                                                               Exhibit 10.1

                                FIRST AMENDMENT
                                      TO
             FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED REIT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT


     THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED REIT MANAGEMENT
AGREEMENT (this "Amendment") is made and entered into as of the 12th day of
December, 1995, by and between Security Capital Pacific Trust, a Maryland real
estate investment trust (the "Trust"), and Security Capital Pacific
Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the "REIT Manager").

     WHEREAS, the Trust and the REIT Manager are parties to that certain Fourth
Amended and Restated REIT Management Agreement, dated as of June 30, 1995, (the
"Agreement"), pursuant to which the REIT Manager provides strategic planning,
day-to-day management, accounting, reporting, financing and other services to
the Trust, subject to the supervision of the Board of Trustees of the Trust; and

     WHEREAS, the Trust and the REIT Manager desire to amend the Agreement;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged the Trust and the REIT Manager agree that the Agreement is hereby
amended as follows:

     A.   Section 1.1(k) is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

          "(k)  "Funds Available from Operations" for any period means the
     dollar amount equal to the sum of (i) net earnings of the Trust for such
     period excluding interest income and/or dividends received from PTR
     Development Services Incorporated, determined in accordance with generally
     accepted accounting principles, plus (ii) interest actually paid on the
     Trust's senior unsecured long term debt instruments, plus (iii) non-cash
     items deducted in calculating net earnings for such period (including but
     not limited to depreciation) which are generally added to net earnings in
     determining funds from operations for distribution to shareholders pursuant
     to prevailing practice among publicly-held real estate investments trusts,
     minus (iv) regularly scheduled principal payments (excluding prepayments or
     balloon payments) on mortgage indebtedness which has a commercially
     reasonable amortization schedule, minus (v) an assumed amount of payments
     of principal and interest which would have been paid by the Trust during
     such periods under senior unsecured long term debt instruments of the
     Trust, if payments were equal to payments on a 20-year fully amortizing
     mortgage of equal principal amount and effective interest rate with a
     payment schedule requiring equal annual payments of combined principal and
     interest (but not costs of issuance), minus (vi) distributions actually
     paid with respect to any non-convertible preferred shares of beneficial
     interest of the Trust. For calculations under clause (v) of the preceding
     sentence, all tranches of long term debt issued simultaneously shall be
     viewed collectively and shall be treated as one mortgage financing with an
     interest rate equal to the Trust's weighted average effective interest rate
     for such tranches after giving effect to any interest rate protection or
     similar agreements. For example, the attached Exhibit A shows the assumed
     effective interest rate and monthly payment schedules on the $200 million
     of senior notes issued by the Trust in February 1994, which will be
     deducted in calculating Funds Available from Operations. Funds Available
     from Operations will not be increased or decreased by virtue of any of the
     following: realized gains or losses, capital expenditures or principal
     payments, except for principal payments under the Trust's long term debt
     instruments as contemplated by clauses (iv) and (v) of the foregoing
     sentence."

     B.   Section 3.4(a) is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

          "(a)  travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by directors,
     officers and employees of the REIT Manager in connection with (i) seeking
     financing (including debt and equity) for the Trust, (ii) evaluating,
     investigating, negotiating or closing the acquisition, financing,
     refinancing or disposition of a Trust Property after the Board has approved
     the market in which such property is located for investment or (iii)
     attending Board, Board committee or shareholder meetings of the Trust;"





                                      -2-

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trust and the REIT Manager have executed this
Amendment as of the day and year first above written.
