Registrant hereby further amends and supplements its Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 23, 2009, as amended and supplemented by its Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 23, 2009, relating to, among other things, the assumption by Michael J. Dunn, Jr. of the additional responsibilities of Chief Executive Officer effective September 27, 2009, to report that, at its meeting held on November 10, 2009, the Compensation Committee of the Registrant’s Board of Supervisors granted to Mr. Dunn, effective on December 1, 2009, an award of restricted units under the Registrant’s 2000 Restricted Unit Plan (the “Plan”) having a market value of $500,000 (the number of restricted units will be calculated by dividing said market value by the average of the closing prices, on the New York Stock Exchange, of one Common Unit of the Partnership for the 20 trading days prior to the effective date of grant). Such restricted units will 100% vest on the last day of the Registrant’s 2012 fiscal year. If Mr. Dunn retires before that date, he will forfeit all of such restricted units. Upon vesting, restricted units are automatically converted into Common Units of the Registrant.

In addition, Mr. Dunn and the Compensation Committee agreed to terminate Mr. Dunn’s existing employment agreement with the Registrant and to replace it, effective September 27, 2009, with an agreement that provides as follows. Mr. Dunn will participate in Registrant’s Executive Change-in-Control Protection Plan at the 78-week participation level. If, on or after the last day of the Registrant’s 2012 fiscal year, Mr. Dunn retires or his employment with Registrant is terminated pursuant to an agreement with the Compensation Committee on a succession plan, then (A) Mr. Dunn will be paid, over a two year period, an amount equal to two times (2X) his then current annual base salary, (B) the Registrant will continue to provide Mr. Dunn and his eligible dependents, until he turns age 65 (he will be 63 on the last day of the Registrant’s 2012 fiscal year), with medical and dental benefits coverage, and (C) Mr. Dunn may purchase his company vehicle. In return, Mr. Dunn has agreed to provide certain transitional consulting services to the Registrant for a period of up to two years following the termination of his employment, and to provide the Registrant with a release of all claims Mr. Dunn may then have against the Registrant.

The foregoing description of the new agreement between Mr. Dunn and the Registrant is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.
