partner, and Jeffrey H. Fisher and Frederic Shaw, as limited
partners.
B. The Original Agreement was
amended and restated on September 30, 1994 (the “First

First Amended Agreement was amended on March 22,1995 (the
“First Amendment to the First Amended Agreement”) to
(i) admit Innkeepers Financial Corporation, a Virginia corporation
(in its capacity as the general partner of the Partnership, the
“General Partner”), as the general partner and a
limited partner of the Partnership, (ii) provide for the withdrawal
of the Company as the general partner and a limited partner of the
Partnership, and (iii) amend and add provisions required to

further amended and restated on November 1, 1996 (the
“Seconded Amended and Restated Agreement”). The General
Partner, for itself and on behalf of the limited partners of the
Partnership, desires to further amend the Second Amended Agreement
