solicit any offer to buy, sell or make any offer or sale of, or otherwise negotiate in 

  
 - 20 -









 
respect of, securities of the Company or the Operating Partnership of any class if, as a result of the doctrine of “integration” referred to in Rule 502 under the Securities Act, such
offer or sale would render invalid (for the purpose of (i) the sale of the Securities by the Operating Partnership to the Initial Purchasers, (ii) the resale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to subsequent purchasers or

Securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, while any of the Securities remain outstanding, the Transaction Entities will make available, upon request, to any holder of Securities or prospective purchasers of

(3) Restriction on Repurchases. Until the expiration of one year after the original issuance of the Securities, the
Transaction Entities will not, and will cause their respective Affiliates not to, acquire any Securities which are “restricted securities” (as such term is defined under Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act), whether as beneficial owner
or otherwise (except as agent acting as a securities broker on behalf of and for the account of customers in the ordinary course of business in unsolicited broker’s transactions), unless, immediately upon the acquisition of such Securities, the
Company, the Operating Partnership or such Affiliate, as the case may be, shall submit such Securities to the Trustee for cancellation.

or supplement the Offering Memorandum in order that the Offering Memorandum not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading in the light

amendments of, or a supplement or supplements to, the Offering Memorandum (in form and substance satisfactory in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Initial Purchasers) so that, as so amended or supplemented, the Offering Memorandum will not

 C. Amendment and Supplements to the Offering Memorandum; Preparation of Pricing Supplement; Supplemental Offering
Materials. The Transaction Entities will advise each Initial Purchaser promptly of any proposal to amend or supplement the Offering Memorandum and will not effect such amendment or supplement without the consent of the Initial Purchasers
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) other than filings required to be made with the Commission in order to comply with the Exchange Act and the Exchange Act Regulations (“1934 Act Filings”), provided that such 1934 Act
Filings are first provided to the Initial Purchasers a reasonable time in advance of the filing thereof. Neither the consent of the Initial Purchasers, the Initial Purchasers’ delivery of any such amendment or supplement, nor the
furnishing to the Initial Purchasers of any such 1934 Act Filings shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section 5 hereof. The Transaction Entities will prepare the Pricing Supplement, in form and
substance satisfactory to the Representatives, and shall furnish prior to the Applicable Time to each Initial Purchaser, without charge, as many physical or electronic copies of the Pricing Supplement as such Initial Purchaser may reasonably
request. Each of the Transaction Entities, jointly and severally, represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Representatives, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities by means of any
Supplemental Offering Materials. 
 D. Qualification of Securities for Offer and Sale. The Transaction Entities
will use their best efforts, in cooperation with the Initial Purchasers, to qualify the Securities for offering and sale, or to obtain a valid exemption for the Securities to be offered and sold, under the applicable securities laws, including real
estate syndication laws, of such states and other jurisdictions as the Initial Purchasers may designate and to maintain such qualifications and exemptions in effect as long as required for the sale of the Securities; provided, however,
that none of the Transaction Entities shall be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign entity or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to subject itself to
taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject. 
 E. DTC. The
Transaction Entities will cooperate with the Initial Purchasers and use their commercially reasonable efforts to permit the Securities to be eligible for clearance and settlement through the facilities of DTC. 

F. Use of Proceeds. The Transaction Entities will apply the net proceeds received by the Operating Partnership from the sale
of the Securities in the manner specified in the Offering Memorandum under “Use of Proceeds.” 

  
 - 22 -









 G. Restriction on Sale of Securities. During the period commencing on the date
hereof and ending at the Closing Time, none of the Transaction Entities will, without the prior written consent of the Representatives (which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of the Representatives), directly or indirectly issue,
offer, sell, contract to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant or sell any option, right or warrant to purchase, or establish an open “put equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act, or otherwise dispose of,
or contract to dispose of, or file a registration statement under the Securities Act or prospectus supplement with respect to any outstanding registration statement with the Commission with respect to, any debt securities of the Company, the
Operating Partnership or any of their respective subsidiaries substantially similar to the Securities or any other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Securities or debt securities similar to the Securities.

 H. Notification of Certain Events. Prior to the Closing Time, each of the Transaction Entities will notify the
Initial Purchasers in writing immediately if any event occurs that renders any of the representations and warranties of the Transaction Entities contained herein inaccurate or incomplete. 

I. Tax Qualification. The Company will use its best efforts to enable the Company to continue to meet the requirements for
qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code for each of its taxable years for so long as the Board of Directors deems it in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to remain so qualified. The Transaction Entities will use
their best efforts to enable the Operating Partnership to be treated as a partnership or an entity disregarded as separate from the Company for federal income tax purposes and not as a publicly traded partnership within the meaning of section
7704(b) of the Code that is treated as an association taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. 
 J.
Compliance with Laws. Until the offering of the Securities and the Exchange Offer are complete, the Company will (1) comply with all provisions of the Securities Act and the Securities Act Regulations and the Exchange Act and
Exchange Act Regulations and (2) file all documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act within the time periods required by the Exchange Act and the Exchange Act Regulations. 

K. Investment Company. The Company will take such steps as shall be necessary to ensure that none of the Transaction
Entities shall become an “investment company” within the meaning of such term under the Investment Company Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. 

L. Copies of Documents. The Company will furnish the Representatives with such conformed copies of such opinions,
certificates, letters and documents referred to in Section 5 here as the Representatives may reasonably request. 

5. Conditions of the Obligations of the Initial Purchasers. The obligations of the several Initial Purchasers to
purchase and pay for the Securities at the Closing Time will be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Transaction Entities herein, to the accuracy of the statements of Transaction Entity officers made
pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Transaction Entities of their respective obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions precedent: 

  
 - 23 -









 A. Accountant’s Letter. The Representatives shall have received letters
at the time of execution of this Agreement and at the Closing Time of Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) dated, respectively, the date hereof and the Closing Time, and addressed to the Representatives in the forms
heretofore approved by the Representatives containing statements and information of the type ordinarily included in accountants’ “comfort letters” with respect to the financial statements and certain other financial information
contained or incorporated within the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, except that with respect to the letter received at the Closing Time, the specified “Cut-off date” referred to therein shall not be more than three
(3) business days prior to the Closing Time. 
 B. Subsequent Events. Subsequent to the execution and delivery
of this Agreement, and since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, there shall not have occurred: 
 (1) any change, or any development or event involving a prospective change, in the condition (financial or other), business, properties, earnings, results of operations or prospects of the Transaction
Entities and the Subsidiaries taken as one enterprise, whether or not in the ordinary course, which, individually or in the aggregate, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, is material and adverse and makes it impractical or inadvisable to
proceed with completion of the offering or the sale of and payment for the Securities; 
 (2) any change in U.S. or international
financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls as would, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, be likely to prejudice materially the success of the proposed issue, sale or distribution of the
Securities, whether in the primary market or in respect of dealings in the secondary market; 
 (3) any suspension or limitation
of trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, or any setting of minimum prices for trading on such exchange; 
 (4) any suspension of trading of any securities of the Transaction Entities on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market; 
 (5) any banking moratorium declared by U.S. federal or New York state authorities; 

(6) any major disruption of settlements of securities or clearance services in the United States; 

(7) any attack on, outbreak or escalation of hostilities or act of terrorism involving the United States, any declaration of war by
Congress or any other national or international calamity, crisis or emergency if, in the judgment of the Representatives, the effect of any such attack, outbreak, escalation, act, declaration, calamity, crisis or emergency makes it impractical or
inadvisable to proceed with completion of the offering or the sale and delivery of the Securities; or 

  
 - 24 -









 (8) any downgrading, nor shall any notice have been given of any intended or potential
downgrading or of any review for a possible change that does not indicate the direction of the possible change in the rating accorded any securities of the Transaction Entities or Subsidiaries by any “nationally recognized statistical rating
organization” as such term is defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act. 
 C. Issuer’s Counsel’s
Opinion. The Representatives shall have received opinions, each dated as of the Closing Time, of O’Melveny & Myers LLP, counsel for the Transaction Entities, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Representatives and their counsel, substantially similar to the forms attached as Exhibit A and Exhibit B hereto. 

D. Initial Purchasers’ Counsel’s Opinion. At the Closing Time, the Representatives shall have received from
Hunton & Williams LLP, counsel for the Initial Purchasers, such opinion or opinions, dated as of the Closing Time, with respect to such matters as the Representatives may require, and the Transaction Entities shall have furnished to such
counsel such documents as they reasonably request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters. 
 E.
Officers’ Certificates. Each Transaction Entity shall have furnished the Representatives a certificate, dated as of the Closing Time, of its or its general partner’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer in
which such officers shall state that, to the best of their knowledge after reasonable investigation: 
 (1) the representations
and warranties of the Transaction Entities in this Agreement (A) to the extent such representations and warranties are subject to qualifications and exceptions contained therein relating to materiality or Material Adverse Effect (as defined in
the Agreement), are true and correct on and as of the date hereof with the same force and effect as if expressly made on and as of the date hereof, except for those representations and warranties that speak solely as of a specific date and which
were true and correct as of such date, and (B) to the extent such representations and warranties are not subject to any qualifications or exceptions, are true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof as if made on and as of
the date hereof with the same force and effect as if expressly made on and as of the date hereof, except for those representations and warranties that speak solely as of a specific date and which were true and correct in all material respects as of
such date; 
 (2) the Transaction Entities have complied with all agreements and satisfied all conditions on their part to be
performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior to the Closing Time; and 
 (3) since the respective dates as of which information
is given in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, there has been no Material Adverse Effect, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business. 

  
 - 25 -









 F. Indenture and Registration Rights Agreement. At or prior to the Closing
Time, each of the Transaction Entities and the Trustee shall have executed and delivered the Indenture and the Transaction Entities and the Representatives shall have executed and delivered the Registration Rights Agreement. 

G. Satisfaction of Other Conditions. At the Closing Time, counsel for the Initial Purchasers shall have been furnished with
such other documents as they may reasonably require for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon the issuance and sale of the Securities as herein contemplated and related proceedings, or in order to evidence the accuracy of any of the
representations or warranties, or the fulfillment of any of the conditions, herein contained; and all proceedings taken by the Transaction Entities in connection with the issuance and sale of the Securities as herein contemplated shall be
satisfactory in form and substance to the Initial Purchasers and counsel for the Initial Purchasers. 
 H. Satisfaction of
Initial Purchasers’ Counsel. All opinions, letters, evidence and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be deemed to be in compliance with the provisions hereof only if they are in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Initial Purchasers. 
 I. Waiver of Compliance. The Representatives may
in their sole discretion waive on behalf of the Initial Purchasers compliance with any conditions to the obligations of the Initial Purchasers hereunder. 
 6. Indemnification and Contribution. 
 A. The Transaction
Entities, jointly and severally, will indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its partners, members, directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents and each person, if any, who controls such Initial Purchaser within the meaning of
the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, joint or several, to which any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or
regulation or at common law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the
Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Memorandum, in each case as amended or supplemented, or any Supplemental Offering Materials, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse each indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or expense as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that no Transaction Entity will be liable in any such case to
the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with
the Initial Purchaser Content. 

  
 - 26 -









 B. Each Initial Purchaser severally and not jointly will indemnify and hold harmless each
Transaction Entity, its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the such Transaction Entity within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which any
of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation or at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Memorandum, in each case as amended or
supplemented, or any Supplemental Offering Materials, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to any Transaction Entity by such Initial Purchaser through the Representatives specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by each indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending
any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or expense as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished on behalf of each of the Initial Purchasers consists of the third paragraph, the third and
fourth sentence of the tenth paragraph, the first sentence of the eleventh paragraph and the second sentence of the twelfth paragraph appearing under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in the Offering Memorandum (the “Initial
Purchaser Content”). 
 C. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the
commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under Section 6.A or 6.B above, notify, in writing, the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party under Section 6.A or 6.B above unless and to the extent such failure results in the
forfeiture by the indemnifying party of material substantive rights and defenses. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will
be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party to represent the
indemnified party and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 6 hereof, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not
be liable to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, if indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 6.A hereof in respect to such action or proceeding, then, the indemnifying party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of not more
than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the indemnified parties. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in
respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity 

  
 - 27 -









 
could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are
the subject matter of such action, (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an indemnified party, and (iii) does not include any undertaking or obligation to act
or to refrain from acting by the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (as
specified in Section 6 hereof), such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by this Section 6.C effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered
into more than 60 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 45 days prior to such settlement being entered into and
(iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party (as specified in this Section 6.C) all amounts reasonably owed in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. 

D. If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under
Section 6.A or 6.B above for any reason, then each indemnifying party (with respect to the Transaction Entities, jointly and severally) shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in Section 6.A or 6.B above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Transaction Entities on the one hand and the
Initial Purchasers on the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Transaction Entities on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Transaction Entities on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as
the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Transaction Entities bear to the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers under this Agreement. The relative fault shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Transaction Entities or the Initial
Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses referred to in the first sentence of this Section 6.D shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim
which is the subject of this Section 6.D. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.D, no Initial Purchaser (except as may be provided in any agreement among Initial Purchasers relating to the offering of the Securities)
shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the discount or commission applicable to the Securities purchased by such Initial Purchaser hereunder. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be 

  
 - 28 -









 
entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Initial Purchasers’ obligations in this Section 6.D to contribute are
several in proportion to their respective obligations and not joint. The Transaction Entities and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or another method of
allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. 
 E. The obligations of the Transaction
Entities under this Section shall be in addition to any liability that the Transaction Entities may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each partner, member, director, officer, employee or agent of any Initial
Purchaser and any person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act; and the obligations of the Initial Purchasers under this Section shall be in addition to any liability that the
respective Initial Purchasers may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each director of any Transaction Entity, to each officer and to each person, if any, who controls any Transaction Entity within the meaning of
the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. 
 7. Default of Initial Purchasers. If any Initial Purchaser or
Initial Purchasers default in their obligations to purchase Securities hereunder at the Closing Time and the total principal amount of Securities that such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase does not
exceed 10% of the total principal amount of Securities that the Initial Purchasers are obligated to purchase at the Closing Time, the Representatives may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Securities by other
persons, including any of the Initial Purchasers, but if no such arrangements are made by the Closing Time, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the
Securities that such defaulting Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase at the Closing Time. If any Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers so default and the total principal amount of Securities with respect to which such default or
defaults occur exceeds 10% of the total principal amount of Securities that the Initial Purchasers are obligated to purchase at the Closing Time and arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives and the Company for the purchase of such Securities
by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or any Transaction Entity, except as provided in Section 6 above.
As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” includes any person substituted for an Initial Purchaser under this Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability for its
default. 
 8. Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated or this
Agreement is terminated, the Company agrees to pay or cause to be paid the following: (1) the fees, disbursements and expenses of the Company’s counsel and accountants in connection with the preparation and printing of the Disclosure
Package or any Offering Memorandum, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and the mailing and delivering of copies thereof and of the Disclosure Package or any Offering Memorandum, or any amendment or supplement thereto, to the Initial Purchasers
and dealers; (2) the printing and delivery (including postage, air freight charges and charges for counting and packaging) of such copies of the Disclosure Package or any Offering Memorandum, or any amendment or


  
 - 29 -









 
supplement thereto, any Blue Sky memoranda, this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements and all amendments or supplements to any of them as may be reasonably requested for use in connection
with the offering and sale of the Securities; (3) all expenses in connection with the qualification of the Securities for offering and sale under state securities laws or Blue Sky laws, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
out-of-pocket expenses of the counsel for the Initial Purchasers in connection therewith, not to exceed $10,000 in the aggregate; (4) the filing fees and reasonable attorneys’ fees incident to securing any required review by FINRA of the
fairness of the terms of the sale of the Securities in an amount not to exceed $10,000; (5) the cost of issuing and delivering the Securities and Exchange Notes, including printing costs; (6) the costs and charges of the Trustee, any other
trustee, transfer agent or registrar; (7) the cost of all transfer taxes, if any, imposed in connection with the issuance and delivery of the Securities to the respective Initial Purchasers; and (8) the transportation, lodging, graphics
and other expenses incidental to the Company’s preparation for and participation in any “roadshow” for the offering contemplated hereby, but not the fees and expenses of the Initial Purchasers or their counsel. Except as
provided in clauses (3) and (4) of this Section and in Section 9 hereof, the Initial Purchasers shall pay their own expenses, including the fees and disbursements of their counsel. 

9. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations,
warranties and other statements of the Transaction Entities or their respective officers and of the several Initial Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or
statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser, the Transaction Entities or any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of and payment for
the Securities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7 hereof or if for any reason the purchase of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers is not consummated, the Company shall remain responsible for the expenses
to be paid or reimbursed by it pursuant to Section 4 and Section 8 hereof, and the respective obligations of the Transaction Entities and the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Section 6 hereof shall remain in effect,
and if any Securities have been purchased hereunder the representations and warranties in Section 1 and all obligations under Section 4 shall also remain in effect. If the purchase of the Securities by the Initial
Purchasers is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7 or the occurrence of any event specified in Sections 5.B(2), 5.B(3), 5.B(5),
5.B(6), or 5.B(7), the Company will reimburse the Initial Purchasers for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the
Securities. 
 10. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the Initial
Purchasers, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to the Representatives, c/o Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, 550 South Tryon Street, Charlotte, NC 28202, Attention: Transaction Management, Facsimile: 704-410-0326, with a copy to

 11. Successors. This Agreement
will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 6 hereof, and no other person will have any right or
obligation hereunder. 
 12. No Fiduciary Relationship. The Transaction Entities acknowledge and
agree that (a) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the offering price of the Securities and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction
between the Transaction Entities, on the one hand, and the several Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, (b) in connection with the offering contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction each Initial Purchaser is and has been
acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Company or the Operating Partnership, or its stockholders, partners, creditors, employees or any other party, (c) no Initial Purchaser has assumed or will assume an advisory
or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or the Operating Partnership with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Initial Purchaser has advised or is currently advising the
Company or the Operating Partnership on other matters) and no Initial Purchaser has any obligation to the Company or the Operating Partnership with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this
Agreement, (d) the Initial Purchasers and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of each of the Transaction Entities, and (e) the Initial Purchasers have
not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Transaction Entities have consulted with their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent the Transaction
Entities deemed appropriate. 
 13. Representation of Initial Purchasers. The Representatives will
act for the several Initial Purchasers in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and any action under this Agreement taken by the Representatives will be binding upon all the Initial Purchasers. 

14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed
to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement. 
 15. Research Analyst
Independence. The Transaction Entities acknowledge that the Initial Purchasers’ research analysts and research departments are required to be independent from its investment banking division and is subject to certain regulations and
internal policies, and that Initial Purchasers’ research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish research reports with respect to the Company and/or the


  
 - 31 -









 
offering that differ from the views of their respective investment banking divisions. To the extent it is not a violation of public policy or applicable law, the Transaction Entities hereby waive
and release any claims that the Transaction Entities may have against the Initial Purchasers with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by its research analysts and research department may be
different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to the Transaction Entities by the Initial Purchasers’ investment banking division. The Transaction Entities acknowledge that each Initial Purchaser is a full service
securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities of the Company and any
other companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

the parties hereto (on its behalf and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on behalf of its partners, stockholders, members, and affiliates) hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to
