4.00% EXCHANGEABLE SENIOR NOTES DUE 2012

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Issuer, designated as its 4.00% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2012 (herein called the “Notes”), issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of May 8, 2007 (herein called the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantor and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Issuer and the Holders of the Notes. Defined terms used but not otherwise defined in this Note shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(g), 6.01(h) and 6.01(i)) with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing, the principal of , premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on all Notes may be declared to be due and payable by either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and, upon said declaration the same shall be immediately due and payable, subject only, in the event of a Reporting Event of Default, to the Issuer’s right to pay Additional Interest for the first 180 days of such Reporting Event of Default, as described in Section 6.01. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(g), 6.01(h) or 6.01(i) of the Indenture occurs with respect to the Issuer, the principal of and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on all the Notes, shall be immediately and automatically due and payable without necessity of further action.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Issuer and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, to execute supplemental indentures adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes, subject to exceptions set forth in Section 9.02 of the Indenture. Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, waive any past default or Event of Default, subject to exceptions set forth in the Indenture.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall impair, as among the Issuer and the Holder of the Notes, the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on this Note at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the coin or currency herein and in the Indenture prescribed.


Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The Notes are issuable in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 principal amount and any integral multiple of $1,000. At the office or agency of the Issuer referred to on the face hereof, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, without payment of any service charge but with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration or exchange of Notes, Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of any other authorized denominations.

The Issuer shall have the right to redeem the Notes under certain circumstances as set forth in Section 3.01, Section 3.02 and Section 3.03 of the Indenture.

The Notes are not subject to redemption through the operation of any sinking fund.

Upon the occurrence of a Designated Event, Holders of Notes shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or a portion of their Notes pursuant to Section 3.05 of the Indenture.

Subject to and in compliance with the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder hereof shall have the right to exchange each $1,000 principal amount of this Note into cash and, if applicable, Shares of Beneficial Interest, cash or a combination thereof, as the case may be, at the election of the Issuer, with an aggregate value equal to the Exchange Value.

In the event the Holder surrenders this Note for exchange in connection with certain Designated Events, the Issuer will increase the Applicable Exchange Rate by the Additional Designated Event Shares as and when provided in the Indenture.

Except as expressly provided in Article 15 of the Indenture, no recourse for the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on this Note, or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Issuer in the Indenture or any supplemental indenture or in any Note, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, partner, member, manager, employee, agent, officer, director or subsidiary, as such, past, present or future, of the Guarantor, the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s Subsidiaries or of any successor thereto, either directly or through the Guarantor, the General Partner, the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s subsidiaries or of any successor thereto, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as consideration for, the execution of the Indenture and the issue of this Note.
