                  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    In accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
    Commission certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
    financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
    accounting principles have been omitted. The accompanying interim financial
    statements have not been examined by independent public accountants.
    Although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
    information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these financial
    statements be read in conjunction with the Company's 1994 Annual Report on
    Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to the
    fair presentation of the accompanying financial information have been made.

2.  PER SHARE DATA

    Net loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares
    outstanding of 9,303,930 for 1995 and 9,170,629 for 1994. Common shares
    granted but deferred pursuant to the Directors Stock Plan and the Long-Term
    Incentive Compensation Plan are included in the weighted average number of
    shares outstanding. Total shares issuable pursuant to the Directors Stock
    Plan are excluded from the weighted average number of shares outstanding for
    1995 and 1994 as their impact is antidilutive. Additionally, fully diluted
    earnings per share are not presented because the effect of outstanding
    options is antidilutive.

             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

    In April 1995, the Shorebreeze Associates joint venture which owns two 100
    percent leased office buildings in Redwood City, California, was
    restructured. The joint venture ownership now includes Redwood Shores MIP
    Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of MIP, as a 1 percent general partner, MIP
    as an 89 percent limited partner and the previous general partners as 5
    percent limited partners each. Under the terms of the agreement, MIP is
    allocated 90 percent of ordinary income and 90 percent of all losses. Net
    profits from an extraordinary event are in general allocated first to the
    limited partners other than MIP and then in accordance with ownership
    percentages. Pursuant to the terms of the joint venture agreement and
    generally accepted accounting principles, the Company believes it does not
    have a controlling interest and therefore, Shorebreeze Associates is not
    consolidated. Accordingly, 90 percent of the losses from the joint venture
    are included in joint venture losses in MIP's statement of operations for
    the three months ended March 31, 1995. Additionally, a $15.4 million third
    party loan related to Phase I and a $14.9 million third party loan related
    to Phase II mature in June 1995. The partners are reviewing various options
    including extending the current loans and obtaining alternative financing.

    In January 1995 the Company made an equity contribution of $202,500 to its
    Harbor Point joint venture to fund the second installment of a leasing
    commission relating to the sole tenant Home Depot USA, Inc.

    </TABLE>

5.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

    The Company maintains a Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan for key
    employees covering 200,000 shares of common stock. Under the Plan, stock
    awards totaling 200,000 shares have been granted. One third of the shares
    granted vested on February 11, 1993, February 11, 1994, and February 11,
    1995, respectively. As of March 31, 1995, 96,333 of the vested shares had
    been issued, 100,000 shares were deferred by participants pursuant to the
    Plan, and the remaining 3,667 shares had been paid out in cash to
    participants pursuant to the Plan.

6.  BUILDINGS AND IMPROVEMENTS AND MORTGAGE DEBT

    During the first quarter of 1995, a tenant in the San Dimas Corporate
    Center, TRW Technar, Inc., exercised its right to terminate its lease and
    paid the Company $400,000. The tenant will continue to occupy the space
    through February 1997. This payment was used to offset the capitalized
    tenant improvements related to this tenant.

    Additionally, in March 1995, the Company made a $400,000 paydown on the
    mortgage loan secured by Sunwest Retail Plaza, decreasing the total loan
    amount to $988,350. In connection with the paydown, the Company paid a fee
    of approximately $12,700. The loan matures in January 1996 and bears
    interest at prime plus one and one-half percent, or 10.50 percent as of
    March 31, 1995. Beginning August 1, 1995 an extension fee of one-tenth of
    one percent is due monthly. The loan requires a repayment fee of
    approximately $32,000 as of March 31, 1995 which increases monthly through
    July 1995 to approximately 44,000.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
        AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

Based on current information and market conditions, management believes that in
the next twenty-four months there will be sufficient cash from operations to
operate the Company.  MIP's mortgage debt, including the debt at the joint
venture level, matures in 1995, 1996 and 1999.  Funds to repay mortgage debt are
expected to be generated from the refinancing of existing debt, sales of certain
assets, and current cash flow.  Additionally, approximately 4 and 16 percent of
the existing leases in MIP's portfolio, on a square foot basis, expire in 1995
and 1996, respectively.  MIP's ability to successfully manage tenant turnover
and improve the overall leasing of the portfolio is contingent in part on
various external factors such as business contractions of significant tenants
and a more competitive marketplace.  Although MIP anticipates a satisfactory
outcome regarding refinancing and re-leasing its projects, MIP may be negatively
impacted by conditions in the real estate and financial markets in general.

At March 31, 1995, the Company had an unfunded commitment of approximately $2.2
million to an existing joint venture.  If required, management expects that this
commitment would be funded from available cash, future cash flow and from
additional mortgage debt.

Cash flows from operating activities increased in 1995 primarily due to the
receipt of a one time early lease cancellation payment of $400,000 from TRW
Technar, Inc., a tenant in San Dimas Corporate Center.  Cash flows from
investing activities decreased due to increased tenant improvement costs at the
Long Beach Building and Irwindale Executive Plaza and a joint venture equity
contribution to Harbor Point for a second installment on a leasing commission.
Cash flows from financing activities reflect a greater repayment of debt in
1995.

The Company believes it has operated so as to qualify as a real estate
investment trust under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended.  In order to maintain this qualification, the Company must pay
95 percent of its taxable income in dividends.  The Company currently
anticipates utilizing available net operating loss carryforwards to offset any
taxable income.  Presently, the Company does not anticipate paying any dividends
in 1995.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Three Months Ended March 31, 1995
- ---------------------------------

Consolidated net loss for the three month period ended March 31, 1995 was
($283,100) or ($0.03) per share compared with ($277,400) or ($0.03) per share
for the same period in 1994.  The results from 1994 include an extraordinary
gain on debt forgiveness of $21,400.

Interest  income decreased for the three months ended March 31, 1995 due to the
sale of the $4.4 million Hacienda Promenade mortgage loan in June 1994.

Joint venture losses increased for the three months ended March 31, 1995
primarily due to the restructure of the Shorebreeze Associates joint venture.
MIP is now allocated 90 percent of the losses versus 20 percent in prior
periods.

The decrease in rental income, rental operating expenses and depreciation and
amortization reflect the sales of Casas Lindas Apartments in August 1994 and
Ontario Airport Business Park in November 1994, offset by the acquisition of the
Long Beach Building in late January 1994.

                                March 31, 1995

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
        AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Mortgage interest increased due to higher average borrowings of approximately
$3.0 million for the first quarter of 1995 compared to the first quarter of
1994, the accrual of repayment fees with respect to the Northbay Building and
the Sunwest Retail Plaza mortgage loans and the increased prime rate.  There was
no corporate interest expense in 1995 due to the payoff of the corporate debt in
August 1994.

Corporate operating expenses decreased due to lower directors and officers
liability insurance premium, lower compensation expense related to the Long-Term
Incentive Compensation Plan, and lower legal costs.

Strategic alternative costs relate to legal and consulting fees incurred in
pursuit of MIP's stated goal of reviewing strategic alternatives.

policy and that said exceptions, if they remain in full force and effect, will
not, to the best of their knowledge, interfere with the use of the Project for
the purposes intended by the Partnership.

       (c) Exclusive Purpose.  In view of the exclusive purposes of the
           -----------------                                           
Partnership, no Partner shall have any fiduciary obligation with respect to the
Partnership or to the other Partners insofar as making other real estate
opportunities available to the Partnership or to the other Partners. The General
Partner and the Limited Partners may, notwithstanding the existence of this
Agreement, engage in whatever activities they choose, whether the same is
competitive with the Partnership or otherwise, without having or incurring any
obligation to offer any interest in such activities to the Partnership or the
other Partner. Neither this Agreement nor any activities undertaken pursuant
hereto shall prevent the General Partner or the Limited Partners from engaging
in such activities, and the fiduciary duties of the Partners shall be limited
solely to those arising from the acquisition,

development and holding of the Project. The Trust and Chapman acknowledge and
agree that they have been informed that RS-MIP is a wholly owned subsidiary of
MIP.

                            FINANCING STRUCTURE AND
                         MANAGEMENT OF THE PARTNERSHIP
                         -----------------------------
                                        

  3.01  Financing Structure.
        ------------------- 


       (a) Existing Financing.  The Project is currently encumbered by two
           ------------------                                             
separate loans.  The first loan, which encumbers only Phase I of the Project, is
from the Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York, a New York corporation
("MONY"), and was made on or about March 14, 1988 (the "MONY Loan") in an
original principal amount of Fifteen Million Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($15,750,000).  The MONY Loan is secured, by among other things, that
certain First Deed of Trust, Assignment of Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture
Filing, dated as of March 14, 1988, made by the Partnership, as Trustor, to
First American Title Insurance Company, as Trustee, for the benefit of MONY, as
Beneficiary, and recorded in the Official Records for San Mateo County,
California (the "Official Records") on March 14, 1988, as Instrument No. 88-
030015.  Pursuant to various modifications and extensions, the MONY Loan shall
mature and be payable in full on July 1, 1995 (the "MONY Loan Maturity Date").

       (b) The second loan, which is a first priority loan on Phase II of the
Project, and a second priority loan on Phase I of the Project, was originally
made to the Partnership by MIP on or about December 9, 1988, and later
participated by MIP to Citicorp Real Estate Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"MIP/CREI Loan").  The MIP/CREI Loan was originally in the principal amount of
Nineteen Million One Hundred Ninety Thousand Four Hundred Seventy-Six Dollars
($19,194,476) and is secured, by among other things, that certain Construction
Deed of Trust with Assignment of Rents and Security Agreement and Fixture Filing
recorded in the Official Records on December 9, 1988, as Instrument No. 88-
16824.  The MIP/CREI Loan, as amended and modified from time to time, has a
current maturity date of June 29, 1995 (the "MIP/CREI Loan Maturity Date").  The
outstanding principal balance owing under the MIP/CREI Loan as of April 1, 1995,
was Seventeen Million Nine Hundred Fifty-Eight Thousand Eight Hundred Seventeen
Dollars ($17,958,817) of which amount Three Million Thirty-One Thousand Nine
Hundred Seventeen Dollars ($3,031,917) is currently owed to MIP.

       (c) As of the date hereof, the Partners have entered into that certain
Agreement to Amend Partnership and Restructure Loan Transactions (the
"Restructure Agreement") wherein, among other things, the Partners agree to
their best efforts to obtain extensions of the MONY Loan and the MIP/CREI Loan
through at least December 31, 1995.  The Restructure Agreement provides that the
Partners agree to use their best efforts to refinance the then current
outstanding balance of the MONY Loan and the then current outstanding balance of
the MIP/CREI Loan, less the portion of the MIP/CREI Loan owed to MIP, with a new
first trust loan to encumber the entire Project, with a closing date to occur on
or before the extended maturity date of the MONY Loan and the MIP/CREI Loan.
The portion of the MIP/CREI Loan not repaid in either event, shall be evidenced
and secured by a new loan from the Partnership to MIP, as more particularly set
forth and described in the Restructure Agreement.

       (d) MIP's Separate Capacity.  All Partners acknowledge and agree that the
           -----------------------                                              
Partnership will at all times recognize and deal with MIP in its capacity as a
lender separately and distinctly from its status in this Partnership as limited
partner, and that neither the effectiveness and priority of the liens and
security interests granted by the Partnership to MIP to secure any loan from
MIP, nor any of the benefits and protections in favor of MIP (and those of its
participants in any such loan, if any) set forth in any of the loan documents in
favor of MIP shall be in any way affected, increased or diminished by reason of
MlP's participation as Limited Partner in the Partnership, and none of the
benefits and protections in favor of MIP as Limited Partner with respect to the
Partnership shall be in any way affected, increased or diminished by reason of
any of MIP's agreements contained in any loan documents.  Without limiting the
foregoing, MIP, in its position as Limited Partner in the Partnership, 

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
will not be subject to, and the obligations to MIP set forth in this Partnership
Agreement will not be limited or excused by, any defenses, offsets or other
remedies of any nature which the Partnership might have against MIP in its
position as lender under any loan documents in favor of MIP, and the Partners
unconditionally and irrevocably waive any right or power to withhold, delay or
otherwise limit in any way the performance of the Partners' undertaking to MIP
set forth in this Partnership Agreement notwithstanding any such breach or
default by MIP in its position as lender under any loan documents in favor of
MIP. The Partners know and acknowledge that the aforesaid agreement of the
Partners is of the essence of MIP's willingness to enter into this Agreement and
any loan transaction and that MIP would not enter into either this Agreement or
any loan transaction in the absence of such agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, however, no Partner shall have any obligation nor assume any
liability to MIP arising out of any action or contention of any third party (not
intentionally induced or caused by such Partner) which establishes that MIP's
rights as a lender have been affected because of it being a Limited Partner in
the Partnership.

       (e) RS-MIP's Separate Capacity.  All Partners acknowledge and agree that
           --------------------------                                          
the Partnership will at all times recognize and deal with RS-MIP in its capacity
as a lender separately and distinctly from its status in this Partnership as a
general partner, and that neither the effectiveness and priority of the liens
and security interests granted by the Partnership to RS-MIP to secure any loan
from RS-MIP, nor any of the benefits and protections in favor of RS-MIP (and
those of its participants in any such loan, if any) set forth in any of the loan
documents in favor of RS-MIP shall be in any way affected, increased or
diminished by reason of RS-MlP's participation as General Partner in the
Partnership, and none of the benefits and protections in favor of RS-MIP as
General Partner with respect to the Partnership shall be in any way affected,
increased or diminished by reason of any of RS-MIP's agreements contained in any
loan documents.  Without limiting the foregoing, RS-MIP, in its position as
General Partner in the Partnership, will not be subject to, and the obligations
to RS-MIP set forth in this Partnership Agreement will not be limited or excused
by, any defenses, offsets or other remedies of any nature which the Partnership
might have against RS-MIP in its position as lender under any loan documents in
favor of RS-MIP, and the Partners unconditionally and irrevocably waive any
right or power to withhold, delay or otherwise limit in any way the performance
of the Partners' undertaking to RS-MIP set forth in this Partnership Agreement
notwithstanding any such breach or default by RS-MIP in its position as lender
under any loan documents in favor of RS-MIP. The Partners know and acknowledge
that the aforesaid agreement of the Partners is of the essence of RS-MIP's
willingness to enter into this Agreement and any loan transaction and that RS-
MIP would not enter into either this Agreement or any loan transaction in the
absence of such agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no Partner
shall have any obligation nor assume any liability to RS-MIP arising out of any
action or contention of any third party (not intentionally induced or caused by
such Partner) which establishes that RS-MIP's rights as a lender have been
affected because of it being a General Partner in the Partnership.
 
       (d) RS-MIP and MIP's Separate Identity.  All Partners acknowledge and
           ----------------------------------                               
agree that RS-MIP is a wholly owned subsidiary of MIP.  The Trust and Chapman
acknowledge and agrees that they will all times recognize and deal with RS-MIP
as a legal entity separate and apart than MIP.  The Trust and Chapman further
acknowledge and agree that RS-MIP is adequately capitalized to undertake the
obligations of the General Partner hereunder, and that they shall under no
circumstances seek to hold MIP responsible for the acts, omissions, obligations
and liabilities of RS-MIP, on any theory whatsoever, including without
limitation, the theory commonly known as "piercing the corporate veil."

  3.02  Approved Operating Budget.  At least ninety (90) days prior to the
        -------------------------                                         
commencement of each Fiscal Year of the Partnership, the General Partner shall
prepare and submit to the Limited Partners for review, operating and capital
budgets setting forth the General Partner's projection of cash receipts for such
Fiscal Year on a monthly basis, together with a detailed summary of operating
expenses and a detailed summary of capital expenditures projected by the General
Partner for such Fiscal Year on a monthly basis in connection with the operation
of the Project. The General Partner shall not incur any expenses other than
those projected in such budget submitted by the General Partner to Limited
Partners pursuant to this Article 3.02 and shall not incur any expenses so
projected until such budgets have been reviewed and approved by the Limited
Partners, provided, however, that any such proposed budget shall be deemed
approved if the Limited Partners fails to object within thirty (30) days 

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
from the date of its receipt of such proposed budget. From time to time the
General Partner may submit to the Limited Partners, for review, one or more
supplements to or revisions of an Approved Operating Budget. The General Partner
shall not incur any expenses projected in any such supplement or revision until
such supplement or revision has been reviewed and approved by the Limited
Partners, provided, however, that any such proposed supplement or revision shall
be deemed approved if the Limited Partners fail to approved such form within
thirty (30) days from the date of its receipt of such proposed budget. Each such
operating and capital budget, and/or supplements thereto or revisions thereof,
which has been approved in writing by the Limited Partners or deemed to have
been approved as provided above in this paragraph, shall be referred to as an
"Approved Operating Budget".

  If the parties disagree as to any line item in a budget, supplement thereto or
revision thereof, submitted to the Limited Partners for approval, the General
Partner shall, to the extent practical, continue to operate the Project pursuant
to the last Approved Operating Budget as to all disputed line items and pursuant
to the proposed budget, supplement thereto or revision thereof, as to all line
items which are not in dispute. The General Partner shall make no non-emergency
capital expenditures outside the scope of such budgets, except those required by
leases of Project space or required by any applicable governmental statute,
ordinance or regulation to which the Partnership or its property are subject,
until the disputed line items are approved. If the parties are unable to agree
among themselves as to how the disputed line items should be resolved within
sixty (60) days following submission of the proposed budget, supplement thereto
or revision thereof, to the Limited Partners, either party may initiate
arbitration of all of the disputed items other than line items regarding capital
expenditures pursuant to Article 14.12. The parties shall not have the right to
initiate arbitration of line items regarding capital expenditures.

  3.03  Leasing of Vacant Space in the Project.
        -------------------------------------- 

        (a) The General Partner shall possess, enjoy and may exercise full and
complete powers authority and discretion to lease vacant space within the
Project on such terms and conditions as the General Partner shall determine,
provided each of the following shall require the prior written consent of the
Limited Partners:

            (i) any lease with a base rental rate less than the projected rate
for building space as set forth in the then operative Approved Operating Budget,
or any lease not containing an annual expense pass-through adjustment feature;

            (ii) any lease with a term (including the primary and all renewal,
extension and similar option terms, irrespective of whether or not exercised)
having a duration greater than five (5) years;

            (iii) any lease or any lease renewal, extension or option covering
more than ten thousand (10,000) square feet of leasable floor area within any
Building in the Project;

            (iv) any lease requiring the landlord's payment of a tenant
  improvement allowance in excess of that set forth in the then operative
  Approved Operating Budget;

            (v) any lease which is not in substantially the form of lease, if
any, which is approved in writing by the Limited Partners for use as a standard
form with respect to the Project;

            (vi) any lease or sublease to any person of whom the Partnership or
any Partner, or any combination of them, directly or indirectly, owns: (A) if
such person is a corporation, stock of such person having ten percent (10%) or
more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to
vote, or constituting ten percent (10%) or more of the total number of shares of
all classes of stock of such person, or (B) if such person is not a corporation,
a ten percent (10%) or greater interest in the assets or net profits of such
person. The General Partner may rely upon a written representation from any such
lessee to the

                                       10
<PAGE>
 
Partnership that none of the circumstances described in this Subparagraph (vi)
exists with respect to such lessee;

        (vii) any termination of any lease which required the Limited Partners'
approval under subsections (i)-(vi) above other than a termination caused by
default of tenant;

        (viii) any consent to any assignment of or sublease under any lease to
the extent required thereunder which required Limited Partners' approval under
subsections (i)-(vi) above; and

        (ix) any amendment or modification of any lease which required Limited
Partners' approval under subsections (i) - (vi) above, to the extent such
amendment or modification would decrease (or could decrease) the net amounts
realizable by the Partnership under such lease, would materially decrease the
obligations of the tenant thereunder, would materially increase the obligations
of the Partnership thereunder, would release any tenant or lease guarantor
thereunder or would materially reduce the rights of the Partnership thereunder.

In the event that the General Partner delivers to the Limited Partners the final
form of a lease pursuant to subsection (v) herein or a lease which the General
Partner proposes to execute on behalf of the Partnership together with a written
request from the General Partner to the Limited Partners that the Limited
Partners approve such form of lease, Limited Partners shall be deemed to have
approved such form of lease or lease if the Limited Partners fall to object
within ten (10) days after the date of their receipt of such proposed form of
lease or lease and written request.
 
        (b) Each lease executed by the Partnership shall contain the following
provisions:

          "(i) Landlord is a California limited partnership composed of Redwood
  Shores MIP Inc., a California corporation ("RS-MIP"), as the general partner,
  and MIP Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("MlP") (which operates as a
  real estate investment trust), J.H.R. Trust and Harvey E. Chapman, Jr., as
  limited partners.  RS-MIP is a wholly owned subsidiary of MIP.  The
  obligations of MIP and/or RS-MIP shall be binding only on MIP and/or RS-MIP,
  respectively, and not upon any of the shareholders, directors, officers,
  trustees, advisors, managers or employees of MIP or RS-MIP in their individual
  capacities, and with respect to any obligations of RS-MIP to Tenant, if any,
  Tenant shall look solely to the assets of RS-MIP and not to the assets of MIP
  or any shareholder, director, officer, trustee, advisor, manager or employee
  of RS-MIP and/or MIP in the exercise of any rights or remedies under this
  Lease.

        (ii) If MIP in good faith determines that its status as a real estate
investment trust under the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as heretofore or hereafter amended, will be jeopardized because of any
provision of this Lease, Landlord may request reasonable amendments to this
Lease and Tenant shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent thereto,
provided that such modifications do not in any way (A) increase the obligations
of Tenant under this Lease or (B) adversely affect any rights of or benefits to
Tenant under this Lease. Landlord shall pay all reasonable costs incurred by
Tenant, including without limitation, legal fees reviewing any such proposed
modifications.

        (iii) Tenant agrees that Landlord need not itself directly manage or
otherwise service all or any part of the Premises, but Landlord may cause any
managing, maintenance, operation, construction and other services to Tenant to
be performed by Landlord's agent, who shall act as an independent contractor,
provided, however, that such acknowledgment by Tenant shall not be deemed in any
manner to release Landlord from any of its obligations set forth in this Lease."

  3.04  Powers and Obligations of the General Partner. In addition to the
        ---------------------------------------------                    
specific rights and powers herein granted, the General Partner shall possess,
enjoy and may exercise all of the rights and powers of a general partner as more
particularly provided by the California Revised Limited Partnership Act, subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The General Partner alone shall
have the full and complete charge of all affairs of 

                                       11
<PAGE>
 
the Partnership, and the management and control of the Partnership business
shall rest exclusively with the General Partner, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement. The General Partner shall carry out the business
of the Partnership and shall devote such time to the Partnership as is necessary
for the efficient operation of the Partnership's business. In conducting the
Partnership's business and affairs, the General Partner shall operate within the
then operative Approved Operating Budget except as otherwise expressly stated
herein. Subject to the foregoing, nothing herein contained shall prevent the
General Partner or any of its representatives from devoting time to other
businesses, whether or not similar nature to the business of the Partnership.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the General Partner shall do
and shall have the authority and power to do the following:

        (a) Cause to be disbursed regularly and punctually from Partnership
funds all amounts due and payable as operating expenses of the Project and the
Partnership.

        (b) Obtain and maintain policies of insurance as may from time to time
be required to be obtained and maintained by the Partnership pursuant to the
First Priority Loan Documents and/or the MIP Loan Documents or other agreements
to which the Partnership is a party, provided, however, that the General Partner
shall in any event cause the Partnership to maintain (i) $3,000,000 combined
single limit comprehensive liability insurance including completed operations
and contractual liability; (ii) not less than twelve (12) months' loss of rents
insurance, as well as fire and hazard insurance in the amount of full
replacement cost. The General Partner shall furnish, or cause to be furnished,
to the Limited Partners at the conclusion of each Partnership Fiscal Year a
listing of the insurance policies then outstanding and in full force as to the
Project and the Partnership. All policies shall name the Partnership and all
Partners as insureds. The General Partner shall furnish the Limited Partners
with certificates of insurance, which shall provide that the Limited Partners
will be given reasonable advance notice of any cancellation.

        (c) Enforce the terms and conditions of all contracts, leases and other
agreements to which the Partnership is from time to time a party and to report
to the Partners all significant action taken from time to time by the General
Partner to enforce the terms and conditions thereof.

        (d) Cause the Partnership to comply with all applicable legal
requirements and to discharge all of the Partnership's duties, responsibilities
and obligations under agreements, including, without limitation, the MONY Loan
and the MIP/CREI Loan, to which it is from time to time a party.

        (e) Lease vacant space in the Project, subject to the limitations set
forth in Article 3.03 and Article 3.05.

        (f) Contract on behalf of the Partnership for budgeted supplies,
equipment, repairs, improvements or services.

        (g) Prosecute, defend, waive, settle or compromise claims and causes of
action (in contract, tort or otherwise), by or against the Partnership, provided
that the General Partner shall not prosecute, waive, settle or compromise any
claim or cause of action (or related group of claims or causes of action) of the
Partnership against any third party (or parties) with a value in excess of Ten
Thousand Dollars ($10,000) without the prior written consent of the Limited
Partners.

        (h) Temporarily invest Partnership funds in interest bearing accounts,
commercial paper, government securities, certificates of deposit or similar
investments.

        (i) In the event of an emergency, make such expenditures or incur such
obligations as may reasonably be required by such emergency, but not in excess
of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) in the aggregate for each emergency.  The
General Partner shall notify the Limited Partners of any such emergency
immediately by telephone and shall confirm such notification in writing as soon
as practicable.

                                       12
<PAGE>
 
        (j) As and when requested by the Limited Partners, General Partner will
promptly furnish to the Limited Partners copies of all subdivision or parcel
maps, permits, plans, specifications, working drawings, bonds, subcontracts,
purchase orders, change orders, surveys, certifications, title company
endorsements, and other operating documents reflecting the status of the
Project.  Copies of any such data furnished by the General Partner to the
Limited Partners which have been prepared by the General Partner shall, if
requested by the Limited Partners, be verified by the General Partner as being
true and correct copies.

  3.05  Restrictions on General Partner. The General Partner shall not, without
        -------------------------------                                        
the prior written consent of the Limited Partners:

        (a) Do any act, or fail to perform any act, in contravention of this
Agreement in its present form or as amended, or which would make it impossible
to carry on the ordinary business of the Partnership.

        (b) Confess a judgment against the Partnership except as provided in
Article 3.04(g).

        (c) Possess the Partnership property in its name, or assign the

        (d) Admit any other person or entity as a partner except as otherwise

        (e) Sell, exchange, assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise dispose

        (f) Sell, exchange, assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise dispose

procure, directly or indirectly, purchasers, assignees or transferees for any of
the Partnership's personal property, tangible or intangible, except in
connection with the replacement of equipment and other personal property as
required in the ordinary course of operating the Project.

        (g) Acquire by lease, purchase or otherwise, any real or personal

        (h) Incur any unbudgeted expenditure for non-emergency capital repairs,

Approved Operating Budget, not required under any lease or other contract to
which the Partnership is from time to time a party or not required by any
applicable governmental statute, ordinance or regulation to which the
Partnership or its property is subject.

        (i) Enter into or terminate, change or modify any lease, except as
otherwise permitted in Article 3.03 hereof.

        (j) Except as otherwise permitted elsewhere in this amended Agreement,

and other proceeds are to be used solely and exclusively for Partnership
purposes and shall be held at all times as a trust fund on behalf of the
Partnership only.

        (m) Directly or indirectly make or enter into any contract with or pay,

or maintain any Partnership funds in other than an account or accounts in the
Partnership name as provided in Article 10.

        (o) Manage or operate any real property owned by the Partnership, other
than pursuant to a written agreement with an independent contractor, which

the independent contractor and that the independent contractor shall retain all
servicing income, if any, attributable to non-customary services and other
income within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2)(c) of the Code. As used in this

employees of, or have officers who are Partners, the Partnership or officers of
MIP;

       (p) Commit at any time, any act which MIP has previously advised the
Partners in writing might, under the terms and provisions of (1) the Code; (2)
the Regulations from time to time promulgated under the Code; or (3) Revenue
Rulings or Revenue Procedures issued by the Internal Revenue Service, adversely
affect the qualifications of MIP as a Real Estate Investment Trust under Section
856 of the Code or cause income received by the Partnership to not be within the
classifications contained in Action 856(c)(2) or (c)(3) of the Code or cause
income received by the Partnership to be classified as "net income derived from
prohibited transactions" under Section 857(b)(6) of the Code or cause income
received by MIP to be income described in Section 856(c)(4) of the Code. Such
limitations may include a prohibition on rehabilitation and/or capital
improvements to the Project by the Partnership.  The General Partner agrees to
indemnify and hold MIP harmless from and against any loss, cost, damage or
expense including without limitation any penalty tax assessed against MIP with
respect to the occurrence of any of the foregoing based on the General Partner's
actions (unless specifically consented to by MIP); provided, however, that the
General Partner shall not be deemed to be in default of this subparagraph (p)
with respect to any such act or obligation incurred prior to actual receipt by
the General Partner of the written notice required hereunder.

       (q) Enter into any lease which provides, or amend any lease in order to
provide, or approve any sublease which provides, for rent which is based in
whole or in part on the income or profits derived by any 

                                       14

1221(1); or

       (s) Enter into a lease of property under or in connection with which the

  3.06  Indemnity. The General Partner does hereby indemnify and agree to hold
        ---------                                                             
the Partnership wholly harmless from and against any loss, expense or damage
suffered by them by reason of anything which the General Partner may do or
refrain from doing hereafter in willful breach of its obligations under the
terms of this Agreement, or its willful misconduct or gross negligence in
performing or in failing to perform its duties hereunder or its taking of any
action beyond the authority of the General Partner hereunder.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in no event shall the General Partner be responsible for any
obligation or liability of the Partnership which relates to the period the Trust
and Chapman were the sole general partners in the Partnership.  The Trust and
Chapman acknowledge and agree that they are not released from any and all
obligations and liabilities of the Partnership incurred during or related to the
time they were the sole general partners in the Partnership, and among other
things, the Trust and Chapman shall indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership,
MIP and RS-MIP from and against any loss, cost, expense or damage incurred in or
relating to the period the Trust and Chapman were the general partners
hereunder, to the same extent of their indemnity obligations contained in the
Partnership Agreement as in effect prior to this Amended Agreement.

  3.07  Restrictions and Limitations on Limited Partners.  The Limited
        ------------------------------------------------              
Partners, shall have no right, power or authority to act for or bind the
Partnership.  The Limited Partners shall take no part in the conduct or control
of the Partnership business; provided, however, that the General Partner must
obtain the written consent of the Limited Partners prior to entering into
certain transactions described in Articles 3.01, 3.02, 3.03, 3.04 and 3.05, and,
provided further, that all matters affecting the Partnership which the
California Revised Limited Partnership Act specifically permits limited partners
to vote upon without being deemed thereby to participate in the control of the
Partnership business shall be subject to Limited Partners' approval, including,
without limitation, such matters as termination of the Partnership, amendment of
the Agreement, and sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Partnership.  The Limited Partners, or their agents or representatives, shall
have the right at all times to enter upon the Land and the Improvements, and
shall have access during working hours to all Project records and documents in
or under the control of the General Partner located away from the Project.

  3.08  Compensation to Partner.
        ----------------------- 

       (a) No Compensation. Except for participation in Cash Flow, as provided
           ---------------                                                    
for in Article 6, and the compensation provided for in this Article 3.08, no
Partner nor any entity owned or controlled by any Partner nor any family member
related to any Partner or constituent partner thereof, shall directly or
indirectly receive any salary or other compensation from the Partnership for
services, nor shall it or any of them have any drawing account or expense
accounts in the Partnership.

       (b) Property Management.  The Partnership has entered into a property
           -------------------                                              
management agreement (the "Management Agreement") with Raiser Shorebreeze
Property Management Company, a California corporation ("RPMC").  RPMC shall
continue as the property manager unless and until any of the foregoing shall
first occur:  (i) the death or disability of John A. Raiser and/or Harvey E.
Chapman, Jr.; (ii) the failure of RPMC or any affiliated management company
owned by John A. Raiser to maintain management contracts for at least three
hundred thousand (300,000) square feet of office and/or research and development
space in addition to the Project; (iii) the failure of RPMC to maintain, in RS-
MIP's reasonable discretion, adequate accounting and property management systems
and the continuation of such failure for forty-five (45) days after written
notice to RPMC from General Partner specifying the deficiencies in such systems;
(iv) the failure of RPMC to provide its services 

                                       15
<PAGE>
 
as property manager for a fee no greater than would otherwise be charged by
unaffiliated property managers of comparable skill and expertise and the
continuation of such failure for fifteen (15) days after written notice to RPMC
from General Partner of the amount by which RPMC's fee exceeds such standard;
(v) the failure of RPMC to qualify as an independent contractor pursuant to
Article 3.05(p); or (v) the Trust and Chapman cease to be Partners in the
Partnership and/or the Partnership no longer owns the Project. RPMC is currently
paid a property management fee each month in an amount equal to three percent
(3%) of the gross rental receipts received by the Partnership from tenants of
the Project, exclusive of security deposits, reimbursements for tenant
improvements and operating costs. The Management Agreement provides that the
RPMC agrees that the leasing and management of the Project shall be performed in
such a manner as to comply with the provisions of (S)856(d)(2)(C) of the Code.
Specifically, RPMC, as property manager,shall be solely responsible for
providing all tenant services and, if services not customary for similar
buildings in the area are to be provided to tenants, the property manager shall
bear all costs of providing such services, shall make a separate charge to
tenants for such services (which charge shall be in an amount sufficient to
provide adequate compensation to the property manager for such services), and
shall retain all service income for non-customary services to tenants so that
the Partnership shall not derive or receive any non-customary service income or
other income from the property manager. All Partners acknowledge and agree that
so long as RPMC is the property manager, General Partner, shall not be obligated
to obtain the consent of the Trust and Chapman with respect to any matter in
this Partnership Agreement requiring the consent of such Limited Partners, to
the extent any such matter is recommended or approved by RPMC as property
manager. As an example, any lease proposed to the Partnership by RPMC, shall not
require the prior consent of the Trust and Chapman pursuant to Article 3.03
above. Likewise, so long as RPMC is the property manager, General Partner shall
delegate to RPMC, General Partner's obligation; (A) to prepare an Approved
Operating Budget set forth in Article 3.02 (subject to General Partner's
approval); (B) to prepare leases as set forth in Article 3.03 (subject to
General Partner's approval); (C) with respect to the day to day affairs of the
Partnership set forth in Articles 3.04(a) through (i); and (D) the obligation to
maintain a bank account and maintain books and records and prepare various
reports, financial statements, and tax returns, as set forth in Articles 10 and
11. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Limited Partners acknowledge and agree that
the General Partner may from time to time present prospective leases to the
Limited Partners and RPMC and that Limited Partners and RPMC shall accept such
leases unless (I) the Limited Partners reasonably object to any such proposed
lease as being on terms and conditions not as favorable as other available
prospective leases then being negotiated in the Redwood Shores area for
buildings comparable to the Project, (II) the Limited Partners reasonably
determine that the tenant under such proposed lease presents an unreasonable
credit risk to the Partnership, or (III) RPMC is engaged in lease negotiations
for substantially the same space with another tenant on terms and conditions
comparable or better than the lease proposed by General Partner. The Management
Agreement shall be amended to be consistent with the foregoing. RPMC shall have
the authority to execute approved leases on behalf of the Partnership. In the
event either Chapman, the Trust or RPMC, on the one hand, or General Partner, on
the other hand, propose a lease to the other, the applicable party shall approve
or disapprove such lease within ten (10) days from and after the date of its
receipt of such proposed lease, and if any such party shall fail to disapprove a
lease within such ten (10) day period, such party shall be deemed to have
approved such lease.

                     PARTNERS CONTRIBUTIONS TO PARTNERSHIP
                     -------------------------------------
                                        
  4.01  Additional Contributions.
        ------------------------ 

       General Partner and Limited Partners shall contribute, on a pro rata
basis in proportion to their respective Percentage Ownership Interests, all
additional capital required by the Partnership to pay all costs which are
incurred by the Partnership to the extent that the Partnership does not have
sufficient funds to pay such costs ("Additional Contributions"). Such Additional
Contributions, if any, shall be credited to the Unrecovered Contributions
Account of the Partners to the extent of their respective contributions.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Partner shall be obligated to fund Additional
Contributions.  In the event a Partner(s) funds 

                                       16
<PAGE>
 
Additional Contributions and the other Partner(s) fail to so fund Additional
Contributions, the nonfunding Partner(s) shall in no event be deemed to be in
default hereunder and the Partner(s) that so fund any such Additional
Contributions shall not be entitled to elect any remedy against the nonfunding
Partner(s). All Additional Contributions contributed by any Partner shall earn
Cumulative Preferred Return thereon, as defined in Article 1.08, which
Cumulative Preferred Return shall receive a priority distribution as set forth
in Article 6 below.

  4.02  Calls for Capital Contributions. The General Partner shall make demand
        -------------------------------                                       
upon the Partners in writing for capital contributions to be made in accordance
herewith. Calls for capital shall be made when reasonably necessary to ensure
the continued operation of the Partnership in accordance with the applicable
Approved Operating Budget.  In the event of a failure of the General Partner to
call for capital when required by the Partnership, the Limited Partners shall
have the right to make demand upon the Partners in writing for capital
contributions to be made in accordance herewith. Each Partner shall have thirty
(30) days from the date of receipt of such notice to either in make the
requisite capital contribution or notify the other Partners that it does not
intend to make such capital contribution.

  4.03  Capital Contributions in General. Except as otherwise expressly provided
        --------------------------------                                        
in this Agreement or as otherwise agreed in writing by the Partners: (a) no part
of the contributions of any Partner to the capital of the Partnership may be
withdrawn by such Partner, (b) no Partner shall be entitled to receive interest
on such Partner's contributions to the capital of the Partnership, (c) no
Partner shall have the right to demand or receive property other than cash in
return for such Partner's contribution to the Partnership, (d) no Partner shall
be personally liable beyond the extent of its Percentage Ownership Interest to
any other Partner for any failure to contribute capital to the Partnership when
required, provided, however that the foregoing shall not in any way restrict the
rights of MIP and RS-MIP, as applicable, as lenders to establish personal
liability against the Partnership and its Partners through judicial foreclosure
(to the extent permitted in such loan documents), nor shall the foregoing
restrict in the case of any Partner's failure to contribute capital (but subject
to the limitations described herein on each such Partner's obligation to
contribute capital to the Partnership), the rights of any Partner to seek
contribution from any other Partner in order to pay claims or judgments rendered
in favor of any third party creditors of the Partnership.

                        ALLOCATION OF PROFITS AND LOSSES
                        --------------------------------
                                        
  5.01  Net Profits and Losses. At the end of each Fiscal Year after all special
        ----------------------
allocations required under this Agreement have been made, the Partnership shall
make the following allocations in the following order:

       (a) All Net Profit other than from Extraordinary Events or all Net
Losses, as the case may be, of the Partnership shall be allocated Ten Percent
(10%) to the Trust and Chapman, in accordance with the ratio in which each such
Partner's Percentage Ownership Interest bears to the sum of Percentage Ownership
Interests for such Partners and Ninety Percent (90%) to MIP and RS-MIP in
accordance with the ratio in which each such Partner's Percentage Ownership
Interest bears to the sum of Percentage Ownership Interests for such Partners.

       (b) Any Net Profits of the Partnership arising from an Extraordinary
Event shall be allocated to and apportioned among the Partners with negative
Capital Account balances at the end of such Fiscal Year, each in the ratio which
the negative balance in such Partner's Capital Account bears to the aggregate
negative balances in the Capital Accounts of all such Partners, until and to the
extent required to cause the balance in each such Partner's Capital Account to
equal zero.  All remaining Net Profits during such Fiscal Year arising from
Extraordinary Events shall be allocated among the Partners in such proportions
as would result, as closely as possible, in the respective Capital Account
balances of the Partners as of the end of such Fiscal Year (after adjusting
Capital Accounts for all other allocations for such Fiscal Year, including each
such Partner's share of any remaining minimum gain under Treasury Regulations
Section 1.704-2) equaling the amount of distributions 

                                       17
<PAGE>
 
such Partners would receive if an amount equal to the aggregate balance of all
such Capital Accounts as of the end of such Fiscal Year were distributed to the
Partners in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.02 below.

  5.02  Special Allocation of Gross Income and Deductions.
        ------------------------------------------------- 

        (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in
determining Net Profits and Net Losses, there shall first be made a special
allocation to any applicable Partner of gross income of the Partnership (such
gross income to be determined before deduction of any expenses of the
Partnership) to the extent (i) amounts distributed to such Partner during the
current and all prior Fiscal Years to pay Cumulative Preferred Return pursuant
to Article 6 below, when such Cumulative Preferred Return is being paid with
respect to Additional Contributions made by such Partner during the current and
all prior Fiscal Years which were not funded by all Partners on a pro rata
basis, exceeds (ii) the aggregate amount of gross income previously allocated to
such Partner under this Section 5.02(a).

        (b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in
determining Net Profits and Net Losses, there shall first be made a special
allocation to any applicable Partner of gross deductions of the Partnership to
the extent (i) Additional Contributions made by such Partner during the current
and all prior Fiscal Years which were not funded by all Partners on a pro rata
basis, exceeds, (ii) the aggregate amount of deductions previously allocated to
such Partner under this Section 5.02(b).

  5.03  Allocation of Net Profits and Net Losses Following Adjustment to
        ----------------------------------------------------------------
Percentage Ownership Interests. In the event the Percentage Ownership Interests
- ------------------------------                                                 
of the Partners are adjusted during a Fiscal Year, the Partnership's books
shall, unless otherwise agreed by the Partners or otherwise required by the
applicable provisions of the Code, be closed as of the date immediately
preceding the date of such adjustment, and all allocations of Net Profits and
Net Losses accrued from the beginning of such Fiscal Year (or, if later, the
date of the most recent prior adjustment in Percentage Ownership Interests)
until such immediately preceding date shall be made pursuant to the applicable
provisions of this Article 5 in effect immediately prior to the date of
adjustment, and such Net Profits and Net Losses accruing thereafter shall be
allocated pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Article 5 except that
any allocation of such Net Profit or Net Losses accruing thereafter based on the
Partners' Percentage Ownership Interests shall be allocated according to the
Percentage Ownership Interests of the Partners, as so adjusted.

  5.04  Liability of Limited Partner for Partnership Debts and Liabilities. The
        ------------------------------------------------------------------     
interest of the Limited Partners in the assets of the Partnership shall at all
times be subject to the valid obligations and liabilities of the Partnership.
The Limited Partners shall not otherwise have any liability for the
Partnership's debts, obligations or liabilities; provided, however, that the
Trust and Chapman shall not be released from any debts, obligations or
liabilities which they had as general partners of the Partnership which relate
to the period the Trust and Chapman were the sole general partners of the
Partnership. Notwithstanding anything otherwise herein contained, MIP shall not
be liable to the Partnership or other Partners for any of the debts or
obligations of the Partnership or any other losses thereof in excess of the
capital contribution previously made by MIP.

  5.05  Minimum Gain.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 5 to
        ------------                                                          
the contrary, if during any Fiscal Year of the Partnership there is a net
decrease in the Partnership minimum gain (as such term is defined by Treasury
Regulations Section I.704-2), then each Partner shall be allocated items of
Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, for subsequent
years) to the extent required by Treasury Regulations Section I.704-2(f).
Likewise, if there is a net decrease during any Fiscal Year of the Partnership
in the minimum gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt, then any Partner
with a share of the minimum gain attributable to such debt at the beginning of
such year shall be allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year
(and, if necessary, for subsequent years) to the extent required by Treasury
Regulations Section I.704-2(i).  This Section 5.05 is intended to comply with,
and shall be interpreted to be consistent with, the minimum gain chargeback
requirements of Treasury Regulations Section I.704-2.

  5.06  Section 704(c). To the extent required by Treasury Regulations Sections
        --------------
I.704-1(b)(4)(i) or I.704-3, if the Book Value of any property of the
Partnership differs from its adjusted tax basis at the time of contribution, or
after an adjustment of Book Values agreed to by all Partners as described in
Section 1.06 above, tax items with respect to such property shall be shared
among the Partners in a manner that takes account of such variation in
accordance with any method described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3
which is reasonably agreed to by the Partners.

  5.07  Partner Loan Nonrecourse Deductions. Partner Loan Nonrecourse Deductions
        -----------------------------------
for any Fiscal Year of the Partnership shall be allocated to the Partner who
bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the loan to which such Partner
Loan Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable to the extent required by Treasury
Regulations Section I.704-2(i).

                           -------------------------
                                        
  6.01   Distribution of Ordinary Cash Flow.
         ---------------------------------- 

        (a) Ordinary Cash Flow of the Partnership shall be distributed with
respect to each Fiscal Year of the Partnership in the following order of
priority:

            (i) first, to all Partners who have made Additional Contributions,
pro rata, based on the outstanding balance of accrued but unpaid Cumulative
Preferred Return for all such Partners, until and to the extent required to
reduce all such Partner's accrued but unpaid Cumulative Preferred Return
attributable to Additional Contributions to zero;

            (ii) second, to the Partners, pro rata, based on the positive
balance in their respective Unrecovered Contributions Accounts attributable to
Additional Contributions, until and to the extent required to reduce such
Unrecorded Contributions Account to zero; and

            (iii) thereafter, to the Partners in proportion to their respective
Percentage Ownership Interests.

        (b) Distributions of Ordinary Cash Flow shall be made provisionally with
respect to each calendar month as soon as is practicable after the end of such
month.  Following the end of each Fiscal Year of the Partnership (and after
determination of the actual amount of Ordinary Cash Flow for such Fiscal Year),
the above provisional distributions of Ordinary Cash Flow to the Partners with
respect to such Fiscal Year shall be recomputed on the basis of the actual
amount of Operating Cash Flow of the Partnership for such Fiscal Year. If, as a
result of the provisional distributions of Ordinary Cash Flow made during the
course of such Fiscal Year, the total amount of such distributions received by a
Partner is greater than the total amount of the distributions such Partner
should have received after such distributions are thus recomputed for such
Fiscal Year, such Partner shall recontribute such excess amount to the
Partnership and such recontributed amounts shall then be distributed to the
Partners in such manner as will cause the total amount of distributions made to
each Partner to equal the amount of the total distributions which should have
been made to such Partner, as so recomputed. Distributions of Ordinary Cash Flow
which reduce a Partner's Unrecovered Contributions Account will be deemed to
return Capital Contributions on a last in, first out basis.

  6.02  Distribution of Extraordinary Cash Flow.
        --------------------------------------- 

        (a) Extraordinary Cash Flow of the Partnership shall be distributed to
the Partners as soon as practicable following the Partnership's receipt thereof
in the following order of priority:

                                       19
<PAGE>
 
            (i) first, to the Partners, pro rata, based on the outstanding
balance of accrued but unpaid Cumulative Preferred Return for all such Partners
until and to the extent required to reduce all such Partner's accrued but unpaid
Cumulative Preferred Return attributable to Additional Contributions to zero;

            (ii) second, to the Partners, pro rata, based on the positive
balance in their respective Unrecovered Contributions Accounts attributable to
Additional Contributions, until and to the extent required to reduce such
Unrecovered Contributions Account attributable to Additional Contributions to
zero; and

            (iii) third, thereafter, to the Partners in proportion to their
respective Percentage Ownership interests.
 
        (b) Distributions of Extraordinary Cash Flow which reduce a Partner's
Unrecovered Contributions Account will be deemed to return Capital Contributions
on a last in, first out basis.

  6.03  Distribution of Cash Flow Following Adjustment to Percentage Ownership

adjusted during a Fiscal Year, the Partnership's books shall, unless otherwise
agreed by the Partners or otherwise required by the applicable provisions of the
Code, be closed as of the date immediately preceding the date of such adjustment
and all Ordinary Cash Flow received by the Partnership from the beginning of the
calendar quarter in which such immediately preceding date falls through such
immediately preceding date shall be distributed pursuant to the provisions of
Article 6.01 in effect prior to the date of adjustment, and Ordinary Cash Flow
received thereafter shall be distributed pursuant to the provisions of Article
6.01 except that any allocation based on the Partner's Percentage Ownership
Interests shall be allocated according to the Percentage Ownership Interests of
the Partners, as so adjusted. Unless otherwise agreed among the Partners,
Extraordinary Cash Flow realized by the Partnership during such period shall,
notwithstanding any such adjustment in Percentage Ownership Interests, be
distributed pursuant to the provisions of Article 6.02 except that any
allocation based on the Partner's Percentage Ownership Interests shall be

not be distributed in kind to the Partners without the prior approval of all
Partners. If any assets of the Partnership are distributed to the Partners in
kind, for purposes of this Agreement, such assets shall be valued on the basis
of the Gross Asset Value thereof (without taking into account Section 7701(g) of
the Code) on the date of distribution, and any Partner entitled to any interest
in such assets shall receive such interest as a tenant-in-common with the other
Partner(s) so entitled with an undivided interest in such assets in the amount
agreed to by such Partners.

ownership thereof; or

        (d) The transfer by MIP or RS-MIP of all or any portion of their
respective Partnership Interest at any time to a partnership of which either
such entity or an affiliate of either is a partner.

  7.03  Admission of Substituted Partners. In the event the transferring Partner
        ---------------------------------                                       
sells, assigns, transfers or conveys its Partnership Interest, or portion
thereof, to a third party in accordance with the provisions of this Article 7
and the third party is designated by the transferring Partner as a substituted
partner, such third party shall be entitled to be admitted to the Partnership as
a substituted Partner, and this Agreement shall be amended if required by the
California Revised Limited Partnership Act to reflect such admission, provided
that the following conditions are complied with:

        (a) The remaining Partners shall reasonably approve of the form and
content of the instrument of assignment.

        (b) The assignor and assignee named therein execute and acknowledge such
other instrument or instruments as the remaining Partners may reasonably deem

the Partnership.

        (e) Such assignor or assignee pays, as the remaining Partners may
reasonably determine, all reasonable expense incurred in connection with such

or laws of any state which may be applicable thereto is available.

  An assignee of an interest in the Partnership shall be entitled to be admitted
to the Partnership as a substituted partner upon the compliance with paragraphs
(a) through (f) of this Article 7.03 by the assignor and/or assignee of such
interest, as the case may be.

  7.04  Transfer of a Partnership Interest.  If any Partner (the "Transferor")
        ----------------------------------                                    
desires to transfer all or a portion of its interest as a Partner in the
Partnership, the Transferor shall give all other Partners written notice (the
"Notice") of its proposal to transfer, the terms of the proposed transfer, and
the portion of its Partnership Interest which it proposes to transfer (the
"Transfer Interest"). The other Partners shall have an option for a period of
thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice to acquire all of the Transfer
Interest on the terms stated in the Offer, pro rata, based on the respective
Percentage Ownership Interests of the electing Partners; provided, however, that
Chapman shall have the first right to solely purchase the Trust's Transfer
Interest and the Trust shall have the first right to solely purchase Chapman's
Interest, in each case such election must be made within thirty (30) days after
receipt of the Notice.   If the Transfer Interest of either Chapman or the Trust
is the subject of a Notice, and the other of them shall fail to exercise the
option to acquire such interest, the other Partners may elect, by notice given
within fifteen (15) days following the receipt of written notice that either
such Partner has 

                                       21
<PAGE>
 
elected not to so acquire the Transfer Interest of the other, to participate,
pro rata, based on the respective Percentage Ownership Interests of the electing
Partners in the purchase of the Transfer Interest on the same terms. If no
Partner exercises the foregoing option to purchase the Transfer Interest, the
Transferor shall be free to transfer the offered interest on the terms set forth
in the Notice at any time within ninety (90) days after the expiration of the
aforesaid option period.

  7.05  Additional Restrictions on Transfer of General Partner's Partnership
        --------------------------------------------------------------------
Interest.
- -------- 

        (a) Whenever any General Partner or other holder of a general
partnership interest in the Partnership transfers its interest pursuant to the
provisions hereof, the transferee shall assume in writing all of the obligations
and liabilities attendant to the transferred Partnership Interest and shall
otherwise be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to the
transferor; provided, however, that unless the transferee is admitted as a
General Partner to the Partnership, the transferor shall remain jointly and
severally liable with such transferee with respect to such obligations,
liabilities and provisions.

        (b) Any transfer by a General Partner or a permitted transferee of such
General Partner of all or any portion of its interest shall, at the election of
the transferring Partner and upon approval of the Limited Partners, constitute
the transferee of a General Partner and shall entitle such transferee to
exercise any management and voting rights as set forth herein and any of the
other rights of a General Partner, including the right to receive the cash
distributions and allocations of income, gain and loss attendant to the
transferred interest. The admission of such transferee as a General Partner
shall not dissolve the Partnership.

  7.06  Transferor Remains Liable. The transferor of a Partnership Interest
        -------------------------
under this Article 7 shall remain liable for its obligations hereunder
notwithstanding any such transfer, except as otherwise indicated herein.

  7.07  Restrictions On Assignees. An assignee of a Partnership Interest, or
        -------------------------                                           
portion thereof, who does not become a substituted Partner shall have no right
to require any information or accounting of the Partnership's transactions, to
inspect the Partnership books, or to vote on any of the matters as to which a
Partner would be entitled to vote under this Agreement. Such assignee shall only
be entitled to receive the share of the Cash Flow or other compensation, or the
return of his contributions, to which his assignor would otherwise be entitled.

  7.08  Allocations Between Transferor and Transferee. Except as otherwise
        ---------------------------------------------
agreed between the transferor and transferee and permitted by applicable law,
upon the transfer of all or any part of the Partnership Interest of a Partner as
hereinabove provided, Net Profits and Net Losses shall be allocated between the
transferor and transferee pursuant to a computational method the Partners
reasonably determine is appropriate, provided such computational method conforms
with the methods prescribed by Treasury Regulation (S)706-1(c)(2)(ii).
Distributions of Cash Flow shall be made to the holder of record of the
Partnership Interest on the date of distribution.

  7.09  Election. In the event of a transfer of a Partnership Interest, or any
        --------                                                              
portion thereof, by any Partner, the death of a Partner or the distribution of
any property of the Partnership to a Partner, the Partnership will file, at the
request of the transferee Partners an election in accordance with applicable
Treasury Regulations, to cause the basis of the Partnership property to be
adjusted for federal income tax purposes as provided by Sections 734 and 743 of
the Code. Any cost incurred in filing such election shall be borne by the
Partner requesting that such election be made. Subject to the provisions of
Treasury Regulation Section 1.704(b), adjustments to the adjusted tax basis of
Partnership property under Sections 743 and 732(d) of the Code shall not be
reflected on the books of the Partnership, and subsequent adjustments for
distributions, depreciation, amortization, and gain or loss with respect to such
property shall disregard the effect of such basis adjustment.

  7.10 Second-Tier Partnership.  Notwithstanding anything otherwise herein
       -----------------------                                            
contained, MIP and/or RS-MIP shall have the right to transfer and assign their
respective Partnership Interests to a second-tier partnership or 

                                       22
<PAGE>
 
partnerships to be formed by MIP and/or RS-MIP in which MIP, RS-MIP and/or the
designee or either would be the general partner.

  7.11 Partition; Withdrawal. No Partner shall have the right to partition any
       ---------------------                                                  
of the Project nor shall a Partner make application to any court or authority to
commence or prosecute any action or proceeding for a partition thereof, and upon
any breach of the provisions of this Article 7.11 by a Partner, the other
Partner (in addition to all rights and remedies afforded by law or entity) shall
be entitled to a decree or order restraining or enjoining such application,
actions or proceedings. No Partner shall have the right to withdraw from the
Partnership.

  7.12 Termination for Tax Purposes. Unless such sale or transfer occurs
       ----------------------------                                     
pursuant to this Article 7 hereof, no Partner shall be permitted to sell or
transfer its Partnership Interest without the consent of the other Partners if
such transfer would terminate the Partnership for federal income tax purposes
pursuant to Section 708(b)(1)(B) of the Code; provided, however, that any
interest may be transferred notwithstanding such termination if either (i) the
transferor furnished to the Partnership an opinion of counsel, which opinion and
counsel are reasonably acceptable to the nontransferring Partner, to the effect
that neither the Partnership nor the nontransferring Partner will incur or
suffer any adverse tax consequences (including without limitation, the
realization of income or gain or investment tax credit recapture by the
nontransferring Partner, the use of a less rapid method of depreciation with
respect to Partnership assets than that used by the Partnership immediately
prior to the proposed transfer); or (ii) the transferor agrees to hold the
Partnership and the other Partner harmless from any such adverse tax
consequences and increased tax liability resulting therefrom and from any
expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys and accountants' fees)
relating to the determination or contest of any tax liability which may result
from such determination. In the event of any such termination of the Partnership
under Section 708(b)(1)(B) of the Code, the assets of the Partnership shall be
deemed to be distributed in accordance with the in-kind distribution provisions
of Article 6.04 to the Partners as tenants-in-common and immediately thereafter
contributed to the capital of a new partnership by and among the Partners
governed by a partnership agreement identical to the provisions of this
Agreement.

  8.01  Buy/Sell.
        -------- 

        (a) At any time after the eighteenth (18th) month from and after the
date hereof, either the Trust and Chapman, on the one hand, or MIP and RS-MIP on
the other hand (such Partners being herein referred to as the "Offeror") shall
have the right to provide the other Partners (the "Offeree") with an offer (the
"Offer") stating that the Offeror would be willing to purchase an undivided one
hundred percent (100%) interest in the assets of the Partnership at a purchase
price (the "Purchase Price") to be determined in accordance with Article 8.04
below and furnishing evidence of the Offeror's ability to satisfy any obligation
to purchase hereunder. In order for an Offer to be effective, the Offeror must
include therein the designation of an MAI Appraiser, as defined in Article 8.04
below. After the Purchase Price is determined, the Offeror shall have a period
of three (3) days to retract its Offer or elect to proceed with the Offer. The
failure of the Offeror to so retract its Offer in writing shall be deemed a
conclusive election to proceed with the offer.

       (b) After receipt of the Offer given and delivered pursuant to Article
8.01(a), the Offeree shall then be obligated, in accordance with the provisions
of Article 8.02, either to:

            (i) purchase the Offeror's interest in the assets of the Partnership
for cash at a purchase price equal to the amount which would have been payable
to the Offeror had the assets of the Partnership then been sold for cash equal
in amount to the Purchase Price and such cash proceeds had been distributed in
accordance with Article 12.02; or

                                       23
<PAGE>
 
            (ii) sell to the Offeror the interest of the Offeree in the assets
of the Partnership for cash at a purchase price equal to the amount which would
have been payable to the Offeree had the assets of the Partnership then been
sold for cash equal in an amount to the Purchase Price and such cash proceeds
had been distributed to the Partners in accordance with Article 12.02.

       The amount determined under Article 8.01(b)(i) hereof or Article
8.01(b)(ii) hereof shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Interest Purchase
Price."  The Offeree shall give written notice of its election to purchase or
sell within sixty (60) days after the determination of the Purchase Price.
Failure of an Offeree to give the Offeror notice that such Offeree has elected
under Article 8.01(b)(i) shall be conclusively deemed to be an election under
Article 8.01(b)(ii) hereof.

        (c) If the Offeree elects to proceed under Article 8.01(b)(i) hereof,
the Offeree shall purchase the assets of the Partnership as provided in this
Article.

        (d) If the Offeree elects to proceed under Article 8.01(b)(ii) hereof,
the Offeror shall purchase the assets of the Partnership as provided in this
Article.

        (e) If, following an election by a Partner to purchase under Article
8.01(b)(i) hereof, such Partner fails to consummate the purchase in accordance
with Article 8.02 hereof, such Partner shall be deemed to be a Defaulting
Partner (as defined in Article 9.02 hereof). The other Partner (Non-Defaulting
Partner, as defined in Article 9.02 hereof), in addition to all other rights and
remedies available at law or in equity against such Defaulting Partner, shall
have the right exercisable by written notice to such Defaulting Partner at any
time within ninety (90) days after the last day such Defaulting Partner could
consummate such purchase in accordance with this Article, to purchase the assets
of the Partnership as if such Non-Defaulting Partner had received written notice
of an election by such Defaulting Partner under Article 8.01(b)(ii) hereof on
the date such Non-Defaulting Partner gives such notice.

  8.02  Closing.
        ------- 

        (a) The closing of any sale of the assets of the Partnership pursuant to
this Article 8 (the "Closing") shall be held at a mutually acceptable place and
on a mutually acceptable date not more than ninety (90) days after receipt by
the Offeror of the written notice of election, or the expiration of the time of
the Offeree to so elect, as provided in Article 8.02(b) hereof.

        (b) At the Closing, a grant deed from the Partnership to the purchasing
Partner of the Project, together with such other instruments and documents as
may be necessary or desirable to effectuate the sale and transfer of all of the
assets of the Partnership to the purchasing Partner, shall be deposited in
escrow under an escrow agreement and with an escrow agent which have been
approved by  the Partners, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
The instruments and documents to be deposited in escrow at the Closing shall be
legally sufficient to convey all of the assets of the Partnership together with
the good will of the Partnership (including, without limitation, its name,
records and files) to the purchasing Partner upon completion of dissolution
pursuant to Article 12.02 hereof, free and clear of all loans, mortgages, deeds
of trust, liens and encumbrances, except the mortgages, deeds of trust, liens
and encumbrances listed in the Offer.  The Interest Purchase Price and all other
sums due at the time of Closing shall be deposited into escrow in the form of a
cashier's or certified check payable to the selling Partner, drawn on a bank
reasonably acceptable to the selling Partner.  At the Closing, any real estate
closing adjustments which are usual and customary in the locality of the Project
shall be made between the purchasing Partner and the Partnership as of the date
of the Closing.  At the Closing, the Interest Purchase Price shall be increased
by the amount of any Additional Contributions made by the selling Partner after
the date of the Offer and prior to the Closing pursuant to Article 4.03, and the
Interest Purchase Price shall be decreased by the amount of any cash
distributions of Extraordinary Cash Flow received by the selling Partner after
the date of the Offer and prior to the Closing pursuant to Article 6.02.

                                       24
<PAGE>
 
        (c) In the event there are any transfer taxes payable as an incident to
the conveyances at the Closing, such taxes shall be expenses of the Partnership.

  8.03  Release from Liabilities.
        ------------------------ 

        (a) At the Closing, the purchasing Partner shall not be obligated to
obtain the release of the selling Partner and all partners and shareholders of
such Partner, if any, from the third party liabilities of the Partnership and
from all recourse guarantees or liabilities of the Partnership.

        (b) If, at the time of the Closing, the Project or other property owned
by the Partnership or any of the selling Partner's ownership interests in the
Partnership is subject to a mortgage, deed of trust, lien or encumbrance, other
than as listed in the Offer, the purchasing Partner, subject to Article 8.03(c)
hereof, shall either discharge or take subject to such mortgage, deed of trust,
lien or encumbrance and make an appropriate reduction in the amount of the
Purchase Price and the Interest Purchase Price to reflect the amount of money as
would be required to discharge the same (including without limitation any
prepayment penalty). If, at the time of the Closing, there are any encumbrances
affecting the Project or the selling Partner's interest which have been created
or suffered by the selling Partner in contravention of the terms and other
rights at law or in equity against the selling Partner, the right to treat the
selling Partner as a Defaulting Partner (as defined in Article 9.02 hereof).

        (c) If the Project is damaged by fire or other casualty, or if any party
possessing the right of eminent domain shall give notice of an intention to take
or acquire a substantial part of the Land or any part of the Improvements, and
such damage occurs or such notice is given between the date of the Offer and the
Closing, the following shall apply:

            (i) if the Project is damaged by an insured casualty (or an
  uninsured casualty not resulting in significant damage, which for the purposes
  of this Article 8.03(c)(i) only shall mean damage the cost of which to repair
  would not exceed Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000), or if the taking or
  acquisition shall neither involve a substantial portion of the Project nor
  result in a substantial reduction in the income producing capacity of the
  Project, then the purchasing Partner shall be required to complete the
  transaction and, at its election, either (A) accept an assignment of the
  insurance or condemnation proceeds, or (B) make an appropriate reduction in
  the Purchase Price or the Interest Purchase Price to reflect the amount of the
  uninsured casualty; and

            (ii) if the Project is damaged by an uninsured casualty resulting in
  significant damage or if the taking or acquisition shall result in a
  substantial reduction in the income-producing capacity of the Project, then
  the purchasing Partner shall have the option to either, (A) proceed with the
  purchase, or (B) cancel the purchase.  If the purchasing Partner elects to
  proceed with the purchase, the selling Partner shall assign to the purchasing
  Partner its interest in any proceeds,  settlements and awards resulting from
  such damage, taking or acquisition.

        (d) In the event the purchase is cancelled by the purchasing Partner
pursuant to Article 8.03(c)(ii)(B) or otherwise, the terms of this Agreement
shall remain in effect and continue to be binding on the Partners; provided,
however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to limit any remedy which either
Partner may otherwise have on account of any breach by the other Partner of any
obligation to purchase or sell as provided in this Agreement.

  8.04  Determination of the Purchase Price.  Concurrent with any Offer, the
        -----------------------------------                                 
Offeror shall designate a disinterested member of the American Institute of Real
Estate Appraisers ("MAI Appraiser") to serve on the Appraisal Panel provided for
below.  The Offeree shall have seven (7) days in which to designate a
disinterested MAI Appraiser to serve on the Appraisal Panel by serving notice of
such designation on the Offeror.  In the event that the Offeree shall fail to
designate an MAI Appraiser within such seven (7) day period, the appraiser
selected by the Offeror shall be the sole appraiser to determine the value of
the Project.  Upon the designation, if any, of 

                                       25
<PAGE>
 
an MAI Appraiser by the Offeree, the MAI Appraiser designated by the Offeror and
the MAI Appraiser designated by the Offeree shall then have seven (7) days in
which to designate a third MAI Appraiser. If the two (2) MAI Appraisers are
unable to agree on a third MAI Appraiser, any Partner may request the president
of the executive committee of the San Francisco Chapter of the American
Institute of Real Estate Appraisers to appoint such third MAI Appraiser, the
three (3) MAI Appraisers (the "Appraisal Panel") shall each appraise the Project
taking into account appropriate indicators of the value of the Project and shall
report their findings to the Partners in writing. The Project shall be appraised
on the basis that it is unencumbered with any mortgage, deed of trust or other
monetary lien. If the Appraisal Panel fails to deliver their reports within
sixty (60) days after the appointment of the third MAI Appraiser, any Partner
may dismiss the three (3) MAI Appraisers and reinitiate the appraisal procedure
pursuant to this Article 8.04 by sending a new notice as provided above. The
"Appraised Value" of the Project shall be equal to the mean of the two (2)
closest appraised values reported by the Appraisal Panel. If only two of the
three appraisers have submitted reports within the sixty (60) day period
provided for above, the Appraised Value of the Projects shall be the mean of the
two values so reported. Each Partner shall pay the fees and expenses of the MAI
Appraiser appointed by such Partner, or in whose stead, as above provided, such
MAI Appraiser was appointed, and the fees and expenses of the third MAI
Appraiser, and all other expenses, if any, shall be borne equally by the
Partners.

  8.05  Right to Sell the Project.
        ------------------------- 

        (a) At any time after the Fifth (5th) year from and after the date
hereof, MIP and RS-MIP jointly shall have the right to offer the Project for
sale without the consent of the Trust and/or Chapman if they have complied with
the following:

            (i) MIP and RS-MIP shall deliver to the other Partners (the "Non-
Selling Partners") a notice (the "Notice") of their intention to sell, which
Notice shall set forth the terms and conditions upon which MIP and RS-MIP
desires to sell the Project; and

            (ii) the Non-Selling Partners shall have the right either, (A) to
allow MIP and RS-MIP to sell the Project as specified in the Notice, or (B) to
purchase the Project at the price contained in the Notice and on the other terms
and conditions set forth therein.

        (b) The Non-Selling Partners shall have a period of ninety (90) days
after receipt of the Offer to notify MIP and RS-MIP whether the Non-Selling
Partners shall waive their right to purchase or whether such Partners shall
purchase the Project as specified in the Offer. If the Non-Selling Partners fail
to respond within such ninety (90) day period, they shall be deemed to have
elected and agreed not to purchase the Project. If the Non-Selling Partners,
having elected to purchase, fail to consummate such purchase, they shall be
deemed Defaulting Partners under this Agreement. The closing in respect to the
purchase of the Project by the Non-Selling Partners shall be held within one
hundred twenty (120) days after service of the Offer in the same manner as set
forth in Articles 8.02 and 8.03 above.

        (c) If the Non-Selling Partners do not elect to purchase the Project
within the ninety (90) day period provided above, MIP and RS-MIP may effect the
disposition of the Project to a third party purchaser for a purchase price and
upon terms and conditions no less favorable than those set forth in the Notice.

        (d) In the event MIP and RS-MIP desire to consummate a sale of the
Project on terms more favorable to the prospective purchaser than the terms
described in the Notice, MIP and RS-MIP shall offer the Project to the Non-
Selling Partners on such revised terms and the Non-Selling Partner shall have
seven (7) days after the receipt of the revised notice of offer to either accept
or reject the offer. The procedure to be followed after the acceptance or
rejection of such offer shall be the same procedure as after the acceptance or
rejection of the original offer; provided, however, any acceptance and the
subsequent closing thereafter must be on the same terms and conditions
(including the closing date) as set forth in such revised offer; provided,
further, however,

                                       26

that in no event shall the Non-Selling Partners be obligated to close sooner
than thirty (30) days from and after the date such revised notice is received by
the Non-Selling Partner.

        (e) The Non-Selling Partners shall cooperate fully with the sale of the
Project to a third party under this Article 8.05, including without limitation,
the execution, of any purchase and sale agreement, grant deed, escrow
instructions and all other documents and instructions customarily executed by a
Seller in a real estate sales transaction and in accordance with Article 8.02(b)
above.

  8.06  Tax Reporting.  A sale of the assets of the Partnership pursuant to this
        -------------                                                           
Article 8 from one Partner to another Partner(s) shall be treated as a sale by
the Partnership to the purchasing Partner(s) of an undivided interest in the
assets of the Partnership to the extent of the ratio that the Interest Purchase
Price bears to the aggregate amount which would have been payable to the
Partners had the assets of the Partnership been sold for cash equal in an amount
to the Purchase Price and such cash proceeds had been distributed in accordance
with Article 12.02 and as a distribution of capital to the purchasing Partner(s)
of the remaining undivided interest in such assets.  Notwithstanding the
provisions of Article 5, any Net Profits or Net Losses on such sale shall be
specially allocated to the selling Partner.

  8.07  Reformation as a Redemption. In the event of a sale of the assets of the
Partnership pursuant to this Article 8 from one Partner(s) to another Partner,
the purchasing Partner shall have the option to reform the foregoing purchase
and sale transaction as a redemption of the selling Partner's interest in the
Partnership by the Partnership, for the purpose of causing the Partnership not
to terminate for tax purposes as set forth in Section 708(b)(1)(B) of the Code;
provided, however, that the economic substance of the transaction for the
selling Partner is not altered thereby. In connection with any such redemption,
the purchasing Partner shall be entitled to appoint a substitute partner to the
partnership for the purpose of causing the partnership to have a minimum of two
(2) partners at all times.

  8.08  Cooperation with Tax Deferred Exchange.  In the event of a sale of the
        --------------------------------------                                
Project pursuant to this Article 8, from either one Partner to another
Partner(s), or from the Partnership to a third party, MIP and RS-MIP will
cooperate with the Trust and Chapman so that such sale may be accomplished as an
exchange qualifying for nonrecognition of gain under Internal Revenue Code
Section 1031, and the applicable provisions of the California Revenue and
Taxation Code.  MIP and RS-MIP shall incur no additional liabilities, expenses
or costs in any such sale transaction as a result of or connected with the
exchange, and the Trust and Chapman acknowledge and agree that qualifying any
such sale transaction for nonrecognition of gain under applicable law shall not
be a condition to closing any such transaction.

        (c) If a decree or order is rendered by a court having jurisdiction (i)

(which shall not include General Partner's inability for any reason to meet
their financial commitments hereunder).

       (f) If a Partner fails to perform fully its obligations and duties or has
violated any of its agreements or covenants under this Agreement, exclusive of
the Events of Default described in Subparagraphs (a) through (e) of this Article
9, and within thirty (30) days after receiving notice of such default from the
other Partner or Partners, such Defaulting Partner fails to cure or correct such
failure or violation; provided, if any such failure to perform or violation of
any agreement or covenant is reasonably susceptible to being cured and such cure
cannot reasonably be completed within such thirty (30) day period, such failure
to perform or violation of such covenant or agreement shall not be deemed to be
an Event of Default hereunder if such Partner commences to cure such matter
within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such
curing to completion prior to the time necessary to complete such cure.

Harvey E. Chapman, Jr., or withdrawal of any Partner from the Partnership, or
the admission of additional partners except as otherwise expressly set forth
herein.

  In the event that any Partner is itself a partnership, the occurrence of any
event described in subsections (a) through (i) with respect to any of its
general partners shall also be considered an Event of Default.

  9.02  Remedies Upon Event of Default.
        ------------------------------ 

        (a) In the event of the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect
to a Partner ("Defaulting Partner"), any other Partner (the "Non-Defaulting
Partner(s)") shall have the right for a period of ninety (90) days from the date
such Partner first became aware of such Event of Default to dissolve the
Partnership and to exercise any remedies available to such Partner at law or
equity. The Non-Defaulting Partner shall furnish written notice to the
Partnership if it elects to so dissolve the Partnership. The measure of damages
in event of dissolution shall be such amount as may be required after
liquidation and distribution of all of the Partnership's

                                       28
<PAGE>
 
assets to satisfy the claims of third party creditors of the Partnership (other
than MIP as Lender) arising out of agreements between the Partnership and such
third party creditors entered into prior to the date of dissolution, provided
that the foregoing shall not restrict or otherwise limit the rights or remedies
of a Non-Defaulting Partner against a Defaulting Partners at law or in equity,
or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, for or in respect of conduct
constituting a fraud on the Partnership or on any other Partner, or for or in
respect of any breach of any fiduciary obligation. In no event shall MIP or RS-
MIP be entitled to cause a dissolution of the Partnership as a result of an
Event of Default of the other and likewise neither the Trust nor Chapman shall
be entitled to cause a dissolution of the Partnership as a result of an Event of
Default of the other.
 
        (b) In the event the General Partner becomes a Defaulting Partner, the
Trust and Chapman shall have the power to remove the General Partner as the
general partner of the Partnership unless the General Partner cures its default
to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trust and Chapman prior to such removal.
The Trust and Chapman shall also have the power to appoint a new general partner
of the Partnership (a "Substitute General Partner") by either admitting a new
general partner to the Partnership or converting all or any portion of their
Partnership Interest to that of a general partner. Any such removal shall have
no effect on the General Partner's Percentage Ownership Interest in Net Profits,
Net Losses or Cash Flow. Subject to the provisions of subsection (c) below, from
and after such removal, the removed general partner shall have rights of
approval over only such matters as to which the Trust and Chapman, in their
capacities as limited partners, have rights of approval hereunder. In the event
the General Partner is removed as general partner of the partnership but within
ninety (90) days following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the General
Partner cures its default to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trust and
Chapman then the General Partner shall be immediately thereafter reinstated as
the general partner of the Partnership.

        (c) From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a Defaulting
Partner or its successor in interest shall not be entitled to participate in
Partnership decisions requiring the consent or approval of such Partner and such
decisions shall be made solely by the Non-Defaulting Partner; provided, however,
that if the Defaulting Partner cures its default within ninety (90) days
following the occurrence of the Event of Default and the Non-Defaulting Partner
has not exercised its right to dissolve the partnership, such Defaulting Partner
shall cease to be a Defaulting Partner and shall thereafter be restored to its
original position within the Partnership.

        (d) If the Trust and/or Chapman are the Defaulting Partners without
limiting the other remedies described in Article 9.02 hereof, the Non-Defaulting
Partners shall be authorized to terminate the Management Agreement referred to
in Article 3.08(c) hereof and enter into management agreements with such a
company or companies as the Non-Defaulting Partner may determine from time to
time in its sole but reasonable discretion, for the supervision, maintenance,
leasing, management, sale, subdivision or financing of the Project.

        (e) If RS-MIP is the Defaulting Partner and the Trust and Chapman become
or appoint a Substitute General Partner pursuant to Article 9.02(b), without
limiting the generality of the other remedies described in Article 9.02 hereof,
the Non-Defaulting partners shall be authorized to bind the Partnership and
carry out the purposes for which it was created.
 
        (f) After (but in no event prior to) the lapse of the ninety (90) day
cure period provided in Article 9.02(c) above, the Non-Defaulting Partners shall
also be authorized:

            (i) to sell, leases exchange or otherwise transfer or dispose of all
or substantially all of the Partnership's assets in good faith and for such
value and other terms and conditions as the Non-Defaulting Partners reasonably
considers to be appropriate; and

            (ii) to mortgage or encumber the Partnership's property for
Partnership purposes and in good faith.

for any period of time during the term of this Partnership, other than any
dispute regarding any portion thereof concerning the cost of capital
improvements, shall be resolved and settled by arbitration to be held in Los
Angeles, California, in accordance the Rules of the American Arbitration
Association. Each Partner shall select an arbitrator with a minimum of five (5)
years experience in real estate management within seven (7) days of a notice
given by any Partner that such Partner is requesting that a dispute be resolved
and settled by arbitration. The arbitrators so selected shall together select a
third arbitrator with a minimum of five (5) years experience in real estate
management to complete the panel. The third arbitrator shall unilaterally
resolve the dispute and the decision of such arbitrator shall control. In the
event the arbitrators selected by the Partners are not able to agree upon a
third panel member within thirty (30) days after any Partner has given the other
Partner written notice of its desire to arbitrate any matter, any Partner may
request the president or executive committee of the American Arbitration
Association to appoint such third arbitrator. If the third arbitrator fails to
deliver the final decision within sixty (60) days after the appointment of the

make his decision and award according to the terms and provisions of this
Agreement and the applicable law, and such award shall set forth a statement of
decision (explaining the factual and legal basis for such award as to each of
the principal controverted issues involved) of the arbitrator in the same manner
as is required in a trial before a judge of a Superior Court of the State of
California. In such proceeding, discovery procedures may be conducted as
permitted by the statutes of California, including, without limitation,
(S)1283.05 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The prevailing party shall be
entitled to recover all reasonable costs of such proceeding, including, without
limitation, attorneys fees incurred therein. Judgment upon the award may be
entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

  14.13  Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in no
         --------                                                              
event shall the amount of any interest which is payable pursuant to this
Agreement exceed the highest lawful rate permissible under applicable usury
laws. If fulfillment of any provision hereof shall be deemed by a court of
competent and final jurisdiction to violate any applicable usury restrictions,
then ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of
such validity, and any amount received in excess of such limit shall be applied
to reduce the unpaid principal balance upon which such interest is calculated
and not to the payment of interest.

remedies it may have against any other Partner, at law or in equity or by this
