A.G. Edwards & Sons, Inc.
One North Jefferson Avenue
St. Louis, Missouri 63103
 
  The undersigned, Kilroy Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the
"Company"), the sole general partner and a limited partner of Kilroy Realty,
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), hereby
confirms its agreement with you (the "Underwriter") as follows:
 
  1. Description of Shares. The Company proposes to issue and sell to you
740,741 shares (the "Shares") of its common stock, par value $.01 per share (the
"Common Stock"). The Shares are more fully described in the Prospectus
hereinafter defined.
 
  2. Purchase, Sale and Delivery of Shares. On the basis of the
representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, but subject to
the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company agrees to sell to you,
and you agree to purchase from the Company at a purchase price of $25.65 per
share, the Shares.
 
  The Company will deliver 77 Water Street, definitive certificates for the
Shares at the office of A.G. Edwards & Sons, Inc., 77 Water Street, New York,
New York ("Edwards' Office"), or such other place as you and the Company may
mutually agree upon (the "Place of Closing"), for your account against payment
to the Company of the purchase price for the Shares sold to you by wire transfer
of immediately available funds, at 10:00 a.m., St. Louis time, on April 24,
1998, or at such other time and date not later than three full business days
thereafter as you and the Company may agree, such time and date of payment and
delivery being herein called the "Closing Date."

  The certificates for the Shares so to be delivered will be made available to
you for inspection at Edwards' Office (or such other place as you and the
Company may mutually agree upon) at least one full business day prior to the
Closing Date and will be in such names and denominations as you may request at
least one full business day prior to the Closing Date.
 
  3. Representations, Warranties and Agreements of the Company and the
Operating Partnership. The Company and the Operating Partnership, jointly and
severally, represent and warrant to and agree with you that:
 
    (a) The Company meets the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the
  Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"); a registration statement
  (Registration No. 333-45097) on Form S-3, including a prospectus relating
  to the registration of the Shares and such other securities which may be
  offered from time to time in accordance with Rule 415 under the Act, and
  such amendments to such registration statement as may have been required to
  the date of this Agreement, has been prepared by the Company and the
  Operating Partnership pursuant to and in conformity with the requirements
  of the Act, and the Rules and Regulations (the "Rules and Regulations") of
  the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") thereunder, was
  filed with the Commission under the Act and was declared effective on
  February 11, 1998. Copies of such registration statement, including any
  amendments thereto, each related preliminary prospectus contained therein,
  the exhibits, financial statements and schedules have heretofore been
  delivered by the Company to you. A prospectus supplement (the "Prospectus
  Supplement") setting forth the terms of the offering, sale and plan of
  distribution of the Shares and additional information concerning the
  Company, the Operating Partnership and their subsidiaries (the
  "Subsidiaries") and their business has been or will be so prepared and will
  be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and
<PAGE>
 
  Regulations on or before the second business day after the date hereof (or
  such earlier time as may be required by the Rules and Regulations). The
  term "Registration Statement" as used herein means the registration
  statement, and the base prospectus included therein, as amended at the time
  it or any amendment thereto became effective under the Act, or at any time
  any Annual Report on Form 10-K is filed by the Company with the Commission
  (the "Effective Date"), including financial statements and all exhibits and
  all documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form
  S-3 under the Act. Any document filed by the Company under the Securities
  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") after the effective
  date of the Registration Statement or the date of the Prospectus Supplement
  and incorporated by reference in the Prospectus shall be deemed to be
  included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as of the date of
  such filing. The term "Prospectus" as used herein means (i) the base
  prospectus included in the Registration Statement at the Effective Date, as
  supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement as first filed with the
  Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations, except
  that, if such base prospectus is amended or supplemented subsequent to the
  Effective Date, the term "Prospectus" shall refer to the base prospectus as
  so amended or supplemented and as further supplemented by the Prospectus
  Supplement, (ii) if no such filing is required, the form of final
  prospectus included in the Registration Statement at the Effective Date or
  (iii) if a Term Sheet or Abbreviated Term Sheet (as such terms are defined
  in Rule 434(b) and 434(c), respectively, of the Rules and Regulations) is
  filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(7) of the Rules and
  Regulations, the Term Sheet or Abbreviated Term Sheet and the last
  Preliminary Prospectus filed with the Commission prior to the time the
  Registration Statement became effective, taken together (including, in each
  case, the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12
  of Form S-3 under the Act). The term "Preliminary Prospectus" as used
  herein shall mean a preliminary prospectus included at any time in the
  Registration Statement.
 
    (b) The Commission has not issued, and is not to the knowledge of the
  Company or the Operating Partnership threatening to issue, an order
  preventing or suspending the use of any Preliminary Prospectus or the
  Prospectus nor instituted proceedings for that purpose. Each Preliminary
  Prospectus at its date of issue, the Registration Statement at the
  Effective Date, and the Prospectus at its date of issue and any amendments
  or supplements thereto contained, as the case may be, all statements which
  are required to be stated therein by, and in all material respects conform
  or will conformed to the requirements of, the Act and the Rules and
  Regulations. Neither the Registration Statement nor any amendment thereto,
  as of the applicable effective date, and neither the Prospectus nor any
  supplement thereto, as of its applicable issue date or the Closing Date,
  contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any
  material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
  statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
  made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company and the Operating
  Partnership make no representation or warranty as to information contained
  in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or any
  such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon, and in conforming with,
  written information furnished to the Company by you specifically for use in
  the preparation thereof.
 
    (c) The documents incorporated by reference in the Prospectus pursuant to
  Item 12(a) of Form S-3 under the Act, at the time they were filed with the
  Commission, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the
  Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations adopted by the Commission
  thereunder (the "1934 Act Rules and Regulations"), and, when read together
  and with the other information in the Prospectus, at the time the
  Registration Statement became effective did not contain an untrue statement
  of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated
  therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.
 
    (d) The filing of the Registration Statement and the execution and
  delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the Operating Partnership
  have been duly authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company; this
  Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company
  and the Operating Partnership enforceable in accordance with its terms
  (except to the extent the enforceability of the indemnification and
  contribution provisions of Section 6 hereof may be limited by public policy
  considerations as expressed in the Act as construed by courts of competent
  jurisdiction, and except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy,
  insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws

  affecting creditors' rights generally and by general principles of equity);
  the issue and sale of the Shares by the Company and the performance of this
  Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated will
  not result in a violation of the Company's articles of incorporation or
  bylaws or the Operating Partnership's Second Amended and Restated Agreement
  of Limited Partnership, each as amended, or result in a breach or violation
  of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under, or
  result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance
  upon any properties or assets of the Company, the Operating Partnership or
  the Subsidiaries under, any statute, or under any indenture, mortgage, deed
  of trust, note, loan agreement, sale and leaseback arrangement or other
  agreement or instrument to which any of the Company, the Operating
  Partnership or the Subsidiaries is a party or by which they are bound or to
  which any of the properties or assets of the Company, the Operating
  Partnership or the Subsidiaries is subject, or any order, rule or
  regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction
  over the Company, the Operating Partnership or the Subsidiaries or their
  properties, except in each case for such violations and breaches which
  would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate,
  materially adversely affect the condition (financial or other), net worth,
  business, affairs, management or results of operations of the Company, the
  Operating Partnership and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole; no consent,
  approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with
  any court or governmental agency or body is required for the consummation
  of the transactions herein contemplated, except such as may be required by
  the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD") or under
  the Act or Rules and Regulations or any state securities laws.
 
    (e) None of the Company, the Operating Partnership or any of the
  Subsidiaries has sustained since the date of the latest audited financial
  statements included or incorporated by reference in the Prospectus any
  material loss or interference with its business from fire, explosion, flood
  or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor
  dispute or court or governmental action, order or decree. Except as
  described in or as contemplated in the Prospectus, subsequent to the
  respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration
  Statement and the Prospectus, the Company, the Operating Partnership and
  the Subsidiaries taken as a whole have not incurred any material
  liabilities or material obligations, direct or contingent, other than in
  the ordinary course of business, or entered into any material transactions
  not in the ordinary course of business, and there has not been any material
  change in the capital stock or long-term debt of the Company and the units
  of partnership interest (the "Units") or long-term debt of the Operating
  Partnership and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole or any material adverse
  change in the condition (financial or other), net worth, business, affairs,
  management, or results of operations of the Company, the Operating
  Partnership and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole. The Company, the
  Operating Partnership and the Subsidiaries have filed all required federal,
  state and foreign income and franchise tax returns and paid all taxes shown
  as due thereon except in any case in which the failure so to file would not
  reasonably be excepted to, individually or in the aggregate, materially
  adversely affect the condition (financial or other), net worth, business,
  affairs, management or results of operations of the Company, the Operating
  Partnership and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; all tax liabilities are
  adequately provided for on the books of the Company, the Operating
  Partnership and the Subsidiaries except to such extent as would not
  reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the condition
  (financial or other), net worth, business, affairs, management or results
  of operations of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the
  Subsidiaries taken as a whole; the Company, the Operating Partnership and
  the Subsidiaries have made all required payroll tax payments except for any
  such payment that is currently being contested in good faith or the
  nonpayment of which would otherwise not reasonably be excepted to,
  individually or in the aggregate, materially adversely affect the condition
  (financial or other), net worth, business, affairs, management or results
  of operations of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the
  Subsidiaries, taken as a whole as of the date of this Agreement; and the
  Company, the Operating Partnership and the Subsidiaries have no knowledge
  of any tax proceeding or action pending or threatened against the Company,
  the Operating Partnership or the Subsidiaries which would not reasonably be
  excepted to, individually or in the aggregate, materially adversely affect
  the condition (financial or other), net worth, business, affairs,
  management or results of operations of the Company, the Operating
  Partnership and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
 
                                      -3-
<PAGE>
 
    (f) Except as described in the Prospectus, there is not now pending or,
  to the knowledge of the Company or the Operating Partnership, threatened or
  contemplated, any action, suit or proceeding to which any of the Company,
  the Operating Partnership or the Subsidiaries is a party before or by any
  court or public, regulatory or governmental agency or body which would
  reasonably be excepted to, individually or in the aggregate, materially
  adversely affect the condition (financial or other), net worth, business,
  affairs, management or results of operations of the Company, the Operating
  Partnership and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and there are no
  contracts or documents of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the
  Subsidiaries which would be required to be filed as exhibits to the
  Registration Statement by the Act or by the Rules and Regulations which
  have not been filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement or
  incorporated by reference therein.
 
    (g) The Company has duly and validly authorized capital stock as
  described in the Prospectus; all outstanding shares of capital stock of the
  Company conform, and the Shares when issued will conform, to the
  description thereof in the Prospectus and have been, or, when issued and
  paid for will be, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
  nonassessable; and the issuance of the Shares to be purchased from the
  Company hereunder is not subject to preemptive rights.
 
    (h) Each of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Subsidiaries
  have been duly incorporated or formed, as the case may be, and is a validly
  existing corporation or limited partnership, as the case may be, in good
  standing under the laws of the state or other jurisdiction in which it is
  incorporated or formed, as the case may be. The Company, the Operating
  Partnership and the Subsidiaries have full power and authority (corporate
  and other) to own, lease and operate their properties and conduct their
  businesses as described in the Prospectus; each of the Company, the
  Operating Partnership and the Subsidiaries is duly qualified or registered
  to do business and is in good standing in each state or other jurisdiction
  in which its ownership or leasing of property or conduct of business
  legally requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so
  qualified would not have a material adverse effect on the ability of the
  Company and the Operating Partnership to conduct its or their business as
  described in the Prospectus; and the outstanding shares of capital stock or
  ownership interests of the Subsidiaries have been duly authorized and
  validly issued, are, in the case of shares of capital stock, fully paid and
  nonassessable and are owned by the Company or Operating Partnership, as the
  case may be, free and clear of any mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance,
  charge or adverse claim.
 
    (i) Deloitte & Touche LLP, the accounting firm which has certified the
  financial statements filed with or incorporated by reference in and as a
  part of the Registration Statement, is an independent public accounting
  firm within the meaning of the Act and the Rules and Regulations.
 
    (j) The consolidated financial statements of the Company together with
  the related schedules and notes thereto, set forth or included or
  incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and Prospectus
  fairly present the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of
  the dates indicated and the consolidated results of operations,
  shareholders' equity and cash flows for the periods therein specified, in
  conformity with generally accepted accounting principles consistently
  applied throughout the periods involved (except as otherwise stated
  therein). The summary and selected financial and statistical data included
  or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and the
  Prospectus present fairly the information shown therein and, to the extent
  based upon or derived from the financial statements, have been compiled on
  a basis consistent with the financial statements presented therein. In
  addition, the pro forma financial statements of the Company, and the
  related notes thereto, included or incorporated by reference in the
  Registration Statement and the Prospectus present fairly the information
  shown therein, have been prepared in accordance with the Commission's rules
  and guidelines with respect to pro forma financial statements and have been
  compiled on the basis described therein, and the assumptions used in the
  preparation thereof are reasonable and the adjustments used therein are
  appropriate to give effect to the transactions and circumstances referred
  to therein. Furthermore, all financial statements required by Rule 3-14 of
  Regulation S-X ("Rule 3-14") have been included or incorporated by
  reference in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and any such
  financial statements are in conformity with the requirements of Rule 3-14.
  No other financial statements are required to be set forth or to be
  incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus
  under the Act or the Rules and Regulations thereunder.
 
                                      -4-

    (k) None of the Company, the Operating Partnership or any of the
  Subsidiaries is in default with respect to any contract or agreement to
  which it is a party except for such defaults which would not reasonably be
  excepted to, individually or in the aggregate, materially adversely affect
  the condition (financial or other), net worth, business, affairs,
  management or results of operations of the Company, the Operating
  Partnership and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
 
    (l) None of the Company, the Operating Partnership or the Subsidiaries is
  in violation of any other laws, ordinances or governmental rules or
  regulations to which it is subject, including, without limitation, Section
  13 of the Exchange Act, and none of the Company, the Operating Partnership
  or any of the Subsidiaries has failed to obtain any license, permit,
  franchise, easement, consent, or other governmental authorization necessary
  to the ownership, leasing and operation of its properties or to the conduct
  of its business, which violation or failure would reasonably be excepted to
  materially adversely affect the condition (financial or other), net worth,
  business, affairs, management or results of operations of the Company, the
  Operating Partnership and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole. None of the
  Company, the Operating Partnership or the Subsidiaries has, at any time
  since their respective date of organization, (A) made any unlawful
  contributions to any candidate for any political office, or failed fully to
  disclose any contribution in violation of law, or (B) made any payment to
  any state, federal or foreign government official, or other person charged
  with similar public or quasi-public duty (other than payment required or
  permitted by applicable law).
 
    (m) There are no holders of securities of the Company having rights to
  registration thereof or preemptive rights to purchase Common Stock except
  as disclosed in the Prospectus.
 
    (n) The Company, the Operating Partnership and each of the Subsidiaries
  has good and marketable title to all properties and assets described in the
  Prospectus as owned by it, free and clear of all liens, charges,
  encumbrances or restrictions, except (i) with respect to land held pursuant
  to ground lease or subject to an air space lease, (ii) as otherwise
  described in the Prospectus and (iii) such as are not material to the
  business of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Subsidiaries,
  taken as a whole. The Company, the Operating Partnership and each of the
  Subsidiaries has valid, subsisting and enforceable leases for the
  properties described in the Prospectus as leased by it, with such
  exceptions as are not material and do not materially interfere with the use
  made and proposed to be made of such properties by the Company, the

  of the Registration Statement or the use of the Prospectus or of the
  institution or threatening of any proceedings for that purpose, and the

  prevent the issuance of any such stop order preventing or suspending the
  use of the Prospectus and to obtain as soon as possible the lifting
  thereof, if issued.
 
    (c) The Company will cooperate with you and your counsel in endeavoring
  to qualify the Shares for sale under the securities laws of such

  that purpose, provided the Company shall not be required to qualify as a
  foreign corporation or to file a general consent to service of process in
  any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or required to file such
  a consent or to subject itself to taxation as doing business in any
  jurisdiction where it is not now so taxed. The Company will, from time to
  time, file such statements, reports, and other documents, as are or may be

  by you, both in connection with the offering or sale of the Shares and for
  such other purposes and for such period of time thereafter as the
  Prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with the
  offering or sale of the Shares. The Company will deliver to you at or
  before the Closing Date two conformed copies of the Registration Statement
  and all amendments thereto including all exhibits filed therewith or

  thereto, as you may reasonably request.
 
    (e) If, during the period in which a prospectus is required by law to be
  delivered by an underwriter or dealer, any event shall occur as a result of
  which, in the judgment of the Company or in your judgment or in the opinion
  of your counsel, it becomes necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus
  in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
  existing at the time the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, not
  misleading, or, if it is necessary at any time to amend or supplement the
  Prospectus to comply with any applicable law, the Company promptly will
  prepare and file with the Commission an appropriate amendment to the
  Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus so that the
  Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the
  circumstances when it is so delivered, be misleading, or so that the
  Prospectus will comply with such law.
 
    (f) The Company will make generally available to its shareholders and
  will file as an exhibit in a report pursuant to the Exchange Act, as soon
  as it is practicable to do so, but in any event not later than 15 months

  statement in reasonable detail, covering a period of at least 12
  consecutive months beginning after the effective date of the Registration
  Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the requirements of

  advise you in writing when such statement has been so made available.
 
    (g) The Company will apply the proceeds from the sale of the Shares as
  set forth in the description under "Use of Proceeds" in the Prospectus,
  which description complies in all respects with the requirements of Item
  504 of Regulation S-K.
 
    (h) The Company will supply you with copies of all correspondence to and
  from, and all documents issued to and by, the Commission in connection with
  the registration of the Shares under the Act.

    (j) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company will notify you in advance of
  any press conferences, releases or other communications, to be held or
  issued by the Company, with respect to the Company or any of its
  subsidiaries, the financial condition, results of operations, business,
  properties, assets or liabilities of the Company or any of its
  subsidiaries, or the offering of the Shares.
 
    (k) The Company will use its best efforts to obtain approval for, and
  maintain the listing of the Shares on, the New York Stock Exchange.

  Partnership and the Subsidiaries, (3) access to the assets of the Company,

become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are
based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the
Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any blue sky
application or other document executed by the Company or the Operating
Partnership or based on any information furnished in writing by the Company or
the Operating Partnership, filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify any
or all of the Shares under the securities laws thereof ("Blue Sky
Application"), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading; and will reimburse you and each such
controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by you
or such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any
such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the
Company and the Operating Partnership shall not be liable in any such case to
the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is
based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, such Preliminary
Prospectus or the Prospectus, or such amendment or supplement, or any Blue Sky
Application in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished to the Company by you, specifically for use in the preparation
thereof; and provided, further, that if any Preliminary Prospectus or the
Prospectus contained any alleged untrue statement or allegedly omitted to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading and such statement or omission
shall have been corrected in a revised Preliminary Prospectus or in the
Prospectus or in an amended or supplemented Prospectus, the Company and the
Operating Partnership shall not be liable to you or controlling persons under

omission to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such
person results from the fact that you sold Shares to a person to whom there
was not sent or given, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale,
such revised Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus or amended or supplemented
Prospectus. In addition to its other obligations under this Section 6(a), the
Company and the Operating Partnership agree that, as an interim measure during

basis for all reasonable legal and other expenses incurred pursuant to Section
6(c) hereof in connection with investigating or defending any such claim,
action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding, notwithstanding the
absence of a judicial determination as to the propriety and enforceability of
the obligation of the Company and the Operating Partnership to reimburse you
for such expenses and the possibility that such payments might later be held
to have been improper by a court of competent jurisdiction. This indemnity
agreement shall be in addition to any liabilities which the Company and the
Operating Partnership may otherwise have.
 
  (b) You will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Operating
Partnership, each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the
Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company or
the Operating Partnership within the meaning of the Act, against any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company, the
Operating Partnership or any such director, officer or controlling person may
become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are
based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material
fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the
Prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Blue Sky Application
or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent,
that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission was made in the Registration Statement, such Preliminary Prospectus
or the Prospectus, such amendment or supplement, or any Blue Sky Application
in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by you specifically for use in the preparation thereof; and will
reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company, the
Operating Partnership or any such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action. In addition to your other obligations under this Section
6(b), you agree that, as an interim measure during the pendency of any claim,
action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding arising out of or based
upon any statement or omission, or any alleged statement or omission,
described in this Section 6(b), you will reimburse the Company and the
Operating Partnership on a monthly basis for all reasonable legal and other
expenses incurred pursuant to Section 6(c) hereof in connection with
investigating or defending any such claim, action, investigation, inquiry or
other proceeding, notwithstanding the absence of a judicial determination as
to the propriety and enforceability of your obligation to reimburse the
Company and the Operating Partnership for such expenses and the possibility
that such payments might later be held to have been improper by a court of
competent jurisdiction. This indemnity agreement shall be in addition to any
liabilities which you may otherwise have.
 
  (c) Any party which proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under
this Section 6 shall, within ten days after receipt of notice of commencement
of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a
claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 6, notify
each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, suit or
proceeding, enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the omission so to
notify such indemnifying party of any such action, suit or proceeding shall
not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to
any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 6. In case any such
action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified party and
it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the
indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent
that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory
to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to
such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the
indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal
or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently
incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. The
indemnified party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such
action, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of
such indemnified party (it being understood, however, that in connection with
such action the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of
more than one separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) in any one
action or separate but substantially similar actions in the same jurisdiction
arising our of the same general allegations or circumstances) unless (i) the
employment of counsel by such indemnified
 
                                     -12-

party at the expense of the indemnifying party has been authorized by the
indemnifying party, (ii) the indemnified party shall have been advised by such
counsel in a written opinion that there may be a conflict of interest between
the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in the conduct of the
defense, or certain aspects of the defense, of such action (in which case the
indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such
action with respect to those matters or aspects of the defense on which a
conflict exists or may exist on behalf of the indemnified party) or (iii) the
indemnifying party shall not in fact have promptly employed counsel to assume
the defense of such action, in any of which events such fees and expenses to
the extent applicable shall be borne by the indemnifying party. An
indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action or
claim effected without its consent. Each indemnified party, as a condition of
such indemnity, shall cooperate in good faith with the indemnifying party in
the defense of any such action or claim.
 
  (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is for any reason,
other than pursuant to the terms thereof, judicially determined (by the entry
of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the
expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right to appeal) to be
unavailable to an indemnified party under subsections (a) or (b) above in
respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of
indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable
by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the
Operating Partnership and you from the offering of the Shares. If, however,
the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted
by applicable law, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such
amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative
fault, as applicable, of the Company and the Operating Partnership and you in
connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as
other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by, as
applicable, the Company and the Operating Partnership taken together and you
shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from
the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the
total underwriting discounts and commissions received by you equal to the
difference between the last reported sales price per share on the New York
Stock Exchange on the date of this Agreement and the purchase price per share
paid by you pursuant to Section 2 hereof, and as set forth on the cover of the
Prospectus, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock purchased by
you pursuant to Section 1 hereof. The relative fault shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement of a material
fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Company or the Operating Partnership or you and
the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity
to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company, the Operating
Partnership and you agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contributions pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The
amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to
above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with
investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this subsection (d), you shall not be required to contribute any
amount in excess of the underwriting discounts and commissions applicable to
the Shares purchased by you. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.
 
  7. Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations,
warranties, and agreements of the Company and the Operating Partnership
contained herein or in certificates delivered pursuant hereto, and your
agreements contained in Section 6 hereof, shall remain operative and in full
force and effect regardless of any termination or cancellation of this
Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of you or any controlling
person, the Company and the Operating Partnership or any of their officers,
directors or any controlling persons, and shall survive delivery of the Shares
to you hereunder.

Statement, each Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, and any amendments or
supplements thereto (c) the furnishing of copies of such documents to you, (d)
the registration or qualification of the Shares for offering and sale under
the securities laws of the various states, including the reasonable fees and
disbursements of your counsel relating to such registration or qualification,
(e) the fees payable to the NASD (if any) and the Commission in connection
with their review of the proposed offering of the Shares, (f) all printing and
engraving costs related to preparation of the certificates for the Shares,
including transfer agent and registrar fees, (g) all initial transfer taxes,
if any, (h) all fees and expenses relating to the authorization of the Shares
for trading on the New York Stock Exchange, (i) all travel expenses, including
air fare and accommodation expenses, of representatives of the Company in
connection with the offering of the Shares and (j) all of the other costs and
expenses incident to the performance by the Company of the registration and
offering of the Shares; provided, however, that you will bear and pay the fees
and expenses of your counsel (other than fees and disbursements relating to
the registration or qualification of the Shares for offering and sale under
the securities laws of the various states), your out-of-pocket expenses, and
any advertising costs and expenses incurred by you incident to the public
offering of the Shares.
 
  If this Agreement is terminated by you in accordance with the provisions of
Section 8(c), the Company shall reimburse you for all of your out-of-pocket
expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of your counsel.
