The Company will pay the principal of, interest on, the Redemption Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price for any Global Note to the Depositary by wire transfer of immediately available funds on the relevant payment date in accordance with Applicable Procedures.

(c) Any Defaulted Amounts shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant payment date but shall accrue interest per annum at the rate borne by the Notes, subject to the enforceability thereof under applicable law, from, and including, such relevant payment date, and such Defaulted Amounts together with such interest thereon shall be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (i) or (ii) below:

The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of such special record date and the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor to be sent to each Holder at its address as it appears in the Note Register, not less than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor having been so sent, such Defaulted Amounts shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the Close of Business on such special record date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (ii) of this Section 2.03(c).

(ii) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Amounts in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed or designated for issuance, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange or automated quotation system, if, after written notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

Such certificate by the Trustee (or such an authenticating agent) upon any Note executed by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that the Note so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

The Trustee is hereby initially appointed the “Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Company may appoint one or more co-Note Registrars in accordance with Section 4.02.

No service charge shall be imposed by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, any co-Note Registrar or the Paying Agent for any exchange of Notes for other Notes or registration of transfer of Notes, but the Company may require a Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax required in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of new Notes issued upon such exchange or registration of transfer being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for exchange or registration of transfer.

None of the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar shall be required to exchange under this Section 2.05 or register a transfer of (i) any Notes surrendered for exchange in accordance with Article 14 or, if a portion of any Note is surrendered for exchange in accordance with Article 14, such portion thereof surrendered for exchange in accordance with Article 14, (ii) any Notes, or a portion of any Note, surrendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) in accordance with Article 15 or (iii) any Notes selected for redemption in accordance with Article 16.

All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer of Notes or exchange of Notes for other Notes in accordance with this Indenture shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer of Notes or exchange of Notes for other Notes.

As used in this Section 2.05(c) and Section 2.05(d), the term “transfer” encompasses any sale, pledge, transfer or other disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Security.

Any certificate evidencing such Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following form unless such Notes have been transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has become or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer, or unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the REIT in writing, with notice thereof to the Trustee:

Physical Notes issued in exchange for all or a part of the Global Notes pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee in writing. Upon execution and authentication, the Trustee shall deliver such Physical Notes to the Persons in whose names such Physical Notes are so registered.

At such time as all interests in a Global Note have been exchanged, canceled, repurchased or transferred, such Global Note shall be, upon receipt thereof, canceled by the Trustee in accordance with standing procedures and existing instructions between the Depositary and the Custodian. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Physical Notes, exchanged, canceled, repurchased or transferred to a transferee who receives Physical Notes therefor or any Physical Note is exchanged or transferred for part of such Global Note, the principal amount of such Global Note shall, in accordance with the standing procedures and instructions existing between the Depositary and the Custodian, be appropriately reduced or increased, as the case may be, and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note, by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such reduction or increase.

None of the Company, the REIT, the Trustee or any agent of the Company, the REIT or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note or maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF OR OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN, THE ACQUIRER:

(2) AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF KITE REALTY GROUP, L.P. (THE “COMPANY”) AND KITE REALTY GROUP TRUST (THE “REIT”) THAT IT WILL NOT OFFER, SELL, PLEDGE OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS SECURITY OR ANY BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN PRIOR TO THE DATE THAT IS THE LATER OF (X) ONE YEAR AFTER THE ISSUE DATE HEREOF OR SUCH SHORTER PERIOD OF TIME AS PERMITTED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY SUCCESSOR PROVISION THERETO AND (Y) SUCH LATER DATE, IF ANY, AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EXCEPT:

(A) TO THE COMPANY, THE REIT OR ANY SUBSIDIARY THEREOF, OR

(B) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WHICH HAS BECOME EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR

(D) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.

NO REPRESENTATION IS MADE AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF ANY EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.

Any such Common Shares as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms may, upon surrender of the certificates representing such Common Shares for exchange in accordance with the procedures of the transfer agent for the Common Shares, be exchanged for a new certificate or certificates for a like aggregate number of Common Shares, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by this Section 2.05(d). The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

The Trustee or such authenticating agent may authenticate any such substituted Note and deliver the same upon the receipt of such security or indemnity as the Trustee, the Company, the REIT and, if applicable, such authenticating agent may require. No service charge shall be imposed by the Company, the REIT, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, any co-Note Registrar or the Paying Agent upon the issuance of any substitute Note, but the Company may require a Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax required in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new substitute Note being different from the name of the Holder of the old Note that became mutilated or was destroyed, lost or stolen. In case any Note that has matured or is about to mature or has been surrendered for required repurchase or is about to be exchanged in accordance with Article 14 shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may, in its sole discretion, instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or authorize the payment of or exchange or authorize the exchange of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Note), as the case may be, if the applicant for such payment or exchange shall furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless for any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such substitution, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and, if applicable, any Paying Agent or Exchange Agent of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof.

Every substitute Note issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.06 by virtue of the fact that any Note is destroyed, lost or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company and the REIT, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be found at any time, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of (but shall be subject to all the limitations set forth in) this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder. To the extent permitted by law, all Notes shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement, payment, exchange, redemption or repurchase of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement, payment, exchange, redemption or repurchase of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.

Section 2.07. Temporary Notes. Pending the preparation of Physical Notes, the Company may execute and the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver temporary Notes (printed or lithographed). Temporary Notes shall be issuable in any authorized denomination, and substantially in the form of the Physical Notes but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Notes, all as may be determined by the Company. Every such temporary Note shall be executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee or such authenticating agent upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the Physical Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Trustee or such authenticating agent Physical Notes (other than any Global Note) and thereupon any or all temporary Notes (other than any Global Note) may be surrendered in exchange therefor, at each office or agency maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 4.02 and the Trustee or such authenticating agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Notes an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical Notes. Such exchange shall be made by the Company at its own expense and without any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same limitations under this Indenture as Physical Notes authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Section 2.08. Cancellation of Notes Paid, Exchanged, Etc. The Company shall cause all Notes surrendered for the purpose of payment, repurchase, redemption, registration of transfer of Notes or exchange of Notes for other Notes or in accordance with Article 14, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee (including any of the Company’s or the REIT’s agents, Subsidiaries or Affiliates), to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. All Notes delivered to the Trustee shall be canceled promptly by it, and no Notes shall be authenticated in exchange thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. The Trustee shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures and shall deliver a certificate of such disposition to the Company, at the Company’s written request.

Section 2.09. CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in all notices issued to Holders as a convenience to such Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or on such notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such notices shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

Section 2.10. Additional Notes; Repurchases. The Company may, without the consent of the Holders and notwithstanding Section 2.01, reopen this Indenture and issue additional Notes hereunder with the same terms as the Notes initially issued hereunder (other than differences in the issue price and interest accrued prior to the issue date of such additional Notes) in an unlimited aggregate principal amount; provided that if any such additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes initially issued hereunder for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional Notes shall have a separate CUSIP number. Prior to the issuance of any such additional Notes, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a Company Order, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, such Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to cover such matters, in addition to those required by Section 17.05, as the Trustee shall reasonably request. In addition, the Company may, to the extent permitted by law, and directly or indirectly (regardless of whether such Notes are surrendered to the Company), repurchase Notes in the open market or otherwise, whether by the Company or its Subsidiaries or through a private or public tender or exchange offer or through counterparties pursuant to private agreements, including by cash-settled swaps or other cash-settled derivatives. The Company shall cause any Notes so repurchased (other than Notes repurchased pursuant to cash-settled swaps or other derivatives) to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with Section 2.08.

Section 2.11. Ranking. The obligations of the Company arising under or in connection with this Indenture and every outstanding Note issued under this Indenture from time to time constitute and shall constitute a general unsecured senior obligation of the Company, ranking equally with existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness of the Company and ranking senior in right of payment to any existing and future indebtedness of the Company that is expressly made subordinate to the Notes by the terms of such indebtedness.

ARTICLE 3

Subject to Section 4.04(d) hereof, all monies and Common Shares, if any, deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof shall be held in trust for the sole benefit of the Holders of the Notes, and such monies and Common Shares shall be applied by the Trustee to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company if acting as its own Paying Agent), to the Holders of the particular Notes for the payment or settlement of which such monies or Common Shares have been deposited with the Trustee, of all sums or amounts due and to become due thereon for principal and interest, if any.

Section 3.03. Paying Agent to Repay Monies Held. Upon the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture with respect to the Notes, all monies and Common Shares, if any, then held by any Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee) with respect to the Notes shall, upon written request of the Company, be repaid to it or paid to the Trustee, and thereupon such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such monies and Common Shares.

Section 3.04. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Common Shares in accordance with Section 3.02 by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s obligations under the Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 3.01 until such time as the Trustee or the Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money and Common Shares in accordance with Section 3.02; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of interest on, principal of or payment or delivery in respect of any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or Common Shares, if any, held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

PARTICULAR COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY and/or the reit

Section 4.01. Payment of Principal and Interest. The Company covenants and agrees that it will cause to be paid the principal (including the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, each of the Notes at the places, at the respective times and in the manner provided herein and in the Notes.

Section 4.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company will maintain in the continental United States an office or agency where the Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer of Notes or exchange of Notes for other Notes or for presentation for payment or repurchase (“Paying Agent”) or for exchange in accordance with Article 14 (“Exchange Agent”) and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency not designated or appointed by the Trustee. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office or the office or agency of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York.

The Company may also from time to time designate as co-Note Registrars one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the continental United States for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. The terms “Paying Agent” and “Exchange Agent” include any such additional or other offices or agencies, as applicable.

The Company hereby initially designates the Trustee as the Paying Agent, Note Registrar, Custodian and Exchange Agent and the Corporate Trust Office as the office or agency in the continental United States where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer of Notes or exchange of Notes for other Notes or for presentation for payment or repurchase or for exchange in accordance with Article 14.

Section 4.03. Appointments to Fill Vacancies in Trustee’s Office. The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy in the office of Trustee, will appoint, in the manner provided in Section 7.09, a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder.

Section 4.04. Provisions as to Paying Agent. (a) If the Company shall appoint a Paying Agent other than the Trustee, the Company will cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.04:

(i) that it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes;

(ii) that it will give the Trustee prompt notice of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes when the same shall be due and payable; and

(iii) that at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon request of the Trustee, it will forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust.

The Company shall, on or before each due date of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, if applicable) of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes, deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, if applicable) or accrued and unpaid interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any failure to take such action; provided that if such deposit is made on the due date, such deposit must be received by the Paying Agent by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date.

(b) If the Company shall act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes a sum sufficient to pay such principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, if applicable) and accrued and unpaid interest so becoming due and will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action and of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, if applicable) of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes when the same shall become due and payable.

(c) Anything in this Section 4.04 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, or for any other reason, pay, cause to be paid or deliver to the Trustee all sums or amounts held in trust by the Company or any Paying Agent hereunder as required by this Section 4.04, such sums or amounts to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained and upon such payment or delivery by the Company or any Paying Agent to the Trustee, the Company or such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability but only with respect to such sums or amounts.

(d) Any money and Common Shares deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, if applicable) of, accrued and unpaid interest on and the consideration due upon exchange of any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, if applicable), interest or consideration due upon exchange has become due and payable shall, subject to applicable escheat laws, be paid to the Company on request of the Company contained in an Officers’ Certificate, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money and Common Shares, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that prior to the Trustee or such Paying Agent making any such repayment, the Company shall publish in a newspaper of general circulation in New York City or publish such information on the Company’s website or through such other public medium as the Company deems appropriate at that time, a notice that such money and Common Shares remain unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money and Common Shares then remaining will be repaid or delivered to the Company.

Section 4.05. Existence. Subject to Article 11, each of the Company and the REIT shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence.

Section 4.06. Rule 144A Information Requirement and Annual Reports. (a) At any time the Company and the REIT are not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company and the REIT shall, so long as any of the Notes or any Common Shares issuable upon exchange thereof will, at such time, constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, promptly furnish to the Holders, beneficial owners and prospective purchasers of the Notes and of any Common Shares delivered upon exchange of the Notes, upon their written request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act to facilitate the resale of the Notes and such Common Shares pursuant to Rule 144A. The Company shall take such further action as any Holder or beneficial owner of such Notes may reasonably request to the extent from time to time required to enable such Holder or beneficial owner to sell such Notes or Common Shares in accordance with Rule 144A, as such rule may be amended from time to time.

(b) The Company shall file with the Trustee, within 15 days after the same are required to be filed with the Commission, copies of any documents or reports that the REIT is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (giving effect to any grace period provided by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act). Any such document or report that the REIT files with the Commission via the Commission’s ▇▇▇▇▇ system (or any successor thereto) shall be deemed to be filed with the Trustee for purposes of this Section 4.06(b) at the time such documents are filed via the ▇▇▇▇▇ system (or such successor thereto); provided, however, that the Trustee shall have no responsibility whatsoever to determine if such filing has occurred.

(c) Delivery of the reports and documents described in subsection (b) above to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to conclusively rely on an Officers’ Certificate).

Section 4.07. Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. Each of the Company and the REIT covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and each of the Company and the REIT (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Section 4.08. Compliance Certificate; Statements as to Defaults. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company (beginning with the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2021) an Officers’ Certificate stating (1) that a review has been conducted of the activities of the Company, its Subsidiaries and of the REIT and their respective performance under this Indenture and (2) that the Company and the REIT have fulfilled all obligations under this Indenture (such compliance to be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided under this Indenture) or specifying any Event of Default and the nature thereof.

In addition, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 30 days after an Officer of the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the details of such Default or Event of Default, its status and the action that the Company is taking or proposing to take in respect thereof.

Section 4.09. Additional Interest Notice. If Additional Interest is payable by the Company pursuant to Section 6.03 or the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee at least ten (10) calendar days prior to the applicable payment date an Officers’ Certificate to that effect stating (a) the amount of such Additional Interest that is payable and (b) the date on which such interest is payable. Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives at the Corporate Trust Office such a certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no such Additional Interest is payable. If the Company has paid Additional Interest directly to the Persons entitled to them, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee promptly following such payment an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the particulars of such payment.

Section 4.10. Covenant to Take Certain Actions. Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment to the Exchange Rate such that the Exchange Price per Common Share issuable upon exchange of the Notes would be less than the par value of the Common Shares, the REIT shall take all corporate actions that may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary so it may validly and legally issue Common Shares at such adjusted Exchange Rate.

ARTICLE 5
LISTS OF HOLDERS AND REPORTS BY THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE

Section 5.01. Lists of Holders. The Company and the REIT covenant and agree that they will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee, semi-annually, not more than 10 days after each March 15 and September 15 in each year beginning with March 15, 2022, and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after receipt by the Company of any such request (or such lesser time as the Trustee may reasonably request in order to enable it to timely provide any notice to be provided by it hereunder), a list in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders as of a date not more than 15 days (or such other date as the Trustee may reasonably request in order to so provide any such notices) prior to the time such information is furnished, except that no such list need be furnished so long as the Trustee is acting as Note Registrar.

Section 6.03. Additional Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary, to the extent the Company elects, the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b) (a “Reporting Event of Default”) shall after the occurrence of such an Event of Default consist exclusively of the right to receive additional interest (the “Additional Interest”) on the Notes at a rate equal to (i) 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding the first 90 days of the 180-day period on which such Event of Default is continuing beginning on, and including, the date on which such an Event of Default first occurs and (ii) 0.50% per annum of the Outstanding principal amount of the Notes for the last 90 days of such 180-day period as long as such Event of Default is continuing beginning on and including the 91st day after such Event of Default. If the Company so elects, such Additional Interest shall be payable in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on the Notes and shall be in addition to, not in lieu of, any liquidated damages payable pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement; provided that in no event shall Additional Interest pursuant to this Section 6.03 and liquidated damages pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement accrue at a rate, in the aggregate, in excess of 0.50% per annum regardless of the number of events or circumstances giving rise to the requirement to pay such Additional Interest pursuant to this Section 6.03 and/or liquidated damages pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. On the 181st day after such Event of Default (if the Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b) is not cured or waived prior to such 181st day), the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02.

In order to elect to pay the Additional Interest as the sole remedy during the first 180 days after the occurrence of a Reporting Event of Default, the Company must notify all Holders of Notes, the Trustee and the Paying Agent of such election prior to the beginning of such 180-day period. Upon the Company’s failure to timely give such notice, the Notes will be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02.

Section 6.04. Payments of Notes on Default; Suit Therefor. If an Event of Default described in clause (a) or (b) of Section 6.01 shall have occurred, the Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, if any, with interest on any overdue principal and interest, if any, at the rate borne by the Notes at such time, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover any amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.06. If the Company shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated. Until such demand by the Trustee, the Company may pay the principal and interest, if any, on the Notes to the registered Holders, whether or not the Notes are overdue.

In the event there shall be pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company or any other obligor on the Notes under Title 11 of the United States Code, or any other applicable law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Company or such other obligor, the property of the Company or such other obligor, or in the event of any other judicial proceedings relative to the Company or such other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.04, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in respect of the Notes, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents and to take such other actions as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any other obligor on the Notes, its or their creditors, or its or their property, and to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction of any amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.06; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, custodian or similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Holders to make such payments to the Trustee, as administrative expenses, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for reasonable compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements, including counsel fees, and including any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.06, incurred by it up to the date of such distribution. To the extent that such payment of reasonable compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements out of the estate in any such proceedings shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, monies, securities and other property that the Holders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceedings, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting such Holder or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes, or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and its counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.

In any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and in any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party) the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to make any Holders of the Notes parties to any such proceedings.

In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of any waiver pursuant to Section 6.09 or any rescission and annulment pursuant to Section 6.02 or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company, the REIT, the Holders and the Trustee shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the REIT, the Holders and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 6.05. Application of Monies Collected by Trustee. Any monies collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 6 shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such monies, upon presentation of the several Notes, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof, if fully paid:

First, to the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06;

Second, in case the principal of the outstanding Notes shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of interest on, and any cash due upon exchange of, the Notes in default in the order of the date due of the payments of such interest and cash due upon exchange, as the case may be, with interest (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon such overdue payments at the rate borne by the Notes at such time, such payments to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto;

Third, in case the principal of the outstanding Notes shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, and be unpaid to the payment of the whole amount (including, if applicable, the payment of the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price and any cash due upon exchange) then owing and unpaid upon the Notes for principal and interest, if any, with interest on the overdue principal and, to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee, upon overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Notes at such time, and in case such monies shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amounts so due and unpaid upon the Notes, then to the payment of such principal (including, if applicable, the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price and the cash due upon exchange) and interest without preference or priority of principal over interest, or of interest over principal or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Note over any other Note, ratably to the aggregate of such principal (including, if applicable, the Redemption Price the Fundamental Change Purchase Price and any cash due upon exchange) and accrued and unpaid interest; and

Fourth, to the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company.

Section 6.06. Proceedings by Holders. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal (including, if applicable, the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price) or interest when due, or the right to receive payment or delivery of the consideration due upon exchange, no Holder of any Note shall have any right by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian or other similar official, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(a) such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as herein provided;

(b) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

(c) such Holder or Holders shall have offered to the Trustee such indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it against any costs, liabilities or expenses to be incurred in compliance with such request;

(d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding; and

(e) during such 60-day period, no direction that is inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee by the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding pursuant to Section 6.09,

it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by the taker and Holder of every Note with every other taker and Holder and the Trustee that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holder), or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders (except as otherwise provided herein). For the protection and enforcement of this Section 6.06, each and every Holder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture and any provision of any Note, the right of any Holder to receive payment or delivery, as the case may be, of (x) the principal (including the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, the Redemption Price, if applicable) of, (y) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, and (z) the consideration due upon exchange of, such Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note or in this Indenture, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment or delivery, as the case may be, on or after such respective dates against the Company shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

Section 6.07. Proceedings by Trustee. In case of an Event of Default, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as are necessary to protect and enforce any of such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by proceeding in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

Section 6.08. Remedies Cumulative and Continuing. Except as provided in the last paragraph of Section 2.06, all powers and remedies given by this Article 6 to the Trustee or to the Holders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any thereof or of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any of the Notes to exercise any right or power accruing upon any continuing Default or continuing Event of Default shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.06, every power and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders.

Section 6.09. Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Holders. The Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04 shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes; provided, however, that (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and (b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. The Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that it determines in good faith is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04 may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except (i) a default in the payment of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, or the principal (including the Redemption Price or the Fundamental Change Purchase Price) of, the Notes when due that has not been cured, (ii) a failure by the Company to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due upon exchange of the Notes or (iii) a default in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 10 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected. Upon any such waiver, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any Default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 6.09, said Default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Notes and this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 6.10. Notice of Defaults. The Trustee shall, within 90 days after a Responsible Officer has received written notice of the occurrence and continuance of a Default, send to all Holders as the names and addresses of such Holders appear upon the Note Register, notice of all such Defaults known to a Responsible Officer, unless such Defaults shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice; provided that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, if applicable), or accrued and unpaid interest on, any of the Notes or a Default in the payment or delivery of the consideration due upon exchange, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders.

Section 6.11. Undertaking to Pay Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may, in its discretion, require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided that the provisions of this Section 6.11 (to the extent permitted by law) shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on any Note (including, but not limited to, the Fundamental Change Purchase Price with respect to the Notes being repurchased as provided in this Indenture) on or after the due date expressed or provided for in such Note or to any suit for the enforcement of the right to exchange any Note in accordance with the provisions of Article 14.

Section 7.03. No Responsibility for Recitals, Etc. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes (except in the Trustee’s certificate of authentication) shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of any Notes or the proceeds of any Notes authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture.

Section 7.04. Trustee, Paying Agents, Exchange Agents or Note Registrar May Own Notes. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Exchange Agent or Note Registrar, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee, Paying Agent, Exchange Agent or Note Registrar.

Section 7.05. Monies and Common Shares to Be Held in Trust. All monies and Common Shares received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received. Money and Common Shares held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

Section 7.06. Compensation and Expenses of Trustee. The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder in any capacity (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as mutually agreed to in writing between the Trustee and the Company, and the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances reasonably incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture in any capacity thereunder (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as shall have been caused by its negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. The Company also covenants to indemnify the Trustee in any capacity under this Indenture and any other document or transaction entered into in connection herewith and any authenticating agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense incurred without negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, its officers, directors or employees, or such authenticating agent, as the case may be, and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture or in any other capacity hereunder, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim of liability in the premises. The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.06 to compensate or indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be secured by a senior claim to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except, subject to the effect of Section 6.05, funds held in trust herewith for the benefit of the Holders of particular Notes.

The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnification provided in this Section 7.06 shall extend to the officers, directors and employees of the Trustee.

Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee and any authenticating agent incur expenses or render services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws.

Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence, willful misconduct and bad faith on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, and such Officers’ Certificate, in the absence of negligence, willful misconduct and bad faith on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.

Section 7.08. Eligibility of Trustee. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 7.08, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.08, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article 7.

Section 7.09. Resignation or Removal of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to the Company. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Trustees, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 60 days, the resigning Trustee may, upon 10 Business Days’ notice to the Company, petition at the expense of the Company any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee, or any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months may, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee.

(b) In case at any time any of the following shall occur:

(i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.08 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or

(ii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in either case, the Company may by a Board Resolution remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Trustees, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months may, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

(c) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, as determined in accordance with Section 8.04, may at any time remove the Trustee and nominate a successor trustee that shall be deemed appointed as successor trustee unless within 10 days after notice to the Company of such nomination the Company objects thereto, in which case the Trustee so removed or any Holder, upon the terms and conditions and otherwise as in Section 7.09(a) provided, may, at the expense of the Company, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for an appointment of a successor trustee.

(d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 7.09 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 7.10.

Section 7.10. Acceptance by Successor Trustee. Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 7.09 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the successor trustee, the trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and powers of the trustee so ceasing to act. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a senior claim to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by such trustee as such, except for funds held in trust for the benefit of Holders of particular Notes, to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06.

No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 7.10 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.08.

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 7.10, each of the Company and the successor trustee, at the written direction and at the expense of the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to the Holders at their addresses as they shall appear on the Note Register. If the Company fails to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Company.

Section 7.11. Succession by Merger, Etc. Any corporation or other entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or other entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee (including the administration of this Indenture), shall be the successor to the Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided that in the case of any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee such corporation or other entity shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.08.

In case at the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or authenticating agent appointed by such predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by such successor trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor trustee hereunder or in the name of the successor trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or to authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.

Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the Holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action, the Holders of such specified percentage have joined therein may be evidenced by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by Holders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing. Whenever the Company or the Trustee solicits the taking of any action by the Holders of the Notes, the Company or the Trustee may, but shall not be required to, fix in advance of such solicitation, a date as the record date for determining Holders entitled to take such action. The record date if one is selected shall be not more than 15 days prior to the date of commencement of solicitation of such action.

Section 8.02. Proof of Execution by Holders. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01 and Section 7.02, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Holder or its agent or proxy shall be sufficient if made in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee. The holding of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register or by a certificate of the Note Registrar.

Section 8.03. Who Are Deemed Absolute Owners. The Company, the Trustee, any authenticating agent, any Paying Agent, any Exchange Agent and any Note Registrar may deem the Person in whose name a Note shall be registered upon the Note Register to be, and may treat it as, the absolute owner of such Note (whether or not such Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by any Person other than the Company or any Note Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and (subject to Section 2.03) accrued and unpaid interest on such Note, for exchange of such Note and for all other purposes; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Paying Agent nor any Exchange Agent nor any Note Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments or deliveries so made to any Holder for the time being, or upon its order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sums or Common Shares so paid or delivered, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for monies payable or shares deliverable upon any such Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes following an Event of Default, any Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note may directly enforce against the Company, without the consent, solicitation, proxy, authorization or any other action of the Depositary or any other Person, such Holder’s right to exchange such beneficial interest for a Note in certificated form in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Section 8.04. Company-Owned Notes Disregarded. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, consent, waiver or other action under this Indenture, Notes that are owned by the Company, by the REIT, by any Subsidiary of the Company or the REIT or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company, the REIT or any Subsidiary of the Company or the REIT shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such determination; provided that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent, waiver or other action only Notes that a Responsible Officer actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned that have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding for the purposes of this Section 8.04 if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to so act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company, the REIT, a Subsidiary of the Company or the REIT or a Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company, the REIT or any Subsidiary of the Company or the REIT. In the case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an Officers’ Certificate listing and identifying all Notes, if any, known by the Company or the REIT to be owned or held by or for the account of any of the above-described Persons; and, subject to Section 7.01, the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officers’ Certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Notes not listed therein are outstanding for the purpose of any such determination.

Section 8.05. Revocation of Consents; Future Holders Bound. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section 8.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Note that is shown by the evidence to be included in the Notes the Holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 8.02, revoke such action so far as concerns such Note. Except as aforesaid, any such action taken by the Holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of such Note and of any Notes issued in exchange or substitution therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof, irrespective of whether any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Note or any Note issued in exchange or substitution therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof.

ARTICLE 9

POSSIBLE FUTURE GUARANTOR

Section 9.01. Possible Future Guarantor.

The REIT will be required to fully and unconditionally guarantee the due and punctual payment of the principal of, interest on and amount due upon exchange of the Notes when due, whether on the Maturity Date, by declaration of acceleration, upon exchange of the Notes in accordance with Article 14 hereof or call for redemption or purchase at the option of the Holders, on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis, together with amounts owing to the Trustee, all as provided in this Article 9 if, and for so long as, it guarantees the Credit Agreement. Such Guarantee would rank equally with other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Company.

Section 9.02. The Guarantee.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 9.03, the provisions of this Section 9.02 shall be applicable at all times when the REIT is required to guarantee the Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.01.

(b) The REIT hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees (the “Guarantee”) to each Holder of a Note and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes, the obligations of the Company under this Indenture or the Notes or restrictions of any kind on the Company’s performance of its obligations under this Indenture or the Notes, and waiving all rights of objection and defense arising from the Notes, that: (i) the principal of, and interest on, the Notes will be punctually paid in full when due, whether on the Maturity Date or Interest Payment Date, by acceleration, call for redemption, repurchase at the option of Holders or otherwise; (ii) all other obligations of the Company to the Holders (including without limitation the delivery of amounts due upon exchange in accordance with the provisions of Article 14) or the Trustee under this Indenture or the Notes will be promptly paid or delivered in full, as the case may be, all in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Notes; and (iii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations thereunder, they will be paid or delivered in full when due in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether on the Maturity Date or any Interest Payment Date, by acceleration, call for redemption, repurchase at the option of holders, upon exchange or otherwise. Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed for whatever reason, the REIT shall be obligated to pay the same before failure so to pay becomes an Event of Default with respect to Notes. If the Company defaults in the payment of the principal of, interest on or amounts due upon exchange with respect to, the Notes when and as the same shall become due, whether on the Maturity Date, any Interest Payment Date, by acceleration, upon exchange, call for redemption, or otherwise, without the necessity of action by the Trustee or any Holder, the REIT shall be required to promptly make such payment in full.

(c) The REIT agrees that its obligations with regard to this Guarantee shall be as principal and not merely as surety and shall be full, irrevocable and unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any delays in obtaining or realizing upon or failures to obtain or realize upon collateral, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or a guarantor. The REIT hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company or right to require the prior disposition of the assets of the Company to meet its obligations, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of all obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. The Guarantee is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. The obligations of the REIT under this Guarantee will constitute direct, unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the REIT and the REIT undertakes that its obligations hereunder will rank pari passu with all other present or future direct, unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the REIT, save for such obligations as may be mandatorily preferred by law.

(d) The Guarantee shall continue in full force and effect by way of continuing security until all principal, interest, if any, and amounts due on exchange have been paid or delivered in full and all other actual or contingent obligations of the Company in relation to the Notes or under the Indenture have been satisfied in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any payment received by any Holder is, on the subsequent bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company, avoided under any applicable laws, including, among others, laws relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, such payment will not be considered as having discharged or diminished the liability of the REIT and the Guarantee will continue to apply as if such payment had at all times remained owing by the Company.

(e) If any Holder of Notes or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to any of the Company or the REIT, or any custodian, trustee, or similar official acting in relation to any of the Company or the REIT, any amount paid by any of the Company or the REIT to the Trustee or such Holder, the Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. The REIT agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders of Notes in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations under the Notes. The REIT further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 6.02 for the purposes of the Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration as to the Company of the obligations so guaranteed, and (ii) in the event of any acceleration of those obligations as provided in Section 6.02, those obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the REIT with respect to Notes for purposes of the Guarantee.

(f) The REIT and by its acceptance of a Note issued hereunder each Holder hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee by the REIT set forth in this Section 9.02 not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purpose of any Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar Federal or state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and the REIT hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of the REIT under the Guarantee set forth in this Section 9.02 shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of REIT, result in the obligations of the REIT not constituting such a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

(g) It is the intention of the parties that the obligations of the REIT shall be in, but not in excess of, the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Accordingly, if the obligations in respect of the Guarantee would be annulled, avoided or subordinated to the creditors of the REIT by a court of competent jurisdiction in a proceeding actually pending before such court as a result of a determination both that such Guarantee was made without fair consideration and, immediately after giving effect thereto, the REIT was insolvent or unable to pay its debts as they mature or left with an unreasonably small capital, then the obligations of the REIT under the Guarantee shall be reduced by such court if and to the extent such reduction would result in the avoidance of such annulment, avoidance or subordination; provided, however, that any reduction pursuant to this paragraph shall be made in the smallest amount as is strictly necessary to reach such result. For purposes of this paragraph, “fair consideration,” “insolvency,” “unable to pay its debts as they mature,” “unreasonably small capital” and the effective times of reductions, if any, required by this paragraph shall be determined in accordance with applicable law.

(h) If the obligations of the REIT are reduced pursuant to Section 9.02(f) or 9.02(g) above, such reduction shall be applied proportionately with respect to all Notes guaranteed under this Section 9.02, in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amount of such Notes so guaranteed and being then due upon the acceleration of the payment of such Notes.

Section 9.03. Termination of Guarantee.

(a) If the REIT guarantees the Notes, the Guarantee will automatically and unconditionally terminate and be released and any supplemental indenture, to the extent relating thereto, shall no longer have any effect, upon:

(1) the REIT no longer guaranteeing or otherwise being an obligor with respect to the Credit Agreement, provided that the foregoing provisions of this clause (1) and any release of the REIT’s Guarantee pursuant to this clause (1) shall not limit the obligation of the Company to guarantee the Notes at any time thereafter pursuant to this Article 9; or

(2) discharge of the Notes, as provided in Article 3 of this Indenture.

At the written request and expense of the Company, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of the REIT from its obligations under the Guarantee.

Section 9.04. Evidence of Guarantee. If the REIT is required to guarantee the Notes pursuant to Section 9.01, the REIT will immediately be and become, automatically and without the execution or delivery of any supplemental indenture or other instrument or other action by any person, a guarantor of the Notes and shall be subject to and bound by all of the terms and provisions of this Article 9; provided, that the REIT shall execute and deliver a supplemental indenture to this Indenture to evidence the Guarantee within 10 Business Days of the execution thereof. For so long as the REIT guarantees the Notes, it agrees that it waives and will not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of any right of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against the Company as a result of any payment by the REIT under the Guarantee until the Notes have been paid in full.

ARTICLE 10

SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

Section 10.01. Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Holders. The Company, when authorized by the resolutions of the Board of Trustees, and the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for one or more of the following purposes:

(a) to conform the provisions of this Indenture or the Notes to the description thereof in the Offering Memorandum;

(b) to evidence the succession by a Successor Entity and to provide for the assumption by a Successor Entity of the Company’s or the REIT’S obligations under the Indenture and the Notes, as applicable;

(d) to secure the Notes;

(e) to add to the Company’s or the REIT’s covenants such further covenants, restrictions or conditions for the benefit of the Holders (or any other holders) or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company or the REIT by the Indenture;

(f) (i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency in the Indenture or the Notes or (ii) to make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder in any material respect;

(g) to provide for a successor Trustee; or

(h) to comply with the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary.

Upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Company and the REIT in the execution of any such supplemental indenture, to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to, but may in its discretion, enter into any supplemental indenture that affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Any supplemental indenture authorized by the provisions of this Section 10.01 may be executed by the Company, the REIT and the Trustee without the consent of the Holders of any of the Notes at the time outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 10.02.

Section 10.02. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. With the consent (evidenced as provided in Article 8) of the Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding (determined in accordance with Article 8 and including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a repurchase of, or tender or exchange offer for, Notes), the Company and the REIT, when authorized by the resolutions of the Board of Trustees and the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders; provided, however, that, without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected, no such supplemental indenture shall:

(a) reduce the percentage in aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding necessary to waive any past Default or Event of Default;

(b) reduce the rate of interest on any Note or change the time for payment of interest on any Note;

(d) reduce the principal of any Note or change the Maturity Date;

(e) change the place or currency of payment on any Note;

(f) make any change that impairs or adversely affects the exchange rights of any Notes;

(g) reduce the Redemption Price or make any other change to the provisions of Article 16 that is materially adverse to Holders in any way;

(h) reduce the Fundamental Change Purchase Price of any Note or amend or modify in any manner adverse to the rights of the Holders of the Notes the Company’s obligation to pay the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, whether through an amendment or waiver of provisions in the covenants, definitions related thereto or otherwise;

(i) impair the right of any Holder of Notes to receive payment of principal of, and interest, if any, on, its Notes, or the right to receive payment of cash and, if applicable, Common Shares or other consideration, together with cash in lieu thereof in respect of any fractional shares, due upon exchange of its Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment or delivery, as the case may be, with respect to such Holder’s Notes;

(j) modify the ranking provisions of the Indenture in a manner that is adverse to the rights of the Holders of the Notes; or

(k) make any change to the provisions of this Article 10 that requires each Holder’s consent or in the waiver provisions in Section 6.09 if such change is adverse to the rights of Holders of the Notes.

It shall not be necessary for any act or consent of Holders under this Section 10.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such act or consent shall approve the substance thereof. The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to consent to any indenture supplemental hereto. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such supplemental indenture, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such consent shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the date which is 90 days after such record date, any such consent previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be canceled and of no further effect.

Upon the written request of the Company, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Holders as aforesaid and subject to Section 10.05, the Trustee shall join with the Company and the REIT in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture.

Holders do not need under this Section 10.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture. It shall be sufficient if such Holders approve the substance thereof. After any such supplemental indenture becomes effective, the Company shall send to the Holders a notice briefly describing such supplemental indenture. However, the failure to give such notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice, will not impair or affect the validity of the supplemental indenture.

Section 10.03. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article 10, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitation of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the Company, the REIT and the Holders shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.

Section 10.04. Notation on Notes. Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article 10 may, at the Company’s expense, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company or the Trustee shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Trustees, to any modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may, at the Company’s expense, be prepared and executed by the Company, authenticated upon receipt of a Company Order, by the Trustee (or an authenticating agent duly appointed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 17.10) and delivered in exchange for the Notes then outstanding, upon surrender of such Notes then outstanding.

Section 10.05. Trustee to Sign Amendments. The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant hereto if the amendment or supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. In executing any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee shall receive and shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 17.05, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this indenture.

(b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under the Indenture.

Section 11.02. Successor Entity to Be Substituted.

All the Notes so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Notes theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Notes had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. In the event of any such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer (but not in the case of a lease), the Person named as the “Company” in the first paragraph of this Indenture (or any successor that shall thereafter have become such in the manner prescribed in this Article 11) may be dissolved, wound up and liquidated at any time thereafter and, except in the case of a lease, such Person shall be released from its liabilities as obligor and maker of the Notes and from its obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the Registration Rights Agreement.

In case of any such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease, such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the Notes thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

In the case of any such amalgamation, merger, consolidation, conveyance, transfer or lease, the Trustee shall receive an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that any such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and any such assumption and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture, complies with the provisions of this Article 11.

ARTICLE 13
[RESERVED]

ARTICLE 14
EXCHANGE OF NOTES

Section 14.01. Right to Exchange. (a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of the Indenture, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to exchange its Notes, or any portion of its Notes such that the principal amount that remains outstanding of each Note that is not exchanged in full equals $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, for the Settlement Amount determined in accordance with Section 14.03(a) hereof, (x) prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding January 1, 2027, only upon satisfaction of one or more of the conditions described in Section 14.01(b) hereof, and (y) on or after January 1, 2027, at any time prior to the Close of Business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.

(b) (1) Prior to the Close of Business on January 1, 2027, a Holder may surrender all or any portion of its Notes for exchange at any time during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2021 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the Last Reported Sale Price of Common Shares for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the last Trading Day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable Exchange Price on each applicable Trading Day.

(2) Prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding January 1, 2027, a Holder may surrender all or any portion of its Notes for exchange at any time during the five Business Day period after any 10 consecutive Trading Day period (the “Measurement Period”) in which the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, as determined following a request by a Holder in accordance with the procedures set forth in this subsection (b)(2) for each Trading Day of the Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares and (y) the applicable Exchange Rate on each such Trading Day. The Trading Prices shall be determined by the Bid Solicitation Agent pursuant to this subsection (b)(2) and the definition of “Trading Price” set forth in this Indenture. The Company shall provide written notice to the Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) of the three independent nationally recognized securities dealers selected by the Company in accordance with the definition of Trading Price, along with the appropriate contact information for each. The Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes unless the Company has requested such determination; and the Company shall have no obligation to make such request (or, if the Company is the Bid Solicitation Agent, the Company shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price of the Notes) unless a Holder of a Note provides the Company with reasonable evidence that the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes would be less than 98% of the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares on such Trading Day and (y) the applicable Exchange Rate on such Trading Day. At such time, the Company shall instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) to determine or, if the Company is the Bid Solicitation Agent, the Company shall determine the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes beginning on the next Trading Day and on each successive Trading Day until the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for a Trading Day is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares on such Trading Day and (y) the applicable Exchange Rate on such Trading Day. Whenever the condition to exchange set forth in this subsection (b)(2) has been met, the Company will so notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee). If, at any time after the condition to exchange set forth in this subsection (b)(2) has been met, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares and (y) the applicable Exchange Rate for such date, the Company will so notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) promptly. The Company will initially act as Bid Solicitation Agent.

(3) If the Company calls any or all Notes for Optional Redemption pursuant to Article 16 hereof prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding January 1, 2027, then a Holder may surrender all or any portion of its Notes for exchange at any time prior to the Close of Business on the Scheduled Trading Day prior to the relevant Redemption Date, even if the Notes are not otherwise exchangeable at such time. After that time, the right to exchange on account of the Company’s delivery of a Redemption Notice shall expire, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, in which case a Holder of Notes may exchange its Notes until the Redemption Price has been paid or duly provided for.

(4) If, prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding January 1, 2027, the REIT elects to:

(A) issue to all or substantially all holders of the Common Shares any rights, options or warrants entitling them for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Shares at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Shares for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance (taking into account any consideration received by the Company as described in Section 14.04(b)); or

(B) distribute to all or substantially all holders of the Common Shares the Company’s assets, securities or rights to purchase the REIT’s securities, which distribution has a per share value, as reasonably determined by the Board of Trustees, exceeding 10% of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for such distribution,

then, in either case, the Company must notify the Holders at least 45 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution. Once the Company has given such notice, Holders may surrender all or any portion of their Notes for exchange at any time until the earlier of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution and the Company’s announcement that such issuance or distribution will not take place, even if the Notes are not otherwise exchangeable at such time. Holders of the Notes will not, however, have the right to exchange pursuant to this subsection (b)(4) if they participate, at the same time and upon the same terms, as holders of Common Shares in any of the transactions described above without having to exchange their Notes as if they held a number of shares of the Common Shares equal to the applicable Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such holder on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution.

(5) If (A) a Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding January 1, 2027, regardless of whether a Holder has the right to require the Company to purchase the Notes in accordance with the provisions of Article 15, or (B) the REIT is a party to a consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, or transfer or lease of all or substantially all of its assets (other than a merger effected solely to change the REIT’s jurisdiction of incorporation that does not otherwise constitute a Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change), in each case, pursuant to which the Common Shares would be exchanged into cash, securities or other assets, all or any portion of a Holder’s Notes may be surrendered for exchange at any time from or after the effective date of the transaction or event until 35 Trading Days after such effective date or, if such transaction or event also constitutes a Fundamental Change, until the related Fundamental Change Purchase Date. The Company will notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) no later than the effective date of such transaction or event.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Notes or this Indenture, no Holder of Notes will be entitled to receive Common Shares following exchange of such Notes to the extent that receipt of such Common Shares would cause such Holder to exceed the ownership limits contained in the REIT’s declaration of trust, unless such Holder has been exempted from such limit in the Board of Trustees’ sole discretion in accordance with the REIT’s declaration of trust.

(d) If any delivery of Common Shares owed to a Holder upon exchange of Notes is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of the limitations described in Section 14.01(c), the REIT’s obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished and the Company shall deliver such shares as promptly as practicable after any such exchanging Holder gives notice to the Company that such delivery would not result in a violation of the ownership limit contained in the REIT’s declaration of trust.

(e) Neither the Trustee nor the Exchange Agent shall be responsible for monitoring compliance with Section 14.01(c) or (d) and, absent written direction from the Company to the contrary, may assume that any exchange complies with the limitations set forth therein.

Section 14.02. Exchange Procedure.

(a) Settlement of Accrued Interest and Deemed Payment of Principal. If a Holder exchanges a Note, the Company will not adjust the Exchange Rate to account for any accrued and unpaid interest on such Note and the Company’s delivery of cash and the number of Common Shares into which a Note is exchangeable, together with any cash payment for any fractional Common Shares, will be deemed to satisfy and discharge in full the Company’s obligation to pay the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, such Note to, but excluding, the Exchange Date; provided, however, that if a Holder exchanges a Note after a Regular Record Date and prior to the Open of Business on the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Company will still be obligated to pay the interest due on such Interest Payment Date to the Holder of such Note on such Regular Record Date (provided the Holder makes the interest payment upon exchange if so required by Section 14.02(h)).

As a result, except as otherwise provided in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, any accrued and unpaid interest with respect to an exchanged Note will be deemed to be paid in full rather than canceled, extinguished or forfeited. Upon an exchange of Notes into into cash, and, if applicable, Common Shares, accrued and unpaid interest will be deemed to be paid first out of the cash paid upon such exchange.

(b) Notices. Upon receipt of a Notice of Exchange (as contemplated below), the Exchange Agent shall promptly notify the Company.

(c) Settlement Location. Each Note shall be exchangeable at the office of the Exchange Agent and, if applicable, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.

(d) Notice. To exercise the exchange privilege with respect to a beneficial interest in a Global Note, the Holder must complete the appropriate instruction form for exchange pursuant to the Depositary’s book-entry exchange program, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by the Company or the Exchange Agent, and pay the funds, if any, required by Section 14.02(h) and any taxes or duties if required pursuant to Section 14.02(i), and the Exchange Agent must be informed of the exchange in accordance with the customary practice of the Depositary.

To exercise the exchange privilege with respect to any Physical Notes, the Holder of such Physical Notes shall:

(1) complete and manually sign an exchange notice in the form set forth in the Form of Notice of Exchange (the “Notice of Exchange”) or a facsimile of the Notice of Exchange;

(2) deliver the Notice of Exchange, which is irrevocable, and the Note to the Exchange Agent;

(3) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents;

(4) if required, make any payment required under Section 14.02(h); and

(5) if required, pay all transfer or similar taxes as set forth in Section 14.02(i).

If, upon exchange of a Note, any Common Shares are to be issued to a person other than the Holder of such Note, the related Notice of Exchange shall include such other person’s name and address.

If the Company calls the Notes for redemption pursuant to Article 16, Holders may exchange their Notes at any time prior to the Close of Business on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date. After that time, Holders will no longer have the right to exchange their Notes on account of the Company’s delivery of the relevant Redemption Notice, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, in which case a Holder of the Notes may exchange its Notes until the Redemption Price has been paid or duly provided for.

If a Note is subject to a Fundamental Change Purchase Notice, such Note may not be exchanged unless such Fundamental Change Purchase Notice is withdrawn in accordance with Section 15.04 prior to the relevant Fundamental Change Expiration Time.

For any Note, the first Business Day on which the Holder of such Note satisfies all of the applicable requirements set forth above with respect to such Note and on which exchange of such Note is not otherwise prohibited under this Indenture shall be the “Exchange Date” with respect to such Note.

Each exchange shall be deemed to have been effected as to any such Notes (or portion thereof) surrendered for exchange at the Close of Business on the applicable Exchange Date, and the Person in whose name the certificate for any Common Shares delivered upon exchange is registered shall be treated as a stockholder of record as of the Close of Business on the last VWAP Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period. In no event will a Holder be entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution with respect to any Common Shares issued on exchange of such Holder’s Notes if the last VWAP Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period is after the Record Date for such dividend or distribution.

Subject to the provisions of Section 14.06(b) and Section 14.07(a), the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, the Settlement Amount due in respect of its exchange obligation no later than the second Trading Day immediately following the last VWAP Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period.

If any Common Shares are due to exchanging Holders, the REIT shall issue or cause to be issued, and the Company shall deliver to such Holder, or such Holder’s nominee or nominees, certificates or a book-entry transfer through the Depositary, as the case may be, for the full number of Common Shares to which such Holder shall be entitled in satisfaction of the Company’s exchange obligation.

(e) Endorsement. Any Notes surrendered for exchange shall, unless Common Shares issuable on exchange are to be issued in the same name as the registration of such Notes, be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder or its duly authorized attorney.

(f) Physical Notes. If any Notes in a denomination greater than $1,000 shall be surrendered for partial exchange, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of the Notes so surrendered, without charge, new Notes in authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unexchanged portion of the surrendered Notes.

(g) Global Notes. Upon the exchange of a beneficial interest in Global Notes, the Exchange Agent shall make a notation in its records as to the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any exchanges of Notes effected through any Exchange Agent other than the Trustee.

(h) Interest Due Upon Exchange. If a Holder exchanges a Note after the Close of Business on a Regular Record Date but prior to the Open of Business on the Interest Payment Date corresponding to such Regular Record Date, such Holder must accompany such Note with an amount of cash equal to the amount of interest that will be payable on such Note on the corresponding Interest Payment Date (regardless of whether the exchanging Holder was the Holder of record on the corresponding Regular Record Date); provided, however, that a Holder need not make such payment (1) if the Exchange Date follows the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (2) if the Company has specified a Redemption Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date; (3) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Purchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date; or (4) to the extent of any overdue interest, if any overdue interest exists at the time of exchange with respect to such Note. Therefore, for the avoidance of doubt, all record Holders of Notes on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date, and any Redemption Date or Fundamental Change Purchase Date described in the preceding sentence will receive the full interest payment due on the Maturity Date or other applicable Interest Payment Date regardless of whether their Notes have been exchanged following such Regular Record Date.

(i) Taxes Due upon Exchange. If a Holder exchanges a Note, the Company will pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any Common Shares upon the exchange, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests that any shares be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name, in which case the Holder will pay that tax.

Section 14.03. Settlement Upon Exchange.

(a) Subject to this Section 14.03, Section 14.06(b) and Section 14.07(a), upon exchange of any Note, the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, to the exchanging Holder, in full satisfaction of its delivery obligation upon exchange (the “Exchange Obligation”), cash up to the principal amount of the Note exchanged and, if applicable in respect of any net shares due upon exchange (the “Net Shares”), cash, Common Shares or a combination of cash and Common Shares, together with cash, if applicable, in lieu of delivering any fractional Common Share in accordance with Section 14.03(b), at the Company’s election, as set forth in this Section 14.03 (each such net share settlement method, a “Net Share Settlement Method”).

(1) All exchanges for which the relevant Exchange Date occurs on or after January 1, 2027 or occurs after the Company provides a Redemption Notice and prior to the related Redemption Date shall be settled using the same Net Share Settlement Method (including the same relative proportion of cash and/or Common Shares). Except for any exchanges for which the relevant Exchange Date occurs on or after January 1, 2027 or on or after the Company provides a Redemption Notice and prior to the related Redemption Date, the Company will use the same Net Share Settlement Method (including the same relative proportion of cash and/or Common Shares) for all exchanges with the same Exchange Date, but the Company will not have any obligation to use the same Settlement Method with respect to exchanges with different Exchange Dates.

(2) If the Company elects a Net Share Settlement Method, the Company shall deliver notice to Holders so exchanging through the Exchange Agent of such Net Share Settlement Method the Company has selected no later than the Close of Business on the Trading Day immediately following the related Exchange Date (or (x) in the case of any exchanges for which the relevant Exchange Date occurs on or after January 1, 2027, no later than January 1, 2027 or (y) in the case of any exchanges after the Company issues a Redemption Notice and prior to the related Redemption Date, in the Redemption Notice). If the Company does not timely elect a Net Share Settlement Method, the Company shall no longer have the right to elect a Net Share Settlement Method in respect of its Exchange Obligation and the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be equal to $1,000. If the Company has timely elected a Net Share Settlement Method in respect of any exchange but does not timely notify the Exchange Agent of the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, the Specified Dollar Amount shall be deemed to be $1,000.

(3) The cash, Common Shares or combination of cash and Common Shares payable or deliverable by the Company in respect of any exchange of $1,000 principal amount of the Notes (the “Settlement Amount”) shall include (x) cash up to $1,000 and (y) cash or Common Shares or any combination of cash and Common Shares in respect of the Company’s obligation to deliver the Net Shares, and shall be computed as follows:

(A) if the Company elects to pay solely cash in respect of the Net Shares, the Company shall pay to the exchanging Holder in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being exchanged cash in an amount equal to the sum of the Daily Exchange Values for each of the 40 consecutive VWAP Trading Days during the related Observation Period; and

(B) if the Company elects to deliver Common Shares in respect of some or all of the Net Shares, the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, to the exchanging Holder in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being exchanged a Settlement Amount equal to the sum of the Daily Settlement Amounts for each of the 40 consecutive VWAP Trading Days during the related Observation Period (plus cash in lieu of any fractional Common Share issuable upon exchange).

(4) If more than one Note shall be surrendered for exchange at any one time by the same Holder, the Exchange Obligation with respect to such Notes shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted hereby) so surrendered.

(5) The Daily Settlement Amounts (if applicable) and the Daily Exchange Values (if applicable) shall be determined by the Company promptly following the last VWAP Trading Day of the related Observation Period. Promptly after such determination of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the Daily Exchange Values, as the case may be, and, if applicable, the amount of cash payable in lieu of any fractional Common Share, the Company shall notify the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the Daily Exchange Values, as the case may be, and, if applicable, the amount of cash payable in lieu of fractional Common Shares. The Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) shall have no responsibility for any such determination.

(b) Fractional Shares. The Company shall not issue any fractional Common Shares upon exchange of the Notes and shall instead pay cash in lieu of any fractional Common Share issuable upon exchange in an amount based on the Daily VWAP on the last VWAP Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period. For each Note surrendered for exchange, if the Company has elected (or is deemed to elect) to deliver Common Shares in respect of some or all of the Net Shares, the full number of shares that shall be issued upon exchange thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate Daily Settlement Amounts for the relevant Observation Period and, if applicable, any fractional share remaining after such computation shall be paid in cash.

(c) Notices. Whenever an Exchange Date occurs with respect to a Note, the Exchange Agent will, as promptly as possible, and in no event later than the Business Day immediately following such Exchange Date, deliver to the Company and the Trustee, if it is not then the Exchange Agent, notice that an Exchange Date has occurred, which notice will state such Exchange Date, the principal amount of Notes exchanged on such Exchange Date and the names of the Holders that exchanged Notes on such Exchange Date.

Section 14.04. Adjustment of Exchange Rate. The Exchange Rate will be adjusted as described in this Section 14.04, except that the Company shall not make any adjustment to the Exchange Rate if Holders participate (other than in the case of (x) a share split or share combination or (y) a tender or exchange offer), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Shares and as a result of holding the Notes, in any of the transactions described below without having to exchange their Notes, as if they held a number of Common Shares equal to the applicable Exchange Rate, multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder.

(a) If the REIT exclusively issues Common Shares as a dividend or distribution on all or substantially all Common Shares, or if the REIT effects a share split or share combination, the Exchange Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

ER₁ = ER₀x	OS₁
	OS₀

where,

ER₀	=	the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the Open of Business on the effective date of such share split or combination, as applicable;

ER₁	=	the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or such effective date, as applicable;

OS₀	=	the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or such effective date, as applicable, before giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination, as applicable; and

OS₁	=	the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination, as applicable.

Any adjustment made under this Section 14.04(a) shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the Open of Business on the effective date for such share split or share combination, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 14.04(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Exchange Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Trustees determines not to pay such dividend or distribution to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(b) If the REIT issues to all or substantially all holders of the Common Shares any rights, options or warrants (other than rights issued pursuant to a stockholder rights plan prior to separation of the relevant rights) entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares, at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Shares for the 10 consecutive Trading Day-period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the Exchange Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

ER₁ = ER₀ x	OS₀ + X
	OS₀ + Y

where,

ER₀	=	the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance;

ER₁	=	the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

OS₀	=	the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

X	=	the total number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and

Y	=	the number of Common Shares equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants divided by the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading Day-period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants.

Any increase made under this Section 14.04(b) will be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance. To the extent that such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or Common Shares are not delivered upon the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Exchange Rate shall be readjusted to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of Common Shares actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, or if such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased to be the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such Record Date for such issuance had not occurred.

For purposes of this Section 14.04(b) and Section 14.01(b)(4)(A), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of the Common Shares to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at a price per share less than such average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Shares for the 10 consecutive Trading Day-period ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for such issuance, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such Common Shares, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the REIT for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Trustees.

(c) If the REIT distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness, other assets or property of the REIT or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Shares, excluding: (1) dividends or distributions, rights, options or warrants as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 14.04(a) or Section 14.04(b); (2) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 14.04(d); and (3) Spin-Offs as to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 14.04(c) shall apply; then the Exchange Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

ER₁ = ER₀ x	▇▇_▇
	▇▇_▇ – FMV

where,

ER₀	=	the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

ER₁	=	the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

SP₀	=	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading Day-period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and

FMV	=	the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Trustees in good faith) of the shares of the REIT’s Capital Stock, evidences of the REIT’s indebtedness, other assets, or property of the REIT or rights, options or warrants to acquire the REIT’s Capital Stock or other securities distributed with respect to each outstanding Common Share on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

If “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than the “SP₀” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of Notes shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes it holds, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Shares, the amount and kind of the REIT’s Capital Stock, evidences of the REIT’s indebtedness, other assets or property of the REIT or rights, options or warrants to acquire the REIT’s Capital Stock or other securities that such Holder would have received as if such Holder owned a number of Common Shares equal to the Exchange Rate in effect on the Record Date for the distribution.

Any increase made under the portion of this Section 14.04(c) above will become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased to be the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 14.04(c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Shares of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary of the REIT or other business unit of the REIT, and such Capital Stock or similar equity interest is listed or quoted (or will be listed or quoted upon the consummation of the distribution) on a United States national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Exchange Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

ER₁ = ER₀ x	FMV₀ + MP₀
	MP₀

where,

ER₀	=	the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the end of the Valuation Period (as defined below);

ER₁	=	the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the end of the Valuation Period;

FMV₀	=	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of Common Shares applicable to one Common Share over the first 10 consecutive Trading Day-period after, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”); and

MP₀	=	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Shares over the Valuation Period.

The increase in the Exchange Rate made under the preceding paragraph of this Section 14.04(c) will be determined as of the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period, but will be given effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off; provided that in respect of any exchange of Notes, for any Trading Day that falls within the relevant Observation Period for such exchange and within the Valuation Period, references within this Section 14.04(c) to ten consecutive Trading Days shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off to, and including, such Trading Day in determining the applicable Exchange Rate as of such Trading Day. If any dividend or distribution that constitutes a Spin-Off is declared but not so paid or made, the Exchange Rate shall be immediately decreased, effective as of the date the Board of Trustees determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared or announced. For the avoidance of doubt, if the application of the foregoing formula would result in a decrease in the Exchange Rate, no adjustment to the Exchange Rate will be made (other than with respect to the Company’s right to readjust the Exchange Rate).

For purposes of the second adjustment set forth in this Section 14.04(c), (i) the Last Reported Sale Price of any Capital Stock or similar equity interest shall be calculated in a manner analogous to that used to calculate the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares in the definition of “Last Reported Sale Price” set forth in Section 1.01, (ii) whether a day is a Trading Day (and whether a day is a Scheduled Trading Day and whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred) for such Capital Stock or similar equity interest shall be determined in a manner analogous to that used to determine whether a day is a Trading Day (or whether a day is a Scheduled Trading Day and whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred) for the Common Shares, and (iii) whether a day is a Trading Day to be included in a Valuation Period will be determined based on whether a day is a Trading Day for both the Common Shares and such Capital Stock or similar equity interest.

Subject to Section 14.10, for the purposes of this Section 14.04(c), rights, options or warrants distributed by the REIT to all holders of Common Shares entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of the REIT’s Capital Stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (a “Trigger Event”): (1) are deemed to be transferred with such Common Shares; (2) are not exercisable; and (3) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Common Shares, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 14.04(c), (and no adjustment to the Exchange Rate under this Section 14.04(c) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Exchange Rate shall be made under this Section 14.04(c). If any such right, option or warrant, distributed prior to the Issue Date is subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such right, option or warrant becomes exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and Ex-Dividend Date of such deemed distribution (in which case the original right, option or warrant shall be deemed to terminate and expire on such date without exercise by any of the holders). In addition, in the event of any distribution or deemed distribution of rights, options or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Exchange Rate under this Section 14.04(c) was made, (1) in the case of any such rights, options or warrants which shall all have been redeemed or purchased without exercise by any holders thereof, upon such final redemption or purchase (x) the Exchange Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options or warrants had not been issued and (y) the Exchange Rate shall then again be readjusted to give effect to such distribution, deemed distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or purchase price received by holders of Common Shares with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming each such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants), made to all holders of Common Shares as of the date of such redemption or purchase, and (2) in the case of such rights, options or warrants which shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Exchange Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights and warrants had not been issued.

For purposes of Section 14.04(a), Section 14.04(b) and this Section 14.04(c), if any dividend or distribution to which this Section 14.04(c) applies includes one or both of:

(A) a dividend or distribution of Common Shares to which Section 14.04(a) also applies (the “Clause A Distribution”); or

(B) a dividend or distribution of rights, options or warrants to which Section 14.04(b) also applies (the “Clause B Distribution”), then (i) such dividend or distribution, other than the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, shall be deemed to be a dividend or distribution to which this Section 14.04(c) applies (the “Clause C Distribution”) and any Exchange Rate adjustment required to be made under this Section 14.04(c) with respect to such Clause C Distribution shall be made, (ii) the Clause B Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution and any Exchange Rate adjustment required by Section 14.04(b) with respect thereto shall then be made, except that, if determined by the Company, (A) the “Ex-Dividend Date” of the Clause B Distribution and the Clause A Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to be the Ex-Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution and (B) any Common Shares included in the Clause A Distribution or the Clause B Distribution shall not be deemed to be “outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date” within the meaning of Section 14.04(b), and (iii) the Clause A Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution or the Clause B Distribution, as the case may be, except that, if determined by the Company, (A) the “Ex-Dividend Date” of the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to be the Ex-Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution, and (B) any Common Shares included in the Clause A distribution shall not be deemed to be “outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or such effective date” within the meaning of Section 14.04(a).

(d) If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of the Common Shares, to the extent that the aggregate of all such cash dividends or distributions paid in any fiscal quarter exceeds the dividend threshold amount (the “DTA”), the Exchange Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

ER₁ = ER₀ x	SP₀– DTA
	SP₀ – C

where,

ER₀	=	the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

ER₁	=	the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

SP₀	=	the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

DTA	=	The dividend threshold amount, which will initially be $0.17 per quarter; and

C	=	the amount in cash per share that the REIT distributes to holders of the Common Shares.

The DTA is subject to adjustment on an inversely proportional basis whenever the Exchange Rate is adjusted other than adjustments made pursuant to this Section 14.04(d). If an adjustment is required to be made as set forth in this Section 14.04(d) as a result of a distribution that is not a regular quarterly dividend, the DTA will be deemed to be zero with respect to that particular adjustment.

Any increase made pursuant to this Section 14.04(d) shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Board of Trustees determines not to make or pay such dividend or distribution, to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

If “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP₀” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder shall receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes it holds, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Shares, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned a number of Common Shares equal to the Exchange Rate in effect on the Record Date for such cash dividend or distribution.

(e) If the REIT or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for the Common Shares, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per Common Share exceeds the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (the “Offer Expiration Date”), the Exchange Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

ER₁ = ER₀ x	AC + (SP₁ x OS₁)
	OS₀ x SP₁

where,

ER₀	=	the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Offer Expiration Date;

ER₁	=	the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the Offer Expiration Date;

AC	=	the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Trustees) paid or payable for Common Shares purchased in such tender offer or exchange offer;

OS₀	=	the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the expiration time of the tender or exchange offer on the Offer Expiration Date (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender offer or exchange offer);

OS₁	=	the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after the expiration time of the tender or exchange offer on the Offer Expiration Date (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and

SP₁	=	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading Day-period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date.

The adjustment to the applicable Exchange Rate under the preceding paragraph of this Section 14.04(e) will be given effect at the Open of Business on the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date. For purposes of determining the applicable Exchange Rate in respect of any exchange of Notes, for any Trading Day that falls within the relevant Observation Period for such exchange and within the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date, references within this Section 14.04(e) to “10” or “10th” shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the Offer Expiration Date and such Trading Day in determining the Exchange Rate as of such Trading Day.

(f) Except as stated herein, the Company shall not adjust the Exchange Rate for the issuance of Common Shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares or the right to purchase Common Shares or such convertible or exchangeable securities.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 14, the Exchange Rate shall not be adjusted:

(i) on account of stock repurchases that are not tender offers referred to in Section 14.04(e), including structured or derivative transactions, or transactions pursuant to a stock repurchase program approved by the Board of Trustees or otherwise;

(ii) upon the issuance of any Common Shares pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the REIT’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in Common Shares under any plan;

(iii) upon the issuance of any Common Shares or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan, program or agreement of or assumed by the REIT or any of its Subsidiaries;

(iv) upon the issuance of any Common Shares pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in the preceding clause (iii) and outstanding as of the date the Notes were first issued;

(v) for a change in the par value of the Common Shares;

(vi) for accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes, if any; or

(vii) for an event otherwise requiring an adjustment under this Indenture if such event is not consummated.

(h) All calculations and other determinations under this Article 14 shall be made by the Company and shall be made to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000th) of a share.

(i) For purposes of this Section 14.04, the number of Common Shares at any time outstanding shall not include Common Shares held in the treasury of the REIT or the Company so long as the REIT or the Company, as the case may be, does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on Common Shares held in the treasury of the REIT or the Company, as the case may be, but shall include Common Shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of Common Shares.

(j) Whenever the Exchange Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee (and the Exchange Agent if not the Trustee) an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the Exchange Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received such Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Exchange Rate and may assume without inquiry that the last Exchange Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect.

Section 14.05. Discretionary and Voluntary Adjustments.

(a) Discretionary Adjustments. Whenever any provision of this Indenture requires the Company to calculate the Last Reported Sale Prices over a span of multiple days, the Company will make appropriate adjustments to account for any adjustment to the Exchange Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Exchange Rate where the Effective Date, Ex-Dividend Date, Record Date or Offer Expiration Date of the event occurs, at any time during the period when such Last Reported Sale Prices are to be calculated.

(b) Voluntary Adjustments. To the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the listing standards of The New York Stock Exchange (if the REIT is then listed on The New York Stock Exchange), the Company is permitted to increase the Exchange Rate of the Notes by any amount for a period of at least 20 Business Days if the Board of Trustees determines that such increase would be in the Company’s best interest. Subject to the listing standards of The New York Stock Exchange (if the REIT is then listed on The New York Stock Exchange), the Company may also (but is not required to) increase the Exchange Rate to avoid or diminish income tax to holders of Common Shares or rights to purchase Common Shares in connection with a dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) or similar event.

Section 14.06. Increased Exchange Rate Applicable to Certain Notes Surrendered in Connection with Make-Whole Fundamental Changes or Notices of Redemption. (a) If the Effective Date of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs prior to the Maturity Date or the Company gives a Redemption Notice with respect to any or all of the Notes as provided for in Article 16 and, in each case, a Holder elects to exchange its Notes in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change or during the related Redemption Period, as the case may be, the Company shall, under certain circumstances, increase the Exchange Rate for the Notes so surrendered for exchange by a number of additional Common Shares (the “Additional Shares”), as described in this Section 14.06. An exchange of Notes shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” a Make-Whole Fundamental Change if the relevant Exchange Date occurs during the period from, and including, the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately prior to the related Fundamental Change Purchase Date (or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for the exclusion in section (i) of clause (2) of the definition thereof, the 35th Trading Day immediately following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change) (such period, the “Make-Whole Fundamental Change Period”). An exchange of Notes will be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” a Redemption Notice if the relevant Exchange Date occurs during the Redemption Period.

(b) Upon surrender of Notes for exchange in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or during a Redemption Period, the Company shall fulfill its Exchange Obligation in accordance with Section 14.02; provided, however, that if, at the effective time of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (2) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Reference Property following such Make-Whole Fundamental Change is composed entirely of cash, for any exchange of Notes following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Exchange Obligation shall be calculated based solely on the Share Price for the transaction and shall be deemed to be an amount of cash per $1,000 principal amount of exchanged Notes equal to the Exchange Rate (including any adjustment for Additional Shares), multiplied by such Share Price. In such event, the Exchange Obligation shall be paid to Holders in cash on the Business Day following the Exchange Date. The Company shall notify the Holders of Notes of the Effective Date of any Make-Whole Fundamental Change no later than such Effective Date.

(c) The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Exchange Rate will be increased for a Holder that exchanges its Notes in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or a Redemption Notice shall be determined by reference to the table below, based on the date on which the Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective or the date of the Redemption Notice (in each case, the “Effective Date”) and the price (the “Share Price”) paid (or deemed to be paid) per Common Share in the Make-Whole Fundamental Change or determined with respect to the Redemption Notice, as the case may be. If the holders of the Common Shares receive in exchange for their Common Shares only cash in a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (2) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Share Price will be the cash amount paid per Common Share. Otherwise, the Share Price will be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Shares over the five consecutive Trading Day-period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change or the Redemption Notice, as the case may be. In the event an exchange in connection with a Redemption Notice would also be deemed to be in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, a Holder of the Notes to be exchanged shall be entitled to a single increase to the Exchange Rate with respect to the first to occur of (i) the applicable date of the Redemption Notice or (ii) the Effective Date of the applicable Make-Whole Fundamental Change, and the later event will be deemed not to have occurred for purposes of such exchanged Notes.

(d) The Share Prices set forth in the column headings of the table below shall be adjusted as of any date on which the Exchange Rate of the Notes is otherwise required to be adjusted. The adjusted Share Prices shall equal the Share Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Exchange Rate immediately prior to such adjustment giving rise to the Share Price adjustment and the denominator of which is the Exchange Rate as so adjusted. The number of Additional Shares set forth in such table shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the Exchange Rate is required to be adjusted as set forth in Section 14.04.

(e) The following table sets forth the number of Additional Shares by which the Exchange Rate shall be increased per $1,000 principal amount of Notes pursuant to this Section 14.06 for each Share Price and Effective Date set forth below:

	Share Price
Effective Date	$20.17		$22.00		$24.00		$25.21		$27.00		$30.00		$32.78		$35.00		$40.00
March 17, 2021		9.9157		7.4127		5.3129		4.2975		3.0767		1.6227		0.7694		0.3440		0.0000
April 1, 2022		9.9157		7.3418		5.2213		4.2003		2.9800		1.5400		0.7084		0.3026		0.0000
April 1, 2023		9.9157		7.2027		5.0592		4.0353		2.8207		1.4097		0.6159		0.2423		0.0000
April 1, 2024		9.9157		7.0586		4.8696		3.8346		2.6215		1.2437		0.4991		0.1691		0.0000
April 1, 2025		9.9157		6.9005		4.6192		3.5589		2.3404		1.0117		0.3441		0.0820		0.0000
April 1, 2026		9.9157		6.5300		4.0596		2.9564		1.7530		0.5793		0.1086		0.0000		0.0000
April 1, 2027		9.9157		5.7918		2.0038		0.0000		0.0000		0.0000		0.0000		0.0000		0.0000

The exact Share Prices and Effective Dates may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:

(i) If the Share Price is between two Share Prices in the table or the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates in the table, the number of Additional Shares by which the Exchange Rate will be increased shall be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the next higher and next lower Share Prices and the earlier and later Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year.

(ii) If the Share Price is greater than $20.17 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Share Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant to Section 14.06(d) hereof), the Exchange Rate shall not be increased.

(iii) If the Share Price is less than $40.00 per share (subject to adjustments in the same manner as the Share Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant to Section 14.06(d) hereof), the Exchange Rate shall not be increased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the Exchange Rate be increased on account of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change to exceed 49.5785 Common Shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, subject to adjustments in the same manner as the Exchange Rate is required to be adjusted as set forth in Section 14.04 hereof.

Section 14.07. Effect of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes of the Common Shares.

(a) In the case of:

(i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Shares (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a split, subdivision or combination for which an adjustment was made pursuant to Section 14.04(a));

(ii) any consolidation, merger or combination involving the Company or the REIT;

(iii) any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety; or

(iv) any statutory share exchange involving the REIT;

in each case, as a result of which the Common Shares would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Merger Event” and any such stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof), “Reference Property”) then the Company, the REIT or the successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, will execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing that, at and after the effective time of such Merger Event, the right to exchange each $1,000 principal amount of Notes based on a number of Common Shares equal to the applicable Exchange Rate will, without the consent of the Holders, be changed into a right to exchange each $1,000 principal amount of Notes based on a number of Units of Reference Property equal to the applicable Exchange Rate and, prior to or at the effective time of such Merger Event, the Company or the successor or purchasing person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing for such change in the right to exchange each $1,000 principal amount of Notes. However, at and after the effective time of such Merger Event:

(A) the Company shall continue to have the right to determine the form of consideration to be paid or delivered, as the case may be, in respect of its Net Share obligation upon exchange of Notes in accordance with Section 14.03; and

(B) (i) any amount payable in cash upon exchange of the Notes in accordance with Section 14.03 shall continue to be payable in cash, (ii) any Common Shares that the Company would have been required to deliver upon exchange of the Notes in accordance with Section 14.03 shall instead be deliverable in the type and amount of Reference Property that a holder of that number of Common Shares would have received in such Merger Event and (iii) the Daily VWAP shall be calculated based on the value of a unit of Reference Property that a holder of one Common Share would have received in such Merger Event; provided, however, that if the holders of Common Shares receive only cash in such Merger Event, then for all exchanges that occur after the effective date of such Merger Event (x) the consideration due upon exchange of each $1,000 principal aggregate amount of Notes shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Exchange Rate in effect on the Exchange Date (as may be increased by any Additional Shares pursuant to Section 14.06), multiplied by the Share Price in such Merger Event and (y) settlement will occur on the second Business Day immediately following the Exchange Date.

If the Merger Event causes the Common Shares to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of shareholder election), the amount and type of Reference Property that a holder of Common Shares would have been entitled to receive in such Merger Event (and for which the Notes will be exchangeable) will be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of Common Shares. The Company shall notify, in writing, the Holders, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) of the weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made.

The Company shall not become a party to any Merger Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 14.07. Such supplemental indenture described in the second immediately preceding paragraph shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent to the adjustments provided for in this Article 14 in the judgment of the Board of Trustees or the board of directors of the successor person. If, in the case of any such Merger Event, the Reference Property receivable thereupon by a holder of Common Shares includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) of a person other than the successor or purchasing person, as the case may be, in such Merger Event, then such supplemental indenture shall also be executed by such other person.

(b) The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed to each Holder, at the address of such Holder as it appears on the register of the Notes maintained by the Note Registrar, within 20 days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture. The above provisions of this Section 14.07 shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events.

(c) If the Notes become exchangeable into Reference Property, the Company shall notify the Trustee and issue a press release containing the relevant information, disclose the relevant information in a Current Report on Form 8-K or post such information on the Company’s website.

(d) In connection with any Merger Event, the DTA will subject to adjustment as described in clause (1), clause (2) or clause (3) below, as the case may be.

(1) In the case of a Merger Event in which the Reference Property is composed entirely of shares of common stock (the “Merger Event Common Stock”), the DTA at and after the effective time of such Merger Event will be equal to (x) the DTA immediately prior to the effective time of such Merger Event, divided by (y) the number of shares of Merger Event Common Stock that a holder of one Common Share would receive in such Merger Event (such quotient rounded down to nearest cent).

(2) In the case of a Merger Event in which the Reference Property is composed in part of shares of Merger Event Common Stock, the DTA at and after the effective time of such Merger Event will be equal to (x) the DTA immediately prior to the effective time of such Merger Event, multiplied by (y) the Valuation Percentage for such Merger Event (such quotient rounded down to the nearest cent).

(3) For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of a Merger Event in which the Reference Property is composed entirely of consideration other than shares of common stock, the DTA at and after the effective time of such Reorganization Event will be equal to zero.

(e) For purposes of subsection (d) of this Section 14.07, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

(1) The “Valuation Percentage” for any Merger Event shall be equal to (x) the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of one share of such Merger Event Common Stock over the relevant Merger Event Valuation Period (determined as if references to “Common Shares” in the definition of “Last Reported Sale Price” were references to the “Merger Event Common Stock” for such Merger Event), divided by (y) the arithmetic average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of one Common Share over the relevant Merger Event Valuation Period.

(2) The “Merger Event Valuation Period” for any Merger Event means the five consecutive Trading Day period immediately preceding, but excluding, the effective date for such Merger Event.

Section 14.08. Certain Covenants. (a) The REIT covenants that all Common Shares that may be issued upon exchange of Notes shall be newly issued shares or treasury shares, shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and shall be free from preemptive rights and free from any tax, lien or charge (other than those created by the Holder or due to a change in registered owner).

(b) The REIT covenants that, if any Common Shares to be provided for the purpose of exchange of Notes hereunder require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such Common Shares may be validly issued upon exchange, the REIT will, to the extent then permitted by the rules and interpretations of the Commission, secure such registration or approval, as the case may be.

(c) The REIT further covenants that it shall list or cause to have quoted any Common Shares to be issued upon exchange of the Notes on each national securities exchange or over-the-counter or other domestic market on which the Common Shares are then listed or quoted.

(d) To the extent necessary to satisfy its obligations under this Indenture, prior to issuing any Common Shares, the REIT will reserve out of its authorized but unissued Common Shares a sufficient number of Common Shares to permit the exchange of the Notes.

(e) The REIT shall provide, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares or shares held in treasury, sufficient Common Shares to provide for exchange of the Notes from time to time as such Notes are presented for exchange (assuming that at the time of computation of such number of shares, all such Notes would be exchanged by a single Holder).

Section 14.09. Responsibility of Trustee. The Trustee and any Exchange Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Notes to determine or calculate the Exchange Rate, to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the Exchange Rate, to confirm the accuracy of any such adjustment when made or the appropriateness of the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same or to make any determinations with respect to the ownership limit in the REIT’s declaration of trust. The Trustee and any other Exchange Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Common Shares or of any other securities or property that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the exchange of any Notes; and the Trustee and the Exchange Agent make no representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any Exchange Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any Common Shares or stock certificates or other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Notes for the purpose of exchange or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained in this Article 14. The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including without limitation its right to be compensated, reimbursed, and indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, including its capacity as Exchange Agent.

Section 14.10. Poison Pill. Whenever a Holder exchanges a Note, to the extent that the REIT has a rights plan in effect, the Holder exchanging such Note will receive, in addition to any Common Shares otherwise received in connection with such exchange, the rights under the rights plan unless the rights have separated from the Common Shares, in which case, and only in such case, the Exchange Rate will be adjusted at the time of separation as if the REIT distributed to all holders of the Common Shares, shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants as described in Section 14.04(c), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

Section 14.11. Ownership Limit. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Notes, no Holders of Notes shall be entitled to exchange such Notes for Common Shares to the extent that receipt of such shares would cause such Holder (or any other Person) to exceed the ownership limit contained in Article VII of the Articles of Amendment and Restatement of Declaration of Trust dated as of June 26, 2014, filed with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland, as amended to the date hereof and as may be further amended, supplemented or restated from time to time. The Trustee shall have no obligation for monitoring ownership limits upon the transfer or exchange of Notes.

Section 14.12. Deferral of Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company will not be required to adjust the Exchange Rate unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent; provided, however, that any such minor adjustments that are not required to be made will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment, and provided, further, that any such adjustment of less than one percent that has not been made shall be made upon the occurrence of (i) the Effective Date for any Make-Whole Fundamental Change; (ii) the Company’s giving of a Redemption Notice pursuant to Article 16; and (iii) any exchange of Notes. In addition, the Company shall not account for such deferrals when determining whether any of the conditions to exchange have been satisfied or what number of Common Shares a Holder would have held on a given day had it exchanged its Notes.

Section 14.13. Limitation on Adjustments. Except as stated in Section 14.04, the Company will not adjust the Exchange Rate for the issuance of shares of Common Shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Shares or the right to purchase Common Shares or such convertible or exchangeable securities. If, however, the application of the formulas in Sections 14.04(a) through (e) would result in a decrease in the Exchange Rate, then, except to the extent of any readjustment to the Exchange Rate, no adjustment to the Exchange Rate will be made (other than as a result of a reverse share split, share combination or readjustment).

Section 14.14. Notice to Holders. i) The Notice to Holders Prior to Certain Actions. The Company shall deliver notices of the events specified below at the times specified below and containing the information specified below unless, in each case, (i) pursuant to the Indenture, the Company is already required to deliver notice of such event containing at least the information specified below at an earlier time or, (ii) the Company, at the time it is required to deliver a notice, does not have knowledge of all of the information required to be included in such notice, in which case, the Company shall (A) deliver notice at such time containing only the information that it has knowledge of at such time (if it has knowledge of any such information at such time), and (B) promptly upon obtaining knowledge of any such information not already included in a notice delivered by the Company, deliver notice to each Holder containing such information. In each case, the failure by the Company to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event.

(i) Issuances, Distributions, and Dividends and Distributions. If the Company or the REIT: (A) announces any issuance of any rights, options or warrants that would require an adjustment in the Exchange Rate pursuant to Section 14.04(b); (B) authorizes any distribution that would require an adjustment in the Exchange Rate pursuant to Section 14.04(c) hereof (including any separation of rights from the Common Shares described in Section 14.10); or (C) announces any dividend or distribution that would require an adjustment in the Exchange Rate pursuant to Section 14.04(d), then the Company shall deliver to the Holders, as promptly as possible, but in any event at least 15 calendar days prior to the applicable Ex-Dividend Date, notice describing such issuance, distribution, dividend or distribution, as the case may be, and stating the expected Ex-Dividend Date and Record Date for such issuance, distribution, dividend or distribution, as the case may be. In addition, the Company shall deliver to the Holders notice if the consideration included in such issuance, distribution, dividend or distribution, or the Ex-Dividend Date or Record Date of such issuance, distribution, dividend or distribution, as the case may be, changes.

(ii) Voluntary Increases. If the Company increases the Exchange Rate pursuant to Section 14.05(b), the Company shall deliver notice to the Holders at least 15 calendar days prior to the date on which such increase will become effective, which notice shall state the date on which such increased will become effective and the amount by which the Exchange Rate will be increased.

(iii) Dissolutions, Liquidations and Winding-Ups. If there is a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company or the REIT, the Company shall deliver notice to the Holders as promptly as possible, but in any event at least 15 calendar days prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which such dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, as the case may be, is expected to become effective or occur, and (ii) the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for securities or other property deliverable upon such dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, as the case may be, which notice shall state the expected effective date and Record Date for such event, as applicable, and the amount and kind of property that a holder of one Common Share is expected to be entitled, or may elect, to receive in such event. The Company shall deliver an additional notice to holders, as promptly as practicable, whenever the expected effective date or Record Date, as applicable, or the amount and kind of property that a holder of one Common Share is expected to be entitled to receive in such event, changes.

(b) Notices After Certain Actions and Events. Whenever an adjustment to the Exchange Rate becomes effective pursuant to Section 14.04, 14.05 or 14.06 hereof, the Company will (i) file with the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such adjustment has become effective, the Exchange Rate, and the manner in which the adjustment was computed and (ii) deliver notice to the Holders stating that such adjustment has become effective and the Exchange Rate or exchange privilege as adjusted. Failure to give any such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of any such adjustment.

ARTICLE 15
REPURCHASE OF NOTES AT OPTION OF HOLDERS

Section 15.01. [Reserved.]

Section 15.02. Purchase at Option of Holders Upon a Fundamental Change. (a) If a Fundamental Change occurs, then each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to purchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes, or any portion thereof such that the remaining principal amount of each Note that is not purchased in full equals $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, on a date (the “Fundamental Change Purchase Date”) specified by the Company that is not less than 20 calendar days or more than 35 calendar days following the date on which the Company delivers the Fundamental Change Company Notice, at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change Purchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Purchase Price”); provided, however, that if the Company purchases a Note on a Fundamental Change Purchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Interest Payment Date corresponding to such Regular Record Date, the Company shall instead pay such accrued and unpaid interest on such Note on the Interest Payment Date to the Holder of record of such Note as of such Regular Record Date.

Purchases of Notes under this Section 15.02 shall be made, at the option of the Holder thereof, upon:

(i) if the Notes to be purchased are Physical Notes, delivery to the Paying Agent by the Holder of a duly completed notice (the “Fundamental Change Purchase Notice”) in the form set forth in Attachment 2 to the Form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A and of the Notes, duly endorsed for transfer, on or before the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, subject to extensions to comply with applicable law (the “Fundamental Change Expiration Time”); and

(ii) if the Notes to be purchased are Global Notes, delivery of the Notes, by book-entry transfer, in compliance with the Applicable Procedures and the satisfaction of any other requirements of the Depositary in connection with tendering beneficial interests in a Global Note for purchase, by the Fundamental Change Expiration Time.

The Fundamental Change Purchase Notice in respect of any Notes to be purchased shall state:

(i) if certificated, the certificate numbers of such Notes;

(ii) the portion of the principal amount of such Notes, which must be such that the principal amount that is not to be purchased of each Note that is not to be purchased in full equals $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof; and

(iii) that such Notes are to be purchased by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Notes and this Indenture.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to the Paying Agent the Fundamental Change Purchase Notice contemplated by this Section 15.02 shall have the right to withdraw, in whole or in part, such Fundamental Change Purchase Notice at any time prior to the Fundamental Change Expiration Time by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 15.04.

The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Fundamental Change Purchase Notice or written notice of withdrawal thereof.

(b) On or before the 20th calendar day after the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Company shall provide to all Holders of the Notes, the Trustee, the Exchange Agent and the Paying Agent (in the case of any Exchange Agent or Paying Agent other than the Trustee) a notice (the “Fundamental Change Company Notice”) of the occurrence of such Fundamental Change and of the purchase right at the option of the Holders arising as a result thereof. Such notice shall be sent by first class mail or, in the case of any Global Notes, in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary for providing notices. Simultaneously with providing such Fundamental Change Company Notice, the Company shall publish a press release containing this information or publish this information on the Company’s website or through such other public medium as the Company may use at that time.

Each Fundamental Change Company Notice shall specify:

(i) the events causing the Fundamental Change;

(ii) the date of the Fundamental Change;

(iii) the last date on which a Holder of Notes may exercise the purchase right pursuant to this Article 15;

(iv) the Fundamental Change Purchase Price;

(v) the Fundamental Change Purchase Date;

(vi) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Exchange Agent, if applicable;

(vii) the applicable Exchange Rate and any adjustments to the applicable Exchange Rate;

(viii) that the Notes with respect to which a Fundamental Change Purchase Notice has been delivered by a Holder may be exchanged only if the Holder withdraws the Fundamental Change Purchase Notice in accordance with this Indenture;

(ix) that the Holder shall have the right to withdraw any Notes surrendered for purchase prior to the Fundamental Change Expiration Time; and

(x) the procedures that Holders must follow to require the Company to purchase their Notes.

No failure of the Company to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein shall limit the purchase rights of the Holders of Notes or affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes pursuant to this Section 15.02.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to deliver a Fundamental Change Company Notice or to purchase any Notes upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change if the Company has delivered a Redemption Notice for all of the Notes in accordance with Section 16.02, unless and until there is a default in the payment of the Redemption Price.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no purchase of any Notes pursuant to this Section 15.02 if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Fundamental Change Purchase Date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Purchase Price with respect to such Notes). The Paying Agent will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes held by it during the acceleration of the Notes (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Purchase Price with respect to such Notes) and shall deem to be canceled any instructions for book-entry transfer of the Notes in compliance with the procedures of the Depositary, in which case, upon such return or cancellation, as the case may be, the Fundamental Change Purchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn.

Section 15.03. Effect of Fundamental Change Purchase Notice. Upon receipt by the Paying Agent of a Fundamental Change Purchase Notice specified in Section 15.02, the Holder of the Note in respect of which such Fundamental Change Purchase Notice was given shall (unless such Fundamental Change Purchase Notice is withdrawn in accordance with Section 15.04) thereafter be entitled to receive solely the Fundamental Change Purchase Price in cash with respect to such Note (and any previously accrued and unpaid interest on such Note). Such Fundamental Change Purchase Price shall be paid to such Holder, subject to receipt of funds by the Paying Agent, on the later of (x) the applicable Fundamental Change Purchase Date (provided the conditions in Section 15.02 have been satisfied) and (y) the time of delivery or book-entry transfer of such Note to the Paying Agent by the Holder thereof in the manner required by Section 15.02, subject in each case to extensions to comply with applicable law.

Section 15.04. Withdrawal of Fundamental Change Purchase Notice. A Fundamental Change Purchase Notice may be withdrawn (in whole or in part) by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Paying Agent in accordance with the Fundamental Change Company Notice at any time prior to the Fundamental Change Expiration Time, specifying:

(1) the principal amount of the Notes with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted;

(2) if Physical Notes have been issued, the certificate numbers of the withdrawn Notes; and

(3) the principal amount, if any, of each Note that remains subject to the Fundamental Change Purchase Notice, which must be such that the principal amount not to be purchased equals $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof;

provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the notice must comply with Applicable Procedures.

The Paying Agent will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes with respect to which a Fundamental Change Purchase Notice has been withdrawn in compliance with the provisions of this Section 15.04.

Section 15.05. Deposit of Fundamental Change Purchase Price. Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust as provided herein) an amount of money (in immediately available funds if deposited on such Business Day) sufficient to pay the Fundamental Change Purchase Price of all the Notes or portions thereof that are to be purchased as of the Fundamental Change Purchase Date. If the Paying Agent holds cash sufficient to pay the Fundamental Change Purchase Price of the Notes that have been properly surrendered for purchase and not validly withdrawn and for which a Fundamental Change Purchase Notice has been tendered and not withdrawn in accordance with this Indenture on the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, then as of such Fundamental Change Purchase Date, (a) such Notes will cease to be outstanding and interest will cease to accrue thereon (whether or not book-entry transfer of such Notes is made or whether or not such Notes have been delivered to the Paying Agent) and (b) all other rights of the Holders in respect thereof will terminate (other than the right to receive the Fundamental Change Purchase Price and previously accrued and unpaid interest thereon upon delivery or book-entry transfer of such Notes).

Section 15.06. Notes Purchased in Whole or in Part. Any Note that is to be purchased, whether in whole or in part, shall be surrendered at the office of the Paying Agent (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires in the case of Physical Notes, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note, without service charge, a new Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to, and in exchange for, the portion of the principal amount of the Note so surrendered that is not purchased.

Section 15.07. Covenant to Comply with Applicable Laws Upon Purchase of Notes. In connection with any offer to purchase Notes under Section 15.02, the Company shall, in each case if required by law, (i) comply with Rule 13e-4, Rule 14e-1 and any other tender offer and other applicable rules under the Exchange Act that may then be applicable, (ii) file a Schedule TO or any other required schedule under the Exchange Act and (iii) otherwise comply with all U.S. federal and state securities laws applicable to the Company in connection with such purchase offer, in each case, so as to permit the rights and obligations under Section 15.02 to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified in Section 15.02. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations enacted or adopted after the date on which the Notes are first issued conflict with the provisions of this Indenture relating to the obligations of the Company to purchase the Notes upon a Fundamental Change, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under such provisions of this Indenture by virtue of such conflict. In such event, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the purchase of the Notes complies with applicable securities laws and regulations.

Section 15.08. Repayment to the Company. To the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 15.05 exceeds the aggregate Fundamental Change Purchase Price of the Notes or portions thereof that the Company is obligated to purchase as of the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, then, following the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, the Paying Agent shall promptly return any such excess to the Company.

On or after April 5, 2025, the Company may redeem (an “Optional Redemption”) for cash all or a portion of the Notes, at the Redemption Price, if the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Shares has been at least 130% of the Exchange Price then in effect for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive Trading Day-period (including the last Trading Day of such period) ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides the Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 16.02.

Section 16.02. Notice of Optional Redemption; Selection of Notes. (a) In case the Company exercises its Optional Redemption right to redeem all or, as the case may be, any part of the Notes pursuant to Section 16.01, it shall fix a date for redemption (each, a “Redemption Date”) and it or, at its written request received by the Trustee not less than 65 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Redemption Date (or such shorter period of time as may be acceptable to the Trustee), the Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of the Company, shall give or cause to be given a notice of such Optional Redemption (a “Redemption Notice”) not less than 50 nor more than 60 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Redemption Date mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid or, in the case of any Global Notes, in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary for providing notices, to each Holder of Notes so to be redeemed as a whole or in part at its last address as the same appears on the Note Register; provided, however, that, if the Company shall give such notice, it shall also give written notice of the Redemption Date to the Trustee. The Redemption Date must be a Business Day and may not fall on or after the date that is 180 calendar days immediately prior to the Maturity Date. At the Company’s request, a Redemption Notice shall be given by the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Company, with the notice information required under Section 16.02(c) delivered to the Trustee at least two Business Days before such notice is to be given to the Holders (unless a shorter period shall be acceptable to the Trustee). The election of the Company to redeem any Notes pursuant to Section 16.01 shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. The Company shall not less than 45 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee in writing of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed. The Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with the conditions to such redemption no later than the date the Redemption Notice is given pursuant to this Section 16.02.

(b) The Redemption Notice, if mailed in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such Redemption Notice or any defect in the Redemption Notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note.

(i) the Redemption Date;

(ii) the Redemption Price;

(iii) that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note to be redeemed, and that interest thereon, if any, shall cease to accrue on and after the Redemption Date;

(iv) the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price;

(v) that Holders may surrender their Notes for exchange at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date unless the Company fails to pay the Redemption Price (in which case a Holder may exchange such Notes until the Redemption Price has been duly paid or duly provided for);

(vi) the procedures an exchanging Holder must follow to exchange its Notes;

(vii) the Exchange Rate and, if applicable, the number of Additional Shares added to the Exchange Rate in accordance with Section 14.06;

(viii) whether the Company will pay or deliver cash, Common Shares or a combination of cash and Common Shares in respect of all or any portion of its Net Shares obligation upon exchange and the related Specified Dollar Amount;

(x) in case any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed and on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, a new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof shall be issued.

A Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable.

(d) If the Company redeems fewer than all of the outstanding Notes, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee (in principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) by lot or pro rata basis, and in accordance with Applicable Procedures. If any Note selected for partial redemption is submitted for exchange in part after such selection, the portion of the Note submitted for exchange shall be deemed (so far as may be possible) to be the portion selected for redemption.

Section 16.03. Payment of Notes Called for Redemption. (a) If any Redemption Notice has been given in respect of the Notes in accordance with Section 16.02, the Notes shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the place or places stated in the Redemption Notice and at the applicable Redemption Price. On presentation and surrender of the Notes at the place or places stated in the Redemption Notice, the Notes shall be paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable Redemption Price.

(b) Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent or, if the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 4.04 an amount of cash (in immediately available funds if deposited on the Redemption Date), sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of all of the Notes to be redeemed on such Redemption Date. Subject to receipt of funds by the Paying Agent, payment for the Notes to be redeemed shall be made promptly after the later of:

(i) the Redemption Date for such Notes; and

(ii) the time of presentation of such Note to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) by the Holder thereof in the manner required by this Section 16.03.

(c) Upon surrender of a Note that is to be redeemed in part only pursuant to Section 16.01, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new Note in an authorized denomination equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Note surrendered, without payment of any service charge.

Section 16.04. Restrictions on Redemption. The Company may not redeem any Notes on any date if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Redemption Date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Redemption Price with respect to such Notes).

Section 16.05. No Sinking Fund. The Notes will not have the benefit of a sinking fund.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]

KITE REALTY GROUP, L.P.

0.75% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2027

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its 0.75% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”), initially limited to the aggregate principal amount of $175,000,000 (or up to $200,000,000 if the Initial Purchasers exercise their option granted pursuant to the Purchase Agreement to purchase additional Notes in full) all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of March 22, 2021 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the REIT and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Trustee”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company, the REIT and the Holders of the Notes. Additional Notes may be issued in an unlimited aggregate principal amount, subject to certain conditions specified in the Indenture. Capitalized terms used in this Note and not defined in this Note shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Indenture.

In case certain Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of, and interest on, all Notes may be declared, by either the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, and upon said declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions and certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments and deliveries in respect of the Fundamental Change Purchase Price on the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, the Redemption Price on any Redemption Date and the principal amount on the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the Holder who surrenders a Note to a Paying Agent to collect such payments in respect of the Note. The Company will pay cash amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company, the REIT and the Trustee in certain circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, and in certain other circumstances, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute supplemental indentures modifying the terms of the Indenture and the Notes as described therein. It is also provided in the Indenture that, subject to certain exceptions, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default under the Indenture and its consequences.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, if applicable) of, accrued and unpaid interest on, and the consideration due upon exchange of, this Note at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the lawful money herein prescribed.

Ex A - 5

The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $1,000 principal amount and integral multiples thereof. At the office or agency of the Company referred to on the face hereof, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations, without payment of any service charge but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer or similar tax that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes issued upon such exchange of Notes being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such exchange.

The Notes shall be redeemable at the Company’s option in accordance with the terms and conditions specified in the Indenture.

Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Holder has the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes or any portion thereof (in principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof) on the Fundamental Change Purchase Date at a price equal to the Fundamental Change Purchase Price.

Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder hereof has the right, at its option, during certain periods and upon the occurrence of certain conditions specified in the Indenture, prior to the Close of Business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, to exchange any Notes or portion thereof that is $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, for cash and, if applicable, Common Shares, if any, together with cash in lieu thereof in respect of any fractional shares, at the Exchange Rate specified in the Indenture, as adjusted from time to time as provided in the Indenture.

In addition to the rights provided to Holders of Notes under the Indenture, Holders shall have all the rights set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of March 22, 2021, among the Company, the REIT and the Initial Purchasers named therein.
