NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the promises and the covenants of the parties contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, for themselves, and their permitted successors and assigns, hereby agree as follows:
		
	1.
	The option herein granted shall become exercisable in whole or in part as follows:

		
	(a)
	Exercisable in its entirety on the second anniversary of the grant date; 

		
	(b)
	Exercisable in its entirety (i) upon the death of the Participant, or (ii) in the event of total and permanent disability of the Participant; and

		
	(c)
	Exercisable in its entirety immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control.

		
	(d)
	No portion of the option shall become exercisable following the cessation of the Participant’s membership on the Board.

		
	2.
	The unexercised portion of the option herein granted shall automatically and without notice terminate and become null and void at the time of the earliest of the following to occur:

    
		
	(a)
	the expiration of ten years from the date on which the option was granted;

		
	(b)
	the expiration of 60 days from the date the Participant ceases to be a member of the Board; provided, however, that 

		
	(i)
	if the Participant ceases to be a member of the Board because of total and permanent disability, the provisions of sub-paragraph (c) shall apply,

		
	(ii)
	if the Participant shall die while a member of the Board or during the 60-day period following the date the Participant ceases to be a member of the Board, the provisions of sub-paragraph (d) below shall apply, and

		
	(iii)
	if the Participant shall retire from the Board, and satisfy the Accelerated Vesting Criteria at the time of such retirement, the provisions of sub-paragraph (e) below shall apply;

		
	(c)
	if Section 2(b)(i) applies, (i) if the Participant satisfied the Accelerated Vesting Criteria at the time of Participant’s total and permanent disability, the expiration of 36 months after the date the Participant ceases to be a member of the Board because of total and permanent disability, or (ii) if the Participant did not satisfy the Accelerated Vesting Criteria at the time of Participant’s total and permanent disability, the expiration of 12 months after the date the Participant ceases to be a member of the Board because of total and permanent disability; provided, however, that if the Participant shall die during the 36-month period specified in clause (i) of this Section 2(c) or the 12-month period specified in clause (ii) of this Section 2(c), as applicable, then the unexercised portion shall become null and void upon the expiration of 12 months after death of the Participant;

		
	(d)
	if Section 2(b)(ii) applies, (i) if the Participant satisfied the Accelerated Vesting Criteria at the time of death, the expiration of 36 months after death of the Participant, or (ii) if the Participant did not satisfy the Accelerated Vesting Criteria at the time of death, the expiration of 12 months after death of the Participant; and

    
		
	(e)
	if Section 2(b)(iii) applies, the expiration of 36 months after the retirement of the Participant from the Board; provided, however, that if such Participant shall die during the 36 month period following the date of such Participant’s retirement, then the unexercised portion shall become null and void on the later of (i) the expiration of 36 months after the retirement of the Participant, or (ii) 12 months after death of the Participant.

    
		
	3.
	Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any unexercised portion of the option herein granted would terminate and become null and void in accordance with Section 2 and the Fair Market Value of the unexercised portion of the option herein granted exceeds the full price for each of the shares purchased pursuant to such option, the then-vested portion of the option herein granted shall be deemed to be automatically exercised by the Participant on such last trading day by means of  a net exercise without any action by the Participant.  Upon such automatic exercise, the Company shall deliver to the Participant the number of shares of Common Stock for which the option was deemed exercised less the number of shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value, as of such date, sufficient to (1) pay the full price for each of the shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to the option herein granted and (2) satisfy all applicable required tax withholding obligations.  Any fractional share shall be settled in cash. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding any provision (or interpretation) of Section 2 to the contrary, the unexercised portion of the option herein granted shall automatically and without notice terminate and become null and void upon the expiration of ten years from the date of this Agreement.

		
	4.
	The full price for each of the shares purchased pursuant to the option herein granted shall be $XX.XX.

		
	5.
	Full payment for shares purchased by the Participant shall be made at the time of the exercise of the option in whole or in part. No shares shall be issued until full payment therefore has been made, and the Participant shall have none of the rights of a shareholder with respect to any shares subject to this option until such shares shall have been issued.

		
	6.
	No option granted hereunder may be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by a Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate.

		
	7.
	In the event of one or more stock splits, stock dividends, stock changes, reclassifications, recapitalizations or combinations of shares prior to complete exercise of the option herein granted that change the character or number of the shares subject to the option, this option to the extent that it shall not have been exercised, shall entitle the Participant or the Participant’s executors or administrators to receive in substitution such number and kind of shares as he, she or they would have been entitled to receive if the Participant or the Participant’s executors or administrators had actually owned the shares subject to this option at the time of the occurrence of such change; provided, however that if the change is of such nature that the Participant or the Participant’s executors or administrators, upon exercise of the option, would receive property other than shares of stock, then the Board shall adjust the option so that he, she or they shall acquire only shares of stock upon exercise, making such adjustment in the number and kind of shares to be received as the Board shall, in its sole judgment, deem equitable; provided, further, that the foregoing shall not limit the Company’s ability to otherwise adjust the option in a manner consistent with Section 12 of the Plan.

		
	8.
	As used herein, the term “Accelerated Vesting Criteria” means being a member of the Board for at least ten years.

		
	9.
	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the option granted hereunder may be terminated and become null and void without consideration if the Participant, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion (i) engages in an activity that is in conflict with or adverse to the interests of the Company or any Affiliate, including but not limited to fraud or conduct contributing to any financial restatements or irregularities, or (ii) without the consent of the Company, while providing services to the Company or any Affiliate or after termination of such service, violates a non-competition, non-solicitation or non-disclosure covenant or agreement between the Participant and the Company or any Affiliate. If the Participant engages in any activity referred to in the preceding sentence, the Participant shall, at the sole discretion of the Committee, forfeit any gain realized in respect of the option granted hereunder (which gain shall be deemed to be an amount equal to the difference between the price for shares set forth in Section 4 above and the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan), on the applicable exercise date, of the shares of Common Stock of the Company delivered to the Participant), and repay such gain to the Company.

	10.
	The provisions of the Plan are hereby incorporated herein by reference. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, and any capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the definitions set forth in the Plan.

		
	11.
	Any right of the Company contained in this Agreement may be waived in writing by the Committee. No waiver of any right hereunder by any party shall operate as a waiver of any other right, or as a waiver of the same right with respect to any subsequent occasion for its exercise, or as a waiver of any right to damages. No waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement shall be held to constitute a waiver of any other breach or a waiver of the continuation of the same breach.

		
	12.
	The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, and each other provision of this Agreement shall be severable and enforceable to the extent permitted by law.

		
	13.
	The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, its successors and assigns, the Participant and the beneficiaries, executors, administrators, heirs and successors of the Participant.

		
	14.
	This Agreement and the Plan contain the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained herein and supersede all prior communications, representations and negotiations in respect thereto. No change, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same be in writing and signed by the parties hereto, except for any changes permitted without consent of the Participant under the Plan.

		
	15.
	This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflicts of law thereof, or principles of conflicts of laws of any other jurisdiction which could cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

(b)Making of Term Loans.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(i)        Generally.   Subject to  the terms and conditions of this Supplement and of the Supplemented Credit Agreement, each Term Loan Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make Term Loans to the Borrower during  the Term Loan Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount up to, but not exceeding, such Lender’s  Term Loan Commitment.   There shall be no more  than 4 separate borrowings of Term Loans and each borrowing of Term Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum  amount of $10,000,000 and  integral multiples of $10,000,000  in excess  thereof; provided, that a borrowing of Term Loans may be in the aggregate amount of the remaining Term Loan Commitments.  Upon a Term Loan Lender’s funding of a Term Loan, such Lender’s  Term Loan Commitment shall be permanently reduced by the principal amount of such Term Loan. All Term Loan Commitments shall terminate on  the Term Loan Availability Termination Date if not previously terminated pursuant to this Supplement or the Supplemented Credit Agreement.  Once  repaid, the principal amount of a  Term Loan (or portion thereof) may not be reborrowed.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(ii)Requests for Term Loans.   Not later than 11:00 a.m. Central time at least 1
		

		
			Business Day prior to a borrowing of Term Loans that are to be Base Rate Loans and not later than
		

		
			11:00 a.m.  Central  time at  least 3 Business Days  prior to a borrowing  of  Term Loans that are to  be
		

		
			LIBOR Loans, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Term Loan
		

		
			Borrowing. Each Notice  of Term Loan Borrowing shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans to be borrowed, the  Type of the Term  Loans, the date such  Term Loans are to be borrowed (which must be a Business Day) and if such Term Loans are to be LIBOR Loans, the  initial Interest Period  for such Term Loans. Prior to delivering a Notice  of Term Loan  Borrowing,  the Borrower may (without specifying whether a Term Loan will be a Base Rate Loan  or a LIBOR Loan) request  that  the Administrative Agent provide the Borrower with  the most  recent LIBOR available to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall provide such quoted rate to  the Borrower on the date of such request or as soon as possible  thereafter.   Each Notice of Term Loan Borrowing shall be irrevocable once given and binding on the Borrower.   Upon receipt of a  Notice of Term Loan Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Term Loan Lender.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(iii)      Funding of Term Loans.   Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Term Loan Borrowing, each Term Loan Lender shall deposit an amount equal to the Term Loan to be made by such Term Loan Lender to  the Borrower  with  the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office,  in immediately available funds, not later than 11:00 a.m.  Central time on the date of such proposed  Term Loans.  Subject to fulfillment of all applicable conditions  set forth in this Supplement and in  the Supplemented Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall make available  to  the  Borrower in the account specified by the Borrower in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement, not later than 2:00 p.m. Central time on the date of such proposed Term Loans, the proceeds of such amounts  received by the Administrative Agent.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(iv)       Assumptions Regarding Funding by Term Loan Lenders.   With respect to Term Loans to be made after the Supplement Effective Date, unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Term Loan Lender that such Term Loan Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent a Term Loan to be made by such  Term Loan Lender  in connection with  any borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Term Loan Lender will make the proceeds of such Term Loan available to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section
		

		
			2(b)(iii) of this Supplement, and the Administrative Agent may  (but shall not be obligated to),  in  reliance upon such assumption, make  available to  the Borrower the amount of such Term  Loan to
		

		
			be provided by such Term Loan Lender.   In such event, if such Term Loan Lender does not make
		

		
			available to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of such Term Loan, then such Term Loan

			LEGAL02/35729719v6

		

		

 

Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent on demand the amount of such Term Loan with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such Term Loan is made available to  the Borrower but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in  the case of a payment to be made by such Term Loan Lender,  the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry  rules on interbank compensation and  (ii) in  the  case of a payment  to be made by the Borrower, the  interest rate applicable to such Term Loans. If the Borrower and such Term Loan Lender shall pay the amount of such  interest  to the Administrative Agent for the same or overlapping period, the  Administrative Agent shall promptly remit  to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Term Loan Lender pays to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Term Loan, the amount so paid shall constitute such Term Loan Lender’s Term Loan included in  the borrowing.   Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice  to any claim  the Borrower may have against a Term Loan Lender that shall have failed to make available the proceeds of a Term Loan to be made by such  Term Loan Lender.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)        Interest on Term Loans.   The Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Loan Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan made by such Term Loan Lender for the period  from and including the date of the making of such  Term Loan to but excluding the date  such Term Loan shall be paid in full,  at the following per annum rates:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(i)         during such periods as such Term Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate (as in effect from time to time), plus the Term Loan Applicable Margin for Term Loans that are Base  Rate Loans; and
		

		
			 
		

		
			(ii)        during such periods as such Term Loan is a LIBOR Loan, at LIBOR for such Term Loan for the Interest Period therefor, plus   the Term Loan Applicable Margin for Term Loan that are LIBOR Loans.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)        Interest Periods.   There may be no more than 4 different Interest Periods for Term Loans that are LIBOR Loans outstanding at the  same  time
		

		
			 
		

		
			(e)        Prepayment.   Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.7. to the contrary,  during the periods set forth below, the Borrower may only prepay the Term Loans, in whole or in part, at the prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount of the Term Loan to be prepaid) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest,  if any,  to the date of prepayment:
		

		
			 
		

			
					
						Period

					
					
						Percentage

				
	
					
						Supplement Effective Date to and including September 3, 2016

					
					
						102.0%

				
	
					
						September 4, 2016 to and  including September 3, 2017

					
					
						101.0%

				
	
					
						All times after September 3, 2017

					
					
						100.0%

				

		
			 
		

		
			The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the amounts payable by it under this subsection in  connection  with the prepayment of the Term Loans is a reasonable calculation of the lost profits of the Term Loan Lenders in view of the difficulties and impracticality of determining actual damages resulting from the prepayment of the Term Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Supplement or  in the Supplemented Credit Agreement, if (i) the Parent or the Borrower is a party to a  merger with a Public  REIT (as defined below) or a Subsidiary of a Public REIT and is not the survivor of such merger, (ii) the Parent or  the Borrower  is a party  to a merger with a  Public REIT or a Subsidiary of a Public REIT and is  the survivor of such  merger and as a  result of such  merger an Event of Default under Section 11.1.(l) shall occur, or  (iii) a Public REIT or a Subsidiary of a Public REIT shall acquire more  than 50.0% of  the total voting power of the then outstanding voting stock of the Parent (each of the transactions described in the
		

		
			 
		

		
			

		 

		

			

		

			- 4 -

		

		

			LEGAL02/35729719v6

		

		

 

preceding clauses (i) through (iii) an “Exempt Transaction”), then so long as no Event of Default shall exist  (other than an Event of Default resulting solely from  the occurrence of the Exempt Transaction), any prepayment of the Term Loans made in connection with such Exempt Transaction shall be at the price of
		

		
			100% of the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans rather than  the amount set forth  in  the  table above in this subsection (e). For purposes of this subsection, the term “Public REIT” means a REIT having
		

		
			at least one class of common shares having trading privileges on the New York Stock Exchange or NYSE
		

		
			Amex Equities or which is subject to price quotations on The NASDAQ Stock Market’s National Market
		

		
			System.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(f)         Term Loan Facility Fees.   During the period from the Supplement Effective Date to and including the Term Loan Availability Termination Date, the Borrower agrees to  pay to the Administrative  Agent for the account of the Term Loan Lenders an unused facility fee equal to the sum of the daily amount of the Term Loan Commitments available multiplied by a per annum rate equal to 0.25%.   Such  fee shall be computed on a daily basis and payable quarterly  in arrears on the first day of each January, April,  July and October that occurs during the Term Loan Availability Period and on the Term Loan Availability  Termination Date.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(g)        Certain Amendments.   No amendment, waiver or consent shall modify the definition of “Term Loan Availability Termination Date” as set forth in this Supplement without the written consent of  the Borrower and each Term Loan Lender directly affected  thereby.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(f)Term Loan Lenders.   Each Term Loan Lender shall constitute a “Lender”  for all purposes
		

		
			under the Supplemented Credit Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(g)        Titled Agents.   On  the Supplement Effective Date, PNC Bank, National Association shall be awarded the title of “Syndication Agent” with respect to the Class of Term Loans established hereunder and U.S. Bank National Association shall be awarded the title of “Documentation Agent” with respect to  the Class of Term Loans established hereunder. Such titles shall be subject to the terms of Section 12.9.  of  the Credit Agreement and  shall be in addition to all titles awarded on  the Effective Date.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 3.   Conditions Precedent.   The effectiveness of this Supplement,  including without  limitation, the obligation of the Term Loan Lenders to make Term Loans pursuant to Section 2(b) of this Supplement,  is subject  to  the condition precedent  that the Administrative Agent receive each of the  following, each in  form and substance  satisfactory to the Administrative Agent:
