To the Holders of Units of Limited Partnership Interests
of Westin Hotels Limited Partnership
THE INTRODUCTION SECTION OF THE OFFER TO PURCHASE IS AMENDED TO READ AS
FOLLOWS:
INTRODUCTION
Kalmia Investors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the
"Purchaser" or "Kalmia"), hereby offers to purchase up to 4,900 units of limited
partnership interests including any rights attributable to claims, damages,
recoveries, including recoveries from any class action lawsuits, and causes of
action accruing to the ownership of such units of limited partnership interests
("Units") of Westin Hotels Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership
(the "Partnership"), at a purchase price of $1,000 net per Unit, without
interest, which includes the amount of any cash distributions declared or paid,
including any cash return of capital, if any, (collectively hereinafter referred
to as "Distributions") made or declared with respect to the Units after March
16, 1999 and prior to the Expiration Date (as hereinafter defined) (the
"Purchase Price"), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in
this Offer to Purchase and in the related Agreement of Sale (which together
constitute the "Offer"). In addition to the Purchase Price of $1,000, if you
were a Unit Holder of record, such Unit Holder will also receive the $23.75
Distribution made by the Partnership on March 15, 1999. The 4,900 Units sought
to be purchased pursuant to the Offer represent, to the best knowledge of the
Purchaser, approximately 3.6% of the Units outstanding as of the date of the
Offer.
We encourage you to consider the following factors:
- - Holders of Units ("Unit Holders") who tender their Units will be
giving up the opportunity to participate in any future potential
benefits represented by ownership of Units, including, for example,
the right to participate in any future distribution of cash or
property, whether from operations, the proceeds of a sale of the
Partnership's assets or in connection with any future liquidation of
the Partnership. However, there is no guarantee of future results of
the Partnership and investment in the Partnership.
- - Although the Purchaser cannot predict the future value of the
Partnership's assets on a per Unit basis, the Purchase Price could
differ significantly from the net proceeds that would be recognized on
a per Unit basis from the sale of the Partnership's assets or that may
be realized upon a future liquidation of the Partnership.
- - The tax consequences of the Offer to a particular Unit Holder may be
different from those of other Unit Holders and we urge you to consult
your own tax advisors in connection with the Offer.
- - According to the Partnership's Annual Report of Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1998 filed with the Commission on March 4,
1999 (the "1998 10-K"), as of March 1, 1999, the most recent reported
trading activity in the Units occurred from January 1, 1999 to January
19, 1999 (when sales were suspended). The average per Unit sales price
reported in the limited and sporadic secondary market during that time
period was approximately $961 with prices ranging from $500 to $1,119.
Such secondary market selling prices, however, do not take into
account commissions charged by secondary market makers effectuating
such sales which the Purchaser believes, based on a typical ten Unit
sales transaction, range from 5% to 8% of the sales proceeds (which
would result in a reduction of the net proceeds to the seller of
approximately $481 to approximately $767).
- - The Purchaser is not using an independent Depository to process the
Offer, but is using its Manager, Arlen Capital, LLC ("Arlen") as such.
There is, therefore, a conflict of interest between Arlen's
1
<PAGE>
duties as Depository and Arlen's duties as the Manager of the
Purchaser. Arlen has committed that it will, if faced with any
such conflict, act in the best interests of the selling Unit
Holders. Arlen will also have possession of the selling Unit
Holders Agreements of Sale, which it has agreed to hold for the
benefit of the selling Unit Holders until the sale of Units
represented by such Agreements of Sale has been completed.
- - The Purchaser is making the Offer with a view towards making a profit.
Accordingly, there may be a conflict between the desire of the
Purchaser to acquire the Units at a low price and the desire of the
Unit Holders to sell the Units at a high price. No independent person
has been retained to evaluate or render any opinion with respect to
the fairness of the $1,000 Purchase Price and no representation is
made as to such fairness. Other measures of value may be relevant to
a Unit Holder and all Unit Holders are urged to carefully consider all
of the information contained in the Offer to Purchase and Agreement of
Sale and to consult with their own advisors (tax, financial or
otherwise) in evaluating the terms of the Offer before deciding
whether to tender their Units.
Unit Holders may no longer wish to continue with their investment in the
Partnership and might consider accepting the Offer for one or more of the
following reasons:
- - There is no public market for the Units and it is not anticipated that
a public market will develop. (See the 1998 10-K). Unit Holders who
desire resale liquidity may wish to consider the Offer. The Offer
affords a significant number of Unit Holders with an opportunity to
dispose of their Units for cash, which otherwise might not be
available to them. The Purchase Price is not intended to represent
either the fair market value of a Unit or the Partnership's assets on
a per Unit basis. Although there are some limited resale mechanisms
available to the Unit Holders wishing to sell their Units, there is no
formal or organized trading market for the Units.
- - The Offer may be attractive to certain Unit Holders who wish in the
future to avoid the continued additional expense, delay and
complication in filing income tax returns which result from the
ownership of the Units.
- - The Offer provides Unit Holders with the opportunity to liquidate
their Units and to reinvest the proceeds in other investments should
they desire to do so.
- - The Offer will provide Unit Holders with an immediate opportunity to
liquidate their investment in the Partnership without the usual
transaction costs associated with secondary market sales.
If you wish to sell some or all of your Units now, please read carefully
the enclosed Offer to Purchase and the Agreement of Sale. All you need to do is
complete the Agreement of Sale in accordance with the instructions provided
therein, sign where indicated, have your signature Medallion Guaranteed and
return it to the Purchaser, in the pre-addressed return envelope. If you desire
to accept this Offer, please carefully follow the instructions on the Agreement
of Sale. Errors will delay and possibly prevent acceptance of your tender of
the Units.
If, prior to the Expiration Date, the Purchaser increases the consideration
offered to Unit Holders pursuant to the Offer, such increased consideration will
be paid with respect to all Units that are purchased pursuant to the Offer,
whether or not such Units were tendered prior to such increase in consideration.
The Offer is being made by the Purchaser as a speculative investment based
upon the belief that the Units represent an attractive investment at the price
offered based upon, in part, the expected liquidation of the Partnership's
assets. The purpose of the Offer is to allow the Purchaser to benefit from any
one
2
<PAGE>
combination of the following: (i) any cash distributions from Partnership
operations in the ordinary course of business; (ii) distributions, if any, of
net proceeds from the liquidation of any properties after the Partnership has
satisfied its liabilities; (iii) any cash from any redemption of the Units by
the Partnership; and (iv) sale of the Units.
The Offer is not conditioned upon the valid tender of any minimum number
of the Units. If more than 4,900 Units, are validly tendered and not
withdrawn, the Purchaser will accept up to 4,900 of the tendered Units for
purchase on a pro rata basis, subject to the terms and conditions herein. See
"Tender Offer--Section 13. Certain Conditions of the Offer." The Purchaser
expressly reserves the right to terminate the Offer at anytime and to waive
any or all of the conditions of the Offer, although the Purchaser does not
presently intend to waive any such conditions.
The Partnership is subject to the information and reporting requirements
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), and in
accordance therewith is required to file reports and other information with
the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") relating to its
business, financial condition and other matters. Such reports and other
information are available on the Commission's Electronic Data Gathering and
Retrieval System (EDGAR), at its internet website at www.sec.gov.com and may
be inspected at the public reference facilities maintained by the Commission
at room 1024, Judiciary Plaza, 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C.
20549, and is available for inspection and copying at the regional offices of
the Commission located in Northwestern Atrium Center, 500 West Madison
Street, Suite 1400, Chicago, Illinois 60661 and at 7 World Trade Center, 13th
Floor, New York, New York 10048. Copies of such material can also be obtained
from the Public Reference Room of the Commission in Washington, D.C. at
prescribed rates.
The Purchaser has filed with the Commission a Tender Offer Statement on
Schedule 14D-1 (including exhibits) pursuant to Rule 14d-3 of the General
Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act, which provides certain
additional information with respect to the Offer. Such Statements and any
amendments thereto, including exhibits, may be inspected and copies may be
obtained from the Commission in the manner specified above.
According to the 1998 10-K, there were 135,600 Units issued and
outstanding at December 31, 1998, held by approximately 7,940 Unit Holders.
The Purchaser currently owns 8,475 Units which is approximately 6.25% of the
outstanding Units.
Information contained in this Offer to Purchase which relates to, or
represents statements made by the Partnership or the General Partner, has
been derived from information provided in reports and other information filed
with the Commission by the Partnership and General Partner.
Unit Holders are urged to read this Offer to Purchase and the accompanying
Agreement of Sale carefully before deciding whether to tender their Units.

SECTION 6 OF THE OFFER TO PURCHASE IS AMENDED TO READ AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 6. CERTAIN TAX CONSEQUENCES.
The following is a summary of certain federal income tax consequences of
a sale of Units pursuant to the Offer assuming that the Partnership is a
partnership for federal income tax purposes and that it is not a "publicly
traded partnership" as defined in Section 7704 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). This summary is based on the Code,
applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder, administrative rulings, practice
and procedures and judicial authorities as of the date of the Offer. All of
the foregoing are subject to change, and any such change could affect the
continuing accuracy of this summary. This summary does not address all
aspects of federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular Unit
Holder in light of such Unit Holder's specific circumstances, or that may be
relevant to Unit Holders subject to special treatment under the federal
income tax laws (for example, foreign persons, dealers in securities, banks,
insurance companies and tax-exempt entities), nor does it address any aspect
of state, local, foreign or other tax laws. Sales of Units pursuant to the
Offer will be taxable transactions for federal income tax purposes, and may
also be taxable transactions under applicable state, local, foreign and other
tax laws. EACH UNIT HOLDER SHOULD CONSULT HIS OR HER TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE
PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH UNIT HOLDER OF SELLING UNITS PURSUANT TO
THE OFFER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL TAX
CONSEQUENCES.
CONSEQUENCES TO TENDERING UNIT HOLDER. A Unit Holder will recognize
gain or loss on a sale of Units pursuant to the Offer equal to the
difference between (i) the Unit Holder's "amount realized" on the
5
<PAGE>
sale and (ii) the Unit Holder's adjusted tax basis in the Units sold. The
"amount realized" with respect to a Unit sold pursuant to the Offer will be a
sum equal to the amount of cash received by the Unit Holder for the Unit plus
the amount of Partnership liabilities allocable to the Unit (as determined
under Code Section 752). The amount of a Unit Holder's adjusted tax basis in
Units sold pursuant to the Offer will vary depending upon the Unit Holder's
particular circumstances and will be affected by allocations of Partnership
taxable income or loss to a Unit Holder with respect to such Us, and
distributions to a Unit Holder. In this regard, tendering Unit Holders will
be allocated a pro rata share of the Partnership's taxable income or loss
with respect to Units sold pursuant to the Offer through the last day of the
month preceding the effective date of the sale.
Subject to Code Section 751 (discussed below), the gain or loss
recognized by a Unit Holder on a sale of a Unit pursuant to the Offer
generally will be treated as a capital gain or loss if the Unit was held by
the Unit Holder as a capital asset. Changes to the federal income tax laws
in recent years modified applicable capital gain rates and holding periods.
Gain with respect to Units held for more than one year will be taxed at
long-term capital gain rates not exceeding 20 percent. Gain with respect to
Units held one year or less will be taxed at ordinary income rates, up to a
maximum rate of 39.6 percent. To the extent of depreciation recapture of
previously deducted straight-line depreciation with respect to real property,
a maximum rate of 25 percent is imposed (assuming eligibility for long-term
capital gain treatment). A portion of the gain realized by a Unit Holder
with respect to the disposition of the Units may be subject to this maximum
25 percent rate to the extent that the gain is attributable to depreciation
recapture inherent in the properties of the Partnership.
Capital losses are deductible only to the extent of capital gains,
except that non-corporate taxpayers may deduct up to $3,000 of capital losses
in excess of the amount of their capital gains against ordinary income.
Excess capital losses generally can be carried forward to succeeding years (a
corporation's carry forward period is five years and non-corporate taxpayer
can carry forward such capital losses indefinitely). In addition,
corporations (but not non-corporate taxpayers) are allowed to carry back
excess capital losses to the three preceding taxable years.
A portion of Unit Holder's gain or loss on a sale of a Unit pursuant to
the Offer may be treated as ordinary income or loss. Such portion will be
determined by allocating a Unit Holder's amount realized for a Unit between
amounts received in exchange for all or a part of the Unit Holder's interest
in the Partnership attributable to "Section 751 items" and non-Section 751
items. Section 751 items include "inventory items" and "unrealized
receivables" (including depreciation recapture) as defined in Code Section
751. The difference between the portion of the Unit Holders amount realized
that is allocable to Section 751 items and the portion of the Unit Holder's
adjusted tax basis in the Units sold that is so allocable will be treated as
ordinary income or loss. The difference between the Unit Holder's remaining
amount realized and adjusted tax basis will be treated as capital gain or
loss assuming the Units were held by the Unit Holder as a capital asset.
Under Code Section 469, a non-corporate taxpayer or personal service
corporation can deduct passive activity losses in any taxable year only to
the extent of such person's passive activity income for such year. Closely
held corporations may offset passive activity losses against passive activity
income and active income, but may not offset such losses against portfolio
income. If a Unit Holder is subject to these restrictions and has unused
passive losses from prior years, such losses will generally become available
upon a sale of Units, provided the Unit Holders sells all of his or her
Units. If a Unit Holder does not sell all of his or her Units, the
deductibility of such losses would continue to be subject to the passive
activity loss limitation until the Unit Holder sell his or her remaining
Units.
6
<PAGE>
Gain realized by a foreign Unit Holder on a sale of a Unit pursuant to
the Offer will be subject to federal income tax. Under Code Section 1445 of
the Code, the transferee of a partnership interest held by a foreign person
is generally required to deduct and withhold a tax equal to 10% of the amount
realized on the disposition. The Purchaser will withhold 10% of the amount
realized by a tendering Unit Holder form the Purchase Price payable to such
Unit Holder unless the Unit Holder properly completes and signs the Agreement
of Sale certifying the accuracy of the Unit Holder's TIN and address, and
that such Unit Holder is not a foreign person. Amounts withheld are
creditable against a foreign Unit Holder's federal income tax liability. If
amounts withheld are in excess of such liability, a refund can be obtained.
A Unit Holder who tenders Units must file an information statement with
his or her federal income tax return for the year of the sale which provides
the information specified in Treasury Regulation Section 1.751-1(a)(3). The
selling Unit Holder must also notify the Partnership of the date of the
transfer and the names, addresses and tax identification numbers of the
transferors and transferees within 30 days of the date of the transfer (or,
if earlier, January 15 of the following calendar year).
CONSEQUENCES TO A NON-TENDERING UNIT HOLDER. The Purchaser anticipates
that a Unit Holder who does not tender his or her Units will not realize any
material federal income tax consequences as a result of the decision not to
tender.

(a) the acceptance by the Purchaser of Units tendered and not withdrawn

Partnership to be taxed as a "publicly traded partnership" under the Internal
Revenue Code;

all of the tendered Units, (ii) make such purchase or payment illegal, or
(iii) otherwise adversely affect the Purchaser or the Partnership;
(d) any change shall have occurred or be threatened in the business,

foregoing existing at the time of the commencement of the Offer, a material
acceleration or worsening thereof;
(f) a tender or exchange offer for some or all of the Units is made, or
publicly proposed to be made or amended, by another person;

Agreement of Limited Partnership; or
(h) the failure to occur of any necessary approval or authorization by any
Federal or state authorities necessary to consummation of the Purchaser of all
or any part of the Units to be acquired hereby, which in the reasonable judgment
of the Purchaser in any such case, and regardless of the circumstances
(including any action of the Purchaser) giving rise thereto, makes it
inadvisable to proceed with such purchase or payment.
The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of the Purchaser and its
affiliates and may be asserted by the Purchaser regardless of the circumstances
(including, without limitation, any action or inaction by the Purchaser or any
of its affiliates) giving rise to such condition, or may be waived by the
