 IMPORTANT NOTICE 

The Trust will furnish to any shareholder, on request and without charge, a full statement of the information required by
Section 8-203(d) of the Corporations and Associations Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland with respect to the designations and any preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and
other distributions, qualifications, and terms and conditions of redemption of the shares of each class of beneficial interest which the Trust has authority to issue and, if the Trust is authorized to issue any preferred or special class in series,
(i) the differences in the relative rights and preferences between the shares of each series to the extent set, and (ii) the authority of the Board of Trustees to set such rights and preferences of subsequent series. The foregoing summary
does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Declaration of Trust, a copy of which will be sent without charge to each shareholder who so requests. Such request must be made to the Secretary of
the Trust at its principal office or to the Transfer Agent. 
 The shares evidenced by this certificate are subject to restrictions on
Beneficial and Constructive Ownership and Transfer for the purpose, among others, of the Trust’s maintenance of its status as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”). Subject to certain further restrictions and except as expressly provided in the Trust’s Declaration of Trust, (i) no Person may Beneficially or Constructively Own Common Shares of the Trust in excess of the Common Share
Ownership Limit unless such Person is an Excepted Holder (in which case the Excepted Holder Limit shall be applicable); (ii) no Person may Beneficially or Constructively Own Equity Shares of the Trust in excess of the Aggregate Share Ownership
Limit, unless such Person is an Excepted Holder (in which case the Excepted Holder Limit shall be applicable); (iii) no Person may Beneficially or Constructively Own Equity Shares that would result in the Trust being “closely held”
under Section 856(h) of the Code or otherwise cause the Trust to fail to qualify as a REIT; (iv) no Person may Transfer Equity Shares if such Transfer would result in Equity Shares of the Trust being owned by fewer than 100 Persons;
(v) no Person may Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Equity Shares that could result in the Trust failing to qualify as a “domestically controlled qualified investment entity” under Section 897(h)(4)(B) of the Code; and
(vi) no Person shall Constructively Own Equity Shares to the extent that such Constructive Ownership would cause any income of the Trust that would otherwise qualify as “rents from real property” for purposes of Section 856(d) of
the Code to fail to qualify as such. Any Person who Beneficially or Constructively Owns or attempts to Beneficially or Constructively Own Equity Shares which cause or will cause a Person to Beneficially or Constructively Own Equity Shares in excess
or in violation of the above limitations must immediately notify the Trust. If any of the restrictions on transfer or ownership described above are violated, the Equity Shares in excess or in violation of the above limitations will be automatically
transferred to a Trustee of a Charitable Trust for the benefit of one or more Charitable Beneficiaries. In addition, the Trust may redeem shares upon the terms and conditions specified by the Board of Trustees in its sole and absolute discretion if
the Board of Trustees determines that ownership or Transfer or other event may violate the restrictions described above. Furthermore, upon the occurrence of certain events, attempted Transfers in violation of the restrictions described above may be
void ab initio. All capitalized terms in this legend have the meanings defined in the Trust’s Declaration of Trust, as the same may be amended from time to time, a copy of which, including the restrictions on transfer and
ownership, will be furnished to each holder of Equity Shares of the Trust on request and without charge. Requests for such a copy may be directed to the Secretary of the Trust at its Principal Office. 

KEEP THIS CERTIFICATE IN A SAFE PLACE. IF IT IS LOST, STOLEN 

OR DESTROYED, THE TRUST WILL REQUIRE A BOND OF INDEMNITY AS A 

CONDITION TO THE ISSUANCE OF A REPLACEMENT CERTIFICATE.
