership within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Partners’ interests in Partnership profits are in proportion to their Percentage Interests.

(c) To the extent permitted by Section 1.704-2(h)(3) of the Regulations, the General Partner shall endeavor to treat distributions as having been made from the proceeds of a “nonrecourse liability” (as that term is defined in Section 1.704-2(b)(3) of the Regulations) or a “partner nonrecourse debt” (as that term is defined in Section 1.704-2(b)(4) of the Regulations) only to the extent that such distributions would cause or increase an Adjusted Capital Account deficit for any Limited Partner.

3.6 Capital Accounts. The Partnership shall establish and maintain throughout the term of the Partnership for each Partner a separate Capital Account in accordance with Treasury Regulations 1.704-1(b).

3.7 Allocations in Year of Liquidation. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3, in the year in which the Partnership makes liquidating distributions pursuant to Section 12.2, items of gross income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated among the Partners in a manner that will cause the Capital Account balance of each such Partner to be equal to, or to approximate as closely as possible, the aggregate net distributions that each such Partner is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(ii) and (iii), provided, however, that any adjustments to the Gross Asset Value of the Partnership’s assets pursuant to part (ii) of the definition of Gross Asset Value in connection with a distribution to the Regency Partner under Section 12.4 shall be allocated to the Partners in a manner that causes the Partners’ Capital Accounts to be equal to, or to approximate as closely as possible, the amounts they would be entitled to receive under Section 12.2(a)(ii) and (iii) if the Partnership, instead of making the distribution to the Regency Partner provided for in Section 12.4, distributed an amount equal to the Liquidation Value (as determined pursuant to Section 12.4) to the Partners in liquidation of their interests in the Partnership.

SECTION 4

DISTRIBUTIONS

4.1 Cash Distributions. Cash Flow will be distributed quarterly:

(a) First, to the Parent REIT and the Subsidiary REIT in proportion to and to the extent of their Preferred Return Account balances;

(a) The General Partner may elect to implement a distribution reinvestment plan at any time after the expiration of the Initial Investment Period.

The Subsidiary REIT shall automatically reinvest all Reinvestment Proceeds (as defined in the Umbrella Agreement) in the Partnership, as required by the Umbrella Agreement, and the General Partner shall issue Common Units to the Subsidiary REIT in exchange for such Reinvestment Proceeds. All such issuances of Common Units in accordance with the Plan shall be made pursuant to Section 2.3 and otherwise on the same terms and conditions as are set forth for reinvestment of distributions in the limited partnership agreements of the Participating Partnerships.

(b) In the event that the General Partner implements the Plan, any Partner other than the Subsidiary REIT may, in its sole discretion, elect in writing to automatically reinvest all or a potion of the amounts distributed to such Partner pursuant to Section 4.1 in Common Units, which reinvestment shall be made on the same terms and conditions as the Reinvestment Proceeds are reinvested pursuant to Section 4.2(a).

4.3 Withholding. Each Partner hereby authorizes the Partnership to withhold from, or pay on behalf of or with respect to, such Partner any amount of federal, state, local, or foreign taxes that the General Partner determines that the Partnership is required to withhold or pay with respect to any amount distributable or allocable to such Partner pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any taxes required to be withheld or paid by the Partnership pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445, or 1446 of the Code. Any amount paid on behalf of or with respect to a Partner shall constitute a recourse loan by the Partnership to such Partner, which loan shall be repaid by such Partner within fifteen (15) days after notice from the General Partner that such payment must be made unless (i) the Partnership withholds such payment from a distribution which would otherwise be made to the Partner; or (ii) the General Partner determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that such payment may be satisfied out of the available funds of the Partnership which would, but for such payment, be distributed to the Partner. Any amounts withheld pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii) shall be treated as having been distributed to such Partner.

The Advisory Council will be established for the benefit of the Fund. The members of the Advisory Council shall be selected by the General Partner from representatives made available by the Fund Limited Partners, but none of such members may be Affiliates or employees of Regency or any of its Affiliates.

In addition to such scheduled meetings, upon ten (10) Business Days’ notice, the General Partner may call a meeting of the Advisory Council. The General Partner shall prepare and distribute an agenda for each meeting of the Advisory Council prior to such meeting. Members of the Advisory Council may participate in meetings by conference telephones or similar equipment.

In addition to the members of the Advisory Council appointed pursuant to Section 5.3(a), the General Partner shall also have the right to appoint, from representatives made available by Fund Limited Partners, one or more non-voting members of the Advisory Council who shall have the right to notice of, and to attend, the meetings of the Advisory Council but shall not vote on any matters considered by the

The General Partner and the Partnership shall have no liability to a Limited Partner as a result of an income tax liability incurred by such Limited Partner as a result of an action (or inaction) by the General Partner taken pursuant to its authority under this Agreement unless such action (or inaction) is taken in violation of an obligation that the General Partner may have to a Limited Partner pursuant to a side letter with such Limited Partner.

The One Portfolio Policy may provide for placing properties under an umbrella insurance policy, negotiating master property management agreements, implementing a consistent signage program, participating in incremental income and e-business programs and platforms, and making portfolio-wide leasing decisions. It is understood that such One Portfolio Policy may result in benefits or burdens with respect to individual Properties.

- 30 -


schedule of fees proposed to be charged by Regency and its Affiliates for any such services that will be provided, together with evidence indicating that on a portfolio-wide basis (except in the case of leasing commissions, which will be on a market-by-market basis) such fees are no greater than Market Rates. The Advisory Council shall approve or disapprove such fees, provided that the Advisory Council shall not withhold approval with respect to any fee that is no greater than the Market Rate for such fee. Any change to the fees so approved shall be effective as of the beginning of such following calendar year, and any agreement pursuant to which Regency or any of its Affiliates provides services to a Fund Entity shall provide that it shall be amended automatically to reflect any such change in the fees charged pursuant to this Section 5.14. The initial schedule of fees to be charged and services to be provided by Regency or an Affiliate, which shall be in effect for the 2007 calendar year without any further approval, is attached hereto as Exhibit F.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.1, this Agreement may be amended by the General Partner, by executing an instrument of amendment and giving each Fund Limited Partner notice thereof, without the consent of any of the Fund Limited Partners, (i) to effect changes of a ministerial nature that do not materially and adversely affect the rights, duties or obligations of any Partner; (ii) to give effect to the admission of Partners in accordance with the terms hereof; (iii) to conform the terms of this Agreement with any regulations issued under Code Section 704, provided that, in the opinion of counsel to the Partnership, such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights or interests of any of the Partners; (iv) with respect to the Partnership’s status as a partnership (and not as an association taxable as a corporation) for federal tax purposes (x) to comply with the requirements of the Regulations, or (y) to ensure the continuation of partnership status; provided, however, that, in the opinion of counsel of the Partnership, such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the rights or interests of any of the Partners; (v) to enter into side letters with Limited Partners, to the extent that they do not materially and adversely affect the economic interests of other Partners under this Agreement; and (vi) to change the name of the Partnership; provided, however, that no amendment shall be adopted pursuant to this sentence unless the adoption thereof (1) is, in the General Partner’s reasonable determination, for the benefit of or not adverse to the interests of the Partners; (2) is consistent with the other provisions hereof;

 

- 33 -


(3) does not affect the allocation and distribution provisions of Section 3 and Section 4 hereof (except to the extent necessary to conform the terms of this Agreement with any regulations issued under Code Sections 704) other than any effect that may result from the admission of a new Partner in accordance with the terms hereof; (4) does not alter the purpose of the Partnership; and (5) does not adversely affect the limited liability of the Limited Partners or the status of the Partnership as a partnership for federal income tax purposes.

SECTION 9

TRANSFERS; REDEMPTIONS

9.1 Transfer of Interests in the Partnership.

(a) The Limited Partner may Transfer its interest in the Partnership to an Affiliate of the Limited Partner without the approval of the Fund Limited Partners, so long as such Transfer includes a Transfer to such Affiliate of all of the Limited Partner’s interest in the Partnership and all of the Regency Interests. Other than Transfers to an Affiliate, no Limited Partner shall Transfer all or any of its Units or its interest in the Partnership (or any economic interest therein), and no Transfer other than to an Affiliate shall be registered by the Partnership without the approval of the Fund Limited Partners.

(b) Subject Section 9.1(c), upon any Transfer in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.1(a), the transferee Limited Partner, subject to the approval of the Fund Limited Partners (if required by Section 9.1(a)), shall become a limited partner of the Partnership under the Act and shall become vested with the powers and rights of the transferor Limited Partner, and shall be liable for all obligations and responsible for all duties of the Limited Partner, once such transferee has executed such instruments as may be necessary to effectuate such admission and to confirm the agreement of such transferee to be bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

(c) It is a condition to any Transfer otherwise permitted hereunder that the transferee assumes by operation of law or express agreement all of the obligations of the transferor Limited Partner under this Agreement with respect to such Transferred interest in the Partnership and no such Transfer (other than pursuant to a statutory merger or consolidation wherein all obligations and liabilities of the transferor Limited Partner are assumed by a successor corporation or other Person by operation of law) shall relieve the transferor Limited Partner of its obligations under this Agreement without the approval of the Fund Limited Partners.

(d) The General Partner shall not transfer all or any of its Units or its interest in the Partnership (or any economic interest therein).

9.2 Redemptions of Common Units.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 9.2, each Partner may elect quarterly to notify the Partnership of its desire to have the Partnership redeem some or all of its Common Units (the “Redemption Right”) by providing the General Partner with a

 

- 34 -


notice of that it is exercising its Redemption Right with respect to a number of Common Units to be set forth in such notice (the “OP Redemption Notice”). An OP Redemption Notice will be irrevocable by a Partner upon receipt by the General Partner and will be first effective as of the calendar quarter end on or most nearly following the 90th day after the date of delivery of the OP Redemption Notice to the General Partner (the “OP Redemption Notice Effective Date”) and shall remain effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which all of the Common Units subject thereto have been redeemed, or (ii) the occurrence of a Liquidating Event.

(b) As a condition to admitting any Fund Limited Partner, the applicable Fund General Partner may agree to limit the number of Fund Limited Partner Units which may be held by such Fund Limited Partner in proportion to the total number of Fund Limited Partner Units outstanding in order to satisfy legal regulations, tax or other investment limitations of such Fund Limited Partner (an “Ownership Restricted Partner”). If after admitting an Ownership Restricted Partner, any Fund Limited Partner sends a redemption notice with respect to the Participating Partnership in which such Fund Limited Partner is a limited partner and the redemption of Fund Limited Partner Units pursuant to such redemption notice would cause any Ownership Restricted Partner to be in violation of an ownership restriction, such Ownership Restricted Partner shall be automatically deemed to have submitted to the Participating Partnership in which such Ownership Restricted Partner is a partner a redemption notice deemed sent on the same day as the notice that would cause the Ownership Restricted Partner to violate its ownership restriction was sent for the smallest number of Fund Limited Partner Units necessary to prevent such Ownership Restricted Partner from violating its ownership restriction after the redemption of all other outstanding redemption notices from Fund Limited Partners.

(c) The Partners agree that any redemption notice received or deemed to be received by the Subsidiary REIT in accordance with the Subsidiary REIT Charter will also be deemed to be an OP Redemption Notice. The Partners further acknowledge and agree that, as a result of the redemption provisions contained in the respective Governing Documents of the Participating Partnerships, the Parent REIT and the Subsidiary REIT, any redemption notice delivered by a Fund Limited Partner to a Participating Partnership automatically will also be deemed to result in a redemption notice being delivered to the Subsidiary REIT. Accordingly, the Partners agree that any redemption notice delivered by a Fund Limited Partner to the respective Participating Partnership in which it is a limited partner shall be deemed to result in an OP Redemption Notice from the Subsidiary REIT being received by the General Partner on the date such underlying redemption notice was delivered to the Fund General Partner of the applicable Participating Partnership and to be for a number of Common Units equivalent to the interests in the Participating Partnership subject to such notice.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Fund Limited Partner shall not have the right to send a redemption notice to the Participating Partnership in which it is a partner until the later to occur of: (i) the second anniversary of the Initial Closing or (ii) such time as the Fund Limited Partner in question has contributed the full amount of its Fund Capital Commitment to the Participating Partnership in which it is a limited partner (or such Fund Capital Commitment has expired because the Initial Investment Period has ended).

 

- 35 -


(e) The Regency Partner (or any Affiliate of the Regency Partner that owns Common Units) shall not have a Redemption Right unless the Regency Investment Percentage is equal to or greater than the Regency Required Investment, in which case the Regency Partner (or any Affiliate of the Regency Partner that owns Common Units) shall have the right to have Common Units or units in the Fund Partnership or a Feeder Partnership redeemed until the Regency Investment Percentage is equal to the Regency Required Investment, provided that any accompanying redemption from the Subsidiary REIT does not jeopardize the Subsidiary REIT’s status as a REIT. Subject to the preceding sentence, to the extent that the Regency Investment Percentage exceeds the Regency Required Investment during the Initial Investment Period, the General Partner shall have the right to use Capital Contributions received by the Partnership from the Subsidiary REIT in response to a Capital Call Notice to redeem the Regency Partner or an Affiliate during the Initial Investment Period, to the extent of such excess.

(f) Subject to the Regency Partner’s rights pursuant to Section 12.4, upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, the Redemption Right of all Partners shall terminate and all outstanding OP Redemption Notices shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.

(g) To the extent of the availability of Cash Flow and Capital Contributions (provided that such availability shall be determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion, and that such determination may take into account Operating Expenses, debt payments, applicable restrictions under debt instruments, investments to which the Partnership is directly or indirectly committed, anticipated strategic acquisitions to maintain the value of the Partnership’s portfolio or capital expenditures and reserves) as of the end of any calendar quarter, the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to make payments to redeem Common Units (in whole or by means of one or more partial payments) which are the subject of an effective OP Redemption Notice. Notwithstanding the General Partner’s discretion to determine the availability of Cash Flow and Capital Contributions with which to make redemptions set forth in the preceding sentence, if any election to redeem Common Units pursuant to an effective OP Redemption Notice has been outstanding for more than one hundred eighty (180) days following the OP Redemption Notice Effective Date, the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to take the actions described in Section 9.2(j) to satisfy outstanding redemption requests. In any calendar quarter in which the General Partner determines that there is insufficient Cash Flow to redeem all Common Units subject to outstanding effective OP Redemption Notices, redemptions shall be made from all requesting Partners pro rata based on the number of Common Units subject to outstanding effective OP Redemption Notices (without regard to the date of the OP Redemption Notices, other than for purposes of determining the effectiveness thereof). The General Partner shall make the determination as to the availability of Cash Flow for redemptions for each calendar quarter in which there are effective outstanding OP Redemption Notices as of the end of such calendar quarter, and the redemption of a Common Unit will be deemed effective as of the end of the calendar quarter as of which the General Partner determines pursuant to the preceding sentence that sufficient Cash Flow or Capital Contributions are available for its redemption (such calendar quarter end, the “Redemption Date” for such Common Unit). With respect to any Common Units subject to outstanding effective OP Redemption Notices that the Partnership does not redeem due to insufficient Cash Flow or Capital Contributions for the calendar quarter specified in such OP Redemption Notice, such Common Units will remain subject to the applicable OP Redemption Notice, and such OP Redemption Notice will remain outstanding and effective until the Partnership has redeemed such Common Units, or, if earlier, the occurrence of a Liquidating Event.

 

- 36 -


(h) The redemption price per Common Unit to be redeemed from any Partner shall be equal to (i) the Net Asset Value Per Unit of the Partnership calculated as of the applicable Redemption Date, less (ii) the amount of any distribution made after the applicable Redemption Date with respect to such Common Unit pursuant to Section 4.1 with respect to the calendar quarter in which the Redemption Date occurs. After the Partnership has made the final payment towards the redemption price on redeemed Common Units held by a Partner, such Partner shall not be treated as a Partner with respect to such Common Units. For purposes of Section 3 and Section 4, a Partner that has Common Units redeemed pursuant to this Section 9.2 shall be deemed to have had such Common Units redeemed as of the applicable Redemption Date. Such Partner will not be allocated Profits, Losses or any other Partnership items with respect to such Common Units attributable to the period beginning after such Redemption Date. With respect to such Common Units, such Partner shall not be entitled to receive distributions under Section 4.1 with respect to calendar quarters beginning after such Redemption Date, but such Partner shall be entitled to receive any distribution paid with respect to the calendar quarter in which the Redemption Date occurs that is paid after the Redemption Date.

(i) The Partnership shall make payments to redeem Common Units as soon as practicable following the applicable Redemption Date for such Common Units and in any event within fifteen (15) Business Days following the determination of Net Asset Value Per Unit as of such Redemption Date. In connection with any redemptions hereunder, the redeeming Partners shall execute such documents and agreements as the General Partner shall reasonably request.

(j) Subject to the next sentence, in no event will the Partnership be obligated to sell or finance, or cause to be sold or financed, Partnership assets in order to satisfy any requests for redemption; provided, however, that the General Partner may, in its sole discretion, cause Partnership assets to be sold or financed in order to satisfy redemption requests. If as of the 180th day following the OP Redemption Notice Effective Date relating to a redemption request set forth in an OP Redemption Notice the Partnership has not fully satisfied the redemption request, the General Partner will use commercially reasonable efforts to sell, finance or refinance properties or otherwise borrow funds in order to achieve the liquidity needed to redeem all Common Units subject to then outstanding effective OP Redemption Notices, and thereafter, the General Partner will continue to use commercially reasonable efforts until all such redemption requests have been satisfied. In no event, however, will the Partnership be required: (i) to sell more than ten percent (10%) of the Partnership’s gross asset value (as determined at the end of the one hundred eighty (180) days following the OP Redemption Notice Effective Date) within any four consecutive quarters; (ii) to take any action that would compromise the integrity of the Partnership’s portfolio, including incurring borrowings not in compliance with the Partnership’s Leverage Policy, taking into account relevant factors, such as the portfolio’s diversity by market and retail segment, geography and tenant credit; (iii) to sell any asset under extraordinary, unfavorable market conditions; or (iv) to sell any asset within four (4) years of the acquisition of such asset by the Partnership or if such sale might reasonably be expected to risk the Parent REIT or Subsidiary REIT’s status as a REIT or result in the Parent REIT or Subsidiary REIT engaging in any “prohibited transaction” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The

 

- 37 -


foregoing provisions of this Section 9.2(j) shall not be construed as to provide any superior, preferential or prior right to the redemption of Common Units by Partners whose redemption requests have not been satisfied as of the 180th day following the Redemption Notice Effective Date related thereto.

(k) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no redemption will be made by the Partnership if as a result thereof the Parent REIT or Subsidiary REIT would cease to qualify as a REIT.

9.3 Redemptions of Preferred Units. In the event that the Parent REIT or the Subsidiary REIT elects to redeem any or all of the Parent REIT Preferred Shares or Subsidiary REIT Preferred Shares in such entity, respectively, the Partnership shall redeem a number of Preferred Units held by the Parent REIT or the Subsidiary REIT, as applicable, equal to the number of Parent REIT Preferred Shares or Subsidiary REIT Preferred Shares redeemed by such entity. Each Preferred Unit shall be redeemed for an amount of cash equal to the sum of (a) $1,000, plus (b) the per Preferred Unit Redemption Premium due as of such date, plus (c) a fraction, the numerator of which is the balance outstanding in such entity’s Preferred Return Account as of the date of the redemption, and the denominator of which is the number of Preferred Units held by such entity immediately prior to the redemption, plus (d) in the case of a redemption of all of the Preferred Units of the Parent REIT or the Subsidiary REIT, the outstanding balance in such entity’s Preferred REIT Maintenance Account. The redemption shall occur on the same date that the Parent REIT or the Subsidiary REIT, as applicable, redeems the Parent REIT Preferred Shares or Subsidiary REIT Preferred Shares (the “Preferred Redemption Date”). After a Preferred Redemption Date, the Parent REIT or Subsidiary REIT, as applicable, shall no longer be entitled to distributions with respect to the Preferred Units redeemed, and the return thereon will cease to accrue.

SECTION 10

PRESERVATION OF REIT STATUS

The Partners acknowledge that (i) each of the Subsidiary REIT and the Parent REIT intends to qualify at all times as a REIT and (ii) the ability of the Subsidiary REIT and the Parent REIT to qualify as REITs will depend upon the nature of the Partnership’s operations. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the General Partner shall cause the Partnership to be operated at all times in a manner that will enable the Subsidiary REIT and the Parent REIT to satisfy all of the REIT rules of the Code and avoid the imposition of any federal income or excise tax liability. The Partnership shall avoid taking any action that would result in the Subsidiary REIT or the Parent REIT ceasing to satisfy any of the REIT rules of the Code or would result in the imposition of any federal income or excise tax liability on the Subsidiary REIT or the Parent REIT. The Partners further acknowledge that the Subsidiary REIT and the Parent REIT shall be entitled to receive information regarding the Capital Account balances of the Partners, the Partnership’s items of income, gain, deduction and loss, and such other information regarding the operations of the Partnership and its Subsidiaries as is necessary to permit each of the Subsidiary REIT and the Parent REIT to properly report and allocate to its respective shareholders its allocable share of the Partnership’s items of income, gain, deduction and loss in compliance

 

- 38 -


with its organizational documents and the REIT rules of the Code. The Partners acknowledge that the Subsidiary REIT and the Parent REIT are intended to be third party beneficiaries of this Section 10.

SECTION 11

DUTIES; LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION

11.1 Duties of the General Partner. The General Partner shall act, and shall cause Regency or any of its Affiliates that perform services on behalf of the Partnership to act, in good faith in the best interests of the Partnership and with the care an ordinarily prudent institutional real estate advisor or service provider, as applicable, in a like position would exercise under similar circumstances, and the General Partner shall not take any action or fail to take any action or cause or permit Regency or any such Affiliate of Regency to take any action or fail to take any action, which action or failure to act would constitute Disabling Conduct.

11.2 Other Activities. Each Partner, including each of the General Partner, the Limited Partners and each Affiliate of each Partner may, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the other Governing Documents and the establishment and existence of the Partnership, engage in whatever activities such Person may choose, whether such activities are competitive or comparable with the activities of the Partnership or otherwise.

11.3 Limitation of Liability. To the maximum extent permitted under the Act in effect from time to time, none of (A) the General Partner, or any of its Affiliates or any director, officer, shareholder, partner, member, employee, trustee, representative or agent of the General Partner or any of its Affiliates; (B) the Parent REIT, the Subsidiary REIT, the Fund Partnership, the Feeder Partnerships or any of their respective Affiliates or any director, officer, shareholder, partner, member, employee, trustee, representative or agent of the Parent REIT, the Subsidiary REIT, the Fund Partnership, the Feeder Partnerships or any of such Affiliates, including the Fund General Partners, or (C) any member of the Advisory Council (each, an “Exculpated Person” and collectively, the “Exculpated Persons”) shall be liable to the Partnership or to any Partner for (i) any act or omission performed or failed to be performed by such Exculpated Person, or for any losses, claims, costs, damages, or liabilities arising from any such act or omission, except in the case of Persons listed in Clauses (A) and (B) above to the extent such loss, claim, cost damage or liability results from (a) a breach of the duty expressly imposed on the General Partner by Section 11.1 hereof, if applicable, or other material breach of this Agreement, (b) gross negligence, intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law by such Exculpated Person, or (c) any transaction for which the such Exculpated Person received a benefit in violation or breach of any provision of this Agreement (all items in (a) through (c), collectively, “Disabling Conduct”), (ii) any tax liability imposed on the Partnership, unless, in the case of Persons listed in Clauses (A) and (B) above, such tax liability results from Disabling Conduct, or (iii) any losses due to the fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence of any agents of the Partnership, as long as such persons are selected and monitored in a manner consistent with the duty set forth in Section 11.1. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Exculpated Person shall, in the performance of his, her or its duties, be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Fund and upon information, opinions, reports or statements presented to such Person by any of the Fund General Partners or by any other Person

 

- 39 -


as to matters such Person reasonably believes are within such other Person’s professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Fund, any of the Fund General Partners or their respective Affiliates. Any termination of this Agreement or amendment to this Section 11.3 shall not adversely affect any right or protection of an Exculpated Person existing at the time of such termination or amendment.

11.4 Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law:

(a) The Partnership (and any receiver, liquidator, or trustee of, or successor to, the Partnership) shall indemnify and hold harmless each Exculpated Person from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, proceedings, investigations (internal or otherwise), costs, expenses, and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, all costs and expenses of defense, appeal, and settlement of any and all suits, actions and proceedings involving such Exculpated Person and all costs of investigation (internal or otherwise) in connection therewith) that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Exculpated Person in any way relating to or arising out of, or in connection with, or alleged to relate to or arise out of, or in connection with any action or inaction on the part of such Exculpated Person that relates in any way to the Fund or the business or assets thereof; provided, however, that the indemnification obligations in this Section 11.4(a) shall not apply to the portion of any liability, loss, obligation, damage, penalty, cost, expense or disbursement that results from (i) Disabling Conduct (except in the case of members of the Advisory Council, who shall be indemnified regardless of Disabling Conduct) or (ii) any suit, claim or proceeding brought by or on behalf of any Fund Entity against any Exculpated Person (other than a member of the Advisory Council), unless and until it is finally judicially determined (not subject to appeal) that such Exculpated Person is not liable to any such Fund Entity with respect to such suit, claim or proceeding or upon the dismissal or withdrawal of such suit, claim or proceeding.

(b) The Partnership shall pay expenses as they are incurred by any Exculpated Person in connection with any action, claim, or proceeding that the Exculpated Person asserts in good faith to be subject to the indemnification obligations set forth herein, upon receipt of an undertaking from the Exculpated Person to repay all amounts so paid by the Partnership to the extent that it is finally judicially determined (not subject to appeal) that the Exculpated Person is not entitled to be indemnified therefor under the terms hereof.

(c) If a claim for indemnification or payment of expenses hereunder is not paid in full within ten days after a written claim therefor has been received by the Partnership, the claimant may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim. In any such action the Partnership shall have the burden of proving that the claimant was not entitled to the requested indemnification or payment of expenses under this Agreement.

(d) If for any reason (other than the Disabling Conduct of such Exculpated Person other than an Advisory Council Member) the indemnification set forth in Section 11.4(a) is unavailable to such Exculpated Person, or is insufficient to hold such Exculpated Person harmless, in respect of any losses, claims, costs, damages or liabilities referred to in Section 11.4(a), then the Partnership shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Exculpated Person as a result of such loss, claim, cost, damage, or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Fund on the one hand and such

 

- 40 -


Exculpated Person harmless, in respect of any losses, claims, costs, damages or liabilities referred to in Section 11.4(a), then the Partnership shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Exculpated Person as a result of such loss, claim, cost, damage, or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Fund on the one hand and such Exculpated Person on the other hand, but also the relative fault of the Fund and such Exculpated Person, as well as any relevant equitable considerations.

(e) The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of the Partnership under this Section 11.4 shall be in addition to any liability which the Partnership may otherwise have and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs, and personal representatives of the Partnership and each Exculpated Person. Any termination of this Agreement or amendment to this Section 11.4 shall not adversely affect any right or protection of an Exculpated Person existing at the time of such termination or amendment.

(f) The indemnification to be provided by the Partnership hereunder shall be paid only from the assets of the Partnership.

(g) The General Partner shall have power, on behalf of and at the expense of the Partnership, to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of the Exculpated Persons against any liability asserted against or incurred by them in any such capacity or arising out of any such Exculpated Person’s status as the General Partner, the Parent REIT, the Subsidiary REIT, the Fund Partnership, the Feeder Partnerships, the Fund General Partners, any of their respective Affiliates, any member of the Advisory Council or a director, officer, shareholder, partner, member or employee, trustee, representative or agent of any of them, whether or not the Partnership would have the power to indemnify the such Exculpated Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 12

DISSOLUTION AND WINDING UP

12.1 Liquidating Events. The Partnership shall not be dissolved by the admission of additional limited partners, by the admission of a successor General Partner in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or by the Incapacity of any Limited Partner. Upon the withdrawal of the General Partner, any remaining General Partner and any successor General Partner shall continue the business of the Partnership as provided herein. The Partnership shall dissolve, and its affairs shall be wound up, only upon the first to occur of any of the following (each a “Liquidating Event”):

(a) an election made by the General Partner to dissolve the Partnership;

(b) the removal of any Fund General Partner upon a For Cause Termination Event;

 

- 41 -


(c) the removal of any Fund General Partner without a For Cause Termination Event;

(d) the withdrawal of the General Partner from the Partnership or the dissolution of the General Partner other than in connection with a Transfer permitted under Section 9.1;

(e) the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Properties and other assets of the Partnership; or

(f) entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Partnership pursuant to the provisions of the Act.

12.2 Winding Up.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, the Partnership shall continue solely for the purposes of winding up its affairs in an orderly manner, liquidating its assets, satisfying the claims of its creditors, and distributing its remaining assets to the Partners. In connection with the liquidation or winding up of the Partnership, the General Partner may, among other things, cause a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership to a third party, without any approval of the Limited Partners. During the period commencing on the date on which a Liquidating Event occurs and ending on the date on which the assets of the Partnership are distributed pursuant to this Section 12.2(a), Profits and Losses and other items of Partnership income, gain, loss, or deduction shall continue to be allocated in the manner provided in Section 3 hereof. No Partner shall take any action that is inconsistent with, or not necessary to or appropriate for, the winding up of the Partnership’s business and affairs. The General Partner or, if the General Partner has withdrawn or otherwise been removed from the Partnership, any Person (the “Liquidating Trustee”) designated with the approval of the Fund Limited Partners shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up and dissolution of the Partnership. The General Partner or the Liquidating Trustee, as the case may be, shall conduct such winding up over such period of time as the General Partner or the Liquidating Trustee determines to be in the best interests of the Partners. The assets of the Partnership shall be liquidated by the General Partner or the Liquidating Trustee, as the case may be, and the proceeds thereof shall be applied and distributed in the following order:

(i) First, to creditors, including Partners who are creditors, to the extent otherwise permitted by law, in satisfaction of liabilities of the Partnership (whether by payment or by making of reasonable provision for payment) other than liabilities for distribution to Partners on account of their respective interests in the Partnership;

(ii) Second, to the holders of Preferred Units, in the amount of (i) $1,000 multiplied by the number of Preferred Units outstanding at the time of the Liquidating Event, plus (ii) if the Liquidating Event occurs before the Redemption Premium right expires, the per Unit Redemption Premium in effect on the date of the Liquidating Event (items (i) and (ii), the “Liquidation Preference”); and

 

- 42 -


(iii) The balance, if any, to the Partners as provided in Section 4.1. The Regency Partner may be entitled to receive the distribution owed to some or all of its Common Units through an in-kind distribution in accordance with Section 12.4.

(b) The General Partner or the Liquidating Trustee, in its sole discretion, may elect not to pay the holders of Preferred Units the sums due pursuant to Section 12.2(a)(ii) immediately upon a Liquidation Event but instead choose to first distribute such amounts as may be due to the holders of the Common Units hereunder. If the General Partner or the Liquidating Trustee elects to exercise this option pursuant to this section, the General Partner or the Liquidating Trustee shall first establish a reserve in an amount equal to not less than 200% of all amounts owed to the holders of the Preferred Units pursuant to this Agreement. In addition, in the event that the Partnership elects to establish a reserve for payment of the Liquidation Preference, the Preferred Units shall remain outstanding until the holders thereof are paid the full Liquidation Preference, which payment shall be made no later than immediately prior to the Partnership making its final liquidating distribution on the Common Units. In the event that the Redemption Premium in effect on the payment date is less than the Redemption Premium on the date that the Liquidation Preference was set apart for payment, the Partnership may make a corresponding reduction to the funds set apart for payment of the Liquidation Preference.

12.3 Right of First Refusal Upon Removal Without Cause. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 12.2 hereof which require liquidation of the assets of the Partnership, but subject to the order of priorities set forth therein, upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event pursuant to Section 12.1(c), the Regency Partner shall have a right of first refusal to acquire any Property owned by the Partnership or a Subsidiary (the “Right of First Refusal”). If, at any time after the occurrence of a Liquidating Event pursuant to Section 12.1(c), the General Partner or Liquidating Trustee shall receive a bona fide offer (an “Offer”) from any person or entity for the purchase of any Property, and if the General Partner or Liquidating Trustee desires to accept such Offer, then the General Partner or Liquidating Trustee shall submit written notice of such fact to the Regency Partner, setting forth all of the terms and conditions of such Offer, including copies of all written offers and agreements relating to the Offer (the “ROFR Notice”). The Right of First Refusal shall be exercisable at any time within thirty (30) days from the date of the Regency Partner’s receipt of the ROFR Notice (the “Exercise Period”), to purchase the Property described in the Offer (the “Subject Property”), upon the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Offer. If the Regency Partner elects to exercise the Right of First Refusal, then it shall, prior to the end of the Exercise Period, submit written notice of such exercise to the General Partner or Liquidating Trustee, and the purchase of the Subject Property shall be closed on or before the date specified for closing in the Offer. If the Regency Partner shall not exercise such Right of First Refusal within the Exercise Period, then the General Partner or Liquidating Trustee shall be free to sell the Subject Property upon substantially the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the ROFR Notice, including the date specified for closing in the Offer. If the transaction contemplated by the Offer does not close in accordance with such Offer (or otherwise on terms not materially less favorable to the Partnership than the terms stated in the Offer) on or before the date specified for closing in the Offer, then the Right of First Refusal shall be restored and the Right of First Refusal shall apply with respect to any future sale of the Subject Property, and the General Partner or Liquidating Trustee shall not thereafter sell the Subject Property to any person or entity without again complying with the requirements of the Right of First Refusal.

 

- 43 -


12.4 Distribution In-Kind Upon Removal Without Cause.

(a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 12.2 hereof which require liquidation of the assets of the Partnership, but subject to the order of priorities set forth therein, upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event pursuant to Section 12.1(c), the Regency Partner may, in its discretion, elect to redeem all or a portion of its Common Units and any units in other Fund entities which comprise the Regency Interest (the “In-Kind Redemption Units”) and receive the redemption price payable with respect to such In-Kind Redemption Units (calculated in accordance with this Section 12.4(a)) in the form of an in-kind distribution of Properties. The amount that the Regency Partner elects to receive pursuant to this Section 12.4 shall be referred to as the “In-Kind Distribution.” To the extent that the Regency Partner elects to redeem units in a Participating Partnership as part of the In-Kind Distribution, the holder of such units shall be deemed to have sent a redemption notice to such Participating Partnership, with instructions that rather than redeeming the units for cash, the units should be redeemed through the In-Kind Redemption provisions of the Partnership. The aggregate redemption price payable to the Regency Partner with respect to the In-Kind Redemption Units (the “In-Kind Redemption Price”) shall be equal to the number of In-Kind Redemption Units multiplied by the Net Asset Value Per Unit as of the date of redemption (calculated in accordance with Section 12.4(b)). The redemption of the In-Kind Redemption Units will be deemed effective as of the completion of the In-Kind Distribution and shall occur to the extent reasonably possible prior to any sale of the Partnership’s assets not distributed to the Regency Partner as part of the In-Kind Distribution.

(b) Upon the Regency Partner’s election to receive an In-Kind Distribution pursuant to Section 12.4(a), the Regency Partner and the Advisory Council shall jointly select an Independent Valuation Firm to conduct an appraisal of the Partnership’s Properties and the Advisory Council shall select an independent consultant (the “In-Kind Distribution Consultant”) to advise it and make Property selections on behalf of the Limited Partners (other than Regency). A copy of all appraisals shall be provided to the Fund Limited Partners, the In-Kind Distribution Consultant and the Partnership’s independent accountants. The Regency Partner will then determine the Established Net Value of each Property, subject to the approval of the Independent Valuation Firm. The Established Net Value of all of the Properties held by the Partnership plus (A) (i) the value of the Partnership’s Temporary Investments and (ii) the carrying value of all other assets of the Partnership and minus (B) the In-Kind Distribution Costs (or estimated In-Kind Distribution Costs, to the extent that such costs have not been finally ascertained) collectively shall be the “Liquidation Value.” The Regency Partner will then determine the In-Kind Redemption Price; provided, however, that for purposes of such calculations (including, without limitation, for purposes of determining the Net Asset Value Per Unit), the “Net Asset Value” shall be equal to the Liquidation Value. The Regency Partner shall promptly provide copies of all such determinations by the Regency Partner and approvals of the Independent Valuation Firm to the Advisory Council, the In-Kind Distribution Consultant and the Partnership’s independent accountants. For purposes of calculating the Established Net Value of any Property and the Liquidation Value, the Independent Valuation Firm shall determine whether assets and liabilities created by new Statement of Financial Accounting Standards or changes to existing Statement of Financial Accounting Standards are appropriately included in the assets and liabilities of the Partnership.

 

- 44 -


(c) Within 30 days after the determination of the Established Net Value of each Property and the Liquidation Value, the Regency Partner and the In-Kind Distribution Consultant shall meet at the Partnership’s offices in Jacksonville, Florida, or at any other location mutually acceptable to the Regency Partner and the In-Kind Distribution Consultant, for the purpose of determining which Properties will be distributed to the Regency Partner as its In-Kind Distribution. At such meeting, the Regency Partner and the In-Kind Distribution Consultant shall alternately select, with the party making the first selection determined at random, individual Properties that are to be distributed to the Regency Partner or retained and sold by the Partnership, with the In-Kind Distribution Consultant making three selections for each one selection made by the Regency Partner. Each party will select Properties by drawing names of Properties using a random selection method mutually agreed upon by the Regency Partner and the In Kind Distribution Consultant. The parties shall continue to select Properties in this manner until such time as the Regency Partner has selected Properties (the “Designated Properties”) with aggregate Established Net Values not to exceed 110% of the In-Kind Distribution. In the event that the aggregate Established Net Values of the Designated Properties exceed the amount of the In-Kind Distribution, the Regency Partner shall make a cash contribution to the Partnership upon the closing of the transfer of the Designated Properties equal to such excess in restoration of the negative balance in its Capital Account that would otherwise result. All costs of the In-Kind Distribution Consultant, the Independent Appraiser and the Appraisals (the “In-Kind Distribution Costs”) shall be paid by the Partnership.

(d) In connection with the process for determining the Established Net Value of each Property described in Section 12.4(b), the Regency Partner shall provide to the Advisory Council and the Independent Valuation Firm such information as is customarily required by commercial appraisers of properties similar to each Property, including, without limitation, operating statements showing operating revenues and expenses with respect to such Property, and shall also provide the Independent Valuation Firm and the Advisory Council with such additional materials as the Independent Valuation Firm may request and which is reasonably available to the Regency Partner without incurring material additional costs.

(e) Within thirty (30) days after the completion of the selection of the Designated Properties described in Section 12.4(c), the Designated Properties shall be distributed to the Regency Partner. The Designated Properties shall be conveyed by a special warranty deed or other customary deed in the locale of the Designated Property, bill of sale, assignment of leases and any other customary instruments of conveyance. Prorations shall be handled in a manner similar to arms’ length transactions between third parties in the jurisdiction in which the property is located.

12.5 Negative Capital Accounts. Except as provided in Section 12.4(c), no Partner with a deficit balance in its Capital Account shall have any obligation to make any contribution to the capital of the Partnership with respect to such deficit, and such deficit shall not be considered a debt owed to the Partnership or to any other Person for any purpose whatsoever.

 

- 45 -


12.6 Technical Termination. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12, in the event the Partnership is liquidated within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g) but no Liquidating Event has occurred, such liquidation shall not cause a dissolution of the Partnership for purposes of the Act and the Partnership’s assets shall not be liquidated, the Partnership’s liabilities shall not be paid or discharged, and the Partnership’s affairs shall not be wound up.

12.7 Rights of Partners. Each Partner shall look solely to the assets of the Partnership for the return of its Capital Contribution. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Partner shall have priority over any other Partner as to the return of its Capital Contribution, distributions, or allocations.

12.8 Notice of Dissolution. Upon the dissolution and the completion of winding up of the Partnership, the General Partner (or, in the event there is no General Partner, any Liquidating Trustee designated pursuant to Section 12.2(a) hereof) shall promptly execute and cause to be filed a certificate of termination in accordance with the Act and appropriate instruments under the laws of any other states or jurisdictions in which the Partnership has engaged in business.

Exhibit B

Exclusivity Agreement

[to be attached]


Exhibit C

Allocation Policy

In order to minimize the potential for conflicts of interest in the allocation of acquisition opportunities among entities in which Regency has an economic interest, Regency has established certain operating policies, including a rotation system for the allocation of acquisition opportunities. In the event that Regency or any of its Affiliates has an opportunity to acquire a community shopping center that would qualify as an Acquisition Opportunity (whether the seller is Regency, a Regency-managed joint venture or an unaffiliated third party) for the Fund and would also satisfy the investment criteria of other investment vehicles with capital available to invest, Regency will offer every other non-grocery anchored Acquisition Opportunity to the Fund and every fourth grocery-anchored Acquisition Opportunity to the Fund. In the event that the community shopping center in question would qualify as an Acquisition Opportunity for the Fund but would not also satisfy the investment criteria of any other investment vehicle with capital available to invest, Regency will offer the community shopping center to the Fund and such offer will not be considered an allocation under the general rotation system. Exceptions to the general rotation system will be made in the following circumstances: (i) a transaction necessary to satisfy Code Section 1031 exchange requirements; (ii) a tax deferred asset contribution in which a property owner contributes property to the Regency Centers, L.P. in exchange for limited partnership units in Regency Centers, L.P.; and (iii) situations in which Regency or any of its affiliates is issuing equity or other securities or in which legal, regulatory, tax or other impediments cannot be eliminated or substantially mitigated on a commercially reasonable basis without imposition of material additional costs on Regency, the Fund or other investment vehicles, including an acquisition by Regency of a portfolio of properties or an entity that holds interests in a portfolio of properties where there are such impediments to severing the portfolio or otherwise transferring individual properties (including impediments to allocating relative valuation and risks within the portfolio) or where the Fund does not have sufficient capital to acquire the entire portfolio or entity.


Exhibit D

Fund Leverage Policy

The Fund may acquire a Property subject to existing financing or may incur secured or unsecured indebtedness at the Property level, Property-owning entity level, Partnership level or the Subsidiary REIT level (including the potential establishment of a credit facility) (such debt collectively, the “Fund Indebtedness”) if the General Partner believes it is appropriate, so long as it complies with this Leverage Policy. The Fund may not incur Fund Indebtedness that would cause the aggregate principal amount of the Fund Indebtedness to exceed, immediately after such incurrence of debt, 60% of the Gross Asset Value of the Fund’s Properties, without obtaining the consent of the Advisory Council pursuant to Section 5.5(d). For example, if immediately after an incurrence of Fund Indebtedness, the Fund has assets with a Gross Asset Value of $400 million, the Fund Indebtedness, including the new borrowing, could not exceed $240 million unless the Advisory Council consented to the transaction pursuant to Section 5.5(d). For the purpose of calculating the aggregate principal amount of the Fund Indebtedness and the Gross Asset Value of the Fund’s Properties, Fund Indebtedness and Fund Properties held through subsidiaries and joint ventures will be determined by reference to the Fund’s share of those items under the relevant venture agreements.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fund may incur Fund Indebtedness that causes the aggregate principal amount of the Fund Indebtedness to exceed 60% of the Gross Asset Value of the Fund’s Properties immediately after the incurrence of such new Fund Indebtedness without obtaining the consent of the Advisory Council pursuant to Section 5.5(d) if: (i) the transaction that causes the aggregate principal amount of the Fund Indebtedness to exceed 60% of the Gross Asset Value of the Fund’s Properties immediately after the incurrence of such Fund Indebtedness is a refinancing of the principal amount of any existing Fund Indebtedness (together with refinancing transaction costs and, to the extent required by the lender as a condition to obtaining such refinancing, anticipated tenant improvements, lease commissions and other project related costs to be funded from such refinancing) or (ii) the Fund Indebtedness does not exceed 60% of the Gross Asset Value of the Fund’s Properties for more than two consecutive calendar quarters and during such time the Fund Indebtedness at no time exceeds 65% of the Gross Asset Value of the Fund’s Properties.

In addition to the foregoing, Fund Indebtedness must meet the following criteria:

 

1. No Fund Indebtedness may be incurred if, at the time of incurrence, such incurrence would cause more than 20% of the outstanding Fund Indebtedness to have a floating or adjustable interest rate (including the newly incurred Fund Indebtedness). If floating rate Fund Indebtedness has been hedged to effectively have a fixed rate, it shall not be considered to have a floating or adjustable interest rate for purposes of calculating this item 1 for the period the hedge is in effect.

 

2. No Fund Indebtedness may be participating or otherwise entitle the provider of the Fund Indebtedness to any share of or interest based upon the amount of revenue or cash flow, property value or appreciation or other measure of performance of all or any part of the Fund’s assets.


3. No Fund Indebtedness may (a) be cross-collateralized other than within a Permitted Pool (as defined below), or otherwise (b) be structured such that a Property is collateral for a loan that is greater than a Permitted Pool. A “Permitted Pool” shall mean a loan of up to $250 million in principal amount.

 

4. No Fund Indebtedness may be cross-defaulted with any other Fund Indebtedness other than within a Permitted Pool.

 

5. No Fund Indebtedness may be recourse to the Fund Partnership, the Parent REIT, the Subsidiary REIT or any Feeder Partnership (except for (i) indebtedness with a term of not more than one year and (ii) such limited non-recourse “carve-outs” which may be required by an institutional lender and which do not impose recourse liability as to materially different matters or to a materially greater extent than such provisions for non-recourse carve-outs which are commonly required by institutional lenders in connection with similar financings at the time the subject Fund Indebtedness is put in place).

 

6. No Fund Indebtedness may be recourse to any Fund Limited Partner other than the Regency Partner.

 

7. After the date that is three (3) years from the date that any Fund Indebtedness is incurred, the subject Fund Indebtedness must permit (a) substitution of at least a portion of the underlying collateral (without cost or fee other than that which is commonly charged by institutional lenders in connection with similar financings at the time the subject Fund Indebtedness is put in place), subject to requirements as to the quality and value of the replacement collateral as are commonly required by institutional lenders in connection with similar financings at the time the subject Fund Indebtedness is put in place, or (b) defeasance or prepayment of all or a portion of such Fund Indebtedness and the release of the underlying collateral without premium or penalty other than customary defeasance expenses or yield maintenance and release premiums (i.e., a premium equivalent to a percentage of the remaining loan value). Whether Fund Indebtedness meets the criteria set forth in this item 7 shall be determined by the General Partner in its reasonable discretion.

 

8. All Fund Indebtedness must permit the Fund Limited Partners to exercise rights afforded under the Fund Governing Documents to remove any of the Fund General Partners without triggering mandatory prepayment of the Fund Indebtedness, subject to the reasonable consent of the lenders to any replacement general partner.

 

9. Neither Regency nor any of its Affiliates has any obligation to extend Fund Indebtedness to the Fund or to guarantee Fund Indebtedness incurred by the Fund. In the event that Regency or any of its Affiliates offers to extend Fund Indebtedness to the Fund, the incurrence of such Fund Indebtedness will be subject to the approval of the Advisory Council under Section 5.5(d) of this Agreement. Regency and its Affiliates may from time to time guarantee Fund Indebtedness or contribute assets with Fund Indebtedness in place (so long as such Fund Indebtedness is at or below market rates) at no incremental cost or expense to the Fund.


10. The restrictions and requirements set forth in items 1-9 above shall not apply to any promissory note issued to an ERISA Partner in connection with any permitted redemption or an ERISA Partner pursuant to the Fund Governing Documents.


Exhibit E

Valuation Policy

Each of the Fund’s Properties will be appraised or subject to an appraisal update annually by a nationally-recognized Member Appraisal Institute (“MAI”) appraisal firm approved by the Advisory Council as more particularly described herein (an “Independent Valuation Firm”). The appraisals and updates will be signed by an MAI appraiser and staggered on a quarterly basis throughout the year (allowing approximately 25% of the Fund’s portfolio to be appraised or updated each calendar quarter, such that each Property will be appraised annually). Any appraisals required under any Fund Governing Document or the Exclusivity Agreement will be a Full Narrative Appraisal (as defined below) and prepared by an Independent Valuation Firm and signed by an MAI appraiser.

To the extent that a Property was not appraised via a Full Narrative Appraisal in connection with its initial acquisition by the Fund, each such Property will receive a Full Narrative Appraisal during the first calendar quarter following its acquisition by the Fund. Each Property will join the annual valuation cycle within 12 months following its acquisition date. After a Property has received a Full Narrative Appraisal and has joined the annual valuation cycle, the appraised value of such Property will be updated annually via a Summary Appraisal Report as defined by the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (“USPAP”) based on the income capitalization approach (including both the direct capitalization and discounted cash flow approaches) and sales comparison approach (and including a reconciliation between the two (2) approaches) and otherwise substantially similar in format and content to the sample appraisal attached hereto as Exhibit E-1. For purposes of the foregoing, a “Full Narrative Appraisal” shall appraise the value of a Property based on the income capitalization approach (including both the direct capitalization and discounted cash flow approaches), the sales comparison approach and the cost approach (and including a reconciliation between the three (3) approaches) and otherwise substantially similar in format and content to the sample appraisal attached hereto as Exhibit E-2. The Fund General Partners will use the appraised values and updated annual valuation for purposes of determining Gross Asset Value and Net Asset Value.

Qualifications of the Appraiser

Subject to the approval of the Advisory Council, the General Partner shall appoint one or more Independent Valuation Firms to conduct the appraisals. With respect to the appraisal of any particular Property, the General Partner may select among the Independent Valuation Firms using criteria including, but not limited to, the geographic location of the Property and the availability of any particular Independent Valuation Firm. The appraiser must be (a) an MAI appraiser employed by one of the Independent Valuation Firms and (b) suitably qualified to carry out such appraisals and at least one of the signatories to the valuation must have at least five (5) years appropriate experience. The appraiser must be authorized under the law of the state where the appraisal takes place to practice as an appraiser. The appraiser may have no pecuniary or other potential conflict of interest that could reasonably be regarded as being capable of affecting that person’s ability to give an unbiased opinion of the value of the property. The appraiser will


keep all non-public confidential information relating to an engagement with the Fund and the underlying transaction strictly confidential subject to requirements of law and rules of the Appraisal Institute. The appraiser’s report will confirm that the appraiser meets the above qualifications.

Appraisal Compliance

Each appraisal should be carried out in accordance with the guidelines and recommendations set forth in the USPAP and the requirements of the Code of Professional Ethics and Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice of the Appraisal Institute.

Inspection and Documentation

The valuation shall take into consideration the information provided from an inspection of the Property being valued as well as a review of (i) a schedule of current tenancies and operating expenses, (ii) a capital expenditure report, (iii) all leases and (iv) any other relevant information pertaining to the Property.

Closing Date” means, for each Investment Property, the date the Contributor contributes such Investment Property to the Operating Partnership (or a Subsidiary), but in no event later than two hundred seventy (270) days after the date on which the Development Asset comprising the Investment Property becomes a Partially Qualifying Center or a Qualifying Center.

Contributor” means the particular Person that is contributing an Investment Property.

Development Asset” means any community shopping center located in the United States that is either (i) developed by a Regency Party and as of the date hereof is under construction or completed but in initial lease-up or (ii) will be developed after the date hereof, including, but not limited to, the assets designated on Schedule 1.1 hereof (either as an “Initial Portfolio Asset” or a “Future Pipeline Asset”).

Development Investment Memorandum” means a report delivered to the Advisory Council containing substantially the information as set forth in Paragraph 1.3(b) hereof, and in the case of any Partially Qualifying Center, any additional information reasonably requested by the Advisory Council that is reasonably available to Regency at the time without incurring material additional costs.

(b) The Investment Property that causes the Fund to exceed $225 million in aggregate contributed Investment Properties will be contributed at the value necessary to result in a weighted average capitalization rate of 6.5% for all of the Investment Properties that have been contributed as of that date (the “Initial Test Assets”), but not in an amount that would cause the aggregate contribution value of the Initial Test Assets to exceed the sum of their respective appraised values; and

(c) Thereafter, subject to the other terms of this Agreement, each Investment Property will be contributed at an amount equal to the gross fair market value of the Investment Property as determined by the appraisal submitted in the Investment Memorandum.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the calculation of the Gross Contribution Value of an Investment Property for purposes of the Portfolio Test, such value will be reduced or increased for prorations and closing costs to the extent credited or debited at Closing (as opposed to reconciled through a payment in cash) in accordance with this Agreement.

Operating Partnership Agreement” means the limited partnership agreement of RRP Operating, LP as in effect on the date hereof and as amended or supplemented from time to time.

Partially Qualifying Center” means a Development Asset that meets the gross leaseable area and occupancy tests set forth on subsections (b) and (c) of the definition of “Qualifying Center”, but which otherwise is not a Qualifying Center. Additionally, each asset comprising part of the Identified Development Pipeline shall be deemed a Partially Qualifying Center if it has satisfied the occupancy test set forth in subsection (c) of the definition of Qualifying Center.

Permitted Exceptions” means only the following interests, liens and encumbrances: (a) liens securing payment of indebtedness to be assumed by the Operating Partnership or Affiliate in connection with the contribution of the Investment Property; (b) liens for ad valorem taxes not payable on or before the closing of such contribution; (c) Leases, licenses and other occupancy agreements affecting the Investment Property; and (d) utility easements, operating and reciprocal easement agreements, deed restrictions and other matters disclosed on the title commitment or survey relating to the Investment Property which do not, in the reasonable opinion of the Subsidiary REIT, materially and adversely affect the title to, or the use, occupancy or development of the Project.

Person” means an individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, estate, trust (or portion thereof), association, joint stock company, government agency or political subdivision thereof, charitable organization, or other entity.

Portfolio Test” is a calculation of the cumulative weighted average capitalization rate of the Fund’s Real Estate Assets. The Fund will be deemed to have “satisfied” the Portfolio Test if, at each time of calculation pursuant to Paragraph 1.2(d), the Fund’s Real Estate Assets (including

 

Page 4


(a) the Development Asset(s) proposed to be contributed at such time of calculation, (b) all Development Assets contributed to date (including the Initial Test Assets) and (c) all Acquisition Opportunities acquired to date (other than any acquired Acquisition Opportunities that had an initial capitalization rate of less than 6.7%) at the time of such acquisition) have a cumulative weighted average capitalization rate equal to or greater than the following capitalization rates:

 

Size of the Fund’s Portfolio

   Capitalization Rate
From the first Real Estate Asset after the Initial Test Assets until the Fund’s portfolio reaches $600 million in aggregate agreed value (excluding Acquisition Opportunities with less than a 6.7% capitalization rate)    6.6%
Greater than $600 million in aggregate agreed value (excluding Acquisition Opportunities with less than a 6.7% capitalization rate)    6.7%

The Portfolio Test shall be calculated on a cumulative, unleveraged basis and will be based on the net operating income and the agreed values of each Real Estate Asset as of its acquisition or contribution date. For purposes of calculating the Portfolio Test, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Agreed value” means (a) with respect to each Development Asset, the Gross Contribution Value attributable thereto, and (b) with respect to each acquired Acquisition Opportunity, the purchase price for such Acquisition Opportunity; provided, however, that the Agreed Value shall be increased, without duplication, by the amount of any (i) in the case of an Acquisition Opportunity or a Development Asset, capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions charged to or assumed by the Fund in connection with the contribution or acquisition of such Real Estate Asset, (ii) in the case of an Acquisition Opportunity only, closing and transaction costs borne by the Fund in connection with such acquisition and (iii) in the case of an Acquisition Opportunity only, financing fees and costs in connection with such acquisition, whether related to financing in place prior to the acquisition or incurred in connection with the initial financing of the Real Estate Asset by the Fund.

“Initial capitalization rate” means the net operating income at the acquisition or contribution date (or the pro rata portion thereof with respect to any property in which the Fund holds (directly and indirectly) less than a 100% ownership interest) divided by the Agreed value of the Real Estate Assets. For the avoidance of doubt, once the capitalization rate for each Agreed value is set at the date of each purchase or contribution the capitalization rate that applies to such purchase or contribution shall be deemed to have been fixed and shall not change.

“Net operating income” means the gross revenue less operating expenses, where “gross revenue” is defined as base rents from existing leases, for the twelve months ending after the Closing Date, plus expense reimbursement revenue and miscellaneous revenue, and “operating expenses” are defined as those estimated expenditures relating to

 

Page 5


property operations, excluding capital expenditures, for the twelve months ending after the Closing Date, in each case as reasonably estimated by Regency.

If the Advisory Council approves the acquisition of a Development Asset that causes the Fund not to meet the Portfolio Test pursuant to the Operating Partnership Agreement, that asset will be included in the Portfolio Test calculation for purposes of applying the Portfolio Test to future assets. If the Advisory Council approves the acquisition of an Acquisition Asset at a capitalization rate of less than 6.7% pursuant to the Operating Partnership Agreement, that asset will be excluded from the Portfolio Test calculation for purposes of applying the Portfolio Test to future assets. Acquisition Assets approved by the Advisory Council pursuant to the Operating Partnership Agreement at a capitalization rate of 6.7% or more will be included in the Portfolio Test calculation for purposes of applying the Portfolio Test to future assets.

Property Owning Entity” means the Person that owns directly an Investment Property which Person shall be wholly owned by a Contributor.

Qualifying Center” means a Development Asset which satisfies each of the following investment criteria:

(a) two or more anchor tenants, with at least 50% of the center’s total gross leaseable area being occupied by anchor tenants and Shadow Anchor Tenants;

(b) total gross leaseable area of at least 250,000 square feet (which gross leaseable area shall include the gross leaseable area of any Shadow Anchor Tenants);

(c) at least 95% of the Development Asset’s gross leaseable area to be owned by the Operating Partnership must be leased and occupied by tenants paying rent;

(d) a weighted average remaining lease term for anchor tenants (excluding Shadow Anchor Tenants) of at least ten years during which the tenants are required to pay rent (including exercised renewal terms);

(e) not located within three miles of a non-Operating Partnership owned Regency shopping center; and

(f) substantially all construction must be complete.

For purposes of this definition, “anchor tenants” include: (i) “super” or larger anchor stores, such as Wal-Mart, Target, The Home Depot and Lowe’s; (ii) “junior” or smaller anchor stores generally containing at least 10,000 square feet of gross leaseable area and typically including super drug stores, discount department stores and value-oriented big box retailers; and (iii) grocery stores, including traditional supermarket formats, such as Kroger or Publix, and also specialty food retailers, such as Whole Foods Market, Trader Joe’s and The Fresh Market. Additionally, each asset comprising part of the Identified Development Pipeline shall be deemed a Qualifying Center if it has satisfied all of the criteria set forth above, with the exception of the minimum gross leaseable area requirement set forth in subsection (b) above.

1.2 Contribution.

(a) Following the date on which a Development Asset becomes a Partially Qualifying Center or a Qualifying Center (but in no event later than twenty (20) days prior to the Closing Date with respect to such Development Asset), the Regency Party that owns such Development Asset shall prepare and deliver an Investment Memorandum to the Advisory Council, in the case of a Partially Qualifying Center, or the Operating Partnership, in the case of a Qualifying Center, in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 1.3 below and shall offer to contribute to the Operating Partnership the Development Asset in accordance with this Paragraph 1.2.

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement:

(i) Regency shall offer and shall cause each of the Regency Parties to offer to contribute to the Operating Partnership any Development Asset that is a Qualifying Center, and the Operating Partnership shall accept for contribution each such Development Asset, unless the closing and financing costs associated with such asset exceed 1.45% of the Gross Contribution Value (without duplication of such closing and financing costs) of such Qualifying Center, in which case the Operating Partnership shall not be obligated to accept such Qualifying Center unless the Operating Partnership shall have received the prior approval of the Advisory Council. The General Partner shall determine, in its sole discretion whether and to which Subsidiary of the Operating Partnership the Development Asset is to be contributed. Additionally, Regency shall offer and shall cause each of the Regency Parties to offer to contribute to the Operating Partnership any Development Asset that is a Partially Qualifying Center, but the Operating Partnership shall not be obligated to accept such Partially Qualifying Center unless the Operating Partnership shall have received the prior approval of the Advisory Council.

 

Page 7


(ii) Regency shall, and shall cause each applicable Regency Party to, use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that each Development Asset becomes a Qualifying Center.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing:

(i) no Regency Party shall be required to offer any Development Asset to the Operating Partnership if:

(A) the appraised value of the Development Asset is less than its capitalized development cost calculated in accordance with GAAP;

(B) the Development Asset has been developed by such Regency Party on a fee basis specifically for purchase by a third-party;

(C) the Development Asset is owned in a joint venture with a third party that is unwilling to consent to its contribution to the Operating Partnership on terms reasonably acceptable to Regency and in the best interest of the Operating Partnership, provided, however, that the exception under this clause (C) shall be available in the case of a Financial Partner only if (1) the Development Asset has total development costs in excess of $75 million or (2) Regency obtained the opportunity to develop the Development Asset through such Financial Partner;

(D) the Development Asset is a Non-Strategic Asset;

(E) in the reasonable estimation of Regency, there exists a material contractual, legal or tax impediment to conveying the Development Asset to the Operating Partnership that cannot be eliminated or substantially mitigated on a commercially reasonable basis without the imposition of material additional costs to the applicable Regency Party or the Operating Partnership;

(F) the Operating Partnership does not have sufficient Available Capital to acquire such Development Asset.

(ii) Regency shall notify the Advisory Council if, with respect to any Development Asset it is otherwise required to offer to the Operating Partnership pursuant to this Paragraph 1.2, any of the Contributor’s Warranties (as defined below), if made by the Contributor with respect to the Investment Property related to such Development Property, would be untrue. In such event, the Operating Partnership shall not be required to accept any such Development Asset (it being understood that the Operating Partnership may accept such a Development Asset upon approval of the Advisory Council; provided, however, that the Contributor shall not be required to make any such representations and warranties which, if made, would be untrue). If the Advisory Council does not approve accepting such Development Asset without any such representation and warranty that if made would be untrue, Regency shall not be required to offer or to cause the Contributor to contribute such Development Asset to the Fund or the Operating Partnership, subject to the last sentence of Paragraph 1.2(d) below.

 

Page 8


(iii) Regency shall notify the Advisory Council of its intention to sell any Non-Strategic Asset and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to sell such asset to a party other than Regency or any other Regency Party, as soon as practical thereafter.

(d) Notwithstanding Paragraph 1.2(b)(i) above, in no event shall the Operating Partnership be obligated to accept any Development Asset that is a Qualifying Center if (i) after all Initial Test Assets have been accepted, accepting such Development Asset would result in the Operating Partnership not meeting the Portfolio Test or if the Operating Partnership is not in compliance with the Portfolio Test at the Closing Date or (ii) the Operating Partnership does not have sufficient Available Capital. In the event that the Portfolio Test is not or will not be satisfied upon contribution of a Development Asset or in the event that any representation or warranty required under the Contribution Agreement would be untrue, Regency shall be still be required to offer to contribute or cause the applicable Regency Party to offer to contribute such Development Asset to the Operating Partnership. In connection with such offer, the Regency Party shall give the Operating Partnership written notice of such offer, which notice will include an Investment Memorandum with respect to such Development Asset. The General Partner will promptly deliver such notice, together with a Development Investment Memorandum, to each member of the Advisory Council. Within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of such Development Investment Memorandum by the Advisory Council, the Operating Partnership shall reply by written notice to the Regency Party whether or not the Advisory Council has approved the acquisition of the Development Asset. If within the fifteen (15) business day period the Operating Partnership has replied by written notice that the Advisory Council has approved the acquisition of the Development Asset by the Operating Partnership, the Regency Party shall enter into a Contribution Agreement and contribute the Development Asset to the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership shall acquire such Development Asset on terms and conditions as set forth in this Agreement and the Contribution Agreement. If the Operating Partnership fails to deliver any notice to the Regency Party within such fifteen (15) business day period or states in a notice that it has no interest in the acquisition of such Development Asset, then the Regency Party shall be free to sell or otherwise transfer such Development Asset to any Person at a price equal to or in excess of ninety-seven percent (97%) of the price offered to the Operating Partnership and otherwise on substantially the same terms and conditions offered to the Operating Partnership. If the Regency Party shall propose to sell or transfer such Development Asset at less than ninety-seven percent (97%) of such price or on other terms and conditions materially more favorable to the buyer than the terms and conditions offered to the Operating Partnership, then the Regency Party shall not sell or transfer such property at such price or on other terms and conditions materially more favorable than the terms and conditions offered to the Operating Partnership without first re-offering such Development Asset to the Operating Partnership in accordance with the procedures in this Paragraph 1.2(d).

1.3 Submittal to the Operating Partnership.

(a) With respect to Development Assets, the Contributor shall prepare and deliver to the Operating Partnership an investment memorandum relating to each Investment Property that demonstrates that each such Investment Property is a Qualifying Center (or a Partially Qualifying Center, as applicable). The Contributor shall include with such investment memorandum such information or documentation that supports such determination, in the

(vii) a site plan for each such Investment Property;

(viii) an estimate of the Operating Partnership’s compliance with the Portfolio Test giving effect to the acquisition of each such Investment Property;

Section 2.2(a) above, divided by (ii) the Net Asset Value Per Unit (as defined in the Operating Partnership Agreement); provided, however, that if the Regency Required Investment is not, or would not be, satisfied following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the amount of cash to be distributed to the applicable Regency Party pursuant to Section 2.2(a) above shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the amount that is necessary for the Regency Required Investment to be satisfied upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. To the extent such Regency Party receives Units pursuant to this Paragraph 2.2, (x) the portion of the Investment Property equal to the percentage of the Net Contribution Value paid in cash pursuant to Paragraph 2.2(a) shall be treated for all purposes as having been sold to the Operating Partnership for cash and (y) the portion of the Investment Property equal to the percentage of the Net Contribution Value paid in Units pursuant to this Paragraph 2.2(b) shall be treated for all purposes as having been contributed to the Fund Partnership in exchange for Units (with the Fund Partnership having contributed such portion of the Investment Property to the Parent REIT (as defined in the Fund Partnership Agreement), the Parent REIT having contributed it to the Subsidiary REIT (as defined in the Fund Partnership Agreement), the Subsidiary REIT having contributed it to the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership having contributed it to the applicable Subsidiary, in each case in exchange for units or shares in such entity with a value equal to (A) the number of Units delivered pursuant to this Paragraph 2.2(b) multiplied by (B) the Net Asset Value Per Unit (as defined in the Operating Partnership Agreement)).1

2.3 “AS-IS” Transaction. For each contribution of an Investment Property, the Operating Partnership shall represent to the Regency Parties that the Operating Partnership has reviewed all such information relating to such Investment Property as the Operating Partnership deems necessary or desirable as to the condition of the Investment Property. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and except for Contributor’s Warranties (as defined in the applicable Contribution Agreement), the contribution of any interest in any Investment Property to the Operating Partnership (or a Subsidiary) shall be made without representation, covenant, or warranty of any kind (whether express, implied or, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, statutory) by the Regency Parties.

ARTICLE 3.

To the extent that a Regency Party enters into any joint venture, fund or other arrangement with a third party for the development of community shopping centers in the United States which is not prohibited by operation of this Paragraph 3.1, such Regency Party shall provide prompt written notice thereof to the Advisory Council.

3.2 Acquisition Opportunities.

(a) In the event that Regency shall determine, in its sole discretion, that an Acquisition Opportunity (whether the seller is Regency, a Regency managed joint venture, or an unaffiliated third party) would be appropriate or desirable for the Operating Partnership and for an entity in which Regency or one of its wholly owned subsidiaries owns an interest and exercises management authority, then, commencing with the second non-grocery anchored Acquisition Opportunity (and at least every second such non-grocery anchored Acquisition Opportunity thereafter) and with the fourth grocery-anchored Acquisition Opportunity (and at least every fourth such grocery anchored Acquisition Opportunity thereafter), Regency shall present such Acquisition Opportunity to the Operating Partnership for its approval by delivering to the Operating Partnership written notice (each, an “Acquisition Notice”) of such Acquisition Opportunity, which Acquisition Notice shall include, to the extent reasonably available at the time, (i) a proposed or executed, as applicable, letter of intent or purchase and sale agreement relating to the proposed Acquisition Opportunity, (i) a detailed breakdown of (A) the total projected due diligence expenses incurred or to-be incurred with respect to such Acquisition Opportunity (the “Due Diligence Costs”) and (B) the projected closing costs with respect to such Acquisition , (iii) the items listed in Section 1.3(a)(viii), (ix) and (xiii) and (iv) such due diligence information referenced in Sections 1.3(a)(i) through (v), Section 1.3(a)(vii) and Sections 1.3(a)(x) through (xii) as shall have been provided to Regency in connection with such acquisition and (in each case, subject to applicable confidentiality restrictions) and such information shall be referred to collectively herein as the “Acquisition Investment Memorandum.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Acquisition Opportunity in question would qualify as an Acquisition Opportunity for the Operating Partnership but would not also satisfy the investment criteria of any other investment vehicle with capital available to invest, Regency will offer such Acquisition Opportunity to the Operating Partnership and such offer will not be considered an allocation under the general rotation system described above. Neither Regency nor any of its Affiliates shall have any liability to the Operating Partnership or any direct or indirect investor therein for any inaccuracy in any of the information provided by third parties with respect to any Acquisition Property, whether contained in the Acquisition Investment Memorandum or otherwise.

(b) The General Partner will promptly deliver such Acquisition Notice, together with the Acquisition Investment Memorandum, to each member of the Advisory Council. Within the period ending on the date specified within the Acquisition Notice (the “Approval Period”) (which date shall not be less than 15 business days following the receipt of such Acquisition Notice, provided that Regency may require a shorter response period if in its discretion it determines that a shorter response period is reasonably necessary for Regency to be competitive with other bidders for such Acquisition Opportunity), the Operating Partnership shall reply by written notice to Regency whether or not the Advisory Council has approved the Acquisition Opportunity. If within the Approval Period the Operating Partnership has replied by written notice that the Advisory Council has approved the acquisition of the Acquisition Opportunity by the Operating Partnership, the Operating Partnership and the seller of such property shall enter into a purchase and sale agreement containing such terms and conditions as the seller and the Operating Partnership shall mutually agree (or if signed prior to the date of such acceptance, then the purchase and sale agreement shall be assigned to the Operating Partnership or its designated Affiliate). If such Acquisition Opportunity is approved by the

 

Page 14


Advisory Counsel and Regency’s or the Operating Partnership’s bid for such Acquisition Opportunity is accepted, then the Operating Partnership shall reimburse Regency for all Due Diligence Costs actually incurred by Regency in connection with identifying and acquiring such Acquisition Opportunity, provided that such amount shall not be greater than the amount of Due Diligence Costs projected pursuant to subclause (a) above and approved by the Advisory Council.

(c) If the Operating Partnership fails to deliver any notice to Regency within the Approval Period or states in a notice that the Advisory Council has determined that the Operating Partnership has no interest in the Acquisition Opportunity, then Regency shall be free to acquire such property on its own behalf or on behalf of its subsidiaries or Affiliates or present such Acquisition Opportunity to any other Person; provided, however, that if the Approval Period is shortened in accordance with Paragraph 3.2(b) above to less than five (5) business days, and the Operating Partnership fails to deliver any notice to Regency prior to the expiration of such Approval Period or states in a notice that the Advisory Council is unable to evaluate such Acquisition Opportunity within such Approval Period, then such offer will not be considered an allocation under the general rotation system described in Paragraph 3.2(a) above.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Regency nor any of its wholly owned subsidiaries shall have any obligation to present any such opportunity to the Operating Partnership unless the Operating Partnership shall have sufficient Available Capital to acquire such Acquisition Opportunity (taking into account any other pending acquisitions).

(e) Regency may from time to time modify the allocation policy set forth in subparagraph (a) above in its discretion, after consulting with the Advisory Council and providing notice to the Limited Partners, where modifications are necessary as a result of changes in law.

3.3 Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the foregoing provisions of this Article 3 shall not apply to (i) tax deferred exchange transactions pursuant to Section 1031 of the Code, (ii) a tax deferred asset contribution in which a property owner contributes property to Regency Centers, L.P. in exchange for limited partnership units, (iii) transactions pursuant to which Regency or one of its Affiliates proposes to issue securities of Regency or securities convertible or exchangeable into securities of Regency; or (iv) transactions in which legal, regulatory, tax or other impediments cannot be eliminated or substantially mitigated on a commercially reasonable basis without imposition of material additional costs on Regency, the Operating Partnership or other investment vehicles, including an acquisition by Regency of a portfolio of properties or an entity that holds interests in a portfolio of properties where there are such impediments to severing the portfolio or otherwise transferring individual properties (including but not limited to restrictions under financings to be assumed and impediments to allocating relative valuation and risks within the portfolio).

3.4 Additional Capital. Regency agrees that, to the extent necessary to maintain the Regency Required Investment (as defined in the Operating Partnership Agreement), pursuant to Paragraph 3.4(b) of the Contribution Agreement it shall designate a percentage of the Net Contribution Value (not to exceed 100%) to be delivered in Common Units if the Operating

Partnership or Units in the Fund Partnership as is necessary for the Regency Requited Investment to be satisfied upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
