Operating Partnership hereby creates the Notes as a separate series of its debt securities, entitled “5.625% Senior Notes due 2023,” issued pursuant to the Indenture. The Notes shall initially be limited to an aggregate principal amount
equal to $250,000,000, subject to the exceptions set forth in Section 301(2) of the Base Indenture and Section 2.03(e) hereof. 

Section 2.02. Form of Notes. The Notes will be issued in the form of one or more permanent fully registered global
securities (the “Global Note”) that will be deposited with, or on behalf of the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, subject to Section 305 of the Base
Indenture. So long as the Depository, or its nominee, is the registered owner of the Global Note, the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole Holder of the Notes represented by the Global Note for all purposes
under the Indenture. 
 Section 2.03. Terms and Provisions of Notes. The Notes shall be governed by all of the terms and
provisions of the Base Indenture, as supplemented by this First Supplemental Indenture, and in particular, the following provisions shall be terms of the Notes: 

(a) The Notes will be issued only in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 of principal amount and any higher
integral multiple of $1,000. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication and shall bear interest from the date specified on the face of the form of Note attached as Exhibit A hereto. 

  
 26 








 (b) All payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of the Global
Notes will be made by the Operating Partnership in immediately available funds to the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, as the Holder of each of the Global Notes. The notes will mature on June 15, 2023. The notes will bear interest
from and after June 9, 2015 at a rate of 5.625% per annum. Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually in cash on each June 15 and December 15, commencing December 15, 2015 (each, an “Interest Payment
Date”), to the persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on June 1 and December 1 immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date (each, a “Regular Record Date”). Interest on the notes
will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including June 9, 2015. 

(c) There shall be no sinking fund payments for the Notes. 

(d) The Operating Partnership initially appoints DTC to act as Depository with respect to the Global Notes. 

(e) The Operating Partnership may, from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, increase the principal amount of the
Notes by issuing additional Notes in the future on the same terms and conditions, except for any difference in the issue price, issue date, interest accrued prior to the issue date of the additional Notes, and, if applicable, the first Interest
Payment Date and the initial interest accrual date, and with the same CUSIP number as the existing Notes so long as such additional Notes are fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with the existing Notes. 

ARTICLE 3

 At any time prior to June 15, 2018, the Operating Partnership may redeem the Notes,
in whole or in part, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, by paying a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, to, but not including, the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). The Trustee shall have no obligation to
calculate either the Applicable Premium or the Treasury Rate used in the calculation of the Applicable Premium. 

Section 3.02. Optional Redemption upon Equity Offerings. At any time, or from time to time, on or prior to June 15,
2018, the Operating Partnership may, at its option, use the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings to redeem up to 35% of the principal amount of the Notes at a redemption price of 105.625% of the principal amount thereof, together with
accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of redemption; provided that: 

(1) at least 65% of the principal amount of the Notes originally issued under the Indenture on the Issue Date remain
outstanding immediately after such redemption; and 
 (2) the Operating Partnership makes such redemption not more than 90
days after the consummation of any such Equity Offering. 
 Section 3.03. Method and Effect of Redemption.
Section 1103 of the Base Indenture is hereby amended and restated in full, with respect to the Notes, to read as follows:  

“In the event that the Operating Partnership chooses to redeem less than all of the Notes, selection of the Notes for redemption will be
made by the Trustee either: 
 (1) in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any,
on which the Notes are listed; or, 
 (2) on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair
and appropriate; 
 subject, in each case, to DTC procedures for Global Notes where the Depositary is DTC. 

No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. The Trustee will notify the Operating Partnership promptly of the
Notes or portions of Notes to be called for redemption. If a partial redemption is made 

  
 28 








 
with the proceeds of an Equity Offering, the Trustee will select the Notes only on a pro rata basis or on as nearly a pro rata basis as is practicable (subject to DTC
procedures) unless such method is otherwise prohibited. Notice of redemption will be delivered by the Operating Partnership, or at the Operating Partnership’s request, by the Trustee, in the name and expense of the Operating Partnership, at
least 30 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address; provided, that at least 45 days notice must be provided to the Trustee, unless a shorter period is agreed to in
advance by the Trustee. Unless the Operating Partnership defaults in the payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.”  

Section 3.04. Offer to Purchase. This section sets out rules governing Offers to Purchase made pursuant to Section 4.09 and
Section 4.10. “Offer to Purchase” means an offer to purchase Notes by the Operating Partnership, from the Holders commenced by mailing a notice to the Trustee and each Holder stating: 

(1) the covenant pursuant to which the offer is being made and that all Notes validly tendered will be accepted for payment on
a pro rata basis; 
 (2) the purchase price and the date of purchase (which shall be a Business Day no earlier than
30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed) (“Payment Date”); 
 (3) that any Note
not tendered will continue to accrue interest pursuant to its terms; 
 (4) that, unless the Operating Partnership defaults
in the payment of the purchase price, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer to Purchase shall cease to accrue interest on and after the Payment Date; 

(5) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to the Offer to Purchase will be required to surrender the Note,
together with the form entitled “Option of the Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse side of the Note completed, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately
preceding the Payment Date; 
 (6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Payment Agent receives,
not later than the close of business on the third Business Day immediately preceding the Payment Date, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of such Holder, the principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase and a statement
that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Notes purchased; and 

  
 29 








 (7) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new
Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered; provided that each Note purchased and each new Note issued shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 and any higher integral multiple of $1,000 thereof. 

On the Payment Date, in connection with an Offer to Purchase, the Operating Partnership shall 

 

	 	•	 	accept for payment on a pro rata basis Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to an Offer to Purchase; 

  

	 	•	 	deposit with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the purchase price of all Notes or portions thereof so accepted; and 

  

	 	•	 	promptly thereafter deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee all Notes or portions thereof so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate specifying the Notes or portions thereof accepted for payment
by the Operating Partnership. 

 The Trustee shall not have any duty to determine the amount to be deposited in connection with an Offer to
Purchase. 
 The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to the Holders of Notes so accepted payment in an amount equal to the purchase
price, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail to such Holders a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Note surrendered; provided that each Note purchased and each new Note issued shall be in a
principal amount of $2,000 and any higher integral multiple of $1,000. The Operating Partnership shall publicly announce the results of an Offer to Purchase as soon as practicable after the Payment Date. The Operating Partnership shall comply with
Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable, in the event that the Operating Partnership is required to repurchase Notes pursuant to an Offer to
Purchase.

the City of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment and where notices and demands to or upon the Operating

fails to maintain any such required office or agency or fails to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served to the Trustee. 

The Operating Partnership may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be surrendered or
presented for any of such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The Operating Partnership 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.” 
 Section 4.02. Limitation on Indebtedness. 

(1) The Operating Partnership will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, Incur any Indebtedness if, immediately
after giving effect to the Incurrence of such additional Indebtedness and the receipt and application of the proceeds therefrom, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and its Restricted

the proceeds therefrom, the Interest Coverage Ratio of the Operating Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis would be at least 2.0 to 1.0. 

(4) Notwithstanding paragraphs (1), (2) or (3), the Operating Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur each and all of
the following:

provided that any event which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any subsequent

 (D) Indebtedness issued in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to extend, refinance, renew, replace,

or refunded (plus premiums, accrued interest, fees and expenses); provided that Indebtedness the proceeds of which are used to refinance or refund Indebtedness that ranks subordinate in right of payment to, the Notes shall be permitted under
this clause (D) only if: 
  

	 	(i)	such new Indebtedness, by its terms or by the terms of any agreement or instrument pursuant to which such new Indebtedness is issued or remains outstanding, is expressly made subordinate in right of payment to the Notes

	 	(iv)	under Currency Agreements and Interest Rate Agreements; provided that such agreements (i) are designed solely to protect the Operating Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries against fluctuations
in foreign currency exchange rates or interest rates and (ii) do not increase the Indebtedness of the obligor outstanding at any time other than as a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates or interest rates or by reason of
fees, indemnities and compensation payable thereunder, and 

  

	 	(v)	 arising from agreements providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, or from Guarantees or letters of credit,
surety bonds or performance bonds securing any obligations of the Operating Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to such agreements, in any case Incurred in connection with the disposition of any

 (4) make an Investment, other than
a Permitted Investment, in any Person (such payments or any other actions described in clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”) if, at the time of, and after giving effect to,
the proposed Restricted Payment: 
 (A) a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 

(B) the Operating Partnership could not Incur at least $1.00 of Indebtedness under paragraphs (1) and (3) of Section

foregoing, the Operating Partnership and any Restricted Subsidiary may declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution to the Company to fund a dividend or distribution by the Company (and make any corresponding distributions to the Operating
Partnership’s partners other than the Company), so long as the Company believes in good faith that the Company qualifies as a real estate investment trust under the Code and the declaration or payment of any dividend or the making of any
distribution is necessary either to maintain the Company’s status as a real estate investment trust under the Code for any calendar year or to enable the Company to avoid payment of any tax for any calendar year that could be avoided by reason
of a distribution by the Company to its shareholders, with such distribution to be made as and when determined by the Company, whether during or after the end of, the relevant calendar year, if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing.

warrants or other rights to acquire such Capital Stock); 
 (4) the making of any principal payment on, or the repurchase, redemption,
retirement, defeasance or other acquisition for value of, Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership which is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes in exchange for, or out of the proceeds of, a substantially concurrent issuance of, shares of

out period under the terms of Section 8.7(b)(ii) of the Partnership Agreement, or the redemption shelf is otherwise unavailable to the Company to issue redemption shares thereunder due to
laws and regulations, (b) such payment is not made in respect of any Units beneficially owned by any of Lammot J. du Pont, Hossein Fateh or any member of the Board of Directors of the Operating Partnership and (c) the aggregate amount of

(other than to any Subsidiary) of, the Disqualified Stock of the Operating Partnership, or (b) pursuant to a required change of control offer or asset sale offer arising from a Change of Control or Asset Sale, as the case may be,
provided that such repayment, repurchase, redemption, acquisition or retirement occurs after all Notes tendered by Holders in connection with a related Offer to Purchase have been repurchased, redeemed or acquired for value;

 provided that, in the case of clauses (9), (10) and (11), no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing or occur as a direct consequence of the actions or payments set forth therein. Each Restricted Payment permitted pursuant to this paragraph (other than the Restricted Payment referred to in clause (2), (3), (4), (5), (6),
(8), (11) and (12) of this paragraph), and the Net Cash Proceeds from any issuance of Capital Stock referred to in clauses (3) and (4), shall be included in calculating whether the conditions of clause (4)(C) of Section 4.05(a)
have been met with respect to any subsequent Restricted Payments. 
 Section 4.06. Limitation on Dividend and Other
Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries. (a) Except as provided in Section 4.06(b), the Operating Partnership will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist
or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction of any kind on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 
 (1) pay
dividends or make any other distributions permitted by applicable law on any Capital Stock of such Restricted Subsidiary owned by the Operating Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, 

(2) pay any Indebtedness owed to the Operating Partnership or any other Restricted Subsidiary, 

(3) make loans or advances to the Operating Partnership or any other Restricted Subsidiary, or 

(4) transfer its property or assets to the Operating Partnership or any other Restricted Subsidiary. 

(b) Section 4.10(a) shall not restrict any encumbrances or restrictions: 

(1) existing on the Issue Date in the Indenture and any other agreement in effect on the Issue Date, and any extensions, refinancings,
renewals or replacements of such agreements; provided that the encumbrances and restrictions in any such extensions, refinancings, renewals or replacements are no less favorable in any material respect, taken as a whole, to the Holders than
those encumbrances or restrictions that are then in effect and that are being extended, refinanced, renewed or replaced; 
 (2) imposed
under any applicable documents or instruments pertaining to any current or future Secured Indebtedness permitted or not prohibited under the Indenture (and relating solely to assets constituting collateral thereunder or cash proceeds from or
generated by such assets); 
 (3) existing under or by reason of applicable law, the Indenture, the Notes and the Guarantees; 

  
 41 








 (4) existing with respect to any Person, or the property or assets of such Person acquired by the
Operating Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary, existing at the time of such acquisition and not incurred in contemplation thereof, which encumbrances or restrictions are not applicable to any Person or the property or assets of any Person other
than such Person or the property or assets of such Person so acquired; 
 (5) in the case of Section 4.06(a)(4): 

(A) that restrict in a customary manner the subletting, assignment or transfer of any property or asset that is a lease, license, conveyance or
contract or similar property or asset; 
 (B) existing by virtue of any transfer of, agreement to transfer, option or right with respect to,
or Lien on, any property or assets of the Operating Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture; 

(C) existing under or by reason of purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business that impose restrictions
on that property; or 
 (D) arising or agreed to in the ordinary course of business, not relating to any Indebtedness, and that do not,
individually or in the aggregate, detract from the value of property or assets of the Operating Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary in any manner material to the Operating Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole; 

(6) with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary and imposed pursuant to an agreement that has been entered into for the sale or disposition of all
or substantially all of the Capital Stock of, or property and assets of, such Restricted Subsidiary (including a restriction on distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending its sale or other disposition); 

(7) contained in the terms of any Indebtedness or any agreement pursuant to which such Indebtedness was issued if the Operating Partnership
determines that any such encumbrance or restriction will not materially affect such Persons’ ability to make principal or interest payments on the Notes; 

(8) existing under or by reason of restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in
the ordinary course of business; 
 (9) customary provisions contained in joint venture agreements entered into in the ordinary course of
business; 

  
 42 








 (10) contained in any license, permit or other accreditation with a regulatory authority entered
into in the ordinary course of business; 
 (11) contained in agreements or instruments which prohibit the payment or making of dividends or
other distributions other than on a pro rata basis; or 
 (12) in connection with and pursuant to permitted extensions, refinancings
thereof, or as renewals or replacements of restrictions imposed pursuant to clauses (1) through (11) of Section 4.10(b); provided that the encumbrances and restrictions in any such extensions, refinancings, renewals or replacements are no
less favorable in any material respect, taken as a whole, to the Holders than those encumbrances or restrictions that are then in effect and that are being extended, refinanced, renewed or replaced. 

(c) Nothing contained in this Section 4.06 shall prevent the Operating Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary from restricting the sale or
other disposition of property or assets of the Operating Partnership or its Restricted Subsidiaries that secure Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. 

Section 4.07. Limitation on Guarantees by Restricted Subsidiaries. The Operating Partnership will not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries (including a newly created or acquired one), directly or indirectly, to Guarantee any Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary (“Guaranteed Indebtedness”),
unless: 
 (1) if such Restricted Subsidiary is not already a Subsidiary Guarantor, such Restricted Subsidiary executes and delivers
a supplemental indenture to the Indenture providing for a Subsidiary Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary within ten (10) Business Days; and 

(2) such Restricted Subsidiary waives and will not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any rights of
reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against the Operating Partnership or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Restricted Subsidiary under its Subsidiary Guarantee; 

provided that this paragraph shall not be applicable to any Guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a
Restricted Subsidiary and was not Incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary. If the Guaranteed Indebtedness: 

(a) ranks equally in right of payment with the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantee, then the Guarantee of such Guaranteed Indebtedness shall rank
equally with, or subordinate to, the Subsidiary Guarantee; or 

  
 43 








 (b) is subordinate in right of payment to the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantee, then the
Guarantee of such Guaranteed Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantee at least to the extent that the Guaranteed Indebtedness is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or the Subsidiary
Guarantee. 
 Section 4.08. Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates. The Operating Partnership will not, and will not
permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into, renew or extend any transaction (including, without limitations, the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of property or assets, or the rendering of any service) with any
Affiliate of the Operating Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case involving consideration in excess of $10 million (in one transaction or a series of related transactions), except upon fair and reasonable terms no less
favorable to the Operating Partnership or such Restricted Subsidiary than could be obtained, at the time of such transaction or, if such transaction is pursuant to a written agreement, at the time of the execution of the agreement providing
therefore, in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person that is not such an Affiliate. 
 The foregoing limitation
does not limit, and shall not apply to: 
 (1) transactions for which the Operating Partnership delivers to the Trustee a Board Resolution
of the Operating Partnership approved by a majority of the independent members of the Board of Directors; 
 (2) any transaction solely
among the Company, the Operating Partnership and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or solely among Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (3) any
payments or other transactions pursuant to any tax-sharing agreement between the Operating Partnership and the Company or other Person with which the Operating Partnership files a consolidated tax return or with which the Operating Partnership is
part of a consolidated group for tax purposes; 
 (4) any Restricted Payments or Permitted Investments not prohibited by Section 4.05; 

(5) transactions pursuant to agreements or arrangements in effect on the Issue Date or any amendment, modification, or supplement thereto or
replacement thereof, as long as such agreement or arrangement, as so amended, modified, supplemented or replaced, taken as a whole, is not more disadvantageous to the Operating Partnership and the Restricted Subsidiaries than the original agreement
or arrangement in existence on the Issue Date; 

  
 44 








 (6) director’s fees and any employment, consulting, service or termination agreement, or
reasonable and customary indemnification arrangements, entered into by the Operating Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with officers, directors and employees of the Company, the Operating Partnership or its Restricted Subsidiaries
that are Affiliates of the Operating Partnership or its Restricted Subsidiaries and the payment of compensation to such officers, directors and employees (including amounts paid or securities issued pursuant to employee benefit plans, employee stock
option or similar plans), or loans and advances to any officer, director or employee, so long as such agreement has been approved by the Board of Directors; 

(7) commission, payroll, travel and similar advances or loans (including payment or cancellation thereof) to officers and employees of the
Company, the Operating Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (8) sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of
the Operating Partnership to Affiliates; 
 (9) any transaction with any Person who is not an Affiliate immediately before the consummation
of such transaction that becomes an Affiliate as a result of such transaction; 
 (10) any transaction with a joint venture, partnership,
limited liability company or other entity that would constitute an Affiliate transaction solely because the Operating Partnership or a Restricted Subsidiary owns an equity interest in such joint venture, partnership, limited liability company or
other entity; or 
 (11) any merger, consolidation or reorganization of the Operating Partnership or a Restricted Subsidiary (otherwise
permitted by the Indenture) with or into a Restricted Subsidiary solely for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Operating Partnership or a Restricted Subsidiary. 

Section 4.09. Limitation on Asset Sales. The Operating Partnership shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, consummate any Asset Sale, unless: 
 (1) the consideration received by the Operating Partnership or such Restricted
Subsidiary is at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets sold or disposed of, and 
 (2) at least 75% of the consideration
received consists of cash or Temporary Cash Investments or a combination of both; provided that, with respect to the sale of one or more real estate properties, up to 75% of the consideration may consist of Indebtedness of the purchaser of
such real estate properties so long as such Indebtedness is secured by a first priority Lien on the real estate property or properties sold; and provided, further that, for purposes of this clause (2) the amount of the following
will be deemed to be cash: 

  
 45 








 (a) any liabilities, as shown on the Operating Partnership’s or such Restricted
Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet, of the Operating Partnership or any such Restricted Subsidiary’s (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Guarantee) that are
assumed by the transferee of any such assets but, except in the case of an Asset Sale to a Restricted Subsidiary, only to the extent of the reduction in the amount of such liabilities on the Operating Partnership’s consolidated balance sheet;

 (b) any securities, evidences of Indebtedness or other obligations received by the Operating Partnership, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any
such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are immediately converted by the Operating Partnership, the Subsidiary Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (or as to which the Operating Partnership, any Subsidiary Guarantor or such
Restricted Subsidiary has received at or prior to the consummation of the Asset Sale a commitment (which may be subject to customary conditions) from a nationally recognized investment, merchant or commercial bank to convert into cash within
one-hundred eighty (180) days of the consummation of such Asset Sale and which are thereafter actually converted into cash within such 180-day period); and 

(c) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Operating Partnership or such Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Sale having an
aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (c) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed $25 million, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated
Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value. 
 In the event
that the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Operating Partnership or such Restricted Subsidiary from one or more Asset Sales occurring on or after the Issue Date in any period of twelve consecutive months (the “Asset Period”) exceeds
1% of Total Assets (determined as of the date closest to the commencement of the Asset Period for which a consolidated balance sheet of the Operating Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries is available), then within twelve (12) months
after the date Net Cash Proceeds exceed 1% of Total Assets as described above, the Operating Partnership shall or shall cause the excess amount to be applied to: 

(A) permanently reduce Secured Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership or any Restricted Subsidiary or Indebtedness of any other Restricted
Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, in each case owing to a Person other than the Company, the Operating Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 

  
 46 








 (B) make a capital expenditure or invest in property or assets (other than current assets) of a
nature or type or that are used in a business (or in a Restricted Subsidiary, or a Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary upon such an Investment, having property and assets of a nature or type, or engaged in a business) similar or related to
the nature or type of the property and assets of, or the business of, the Operating Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries existing on the date of such capital expenditure or investment (or enter into a definitive agreement committing to
make such capital expenditure or so invest within 12 months after the date of such agreement); 
 (C) prepay, repay, redeem or purchase any
notes or other pari passu Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership or of any Subsidiary Guarantor or any Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case owing to a Person other than the Company, the
Operating Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Operating Partnership or any other Affiliate of the Operating Partnership; provided, that if the Operating Partnership or a Subsidiary Guarantor shall so prepay, repay, redeem or purchase any such notes
or pari passu Indebtedness, the Operating Partnership shall equally and ratably reduce obligations under the notes as provided under Section 3.01, through open-market purchases (provided that such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal
amount thereof) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Offer to Purchase pursuant to this Section 4.09) to all holders to purchase at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus
accrued and unpaid interest; 
 (D) fund all or a portion of an optional redemption of the notes pursuant to Section 3.01; or 

(E) undertake any combination of the foregoing. 

Pending the application of any such Net Cash Proceeds as described above, the Operating Partnership may invest such Net Cash Proceeds
in any manner that is not prohibited by the Indenture. The amount of such excess Net Cash Proceeds required to be applied (or to be committed to be applied) during such 12-month period as set forth in the preceding sentence and not applied as so
required by the end of such period shall constitute “Excess Proceeds”. If, as of the first day of any calendar month, the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds not previously subject to an Offer to Purchase pursuant to this Section
4.09 totals more than $25 million, the Operating Partnership must commence, not later than  

  
 47 








 
the fifteenth Business Day of such month, and consummate an Offer to Purchase from the Holders of the Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing
provisions similar to those set forth in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets, on a pro rata basis, an aggregate principal amount of Notes and such other Indebtedness equal to the
Excess Proceeds on such date, at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes and such other Indebtedness plus, in each case, accrued interest and Additional Interest (if any) to the Payment Date. 

If the aggregate principal amount of the Notes and the other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes tendered into such Offer to
Purchase exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, then the Notes and the other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes will be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of the Notes and the other Indebtedness that is
pari passu with the Notes tendered. Upon completion of each Offer to Purchase, any remaining Excess Proceeds subject to such Offer to Purchase will no longer be deemed to be Excess Proceeds. 

Section 4.10. Repurchase of Notes Upon a Change of Control. (a) Unless the Operating Partnership has previously or
concurrently delivered a redemption notice with respect to all existing Notes pursuant to Section 3.01 and all conditions precedent applicable to such redemption notice have been satisfied, the Operating Partnership must commence, within 30 days of
the occurrence of a Change of Control, and consummate an Offer to Purchase for all Notes then outstanding, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued interest and Additional Interest (if any) to the
Payment Date. 
 (b) The Operating Partnership will not be required to make an Offer to Purchase upon a Change of Control if a third
party makes the Offer to Purchase in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to an Offer to Purchase made by the Operating Partnership and purchases all Notes validly tendered
and not withdrawn under such Offer to Purchase. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, an Offer to Purchase may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in
place for the Change of Control at the time of making the Offer to Purchase. 
 (c) The Operating Partnership will comply with the
requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. To
the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of the Indenture, the Operating Partnership will comply with the applicable securities laws or regulations and will not be deemed to
have breached its obligations under the Change of Control provisions of the Indenture by virtue of such compliance. 

  
 48 








 Section 4.11. SEC Reports and Reports to Holders. (a) Whether or not the
Operating Partnership or the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Operating Partnership and the Company must provide the Trustee and Holders within fifteen (15) Business Days
after filing, or in the event no such filing is required, within fifteen (15) Business Days after the end of the time periods specified in those sections with: 

(1) all quarterly and annual financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and
10-K if the Operating Partnership or the Company were required to file such forms, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and, with respect to the annual financial
statements only, a report thereon by the Operating Partnership’s and the Company’s certified independent accountants, and 
 (2)
all current reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission on Form 8-K if the Operating Partnership and the Company were required to file such reports, 

provided that the foregoing delivery requirements shall be deemed satisfied if the foregoing materials are available on the SEC’s EDGAR system or
any successor system or on the Operating Partnership’s or the Company’s website within the applicable time period. 
 (b)
In addition, whether or not required by the Commission, the Company will, if the SEC will accept the filing, file a copy of all of the information and reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) of Section 4.11(a) with the Commission for
public availability within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations. In addition, the Operating Partnership and the Company will make the information and reports available to securities analysts and prospective
investors upon request. If the Operating Partnership had any Unrestricted Subsidiaries during the relevant period, the Operating Partnership will also provide to the Trustee and the Holders information sufficient to ascertain the financial condition
and results of operations of the Operating Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries, excluding in all respects the Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Operating Partnership and the Company will not be deemed to have failed to comply
with any provision of the reporting covenant in Section 4.11(b) for purposes of clause (4) of Section 6.02 as a result of the late filing or provision of any required information or report until 90 days after the date any such information or
report was due. 

  
 49 








 (d) All obligors on the Notes will comply with Section 314(a) of the Trust Indenture Act.

 (e) Delivery of these reports and information to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of them
will not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Operating Partnership’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is
entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’ Certificates). 
 Section 4.12. Suspension of Covenants. (a) For so
long as (i) the Notes are rated Investment Grade by each of S&P and Moody’s (or, if either (or both) of S&P and Moody’s have been substituted in accordance with the definition of “Rating Agencies,” by each of the
then applicable Rating Agencies) and (ii) no Default has occurred and is continuing under the Indenture (the occurrence of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a
“Covenant Suspension Event”), and conditioned upon the Operating Partnership promptly providing the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as to the existence of a Covenant Suspension Event
which identifies the date of such Covenant Suspension Event, the Operating Partnership and its Restricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to Section 4.02, Section 4.04, Section 4.05, Section 4.06, Section 4.07, Section 4.08, Section 4.09 and clause
(3) of Section 5.01 (the “Suspended Covenants”). 
 (b) Additionally, during such time as the
above referenced covenants are suspended, the Operating Partnership will not be permitted to designate any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary unless the Operating Partnership would have been permitted to designate such Subsidiary as
an Unrestricted Subsidiary if the covenants had been in effect for such period. 
 (c) If at any time the Notes’ credit rating
is downgraded from an Investment Grade rating or if a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then the Suspended Covenants will thereafter be reinstated as if such covenants had never been suspended (the “Reinstatement
Date”) and will be applicable pursuant to the terms of the Indenture (including in connection with performing any calculation or assessment to determine compliance with the terms of the Indenture), unless and until the Notes subsequently
attain an Investment Grade rating and no Default or Event of Default is in existence (in which event the Suspended Covenants shall no longer be in effect for such time that the Notes maintain an Investment Grade rating and no Default or Event of
Default is in existence); provided that no Default, Event of Default or breach of any kind shall be deemed to exist under the Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantees with respect to the Suspended Covenants based on, and none of
the Operating Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries shall bear any liability for, any actions taken or events occurring during the Suspension Period (as defined below), or any actions taken at any time pursuant to any contractual obligation arising
prior to the  

  
 50 








 
Reinstatement Date, regardless of whether such actions or events would have been permitted if the applicable Suspended Covenants remained in effect during such period. The period of time
between the date of suspension of the covenants and the Reinstatement Date, if any, is referred to as the “Suspension Period.”  

(d) The Operating Partnership shall deliver an Officers’ Certificate to the trustee specifying (i) if a Covenant Suspension
Event has occurred and (ii) if a Reinstatement Date has occurred; provided that in no case shall such Reinstatement Date be conditioned upon the receipt of such Officers’ Certificate. 

(e) Calculations made after the Reinstatement Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 4.05 will be made
as though the covenants described under Section 4.05 had been in effect since the Issue Date and throughout the Suspension Period. Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will reduce the amount available to be made as
Restricted Payments under clause (C) of Section 4.05(a), to the extent set forth in such covenant. 
 (f) The Trustee shall not have
any duty to monitor whether or not a Covenant Suspension Event or Reinstatement Date has occurred or ended, nor any duty to notify the noteholders of any of the foregoing. 

Section 4.13. Reports to Trustee. The Operating Partnership and the Company will notify the Trustee if and when any Notes
are listed on any national securities exchange and of any delisting. 
 ARTICLE 5 

CONSOLIDATION, MERGER AND SALE OF ASSETS 

Section 5.01. Applicability of Article Eight of the Base Indenture. Article Eight of the Base Indenture shall not apply to
the Notes. Instead, the provisions set forth in this Article 5 shall, with respect to the Notes, supersede in its entirety Article Eight of the Base Indenture and all references in the Base Indenture to Article Eight thereof and the provisions
therein, as the case may be, shall, with respect to the Notes, be deemed to be references to this Article 5 and the provisions set forth in this Article 5. 

Section 5.02. Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets by the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership will not
merge with or into, or sell, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property and assets (as an entirety or substantially an entirety in one transaction or a series of related transactions) to, any Person or
permit any Person to merge with or into the Operating Partnership unless: 

  
 51 








 (1) the Operating Partnership shall be the continuing Person, or the Person (if other than the
Operating Partnership) formed by such consolidation or into which the Operating Partnership is merged or that acquired or leased such property and assets of the Operating Partnership shall be an entity organized and validly existing under the laws
of the United States of America or any state or jurisdiction thereof and shall expressly assume, by a supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee, all of the obligations of the Operating Partnership on the Notes and under the
Indenture; 
 (2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

 (3) immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis the Operating Partnership, or any Person becoming the
successor obligor of the Notes, as the case may be, (x) could Incur at least $1.00 of Indebtedness under paragraphs (1) and (3) of Section 4.02 or (y) has a Leverage Ratio that is no higher than the Leverage Ratio of the
Operating Partnership immediately before giving effect to the transaction and any related Incurrence of Indebtedness; provided that this clause (3) shall not apply to a consolidation or merger of one or more Restricted Subsidiaries with
or into the Operating Partnership so long as, in connection with any such merger or consolidation, no consideration (other than Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) in the surviving Person or the Operating Partnership) shall be issued or
distributed to the holders of Capital Stock of the Operating Partnership; and 
 (4) the Operating Partnership delivers to the
Trustee an Officers’ Certificate (attaching the arithmetic computations to demonstrate compliance with clause (3), if applicable) and an Opinion of Counsel, in each case stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental
indenture complies with this provision and that all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to such transaction have been complied with; provided that clause (3) above does not apply if, in the good faith determination of the
Board of Directors, whose determination shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution, the principal purpose of such transaction is to change the state of domicile of the Operating Partnership, so long as any such transaction shall not have as one of its
purposes the evasion of the foregoing limitations. 
 Upon any consolidation or merger or any transfer of all or substantially all of
the Operating Partnership’s assets, in accordance with the foregoing, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Operating Partnership is merged or to which such transfer is made, shall succeed to, be substituted for,
and may exercise every one of the Operating Partnership’s rights and powers under the Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named therein as the Operating Partnership and, except in the case of the lease or a sale
or other transfer of less than all assets, the Operating Partnership shall be released from the obligations under the Notes. 

  
 52 








 Section 5.03. Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets by a Guarantor. No
Guarantor may merge with or into any Person, or sell, convey, transfer or dispose of all or substantially all of the Guarantor’s assets, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, to any Person (other than the Operating Partnership
or another Guarantor), unless: 
 (A) the other Person becomes a Guarantor concurrently with the transaction; or 

(B)  (1) either (x) the Guarantor is the continuing Person or (y) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person expressly
assumes by supplemental indenture (or other joinder agreement, as applicable) all of the obligations of the Guarantor under its Note Guarantee; and 

(2) immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no Default has occurred and is continuing; or 

(C) except in the case of the Company, the transaction constitutes a sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger)
of the Guarantor or the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Guarantor (in each case other than to the Operating Partnership or a Restricted Subsidiary) otherwise permitted or not prohibited by the Indenture. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantee of the Notes by a Guarantor shall be automatically released as set forth in Sections
1601(c)-(d) of the Base Indenture and Section 10.04. 
 ARTICLE 6 

DEFAULT AND REMEDIES 

Section 6.01. Applicability of Article Five of the Base Indenture. Article Five of the Base Indenture shall not apply to
the Notes. Instead, the provisions set forth in this Article 6 shall, with respect to the Notes, supersede in its entirety Article Five of the Base Indenture and all references in the Base Indenture to Article Five thereof and the provisions
therein, as the case may be, shall, with respect to the Notes, be deemed to be references to this Article 6 and the provisions set forth in this Article 6.

 (i) an event of default that has caused the holder thereof to declare such Indebtedness to be due and payable
prior to its Stated Maturity and such Indebtedness has not been discharged in full or such acceleration has not been rescinded or annulled within 30 days of such acceleration; and/or 

(ii) the failure to make a principal payment at the final (but not any interim) fixed maturity and such defaulted payment shall not have been

 (6) any final judgment or order (not covered by insurance) for the
payment of money in excess of $35 million in the aggregate for all such final judgments or orders against all such Persons (treating any deductibles, self-insurance or retention as not covered by insurance): 

(i) shall be rendered against the Operating Partnership or the Company or any Significant Subsidiary and shall not be paid or discharged; and

 (ii) there shall be any period of 60 consecutive days following entry of the final judgment or order that causes the aggregate amount for
all such final judgments or orders outstanding and not paid or discharged against all such Persons to exceed $35 

  
 54 








 
million during which a stay of enforcement of such final judgment or order, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, shall not be in effect; 

(7) a court having jurisdiction in the premises enters a decree or order for: 

(i) relief in respect of the Operating Partnership or the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case under any applicable

Company or any Significant Subsidiary 
 (i) commences a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now
or hereafter in effect, or consents to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under such law; 
 (ii) consents to the

its Guarantee of the Notes. 

  
 55 








 Section 6.03. Acceleration. (a) If an Event of Default, other than a
bankruptcy default with respect to the Operating Partnership or the Company, occurs and is continuing under the Indenture, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to
the Operating Partnership and the Company (and to the Trustee if the notice is given by the Holders), may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes to be
immediately due and payable. Upon a declaration of acceleration, such principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest will become immediately due and payable. In the event of a declaration of acceleration because an Event of Default set forth in
clause (5) above has occurred and is continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically rescinded and annulled if the Event of Default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to clause (5) shall be remedied or cured by
the Operating Partnership, the Company or the relevant Significant Subsidiary or waived by the holders of the relevant Indebtedness within 60 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto. If a bankruptcy default occurs with
respect to the Operating Partnership or the Company, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part
of the Trustee or any Holder.  
 (b) The Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written
notice to the Operating Partnership, the Company and to the Trustee may waive all past Defaults and rescind and annul a declaration of acceleration and its consequences if: 

(1) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes
that have become due solely by the declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived, and 
 (2) the rescission would
not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 Section 6.04. Other Remedies. If an
Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue, in its own name or as trustee of an express trust, any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes or to
enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or the Indenture. The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. 

  
 56 








 Section 6.05. Waiver of Past Defaults. Except as otherwise provided in
Sections Section 6.036.03, 6.08 and 9.04, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may, by notice to the Trustee, waive an existing Default and its consequences. Upon such waiver, the Default will cease to
exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom will be deemed to have been cured, but no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 6.06. Control by Majority. The Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding
Notes may 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. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with
law or the Indenture, that may involve the Trustee in personal liability, or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of Notes not joining in the giving of such direction, and may take any other
action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Notes. 

Section 6.07. Limitation on Suits. A Holder may not institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the
Indenture or the Notes, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under the Indenture or the Notes, unless: 

(1) the Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default; 

(2) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes have made written request to the Trustee to
institute proceedings in respect of the Event of Default in its own name as Trustee under the Indenture; 
 (3) such Holder
or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against any costs, liabilities or expenses to be incurred in compliance with such request; 

(4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such
proceeding; and 
 (5) during such 60-day period, the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction that is inconsistent with such written request. 

        Section 6.08. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the
right of a Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on its Note on or after the Stated 

  
 57 








 
Maturities thereof, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, may not be impaired or affected without the consent of that Holder. 

Section 6.09. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default in payment of principal or interest specified in clause
(1) or (2) of Section 6.02 occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the whole amount of principal and accrued interest remaining unpaid, together with interest on
overdue principal and overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate specified in the Notes, and such further amount as is sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amounts due the Trustee hereunder. 

Section 6.10. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may
be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee hereunder) and the
Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relating to the Operating Partnership or any Guarantor or their respective creditors or property, and is entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money, securities or other property
payable or deliverable upon conversion or exchange of the Notes or upon any such claims. Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, if the Trustee consents to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Trustee, its agent and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee hereunder. Nothing in the Indenture will be deemed to empower 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 the Notes 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. 

Section 6.11. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article, it shall pay out the money in the
following order: 
 First: to the Trustee for all amounts due hereunder; 

Second: to Holders for amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and interest on the Notes, ratably, without preference or
priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest; and 

  
 58 








 Third: to the Operating Partnership or as a court of competent jurisdiction may
direct. 
 The Trustee, upon written notice to the Operating Partnership, may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders
pursuant to this Section 6.11. 
 Section 6.12. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has
instituted a proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under the Indenture and the proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to the Holder, then, subject to any determination in
the proceeding, the Operating Partnership, any Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders will be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Operating Partnership, any
Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders will continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 

Section 6.13. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under the Indenture or in any
suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit (other than the Trustee) to file an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court may assess reasonable costs,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant (other than the Trustee) in the suit having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by
a Holder to enforce payment of principal of or interest on any Note on the respective due dates, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes. 

Section 6.14. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy conferred or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders
under the Indenture is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and all such rights and remedies are, to the extent permitted by law, cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy hereunder or now or hereafter existing at
law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or exercise of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, will not prevent the concurrent assertion or exercise of any other right or remedy. 

Section 6.15. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or
remedy accruing upon any Event of Default will impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right 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 may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 

  
 59 








 Section 6.16. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Operating
Partnership and each Guarantor covenants, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury law
or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Operating Partnership or the Guarantor 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 the Indenture. The Operating Partnership and each Guarantor hereby expressly waives, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will
not 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. 

ARTICLE 7 
 THE
TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01. General. The first paragraph of Section 601 of the Base Indenture is hereby amended
and restated in full, with respect to the Notes, to read as follows: 
 “The duties and responsibilities of the Trustee shall be as
provided by the Trust Indenture Act; provided, that (i) notwithstanding Section 315(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of any mathematical calculations or other facts, statements,
opinions or conclusions stated in the certificates or opinions referred to therein, and (ii) except during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in the Indenture and
no others, and no implied covenants or obligations will be read into the Indenture against the Trustee. In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise those rights and powers vested in it by the Indenture, and
use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this
Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.” 

ARTICLE 8 

DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE 

Section 8.01. Applicability of Article Four of the Base Indenture. Article Four of the Base Indenture shall not apply to
the Notes. Instead, the provisions set forth in this Article 8 shall, with respect to the Notes, supersede in its entirety Article Four of the Base Indenture and all references in the Base Indenture to Article Four thereof and the provisions
therein, as the case may be, shall, with respect to the Notes, be deemed to be references to this Article 8 and the provisions set forth in this Article 8. 

  
 60

(a) Subject to paragraph (b), the Operating Partnership’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture, and each Guarantor’s obligations under its Note Guarantee, will terminate if: 

(1) all Notes previously authenticated and delivered (other than (i) destroyed, lost or stolen Notes that have been
replaced or (ii) Notes that are paid pursuant to Section 1001 of the Base Indenture or (iii) Notes for whose payment money or U.S. Government Obligations have been held in trust and then repaid to the Operating Partnership pursuant to
Section 8.06) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and the Operating Partnership has paid all sums payable by it hereunder; or 

(2) (A) the Notes mature within sixty days, or all of them are to be called for redemption within sixty days under
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for giving the notice of redemption, 
 (B) the Operating Partnership irrevocably
deposits in trust with the Trustee, as trust funds solely for the benefit of the Holders, money or U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants

 (C) no Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit,

 (E) the Operating
Partnership delivers to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, in each case stating that all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture have been complied with.


  
 61 








 (b) After satisfying the conditions in clause (1), only the Operating Partnership’s
obligations under Section 606 of the Base Indenture will survive. After satisfying the conditions in clause (2), only the Operating Partnership’s obligations in Article 2 and Sections 8.06 and 8.07 and Sections 606, 608, 1001 and 1002 of
the Base Indenture will survive. In either case, the Trustee upon request will acknowledge in writing the discharge of the Operating Partnership’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture (and each Guarantor’s obligations under its
Note Guarantee) other than the surviving obligations. 
 Section 8.03. Legal Defeasance. After the 123rd day following
the deposit referred to in clause (1), the Operating Partnership will be deemed to have paid and will be discharged from its obligations in respect of the Notes and the Indenture, other than its obligations in Article 2 and Sections 8.06 and 8.07
and Sections 606, 608, 1001 and 1002 of the Base Indenture and each Guarantor’s obligations under its Note Guarantee will terminate, provided the following conditions have been satisfied:

consideration of any reinvestment, to pay principal of and accrued interest on the Notes on the Stated Maturity of such payments in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Notes. 

(2) Immediately after giving effect to the deposit referred to in clause (i) above on a pro forma basis, no Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or occur at any time during the 123-day period following the deposit. 

(3) The deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other material agreement or
instrument to which the Operating Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Operating Partnership or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is bound. 

(4) The Operating Partnership has delivered to the Trustee 

(A) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that beneficial owners will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax
purposes as a result of the Operating Partnership’s exercise of its option pursuant to this Section 8.03 and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would otherwise have been the
case if such deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred, which Opinion of Counsel must be based upon (and accompanied by a copy of) a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service to the same effect unless there has been a change in applicable
federal income tax law after the Issue Date such that a ruling is no longer required, and 

  
 62 








 (B) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (i) the creation of the
defeasance trust does not violate the Investment Operating Partnership Act of 1940, (ii) the Holders have a valid first priority Note interest in the trust funds (subject to customary exceptions), and (iii) after the passage of 123 days

Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such deposit, defeasance and discharge will not cause the Notes to be delisted. 

(6) The Operating Partnership has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, in each
case stating that all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to the defeasance have been complied with. 
 Prior to the end of
the 123-day period, none of the Operating Partnership’s obligations under the Indenture (nor any Guarantor’s obligations under its Note Guarantee) will be discharged. Thereafter, the Trustee upon request will acknowledge in writing the
discharge of the Operating Partnership’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture (and each Guarantor’s obligations under its Note Guarantee) except for the surviving obligations specified above. 

Section 8.04. Covenant Defeasance. After the 123rd day following the deposit referred to in clause (1), the Operating
Partnership’s obligations set forth in Section 4.02 through Section 4.11, inclusive, and clauses (3) and (4) of Section 5.01 will terminate and clause (3) under Section 6.01 with respect to clauses (3) and (4) of
Section 5.02, clause (4) under Section 6.02 with respect to Section 4.02 through Section 4.11, inclusive, and clauses (5) and (6) under Section 6.01 will no longer constitute Events of Default, provided the following conditions
have been satisfied: 
 (1) The Operating Partnership has complied with clauses (1), (2), (3), 4(B), (5) and
(6) of Section 8.03; and 
 (2) the Operating Partnership has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the
effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would
otherwise have been the case. 

  
 63 








 Except as specifically stated above, none of the Operating Partnership’s obligations under
the Indenture will be discharged. 
 Section 8.05. Application of Trust Money. Subject to Section 8.06, the Trustee will
hold in trust the money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited with it pursuant to Section 8.02, 8.03 or 8.04, and apply the deposited money and the proceeds from deposited U.S. Government Obligations to the payment of principal of and interest on
the Notes in accordance with the Notes and the Indenture. Such money and U.S. Government Obligations need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

Section 8.06. Repayment to Operating Partnership. Subject to Sections 8.02, 8.03 and 8.04 and Section 608 of the Base
Indenture the Trustee will promptly pay to the Operating Partnership upon request any excess money held by the Trustee at any time and thereupon be relieved from all liability with respect to such money. The Trustee will pay to the Operating
Partnership upon request any money held for payment with respect to the Notes that remains unclaimed for two years, provided that before making such payment the Trustee may at the expense of the Operating Partnership publish once in a
newspaper of general circulation in New York City, or send to each Holder entitled to such money, notice that the money remains unclaimed and that after a date specified in the notice (at least 30 days after the date of the publication or notice)
any remaining unclaimed balance of money will be repaid to the Operating Partnership. After payment to the Operating Partnership, Holders entitled to such money must look solely to the Operating Partnership for payment, unless applicable law
designates another Person, and all liability of the Trustee with respect to such money will cease. 
 Section 8.07.
Reinstatement. If and for so long as the Trustee is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations held in trust pursuant to Section 8.02, 8.03 or 8.04 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any
court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Operating Partnership’s and the Guarantor’s obligations under the Indenture and the Notes will be reinstated as though no such deposit in
trust had been made. If the Operating Partnership or a Guarantor makes any payment of principal of or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, it will be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive
such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held in trust. 

  
 64 








 ARTICLE 9 

AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS AND WAIVERS 

Section 9.01. Applicability of Article Nine of the Base Indenture. Article Nine of the Base Indenture shall not apply to
the Notes. Instead, the provisions set forth in this Article 9 shall, with respect to the Notes, supersede in its entirety Article Nine of the Base Indenture and all references in the Base Indenture to Article Nine thereof and the provisions
therein, as the case may be, shall, with respect to the Notes, be deemed to be references to this Article 9 and the provisions set forth in this Article 9. 

Section 9.02. Amendments Without Consent of Holders. The Operating Partnership, the Company and the Trustee may amend or
supplement the Indenture, the Notes and the Note Guarantees without notice to or the consent of any Noteholder 
 (1)
to cure any ambiguity, defect, omission or inconsistency in the Indenture or the Notes; 
 (2) to comply with Article 5
herein; 
 (3) to comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under
the Trust Indenture Act; 
 (4) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of an appointment hereunder by a successor
Trustee; 
 (5) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, provided that
the uncertificated Notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code, or in a manner such that the uncertificated Notes are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code; 

(6) to provide for any Guarantee of the Notes, to secure the Notes or to confirm and evidence the release, termination or
discharge of any Guarantee of or Lien securing the Notes when such release, termination or discharge is permitted by the Indenture; 

(7) to provide for the issuance of additional Notes in accordance with the terms of the Indenture; 

(8) to conform any provision of the Indenture to the “Description of the Notes” section contained in the Preliminary
Prospectus Supplement relating to the Notes dated June 2, 2015 as superseded, to the extent inconsistent, by the Pricing Term Sheet dated June 4, 2015; or 

  
 65 








 (9) to make any other change that does not materially and adversely affect the
rights of any Holder. 
 Section 9.03. Amendments With Consent of Holders. (a) Except as otherwise provided in
Sections 6.03, 6.05, 6.08 or Section 9.03(b), the Operating Partnership, the Company and the Trustee may amend the Indenture and the Notes with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes,
and the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may waive future compliance by the Operating Partnership with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes. 

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a), without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not 

(1) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Note; 

(2) reduce the principal amount of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any Note; 

(3) change the place of payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any Note; 

(4) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or after the Stated Maturity (or, in the case of a
redemption, on or after the Redemption Date) of any Note; 
 (5) reduce the above-stated percentages of outstanding Notes the
consent of whose Holders is necessary to modify or amend the Indenture; 
 (6) waive a default in the payment of principal
of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes; 
 (7) voluntarily release a Guarantor of the Notes other than in accordance
with the Indenture; 
 (8) after the time an Offer to Purchase is required to have been made under Section 4.09 or Section
4.10 reduce the purchase amount or price or extend the latest expiration date or purchase date thereunder; or 
 (9) reduce
the percentage or aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes the consent of whose Holders is necessary for waiver of compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or for waiver of certain defaults. 

  
 66 








 (c) It is not necessary for Noteholders to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment,
supplement or waiver, but is sufficient if their consent approves the substance thereof. 
 (d) An amendment, supplement or waiver under this
Section 9.03 will become effective on receipt by the Trustee of written consents from the Holders of the requisite percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Notes. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.03 becomes
effective, the Operating Partnership will send to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. The Operating Partnership will send supplemental indentures to Holders upon request. Any failure of the
Operating Partnership to send such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture or waiver. 

Section 9.04. Effect of Consent. (a) After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it will bind every
Holder unless it is of the type requiring the consent of each Holder affected. If the amendment, supplement or waiver is of the type requiring the consent of each Holder affected, the amendment, supplement or waiver will bind each Holder that has
consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Note that evidences the same debt as the Note of the consenting Holder. 

(b) If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder to deliver it to the
Trustee so that the Trustee may place an appropriate notation of the changed terms on the Note and return it to the Holder, or exchange it for a new Note that reflects the changed terms. The Trustee may also place an appropriate notation on any Note
thereafter authenticated. However, the effectiveness of the amendment, supplement or waiver is not affected by any failure to annotate or exchange Notes in this fashion. 

Section 9.05. Trustee’s Rights and Obligations. The Trustee is entitled to receive, and will be fully protected in
relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 9 is authorized or permitted by the Indenture. If the Trustee has received such an Opinion of Counsel, it shall
sign the amendment, supplement or waiver so long as the same does not adversely affect the rights of the Trustee. The Trustee may, but is not obligated to, execute any amendment, supplement or waiver that affects the Trustee’s own rights,
duties or immunities under the Indenture. 
 Section 9.06. Conformity With Trust Indenture Act. Every supplemental

provisions of the Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid or agreed to be paid to all Holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend such term or provision within the time period set forth in the
solicitation documents relating to the consent, waiver or amendment. 
 ARTICLE 10 

GUARANTEES 

Section 10.01. The Guarantees. The provisions of Article Sixteen of the Base Indenture shall apply to the Notes. The
Guarantors hereto hereby agree to perform all of the obligations and agreements of a “Guarantor” as defined in the Base Indenture. 

Section 10.02. Limitation on Amount of Guarantee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 10 and Article
Sixteen of the Base Indenture, each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent conveyance under
applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of state law. To effectuate that intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of
each Guarantor under its Note Guarantee are limited to the maximum amount that would not render the Guarantor’s obligations subject to avoidance under applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any
comparable provision of state law. 
 Section 10.03. Execution and Delivery of Guarantee. The execution by each
Guarantor of the Indenture (or a supplemental indenture substantially in the form of Exhibit B) evidences the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor, whether or not the person signing as an officer of the Guarantor still holds that office at
the time of authentication of any Note. The delivery of any Note by the Trustee after authentication constitutes due delivery of the Note Guarantee set forth in the Indenture on behalf of each Guarantor. 

Section 10.04. Release of Guarantee. (a) The Note Guarantee of a Guarantor other than the Company will automatically
terminate upon: 
 (1) a sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of the Guarantor, or
the Capital Stock of the Guarantor such that the Guarantor is no longer a Subsidiary, or the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Guarantor (other than to the Operating Partnership or a Restricted Subsidiary) otherwise
permitted or not prohibited by the Indenture, 

  
 68 








 (2) the release of the Guarantees of all other Indebtedness by such Guarantor,
unless at the time of such release a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under the Indenture; 

(3) the designation in accordance with the Indenture of the Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, or 

(4) defeasance or discharge of the Notes, as provided in Section 8.01, Section 8.03 or Section 8.04. 

(b) The Note Guarantee of the Company will automatically terminate upon: 

(1) the release of the Guarantees of all other Indebtedness by the Company, unless at the time of such release a Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing under the Indenture; or 
 (2) defeasance or discharge of the Notes, as provided in Section 8.02,
Section 8.03 or Section 8.04. 
 (c) In addition, if on any date following the Issue Date, the Notes are rated Investment
Grade by both Rating Agencies, and in connection therewith each Rating Agency received written information from the Operating Partnership stating that the release of all of the Guarantees will occur upon an Investment Grade rating, and no Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under the Indenture on the date of such release, then, beginning on that date, the Guarantors will be automatically released from their obligations under the Guarantees; provided that as
soon as possible following a Reinstatement Date, the Company and each of the Operating Partnership’s Restricted Subsidiaries who would have been required to Guarantee the Notes but for the foregoing, shall execute and deliver a supplemental
indenture to the Indenture providing for the reinstatement of the Note Guarantee by the Company and a Subsidiary Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary. 

(d) Upon delivery by the Operating Partnership to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the foregoing
effect, the Trustee will execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of the Guarantor from its obligations under its Note Guarantee.

 ARTICLE 11 

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 11.01. Execution as Supplemental Indenture. This First Supplemental Indenture is executed and shall be construed as
an indenture supplemental to the Base Indenture and, as provided in the Base Indenture, this First Supplemental Indenture forms a part thereof. 

Section 11.02. Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another
provision hereof, or with a provision of the Base Indenture, or with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act, which is required to be included in this First Supplemental Indenture, or in the Base Indenture, respectively, by any of the provisions of
the Trust Indenture Act, such required provision shall control to the extent it is applicable. If any provision hereof modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act which may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be
deemed to apply to this First Supplemental Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be.

Guarantor in the Indenture and the Notes will bind its successors. All agreements of the Trustee in the Indenture will bind its successor. 

Section 11.06. Duplicate Originals. The parties may sign any number of copies of the Indenture. Each signed copy shall be
an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. 
 Section 11.07. Separability. In case any

been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part of the Indenture and in no way modify or restrict any of the terms and provisions of the Indenture.

otherwise in respect thereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Operating Partnership or the Company in the Indenture, or in any of the Notes or because of the creation of any Indebtedness represented
thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, partner, stockholder, officer, director, employee or controlling person of the Operating Partnership, the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors or of any successor Person thereof in their capacity as
such. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.” 
 Section 11.10. Trustee Not
Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Notes. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes, except the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Operating Partnership, and neither the Trustee nor
any Authenticating Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this First Supplemental Indenture or of the Notes, except that the Trustee represents that it is
duly authorized to execute and deliver this First Supplemental Indenture, authenticate the Notes and perform its obligations hereunder. Neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the Operating
Partnership of the Notes or the proceeds thereof.

DUPONT FABROS TECHNOLOGY, L.P. 

5.625% Senior Note Due 2023 
  

	1.	Principal and Interest. 

 The Operating Partnership promises to pay the principal of
this Note on June 15, 2023. 
 The Operating Partnership promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note on each interest
payment date, as set forth on the face of this Note, at the rate of 5.625% per annum. 
 Interest will be payable semiannually (to the
Holders of record of the Notes at the close of business on the June 1 or December 1 immediately preceding the interest payment date) on each interest payment date, commencing December 15, 2015. 

Interest on this Note will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on this Note (or, if there is no existing default
in the payment of interest and if this Note is authenticated between a regular record date and the next interest payment date, from such interest payment date) or, if no interest has been paid, from [the Issue Date].1 Interest will be computed in the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 The
Operating Partnership will pay interest on overdue principal, premium, if any, and interest at a rate per annum of 5.625%. Interest not paid when due and any interest on principal, premium or interest not paid when due will be paid to the Persons
that are Holders on a special record date, which will be the 15th day preceding the date fixed by the Operating Partnership for the payment of such interest, whether or not such day is a Business Day. At least 15 days before a special record date,
the Operating Partnership will send to each Holder and to the Trustee a notice that sets forth the special record date, the payment date and the amount of interest to be paid.

Indenture, dated as of June 9, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Operating
Partnership, the Guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee. Capitalized terms used herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and
those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of all such terms. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture will control. 

The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Operating Partnership. The original principal amount of the Notes is $250,000,000, but the
Operating Partnership may, without the consent of holders of the Notes, increase the principal amount of the Notes by issuing additional Notes in the future on the same terms and conditions as the existing Notes, except for any difference in the
issue price, issue date, interest accrued prior to the issue date of the additional Notes, and, if applicable, the first Interest Payment Date and the initial interest accrual date, and with the same CUSIP number as the existing Notes so long as
such additional Notes are fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with the existing Notes. This Note is guaranteed as set forth in the Indenture. 
  

	3.	Redemption and Repurchase; Discharge Prior to Redemption or Maturity. 

 This Note is
subject to optional redemption, and may be the subject of an Offer to Purchase, as further described in the Indenture. There is no sinking fund applicable to this Note. 

If the Operating Partnership deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations sufficient to pay the then outstanding principal
of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, the Operating Partnership may in certain circumstances be discharged from the Indenture and the Notes or may be discharged from certain of its obligations under
certain provisions of the Indenture. 
  

	4.	Registered Form; Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. 

 The Notes are in registered form
without coupons in denominations of $2,000 in principal amount and any higher integral multiple of $1,000. A Holder may register the transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Trustee may require a Holder to furnish
appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. Pursuant to the Indenture, there are certain periods during which the Trustee will not be required to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange any Note or certain portions of a Note. 

  
 A-5 









	5.	Defaults and Remedies. 

 If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, occurs and
is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable. If a bankruptcy default with respect to the Operating Partnership or the Company occurs and is continuing,
the Notes automatically become due and payable. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Notes. Subject to
certain limitations, Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of remedies. 
  

	6.	Amendment and Waiver. 

 Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture and the Notes may be
amended, or default may be waived, with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes. Without notice to or the consent of any Holder, the Operating Partnership, Company and the Trustee may amend or
supplement the Indenture or the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect, omission or inconsistency. 
  

	7.	Authentication. 

 This Note is not valid until the Trustee (or Authenticating Agent)
signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note. 
  

	8.	Governing Law. 

 This Note shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the
laws of the State of New York. 
  

	9.	Abbreviations.

assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian) and U/G/M/A/ (= Uniform Gifts to
