 7.50% SERIES F CUMULATIVE REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK 
  
 Kilroy Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies to the State Department of Assessments and Taxation
of Maryland (the “Department”) that: 
  
 FIRST: Pursuant to the authority expressly vested in the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) by Article IV of the Articles of Amendment and Restatement of the Company filed with the
Department on January 21, 1997, as amended and supplemented (the “Charter”), and Section 2-105 of the Maryland General Corporation Law (the “MGCL”), the Board of Directors, by resolutions duly adopted on September
30, 2004, has authorized the classification and designation of up to 4,600,000 shares of the authorized but unissued preferred stock of the Company, par value $.01 per share (“Preferred Stock”), as a separate class of Preferred
Stock and the issuance of a maximum of 4,600,000 shares of such class of Preferred Stock, and pursuant to the powers contained in the Bylaws of the Company and the MGCL, appointed a committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of
Directors and delegated to the Committee, to the fullest extent permitted by the MGCL and the Charter and Bylaws of the Company, all powers of the Board of Directors with respect to classifying, designating, and setting the preferences, conversion
and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption and other terms and conditions of, such class of Preferred Stock, and determining the number of
shares of such class of Preferred Stock (not in excess of the aforesaid maximum number) to be classified and issued and the consideration and other terms and conditions upon which such shares of such class of Preferred Stock are to be issued.

  
 SECOND: Pursuant to the authority conferred upon the
Committee as aforesaid, the Committee has unanimously adopted resolutions classifying and designating 3,450,000 shares of the authorized but unissued Preferred Stock as a separate class of Preferred Stock to be known as the “7.50% Series F
Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock,” setting the preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications, terms and conditions of redemption and other terms and conditions of such
7.50% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock and authorizing the issuance of up to 3,450,000 shares of 7.50% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. 
  
 THIRD: The designation, number of shares, preferences, rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to
dividends and other distributions, qualifications, terms and conditions of redemption and other terms and conditions of the separate class of Preferred Stock of the Company designated as 7.50% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock are as
follows (the “Series F Terms”), which upon any restatement of the Charter shall be made a part of or incorporated by reference into the Charter with any necessary or appropriate changes to the enumeration or lettering of sections or
subsections thereof: 
  
 Section 1. Designation and
Number. A series of Preferred Stock, designated the “7.50% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock” (the “Series F Preferred Stock”) is hereby established. The number of shares of Series F Preferred Stock shall
be 3,450,000. 
  
 Section 2. Rank. The Series F Preferred
Stock will, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company, rank: (i) senior to all classes or series of the Company’s common stock, par value $.01 per share (the
“Common Stock”), the Company’s Series B Junior Participating Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) and all classes or series of equity securities of the Company now or hereafter authorized, issued or
outstanding expressly designated as ranking junior to the Series 

 F Preferred Stock as to dividend rights and rights upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, winding-up or dissolution
of the Company; (ii) on parity with the Company’s 8.075% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), 9.250% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series D Preferred
Stock”), 7.80% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series E Preferred Stock”) and any class or series of equity securities of the Company expressly designated as ranking on a parity with the Series F
Preferred Stock as to dividend rights and rights upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company; and (iii) junior to any class or series of equity securities of the Company expressly designated as ranking senior
to the Series F Preferred Stock as to dividend rights and rights upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company. For purposes of these Articles Supplementary (which upon any restatement of the Charter shall be
referred to, where appropriate, as the Series F Terms), the term “Parity Preferred Stock” shall be used to refer to the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock, the Series E Preferred Stock and any class or series of
equity securities of the Company now or hereafter authorized, issued or outstanding expressly designated by the Company to rank on a parity with Series F Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon voluntary or involuntary
liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company. The term “equity securities” does not include debt securities, which will rank senior to the Series F Preferred Stock prior to conversion. 
  
 Section 3. Dividends. 
  
 (a) Payment of Dividends. Subject to the rights of holders of Parity
Preferred Stock as to the payment of dividends and holders of equity securities ranking senior to the Series F Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends, holders of Series F Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by
the Board of Directors, out of funds legally available to the Company for the payment of dividends, cumulative preferential cash dividends at the rate per annum of 7.50% of the $25 liquidation preference per share of Series F Preferred Stock. All
dividends shall be cumulative, shall accrue from the original date of issuance and shall be payable (i) quarterly (such quarterly periods for purposes of payment and accrual will be the quarterly periods ending on the dates specified in this
sentence and not calendar quarters) in arrears, on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing on the first of such dates to occur after the original date of issuance and, (ii) in the event of a redemption, on the
redemption date (each a “Dividend Payment Date”). The amount of the dividend payable for any period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, and, for any period shorter than a full
quarterly period for which dividends are computed, the amount of the dividend payable will be prorated and computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in such a period to ninety (90) days. If any date on which dividends are to be made
on the Series F Preferred Stock is not a Business Day (as defined herein), then payment of the dividend to be made on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of
any such delay) except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date. Dividends on the
Series F Preferred Stock will be made to the holders of record of the Series F Preferred Stock at the close of business on the relevant record dates, which, unless designated otherwise by the Board of Directors with respect to any dividend, will be
fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the relevant Dividend Payment Date (each a “Dividend Record Date”). Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, each outstanding share of Series F Preferred Stock shall be
entitled to receive, and shall receive a dividend with respect to any Dividend Record Date equal to the dividend paid with respect to each other share of Series F Preferred Stock which is outstanding on such date. 
  
 The term “Business Day” shall mean each day, other than a
Saturday or a Sunday, which is not a day on which banking institutions in New York, New York are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close. 
  
 (b) Limitations on Dividends. No dividends on the Series F Preferred Stock shall be declared by the Board of
Directors or paid or set apart for payment by the Company at such time as the terms and provisions of any agreement of the Company, including any agreement relating to its indebtedness, prohibits such declaration, payment or setting apart for
payment or provides that such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment would constitute a breach thereof or a default thereunder, or if such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment shall be restricted or prohibited by law.

  
 (c) Dividends Cumulative. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, dividends on the Series F Preferred Stock will accrue whether or not the terms and provisions set forth in Section 3(b) hereof at any time prohibit the current payment of dividends, whether or not the Company has earnings, whether or not
there are funds legally available for the payment of such dividends and whether or not authorized or declared by the Board of Directors. Accrued but unpaid dividends on the Series F Preferred Stock will accumulate as of the Dividend Payment Date on
which they 
  

 2 

 first become payable. No interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, shall be payable in respect of any dividends on
the Series F Preferred stock which may be in arrears. Any dividend made on the Series F Preferred Stock shall first be credited against the earliest accrued but unpaid dividend due with respect to such shares that remains payable. 
  
 (d) Priority as to Dividends. 
  
 (i) Unless all dividends accumulated on all Series F Preferred Stock and all
classes and series of outstanding Parity Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends have been paid in full, (i) no dividend of cash or other property shall be authorized, declared, paid or set apart for payment on or with respect to any class or
series of Common Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock or any class or series of other stock of the Company ranking junior as to the payment of dividends to the Series F Preferred Stock and any series of outstanding Parity Preferred Stock (such Common
Stock or other junior stock, collectively, “Junior Stock”), and (ii) no cash or other property shall be set aside for or applied to the purchase, redemption or other acquisition for consideration of any Series F Preferred Stock, any
Parity Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends, or any Junior Stock. Without limiting Section 6(c) hereof, the foregoing sentence will not prohibit (i) dividends payable solely in Junior Stock, (ii) the conversion of Junior Stock or Parity
Preferred Stock into Junior Stock, and (iii) the purchase by the Company of such Series F Preferred Stock, Parity Preferred Stock or Junior Stock pursuant to the Charter to the extent necessary to preserve the Company’s status as a real estate
investment trust. 
  
 (ii) So long as dividends have not been paid
in full (and a sum sufficient for such full payment is not set apart for payment) upon the Series F Preferred Stock, all dividends authorized or declared upon the Series F Preferred Stock and all classes or series of outstanding Parity Preferred
Stock as to the payment of dividends with the Series F Preferred Stock shall be authorized and declared pro rata so that the amount of dividends authorized and declared per share of Series F Preferred Stock and such other classes or series of
outstanding Parity Preferred Stock shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that the sum of the liquidation preference plus accrued dividends per share on the Series F Preferred Stock bears to the sum of the liquidation preference plus
accrued dividends per share on such other classes or series of outstanding Parity Preferred Stock (which, in any event, shall not include any accumulation in respect of unpaid dividends for prior dividend periods if such class or series of Parity
Preferred Stock does not have cumulative dividend rights). 
  
 (e)
No Further Rights. Holders of Series F Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any dividends, whether payable in cash, other property or otherwise, in excess of the full cumulative dividends described herein. 
  
 (f) Capital Gain Dividend. If, for any taxable year, the Company
elects to designate any portion of a dividend as a “capital gain dividend” (as defined in Section 857 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), then, except as required by law, the portion of such capital gain dividend that shall
be allocable to holders of the Series F Preferred Stock shall be the same proportion that the total dividends (as determined for federal income tax purposes) paid or made available to the holders of the Series F Preferred Stock for the year bears to
the total amount of such dividends (as determined for federal income tax purposes) for the year paid or made available to the holders of all classes and series of stock of the Company. In addition, except as otherwise required by applicable law, the
Company shall make a similar allocation with respect to any undistributed long-term capital gains which are to be included in the long-term capital gains of a holder of Series F Preferred Stock, based on the allocation of the capital gains which
would have resulted if those undistributed long-term capital gains had been distributed as “capital gain dividends” by the Company to holders of all classes and series of stock of the Company. 
  
 Section 4. Liquidation Preference. 
  
 (a) Payment of Liquidating Distributions. Subject to the rights of
holders of Parity Preferred Stock with respect to rights upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company and subject to the rights of holders of any equity securities ranking senior to the Series F Preferred
Stock with respect to rights upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, the holders of Series F Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company legally available for
distribution or the proceeds thereof, after payment or provision for debts and other liabilities of the Company, but before any payment or distributions of the assets shall be made to holders of Common Stock or any other class or series of stock of
the Company that ranks junior to the Series F Preferred Stock as to rights upon liquidation, 
  

 3 

 dissolution or winding-up of the Company, an amount equal to the sum of (i) a liquidation preference of $25 per share of
Series F Preferred Stock plus (ii) an amount equal to any accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not declared, to the date of payment. In the event that, upon such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, there
are insufficient assets to permit full payment of liquidating distributions to the holders of Series F Preferred Stock and any Parity Preferred Stock as to rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, all payments of
liquidating distributions on the Series F Preferred Stock and such Parity Preferred Stock shall be made so that the payments on the Series F Preferred Stock and such Parity Preferred Stock shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that
the sum of the liquidation preference plus accrued dividends per share on the Series F Preferred Stock bears to the sum of the liquidation preference plus accrued dividends per share on the other series of Parity Preferred Stock (which, in any
event, shall not include any accumulation in respect of unpaid dividends for prior dividend periods if such Parity Preferred Stock does not have cumulative dividend rights). 
  
 (b) Notice. Written notice of any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the
Company, stating the payment date or dates when, and the place or places where, the amounts distributable in such circumstances shall be payable, shall be given by (i) fax and (ii) by first class mail, postage pre-paid, not less than thirty (30) and
not more than sixty (60) days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each record holder of the Series F Preferred Stock at the respective addresses of such holders as the same shall appear on the share transfer records of the Company.

  
 (c) No Further Rights. After payment of the full amount
of the liquidating distributions to which they are entitled, the holders of Series F Preferred Stock will have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Company. 
  
 (d) Consolidation, Merger or Certain Other Transactions. The voluntary sale, conveyance, lease, exchange or transfer
(for cash, shares of stock, securities or other consideration) of all or substantially all of the property or assets of the Company to, or the consolidation or merger or other business combination of the Company with or into any corporation, trust
or other entity (or of any corporation, trust or other entity with or into the Company) shall not be deemed to constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company. 
  
 (e) Permissible Distributions. In determining whether a distribution (other than upon voluntary or involuntary
liquidation) by dividend, redemption or other acquisition of shares of stock of the Company or otherwise is permitted under the MGCL, no effect shall be given to amounts that would be needed, if the Company were to be dissolved at the time of the
distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders of shares of stock of the Company whose preferential rights upon dissolution are superior to those receiving the distribution. 
  
 Section 5. Redemption. 
  
 (a) Optional Redemption. Subject to Section 7, the Series F Preferred
Stock may not be redeemed prior to December 8, 2009; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent the purchase by the Company of shares of Series F Preferred Stock in order to ensure that the Company continues to meet the
requirements for qualification as a REIT for federal and state income tax purposes. On or after such date, the Company shall have the right to redeem the Series F Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, upon not less
than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days written notice, at a redemption price, payable in cash, equal to $25 per share of Series F Preferred Stock plus accumulated and unpaid dividends, whether or not declared, up to and including the date of
redemption. Except with respect to a redemption to preserve REIT qualification, if fewer than all of the outstanding shares of Series F Preferred Stock are to be redeemed, the shares of Series F Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall be selected pro
rata (as nearly as practicable without creating fractional shares) by lot or by any other equitable method determined by the Company. 
  
 (b) Limitation on Redemption. Subject to Section 7 hereof, the Company may not redeem fewer than all of the outstanding shares of Series F
Preferred Stock unless all accumulated and unpaid dividends have been paid on all outstanding Series F Preferred Stock for all quarterly dividend periods terminating on or prior to the date of redemption; provided, however, that the foregoing
shall not prevent the purchase by the Company of shares of Series F Preferred Stock in order to ensure that the Company continues to meet the requirements for qualification as a REIT for federal and state income tax purposes. So long as no dividends
are in arrears, the Company shall be entitled at any time and from time to time to repurchase shares of Series F Preferred Stock in open-market transactions duly authorized by the Board of Directors and effected in compliance with applicable laws.

  

 4 

 (c) Procedures for Redemption. 
  
 (i) Notice of redemption will be given by publication in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of New York, such
publication to be made once a week for two successive weeks commencing not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the redemption date. A similar notice will be mailed by the Company, postage prepaid, not less than thirty (30)
nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the redemption date, addressed to the respective holders of record of the Series F Preferred Stock to be redeemed at their respective addresses as they appear on the transfer records of the Company. No failure
to give or defect in such notice shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Series F Preferred Stock except as to the holder to whom such notice was defective or not given. In addition to any information required by law
or by the applicable rules of any exchange upon which the Series F Preferred Stock may be listed or admitted to trading, each such notice shall state: (i) the redemption date, (ii) the redemption price, (iii) the number of shares of Series F
Preferred Stock to be redeemed, (iv) the place or places where the certificates evidencing shares of Series F Preferred Stock are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price, (v) that dividends on the Series F Preferred Stock to be
redeemed will cease to accumulate on such redemption date and (vi) that payment of the redemption price and any accumulated and unpaid dividends will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Series F Preferred Stock. If fewer than all of the
shares of Series F Preferred Stock held by any holder are to be redeemed, the notice mailed to such holder shall also specify the number of shares of Series F Preferred Stock held by such holder to be redeemed. 
  
 (ii) If the Company gives a notice of redemption in respect of Series F
Preferred Stock (which notice will be irrevocable) then, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the redemption date, the Company will deposit irrevocably in trust for the benefit of the Series F Preferred Stock being redeemed funds sufficient to pay
the applicable redemption price, plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends, if any, on such shares to the date fixed for redemption (which if following the Dividend Record Date but preceding a Dividend Payment Date shall include accumulated and
unpaid dividends through the applicable Dividend Payment Date), without interest, and will give irrevocable instructions and authority to pay such redemption price and any accumulated and unpaid dividends, whether or not declared, if any, on such
shares to the holders of the Series F Preferred Stock upon surrender of the Series F Preferred Stock by such holders at the place designated in the notice of redemption. If less than all Series F Preferred Stock evidenced by any certificate is being
redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued upon surrender of the certificate evidencing all Series F Preferred Stock, evidencing the unredeemed Series F Preferred Stock without cost to the holder thereof. On and after the date of redemption,
dividends will cease to accumulate on the Series F Preferred Stock or portions thereof called for redemption, unless the Company defaults in the payment thereof. If any date fixed for redemption of Series F Preferred Stock is not a Business Day,
then payment of the redemption price payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) except that, if such Business Day falls in the next
calendar year, such payment will be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date fixed for redemption. If payment of the redemption price or any accumulated or unpaid dividends
in respect of the Series F Preferred Stock is improperly withheld or refused and not paid by the Company, dividends on such Series F Preferred Stock will continue to accumulate from the original redemption date to the date of payment, in which case
the actual payment date will be considered the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the applicable redemption price and any accumulated and unpaid dividends. 
  
 (iii) If redemption is to be by lot and, as a result, any holder of shares of Series F Preferred Stock would have actual
ownership or Constructive Ownership (as defined in Section 7(a)) in excess of the Ownership Limit (as defined in Section 7(a)), or such other limit as permitted by the Board of Directors or the Committee pursuant to Section 7(i), because such
holder’s shares of Series F Preferred Stock were not redeemed, or were only redeemed in part, then, except as otherwise provided in the Charter, the Company shall redeem the requisite number of shares of Series F Preferred Stock of such holder
such that no holder will hold an amount of Series F Preferred Stock in excess of the Ownership Limit or such other limit, as applicable, subsequent to such redemption. 
  
 (iv) The holders of shares of Series F Preferred Stock at the close of business on a Dividend Record Date will be entitled
to receive dividends payable with respect to the shares of Series F Preferred Stock held 
  

 5 

 on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the redemption thereof between such Dividend Record Date and
the corresponding Dividend Payment Date or the Company’s default in the payment of such dividends. Except as provided above, the Company shall make no payment or allowance for any accumulated and unpaid dividends on the shares of Series F
Preferred Stock to be redeemed. 
  
 (d) Status of Redeemed
Stock. Any shares of Series F Preferred Stock that shall at any time have been redeemed shall, after such redemption, have the status of authorized but unissued Preferred Stock, without designation as to class or series until such shares are
once more designated as part of a particular class or series by the Board of Directors. 
  
 Section 6. Voting Rights. 
  
 (a) General. Holders of the Series F Preferred Stock will not have any voting rights, except as set forth below. 
  
 (b) Right to Elect Directors. 
  
 (i) If at any time full dividends shall not have been timely made on any Series F Preferred Stock with respect to any six (6) prior quarterly dividend
periods, whether or not consecutive (a “Preferred Dividend Default”), the holders of such Series F Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class with the holders of each class or series of Parity Preferred Stock, which is on
parity with the Series F Preferred Stock as to both dividend rights and rights upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable (collectively
with the Series F Preferred Stock, the “Parity Securities”), will have the right to elect two additional directors to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Preferred Stock Directors”). The Preferred
Stock Directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast in the election for a one-year term and each Preferred Stock Director will serve until his or her successor is duly elected and qualifies or until such Preferred Stock Director’s
right to hold the office terminates, whichever occurs earlier, subject to such Preferred Stock Director’s earlier death, disqualification, resignation or removal. The election will take place at (i) either (A) a special meeting called in
accordance with Section 6(b)(ii) below if the request is received more than ninety (90) days before the date fixed for the Company’s next annual or special meeting of stockholders or (B) the next annual or special meeting of stockholders if the
request is received within ninety (90) days of the date fixed for the Company’s next annual or special meeting of stockholders and (ii) at each subsequent annual meeting of stockholders or special meeting held in place thereof, until all such
dividends in arrears and dividends for the current quarterly period on the Series F Preferred Stock and each such class or series of outstanding Parity Preferred Stock have been paid in full (or set apart for payment in full as described in Section
6(b)(iii) below). A dividend in respect of Series F Preferred Stock shall be considered timely made if made within two (2) Business Days after the applicable Dividend Payment Date if at the time of such late payment date there shall not be any prior
quarterly dividend periods in respect of which full dividends were not timely made at the applicable Dividend Payment Date. 
  
 (ii) At any time when such voting rights shall have vested, a proper officer of the Company shall call or cause to be called, upon written request of
holders of record of at least 10% of the outstanding shares of Series F Preferred Stock, a special meeting of the holders of Series F Preferred Stock and each class or series of other Parity Securities by mailing or causing to be mailed to such
holders a notice of such special meeting to be held not less than ten and not more than forty-five (45) days after the date such notice is given. The record date for determining holders of the Parity Securities entitled to notice of and to vote at
such special meeting will be the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the day on which such notice is mailed. At any such annual or special meeting, all of the holders of the Series F Preferred Stock and other Parity Securities, by
plurality vote, voting together as a single class without regard to class or series will be entitled to elect two directors on the basis of one vote per $50 of liquidation preference to which such Parity Securities are entitled by their terms
(excluding amounts in respect of accumulated and unpaid dividends) and not cumulatively. As a result, each share of Series F Preferred Stock will be entitled to one-half of a vote. The holder or holders of one-third of the Parity Securities then
outstanding, present in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum for the election of the Preferred Stock Directors except as otherwise provided by law. Notice of all meetings at which holders of the Series F Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
vote will be given to such holders at their addresses as they appear in the transfer records. At any such meeting or adjournment thereof in the absence of a quorum, subject to the provisions of any applicable law, a 
  

 6 

 majority of the holders of the Parity Securities present in person or by proxy shall have the power to adjourn the
meeting for the election of the Preferred Stock Directors, without notice other than an announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is present. If a Preferred Dividend Default shall terminate after the notice of a special meeting has been given but
before such special meeting has been held, the Company shall, as soon as practicable after such termination, mail or cause to be mailed notice of such termination to holders of the Series F Preferred Stock that would have been entitled to vote at
such special meeting. 
  
 (iii) If and when all accumulated
dividends and the dividend for the current dividend period on the Series F Preferred Stock shall have been paid in full or a sum sufficient for such payment is irrevocably deposited in trust for payment, the holders of the Series F Preferred Stock
shall be divested of the voting rights set forth in Section 6(b) herein (subject to revesting in the event of each and every Preferred Dividend Default) and, if all dividends in arrears and the dividends for the current dividend period have been
paid in full or set aside for payment in full on all other classes or series of Parity Securities, the term of office of each Preferred Stock Director so elected shall terminate. Any Preferred Stock Director may be removed at any time with or
without cause by the vote of, and shall not be removed otherwise than by the vote of, the holders of record of a majority of the outstanding Series F Preferred Stock and other Parity Securities entitled to vote thereon when they have the voting
rights set forth in Section 6(b) (voting separately as a single class with all other classes or series of Parity Securities). So long as a Preferred Dividend Default shall continue, any vacancy in the office of a Preferred Stock Director may be
filled by written consent of the Preferred Stock Director remaining in office, or if none remains in office, by a vote of the holders of record of a majority of the outstanding Series F Preferred Stock and other Parity Securities entitled to vote
thereon when they have the voting rights set forth in Section 6(b) (voting separately as a single class with all other classes or series of Parity Securities). The Preferred Stock Directors shall each be entitled to one vote per director on any
matter. 
  
 (c) Certain Voting Rights. So long as any
Series F Preferred Stock remains outstanding, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Series F Preferred Stock outstanding at the time (i) designate or create, or increase the authorized or
issued amount of, any class or series of shares ranking senior to the Series F Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights or rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up or (ii) reclassify any authorized shares of the Company into any
such shares, or create, authorize or issue any obligations or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any such shares referenced in clause (i) of this subsection (c), (iii) designate or create, or increase the authorized or
issued amount of, any Parity Preferred Stock or reclassify any authorized shares of the Company into any such shares, or create, authorize or issue any obligations or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any such shares, but
only to the extent such Parity Preferred Stock is issued to an affiliate of the Company, or (iv) either (A) consolidate, merge into or with, or convey, transfer or lease its assets substantially as an entirety, to any corporation or other entity, or
(B) amend, alter or repeal the provisions of the Company’s Charter (including these Articles Supplementary) or Bylaws, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, in either (A) or (B) above in such a way that would materially and adversely
affect the powers, special rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of the Series F Preferred Stock or the holders thereof; provided, however, that with respect to the occurrence of any event set forth in (iv) above, so long as (a) the
Company is the surviving entity and the Series F Preferred Stock remains outstanding with the terms thereof unchanged or (b) the resulting, surviving or transferee entity is a corporation, business trust or other like entity organized under the laws
of any state and substitutes for the Series F Preferred Stock other preferred stock having substantially the same terms and same rights as the Series F Preferred Stock, including with respect to dividends, voting rights and rights upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding-up, then the occurrence of any such event shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect the rights, privileges or voting powers of the Series F Preferred Stock or the holders thereof; and provided, further,
that any increase in the amount of authorized Preferred Stock or the creation or issuance of any other class or series of Preferred Stock, or any increase in an amount of authorized shares of each class or series, in each case ranking either (a)
junior to the Series F Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up or (b) on a parity with the Series F Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding-up of the Company to the extent such Preferred Stock is not issued to an affiliate of the Company, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers; and provided,
further, that notwithstanding clauses (iii) or (iv) above, the Company may increase the authorized or issued amount of the Series F Preferred Stock and/or any Parity Preferred Stock, whether by amendment or supplementation of the Charter, these
Articles Supplementary or otherwise, without any vote of the holders of the Series F Preferred Stock if all such additional shares (a) remain unissued, and/or (b) are issued to an underwriter in a public offering 
  

 7 

 registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In any matter in which the holders of the Series F Preferred
Stock shall be entitled to vote (as provided herein), including any action by written consent, each share of Series F Preferred Stock shall have one vote per share, except that when shares of any other series of preferred stock shall have the right
to vote with the Series F Preferred Stock as a single class on any matter, then the Series F Preferred Stock and such other series shall have with respect to such matters one vote per $50.00 of stated liquidation preference, resulting in each share
of Series F Preferred Stock being entitled to one-half of a vote. 
  
 (d) No Voting Rights After Redemption. The foregoing voting provisions will not apply if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required would occur, all outstanding shares of Series
F Preferred Stock shall have been redeemed or called for redemption upon proper notice and sufficient funds shall have been deposited in trust to effect such redemption. 
  
 Section 7. Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer to Preserve Tax Benefit. 
  
 (a) Definitions. For the purposes of Section 5 and this Section 7 of

qualify as a REIT (including but not limited to Beneficial or Constructive Ownership that would result in the Company owning (actually or Constructively) an interest in a tenant that is described in Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code if the income
derived by the Company (either directly or indirectly through one or more subsidiaries) from such tenant would cause the Company to fail to satisfy any of the gross income requirements of Section 856(c) of the Code or comparable provisions of state
law). 
  
 (ii) If, prior to the Restriction Termination Date, any
Transfer (whether or not such Transfer is the result of a transaction entered into through the facilities of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”)) or other event occurs that, if effective, would result in any Person Beneficially or
Constructively Owning Series F Preferred Stock in violation of Section 7(b)(i) of these Articles Supplementary, (i) then that number of shares of Series F Preferred Stock that otherwise would cause such Person to violate Section 7(b)(i) of these

effective as provided therein to prevent any Person from Beneficially or Constructively Owning Series F Preferred Stock in violation of Section 7(b)(i) of these Articles Supplementary, then the Transfer of that number of shares of Series F Preferred
Stock that otherwise would cause any Person to violate Section 7(b)(i) shall be void ab initio, and the Purported Beneficial Transferee shall have no rights in such shares. 
  
 (iii) Subject to Section 7(l) and notwithstanding any other provisions contained herein, prior to the Restriction
Termination Date, any Transfer of Series F Preferred Stock (whether or not such Transfer is the result of a transaction entered into through the facilities of the NYSE) that, if effective, would result in the capital stock of the Company being
beneficially owned by less than 100 Persons (determined without reference to any rules of attribution) shall be void ab initio, and the intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such Series F Preferred Stock. 
  
 (c) Transfers of Series F Preferred Stock in Trust. 
  
 (i) Upon any purported Transfer or other event described in Section 7(b)(ii)
of these Articles Supplementary, such Series F Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have been transferred to the Trustee in his capacity as trustee of a Trust for the exclusive benefit of one or more Charitable Beneficiaries. Such transfer to the
Trustee shall be deemed to be effective as of the close of business on the Business Day prior to the purported Transfer or other event that results in a transfer to the Trust pursuant to Section 7(b)(ii). The Trustee shall be appointed by the
Company and shall be a Person unaffiliated with the Company, any Purported Beneficial Transferee or any Purported Record Transferee. Each Charitable Beneficiary shall be designated by the Company as provided in Section 7(c)(vi) of these Articles
Supplementary. 
  
 (ii) Series F Preferred Stock held by the
Trustee shall be issued and outstanding Series F Preferred Stock of the Company. The Purported Beneficial Transferee or Purported Record Transferee shall have no rights in the shares of the Series F Preferred Stock held by the Trustee. The Purported
Beneficial Transferee or Purported Record Transferee shall not benefit economically from ownership of any shares held in trust by the Trustee, shall have no rights to dividends and shall not possess any rights to vote or other rights attributable to
the shares of Series F Preferred Stock held in the Trust. 
  
 (iii) The Trustee shall have all voting rights and rights to dividends with respect to Series F Preferred Stock held in the Trust, which rights shall be exercised for the exclusive benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary. Any dividend or
distribution paid to or on behalf of the Purported Record Transferee or Purported Beneficial Transferee prior to the discovery by the Company that shares of Series F Preferred Stock have been transferred to the Trustee shall be paid to the Trustee
upon demand, and any dividend or distribution declared but unpaid shall be paid when due to the Trustee with respect to such Series F Preferred Stock. Any dividends or distributions so paid over to the Trustee shall be held in trust for the
Charitable Beneficiary. The Purported Record 
  

 10 

 Transferee and Purported Beneficial Transferee shall have no voting rights with respect to the Series F Preferred Stock
held in the Trust and, subject to Maryland law, effective as of the date the Series F Preferred Stock has been transferred to the Trustee, the Trustee shall have the authority (at the Trustee’s sole discretion) (i) to rescind as void any vote
cast by a Purported Record Transferee with respect to such Series F Preferred Stock prior to the discovery by the Company that the Series F Preferred Stock has been transferred to the Trustee and (ii) to recast such vote in accordance with the
desires of the Trustee acting for the benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary; provided, however, that if the Company has already taken irreversible corporate action, then the Trustee shall not have the authority to rescind and recast such
vote. Notwithstanding any other provision of these Articles Supplementary to the contrary, until the Company has received notification that the Series F Preferred Stock has been transferred into a Trust, the Company shall be entitled to rely on its
share transfer and other stockholder records for purposes of preparing lists of stockholders entitled to vote at meetings, determining the validity and authority of proxies and otherwise conducting votes of stockholders. 
  
 (iv) Within twenty (20) days of receiving notice from the Company that shares
of Series F Preferred Stock have been transferred to the Trust, the Trustee of the Trust shall sell the shares of Series F Preferred Stock held in the Trust to a Person, designated by the Trustee, whose ownership of the shares of Series F Preferred
Stock will not violate the ownership limitations set forth in Section 7(b)(i). Upon such sale, the interest of the Charitable Beneficiary in the shares of Series F Preferred Stock sold shall terminate and the Trustee shall distribute the net
proceeds of the sale to the Purported Record Transferee and to the Charitable Beneficiary as provided in this Section 7(c)(iv). The Purported Record Transferee shall receive the lesser of (i) the price paid by the Purported Record Transferee for the
shares of Series F Preferred Stock in the transaction that resulted in such transfer to the Trust (or, if the event which resulted in the transfer to the Trust did not involve a purchase of such shares of Series F Preferred Stock at Market Price,
the Market Price of such shares of Series F Preferred Stock on the day of the event which resulted in the transfer of such shares of Series F Preferred Stock to the Trust) and (ii) the price per share received by the Trustee (net of any commissions
and other expenses of sale) from the sale or other disposition of the shares of Series F Preferred Stock held in the Trust. Any net sales proceeds in excess of the amount payable to the Purported Record Transferee shall be immediately paid to the
Charitable Beneficiary together with any dividends or other distributions thereon. If, prior to the discovery by the Company that shares of such Series F Preferred Stock have been transferred to the Trustee, such shares of Series F Preferred Stock
are sold by a Purported Record Transferee then (i) such shares of Series F Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have been sold on behalf of the Trust and (ii) to the extent that the Purported Record Transferee received an amount for such shares of
Series F Preferred Stock that exceeds the amount that such Purported Record Transferee was entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 7(c)(iv), such excess shall be paid to the Trustee upon demand. 
  
 (v) Series F Preferred Stock transferred to the Trustee shall be deemed to
have been offered for sale to the Company, or its designee, at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the price paid by the Purported Record Transferee for the shares of Series F Preferred Stock in the transaction that resulted in such
transfer to the Trust (or, if the event which resulted in the transfer to the Trust did not involve a purchase of such shares of Series F Preferred Stock at Market Price, the Market Price of such shares of Series F Preferred Stock on the day of the
event which resulted in the transfer of such shares of Series F Preferred Stock to the Trust) and (ii) the Market Price on the date the Company, or its designee, accepts such offer. The Company shall have the right to accept such offer until the
Trustee has sold the shares of Series F Preferred Stock held in the Trust pursuant to Section 7(c)(iv). Upon such a sale to the Company, the interest of the Charitable Beneficiary in the shares of Series F Preferred Stock sold shall terminate and
the Trustee shall distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the Purported Record Transferee and any dividends or other distributions held by the Trustee with respect to such Series F Preferred Stock shall thereupon be paid to the Charitable
Beneficiary. 
  
 (vi) By written notice to the Trustee, the
Company shall designate one or more nonprofit organizations to be the Charitable Beneficiary of the interest in the Trust such that the Series F Preferred Stock held in the Trust would not violate the restrictions set forth in Section 7(b)(i) in the
hands of such Charitable Beneficiary. 
  
 (d) Remedies For
Breach. If the Board of Directors or a committee thereof or other designees if permitted by the MGCL shall at any time determine in good faith that a Transfer or other event has taken place in violation of Section 7(b) of these Articles
Supplementary or that a Person intends to acquire, has attempted to acquire or may acquire beneficial ownership (determined without reference to any rules of attribution), Beneficial Ownership or Constructive Ownership of any shares of Series F
Preferred Stock of the Company in violation of Section 7(b) of 
  

 11 

 these Articles Supplementary, the Board of Directors or the Committee or other designees if permitted by the MGCL shall
take such action as it deems advisable to refuse to give effect or to prevent such Transfer, including, but not limited to, causing the Company to redeem shares of Series F Preferred Stock, refusing to give effect to such Transfer on the books of
the Company or instituting proceedings to enjoin such Transfer; provided, however, that any Transfers (or, in the case of events other than a Transfer, ownership or Constructive Ownership or Beneficial Ownership) in violation of Section
7(b)(i) of these Articles Supplementary, shall automatically result in the transfer to a Trust as described in Section 7(b)(ii) and any Transfer in violation of Section 7(b)(iii) shall automatically be void ab initio irrespective of any
action (or non-action) by the Board of Directors. 
  
 (e)
Notice of Restricted Transfer. Any Person who acquires or attempts to acquire shares of Series F Preferred Stock in violation of Section 7(b) of these Articles Supplementary, or any Person who is a Purported Beneficial Transferee such that an
automatic transfer to a Trust results under Section 7(b)(ii) of these Articles Supplementary, shall immediately give written notice to the Company of such event and shall provide to the Company such other information as the Company may request in
order to determine the effect, if any of such Transfer or attempted Transfer on the Company’s status as a REIT. 
  
 (f) Owners Required To Provide Information. Prior to the Restriction Termination Date each Person who is a beneficial owner or Beneficial Owner or
Constructive Owner of Series F Preferred Stock and each Person (including the shareholder of record) who is holding Series F Preferred Stock for a beneficial owner or Beneficial Owner or Constructive Owner shall provide to the Company such
information that the Company may request, in good faith, in order to determine the Company’s status as a REIT. 
  
 (g) Remedies Not Limited. Nothing contained in these Articles Supplementary (but subject to Section 7(l) of these Articles Supplementary) shall
limit the authority of the Board of Directors to take such other action as it deems necessary or advisable to protect the Company and the interests of its shareholders by preservation of the Company’s status as a REIT. 
  
 (h) Ambiguity. In the case of an ambiguity in the application of any
of the provisions of this Section 7 of these Articles Supplementary, including any definition contained in Section 7(a), the Board of Directors shall have the power to determine the application of the provisions of this Section 7 with respect to any
situation based on the facts known to it (subject, however, to the provisions of Section 7(l) of these Articles Supplementary). In the event Section 7 requires an action by the Board of Directors and these Articles Supplementary fail to provide
specific guidance with respect to such action, the Board of Directors shall have the power to determine the action to be taken so long as such action is not contrary to the provisions of Section 7. Absent a decision to the contrary by the Board of
Directors (which the Board of Directors may make in its sole and absolute discretion), if a Person would have (but for the remedies set forth in Section 7(b)) acquired Beneficial or Constructive Ownership of Series F Preferred Stock in violation of
Section 7(b)(i), such remedies (as applicable) shall apply first to the shares of Series F Preferred Stock which, but for such remedies, would have been actually owned by such Person, and second to shares of Series F Preferred Stock, which, but for
such remedies, would have been Beneficially Owned or Constructively Owned (but not actually owned) by such Person, pro rata among the Persons who actually own such shares of Series F Preferred Stock based upon the relative number of the shares of
Series F Preferred Stock held by each such Person. 
  
 (i)
Exceptions. 
  
 (i) Subject to Section 7(b)(i)(C), the
Board of Directors or the Committee, each in its sole discretion, may exempt (prospectively or retroactively) a Person from the limitation on a Person Beneficially Owning shares of Series F Preferred Stock in violation of Section 7(b)(i)(A) if the
Board of Directors or the Committee, as applicable, determines that such exemption will not cause the Company to fail to qualify as a REIT under the Code. 
  
 (ii) Subject to Section 7(b)(i)(C), the Board of Directors or the Committee, as applicable, in its sole discretion, may exempt (prospectively or
retroactively) a Person from the limitation on a Person Constructively Owning Series F Preferred Stock in violation of Section 7(b)(i)(B), if the Board of Directors or the Committee, as applicable, determines that such ownership would not cause the
Company to fail to qualify as a REIT under the Code. 
  

 12 

 (iii) Subject to Section 7(b)(i)(C) and the remainder of this Section 7(i)(iii), the Board of Directors
or the Committee, as applicable, may from time to time increase or decrease the Ownership Limit; provided, however, that the decreased Ownership Limit will not be effective for any Person whose percentage ownership in Series F
Preferred Stock is in excess of such decreased Ownership Limit until such time as such Person’s percentage of Series F Preferred Stock equals or falls below the decreased Ownership Limit, but any further acquisition of Series F Preferred Stock
in excess of such percentage ownership of Series F Preferred Stock will be in violation of the Ownership Limit, and, provided further, that the new Ownership Limit would not allow five or fewer Persons to Beneficially Own more than 49% in
value of the outstanding capital stock of the Company. 
  
 (iv) In
granting a person an exemption under Section 7(i)(i) or (ii) above, the Board of Directors or the Committee, as applicable, may require such Person to make certain representations or undertakings or to agree that any violation or attempted violation
of such representations or undertakings (or other action which is contrary to the restrictions contained in Section 7(b)(i) or (ii) of these Articles Supplementary) will result in such Series F Preferred Stock being transferred to a Trust in
accordance with Section 7(b)(ii) of these Articles Supplementary. In granting any exception pursuant to Section 7(i)(i) or (ii) of these Articles Supplementary, the Board of Directors or the Committee, as applicable, may require a ruling from the
IRS, or an opinion of counsel, in either case in form and substance satisfactory to the Board of Directors or the Committee, as applicable, in its sole discretion, as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to determine or ensure the
Company’s status as a REIT. 
  
 (j) Legends. Each
certificate for Series F Preferred Stock shall bear substantially the following legends in addition to any legends required to comply with federal and state securities laws:

BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS AUTHORIZED TO DETERMINE THE PREFERENCES, LIMITATIONS AND RELATIVE RIGHTS OF ANY CLASS OF THE PREFERRED STOCK BEFORE THE ISSUANCE OF SHARES OF SUCH CLASS OF PREFERRED STOCK. THE COMPANY WILL FURNISH, WITHOUT CHARGE, TO ANY

PREFERRED STOCK THAT, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT ANY OTHER CAPITAL STOCK OF THE COMPANY BENEFICIALLY OR CONSTRUCTIVELY OWNED BY SUCH PERSON, WOULD RESULT IN THE COMPANY BEING “CLOSELY HELD” UNDER SECTION 856(h) OF THE CODE OR OTHERWISE CAUSE THE
COMPANY TO FAIL TO QUALIFY AS A REIT; AND (iv) NO PERSON MAY TRANSFER SERIES F PREFERRED STOCK IF SUCH TRANSFER WOULD RESULT IN THE CAPITAL STOCK OF THE COMPANY BEING OWNED BY FEWER THAN 100 PERSONS. ANY PERSON WHO BENEFICIALLY OR CONSTRUCTIVELY
OWNS OR ATTEMPTS TO BENEFICIALLY OR CONSTRUCTIVELY OWN SERIES F PREFERRED STOCK WHICH CAUSES OR WILL CAUSE A PERSON TO BENEFICIALLY OR CONSTRUCTIVELY OWN SERIES F PREFERRED STOCK IN EXCESS OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MUST IMMEDIATELY NOTIFY THE
COMPANY. IF ANY OF THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OR OWNERSHIP ARE VIOLATED, THE SERIES F PREFERRED STOCK REPRESENTED HEREBY IN EXCESS OF SUCH RESTRICTIONS WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY TRANSFERRED TO THE TRUSTEE OF A TRUST FOR THE BENEFIT OF ONE OR MORE
CHARITABLE BENEFICIARIES. IN ADDITION, THE COMPANY MAY REDEEM SHARES UPON THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SPECIFIED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION IF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS DETERMINES THAT OWNERSHIP OR A 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 TERMS IN THIS LEGEND WHICH ARE DEFINED IN THE ARTICLES

 (k) Severability. If any provision of this Section 7 or any application of any such provision is determined to be
invalid by any Federal or state court having jurisdiction over the issues, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected and other applications of such provision shall be affected only to the extent necessary to comply with the
determination of such court. 
  
 (l) NYSE. Nothing in this
Section 7 shall preclude the settlement of any transaction entered into through the facilities of the NYSE. The shares of Series F Preferred Stock that are the subject of such transaction shall continue to be subject to the provisions of this
