ARTICLE III
RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER

Section 3.1. Right of First Offer to Purchase ROFO Assets of the Development Entities.

(a) Development hereby grants to the Partnership a right of first offer, as set forth more fully in Section 3.2, during the Term (the “ROFO Period”) on each ROFO Asset to the extent that any Development Entity proposes to Transfer any ROFO Asset (other than to an Affiliate of such Development Entity that agrees in writing that such ROFO Asset remains subject to the provisions of this Article III and assumes the obligations under this Article III with respect to such ROFO Asset).

(b) The Partnership and Development acknowledge that any Transfer of any ROFO Asset pursuant to the Partnership’s right of first offer is subject to the terms of all existing agreements with respect to the ROFO Assets and shall be subject to and conditioned on obtaining any and all necessary consents of security holders, governmental authorities, lenders or other third parties.

Section 3.2. Procedures.

(a) ROFO Notice. If a Development Entity proposes to Transfer any applicable ROFO Asset (other than to an Affiliate as described in Section 3.1(a)) during the ROFO Period (a “Proposed Transaction”), Development shall or shall cause such Development Entity to, prior to entering into any such Proposed Transaction, first give notice in writing to the Partnership (the “ROFO Notice”) of its intention to enter into such Proposed Transaction and shall not enter into such Proposed Transaction until it has complied with its obligations under this Agreement. The ROFO Notice shall include any material terms, conditions and other details (other than price) as would be reasonably necessary for the Partnership to make a responsive

offer to enter into the Proposed Transaction with the applicable Development Entity, which terms, conditions and details shall include any material terms, conditions or other details that such Development Entity would propose to provide to non-Affiliates in connection with the Proposed Transaction.

(b) ROFO Response. The Partnership shall have 60 days following receipt of the ROFO Notice to propose an offer to enter into the Proposed Transaction with such Development Entity (the “ROFO Response”). The ROFO Response shall set forth the terms and conditions (including, without limitation, the purchase price the Partnership proposes to pay for the ROFO Asset and the other terms of the purchase) pursuant to which the Partnership would be willing to enter into a binding agreement for the Proposed Transaction. The decision whether to submit a ROFO Response and the terms thereof shall be subject to approval by the Conflicts Committee. If no ROFO Response is delivered by the Partnership within such 60-day period, then the Partnership shall be deemed to have waived its right of first offer with respect to such ROFO Asset, and the applicable Development Entity shall be free to enter into the Proposed Transaction with any third party on terms and conditions determined in the sole discretion of Development.

(c) Negotiations Between Partnership and Development. If the Partnership submits a ROFO Response, the Partnership and Development shall negotiate, in good faith, the terms of the purchase and sale of the ROFO Asset for 30 days following the receipt of the ROFO Response by the Development Entity. If Development and the Partnership are unable, despite their good-faith negotiations, to agree on such terms during such 30-day period or such shorter period of time as Development and the Partnership may agree, the Development Entity may Transfer the ROFO Asset to any third party (i) on terms and conditions no more favorable to such third party than those set forth in the last written offer proposed by the Partnership during negotiations between the Partnership and Development pursuant to this Section 3.2(c) (the “Last Offer”) and (ii) at a price equal to no less than 100% of the price offered by the Partnership in the Last Offer. If the Development Entity does not enter into a definitive agreement with a third party with respect to the Proposed Transaction within 180 days after such 30-day period, the Development Entity shall be required to comply with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.2 if it desires to Transfer the ROFO Asset.

ARTICLE IV

Section 4.2. Effect of Waiver or Consent.

Failure on the part of a Party to complain of any act of any Person or to declare any Person in default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by such Party of its rights hereunder until the applicable statute of limitations period has run.
