as Representatives of the several Underwriters

Ladies and Gentlemen:

American Campus Communities Operating Partnership LP, a Maryland limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) proposes to issue and sell to the several underwriters named in Schedule I hereto (the “Underwriters”), for whom you (the “Representatives”) are acting as representatives, $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Operating Partnership’s 2.850% Senior Notes due 2030 (the “Notes”). The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed as to payment of the principal thereof, and premium, if any, and interest thereon (the “Guarantee”, and together with the Notes, the “Securities”) by American Campus Communities, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”). The Securities will be issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of April 2, 2013 and as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 2, 2013 and the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 21, 2019, each as among the Operating Partnership, as issuer, the Company, as guarantor, and U.S. Bank as trustee (the “Trustee”) (together, the “Indenture”).

To the extent there are no additional Underwriters listed on Schedule I other than you, the term Representatives as used herein shall mean you, as Underwriters, and the terms Representatives and Underwriters shall mean either the singular or plural as the context requires.

The Company and the Operating Partnership have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) an “automatic shelf registration statement,” as defined under Rule 405 (“Rule 405”) of the rules and regulations (the “1933 Act Regulations”) of the Commission promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), on Form S-3ASR (Nos. 333-224947 and 333-224947-01), including the related base prospectus,

covering the registration of shares of common stock of the Company, shares of preferred stock of the Company, warrants to purchase shares of common stock or preferred stock of the Company and debt securities of the Operating Partnership (including the Notes), which may be guaranteed by the Company (including the Guarantee), and the offer and sale thereof from time to time in accordance with Rule 415 of the 1933 Act Regulations. Such registration statement, and any post-effective amendment thereto, became effective upon filing with the Commission in accordance with Rule 462(e) of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 462(e)”). Promptly after execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Operating Partnership will prepare and file a prospectus supplement relating to the Securities in accordance with the provisions of Rule 430B of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 430B”) and paragraph (b) of Rule 424 of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 424(b)”). Any information included in such prospectus supplement that was omitted from such registration statement at the time it became effective but that is deemed to be part of and included in such registration statement pursuant to Rule 430B is referred to herein as “Rule 430B Information.” Each base prospectus and prospectus supplement used in connection with the offering of the Securities that omitted Rule 430B Information, including the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act prior to the time of execution of this Agreement, are referred to herein collectively as a “preliminary prospectus.” Such registration statement, at any given time, including any amendments thereto to such time, the exhibits and any schedules thereto at such time, the documents incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act at such time and the documents otherwise deemed to be a part thereof or included therein by the 1933 Act Regulations, is herein referred to as the “Registration Statement”; provided, however, that “Registration Statement” without reference to a time means the Registration Statement as of the time of the first contract of sale for the Securities, which time shall be considered the “new effective date” of the Registration Statement with respect to the Underwriters and the Securities (within the meaning of Rule 430B(f)(2)). The final base prospectus and the final prospectus supplement, in the form first furnished or made available to the Underwriters for use in connection with the offering of the Securities, including the documents incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act prior to the time of the execution of this Agreement, are referred to herein collectively as the “Prospectus.” For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing shall be deemed to include the copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (“▇▇▇▇▇”).

All references in this Agreement to financial statements and schedules and other information which is “contained,” “included,” “disclosed,” “described” or “stated” in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package (as defined herein) (or other references of like import) shall be deemed to include all such financial statements and schedules and other information which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in or otherwise deemed by 1933 Act Regulations to be a part of or included in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package, as the case may be, prior to the execution of this Agreement; and all references in this Agreement to amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package shall be deemed to include the filing of any document under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the

“1934 Act”), which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in or otherwise deemed by the 1933 Act Regulations to be a part of or included in the Registration Statement, such preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package, as the case may be, at or after the execution of this Agreement.

1. Representations and Warranties. Each of the Company, the Operating Partnership and American Campus Communities Holdings, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“ACCHL”, and together with the Company and the Operating Partnership, the “Transaction Entities”), jointly and severally represents and warrants to, and agrees with, each Underwriter as of the date hereof, as of the Applicable Time (as defined below) and as of the Closing Date, as follows:

(a) The Operating Partnership and the Company meet the requirements for use of an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 under the 1933 Act. The Registration Statement was filed by the Operating Partnership and the Company with the Commission not earlier than three years prior to the date hereof. The Registration Statement became effective under the 1933 Act upon filing with the Commission. The Registration Statement is an “automatic shelf registration statement,” as defined in Rule 405, and the Securities have been and remain eligible for registration by the Operating Partnership and the Company, as applicable, on an automatic shelf registration statement. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any part thereof has been issued under the 1933 Act and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or, to the knowledge of the Operating Partnership or the Company, are contemplated by the Commission, and no notice of objection of the Commission to the use of such registration statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations has been received by the Operating Partnership or the Company. No order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus has been issued and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or, to the knowledge of the Operating Partnership or the Company, threatened or contemplated by the Commission or the securities authority of any jurisdiction. Any request on the part of the Commission for additional information has been complied with.

At the respective times the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendments thereto became effective, at each deemed effective date with respect to the Underwriters and the Securities pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2), and at the Closing Date, the Registration Statement and any amendments and supplements thereto complied, complies and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act, the 1933 Act Regulations and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”), as applicable, and did not, does not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. Neither the Prospectus nor any amendments or supplements thereto, at the time the Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement was issued or at the Closing Date, included, includes or will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Any preliminary prospectus (including the prospectus filed as part of the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto) complied, and the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto will comply, in each case when so filed, in all material respects with the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations and any such preliminary prospectus and the Prospectus delivered or made available to the Underwriters for use in connection with the offering of Securities was and will, at the time of such delivery, be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to ▇▇▇▇▇, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.

At the Applicable Time, each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (as defined below) identified on Schedule II and the Statutory Prospectus (as defined below), all considered together (collectively, the “General Disclosure Package”), did not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The representations and warranties in the preceding three paragraphs shall not apply to (a) that part of the Registration Statement which shall constitute the Statement of Eligibility (Form T-1) of the Trustee under the Trust Indenture Act, or (b) statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement, or any post-effective amendment thereto, or the Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package, or any amendments or supplements thereto, made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Operating Partnership in writing by the Representatives on behalf of the Underwriters expressly for use in the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, or the Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package, or any amendments or supplements thereto, as the case may be.

“Statutory Prospectus” means the most recent preliminary prospectus distributed by the Underwriters to prospective purchasers of the Securities prior to the execution of this Agreement.

References herein to the “Registration Statement” shall include such automatic shelf registration statement or such new shelf registration statement, as the case may be.

(c) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Securities is required to be delivered (or but for the exception afforded by Rule 172 of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 172”) would be required to be delivered) under the 1933 Act, any event or development occurs as a result of which the Registration Statement or the Prospectus would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or if it shall be necessary to amend the Registration Statement or amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with the 1933 Act or the 1933 Act Regulations or to file a new registration statement relating to the Securities, the Operating Partnership and the Company promptly will (1) notify the Representatives of any such event or development, (2) prepare and file with the Commission, subject to Section 5(a) hereof, such amendment, supplement or new

registration statement which will correct such statement or omission, effect such compliance or satisfy such filing requirement, (3) use their best efforts to have any such amendment to the Registration Statement or new registration statement declared effective as soon as possible (if not an automatic shelf registration statement) and (4) supply any amended or supplemented Prospectus to the Underwriters in such quantities as they may reasonably request. If, at any time after the date hereof, an event or development occurs as a result of which the General Disclosure Package contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it is used, not misleading, the Operating Partnership and the Company promptly will (1) notify the Representatives of any such event or development, (2) prepare, subject to Section 5(a) hereof, an amendment or supplement to the General Disclosure Package to eliminate or correct such untrue statement or omission and (3) supply any amended or supplemented General Disclosure Package to the Underwriters in such quantities as they may reasonably request. If at any time following the issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicted or would conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement (or any other registration statement relating to the Securities), the Statutory Prospectus or the Prospectus or included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at that subsequent time, not misleading, the Operating Partnership and the Company will promptly notify the Underwriters and will promptly amend or supplement, at their own expense, such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict, untrue statement or omission. The Underwriters’ delivery of any such amendment or supplement shall not constitute a waiver of any of the conditions in Section 6 hereof.

(d) As soon as practicable, the Operating Partnership and the Company will make generally available to its security holders and to the Representatives an earnings statement or statements of the Operating Partnership and the Company and their subsidiaries which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act and Rule 158 under the 1933 Act.

(e) The Operating Partnership and the Company will furnish to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters signed copies of the Registration Statement (including exhibits thereto) and to each other Underwriter a copy of the Registration Statement and, so long as delivery of a prospectus by an Underwriter or dealer is or may be (or but for the exception afforded by Rule 172 would be) required by the 1933 Act, as many copies of any preliminary prospectus and the Prospectus as the Representatives may reasonably request.

(f) Each of the Operating Partnership and the Company represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Underwriters, and each Underwriter agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Operating Partnership and the Representatives, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433, or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 405, required

to be filed with the Commission other than the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses, if any, identified on Schedule II hereto. Each of the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses, if any, identified on Schedule II hereto and free writing prospectuses, if any, consented to by the Operating Partnership, the Underwriters and the Representatives, as applicable, is referred to herein as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.” The Operating Partnership represents that is has treated or agrees that it will treat each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433, and has complied and will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including timely filing with the Commission where required, legending and record keeping. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Partnership and the Company consent to the use by any Underwriter of a free writing prospectus that contains only (a)(i) information describing the preliminary terms of the Securities or their offering, (ii) information meeting the requirements of Rule 134 of the 1933 Act Regulations or (iii) information that describes the final terms of the Securities or their offering or (b) other customary information that is neither “issuer information,” as defined in Rule 433, nor otherwise an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

(g) The Operating Partnership and the Company will arrange, if necessary, for the qualification of the Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate and will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Securities; provided, however, that in no event shall the Operating Partnership or the Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Securities, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject.

(h) Between the date of this Agreement and one day after the Closing Date, neither the Operating Partnership nor the Company will, without the Representatives’ prior written consent, offer to sell, enter into any agreement to sell, or sell, any United States dollar-denominated debt securities issued or guaranteed by either the Company or the Operating Partnership having a term of more than one year, other than the Securities.

(i) The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to meet the requirements to qualify, for the taxable year ending December 31, 2020 and for each of its succeeding taxable years for so long as the Board of Directors of the Company deems it in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders to remain so qualified, for taxation as a REIT under the Code.

(j) The Operating Partnership and the Company will each use its commercially reasonable efforts to complete the construction of its properties that it owns as of the date hereof in accordance with the descriptions set forth in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(k) For so long as the delivery of a prospectus is required by federal or state law in connection with the offering or sale of the Securities, the Operating Partnership and the Company will comply in all material respects with all applicable securities and other applicable laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act, and the Company will use its best efforts to cause its directors and officers, in their capacities as such, to comply in all material respects with such laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the provisions of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act.

(l) The Operating Partnership and the Company will file with the Commission such reports as may be required pursuant to Rule 463 under the 1933 Act.

(m) Neither the Transaction Entities nor the Subsidiaries will take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to, or that would constitute or that might reasonably be expected to, cause or result in, under the 1934 Act or otherwise, stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Notes.

(n) For so long as the delivery of a prospectus is required by federal or state law in connection with the offering or sale of the Securities, the Operating Partnership and the Company will take such steps as shall be necessary to ensure that none of the Transaction Entities shall become an “investment company” within the meaning of such term under the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇.

(o) The Operating Partnership and the Company agree to pay the costs and expenses relating to the following matters: (i) the preparation, printing or reproduction and filing with the Commission of the Registration Statement (including financial statements and exhibits thereto), any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus, any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus and all amendments or supplements to any of them; (ii) the printing (or reproduction) and delivery (including postage, air freight charges and charges for counting and packaging) of such copies of the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus, any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus and all amendments or supplements to any of them, as may, in each case, be reasonably requested for use in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities; (iii) the preparation, printing, authentication, issuance and delivery of the Guarantee or certificates for the Notes, including any stamp or transfer taxes in connection with the original issuance and sale of the Notes; (iv) the printing (or reproduction) and delivery of this Agreement, any blue sky memorandum or any supplement thereto and all other agreements or documents printed (or reproduced) and delivered in connection with the offering of the Securities; (v) any registration or qualification of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of the jurisdictions referenced in Section 5(g) hereof (including filing fees and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters relating to such registration and qualification); (vi) any filings required to be made with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (the “FINRA”) (including filing fees and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Underwriters relating to such filings); (vii) the transportation and other expenses incurred by or on behalf of Company representatives in connection with presentations to prospective purchasers of the Securities, if any; (viii) the fees and expenses of the Operating Partnership and the Company’s accountants, counsel (including local and special counsel) and transfer agent and registrar; (ix) any travel expenses of the Operating Partnership and the Company’s officers and employees and any other expenses of the Operating Partnership or the Company in connection with attending or hosting meetings with prospective purchasers of the Securities; (x) all fees payable in connection with the

rating of the Securities by the rating agencies; (xi) all fees and expenses making the Notes eligible for clearance, settlement and trading through the facilities of DTC, (xii) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance by the Operating Partnership and the Company of each of its obligations hereunder; and (xiii) the costs and expenses (including without limitation any damages or other amounts payable in connection with legal or contractual liability) associated with the reforming of any contracts for sale of the Securities made by the Underwriters caused by a breach of the representation contained in the fourth paragraph of Section 1(a) hereof.

(p) During the period when a prospectus is required (or but for the exception afforded by Rule 172 would be required) to be delivered by the Underwriters under the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act, the Operating Partnership and the Company will (1) comply with all provisions of the 1933 Act and (2) file all documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the 1934 Act or the 1934 Act Regulations within the time periods prescribed therefor.

(q) If at any time when Notes remain unsold by the Underwriters the Operating Partnership or the Company receives from the Commission a notice pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) or otherwise ceases to be eligible to use the automatic shelf registration statement form, the Operating Partnership and the Company will (i) promptly notify you, (ii) promptly file a new registration statement or post-effective amendment on the proper form relating to such Securities, in a form and substance satisfactory to you, (iii) use its best efforts to cause such registration statement or post-effective amendment to be declared effective as soon as practicable and (iv) promptly notify you of such effectiveness. The Operating Partnership and the Company will take all other action necessary or appropriate to permit the public offering and sale of the Securities to continue as contemplated in the registration statement that was the subject of the Rule 401(g)(2) notice or for which the Operating Partnership or the Company has otherwise become ineligible. References herein to the “Registration Statement” shall include such new registration statement or post-effective amendment, as the case may be.

(r) The Operating Partnership and the Company will prepare a final term sheet, in a form approved by the Representatives and substantially in the form set forth in Schedule III to this Agreement, and will file such term sheet pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the 1933 Act Regulations within the time required by such rule (the “Final Term Sheet”). The Operating Partnership acknowledges that the Final Term Sheet is an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus for purposes of this Agreement.

6. Conditions to the Obligations of the Underwriters. The obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Notes shall be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Transaction Entities contained herein as of the date hereof, the Applicable Time and the Closing Date, to the accuracy of the statements of the Operating Partnership and the Company made in any certificates pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Operating Partnership and the Company of their respective obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions:

(a) On the Closing Date, (i) the Registration Statement shall have been filed by the Operating Partnership and the Company with the Commission not earlier than three years prior to the date hereof and became effective upon filing in accordance with Rule 462(e) of the 1933 Act Regulations and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have been issued under the 1933 Act or proceedings therefor initiated or threatened by the Commission, and any request on the part of the Commission for additional information shall have been complied with to the reasonable satisfaction of counsel to the Underwriters, and no notice of objection of the Commission to the use of such form of registration statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations has been received by the Operating Partnership or the Company, (ii) each preliminary prospectus and the Prospectus shall have been filed with the Commission in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b) without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8) (or a post-effective amendment providing such information shall have been filed and become effective in accordance with the requirements of Rule 430B), and no order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus shall have been issued by the Commission or the securities authority of any jurisdiction, (iii) any material required to be filed by the Operating Partnership pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the 1933 Act Regulations shall have been filed with the Commission within the applicable time periods prescribed for such filings under such Rule 433, (iv) the Operating Partnership shall have paid the required Commission filing fees relating to the Securities within the time period required by Rule 456(b)(1)(i) of the 1933 Act Regulations without regard to the proviso therein and otherwise in accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r) of the 1933 Act Regulations and, if applicable, shall have updated the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in accordance with Rule 456(b)(1)(ii) either in a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or on the cover page of a prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b), and (v) there shall not have come to your attention any facts that would cause you to believe that the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, at the time it was, or was required to be, delivered or made available to purchasers of the Securities, included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances existing at such time, not misleading.

(b) The Operating Partnership and the Company shall have requested and caused Dentons US LLP, counsel for the Operating Partnership and the Company, to have furnished to the Representatives their opinion, dated the Closing Date and addressed to the Representatives, to the matters attached as Exhibit A hereto. In rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely (A) as to matters involving the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than the States of Texas, New York, Maryland or Delaware (to the extent limited to Delaware corporate laws) or the federal laws of the United States, to the extent they deem proper and specified in such opinion, upon the opinion of other counsel of good standing whom they believe to be reliable and who are satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters and (B) as to matters of fact, to the extent they deem proper, on certificates of responsible officers of the Company or the general partner of the Operating Partnership and public officials. Such opinion shall also cover any amendments or supplements thereto at the Closing Date.

In addition, Dentons US LLP shall state that, although such counsel has not independently verified and is not passing upon and assumes no responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, no facts have come to such counsel’s attention that have caused such counsel to believe that (i) the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, at the time of filing of the most recent combined Annual Report on Form 10-K of the Operating Partnership and the Company or as of the “new effective date” with respect to the Underwriters and the Securities pursuant to, and within the meaning of, Rule 430B(f)(2), contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) the General Disclosure Package, at the Applicable Time, included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (iii) the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, as of their respective issue dates or at the Closing Date, included or includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (in each case, other than the financial statements, related notes and schedules and other financial information included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom, as to which such counsel need express no statement). With respect to statements contained in the General Disclosure Package, any statement contained in any of the constituent documents that are also part of the General Disclosure Package shall be deemed to be modified or superseded to the extent that any information contained in subsequent constituent documents modifies or replaces such statement.

(c) The Representatives shall have received from Sidley Austin LLP, counsel for the Underwriters, such opinion or opinions, dated the Closing Date and addressed to the Representatives, with respect to the issuance and sale of the Securities, the disclosure in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and other related matters as the Representatives may reasonably require, and the Transaction Entities shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they reasonably request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters. In rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely, as to matters of fact (but not as to legal conclusions), to the extent they deem proper, on certificates of responsible officers of the Company or the general partner of the Operating Partnership and public officials. In addition, in rendering such opinion, such counsel may rely on and assume the accuracy of an opinion of Dentons US LLP, counsel for the Operating Partnership and the Company, dated as of the Closing Date, with respect to matters of Maryland law.

(d) Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership shall have furnished to the Representatives a certificate, signed by the Chairman of the Board or President and the principal financial or accounting officer of the Company on behalf of the Company, for itself and as the sole member of the general partner of the Operating Partnership, respectively, dated the Closing Date, to the effect that the signers of such certificate have carefully examined the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and any amendments or supplements to the foregoing, as well as this Agreement, and that:

(i) the representations and warranties of the Transaction Entities in this Agreement are true and correct on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as if made on the Closing Date and the Transaction Entities have complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on their part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Date;

(ii) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or, to the Company’s or Operating Partnership’s knowledge, are threatened by the Commission, no notice of objection of the Commission to the use of such form of registration statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations has been received by the Company or the Operating Partnership and no order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus shall have been issued by the Commission or the securities authority of any jurisdiction; and

(iii) since the date of the most recent financial statements included or incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (for the avoidance of doubt, exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), there has been no Material Adverse Effect, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (for the avoidance of doubt, exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto).

(e) At the date hereof, the Representatives shall have received a letter from Ernst & Young LLP dated such date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives, together with signed or reproduced copies of such letter for each of the other Underwriters containing statements and information of the type ordinarily included in accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters with respect to the financial statements and certain financial information contained in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(f) On the Closing Date, the Representatives shall have received a letter, dated the Closing Date, from Ernst & Young LLP to the effect that they reaffirm the statements made in the applicable letter furnished pursuant to subsection (e) of this Section 6, except that the specified date referred to shall be a date not more than three business days prior to the Closing Date.

(g) Subsequent to the date hereof or, if earlier, the dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there shall not have been (i) any change or decrease specified in the letter or letters referred to in subsection (e) of this Section 6 or (ii) any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the condition (financial or

otherwise), earnings, business, assets, prospects or properties of the Transaction Entities and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above, is, in the judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (for the avoidance of doubt, exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), or (iii) any downgrading in, or withdrawal of, the rating of any debt securities of, or guaranteed by, the Operating Partnership or the Company by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (as defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the 1934 Act), or any public announcement that any such organization has under surveillance or review its rating of any such securities (other than an announcement with positive implications of a possible upgrading, and no implication of a possible downgrading action, of such rating).

(h) On the Closing Date, counsel for the Underwriters shall have been furnished with such other documents and opinions as they may reasonably require for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon the issuance and sale of the Securities as herein contemplated and related proceedings, or in order to evidence the accuracy of any of the representations or warranties, or the fulfillment of any of the conditions, herein contained; and all proceedings taken by the Transaction Entities in connection with the issuance and sale of the Securities as herein contemplated shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Underwriters and counsel for the Underwriters.

(i) Prior to the Closing Date, the Operating Partnership and the Company shall have furnished to the Representatives such further information, certificates and documents as the Representatives may reasonably request.

(j) The Securities shall be eligible for clearance, settlement and trading through the facilities of DTC.

(k) At the Closing Date, the Securities shall be rated at least “Baa3” by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investors Service, Inc. and “BBB-” by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services and the Operating Partnership and the Company shall have delivered to the Representatives evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives confirming that the Securities have such ratings; and since the execution of the Agreement, there shall not have occurred any downgrading in, or withdrawal of, the rating of any debt securities of or guaranteed by the Operating Partnership or the Company by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (as defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the 1934 Act), or any public announcement that any such organization has under surveillance or review its rating of any such securities (other than an announcement with positive implications of a possible upgrading, and no implication of a possible downgrading, of such rating).

Any certificate or document signed by any officer or representative of the Transaction Entities and delivered to the Underwriters, or to counsel for the Underwriters, shall be deemed a representation and warranty by each of the Transaction Entities to the Underwriters as to the statements made therein.

The Transaction Entities will furnish the Representatives with such conformed copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and documents as the Representatives reasonably request. The Representatives may in their sole discretion waive on behalf of the Underwriters compliance with any conditions to the obligations of the Underwriters hereunder, whether in respect of the Closing Date or otherwise.

If any of the conditions specified in this Section 6 shall not have been fulfilled when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives, this Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Representatives. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Operating Partnership in writing or by telephone or facsimile confirmed in writing.

The documents required to be delivered by this Section 6 shall be delivered at the offices of Sidley Austin LLP, counsel for the Underwriters, at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, on the Closing Date.

7. Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses. If the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section 10 hereof (other than Section 10(a)(iii)) or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Operating Partnership or the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Underwriters, the Operating Partnership and the Company will, jointly and severally, reimburse the Underwriters severally through the Representatives on demand for all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities.

8. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Each of the Transaction Entities agrees, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees and agents of each Underwriter and each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, including the Rule 430B Information, or in any amendment to the Registration Statement, or in the General Disclosure Package, any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in each case other than with respect

to the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and agrees, jointly and severally, to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, none of the Transaction Entities will be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Operating Partnership by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion therein. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Transaction Entities may otherwise have.

(b) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Transaction Entities and each of the Company’s directors and each of the Company’s and ACCHL’s officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Transaction Entities within the meaning of either Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Transaction Entities to each Underwriter, but only with reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Operating Partnership by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have. The Operating Partnership and the Company acknowledge that the statements set forth under the heading “Underwriting – Conflicts of Interest,” (i) the list of Underwriters and their respective participation in the sale of the Securities, (ii) the sentences related to the concessions and reallowances and (iii) the paragraph related to stabilization, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids in any preliminary prospectus and the Prospectus constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the several Underwriters for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying

party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (x) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (y) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Transaction Entities and the Underwriters agree, severally in proportion to their respective commitments to purchase the Securities specified in Schedule I hereto, to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending the same) (collectively, “Losses”) to which the Transaction Entities and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Transaction Entities on the one hand and by the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities; provided, however, that in no case shall any Underwriter be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the Securities purchased by such Underwriter hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Transaction Entities and the Underwriters severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits, but also the relative fault of the Transaction Entities on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Transaction Entities shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by it; and benefits received by the Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Transaction Entities on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Transaction Entities and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the

meaning of Section 11(f) of the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of an Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the Transaction Entities within the meaning of either Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, each officer of ACCHL or the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Transaction Entities subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

9. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth in Schedule I hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Securities, and if such nondefaulting Underwriters do not purchase all the Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Underwriter or the Company. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five business days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company and any nondefaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

10. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Operating Partnership prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, (a) if at any time prior to such time, (i) trading in any securities of the Operating Partnership or the Company shall have been suspended or materially limited by the Commission or the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) or trading in securities generally on the NYSE shall have been suspended or limited or minimum or maximum prices shall have been established on the NYSE, (ii) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared either by federal or New York State authorities, (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic condition, the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (for the avoidance of doubt, exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), or (iv) a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the jurisdictions where Securities are offered or (b) as provided in Sections 6 and 9 hereof.

11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Transaction Entities or any officer of any of the Transaction Entities and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or the Transaction Entities or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or controlling persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

12. No Fiduciary Relationship. The Transaction Entities acknowledge and agree that (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, (ii) in connection with the offering contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction, each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, the Operating Partnership or their respective securityholders, creditors, employees or any other party, (iii) no Underwriter has assumed or will assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or the Operating Partnership with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company or the Operating Partnership on other matters) and no Underwriter has any obligation to the Company or the Operating Partnership with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (iv) the Underwriters and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and the Operating Partnership, and (v) the Underwriters have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and the Company and the Operating Partnership have each consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate. Any review of the Company, the Operating Partnership, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions performed by the Representatives or any Underwriter will be performed solely for the benefit of the Representatives or such Underwriter and shall not be on behalf of the Company or the Operating Partnership or any other person.

13. Notices.
