Section 2.2Exceptions. Notwithstanding the restriction set forth in Section 2.1, the Partnership or any Subsidiary may Transfer the Protected Interest (or an interest therein)if such Transfer (i) qualifies as a like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Code that would not result in the recognition of any taxable income or gain by Contributor that would be allocated to MR, (ii) qualifies as an involuntary conversion under Section 1033 of the Code that would not result in the recognition of any taxable income or gain by Contributor that would be allocated to MR, (iii) is pursuant to a transaction qualifying for tax-free treatment under Section 721 or Section 351 of the Code, or (iv) is any other transaction that does not result in the recognition of any taxable income or gain by MR with respect to the Property under Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder; provided, however, that:

(c)     if the Protected Interest is transferred to another Person in a transaction in which gain or loss is not recognized, the direct and indirect interest of the Partnership in such Person received in exchange for the Protected Interest pursuant to such transaction shall thereafter be considered a Protected Interest, and if the acquiring Person’s disposition of the Protected Interest would result in the recognition of taxable income or gain by MR with respect to the Property under Section 704(c) of the Code, the transferred Protected Interest still shall be considered a Protected Interest;

(d)    if the Partnership directly or indirectly receives any property that is in whole or in part a “substituted basis property” as defined in Section 7701(a)(42) of the Code with respect to a Protected Interest (including, without limitation, a Protected Interest by reason of clause (c) above), such substituted basis property shall thereafter be considered a Protected Interest;

Section 3.3Procedural Matters. In the event that the Partnership breaches its obligations set forth in Article II and such breach could reasonably be expected to give rise to an obligation of the Partnership to pay any amounts to Contributor pursuant to Section 3.1, the Partnership and VRLP shall reasonably cooperate (including by providing such information, documentation and assistance as each of them might reasonably request) in connection with (i) the fulfillment of VRLP’s obligations under the final paragraph of Section 3.3(d) of the MR Agreement, (ii) the determination of the amount of any liability of VRLP to MR pursuant to Section 3.3(d) of the MR Agreement and (iii) the preparation, response to and conduct of any arbitration, negotiation, indemnification request, audit or any other proceeding relating to VRLP’s liability to MR pursuant to Section 3.3(d) of the MR Agreement.  VRLP will provide the Partnership with notice of any action or proceeding described in clause (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence, and if the Partnership believes in good faith there exists a reasonable

basis to dispute any portion of any proposed liability to MR, VRLP and the Partnership will resolve the action or proceeding by means of a joint action or proceeding in which VRLP, the Partnership, and MR would participate and be bound thereby.  In the event that VRLP determines that an allocation of taxable income or gain to MR would be required as a result of an action (or proposed action) by the Partnership, VRLP shall promptly notify the Partnership of such determination, and VRLP and Contributor shall (x) consult with the Partnership with respect to the allocation of taxable income or gain to MR and the preparation of any related tax return and (y) take into account and consider in good faith any comments provided by the Partnership with respect to such allocation or related tax return, provided that VRLP and Contributor shall prepare and file their tax returns in their sole discretion.

Section 3.4Remedies. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the sole and exclusive rights and remedies of the Contributor under Article II (or otherwise with respect to any breach by the Partnership of any of its obligations under Article II) shall be a claim against the Partnership for the monetary damages as set forth in Section 3.1, and neither Contributor, VRLP nor any other Person shall be entitled to (a) specific performance of this Agreement by the Partnership (including by means of any injunction or other temporary restraining order enjoining the Partnership from any violation or threatened violation of Article II) or (b) recover any consequential or special damages (other than the monetary damages set forth in Section 3.1). Nothing herein shall be interpreted as prohibiting or limiting the consummation by the Partnership, Designee or any Subsidiary of a transaction described in Article II, and payment by the Partnership of the monetary damages set forth in Section 3.1 shall constitute full and complete liquidated and agreed damages in respect of any breach by the Partnership of its obligations under Article II and the Partnership shall be released from any further liability to Contributor or any other Person hereunder on account thereof.

Section 3.5Required Notices; Time for Payment. In the event that there has been a breach of Article II, the Partnership shall provide to Contributor notice of the transaction or event giving rise to such breach within thirty (30) days of such breach. All payments required under this Article III to Contributor shall be made to Contributor on or before five (5) days prior to the date on which VRLP is required to make the related payment to MR pursuant to Section 3.3(d) of the MR Agreement, or, if later, five (5) days after receipt by the Partnership of the written claim from Contributor therefor. For the avoidance of doubt, no payment shall be required to be made hereunder unless the Party requesting such payment has provided the other Party with documentation supporting such claim in reasonable detail.

EXHIBIT B

Excerpt from MR Agreement¹

3.3 Certain Tax Provisions.

(a) Except for actions expressly required or permitted by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, until the Protection Date, VRLP (or any Affiliate of VRLP) shall not, directly or indirectly,

(i) transfer the Property, any substituted basis property received in exchange for the Property, or the Interests [being the limited partnership interests in Franconia Three, L.P.], in any transaction; or

(ii) otherwise take or fail to take any action directly or indirectly, if such transfer or other action (or failure to take action) described in (i) or (ii) results in the recognition of gain or income (other than COD income) to the Contributor [Franconia Associates, a Virginia general partnership] with respect to such Property or the Interests under either (1) Section 704(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or corresponding provisions of state law, or (2) the minimum gain chargeback provisions under section 1.704-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations (the “Minimum Gain Rules”) or corresponding provisions of state law.

VRLP (and its affiliates) shall report the contribution of the Property pursuant to this Agreement as a contribution to which Section 721(a) of the Code applies and shall prepare all income tax filings and financial reports consistent therewith. For clarity, VRLP shall have no liability hereunder for any casualty or condemnation, including, without limitation, any agreement in the form of a settlement (provided that if VRLP qualifies for a deferral of gain under Section 1033 of the Code as a result of a purchase of or investment in property within the period specified in Section 1033 and the regulations thereunder, an appropriate election under Section 1033 of the Code shall be made).

. . . .

(c) For purposes of Section 704(c) of the Code and corresponding provisions of state law, VRLP shall use the “traditional method,” pursuant to section 1.704-3(b) of the Treasury Regulations, except that VRLP shall use the “traditional method with curative allocations,” pursuant to section 1.704-3(c) of the Treasury Regulations, with respect to any gain or loss (whether ordinary or capital in character) from the sale or other disposition of the Property, including any curative allocations to eliminate the effects of any Cumulative Ceiling

Rule Disparity (as defined below) with respect to the Property and any difference between the tax basis and the book basis of the Property at the time of the sale or other disposition of the Property.

As used herein, the term "Cumulative Ceiling Rule Disparity" with respect to the Property shall mean the sum, for all taxable years until the date of the sale or other disposition of the Property, of the annual excess, if any, of (i) the amount of book depreciation with respect to the Property allocated to the VRLP partners other than the Contributor, over (ii) the actual amount of depreciation deductions with respect to the Property allocated to the VRLP partners other than the Contributor for federal income tax purposes for that year.

(d) In the event that VRLP breaches its obligations to the Contributor as set forth in . . . . Section 3.3(a) from and after the Closing Date and prior to the Protection Date, Contributor’s and MR’s sole right shall be for MR to receive from VRLP, and VRLP as its sole liability to Contributor and MR shall pay to MR as damages, an amount equal to the sum of:

(i) The tax liability (including any interest, and penalties, arising from VRLP’s failure to make timely payment as described in this Section 3.3(d)) as computed below with respect to any gain recognized by MR under Section 704(c) of the Code or the Minimum Gain Rules and corresponding provisions of state law as a result of such breach (reflecting any reduction in gain that results from MR having a special inside basis under Section 743 of the Code in the Property),

(ii) Plus an amount equal to the aggregate federal, state, and local income taxes payable (including any interest, and penalties, arising from VRLP’s failure to make timely payment as described in this Section 3.3(d)) by MR as a result of the receipt of any payment required under this Section 3.3(d).

For purposes of computing the amount of federal, state, and local income taxes required to be paid by MR, MR’s tax liability shall be computed using the actual federal, state, and local income tax rates applicable to amounts includible in MR’s taxable income under Section 704(c) of the Code or the Minimum Gain Rules and corresponding provisions of state law or on account of the payments described clause (ii) of this Section 3.3(d) (taking into account the character of such income or gain) for the year with respect to which the taxes must be paid, determining the tax liability of MR by including the aforementioned items and reducing such tax liability by the tax liability of MR determined with such items excluded from the computation.

In the event that VRLP breaches its obligations set forth in Section 3.3(a) from and after the Closing Date and prior to the Protection Date, VRLP shall provide to the Contributor notice of the transaction or event giving rise to such breach not later than forty-five (45) days after the event of the breach. No later than February 15th of the calendar year (the “Filing Year”) immediately following the calendar year during which the breach occurred, VRLP shall furnish MR with drafts of Schedule K-1 for the Contributor for the immediately preceding taxable year.

No later than March 15th of the Filing Year, MR shall furnish to VRLP drafts of MR’s federal, state, and local income tax returns for the immediately preceding taxable year. A third-party accountant shall certify that such returns are true and accurate descriptions of the tax returns planned to be filed, taking into account only the information available at that time, including prior years’ filed tax returns. VRLP shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt of the tax returns to review them and adjust them in VRLP’s reasonable discretion in the event that VRLP disagrees with MR’s treatment of any items thereon. Except as provided below, subject to adjustment pursuant to last two sentences of this Section 3.3(d), all payments required under this Section 3.3(d) to MR shall be made not later than March 31st of the Filing Year, based on the tax shown on MR’s draft tax returns (as adjusted by VRLP pursuant to the preceding sentence). No later than October 31st of the Filing Year, MR shall provide to VRLP copies of his filed federal, state, and local income tax returns for the immediately preceding taxable year, along with a repayment to VRLP for VRLP’s overpayments to the extent that his actual marginal tax rates are lower than the marginal tax rates used to compute VRLP’s payments under this Section3.3(d). To the extent that his actual marginal tax rates are higher than the marginal tax rates used to compute VRLP’s payments under this Section 3.3(d),VRLP shall make an additional payment for VRLP’s underpayment.
