 Exhibit 10.6 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

This AGREEMENT, dated as of October 30, 2013 (the “Agreement”), by and among Surgical Care Affiliates, Inc. (the
“Parent”), Surgical Care Affiliates LLC (the “Employer” and together with the Parent, the “Company”) and Richard L. Sharff, Jr. (the “Executive”). 

WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive desire that any existing agreements related to the Executive’s employment with the Company or any
of its affiliates, including the Employment Agreement between the Parent, the Employer and the Executive, dated July 24, 2007, as amended (the “Original Agreement”), but not including stock option and restricted stock unit
grant agreements outstanding on the date hereof, be superseded by this Agreement and be of no further force or effect (except as otherwise provided herein); and 

WHEREAS, the Company desires that the Executive serve the Company as its Executive Vice President and General Counsel on the terms and
conditions set forth herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein and for other good and valuable
consideration, the parties agree as follows: 
  

	 	1.	Employment, Duties and Agreements. 

 (a) The Company hereby agrees to employ the
Executive as its Executive Vice President and General Counsel, and the Executive hereby accepts such position and agrees to serve the Company in such capacity during the employment period fixed by Section 3 hereof (the “Employment
Period”). The Executive shall report to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or its designee and shall have such duties and responsibilities as are consistent with the Executive’s position. During the Employment Period, the
Executive shall be subject to, and shall act in accordance with, all reasonable instructions and directions, and all applicable policies and rules, of the Company, including without limitation any policy with respect to equity hedging. The
Executive’s principal work location shall be at the Company’s offices in Birmingham, Alabama or such other location as the Executive and the Company shall mutually agree, (hereinafter the “Principal Place of Business”)
provided that the Executive may be required to travel as necessary in order to perform his duties and responsibilities hereunder. 
 (b)
During the Employment Period, excluding any periods of vacation and sick leave to which the Executive is entitled, the Executive shall devote his full working time, energy and attention to the performance of his duties and responsibilities hereunder
and shall faithfully and diligently endeavor to promote the business and best interests of the Company. 
 (c) During the Employment Period,
the Executive may not, without the prior written consent of the Board of Directors of the Parent (the “Board”), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, directly or indirectly, operate, participate in the management,
operations or control of, or act as an executive, officer, consultant, agent or representative of, any type of business or service (other than as an executive of the Company), provided that it shall not be a violation of the foregoing for the
Executive to (i) continue to serve on the board of another company of which the Executive is currently serving, as set forth on Exhibit A hereto, provided that such companies are not competitors of the Company; (ii) serve on the
board of directors of trade associations and/or charitable organizations; (iii) engage in charitable activities and community affairs; and (iv) manage his personal investments and affairs; provided that the activities described in
the preceding clauses (i) through (iv) do not interfere with the proper performance of his duties and responsibilities hereunder. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, except as otherwise provided in Section 12(b), this Agreement supersedes any
existing agreements related to the Executive’s employment with the Company or any of its affiliates, including the Original Agreement, but not including stock option and restricted stock unit grant agreements outstanding on the date hereof, and
such agreements shall be of no further force or effect. 

	 	2.	Compensation. 

 (a) As compensation for the agreements made by the Executive herein and
the performance by the Executive of his obligations hereunder, during the Employment Period, the Employer shall pay the Executive, pursuant to the Employer’s normal and customary payroll procedures, a base salary at the rate of $325,000 per
annum, (the “Base Salary”), subject to annual review and increases as determined by the Board in its discretion; provided that effective January 1, 2014, the Executive’s Base Salary shall be $400,000 per annum. 

(b) In addition to the Base Salary, during the Employment Period, the Executive shall be eligible to participate in the executive bonus
program (the “Program”), to be established and approved by the Board from time to time and, pursuant to the Program, the Executive may earn an annual bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) in each fiscal year during the
Employment Period, with a target Annual Bonus of 60% of Base Salary up to a maximum of 120% of Base Salary, based on the achievement of annual performance objectives as set forth in the Program, subject to the Executive’s employment with the
Company through the applicable payment date for any such Annual Bonus (except as otherwise provided herein). Annual Bonuses shall be paid as soon as practicable following the end of the fiscal year to which such Annual Bonus relates, and in any
event no later than March 31 of the year following such fiscal year. 
 (c) During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be
eligible to participate in the equity or equity-based incentive plans of the Parent as may be established by the Board from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions thereof. 

(d) During the Employment Period, the Executive and his eligible dependents shall be entitled to participate in all welfare benefit and
savings and retirement plans, practices, policies and programs of the Employer (including the Employer’s health insurance and disability plans) provided by the Employer which are made available generally to other executive officers of the
Company (for the avoidance of doubt, such plans, practices, policies or programs shall not include any plan, practice, policy or program which provides benefits in the nature of severance or continuation pay). 

(e) The Employer shall reimburse the Executive for all reasonable business expenses upon the presentation of statements of such expenses in
accordance with the Company’s policies and procedures now in force or as such policies and procedures may be modified with respect to all senior executive officers of the Company. 

 

	 	3.	Employment Period. 

 The Employment Period shall be effective as of the date hereof (the
“Effective Date”) and shall terminate on the third anniversary of the Effective Date, provided that on the third anniversary of the Effective Date and on each anniversary thereafter, the Employment Period shall automatically be
extended for additional one-year periods unless either party provides the other party with notice of non-renewal at least ninety (90) days before any such anniversary (the anniversary date on which the Employment Period terminates shall be
referred to herein as the “Scheduled Termination Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated during the Employment Period prior to the Scheduled Termination Date upon the
earliest to occur of the following events (at which time the Employment Period shall be terminated): 
 (a) Death. The
Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon his death. 

  
 2 

 (b) Disability. The Company shall be entitled to terminate the Executive’s employment
hereunder for “Disability” if, as a result of the Executive’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness or injury, the Executive (i) shall become eligible to receive a benefit under the Company’s long-term disability plan
applicable to the Executive, or (ii) the Executive has been unable, due to physical or mental illness or incapacity, to perform the essential duties of his employment with reasonable accommodation for a continuous period of 90 days or an
aggregate of 180 days. 
 (c) Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder for Cause. For purposes of
this Agreement, the term “Cause” shall mean: (i) the Executive’s act of fraud, misappropriation, or embezzlement with respect to the Company; (ii) the Executive’s indictment for, conviction of, or plea of guilty
or no contest to, any felony; (iii) the suspension or debarment of the Executive or of the Company or any of its affiliated companies or entities as a direct result of any act or omission of the Executive in connection with his employment with
the Company from participation in any Federal or state health care program; (iv) the Executive’s admission of liability of, or finding of liability for, the willful violation of any “Securities Laws” (as hereinafter defined);
(v) the Executive’s repeated failure after reasonable prior written notice to comply with any valid and legal directive of the Chief Executive Officer or the Board; or (vi) other than as provided in Sections 3(c)(i) —
(v) above, the Executive’s breach of any material provision of this Agreement that is not remedied within fifteen (15) days of the Executive being provided written notice thereof from the Company. Repeated breaches of a similar
nature, such as the failure to report to work, perform duties, or follow directions, all as provided herein, shall not require additional notices as provided Section 3(c)(vi). As used herein, the term “Securities Laws” means
any Federal or state law, rule or regulation governing the issuance or exchange of securities, including without limitation the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. 

(d) Without Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder during the Employment Period without Cause,
which shall include the Company providing notice of non-renewal of this Agreement prior to any Scheduled Termination Date pursuant to and in accordance with Section 3 hereof. 

(e) For Good Reason. The Executive may terminate this Agreement at any time upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the
Company and the Company fails to cure such event within such sixty (60)-day period (any such termination referenced in clauses (i) — (v) below, unless the Executive shall have consented in writing thereto, constituting termination for
“Good Reason”): (i) if the Company fails to make all or any portion of any payment required by Sections 2(a) and (b) hereof within a reasonable time after such payments are due; (ii) if the Company materially modifies
the Program such that the targeted cash bonus levels described in Section 2(b) herein and applicable to the Executive are lower than those levels of other similarly-situated executive officers of the Company; (iii) upon a material
diminution of the Executive’s duties, responsibilities or positions, including without limitation an adverse change to his reporting relationships as set forth in Section 1(a) of this Agreement; (iv) the relocation of the
Executive’s work location set forth in Section 1(a) more than fifty (50) miles from the Principal Place of Business; and/or (v) except as otherwise set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, if the Company materially
breaches any of its other duties or obligations hereunder. 
 (f) Voluntarily. The Executive may voluntarily terminate his employment
hereunder (other than for Good Reason), provided that the Executive provides the Company with notice of his intent to terminate his employment at least sixty (60) days in advance of the Date of Termination (as defined in Section 4 below).

  
 3 

	 	4.	Termination Procedure. 

 (a) Notice of Termination. Any termination of the
Executive’s employment by the Company or by the Executive during the Employment Period (other than a termination on account of the death of Executive) shall be communicated by written “Notice of Termination” to the other party hereto
in accordance with Section 12(a). 
 (b) Date of Termination. “Date of Termination” shall mean (i) if the
Executive’s employment is terminated by his death, the date of his death, (ii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 3(b), on the date the Executive receives Notice of Termination from the Company,
(iii) if the Executive voluntarily terminates his employment (including for Good Reason), the date specified in the notice given pursuant to Section 3(e) or (f) herein, as applicable, which shall not be less than sixty (60) days
after the Notice of Termination, and (iv) if the Executive’s employment is terminated for any other reason, the date on which a Notice of Termination is given or any later date (within thirty (30) days, or any alternative time period
agreed upon by the parties, after the giving of such notice) set forth in such Notice of Termination; provided, that, the Company may terminate the Executive’s employment at any time for Cause. 

 

	 	5.	Termination Payments. 

 (a) Without Cause or for Good Reason. In the event of the
termination of the Executive’s employment during the Employment Period (i) by the Company without Cause, (ii) by the Executive for Good Reason or (iii) if the Company provides a notice of non-renewal of the Employment Period
under Section 3, by the Executive or the Company for any reason effective at any time on or after the Scheduled Termination Date, and in each case other than a CIC Termination described in Section 5(d), during the eighteen (18) months
following the Date of Termination (the “Salary Continuation Period”) the Executive shall receive, in addition to his accrued but unused vacation and Base Salary through the Date of Termination and any Annual Bonus in respect of the
prior fiscal year (to the extent earned but not theretofore paid), salary continuation payments paid in accordance with the Company’s normal and customary payroll practices at the same rate as the Executive’s annual Base Salary. On the
date that bonuses are otherwise paid to participants in the Program, a single lump sum payment will be payable equal to the Executive’s Annual Bonus, based upon achievement of performance objectives as set forth in the Program, multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full weeks in the period beginning on the first day of the then-current annual performance period and ending on the Date of Termination and the denominator of which is fifty two (the “Pro
Rata Bonus”). In addition, during the eighteen (18) month period following the Date of Termination, the Company shall continue to provide medical benefits to the Executive which are (and on terms which are) substantially similar to
those provided generally to executive officers of the Company pursuant to such medical plan as may be in effect from time to time (it being understood that the Company may provide such coverage by paying the Executive’s COBRA premiums, less any
contribution required by the Executive consistent with the contributions required of similarly situated executives who continue to be employed by the Company); provided, however, that if the Executive becomes re-employed with another employer
and is eligible to receive health insurance benefits under another employer provided plan, the Executive is obligated to promptly notify the Company of any changes in his benefits coverage and the Company reimbursements described herein shall
terminate (the “Continued Healthcare Benefit”). The Executive also shall be entitled to reimbursement of any and all reasonable business expenses incurred in connection with the Executive’s duties and responsibilities under
this Agreement in accordance with Company policy, to the extent not previously reimbursed. The salary continuation payments, the Pro Rata Bonus and 

  
 4 

 
reimbursement for COBRA (as such term is defined below) continuation coverage are subject to and conditioned upon the Executive executing a valid general release and waiver (in the form
acceptable to the Company), waiving all claims the Executive may have against the Company, its successors, assigns, affiliates, executives, officers and directors, and such waiver becoming effective on or before the thirtieth (30th) day following the Date of Termination, and the payments and benefits are subject to and conditioned upon the Executive’s compliance with the Restrictive Covenants provided in Sections 7
and 8 hereof (together, the “Conditions”). Except as set forth herein, the Executive shall not be required to mitigate any damages that the Executive may incur as a result of a termination of his employment by the Company without
Cause or for Good Reason during the Employment Period. Except as provided in this Section 5(a), and except for any vested benefits under any tax qualified pension plans of the Company, and continuation of health insurance benefits on the terms
and to the extent required by Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”) and Section 601 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (which provisions are commonly known
as “COBRA”), the Company shall have no additional obligations under this Agreement. 
 (b) Disability or Death. If
the Executive’s employment is terminated during the Employment Period as a result of the Executive’s death or Disability, the Company shall pay the Executive or the Executive’s estate, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days
following the Date of Termination: (i) the Executive’s accrued but unused vacation; (ii) his accrued but unpaid Base Salary; (iii) any unpaid Annual Bonus earned by the Executive in respect of the fiscal year ending immediately
prior to the Date of Termination; and (iv) the Pro Rata Bonus (subject to, and conditioned upon, in the event the Executive’s employment terminated as a result of the Executive’s Disability, the Executive satisfying the Conditions).
Except as provided in this Section 5(b), and except for any vested benefits under any tax qualified pension plans of the Company, and continuation of health insurance benefits on the terms and to the extent required by COBRA, the Company shall
have no additional obligations under this Agreement. 
 (c) Cause or Voluntarily. If the Executive’s employment is terminated
during the Employment Period by the Company for Cause or voluntarily by the Executive other than for Good Reason, the Company shall pay the Executive within thirty (30) days following the Date of Termination: (i) the Executive’s
accrued but unused vacation through the Date of Termination; and (ii) his accrued but unpaid Base Salary through the Date of Termination. Except as provided in this Section 5(c) and except for any vested benefits under any tax qualified
pension plans of the Company, and continuation of health insurance benefits on the terms and to the extent required by COBRA, the Company shall have no additional obligations under this Agreement. 

(d) Change in Control Termination. In lieu of the payments and benefits described in Section 5(a) above, but subject to and
conditioned upon the Executive satisfying the Conditions, in the event the Executive’s employment is terminated (x) by the Company without Cause, (y) by the Executive for Good Reason or (z) if the Company provides a notice of
non-renewal of the Employment Period under Section 3, by the Executive or the Company for any reason effective at any time on or after the Scheduled Termination Date, and in each such case occurring within the three (3) months prior to the
consummation of, or within the twenty-four (24) month period following the occurrence of, a Change in Control (such termination, a “CIC Termination”), the Executive shall be entitled to, in addition to his accrued but unused
vacation and Base Salary through the Date of Termination and any Annual Bonus in respect of the prior fiscal year (to the extent earned but not theretofore paid), subject to the Executive satisfying the Conditions (i) an amount equal to one and
one-half times (1.5x) the sum of (A) the Executive’s then-current Base Salary and (B) the Executive’s target Annual Bonus, payable in a lump sum within forty (40) days following the date of such CIC Termination,
(ii) the Pro Rata Bonus, and (iii) the Continued Healthcare Benefit. For any such termination occurring prior to the consummation of a Change in Control, Section 5(a) shall apply upon such termination and upon the occurrence of the
Change in Control 

  
 5 

 
this Section 5(d) shall apply, with the payments and benefits due under this Section 5(d) reduced by the payments and benefits previously received under Section 5(a) through the
date thereof. For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” shall mean a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company, or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company, within
the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Code and U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5). Except as provided in this Section 5(d) and except for any vested benefits under any tax qualified pension plans of the Company,
and continuation of health insurance benefits on the terms and to the extent required by COBRA, the Company shall have no additional obligations under this Agreement. 
  

	 	6.	Legal Fees; Indemnification; Officers’ Liability Insurance. 

 (a) In the event of
any contest or dispute between the Company and the Executive with respect to this Agreement or the Executive’s employment hereunder, each of the parties shall be responsible for its respective legal fees and expenses; provided that in
the event of any dispute between the Company and the Executive that arises during the three (3) months preceding or at any time following the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Company shall be responsible for reimbursing the Executive for
the Executive’s reasonable legal fees and expenses in the event that the Executive prevails on at least one material issue central to the dispute in a final, non-appealable judgment of such dispute. 

(b) During the Employment Period and thereafter with regard to the Executive’s activities during the Employment Period on behalf of the
Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates, or as a fiduciary of any benefit plan of any of them, the Company shall indemnify the Executive to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (other than in connection with the Executive’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct), and shall at the Company’s election provide the Executive with legal representation or shall advance to the Executive reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses as such fees and expenses are incurred
(subject to an undertaking from the Executive to repay such advances if it shall be finally determined by a judicial decision which is not subject to further appeal that the Executive was not entitled to the reimbursement of such fees and expenses).
During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to the same directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage that the Company provides generally to its other directors and officers, as may be amended from time to time
for such directors and officers. 
  

	 	7.	Non-Solicitation. 

 During the Employment Period and for eighteen (18) months
thereafter, the Executive hereby agrees not to, directly or indirectly, solicit or assist any other Person (as defined below) in soliciting any employee of the Company or any of its affiliates to perform services for any entity (other than the
Company or its affiliates), attempt to induce any such employee to leave the employ of the Company or its affiliates, or hire or engage on behalf of himself or any other Person any employee of the Company or anyone who was employed by the Company
during the six-month period preceding such hiring or engagement. An individual’s response to a broad and general advertisement or solicitation not specifically targeting or intending to target employees of the Company, its subsidiaries or any
of affiliates shall not be deemed a violation of this Section 7. 
  

	 	8.	Confidentiality; Non-Compete; Non-Disclosure; Non-Disparagement. 

 (a) The Executive
hereby agrees that, during the Employment Period and thereafter, he will hold in strict confidence any proprietary or Confidential Information related to the Company and its affiliates. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential
Information” shall mean all information of the Company or any of its affiliates (in whatever form) which is not generally known to the public, including without limitation any inventions, processes, methods of distribution, customer lists
or customers’ or trade secrets. 

  
 6 

 (b) The Executive and the Company agree that the Company would likely suffer significant harm
from the Executive’s competing with the Company during the Employment Period and for some period of time thereafter. Accordingly, the Executive agrees that he will not, during the Employment Period and for a period of eighteen (18) months
following the termination of the Employment Period for any reason, directly or indirectly, become employed by, engage in business with, serve as an agent or consultant to, become a partner, member, principal, stockholder or other owner (other than a
holder of less than 1% of the outstanding voting shares of any publicly held company) of, or otherwise perform services relating to, the Business (as defined below) for any Person that is engaged in, or otherwise competes or has a reasonable
potential for competing with the Business (as defined herein), anywhere in which the Company or its subsidiaries engage in or intend to engage in the Business or where the Company or its subsidiaries’ customers are located (whether or not for
compensation); provided, that this Section 8 shall not restrict or prohibit the Executive from providing legal services to any Person to the extent any such restriction or prohibition violates the applicable law of any jurisdiction in
which the Executive is admitted to practice law or the rules of professional conduct of any such jurisdiction, and provided further, that any such restriction or prohibition shall be null and void and of no force or effect solely to the extent
required by such applicable law or rules of professional conduct. For purposes of Sections 7 and 8, the term “Person” shall mean any individual, partnership, corporation, limited liability company, unincorporated organization, trust
or joint venture, or a governmental agency or political subdivision thereof. For purposes of Sections 7 and 8, the “Business” shall mean the operation and administration of a network of ambulatory surgical care centers or surgical
hospitals providing facilities and medical staff (with re-syndication of ownership interests by participating physicians). 
 (c) The
Executive hereby agrees that upon the termination of the Employment Period, he shall not take, without the prior written consent of the Company, any Confidential Information, including without limitation any business plans, contact lists, strategic
plans or reports or other document (in whatever form) of the Company or its affiliates, relating to its or their methods of distribution, or any description of any formulas or secret processes and will return any such information (in whatever form)
then in his possession. 
 (d) The Executive hereby agrees not to defame or disparage the Company, its affiliates and their officers,
directors, members or executives. The Executive hereby agrees to cooperate with the Company in refuting any defamatory or disparaging remarks by any third party made in respect of the Company or its affiliates or their directors, members, officers
or executives. 
  

	 	9.	Injunctive Relief. 

 It is impossible to measure in money the damages that will accrue to
the Company in the event that the Executive breaches any of the restrictive covenants provided in Sections 7 and 8 hereof. In the event that the Executive breaches any such restrictive covenant, the Company shall be entitled to an injunction
restraining the Executive from violating such restrictive covenant (without posting any bond). If the Company shall institute any action or proceeding to enforce any such restrictive covenant, the Executive hereby waives the claim or defense that
the Company has an adequate remedy at law and agrees not to assert in any such action or proceeding the claim or defense that the Company has an adequate remedy at law. The foregoing shall not prejudice the Company’s right to require the
Executive to account for and pay over to the Company, and the Executive hereby agrees to account for and pay over, the compensation, profits, monies, accruals or other benefits derived or received by the Executive as a result of any transaction
constituting a breach of any of the restrictive covenants provided in Sections 7 and 8 hereof. 

  
 7 

	 	10.	Section 280G. 

 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other
plan, arrangement, or agreement to the contrary, if any of the payments or benefits provided or to be provided by the Company or its affiliates to the Executive or for the Executive’s benefit pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise
(“Covered Payments”) constitute parachute payments (“Parachute Payments”) within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and would, but for this Section 10, be subject to the excise tax imposed under
Section 4999 of the Code (or any successor provision thereto) or any similar tax imposed by state or local law or any interest or penalties with respect to such taxes (collectively, the “Excise Tax”), then the Covered Payments
shall be payable either (i) in full or (ii) reduced to the minimum extent necessary to ensure that no portion of the Covered Payments is subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing (i) or (ii) results in the
Executive’s receipt on an after-tax basis of the greatest amount of benefits after taking into account the applicable federal, state, local and foreign income, employment and excise taxes (including the Excise Tax). If Covered Payments are
reduced, such Covered Payments shall be reduced in a manner that maximizes the Executive’s economic position. In applying this principle, the reduction shall be made in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code,
to the extent applicable, and where two or more economically equivalent amounts are subject to reduction but payable at different times, such amounts payable at the later time shall be reduced first but not below zero (0). 

 

	 	11.	Representations. 

 The parties hereto hereby represent that they each have the authority
to enter into this Agreement, and the Executive hereby represents to the Company that the execution of, and performance of duties under, this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of or otherwise violate any other agreement to which the Executive
is a party. 
  

	 	12.	Miscellaneous. 

 (a) Any notice or other communication required or permitted under this
Agreement shall be effective only if it is in writing and shall be deemed to be given when delivered personally or four days after it is mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested or one day after it is sent by
a reputable overnight courier service and, in each case, addressed as follows (or if it is sent through any other method agreed upon by the parties):

At his most recent address shown on the payroll records of the Employer 

or to such other address as any party hereto may designate by notice to the others. 

(b) This Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the matters set forth hereunder, and
supersedes and is in full substitution for any and all prior understandings or agreements with respect to such matters including the Original Agreement except (i) with respect to the Executive’s rights to amounts that are earned and vested
prior to the Effective Date, and (ii) that Section 6(b) shall survive with respect to acts and omissions prior to the Effective Date. 

(c) This Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto, and any provision hereof may be waived only
by an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties against whom or which enforcement of such waiver is sought. The failure of any party hereto at any time to require the performance by any other party hereto of any provision hereof shall in
no way affect the full right to require such performance at any time thereafter, nor shall the waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision hereof be taken or held to be a waiver of any succeeding breach of such provision or a waiver of
the provision itself or a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement. 
 (d) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that each party
has reviewed and negotiated the terms and provisions of this Agreement and has had the opportunity to contribute to its revision. Accordingly, the rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are resolved against the drafting party shall not
be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement. Rather, the terms of this Agreement shall be construed fairly as to both parties hereto and not in favor or against either party. 

(e) This Agreement is binding on and is for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors,
administrators and other legal representatives. Neither this Agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder may be assigned by the Executive. 

(f) The Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would have been required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. As used in the
Agreement, “the Company” shall mean both the Company as defined above and any such successor that assumes this Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise. 

  
 9 

 (g) Any provision of this Agreement (or portion thereof) which is deemed invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction and subject to this Section, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without affecting in any way the remaining provisions thereof in such
jurisdiction or rendering that or any other provisions of this Agreement invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction. If any covenant should be deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable because its scope is considered excessive, such
covenant shall be modified so that the scope of the covenant is reduced only to the minimum extent necessary to render the modified covenant valid, legal and enforceable. No waiver of any provision or violation of this Agreement by the Company shall
be implied by the Company’s forbearance or failure to take action. 
 (h) The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under
this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (except to the extent exempt as short-term deferrals or otherwise) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement
shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits subject to Section 409A of
the Code upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to
a “termination,” “termination of employment,” “termination of the Employment Period” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” The determination of whether and when a separation from service has
occurred shall be made in a manner consistent with, and based on the presumptions set forth in, U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h) or any successor provision thereto. It is intended that each installment, if any, of the payments and
benefits provided hereunder shall be treated as a separate “payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. Neither the Company nor the Executive shall have the right to accelerate or defer the delivery of any such payments or
benefits except to the extent specifically permitted or required by Section 409A of the Code; and if, as of the date of the “separation from service,” the Executive is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of that term
under Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code, or any successor provision thereto), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is subject to this section (whether under this Agreement, or pursuant to any other agreement with
or plan, program, payroll practice of the Company) and is due upon or as a result of the Executive’s separation from service, such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided, to the extent making or providing such payment or benefit would
result in additional taxes or interest under Section 409A of the Code, until the date which is the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service,” and
(ii) the date of the Executive’s death (the “Delay Period”) and this Agreement and each such agreement, plan, program, or payroll practice shall hereby be deemed amended accordingly. Upon the expiration of the Delay
Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 12(h) (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to the Executive in a lump
sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein. All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement or otherwise
to the Executive shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code to the extent that such reimbursements or in-kind benefits are subject to Section 409A of the Code. All expenses or other
reimbursements paid pursuant herewith and therewith that are taxable income to Executive shall in no event be paid later than the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which Executive incurs such expense or pays such related
tax. With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Section 409A of the Code, the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to
liquidation or exchange for 

  
 10 

 
another benefit, the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind
benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year, provided that, the foregoing clause shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Section 105(b) of the Code solely because such expenses are
subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect and such payments shall be made on or before the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense occurred. 

(i) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Alabama without reference to its principles
of conflicts of law. 
 (j) This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of
which shall constitute one and the same instrument. A facsimile of a signature shall be deemed to be and have the effect of an original signature. 

(k) The headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be a part of or control or affect the meaning
of any provision hereof.

 CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS 
 Section 4.1 Capital Contributions of the
Partners. 
 The Partners have heretofore made Capital Contributions to the Partnership. Each Partner owns Partnership
Units in the amount set forth for such Partner in the books and records of the Partnership, as the same may be amended or updated from time to time by the General Partner to the extent necessary to reflect accurately sales, exchanges or other
Transfers, redemptions, Capital Contributions, the issuance of additional Partnership Units, or similar events having an effect on a Partner’s ownership of Partnership Units. Except as provided by law or in Section 4.2, 4.3, or 10.4

Partners (including the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner) or to other Persons, and to admit such Persons as Additional Limited Partners, for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as shall be established by the General
Partner in its sole and absolute discretion, all without the approval of any Limited Partner or any other Person. Without limiting the foregoing, the General Partner is expressly authorized to cause the Partnership to issue Partnership Interests
(i) upon the conversion, redemption or exchange of any Debt, Partnership Interests, or other securities issued by the Partnership, (ii) for less than fair market value, (iii) for no consideration and (iv) in connection with any
merger or consolidation of any other Person into the Partnership. Any additional Partnership Interests may be issued in one or more classes, or one or more series of any of such classes, with such designations, preferences, conversion or other
rights, voting powers or rights, restrictions, limitations as to distributions, qualifications or terms or conditions of redemption (including, without limitation, terms that may be senior or otherwise entitled to preference over existing
Partnership Interests) as shall be determined by the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion and without the approval of any Limited Partner or any other Person, and set forth in a written document thereafter attached to and made an
exhibit to this Agreement, which exhibit shall be an amendment to this Agreement and shall be incorporated herein by this reference (each, a “Partnership Unit Designation”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
General Partner shall have authority to specify, in its sole and absolute discretion: (a) the allocations of items of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction and credit to each such class or series of Partnership Interests; (b) the right
of each such class or series of Partnership Interests to share (on a pari passu, junior or preferred basis) in Partnership distributions; (c) the rights of each such class or series of Partnership Interests upon dissolution and
liquidation of the Partnership; (d) the voting rights, if any, of each such class or series of Partnership Interests; and (e) the conversion, redemption or exchange rights applicable to each such class or series of Partnership Interests.
Upon the issuance of any additional Partnership Interest, the General Partner shall update the books and records of the Partnership as appropriate to reflect such issuance. 

  
 21 

 B. Issuances to the General Partner or Special Limited Partner. No additional
Partnership Units shall be issued to the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner unless (i) the additional Partnership Units are issued to all Partners holding Partnership Units of a specified class or series in proportion to their
respective Percentage Interests in the Partnership Units of such class or series, (ii) (a) the additional Partnership Units are (x) Partnership Common Units issued in connection with an issuance of REIT Shares, or (y) Partnership
Equivalent Units (other than Partnership Common Units) issued in connection with an issuance of Preferred Shares, New Securities or other interests in the Special Limited Partner (other than REIT Shares), with corresponding economic terms, and
(b) the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner (as the case may be) contributes directly or indirectly to the Partnership the cash proceeds (net of its expenses relating to such issuance) or other consideration received in connection
with the issuance of such REIT Shares, Preferred Shares, New Securities or other interests in the Special Limited Partner, (iii) the additional Partnership Units are issued upon the conversion, redemption or exchange of Debt, Partnership Units
or other securities issued by the Partnership or (iv) the additional Partnership Units are issued pursuant to Section 4.3.B, Section 4.3.D, Section 4.4, Section 4.5 or Section 4.7. 

C. No Preemptive Rights. Except as specified in Section 4.2.B(i) hereof or as provided in a Partnership Unit
Designation, no Person, including, without limitation, any Partner or Assignee, shall have any preemptive, preferential, participation or similar right or rights to subscribe for or acquire any Partnership Interest. 

Section 4.3 Additional Funds and Capital Contributions. 

A. General. The General Partner may, at any time and from time to time, determine that the Partnership requires additional
funds (“Additional Funds”) for the acquisition or development of additional Properties, for the redemption of Partnership Interests or for such other purposes as the General Partner may determine, in its sole and absolute
discretion. Additional Funds may be obtained by the Partnership, at the election of the General Partner, in any manner provided in, and in accordance with, the terms of this Section 4.3 without the approval of any Limited Partner or any other
Person. 
 B. Additional Capital Contributions. The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, may
obtain any Additional Funds by accepting Capital Contributions from any Partners or other Persons. In connection with any such Capital Contribution (of cash or property), the General Partner is hereby authorized, in its sole and absolute discretion,
to cause the Partnership from time to time to issue additional Partnership Interests (as set forth in Section 4.2 above) in consideration therefor and the Percentage Interests of the General Partner and the Limited Partners shall be adjusted to
reflect the issuance of such additional Partnership Interests. 
 C. Loans. The General Partner, in its
sole and absolute discretion on behalf of the Partnership, may obtain any Additional Funds by causing the Partnership to incur Debt to any Person (including the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner or Parent) upon such terms as the General
Partner determines appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion, including making such Debt convertible, redeemable or exchangeable for Partnership Units, REIT Shares or Parent Shares; provided, however, that the Partnership shall
not incur any such Debt if any Limited Partner would be personally liable for the repayment of such Debt (unless such Limited Partner otherwise agrees). 
 D. Issuance of Securities by the Special Limited Partner. The Special Limited Partner shall not issue any additional REIT Shares, Capital Shares or New Securities unless the Special Limited
Partner contributes the cash proceeds or other consideration received from the issuance of such additional REIT Shares, Capital Shares or New Securities (as the case may be) and from the exercise of the rights contained in any such additional
Capital Shares or New Securities directly or indirectly to the Partnership in exchange for (x) in the case of an issuance of REIT Shares, Partnership Common Units, or (y) in the case of an issuance of Capital Shares or New Securities,
Partnership Equivalent Units; provided, however,  

  
 22 

 
that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Limited Partner may issue REIT Shares, Capital Shares or New Securities (a) pursuant to Section 4.4, Section 4.5 or Section 4.7
hereof, (b) pursuant to a dividend or distribution (including any stock split) of REIT Shares, Capital Shares or New Securities to all of the holders of REIT Shares, Capital Shares or New Securities (as the case may be), (c) upon a
conversion, redemption or exchange of Capital Shares, (d) upon a conversion, redemption, exchange or exercise of New Securities, or (e) in connection with an acquisition of Partnership Interests or a property or other asset to be owned,
directly or indirectly, by the Special Limited Partner. In the event of any issuance of additional REIT Shares, Capital Shares or New Securities by the Special Limited Partner, and the contribution to the Partnership, directly or indirectly, by the
Special Limited Partner, of the cash proceeds or other consideration received from such issuance (or property acquired with such proceeds), if any, if the cash proceeds actually received by the Special Limited Partner are less than the gross
proceeds of such issuance as a result of any expenses paid or incurred in connection with such issuance, then the Special Limited Partner shall be deemed to have made a Capital Contribution to the Partnership in the amount equal to the sum of the
cash proceeds of such issuance plus the amount of such expenses paid by the Special Limited Partner (which discount and expense shall be treated as an expense for the benefit of the Partnership for purposes of Section 7.4). In the event that
the Special Limited Partner issues any additional REIT Shares, Capital Shares or New Securities and contributes, directly or indirectly, the cash proceeds or other consideration received from the issuance thereof to the Partnership, the Partnership
is expressly authorized to issue a number of Partnership Common Units or Partnership Equivalent Units to the Special Limited Partner equal to the number of REIT Shares, Capital Shares or New Securities so issued, divided by the REIT Share Adjustment
Factor then in effect, in accordance with this Section 4.3.D without any further act, approval or vote of any Partner or any other Persons. 
 Section 4.4 Stock Option Plans and Equity Plans. 

A. Future Stock Incentive Plans. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed or applied to preclude or restrain the General
Partner, the Special Limited Partner or Parent from adopting, modifying or terminating stock incentive plans for the benefit of employees, directors or other business associates of the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner, Parent, the
Partnership or any of their Affiliates. The General Partner may implement such plans and any actions taken under such plans (such as the grant or exercise of options to acquire REIT Shares or Parent Shares, or the issuance of restricted or
unrestricted REIT Shares or restricted or unrestricted Parent Shares), whether taken with respect to or by an employee or other service provider of Parent, the Special Limited Partner, the Partnership or its Subsidiaries, in a manner reasonably
determined by the General Partner, which may be set forth in plan implementation guidelines that the General Partner may adopt or amend from time to time. The Partners acknowledge and agree that, in the event that any such plan or implementation
guideline is adopted, modified or terminated by the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner or Parent, amendments to this Agreement may become necessary or advisable and that any such amendments requested by the General Partner, the Special
Limited Partner or Parent shall not require any Consent or approval by the Limited Partners or any other Person. 

B. Issuance of Partnership Units; REIT Shares and New Securities. The Partnership is expressly authorized to issue
Partnership Units and the Special Limited Partner is expressly authorized to issue REIT Shares or New Securities as contemplated by this Section 4.4 or any plan or plan implementation guidelines referred to in paragraph A above without any
further act, approval or vote of any Partner or any other Persons. 

  
 23 

 Section 4.5 Dividend Reinvestment Plan, Cash Option Purchase Plan, Stock Incentive Plan or
Other Plan.  
 Except as may otherwise be provided in this Article 4, all amounts received or deemed received by
the Special Limited Partner in respect of any dividend reinvestment plan, cash option purchase plan, stock incentive or other stock or subscription plan or agreement, either (a) shall be utilized by the Special Limited Partner to effect
purchases of REIT Shares, or (b) if the Special Limited Partner elects instead to issue new REIT Shares with respect to such amounts, shall be contributed by the Special Limited Partner to the Partnership in exchange for additional Partnership
Common Units. Upon such contribution, the Partnership will issue to the Special Limited Partner a number of Partnership Common Units equal to the quotient of (i) the new REIT Shares so issued, divided by (ii) the REIT Share Adjustment
Factor then in effect. The Partnership is expressly authorized to issue Partnership Common Units as contemplated by this Section 4.5 without any further act, approval or vote of any Partner or any other Persons. 

Section 4.6 No Interest; No Return. 
 No Partner shall be entitled to interest on its Capital Contribution or on such Partner’s Capital Account. Except as provided herein or by law, no Partner shall have any right to demand or receive
the return of its Capital Contribution from the Partnership. 
 Section 4.7 Conversion or Redemption of REIT Shares and Capital
Shares. 
 A. Conversion of Capital Shares. If, at any time, any of the Capital Shares are converted
into REIT Shares, in whole or in part, then a number of Partnership Units held by the Special Limited Partner with preferences, conversion and other rights (other than redemption and voting rights), restrictions (other than restrictions on
transfer), rights and limitations as to dividends and other distributions and qualifications that are substantially the same as the preferences, conversion and other rights (other than redemption and voting rights), restrictions (other than
restrictions on transfer), rights and limitations as to dividends and other distributions and qualifications of such Capital Shares (“Partnership Equivalent Units”) (for the avoidance of doubt, Partnership Equivalent Units need not
have voting rights, redemption rights or restrictions on transfer that are substantially equivalent to such Capital Shares) equal to the number of Capital Shares so converted shall automatically be converted into a number of Partnership Common Units
equal to the quotient of (i) the number of REIT Shares issued upon such conversion divided by (ii) the REIT Share Adjustment Factor then in effect, and the Percentage Interests of the General Partner and the Limited Partners shall be
adjusted to reflect such conversion. 
 B. Redemption of Capital Shares or REIT Shares. Except as otherwise
provided in Section 7.4.C., if, at any time, any Capital Shares are redeemed or otherwise repurchased (whether by exercise of a put or call, automatically or by means of another arrangement) by the Special Limited Partner for cash, immediately
prior to such redemption or repurchase of Capital Shares, an equal number of the corresponding Partnership Equivalent Units held by the Special Limited Partner shall automatically be redeemed by the Partnership upon the same terms and for the same
price per Partnership Equivalent Unit as such Capital Shares are redeemed or repurchased. If, at any time, any REIT Shares are forfeited or redeemed or otherwise repurchased or reacquired by the Special Limited Partner, immediately prior to such
forfeiture, redemption, reacquisition or repurchase of REIT Shares, a number of Partnership Common Units held by the Special Limited Partner equal to the quotient of (i) the REIT Shares so forfeited, redeemed, reacquired or repurchased, divided
by (ii) the REIT Share Adjustment Factor then in effect, shall automatically be redeemed by the Partnership, such redemption to be upon the same terms and for the same price per Partnership Common Unit (after giving effect to application of the
REIT Share Adjustment Factor) as such REIT Shares are redeemed, repurchased or otherwise reacquired, or, in the case of a forfeiture of REIT Shares, shall automatically be forfeited by the Special Limited Partner for no consideration.

 Section 4.8 Other Contribution Provisions. 

In the event that any Partner is admitted to the Partnership and is given a Capital Account in exchange for services rendered to the
Partnership, such transaction shall be treated by the Partnership and the affected Partner as if the Partnership had compensated such Partner in cash and such Partner had contributed the cash that the Partner would have received to the capital of
the Partnership. In addition, with the Consent of the General Partner, one or more Partners (including the Special Limited Partner) may enter into contribution agreements with the Partnership which have the effect of providing a guarantee of certain
obligations of the Partnership (and/or a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Partnership). 
 ARTICLE 5 

DISTRIBUTIONS 

Section 5.1 Requirement and Characterization of Distributions. 

Subject to the rights of any Holder of any Partnership Interest set forth in a Partnership Unit Designation, the General Partner
may cause the Partnership to distribute such amounts, at such times, as the General Partner may, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine to the Holders as of any Partnership Record Date: (i) first, with respect to any Partnership Units
that are entitled to any preference in distribution, in accordance with the rights of Holders of such class(es) of Partnership Units (and, within each such class, among the Holders of each such class, pro rata in proportion to their respective
Percentage Interests of such class on such Partnership Record Date); and (ii) second, with respect to any Partnership Units that are not entitled to any preference in distribution, in accordance with the rights of Holders of such class(es) of
Partnership Units, as applicable (and, within each such class, among the Holders of each such class, pro rata in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests of such class on such Partnership Record Date). Distributions payable with respect
to any Partnership Units, other than any Partnership Units issued to the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner in connection with the issuance of REIT Shares by the Special Limited Partner, that were not outstanding during the entire
quarterly period in respect of which any distribution is made shall be prorated based on the portion of the period that such Partnership Units were outstanding. The General Partner shall make such reasonable efforts, as determined by it in its sole
and absolute discretion and consistent with the Special Limited Partner’s and Parent’s qualification as a REIT, to cause the Partnership to distribute sufficient amounts to enable the Special Limited Partner and Parent, for so long as the
Special Limited Partner or Parent has determined to qualify as a REIT, to pay stockholder dividends that will (a) satisfy the requirements for qualifying as a REIT under the Code and Regulations (the “REIT Requirements”) and
(b) except to the extent otherwise determined by the Special Limited Partner or Parent, eliminate any federal income or excise tax liability of the Special Limited Partner or Parent. 

Section 5.2 Distributions in Kind. 
 Except as expressly provided herein, no right is given to any Holder to demand and receive property other than cash as provided in this Agreement. The General Partner may determine, in its sole and
absolute discretion, to cause the Partnership to make a distribution in kind of Partnership assets to the Holders, and such assets shall be distributed in such a fashion as to ensure that the fair market value is distributed and allocated in
accordance with Articles 5, 6 and 13 hereof; provided, however, that the General Partner shall not make a distribution in kind to any Holder unless the Holder has been given 90 days prior written notice of such distribution. 

Section 5.3 Amounts Withheld. 
 All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any state, local or non-United States tax law and Section 10.4 hereof with respect to any allocation, payment or distribution to any
Holder shall be treated as amounts paid or distributed to such Holder pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof for all purposes under this Agreement. 

  
 25 

 Section 5.4 Distributions upon Liquidation. 

Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article 5, net proceeds from a Terminating Capital Transaction, and any other amounts
distributed after the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, shall be distributed to the Holders in accordance with Section 13.2 hereof. 

Section 5.5 Distributions to Reflect Additional Partnership Units. 

In the event that the Partnership issues additional Partnership Units pursuant to the provisions of Article 4 hereof, subject to the
rights of any Holder of any Partnership Interest set forth in a Partnership Unit Designation, the General Partner is hereby authorized to amend this Agreement as it determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, is necessary or desirable to
reflect the issuance of such additional Partnership Units, including, without limitation, making preferential distributions to Holders of certain classes of Partnership Units, all without the consent of any Partner or any other Person. 

Section 5.6 Restricted Distributions. 
 Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither the Partnership nor the General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, shall be required to make a distribution to any
Holder if such distribution would violate the Act or other applicable law. 
 ARTICLE 6 

ALLOCATIONS 

Section 6.1 Timing and Amount of Allocations of Net Income and Net Loss. 

Net Income and Net Loss of the Partnership shall be determined and allocated with respect to each Partnership Year as of the end of each
such year, provided that the General Partner may, in its sole and absolute discretion, allocate Net Income and Net Loss for a shorter period as of the end of such period (and, for purposes of this Article 6, references to the term “Partnership
Year” may include such shorter periods). Except as otherwise provided in this Article 6, and subject to Section 11.6.C hereof, an allocation to a Holder of a share of Net Income or Net Loss shall be treated as an allocation of the
same share of each item of income, gain, loss or deduction that is taken into account in computing Net Income or Net Loss. 

Section 6.2 General Allocations. 
 Except as otherwise provided in this Article 6 and Section 11.6.C hereof, Net Income and Net Loss for any Partnership Year shall be allocated to each of the Holders as follows: 

A. Allocations of Net Income (Loss). Net Income of the Partnership shall be allocated among the Holders in a manner such
that the Capital Accounts of each Holder, immediately after making such allocation, is, as nearly as possible, equal (proportionately) to (i) the distributions that would be made to such Holder pursuant to Article 5 hereof if the
Partnership was dissolved, its affairs wound up and its assets sold for cash equal to their Gross Asset Value, all Partnership liabilities (including liabilities allocated to the Partnership from an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal
income tax purposes in which the Partnership was a Holder) were satisfied (limited with respect to each nonrecourse liability to the Gross Asset Value of the assets securing such liability) and the net assets of the Partnership were 

  
 26 

 
distributed in accordance with Article 5 hereof to the Holders immediately after making such allocation, minus (ii) any amount such Holder is obligated to contribute to the
Partnership and such Holder’s share of Partnership Minimum Gain and Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, computed immediately prior to the hypothetical sale of assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the General Partner may make any such
allocations as it deems reasonably necessary to give economic effect to the provisions of this Agreement, taking into account such facts and circumstances as the General Partner deems reasonably necessary for this purpose. 

Section 6.3 Regulatory Allocation Provisions. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 6: 
 A. Regulatory
Allocations. 
 (i) Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Regulations
Section 1.704-2(f), notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2 hereof, or any other provision of this Article 6, if there is a net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain during any Partnership Year, each Holder shall be specially
allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Holder’s share of the net decrease in Partnership Minimum Gain, as determined under Regulations
Section 1.704-2(g). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Holder pursuant thereto. The items to be allocated shall be determined in accordance with
Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 6.3.A(i) is intended to qualify as a “minimum gain chargeback” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted
consistently therewith. 
 (ii) Partner Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise
provided in Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) or in Section 6.3.A(i) hereof, if there is a net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Minimum Gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt during any Partnership Year, each Holder who has a
share of the Partner Nonrecourse Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain for such year (and,
if necessary, subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Holder’s share of the net decrease in Partner Nonrecourse Minimum Gain attributable to such Partner Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations
Section 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Holder pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance
with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 6.3.A(ii) is intended to qualify as a “chargeback of partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” within the meaning of Regulations
Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. 
 (iii) Nonrecourse
Deductions and Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Nonrecourse Deductions for any Partnership Year shall be specially allocated to the Holders in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests. Any Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any
Partnership Year shall be specially allocated to the Holder(s) who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Partner Nonrecourse Debt to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable, in accordance with Regulations
Section 1.704-2(i). 
 (iv) Qualified Income Offset. If any Holder unexpectedly receives an
adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Partnership income and gain shall be specially allocated, in accordance with Regulations

  
 27 

 
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), to such Holder in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by such Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of such Holder
as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.3.A(iv) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Holder would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided in this
Article 6 have been tentatively made as if this Section 6.3.A(iv) were not in the Agreement. It is intended that this Section 6.3.A(iv) qualify and be construed as a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of
Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith. 
 (v)
Gross Income Allocation. In the event that any Holder has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Partnership Year that is in excess of the sum of (1) the amount (if any) that such Holder is obligated to restore to the Partnership
upon complete liquidation of such Holder’s Partnership Interest (including, the Holder’s interest in outstanding Partnership Preferred Units and other Partnership Units) and (2) the amount that such Holder is deemed to be obligated to
restore pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(c) or the penultimate sentences of Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each such Holder shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain in the
amount of such excess to eliminate such deficit as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 6.3.A(v) shall be made if and only to the extent that such Holder would have a deficit Capital Account in excess
of such sum after all other allocations provided in this Article 6 have been tentatively made as if this Section 6.3.A(v) and Section 6.3.A(iv) hereof were not in the Agreement. 

(vi) Limitation on Allocation of Net Loss. To the extent that any allocation of Net Loss would cause or increase an
Adjusted Capital Account Deficit as to any Holder, such allocation of Net Loss shall be reallocated (x) first, among the other Holders of Partnership Common Units in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests with respect to
Partnership Common Units and (y) thereafter, among the Holders of other classes of Partnership Units as determined by the General Partner, subject to the limitations of this Section 6.3.A(vi). 

(vii) Section 754 Adjustment. To the extent that an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Partnership
asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining
Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Holder in complete liquidation of its interest in the Partnership, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis
of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Holders in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests in the event that Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Holder(s) to whom such distribution was made in the event that Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies. 

(viii) Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in Sections 6.3.A(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v),
(vi) and (vii) hereof (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain regulatory requirements, including the requirements of Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2. Notwithstanding the
provisions of Sections 6.1 and 6.2 hereof, the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the Holders so that to the extent possible without violating the requirements
giving rise to the Regulatory Allocations, the net amount of such allocations of other items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Holder shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Holder if the Regulatory
Allocations had not occurred. 

  
 28 

 B. Allocation of Excess Nonrecourse Liabilities. For purposes of determining a
Holder’s proportional share of the “excess nonrecourse liabilities” of the Partnership within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), each Holder’s respective interest in Partnership profits shall be equal to such
Holder’s Percentage Interest with respect to Partnership Common Units, except as otherwise determined by the General Partner. 

Section 6.4 Tax Allocations. 
 A. In General. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.4, for income tax purposes under the Code and the Regulations, each Partnership item of income, gain, loss and deduction
(collectively, “Tax Items”) shall be allocated among the Holders in the same manner as its correlative item of “book” income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated pursuant to Sections 6.2 and 6.3 hereof.

 B. Section 704(c) Allocations. Notwithstanding Section 6.4.A hereof, Tax Items with respect to Property
that is contributed to the Partnership with an initial Gross Asset Value that varies from its basis in the hands of the contributing Partner immediately preceding the date of contribution shall be allocated among the Holders for income tax purposes
pursuant to Regulations promulgated under Code Section 704(c) so as to take into account such variation. The Partnership shall account for such variation under any method approved under Code Section 704(c) and the applicable
Regulations as chosen by the General Partner. In the event that the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership asset is adjusted pursuant to subsection (b) of the definition of “Gross Asset Value” (provided in Article 1 hereof),
subsequent allocations of Tax Items with respect to such asset shall take account of the variation, if any, between the adjusted basis of such asset and its Gross Asset Value in a manner consistent with Code Section 704(c) and the
applicable Regulations and using the method chosen by the General Partner. Allocations pursuant to this Section 6.4.B are solely for purposes of federal, state and local income taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in
computing, any Partner’s Capital Account or share of Net Income, Net Loss, or any other items or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE 7 
 MANAGEMENT AND OPERATIONS OF BUSINESS 

Section 7.1 Management. 
 A. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, including any Partnership Unit Designation, all management powers over the business and affairs of the Partnership are and shall be exclusively

Limited Partner qualifies as a REIT) (a) to prevent the imposition of any federal income tax on Parent or the Special Limited Partner (including, for this purpose, any excise tax pursuant to Code Section 4981), (b) to make
distributions to its stockholders and (c) payments to any taxing authority sufficient to permit Parent and the Special Limited Partner to maintain REIT status or otherwise to satisfy the REIT Requirements), the assumption or guarantee of, or

(5) the mortgage, pledge, encumbrance or hypothecation of any assets of the Partnership, the assignment of any assets of
the Partnership in trust for creditors or on the promise of the assignee to pay the debts of the Partnership, the use of the assets of the Partnership (including, without limitation, cash on hand) for any purpose consistent with the terms of this

 C. At all times from and after the date hereof,
the General Partner may cause the Partnership to obtain and maintain (i) casualty, liability and other insurance on the Properties and (ii) liability insurance for the Indemnitees hereunder. 

D. At all times from and after the date hereof, the General Partner may cause the Partnership to establish and maintain working capital

 E. In exercising its authority under this Agreement, the General Partner may, but shall be under no obligation to (except as otherwise provided by this Agreement with respect to the qualification of
Parent and the Special Limited Partner as REITs), take into account the tax consequences to any Partner of any action taken (or not taken) by it. The General Partner, the Special Limited Partner and the Partnership shall not have liability to a

F. The determination as to any matter relating to the business and affairs of the Partnership, including the following matters, made by
or at the direction of the General Partner consistent with this Agreement and the Act, shall be final and conclusive and shall be binding upon the Partnership and every Limited Partner and shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement, of any

elect, to require the Special Limited Partner to acquire Tendered Units in exchange for Parent Shares; whether any acquisition of Tendered Units in exchange for Parent Shares would or might cause any Person to violate the Parent Shares Ownership
Limit; the Parent Shares Amount at any time; any interpretation of this Agreement or the terms, preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers or rights, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or distributions, qualifications or terms or
conditions of redemption of any class or series of Partnership Interest; the fair value, or any sale, 

  
 33

class or series; any matter relating to the acquisition, holding and disposition of any assets by the Partnership; or any other matter relating to the business and affairs of the Partnership or required or permitted by applicable law, this Agreement
or otherwise to be determined by the General Partner. 
 Section 7.2 Certificate of Limited Partnership. 

To the extent that such action is determined by the General Partner to be reasonable and necessary or appropriate, the General Partner
shall file amendments to and restatements of the Certificate and do all the things to maintain the Partnership as a limited partnership (or a partnership in which the limited partners have limited liability) under the laws of the State of Delaware
and each other state, the District of Columbia or any other jurisdiction, in which the Partnership may elect to do business or own property. Subject to the terms of Section 8.5.A hereof, the General Partner shall not be required, before or
after filing, to deliver or mail a copy of the Certificate or any amendment thereto to any Limited Partner. The General Partner shall use all reasonable efforts to cause to be filed such other certificates or documents as may be reasonable and
necessary or appropriate for the formation, continuation, qualification and operation of a limited partnership (or a partnership in which the limited partners have limited liability to the extent provided by applicable law) in the State of Delaware
and any other state, or the District of Columbia or other jurisdiction, in which the Partnership may elect to do business or own property. 

Section 7.3 Restrictions on General Partner’s Authority. 

A. The General Partner may not take any action in contravention of an express prohibition or limitation of this Agreement without the
Consent of the Limited Partners, and may not, without limitation perform any act that would subject a Limited Partner to liability as a general partner in any jurisdiction in which the Partnership is formed or does business or any other liability
except as provided herein or under the Act. 
 B. Except as provided in Section 7.3.C hereof, the General Partner shall
not, without the prior Consent of the Limited Partners, amend, modify or terminate this Agreement. 
 C. Notwithstanding
Section 7.3.B and 14.2 hereof but subject to the rights of any Holder of any Partnership Interest set forth in a Partnership Unit Designation, the General Partner shall have the power, without the consent of any Limited Partner or other Person,
to amend this Agreement as may be required to facilitate or implement any of the following purposes: 
 (1) to
add to the obligations of the General Partner or surrender any right or power granted to the General Partner or any Affiliate of the General Partner for the benefit of the Limited Partners; 

(2) to reflect the admission, substitution or withdrawal of Partners, a Transfer or any other redemption, conversion or
purchase of any Partnership Interest, the termination of the Partnership in accordance with this Agreement and to update the books and records of the Partnership in connection with such admission, substitution, withdrawal, Transfer, adjustment or
other event, including, without limitation, the admission of Parent or any wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent as the Special Limited Partner upon a merger or consolidation of the Special Limited Partner with and into Parent or such wholly-owned
subsidiary of Parent, with Parent or such wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent continuing as the surviving corporation, or any Transfer by the Special Limited Partner of its interest in the Partnership to Parent or any wholly-owned subsidiary of
Parent; 

  
 34 

 (3) to reflect a change that is of an inconsequential nature or does not
adversely affect the Limited Partners in any material respect, or to cure any ambiguity, correct or supplement any provision in this Agreement not inconsistent with law or with other provisions, or make other changes with respect to matters arising
under this Agreement that will not be inconsistent with law or with the provisions of this Agreement; 
 (4) to
set forth or amend the designations, preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to distributions, qualifications or terms or conditions of redemption of the Holders of any additional Partnership Interests
issued pursuant to Article 4, including as contemplated by Section 4.2.A and Section 5.5; 
 (5) to

Partner; 
 (7) to modify either or both of the manner in which items of Net Income or Net Loss are allocated
pursuant to Article 6 or the manner in which Capital Accounts are adjusted, computed, or maintained (but in each case only to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement and as may be permitted under applicable law); 

(8) to reflect the issuance of additional Partnership Interests in accordance with Section 4.2; 

(9) to reflect any modification to this Agreement permitted by Section 4.4.A or any other provision of this Agreement
that authorizes the General Partner to make amendments without the consent of any other Person; 
 (10) to
reflect any modification to this Agreement as is necessary or desirable (as determined by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion) in connection with any merger or consolidation of the Special Limited Partner with and into Parent or
any wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, or any Transfer by the Special Limited Partner of its interest in the Partnership to Parent or any wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent; 

(11) to reflect any modification to this Agreement as is necessary or desirable (as determined by the General Partner in
its sole and absolute discretion), including, without limitation, to the definition of “Parent Share Adjustment Factor” or “REIT Share Adjustment Factor,” to reflect the direct ownership of assets by the General Partner or the
Special Limited Partner, as applicable, as contemplated by Section 7.5; and 
 (12) to reflect any other
modification to this Agreement as is reasonably necessary for the business or operations of the Partnership or the Special Limited Partner and which does not violate Section 7.3.D. 

  
 35 

 D. Notwithstanding Sections 7.3.B, 7.3.C and 14.2 hereof, this Agreement shall not be
amended, and no action may be taken by the General Partner, without the Consent of each Partner materially adversely affected thereby, if such amendment or action would (i) convert a Limited Partner Interest in the Partnership into a General
Partner Interest (except any Limited Partner Interest held by the General Partner), (ii) adversely modify the limited liability of a Limited Partner, (iii) alter the rights of any Partner to receive the distributions to which such Partner
is entitled pursuant to Article 5 or Section 13.2.A(4) hereof, or alter the allocations specified in Article 6 hereof (except, in any case, as permitted pursuant to Sections 4.2, 4.4, 4.5, 5.5, 7.3.C and Article 6 hereof),
(iv) alter or modify the Redemption rights, Cash Amount or Parent Shares Amount as set forth in Section 15.1 hereof, or amend or modify any related definitions, (v) subject to Section 7.9.D, remove, alter or amend the powers and
restrictions related to REIT Requirements or permitting the Special Limited Partner to avoid paying tax under Code Sections 857 or 4981 contained in Sections 3.2, 7.1 and 7.3, or (vi) amend this Section 7.3.D. Any such amendment
or action consented to by any Partner shall be effective as to that Partner, notwithstanding the absence of such consent by any other Partner. Further, no amendment may alter the restrictions on the General Partner’s powers expressly set forth
elsewhere in this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Section 7.3) without the Consent specified therein. 

Section 7.4 Reimbursement of the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner. 

A. Neither the General Partner nor the Special Limited Partner shall be compensated for its services as general partner or limited partner
of the Partnership except as provided in this Agreement (including the provisions of Articles 5 and 6 hereof regarding distributions, payments and allocations to which the General Partner or Special Limited Partner may be entitled in its capacity as
the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable). 
 B. Subject to Sections 7.4.D and 15.12
hereof, the Partnership shall be responsible for and shall pay all expenses relating to the Partnership’s, the General Partner’s, the Special Limited Partner’s and Parent’s organization and the ownership of each of their assets
and operations. The General Partner is hereby authorized to cause the Partnership to pay compensation for accounting, administrative, legal, technical, management and other services rendered to the Partnership. The Partnership shall be liable for,
and shall reimburse the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner or Parent, as applicable, on a monthly basis, or such other basis as the General Partner may determine in its sole and absolute discretion, for all sums expended in connection with
the Partnership’s business, including, without limitation, (i) expenses relating to the ownership of interests in and management and operation of the Partnership, (ii) compensation of officers and employees, including, without
limitation, payments under future compensation plans of Parent, the Special Limited Partner, the General Partner or the Partnership that may provide for stock units, or phantom stock, pursuant to which employees, officers or directors of Parent, the
Special Limited Partner, the General Partner or the Partnership will receive payments based upon dividends on or the value of Parent Shares or REIT Shares, as the case may be, (iii) director fees and expenses of Parent, the Special Limited
Partner or their respective Affiliates, (iv) any expenses (other than the purchase price) incurred by Parent or the Special Limited Partner in connection with the redemption or other repurchase of Parent Shares, REIT Shares or Capital Shares,
and (v) all costs and expenses of Parent or the Special Limited Partner of being a public company, including, without limitation, costs of filings with the SEC, reports and other distributions to its stockholders; provided,
however, that the amount of any reimbursement shall be reduced by any interest earned by the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner or Parent with respect to bank accounts or other instruments or accounts held by it on behalf of the
Partnership. The Partners acknowledge that all such expenses of the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner and Parent are deemed to be for the benefit of the Partnership. Such reimbursements shall be in addition to any reimbursement of the
General Partner, the Special Limited Partner and Parent as a result of indemnification pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof. 

  
 36 

 C. If the Special Limited Partner shall elect to purchase from its stockholders REIT Shares
or Capital Shares for the purpose of delivering such REIT Shares or Capital Shares to satisfy an obligation under any dividend reinvestment program adopted by the Special Limited Partner, any employee stock purchase plan adopted by the Special
Limited Partner or any similar obligation or arrangement undertaken by the Special Limited Partner in the future, in lieu of the treatment specified in Section 4.7.B., the purchase price paid by the Special Limited Partner for such REIT Shares
or Capital Shares shall be considered expenses of the Partnership and shall be advanced to the Special Limited Partner or reimbursed to the Special Limited Partner, subject to the condition that: (1) if such REIT Shares subsequently are sold by
the Special Limited Partner, the Special Limited Partner shall pay or cause to be paid to the Partnership any proceeds received by the Special Limited Partner for such REIT Shares (which sales proceeds shall include the amount of dividends
reinvested under any dividend reinvestment or similar program); and (2) if such REIT Shares are not retransferred by the Special Limited Partner within 30 days after the purchase thereof, or the Special Limited Partner otherwise determines not
to retransfer such REIT Shares, the Partnership shall redeem from the Special Limited Partner a number of Partnership Common Units determined in accordance with Section 4.7.B, as adjusted, to the extent the General Partner determines is
necessary or advisable in its sole and absolute discretion, (x) pursuant to Section 7.5 (in the event the Special Limited Partner acquires material assets, other than on behalf of the Partnership) and (y) for stock dividends and
distributions, stock splits and subdivisions, reverse stock splits and combinations, distributions of rights, warrants or options, and distributions of evidences of indebtedness or assets relating to assets not received by the Special Limited
Partner pursuant to a pro rata distribution by the Partnership (in which case such advancement or reimbursement of expenses shall be treated as having been made as a distribution in redemption of such number of Partnership Units held by the Special
Limited Partner). 
 D. To the extent practicable, Partnership expenses shall be billed directly to and paid by the Partnership
and, subject to Section 15.12 hereof, if and to the extent any reimbursements to the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner or any of its Affiliates by the Partnership pursuant to this Section 7.4 constitute gross income to such
Person (as opposed to the repayment of advances made by such Person on behalf of the Partnership), such amounts shall be treated as “guaranteed payments” within the meaning of Code Section 707(c) and shall not be treated as
distributions for purposes of computing the Partners’ Capital Accounts. 
 Section 7.5 Outside Activities of the General Partner
and the Special Limited Partner. 
 Unless otherwise determined by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion,
neither the General Partner nor the Special Limited Partner shall directly or indirectly enter into or conduct any business, other than in connection with, (a) the ownership, acquisition and disposition of Partnership Interests, (b) with
respect to the General Partner, the management of the business and affairs of the Partnership and its affiliates, (c) with respect to the Special Limited Partner, its operations as a REIT, (d) with respect to the Special Limited Partner,
the offering, sale or issuance of stock, bonds, securities or other interests, (e) financing or refinancing of any type related to the Partnership or its assets or activities, and (f) such activities as are incidental thereto; provided,
however, that, except as otherwise provided herein, any funds raised by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to the preceding clauses (d) and (e) shall be made available to the Partnership, whether as Capital Contributions, loans or
otherwise, as appropriate, and, provided, further that each of the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner may, in its sole and absolute discretion, from time to time hold or acquire assets in its own name or otherwise other than through the
Partnership so long as the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable, takes commercially reasonable measures to ensure that the economic benefits and burdens of such Property are otherwise vested in the Partnership, through
assignment, mortgage loan or otherwise or, if it is not commercially reasonable to vest such economic interests in the Partnership, the General Partner shall make such amendments to this Agreement, as the General Partner determines are necessary or
desirable, 

  
 37 

 
including, without limitation, the definition of “Parent Share Adjustment Factor” or “REIT Share Adjustment Factor,” to reflect such activities and the direct ownership of
assets by the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner, as applicable. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prohibit the General Partner from executing guarantees of Partnership debt. Unless otherwise determined by the General Partner
in its sole and absolute discretion, the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner and all Disregarded Entities with respect to the Special Limited Partner, taken as a group, shall not own any assets or take title to assets (other than
temporarily in connection with an acquisition prior to contributing such assets to the Partnership) other than (i) interests in Disregarded Entities with respect to the Special Limited Partner, (ii) Partnership Interests as the General
Partner or Special Limited Partner, (iii) a minority interest in any Subsidiary of the Partnership that the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner holds to maintain such Subsidiary’s status as a partnership for federal income tax
purposes or otherwise, and (iv) such cash and cash equivalents, bank accounts or similar instruments or accounts as such group deems reasonably necessary, taking into account Section 7.1.D hereof and the requirements necessary for the
Special Limited Partner or Parent to qualify as a REIT and for the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner to carry out their respective responsibilities contemplated under this Agreement and the Special Limited Partner Charter. Any Limited
Partner Interests acquired by the General Partner, shall be automatically converted into a General Partner Interest comprised of an identical number of Partnership Units with the same terms as the class or series so acquired. Any Affiliates of the
General Partner may acquire Limited Partner Interests and shall, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, be entitled to exercise all rights of a Limited Partner relating to such Limited Partner Interests. 

Section 7.6 Transactions with Affiliates. 
 A. The Partnership may lend or contribute funds to, and borrow funds from, Persons in which the Partnership has an equity investment and Persons who own equity or other interests in the Partnership
(including the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner or Parent), and such Persons may borrow funds from, and lend or contribute funds to, the Partnership, on terms and conditions established in the sole and absolute discretion of the General
Partner. The foregoing authority shall not create any right or benefit in favor of any Person. 
 B. The Partnership may
transfer assets to joint ventures, limited liability companies, partnerships, corporations, business trusts, statutory trusts or other business entities in which it is or thereby becomes a participant upon such terms and subject to such conditions
consistent with this Agreement and applicable law. 
 C. The General Partner, the Special Limited Partner, Parent and their
respective Affiliates may sell, transfer or convey any property to, or purchase any property from, the Partnership, directly or indirectly, on terms and conditions established by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion. 

D. The General Partner, the Special Limited Partner and Parent in their respective sole and absolute discretion and without the approval
of the Partners or any of them or any other Persons, may propose and adopt (on behalf of the Partnership) employee benefit plans funded by the Partnership for the benefit of directors, officers, employees or agents of Parent, the Special Limited
Partner, the General Partner, the Partnership, Subsidiaries of the Partnership or any Affiliate of any of them in respect of services performed, directly or indirectly, for the benefit of Parent, the Special Limited Partner, the General Partner, the
Partnership or any of the Partnership’s Subsidiaries. 

  
 38 

 Section 7.7 Indemnification. 

A. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Partnership shall indemnify each Indemnitee from and against any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and other legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims,
demands, actions, suits or proceedings, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, whether by or in the right of the Partnership or otherwise that relate to the operations of the Partnership (“ Actions “) as set forth in this
Agreement in which such Indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise; provided, however, that the Partnership shall not indemnify an Indemnitee (i) if the act or omission of the Indemnitee
was material to the matter giving rise to the Action and either was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty; (ii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, if the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe
that the act or omission was unlawful; or (iii) for any loss resulting from any transaction for which such Indemnitee actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services in violation or breach of any provision of this
Agreement; and provided, further, that no payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be made by the Partnership (x) to indemnify or advance expenses to any Indemnitee with respect to any Action initiated or brought voluntarily by
such Indemnitee (and not by way of defense) unless (I) approved or authorized by the General Partner or (II) incurred to establish or enforce such Indemnitee’s right to indemnification under this Agreement or (y) to indemnify an
Indemnitee in connection with one or more claims or Actions involving such Indemnitee if such Indemnitee is found liable to the Partnership with respect to such claim or Action. If Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder with respect to
one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in any Action, the Partnership shall provide indemnification hereunder in connection with each such claim, issue or matter, allocated on a reasonable and proportionate basis. 

Without limitation, the foregoing indemnity shall extend to any liability of any Indemnitee, pursuant to a loan guaranty or
otherwise, for any indebtedness of the Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Partnership (including, without limitation, any indebtedness which the Partnership or any Subsidiary of the Partnership has assumed or taken subject to), and the General
Partner is hereby authorized and empowered, in its sole and absolute discretion on behalf of the Partnership, to enter into one or more indemnity agreements consistent with the provisions of this Section 7.7 in favor of any Indemnitee having or
potentially having liability for any such indebtedness. It is the intention of this Section 7.7.A that the Partnership indemnify each Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law and this Agreement. The termination of any proceeding by
judgment, order or settlement does not create a presumption that the Indemnitee did not meet the requisite standard of conduct set forth in this Section 7.7.A. The termination of any proceeding by conviction of an Indemnitee or upon a plea
of nolo contendere or its equivalent by an Indemnitee, or an entry of an order of probation against an Indemnitee prior to judgment, does not create a presumption that such Indemnitee acted in a manner contrary to that specified in this
Section 7.7.A with respect to the subject matter of such proceeding. Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be made only out of the assets of the Partnership, and neither the General Partner nor any other Holder shall have
any obligation to pay or otherwise satisfy such indemnification obligation or to contribute to the capital of the Partnership or otherwise provide funds to enable the Partnership to fund its obligations under this Section 7.7.

 B. To the fullest extent permitted by law, expenses incurred by an Indemnitee who is a party to a proceeding or otherwise
subject to or the focus of or is involved in any Action shall be paid or reimbursed by the Partnership as incurred by the Indemnitee in advance of the final disposition of the Action upon receipt by the Partnership of (i) a written affirmation
by the Indemnitee of the Indemnitee’s good faith belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Partnership as authorized in Section 7.7.A has been met, and (ii) a written undertaking by or on behalf of the
Indemnitee to repay the amount if it shall ultimately be determined that the standard of conduct has not been met. 

  
 39 

 C. The indemnification provided by this Section 7.7 shall be in addition to any other
rights to which an Indemnitee or any other Person may be entitled under any agreement, pursuant to any Consent of the Partners, as a matter of law or otherwise, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity and
shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnitee unless otherwise provided in a written agreement with such Indemnitee or in the writing pursuant to which such Indemnitee is indemnified. 

D. The Partnership may, but shall not be obligated to, purchase and maintain insurance, on behalf of any of the Indemnitees and such
other Persons as the General Partner shall determine, against any liability that may be asserted against or expenses that may be incurred by such Person in connection with the Partnership’s activities, regardless of whether the Partnership
would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement. 
 E. Any
liabilities which an Indemnitee incurs as a result of acting on behalf of the Partnership, the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner (whether as a fiduciary or otherwise) in connection with the operation, administration or maintenance of an
employee benefit plan or any related trust or funding mechanism (whether such liabilities are in the form of excise taxes assessed by the IRS, penalties assessed by the U.S. Department of Labor, restitutions to such a plan or trust or other funding
mechanism or to a participant or beneficiary of such plan, trust or other funding mechanism, or otherwise) shall be treated as liabilities or judgments or fines under this Section 7.7, unless such liabilities arise as a result of (i) an
act or omission of such Indemnitee that was material to the matter giving rise to the Action and either was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty; (ii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, an act or
omission that such Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe was unlawful, or (iii) any transaction in which such Indemnitee actually received an improper personal benefit in violation or breach of any provision of this Agreement. 

F. In no event may an Indemnitee subject any of the Holders to personal liability by reason of the indemnification provisions set forth
in this Agreement. 
 G. An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 7.7
because the Indemnitee had an interest (including a conflicted interest) in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement. 

H. The provisions of this Section 7.7 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees, their heirs, successors, assigns and administrators
and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons. Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.7 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on
the Partnership’s liability to any Indemnitee under this Section 7.7 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior
to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted. 
 I. It is the intent of
the parties that any amounts paid by the Partnership to the General Partner or the Special Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be treated as “guaranteed payments” within the meaning of Code Section 707(c) and shall
not be treated as distributions for purposes of computing the Partners’ Capital Accounts. 

  
 40 

 Section 7.8 Liability of the General Partner and its Affiliates.  

A. To the fullest extent permitted by law: (i) Each of the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner, as the sole member of the
General Partner, Parent, as the majority stockholder of the Special Limited Partner, and their respective officers, directors, members and managers, and any other Indemnitee, is acting for the benefit of not only the Partnership and the Partners,
but also the Special Limited Partner’s and Parent’s stockholders, collectively; (ii) in the event of a conflict between the interests of the Partnership or any Partner, on the one hand, and the separate interests of the Special
Limited Partner or Parent, or their stockholders, on the other hand, the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner, as the sole member of the General Partner, Parent, as the majority stockholder of the Special Limited Partner, and their
respective officers, directors, members and managers, and any other Indemnitees, are under no obligation and have no duty (fiduciary or otherwise) not to give priority to the separate interests of the Special Limited Partner or Parent, or the
stockholders of the Special Limited Partner or Parent, and may give priority to the separate interests of the Special Limited Partner or Parent, or the stockholders of the Special Limited Partner or Parent, in a manner that is adverse to the
Partnership and its Partners, and any action or failure to act on the part of the Special Limited Partner, Parent, or their respective officers and directors, or any other Indemnitees, that gives priority to the separate interests of the Special
Limited Partner or Parent, or the stockholders of the Special Limited Partner or Parent, does not violate any duty hereunder or otherwise owed by the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner, as the sole member of the General Partner, Parent, as
majority stockholder of the Special Limited Partner, or their respective officers, directors, members or managers, or any other Indemnitees, to the Partnership and/or the Partners or any other Person bound by this Agreement; and (iii) none of
the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner, Parent, or their respective officers, directors, members or managers, or any other Indemnitee, shall be liable to the Partnership or to any Partner or any other Person bound by this Agreement for
monetary damages for losses sustained, liabilities incurred or benefits not derived by the Partnership or any Partner in connection with such decisions, except for liability for acts of the General Partner committed in bad faith or resulting from
the active and deliberate dishonesty of the General Partner. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated
herein or applicable provisions of law or equity or otherwise, whenever a conflict arises between the interests of the Special Limited Partner, Parent, or the stockholders of the Special Limited Partner or Parent, on one hand, and any Limited
Partner, on the other hand, the General Partner will endeavor in good faith to resolve the conflict in a manner not adverse to the Special Limited Partner, Parent, or the stockholders of the Special Limited Partner or Parent or any Limited Partner;
provided, however, that for so long as the Special Limited Partner owns a controlling interest in the Partnership and Parent owns a controlling interest in the Special Limited Partner, any conflict that cannot be resolved in a manner not adverse to
the Special Limited Partner, Parent, or the stockholders of the Special Limited Partner or Parent and any Limited Partner shall be resolved in favor of the Special Limited Partner, Parent, or the stockholders of the Special Limited Partner or
Parent, as the case may be, and any action taken by the General Partner or any other Indemnitee in connection with any such conflict of interests shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or any duty at law, in equity or otherwise. Any benefit
received by any Indemnitee as a result of any transaction that does not violate this Section 7.8A shall not be deemed to be an “improper” personal benefit for purposes of Section 7.7, Section 7.8 and Section 8.1.

 B. Subject to its obligations and duties as General Partner set forth in this Agreement and applicable law, the General
Partner may exercise any of the powers granted to it by this Agreement and perform any of the duties imposed upon it hereunder either directly or by or through its employees or agents (subject to the supervision and control of the General Partner).
The General Partner shall not be liable to the Partnership or any Partner for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such employee or agent appointed by it in good faith. The General Partner may consult with legal counsel, accountants,
appraisers, management consultants, investment bankers and other consultants and advisers selected by it, and any act taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon the opinion of such Persons as to matters that the General Partner believes to be
within such Person’s professional or expert competence shall be conclusively presumed to have been taken or omitted to be taken in good faith and shall not constitute a breach of any duty (including any fiduciary duty) or obligation arising at
law or in equity or under this Agreement. 

  
 41 

 C. Any obligation or liability whatsoever of the General Partner or the Partnership which
may arise at any time under this Agreement or any other instrument, transaction, or undertaking contemplated hereby shall be satisfied, if at all, out of the assets of the General Partner or the Partnership only. To the fullest extent permitted
by law, no such obligation or liability shall be personally binding upon, nor shall resort for the enforcement thereof be had to, any of the General Partner’s members, managers or agents, or the directors, officers, stockholders, employees or
agents of the General Partner’s members or managers, including the Special Limited Partner and Parent, regardless of whether such obligation or liability is in the nature of contract, tort or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
set forth in this Agreement, none of the members, managers or agents of the General Partner, and none of the directors, officers, stockholders, employees or agents of the General Partner’s members or managers, including the Special Limited
Partner and Parent or any other Indemnitee, shall be liable or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Partnership, any Partners, or any other Person bound by this Agreement for losses sustained, liabilities incurred or benefits not derived as a
result of errors in judgment or mistakes of fact or law or of any act or omission, except for any such losses sustained, liabilities incurred or benefits not derived as a result of (i) an act or omission on the part of such Person that was
committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty; (ii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, an act or omission on the part of such Person that such Person had reasonable cause to believe was unlawful; or
(iii) for any loss resulting from any transaction for which such Person actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services in violation or breach of any provision of this Agreement. 

D. Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.8 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any
way affect the limitations on the liability of the General Partner or the members, managers or agents of the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner, Parent or of the directors, officers, stockholders, employees or agents of the Special Limited
Partner and Parent, or the Indemnitees, to the Partnership, the Partners or any other Person bound by this Agreement under this Section 7.8 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising
from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted. 
 E. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except for liabilities resulting from (i) an act or omission on the part of such Partner that was committed in bad faith or was the result of
active and deliberate dishonesty; (ii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, an act or omission on the part of such Partner that such Partner had reasonable cause to believe was unlawful; or (iii) any transaction for which such Partner
actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services in violation or breach of any provision of this Agreement, or pursuant to any express indemnities given to the Partnership by any Partner pursuant to any other written
instrument to the fullest extent permitted by law, no Partner shall have any personal liability whatsoever, to the Partnership or to the other Partners or to any other Person bound by this Agreement, including any damages arising out of the breach
of any such Partner’s fiduciary duties as such duties may have been modified by this Agreement. Without limitation of the foregoing, no property or assets of such Partner, other than its interest in the Partnership, shall be subject to levy,
execution or other enforcement procedures for the satisfaction of any judgment (or other judicial process) in favor of any other Partner(s) or any other Person bound by this Agreement and arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement. This
Agreement is executed by the officers of the Special Limited Partner, in the name and on behalf of the Special Limited Partner, in its capacity as managing member of the General Partner, solely as officers of the Special Limited Partner, and not in
their own individual capacities. 

  
 42 

 F. To the extent that, at law or in equity, the General Partner or the Special Limited
Partner, as the sole member of the General Partner or in its capacity as a Limited Partner, or Parent, or any other Indemnitee, has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Partnership or the Limited Partners, none
of the General Partner, the Special Limited Partner, as the sole member of the General Partner or in its capacity as a Limited Partner, or Parent, or any other Indemnitee, shall be liable to the Partnership or to any Partner for its good faith
reliance on the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any otherwise applicable provision of law or in equity, neither the General Partner nor any other Indemnitee shall have any
fiduciary duties, or, to the fullest extent permitted by law, except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement, other duties, obligations or liabilities, to the Partnership, any Limited Partner or any other Person who has acquired an
interest in a Partnership Interest, and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the General Partner and the other Indemnitees shall only be subject to any contractual standards imposed and existing under this Agreement. 

G. To the fullest extent permitted by law and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated
herein or applicable provisions of law or equity or otherwise, whenever in this Agreement any Person is permitted or required to make a decision (i) in its “sole and absolute discretion,” “sole discretion”,
“discretion”, “at its election” or under a grant of similar authority or latitude, such Person shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests, shall have no duty or
obligation to give any consideration to any interest or factors affecting the Partnership, the Partners, or any other Person bound by this Agreement, and shall be entitled to act in a manner adverse to the interests of the Partnership, the Partners
or any other Person bound by this Agreement, or (ii) in its “good faith” or under another expressed standard, such Person shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standards imposed by
this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein or by relevant provisions of law or in equity or otherwise. If any question should arise with respect to the operation of the Partnership, which is not otherwise specifically provided for in
this Agreement or the Act, or with respect to the interpretation of this Agreement, the General Partner is hereby authorized to make a final determination with respect to any such question and to interpret this Agreement in such a manner as it shall
deem, in its sole discretion, to be fair and equitable, and its determination and interpretations so made shall be final and binding on all parties and shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement, of any agreement contemplated herein or therein,
or of any duty existing at law, in equity or otherwise, including any fiduciary duty. 
 H. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, no Indemnitee shall be liable to the Partnership, any Partner or any other Person bound by this Agreement for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Indemnitee in good faith
on behalf of the Partnership and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such Indemnitee by this Agreement, except that an Indemnitee shall be liable for any such loss, damage or claim incurred if
(i) such act or omission was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty; (ii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, if such Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that such act or omission was
unlawful; or (iii) such loss, damage or claim incurred resulted from any transaction for which such Indemnitee actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services in violation or breach of any provision of this
Agreement. 
 I. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this agreement, it is understood and/or agreed that the term
“good faith” as used in this agreement shall, in each case, mean “subjective good faith” as understood and interpreted under Delaware law; provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, any resolution of a conflict of
interest between the Special Limited Partner, the Parent or the interests of stockholders of the Special Limited Partner or Parent, on the one hand, and the Partnership or any Limited Partner on the other hand, in a manner favorable to the Special
Limited Partner, the Parent or the interests of the stockholders of the Special Limited Partner or Parent shall not be deemed a violation of such “subjective good faith” standard.

Partnership, and take any and all actions on behalf of the Partnership, and such Person shall be entitled to deal with the General Partner as if it were the Partnership’s sole party in interest, both legally and beneficially. To the fullest
extent permitted by law, each Limited Partner and each other Person bound by this Agreement hereby waives any and all claims, defenses or other remedies that may be available to such Person to contest, negate or disaffirm any action of the General

and at any time to redeem any and all outstanding Limited Partner Interests (other than the Special Limited Partner’s Limited Partner Interests or the Limited Partner Interests of any affiliate of The Blackstone Group L.P.) by treating any such
Limited Partner as a Tendering Party who has delivered a Notice of Redemption pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof for the amount of Partnership Common Units to be specified by the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, by notice to
such Limited Partner that the Partnership has elected to exercise its rights under this Section 8.6. Such notice given by the General Partner to a Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 8.6 shall be treated as if it were a Notice of
Redemption delivered to the General Partner by such Limited Partner. For purposes of this Section 8.6, (a) any Limited Partner (whether or not otherwise a Qualifying Party) may, in the General Partner’s sole and absolute discretion,
be treated as a Qualifying Party that is a Tendering Party and (b) the provisions of Sections 15.1.F(2) and 15.1.F(3) hereof shall not apply, but the remainder of Section 15.1 hereof shall apply, mutatis mutandis.

 Section 10.3 Tax Matters Partner. 
 A. The General
Partner shall be the “tax matters partner” of the Partnership for federal income tax purposes. The tax matters partner shall receive no compensation for its services. All third-party costs and expenses incurred by the tax matters partner
in performing its duties as such (including legal and accounting fees and expenses) shall be borne by the Partnership in addition to any reimbursement pursuant to Section 7.4 hereof. Nothing herein shall be construed to restrict the Partnership
from engaging an accounting firm to assist the tax matters partner in discharging its duties hereunder. 
 B. The tax matters
partner is authorized, but not required: 
 (1) in the event that a notice of a final administrative adjustment
at the Partnership level of any item required to be taken into account by a Partner for tax purposes (a “Final Adjustment”) is mailed to the tax matters partner, to seek judicial review of such Final Adjustment, including the filing
of a petition for readjustment with the United States Tax Court or the United States Claims Court, or the filing of a complaint for refund with the District Court of the United States for the district in which the Partnership’s principal place
of business is located; 
 (2) to intervene in any action brought by any other Partner for judicial review of a
final adjustment;

tax audit or judicial review proceeding to the extent permitted by applicable law or regulations. 
 The taking of any action
and the incurring of any expense by the tax matters partner in connection with any such proceeding, except to the extent required by law, is a matter in the sole and absolute discretion of the tax matters partner and the provisions relating to
indemnification of the General Partner set forth in Section 7.7 hereof shall be fully applicable to the tax matters partner in its capacity as such.

 Section 10.4 Withholding. 

Each Holder hereby authorizes the Partnership to withhold from or pay on behalf of or with respect to such Holder any amount of
federal, state, local or foreign taxes that the General Partner determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, the Partnership is required to withhold or pay with respect to any amount distributable or allocable to such Holder pursuant to this
Agreement, including, without limitation, any taxes required to be withheld or paid by the Partnership pursuant to Code Section 1441, Code Section 1442, Code Section 1445 or Code Section 1446 (a “Tax Advance”).
Any amount withheld with respect to a Holder pursuant to this Section 10.4 shall be treated as paid or distributed, as applicable, to such Holder for all purposes under this Agreement. Any amount paid on behalf of or with respect to a Holder,
in excess of any such withheld amount, shall constitute a loan by the Partnership to such Holder, which loan shall be repaid by such Holder within thirty (30) days after the affected Holder receives written notice from the General Partner that
such payment must be made, provided that the Holder shall not be required to repay such deemed loan if either (i) the Partnership withholds such payment from a distribution that would otherwise be made to the Holder or (ii) the General
Partner determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that such payment may be satisfied out of the funds of the Partnership that would, but for such payment, be distributed to the Holder. Any amounts payable by a Holder hereunder shall bear
interest at the base rate on corporate loans at large United States money center commercial banks, as published from time to time in the Wall Street Journal (but not higher than the maximum lawful rate) from the date such amount is due (i.e., thirty
(30) days after the Holder receives written notice of such amount) until such amount is paid in full. Each Holder hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership and the General Partner and each other Partner from and against any
liability, claim or expense with respect to any Tax Advance withheld or required to be withheld on behalf of or with respect to such Partner. In the event the Partnership is liquidated and a liability or claim is asserted against, or expense borne
by, the General Partner or any Holder for any Tax Advance, the Partnership shall have the right to be reimbursed from the Holder on whose behalf such withholding or tax payment was made or required to be made. 

Section 10.5 Organizational Expenses. 
 The General Partner may cause the Partnership to elect to deduct expenses, if any, incurred by it in organizing the Partnership ratably over a 180-month period as provided in Section 709 of the Code.

 Section 10.6 Treatment of Partnership as Disregarded Entity. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Partnership is treated as a Disregarded Entity with respect to the
Special Limited Partner during any period, then the other provisions of this Agreement shall be applied (or not applied) in a manner consistent with such treatment with respect to such period, as determined by the General Partner in its sole and
absolute discretion. In the event of any conflict between this Section 10.6 and any other provision of this Agreement, this Section 10.6 shall control.

voluntarily or involuntarily alienated or encumbered except as may be specifically provided for in this Agreement. 

  
 50 

 B. No Partnership Interest shall be Transferred, in whole or in part, except in
accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Article 11. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any Transfer or purported Transfer of a Partnership Interest not made in accordance with this Article 11 shall be null and

 C. No Transfer of any Partnership Interest may be made to a lender to the Partnership or
any Person who is related (within the meaning of Section 1.752-4(b) of the Regulations) to any lender to the Partnership whose loan constitutes a Nonrecourse Liability, without the Consent of the General Partner; provided,
however, that, as a condition to such Consent, the lender may be required to enter into an arrangement with the Partnership and the General Partner to redeem or exchange for the Parent Shares Amount any Partnership Units in which a security
interest is held by such lender simultaneously with the time at which such lender would be deemed to be a partner in the Partnership for purposes of allocating liabilities to such lender under Section 752 of the Code (provided that, for purpose
of calculating the Parent Shares Amount in this Section 11.1.C, “Tendered Units” shall mean all such Partnership Units in which a security interest is held by such lender). 

Section 11.2 Transfer of General Partner’s Partnership Interest. 

A. Subject to the rights of any Holder of any Partnership Interest set forth in a Partnership Unit Designation, the General Partner may
not Transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest (whether by sale, disposition, statutory merger or consolidation, liquidation or otherwise) without the Consent of the Limited Partners (but may do so with the Consent of the Limited
Partners). It is a condition to any Transfer of a Partnership Interest of a General Partner otherwise permitted hereunder that: (i) coincident with such Transfer, the transferee is admitted as a General Partner pursuant to Section 12.1
hereof; (ii) the transferee assumes, by operation of law or express agreement, all of the obligations of the transferor General Partner under this Agreement with respect to such Transferred Partnership Interest; and (iii) the transferee
has executed such instruments as may be necessary to effectuate such admission and to confirm the agreement of such transferee to be bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement with respect to the Partnership Interest so acquired and the
admission of such transferee as a General Partner. 
 B. Certain Transactions of the General Partner. Subject to
the rights of any Holder of any Partnership Interest set forth in a Partnership Unit Designation, the General Partner may, without the consent of any Limited Partner or other Person, Transfer all of its Partnership Interest in connection with
(a) a merger, consolidation or other combination of its assets with another entity, (b) a sale of all or substantially all of the General Partner’s assets not in the ordinary course of the Partnership’s business or (c) a
reclassification, recapitalization or change of any outstanding equity interests of the General Partner (each, a “Termination Transaction”) if: 

(i) in connection with such Termination Transaction, all of the Limited Partners will receive, or will have the right to
elect to receive, for each Partnership Common Unit an amount of cash, securities or other property equal to the product of the Parent Share Adjustment Factor and the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property paid to a holder of one
Parent Share in consideration of one Parent Share pursuant to the terms of such Termination Transaction; provided, that if, in connection with such Termination Transaction, a purchase, tender or exchange offer shall have been made to and accepted by
the holders of the outstanding Parent Shares, each holder of Partnership Common Units shall receive, or shall have the right to elect to receive, the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property which such holder of Partnership Common Units
would have received had it exercised its right to Redemption pursuant to Article 15 hereof and received Parent Shares in exchange for its Partnership Common Units immediately prior to the expiration of such purchase, tender or exchange offer
and had thereupon accepted such purchase, tender or exchange offer and then such Termination Transaction were consummated; or 

  
 51 

 (ii) all of the following conditions are met: (w) substantially all of
the assets directly or indirectly owned by the surviving entity are owned directly or indirectly by the Partnership or another limited partnership or limited liability company which is the survivor of a merger, consolidation or combination of assets
with the Partnership (in each case, the “Surviving Partnership”); (x) the Limited Partners that held Partnership Common Units immediately prior to the consummation of such Termination Transaction own a percentage interest of
the Surviving Partnership based on the relative fair market value of the net assets of the Partnership and the other net assets of the Surviving Partnership immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction; (y) the rights, preferences
and privileges in the Surviving Partnership of such Limited Partners are at least as favorable as those in effect with respect to the Partnership Common Units immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction and as those applicable to any
other limited partners or non-managing members of the Surviving Partnership; and (z) the rights of such Limited Partners include at least one of the following: (a) the right to redeem their interests in the Surviving Partnership for the
consideration available to such persons pursuant to Section 11.2.B(i) or (b) the right to redeem their interests in the Surviving Partnership for cash on terms substantially equivalent to those in effect with respect to their
Partnership Common Units immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction, or, if the ultimate controlling person of the Surviving Partnership has publicly traded common equity securities, such common equity securities, with an exchange
ratio based on the determination of relative fair market value of such securities and the Parent Shares. 
 C. Notwithstanding
the other provisions of this Article 11 (other than Section 11.6.D hereof), the General Partner may Transfer all of its Partnership Interests at any time to any Person that is, at the time of such Transfer an Affiliate of the General
Partner, including any “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)), without the Consent of any Limited Partners. The provisions of Section 11.2.B, 11.3, 11.4.A and 11.5 hereof shall not apply to any
Transfer permitted by this Section 11.2.C. 
 D. Except in connection with Transfers permitted in this Article 11 and as
otherwise provided in Section 12.1 in connection with the Transfer of the General Partner’s entire Partnership Interest, the General Partner may not voluntarily withdraw as a general partner of the Partnership without the Consent of the
Limited Partners. 
 Section 11.3 Limited Partners’ Rights to Transfer. 

A. General. Prior to the end of the applicable Restricted Period and except as provided in Section 11.1.C hereof, no
Limited Partner shall Transfer all or any portion of its Partnership Interest to any transferee without the Consent of the General Partner, which may be given or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion; provided, however, that any
Limited Partner may, at any time, without the consent or approval of the General Partner, (i) Transfer all or part of its Partnership Interest to any Family Member (including a Transfer by a Family Member that is an inter vivos or testamentary
trust (whether revocable or irrevocable) to a Family Member that is a beneficiary of such trust), any Charity, any Controlled Entity or any Affiliate, or (ii) pledge (a “Pledge”) all or any portion of its Partnership Interest
to a lending institution as collateral or security for a bona fide loan or other extension of credit, and Transfer such pledged Partnership Interest to such lending institution in connection with the exercise of remedies under such loan or extension
of credit (any Transfer or Pledge permitted by this proviso is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Transfer”). After such Restricted Period, each Limited Partner, and each transferee of a Limited Partner Interest or Assignee
pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, shall have the right to Transfer all  

  
 52 

 
or any portion of its Partnership Interest to any Person, without the Consent of the General Partner but subject to the provisions of Section 11.4 hereof and to satisfaction of each of
the following conditions: 
 (1) Special Limited Partner Right of First Refusal. The
transferor Limited Partner (or the Partner’s estate in the event of the Partner’s death) shall give written notice of the proposed Transfer to the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner, which notice shall state (i) the
identity and address of the proposed transferee and (ii) the amount and type of consideration proposed to be received for the Transferred Partnership Interests. The Special Limited Partner shall have ten (10) Business Days upon which to
give the transferor Limited Partner notice of its election to acquire the Partnership Interests on the terms set forth in such notice. If it so elects, it shall purchase the Partnership Interests on such terms within ten (10) Business Days
after giving notice of such election; provided, however, that in the event that the proposed terms involve a purchase for cash, the Special Limited Partner may at its election deliver in lieu of all or any portion of such cash a note
from the Special Limited Partner payable to the transferor Limited Partner at a date as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than one hundred eighty (180) days after such purchase, and bearing interest at an annual rate equal
to the total dividends declared with respect to one (1) REIT Share for the four (4) preceding fiscal quarters of the Special Limited Partner, divided by the Value of one REIT Share as of the closing of such purchase; and
provided, further, that such closing may be deferred to the extent necessary to effect compliance with the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act, if applicable, and any other applicable requirements of law. If it does not so elect, the transferor Limited
Partner may Transfer such Partnership Interests to a third party, on terms no more favorable to the transferee than the proposed terms, subject to the other conditions of this Section 11.3. 

(2) Qualified Transferee. Any Transfer of a Partnership Interest shall be made only to a single Qualified
Transferee; provided, however, that, for such purposes, all Qualified Transferees that are Affiliates, or that comprise investment accounts or funds managed by a single Qualified Transferee and its Affiliates, shall be considered
together to be a single Qualified Transferee; and provided, further, that each Transfer meeting the minimum Transfer restriction of Section 11.3.A(4) hereof may be to a separate Qualified Transferee. 

(3) Opinion of Counsel. The transferor Limited Partner shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the General
Partner an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to it to the effect that the proposed Transfer may be effected without registration under the Securities Act and will not otherwise violate the registration provisions of the Securities Act and
the regulations promulgated thereunder or violate any state securities laws or regulations applicable to the Partnership or the Partnership Interests Transferred; provided, however, that the General Partner may, in its sole and
absolute discretion, waive this condition upon the request of the transferor Limited Partner. If, in the opinion of such counsel, such Transfer would require the filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act or would otherwise violate
any federal or state securities laws or regulations applicable to the Partnership or the Transferred Partnership Interests, the General Partner may prohibit any Transfer otherwise permitted under this Section 11.3 by a Limited Partner of
Partnership Interests. 
 (4) Minimum Transfer Restriction. Any Transferring Partner must
Transfer not less than the lesser of (i) five hundred (500) Partnership Units or (ii) all of the remaining Partnership Units owned by such Transferring Partner, without, in each case, the Consent of the General Partner;
provided, however, that, for purposes of determining compliance with the foregoing restriction, all Partnership Units owned by Affiliates of a Limited Partner shall be considered to be owned by such Limited Partner. 

(5) Exception for Permitted Transfers. The conditions of Sections 11.3.A(1) through 11.3.A(4)
hereof shall not apply in the case of a Permitted Transfer. 

  
 53 

 It is a condition to any Transfer permitted hereunder (whether or not such Transfer is
effected during or after the applicable Restricted Period) that the transferee assumes by operation of law or express agreement all of the obligations of the transferor Limited Partner under this Agreement with respect to such Transferred
Partnership Interest, and no such Transfer (other than pursuant to a statutory merger or consolidation wherein all obligations and liabilities of the transferor Partner are assumed by a successor corporation by operation of law) shall relieve the
transferor Partner of its obligations under this Agreement without the Consent of the General Partner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transferee of any Transferred Partnership Interest shall be subject to any restrictions on ownership and
transfer of stock of the Special Limited Partner and/or Parent contained in the Special Limited Partner Charter or the Parent Charter, as the case may be, that may limit or restrict such transferee’s ability to exercise its Redemption rights,
including, without limitation, the Parent Share Ownership Limit. Any transferee, whether or not admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner, shall take subject to the obligations of the transferor hereunder. Unless admitted as a Substituted Limited
Partner, no transferee, whether by a voluntary Transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, shall have any rights hereunder, other than the rights of an Assignee as provided in Section 11.5 hereof. 

B. Incapacity. If a Limited Partner is subject to Incapacity, the executor, administrator, trustee, committee, guardian,
conservator or receiver of such Limited Partner’s estate shall have all the rights of a Limited Partner, but not more rights than those enjoyed by other Limited Partners, for the purpose of settling or managing the estate, and such power as the
Incapacitated Limited Partner possessed to Transfer all or any part of its interest in the Partnership. The Incapacity of a Limited Partner, in and of itself, shall not dissolve or terminate the Partnership. 

C. Adverse Tax Consequences. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the General Partner shall have the
authority (but shall not be required) to take any steps it determines are necessary or appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion to prevent the Partnership from being taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. In furtherance of
the foregoing, except with the Consent of the General Partner, no Transfer by a Limited Partner of its Partnership Interests (including any Redemption, any other acquisition of Partnership Units by the Special Limited Partner or the General Partner
or any acquisition of Partnership Units by the Partnership) may be made to or by any Person if such Transfer could (i) result in the Partnership being treated as an association taxable as a corporation; (ii) result in a termination of the
Partnership under Code Section 708; (iii) be treated as effectuated through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Code Section 7704
and the Regulations promulgated thereunder, (iv) result in the Partnership being unable to qualify for one or more of the “safe harbors” set forth in Regulations Section 1.7704-1 (or such other guidance subsequently published by
the IRS setting forth safe harbors under which interests will not be treated as “readily tradable on a secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code) (the “Safe
Harbors”) or (v) in the General Partner’s judgment in its sole and absolute discretion, adversely affect the ability of the Special Limited Partner to continue to qualify as a REIT or subject the Special Limited Partner to any
additional taxes under Code Section 857 or Code Section 4981. 
 Section 11.4 Admission of Substituted Limited
Partners. 
 A. No Limited Partner shall have the right to substitute a transferee (including any transferees pursuant
to Transfers permitted by Section 11.3 hereof) as a Limited Partner in its place. A transferee of a Limited Partner Interest may be admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner only with the Consent of the General Partner, which may be given or
withheld in its sole and absolute discretion. The 

  
 54 

 
failure or refusal by the General Partner to permit a transferee of any such interests to become a Substituted Limited Partner shall not give rise to any cause of action against the Partnership
or the General Partner. Subject to the foregoing, an Assignee shall not be admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner until and unless it furnishes to the General Partner (i) evidence of acceptance, in form and substance satisfactory to the
General Partner, of all the terms, conditions and applicable obligations of this Agreement, (ii) a counterpart signature page to this Agreement executed by such Assignee and (iii) such other documents and instruments as may be required or
advisable, in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner, to effect such Assignee’s admission as a Substituted Limited Partner. 
 B. Concurrently with, and as evidence of, the admission of a Substituted Limited Partner, the General Partner shall update the books and records of the Partnership to reflect the name, address and number
and class and/or series of Partnership Units of such Substituted Limited Partner and to eliminate or adjust, if necessary, the name, address and number of Partnership Units of the predecessor of such Substituted Limited Partner. 

C. A transferee who has been admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner in accordance with this Article 11 shall have all the rights
and powers and be subject to all the restrictions and liabilities of a Limited Partner under this Agreement. 
 Section 11.5
Assignees. 
 If the General Partner does not Consent to the admission of any permitted transferee under Section 11.3
hereof as a Substituted Limited Partner, as described in Section 11.4 hereof, or in the event that any Partnership Interest is deemed to have been Transferred notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in this Article 11, such transferee shall
be considered an Assignee for purposes of this Agreement. An Assignee shall be entitled to all the rights of an assignee of a limited partnership interest under the Act, including the right to receive distributions from the Partnership and the share
of Net Income, Net Losses and other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the Partnership attributable to the Partnership Interest assigned to such transferee and the rights to Transfer the Partnership Interest provided in this
Article 11, but shall not be deemed to be a holder of a Partnership Interest for any other purpose under this Agreement (other than as expressly provided in Section 15.1 hereof with respect to a Qualifying Party that becomes a Tendering
Party), and shall not be entitled to effect a Consent or vote with respect to such Partnership Interest on any matter presented to the Partners for approval (such right to Consent or vote, to the extent provided in this Agreement or under the Act,
fully remaining with the transferor Limited Partner). In the event that any such transferee desires to make a further Transfer of any such Partnership Interest, such transferee shall be subject to all the provisions of this Article 11 to the
same extent and in the same manner as any Limited Partner desiring to make a Transfer of a Limited Partner Interest. 
 Section 11.6
General Provisions. 
 A. No Limited Partner may withdraw from the Partnership other than as a result of:
(i) a permitted Transfer of all of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Units in accordance with this Article 11 with respect to which the transferee becomes a Substituted Limited Partner; (ii) pursuant to a redemption (or
acquisition by the Special Limited Partner) of all of its Partnership Units pursuant to a Redemption under Section 15.1 hereof and/or pursuant to any Partnership Unit Designation or (iii) the acquisition by the General Partner or the
Special Limited Partner of all of such Limited Partner’s Partnership Interest, whether or not pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof. 

  
 55 

 B. Any Limited Partner who shall Transfer all of its Partnership Units in a Transfer
(i) permitted pursuant to this Article 11 where such transferee was admitted as a Substituted Limited Partner, (ii) pursuant to the exercise of its rights to effect a redemption of all of its Partnership Units pursuant to a Redemption
under Section 15.1 hereof and/or pursuant to any Partnership Unit Designation or (iii) to the Special Limited Partner, whether or not pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof, shall cease to be a Limited Partner. 

C. If any Partnership Unit is Transferred in compliance with the provisions of this Article 11, or is redeemed by the Partnership,
or acquired by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof, on any day other than the first day of a Partnership Year, then Net Income, Net Losses, each item thereof and all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and
credit attributable to such Partnership Unit for such Partnership Year shall be allocated to the transferor Partner or the Tendering Party (as the case may be) and, in the case of a Transfer other than a Redemption, to the transferee Partner, by
taking into account their varying interests during the Partnership Year in accordance with Code Section 706(d), using the “interim closing of the books” method or another permissible method selected by the General Partner in its sole
and absolute discretion. Solely for purposes of making such allocations, unless the General Partner decides in its sole and absolute discretion to use another method permitted under the Code, each of such items for the calendar month in which a
Transfer occurs shall be allocated to the transferee Partner and none of such items for the calendar month in which a Transfer or a Redemption occurs shall be allocated to the transferor Partner, or the Tendering Party (as the case may be) if such
Transfer occurs on or before the fifteenth (15th) day of the month, otherwise such items shall be allocated to the transferor. All distributions of funds attributable to such Partnership Unit with respect to which the Partnership Record Date is
before the date of such Transfer, assignment or Redemption shall be made to the transferor Partner or the Tendering Party (as the case may be) and, in the case of a Transfer other than a Redemption, all distributions of funds thereafter attributable
to such Partnership Unit shall be made to the transferee Partner. 
 D. In addition to any other restrictions on Transfer herein
contained, in no event may any Transfer of a Partnership Interest by any Partner (including any Redemption, any acquisition of Partnership Units by the Special Limited Partner or any other acquisition of Partnership Units by the Partnership) be
made: (i) to any person or entity who lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own a Partnership Interest; (ii) in violation of applicable law; (iii) except with the Consent of the General Partner, which may be given or withheld in
its sole and absolute discretion, of any component portion of a Partnership Interest, such as the Capital Account, or rights to distributions, separate and apart from all other components of a Partnership Interest; (iv) in the event that such
Transfer could cause any of Parent, the Special Limited Partner, any Parent Affiliate or any Special Limited Partner Affiliate to cease to comply with the REIT Requirements or to cease to qualify as a “qualified REIT subsidiary” (within
the meaning of Code Section 856(i)(2)); (v) except with the Consent of the General Partner, which may be given or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion, if such Transfer could, based on the advice of counsel to the Partnership or
the General Partner, cause a termination of the Partnership for federal or state income tax purposes (except as a result of the Redemption (or acquisition by the Special Limited Partner) of all Partnership Common Units held by all Limited Partners
(other than the Special Limited Partner)); (vi) if such Transfer could, based on the advice of legal counsel to the Partnership or the General Partner, cause the Partnership to cease to be classified as a partnership for federal income tax
purposes (except as a result of the Redemption (or acquisition by the Special Limited Partner) of all Partnership Common Units held by all Limited Partners (other than the Special Limited Partner)); (vii) if such Transfer would cause the
Partnership to become, with respect to any employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, a “party-in-interest” (as defined in ERISA Section 3(14)) or a “disqualified person” (as defined in Code Section 4975(c));
(viii) if such Transfer could, based on the advice of legal counsel to the Partnership or the General Partner, cause any portion of the assets of the Partnership to constitute assets of any employee benefit plan pursuant to Department of Labor
Regulations Section 2510.3-101; (ix) if such Transfer requires the registration of such Partnership Interest pursuant to any applicable federal or state securities laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act or the Securities

  
 56 

 
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) or other non-U.S. securities laws (including Canadian provincial or territorial securities laws) or would constitute a non-exempt distribution pursuant to
applicable provincial or state securities laws; (x) except with the Consent of the General Partner, if such Transfer could (1) be treated as effectuated through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market”
(or the substantial equivalent thereof) within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code and the Regulations promulgated thereunder, (2) cause the Partnership to become a “publicly traded partnership,” as such term is defined in
Sections 469(k)(2) or 7704(b) of the Code, (3) could be in violation of Section 3.4.C(iii), or (4) could cause the Partnership to fail one or more of the Safe Harbors; (xi) if such Transfer causes the Partnership (as opposed to
the Special Limited Partner) to become a reporting company under the Exchange Act; (xii) if such Transfer subjects the Partnership to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Investment Advisors Act of 1940 or ERISA, each as
amended. The General Partner shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, be permitted to take all action necessary to prevent the Partnership from being classified as a “publicly traded partnership” under Code Section 7704.

 E. Transfers pursuant to this Article 11 may only be made on the first day of a fiscal quarter of the Partnership,
unless the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, otherwise Consents. 
 ARTICLE 12 

ADMISSION OF PARTNERS 

Section 12.1 Admission of Successor General Partner. 
 A successor to all of the General Partner’s General Partner Interest pursuant to a Transfer permitted by Section 11.2 hereof who is proposed to be admitted as a successor General Partner shall
be admitted to the Partnership as the General Partner, effective immediately upon such Transfer. Upon any such Transfer and the admission of any such transferee as a successor General Partner in accordance with this Section 12.1, the transferor
General Partner shall be relieved of its obligations under this Agreement and shall cease to be a general partner of the Partnership without any separate Consent of the Limited Partners or the consent or approval of any other Partners. Any such
successor General Partner shall carry on the business and affairs of the Partnership without dissolution. In each case, the admission shall be subject to the successor General Partner executing and delivering to the Partnership an acceptance of all
of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and such other documents or instruments as may be required to effect the admission of such Person as a General Partner. Upon any such Transfer, the transferee shall become the successor General Partner
for all purposes herein, and shall be vested with the powers and rights of the transferor General Partner, and shall be liable for all obligations and responsible for all duties of the General Partner. Concurrently with, and as evidence of, the
admission of a successor General Partner, the General Partner shall update the books and records of the Partnership to reflect the name, address and number and classes and/or series of Partnership Units of such successor General Partner. 

Section 12.2 Admission of Additional Limited Partners. 
 A. A Person (other than an existing Partner) who makes a Capital Contribution to the Partnership in exchange for Partnership Interests and in accordance with this Agreement shall be admitted to the
Partnership as an Additional Limited Partner only upon furnishing to the General Partner (i) evidence of acceptance, in form and substance satisfactory to the General Partner, of all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including,
without limitation, the power of attorney granted in Section 2.4 hereof, (ii) a counterpart signature page to this Agreement executed by such Person and (iii) such other documents or instruments as may be required in the sole and
absolute discretion of the General Partner in order to effect such Person’s admission as an Additional Limited Partner. Concurrently with, and as evidence of, the admission of an Additional Limited Partner, the General Partner shall update the
books and records of the Partnership to reflect the name, address and number and classes and/or series of Partnership Interests of such Additional Limited Partner. 

  
 57 

 B. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 12.2, no Person shall be
admitted as an Additional Limited Partner without the Consent of the General Partner, which may be given or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion. The admission of any Person as an Additional Limited Partner shall become effective on the date
upon which the name of such Person is recorded on the books and records of the Partnership, following the Consent of the General Partner to such admission and the satisfaction of all the conditions set forth in Section 12.2.A. 

C. If any Additional Limited Partner is admitted to the Partnership on any day other than the first day of a Partnership Year, then Net
Income, Net Losses, each item thereof and all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit allocable among Holders for such Partnership Year shall be allocated among such Additional Limited Partner and all other Holders by taking into
account their varying interests during the Partnership Year in accordance with Code Section 706(d), using the “interim closing of the books” method or another permissible method selected by the General Partner, in its sole and
absolute discretion. Solely for purposes of making such allocations, each of such items for the calendar month in which an admission of any Additional Limited Partner occurs shall be allocated among all the Holders including such Additional Limited
Partner, in accordance with the principles described in Section 11.6.C hereof. All distributions of funds with respect to which the Partnership Record Date is before the date of such admission shall be made solely to Partners and Assignees
other than the Additional Limited Partner, and all distributions of funds thereafter shall be made to all the Partners and Assignees including such Additional Limited Partner. 
 D. Any Additional Limited Partner admitted to the Partnership that is an Affiliate of the Special Limited Partner shall be deemed to be a “Special Limited Partner Affiliate” hereunder and shall
be reflected as such on the books and records of the Partnership. 
 E. Any Additional Limited Partner admitted to the
Partnership that is an Affiliate of Parent shall be deemed to be a “Parent Affiliate” hereunder and shall be reflected as such on the books and records of the Partnership. 
 Section 12.3 Amendment of Agreement and Certificate of Limited Partnership. 
 For the admission to the Partnership of any Partner, the General Partner shall take all steps necessary and appropriate under the Act to update the records of the Partnership and, if necessary, to prepare
as soon as practical an amendment of this Agreement (and to update the books and records of the Partnership) and, if required by law, shall prepare and file an amendment to the Certificate and may for this purpose exercise the power of attorney
granted pursuant to Section 2.4 hereof. 
 Section 12.4 Limit on Number of Partners. 

Unless otherwise permitted by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion, no Person shall be admitted to the Partnership as
an Additional Limited Partner if the effect of such admission would be to cause the Partnership to have a number of Partners that would cause the Partnership to become a reporting company under the Exchange Act. 

Section 12.5 Admission. 
 A Person shall be admitted to the Partnership as a limited partner of the Partnership or a general partner of the Partnership only upon strict compliance, and not upon substantial compliance, with the
requirements set forth in this Agreement for admission to the Partnership as a Limited Partner or a General Partner. 

  
 58 

 ARTICLE 13 
 DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION 
 Section 13.1 Dissolution.

 The Partnership shall not be dissolved by the admission of Substituted Limited Partners or Additional Limited Partners or by
the admission of a successor General Partner in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon the withdrawal of the General Partner, any successor General Partner is hereby authorized to and shall, continue the business and affairs of the
Partnership without dissolution. However, the Partnership shall dissolve, and its affairs shall be wound up, upon the first to occur of any of the following (each a “Liquidating Event”): 

A. an event of withdrawal, as defined in Section 17-402 of the Act (including, without limitation, bankruptcy), or the withdrawal in
violation of this Agreement, of the last remaining General Partner unless, within ninety (90) days after the withdrawal, a Majority in Interest of the Partners remaining agree in writing, in their sole and absolute discretion, to continue the
business of the Partnership and to the appointment, effective as of the date of such withdrawal, of a successor General Partner; 
 B. an election to dissolve the Partnership made by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion, with or without the Consent of the Limited Partners; 

C. entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Partnership pursuant to the provisions of the Act; and 

D. at any time that there are no limited partners of the Partnership unless the business of the Partnership is continued in accordance
with the Act. 
 Section 13.2 Winding Up. 
 A. Upon the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, the Partnership shall continue solely for the purposes of winding up its affairs in an orderly manner, liquidating its assets and satisfying the
claims of its creditors and the Holders. After the occurrence of a Liquidating Event, no Holder shall take any action that is inconsistent with, or not necessary to or appropriate for, the winding up of the Partnership’s business and affairs.
The General Partner (or, in the event that there is no remaining General Partner or the General Partner has dissolved, become bankrupt within the meaning of the Act or ceased to operate, any Person elected by a Majority in Interest of the Partners
(the General Partner or such other Person being referred to herein as the “Liquidator”)) shall be responsible for overseeing the winding up and termination of the Partnership and shall take full account of the Partnership’s
liabilities and property, and the Partnership property shall be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof, and the proceeds therefrom (which may, to the extent determined by the General Partner, include shares of
stock in the Special Limited Partner) shall be applied and distributed in the following order: 
 (1)
First, to the satisfaction of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to creditors other than the Holders (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof); 

  
 59 

 (2) Second, to the satisfaction of all of the Partnership’s debts and
liabilities to the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof), including, but not limited to, amounts due as reimbursements under Section 7.4 hereof;

 (3) Third, to the satisfaction of all of the Partnership’s debts and liabilities to the other Holders
(whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof); and 
 (4) Fourth, to the
Partners in accordance with their positive Capital Account balances, determined after taking into account all Capital Account adjustments for all prior periods and the Partnership taxable year during which the liquidation occurs (other than those
made as a result of the liquidating distribution set forth in this Section 13.2.A(4)); provided, that if distributions pursuant to this clause (4) would result in the Partners receiving cumulative distributions from the Partnership that
differ from the distributions that would be required under Article 5, then the proceeds from liquidation shall be made in the manner prescribed in Article 5. 
 The General Partner shall not receive any additional compensation for any services performed pursuant to this Article 13 other than reimbursement of its expenses as set forth in Section 7.4.

 B. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.2.A hereof that require liquidation of the assets of the Partnership,
but subject to the order of priorities set forth therein, if prior to the termination of the Partnership, the Liquidator determines that an immediate sale of part or all of the Partnership’s assets would be impractical or would cause undue loss
to the Holders, the Liquidator may, in its sole and absolute discretion, defer for a reasonable time the liquidation of any assets except those necessary to satisfy liabilities of the Partnership (including to those Holders as creditors) and/or
distribute to the Holders, in lieu of cash, as tenants in common and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.2.A hereof, undivided interests in such Partnership assets as the Liquidator deems not suitable for liquidation. Any such
distributions in kind shall be made only if, in the subjective good faith judgment of the Liquidator, such distributions in kind are in the best interest of the Holders, and shall be subject to such conditions relating to the disposition and
management of such properties as the Liquidator deems reasonable and equitable and to any agreements governing the operation of such properties at such time. The Liquidator shall determine the fair market value of any property distributed in kind
using such reasonable method of valuation as it may adopt. 
 C. If any Holder has a deficit balance in its Capital Account
(after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all taxable years, including the year during which such liquidation occurs), except as otherwise agreed to by such Holder, such Holder shall have no obligation to make any
contribution to the capital of the Partnership with respect to such deficit, and such deficit shall not be considered a debt owed to the Partnership or to any other Person for any purpose whatsoever. 

D. In the sole and absolute discretion of the Liquidator, a pro rata portion of the distributions that would otherwise be applied and
distributed in the order of priority set forth in Section 13.2A may be: 
 (1) distributed to a trust
established for the Partnership for the purpose of liquidating Partnership assets, collecting amounts owed to the Partnership, and paying any contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities or obligations of the Partnership or of the General
Partner arising out of or in connection with the Partnership and/or Partnership activities. The assets of any such trust shall be applied and distributed, from time to time, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Liquidator, in the same
proportions and amounts as would otherwise have been applied and distributed as set forth in Section 13.2A; or 

  
 60 

 (2) withheld or escrowed to provide a reasonable reserve for Partnership
liabilities (contingent, conditional or unmatured) and to reflect the unrealized portion of any installment obligations owed to the Partnership, provided that such withheld or escrowed amounts shall be applied and distributed in the manner and order
of priority set forth in Section 13.2.A hereof as soon as practicable. 
 Section 13.3 Deemed Contribution and
Distribution. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 13, in the event that the Partnership is
liquidated within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), but no Liquidating Event has occurred, the Partnership’s Property shall not be liquidated, the Partnership’s liabilities shall not be paid or discharged and
the Partnership’s affairs shall not be wound up. Instead, for federal income tax purposes the Partnership shall be deemed to have contributed all of its assets and liabilities to a new partnership in exchange for an interest in the new
partnership; and immediately thereafter, distributed Partnership Units to the Partners in the new partnership in accordance with their respective Capital Accounts in liquidation of the Partnership, and the new partnership is deemed to continue the
business of the Partnership. Nothing in this Section 13.3 shall be deemed to have constituted a Transfer to an Assignee as a Substituted Limited Partner without compliance with the provisions of Section 11.4 or Section 13.3 hereof.

 Section 13.4 Rights of Holders. 
 Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and subject to the rights of any Holder of any Partnership Interest set forth in a Partnership Unit Designation, (a) each Holder shall look solely to
the assets of the Partnership for the return of its Capital Contribution, (b) no Holder shall have the right or power to demand or receive property other than cash from the Partnership and (c) no Holder shall have priority over any other
Holder as to the return of its Capital Contributions, distributions or allocations. 
 Section 13.5 Notice of Dissolution.

 In the event that a Liquidating Event occurs, the General Partner shall, within thirty (30) days thereafter, provide
written notice thereof to each Holder and, in the General Partner’s sole and absolute discretion or as required by the Act, to all other parties with whom the Partnership regularly conducts business (as determined in the sole and absolute
discretion of the General Partner), and the General Partner may publish notice thereof in a newspaper of general circulation in each place in which the Partnership regularly conducts business (as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the
General Partner). 
 Section 13.6 Cancellation of Certificate of Limited Partnership. 

Upon the completion of the winding up of the Partnership, the Certificate shall be canceled in the manner required by the Act. 

Section 13.7 Reasonable Time for Winding-Up. 
 A reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly winding-up of the business and affairs of the Partnership and the liquidation of its assets pursuant to Section 13.2 hereof, in order to minimize
any losses otherwise attendant upon such winding-up, and the provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect between and among the Partners during the period of winding up; provided, however, reasonable efforts shall be made to complete such
winding-up within twenty-four (24) months after the adoption of a plan of liquidation of the General Partner, as provided in Section 562(b)(1)(B) of the Code, if necessary, in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner.

 A.
Meetings of the Partners may be called only by the General Partner to transact any business that the General Partner determines. The call shall state the nature of the business to be transacted. Notice of any such meeting shall be given to all
Partners entitled to act at the meeting not less than seven (7) days nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the date of such meeting. Partners may vote in person or by proxy at such meeting. Unless approval by a different number or
proportion of the Partners is required by this Agreement, the Consent of the General Partner and the Consent of the Limited Partners shall be required to approve such proposal at a meeting of the Partners. Whenever the Consent of Partners is
permitted or required under this Agreement, such Consent may be given at a meeting of Partners or in accordance with the procedure prescribed in Section 14.3.B hereof. 
 B. Any action requiring the Consent of any Partner or group of Partners pursuant to this Agreement or that is required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Partners may be taken without a
meeting if a Consent in writing or by electronic transmission (as defined in Section 17-405(d) of the Act) setting forth the action so taken or consented to is given by Partners whose Consent would be sufficient to approve such action at a
meeting of the Partners. Such Consent may be in one instrument or in several instruments, and shall have the same force and effect as the affirmative vote of such Partners at a meeting of the Partners. Such Consent shall be filed with the General
Partner. An action so taken shall be deemed to have been taken at a meeting held on the effective date so certified. For purposes of obtaining a Consent in writing or by electronic transmission, the General Partner may require a response within a
reasonable specified time, but not less than fifteen (15) days, and failure to respond in such time period shall constitute a Consent that is consistent with the General Partner’s recommendation with respect to the proposal;
provided, however, that an action shall become effective at such time as requisite Consents are received even if prior to such specified time. 

  
 62 

 C. Each Partner entitled to act at a meeting of the Partners may authorize any Person or
Persons to act for it by proxy on all matters in which a Partner is entitled to participate, including waiving notice of any meeting, or voting or participating at a meeting. Each proxy must be signed by the Partner or its attorney-in-fact. No proxy
shall be valid after the expiration of eleven (11) months from the date thereof unless otherwise provided in the proxy (or there is receipt of a proxy authorizing a later date). Every proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of the Partner
executing it, such revocation to be effective upon the Partnership’s receipt of written notice of such revocation from the Partner executing such proxy, unless such proxy states that it is irrevocable and is coupled with an interest.

 D. The General Partner may set, in advance, a record date for the purpose of determining the Partners (i) entitled to
Consent to any action, (ii) entitled to receive notice of any meeting of the Partners or (iii) in order to make a determination of Partners for any other proper purpose. Such date, in any case, shall not be prior to the close of business
on the day the record date is fixed and shall be not more than ninety (90) days and, in the case of a meeting of the Partners, not less than five (5) days, before the date on which the meeting is to be held. If no record date is fixed, the
record date for the determination of Partners entitled to notice of a meeting of the Partners shall be at the close of business on the day on which the notice of the meeting is sent, and the record date for any other determination of Partners shall
be the effective date of such Partner action, distribution or other event. When a determination of the Partners entitled to Consent at any meeting of the Partners has been made as provided in this section, such determination shall apply to any
adjournment thereof. 
 E. Each meeting of Partners shall be conducted by the General Partner or such other Person as the
General Partner may appoint pursuant to such rules for the conduct of the meeting as the General Partner or such other Person deems appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion. Without limitation, meetings of Partners may be conducted in the
same manner as meetings of the Special Limited Partner’s stockholders and may be held at the same time as, and as part of, the meetings of the Special Limited Partner’s stockholders. 

ARTICLE 15 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 

Section 15.1 Redemption Rights of Qualifying Parties. 
 A. Subject to any applicable Restricted Period, a Qualifying Party shall have the right (subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein) to require the Partnership to redeem all or a portion
of the Partnership Common Units held by such Tendering Party (Partnership Common Units that have in fact been tendered for redemption being hereafter referred to as “Tendered Units”) in exchange (a “Redemption”) for
the Cash Amount payable on the Specified Redemption Date. The Partnership may, in the General Partner’s sole and absolute discretion, redeem Tendered Units at the request of the Holder thereof prior to the end of the applicable Restricted
Period (subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein) (a “Special Redemption”); provided, however, that the General Partner first receives a legal opinion to the same effect as the legal opinion described in
Section 15.1.G(4) of this Agreement. Any Redemption shall be exercised pursuant to a Notice of Redemption delivered to the General Partner and the Special Limited Partner by the Qualifying Party when exercising the Redemption right (the
“Tendering Party”). The Partnership’s obligation to effect a Redemption, however, shall not arise or be binding against the Partnership until the earlier of (i) the date the General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership,
notifies the Tendering Party that the Partnership has declined to elect to require the Special Limited Partner to acquire some or all of the Tendered Units under Section 15.1.B hereof following 

  
 63 

 
receipt of a Notice of Redemption and (ii) the Business Day following the Cut-Off Date. In the event of a Redemption, the Cash Amount shall be delivered as a certified or bank check
payable to the Tendering Party or, in the General Partner’s sole and absolute discretion, in immediately available funds, in each case, on or before the tenth (10th) Business Day following the date on which the General Partner receives a
Notice of Redemption from the Tendering Party. 
 B. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 15.1.A hereof,
on or before the close of business on the Cut-Off Date, the Partnership may, in the General Partner’s sole and absolute discretion, elect to require the Special Limited Partner to acquire some or all (such percentage being referred to as the
“Applicable Percentage”) of the Tendered Units from the Tendering Party in exchange for Parent Shares. If the Partnership elects to require the Special Limited Partner to acquire some or all of the Tendered Units pursuant to this
Section 15.1.B, the Partnership shall give written notice thereof to the Tendering Party on or before the close of business on the Cut-Off Date. If the Partnership elects to require the Special Limited Partner to acquire any of the Tendered
Units for Parent Shares, the Special Limited Partner shall deliver such Parent Shares to the Tendering Party pursuant to the terms of this Section 15.1.B, in which case (1) the Special Limited Partner shall assume directly the obligation
with respect thereto and shall satisfy the Tendering Party’s exercise of its Redemption right with respect to such Tendered Units and (2) such transaction shall be treated, for federal income tax purposes, as a transfer by the Tendering
Party of such Tendered Units to the Special Limited Partner in exchange for the Parent Shares Amount. If the Partnership so elects, on the Specified Redemption Date, the Tendering Party shall sell such number of the Tendered Units to the Special
Limited Partner in exchange for a number of Parent Shares equal to the product of the Parent Shares Amount and the Applicable Percentage. The Tendering Party shall submit (i) such information, certification or affidavit as the Special Limited
Partner may reasonably require in connection with the application of the Parent Share Ownership Limit to any such acquisition and (ii) such written representations, investment letters, legal opinions or other instruments necessary, in the
Special Limited Partner’s view, to effect compliance with the Securities Act. In the event of an election by the Partnership to require the Special Limited Partner to purchase the Tendered Units pursuant to this Section 15.1.B, the
Tendering Party shall no longer have the right to cause the Partnership to effect a Redemption of such Tendered Units and, upon notice to the Tendering Party by the Partnership given on or before the close of business on the Cut-Off Date that the
Partnership has elected to require the Special Limited Partner to acquire some or all of the Tendered Units pursuant to this Section 15.1.B, the obligation of the Partnership to effect a Redemption of the Tendered Units as to which the General
Partner’s notice relates shall not accrue or arise. A number of Parent Shares equal to the product of the Applicable Percentage and the Parent Shares Amount, if applicable, shall be delivered by the Special Limited Partner as duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Parent Shares and, if applicable, Rights, free of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or restriction, other than the Parent Share Ownership Limit, the Securities Act and relevant state securities or “blue
sky” laws. Neither any Tendering Party whose Tendered Units are acquired by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to this Section 15.1.B, any Partner, any Assignee nor any other interested Person shall have any right to require or cause
Parent or the Special Limited Partner to register, qualify or list any Parent Shares owned or held by such Person, whether or not such Parent Shares are issued pursuant to this Section 15.1.B, with the SEC, with any state securities
commissioner, department or agency, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or with any stock exchange; provided, however, that this limitation shall not be in derogation of any registration or similar rights granted pursuant to
any other written agreement between Parent or the Special Limited Partner and any such Person. Notwithstanding any delay in such delivery, the Tendering Party shall be deemed the owner of such Parent Shares and Rights for all purposes, including,
without limitation, rights to vote or consent, receive dividends, and exercise rights, as of the Specified Redemption Date. Parent Shares delivered upon an acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to this
Section 15.1.B may contain such legends regarding restrictions under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws as the Special Limited Partner in good faith determines to be necessary or advisable in order to ensure compliance with
such laws. 

  
 64 

 C. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 15.1.A and 15.1.B hereof, the
Tendering Parties shall have no rights under this Agreement that would otherwise be prohibited by the Special Limited Partner Charter or the Parent Charter and shall have no rights to require the Partnership to redeem Tendered Units or require the
Special Limited Partner to acquire Tendered Units if such a redemption or the acquisition of such Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof would cause any Person to violate the REIT Share Ownership Limit
or the Parent Share Ownership Limit. To the extent that any attempted Redemption or acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof would be in violation of this Section 15.1.C, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, it shall be null and void ab initio, and the Tendering Party shall not acquire any rights or economic interests in Parent Shares otherwise deliverable by the Special Limited Partner under Section 15.1.B
hereof or cash otherwise payable under Section 15.1.A hereof. 
 D. If the Partnership does not elect to require the
Special Limited Partner to acquire the Tendered Units pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof: 
 (1) The
Partnership may, in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner, elect to raise funds for the payment of the Cash Amount either (a) by requiring that the Special Limited Partner contribute to the Partnership funds from the proceeds
of a sale by the Special Limited Partner of REIT Shares sufficient to purchase the Tendered Units or (b) from any other sources (including, but not limited to, the sale of any Property and the incurrence of additional Debt) available to the
Partnership. The Special Limited Partner shall make a Capital Contribution of any such amounts to the Partnership in exchange for additional Partnership Units, and the Partnership is hereby authorized from time to time to issue such additional
Partnership Units in consideration therefor without any further act, approval or vote of any Partner or other Persons. Any such contribution shall entitle the Special Limited Partner to an equitable Percentage Interest adjustment. 

(2) If the Cash Amount is not paid on or before the Specified Redemption Date, interest shall accrue with respect to the
Cash Amount from the day after the Specified Redemption Date to and including the date on which the Cash Amount is paid at a rate equal to the base rate on corporate loans at large United States money center commercial banks, as published from time
to time in the Wall Street Journal (but not higher than the maximum lawful rate). 
 E. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 15.1.B hereof, the Special Limited Partner shall not acquire any Tendered Units in exchange for Parent Shares if such exchange would be prohibited under the Special Limited Partner Charter or the Parent Charter or result in any
violation of the REIT Share Ownership Limit or the Parent Share Ownership Limit. 
 F. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary (but subject to Section 15.1.C hereof), with respect to any Redemption (or any tender of Partnership Common Units for Redemption if the Tendered Units are acquired by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof)
pursuant to this Section 15.1: 
 (1) All Partnership Common Units acquired by the Special Limited Partner
pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof shall automatically, and without further action required, be converted into and deemed to be a Special Limited Partner’s Partnership Interest comprised of the same number of Partnership Common Units.

  
 65 

 (2) Subject to the Parent Share Ownership Limit, no Tendering Party may
effect a Redemption for less than one thousand (1,000) Partnership Common Units or, if such Tendering Party holds (as a Limited Partner or, economically, as an Assignee) less than one thousand (1,000) Partnership Common Units, all of the
Partnership Common Units held by such Tendering Party, without, in each case, the Consent of the General Partner, which may be given or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion. 

(3) If (i) a Tendering Party surrenders its Tendered Units during the period after the Partnership Record Date with
respect to a distribution and before the record date established by Parent for a distribution to its stockholders of some or all of its portion of such Partnership distribution, and (ii) the Partnership elects to require the Special Limited
Partner to acquire any of such Tendered Units in exchange for Parent Shares pursuant to Section 15.1.B, such Tendering Party shall pay to the Special Limited Partner on the Specified Redemption Date an amount in cash equal to the portion of the
Partnership distribution in respect of the Tendered Units exchanged for Parent Shares, insofar as such distribution relates to the same period for which such Tendering Party would receive a distribution in respect of such Parent Shares. 

(4) The consummation of such Redemption (or an acquisition of Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to
Section 15.1.B hereof, as the case may be) shall be subject to the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period, if any, under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act. 

(5) The Tendering Party shall continue to own (subject, in the case of an Assignee, to the provisions of Section 11.5
hereof) all Partnership Common Units subject to any Redemption, and be treated as a Limited Partner or an Assignee, as applicable, with respect to such Partnership Common Units for all purposes of this Agreement, until such Partnership Common Units
are either paid for by the Partnership pursuant to Section 15.1.A hereof or transferred to the Special Limited Partner and paid for, by the delivery of the Parent Shares, pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof on the Specified Redemption Date.
Until a Specified Redemption Date and an acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof, the Tendering Party shall have no rights as a stockholder of Parent with respect to the Parent Shares
deliverable in connection with such acquisition. 
 G. In connection with an exercise of Redemption rights pursuant to this
Section 15.1, except as otherwise Consented to by the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, the Tendering Party shall submit the following to the General Partner, in addition to the Notice of Redemption: 

(1) A written affidavit, dated the same date as the Notice of Redemption, (a) disclosing the actual and constructive
ownership, as determined for purposes of Code Sections 856(a)(6) and 856(h), of Parent Shares by (i) such Tendering Party and (ii) to the best of their knowledge any Related Party and (b) representing that, after giving effect to
the Redemption or an acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof, neither the Tendering Party nor to the best of their knowledge any Related Party will own Parent Shares in violation of the
Parent Share Ownership Limit; 
 (2) A written representation that neither the Tendering Party nor to the best of
their knowledge any Related Party has any intention to acquire any additional Parent Shares prior to the closing of the Redemption or an acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof on the
Specified Redemption Date; 
 (3) An undertaking to certify, at and as a condition to the closing of (i) the
Redemption or (ii) the acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof on the Specified Redemption Date, that either (a) the actual and

  
 66 

 
constructive ownership of Parent Shares by the Tendering Party and to the best of their knowledge any Related Party remain unchanged from that disclosed in the affidavit required by
Section 15.1.G(1) or (b) after giving effect to the Redemption or an acquisition of the Tendered Units by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to Section 15.1.B hereof, neither the Tendering Party nor to the best of their knowledge
any Related Party shall own Parent Shares in violation of the Parent Share Ownership Limit; and 
 (4) In
connection with any Special Redemption, the Special Limited Partner shall have the right to receive an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to it to the effect that the proposed Special Redemption will not cause Parent, the Partnership, the
General Partner or the Special Limited Partner to violate any federal or state securities laws or regulations applicable to the Special Redemption, the issuance and sale of the Tendered Units to the Tendering Party or the issuance and sale of Parent
Shares to the Tendering Party pursuant to the Section 15.1.B of this Agreement. 
 Section 15.2 Addresses and Notice.

 Any notice, demand, request or report required or permitted to be given or made to a Partner or Assignee under this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given or made when delivered in person or when sent by first class United States mail or by other means of written or electronic communication (including by telecopy, facsimile, electronic mail or
commercial courier service) to the Partner, or Assignee at the address set forth in the books and records of the partnership or such other address of which the Partner shall notify the General Partner in accordance with this Section 15.2.

 Section 15.3 Titles and Captions. 
 All article or section titles or captions in this Agreement are for convenience only. They shall not be deemed part of this Agreement and in no way define, limit, extend or describe the scope or intent of
any provisions hereof. Except as specifically provided otherwise, references to “Articles” or “Sections” are to Articles and Sections of this Agreement. 
 Section 15.4 Pronouns and Plurals. 
 Whenever the context
may require, any pronouns used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa. 

Section 15.5 Further Action. 
 The parties shall execute and deliver all documents, provide all information and take or refrain from taking action as may be necessary or appropriate to achieve the purposes of this Agreement.

 Section 15.6 Binding Effect. 
 This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns. 

Section 15.7 Waiver. 

A. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement
or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute waiver of any such breach or any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition. 

  
 67 

 B. The restrictions, conditions and other limitations on the rights and benefits of
the Limited Partners contained in this Agreement, and the duties, covenants and other requirements of performance or notice by the Limited Partners, are for the benefit of the Partnership and, except for an obligation to pay money to the
Partnership, may be waived or relinquished by the General Partner, in its sole and absolute discretion, on behalf of the Partnership in one or more instances from time to time and at any time; provided, however, that any such waiver or
relinquishment may not be made if it would have the effect of (i) creating liability for any other Limited Partner, (ii) causing the Partnership to cease to qualify as a limited partnership, (iii) reducing the amount of cash otherwise
distributable to the Limited Partners (other than any such reduction that affects all of the Limited Partners holding the same class or series of Partnership Units on a uniform or pro rata basis, if approved by a Majority in Interest of the Limited
Partners holding such class or series of Partnership Units), (iv) resulting in the classification of the Partnership as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes or (v) violating
the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state “blue sky” or other securities laws; and provided, further, that any waiver relating to compliance with (x) the REIT Share Ownership Limit or other restrictions in the
Special Limited Partner Charter shall be made and shall be effective only as provided in the Special Limited Partner Charter or (y) the Parent Share Ownership Limit or other restrictions in the Parent Charter shall be made and shall be
effective only as provided in the Parent Charter. 
 Section 15.8 Counterparts. 

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which together shall constitute one agreement binding on all the parties hereto,
notwithstanding that all such parties are not signatories to the original or the same counterpart. Each party shall become bound by this Agreement immediately upon affixing its signature hereto. 

Section 15.9 Applicable Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. 

A. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to
the principles of conflicts of law. In the event of a conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any non-mandatory provision of the Act, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and take precedence. 

B. Each Partner hereby (i) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the State of
Delaware (collectively, the “Delaware Courts”), with respect to any dispute arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby to the extent such courts would have subject matter jurisdiction with respect to such
dispute, (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of any of the
Delaware Courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the action is brought in an inconvenient forum, or that the venue of the action is improper, (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, agrees that
notice or the service of process in any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be properly served or delivered if delivered to such Partner at such Partner’s last
known address as set forth in the Partnership’s books and records, and (iv) to the fullest extent permitted by law, irrevocably waives any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement
or the transactions contemplated hereby. 

  
 68 

 Section 15.10 Entire Agreement. 

This Agreement contains all of the understandings and agreements between and among the Partners with respect to the subject matter of this
Agreement and the rights, interests and obligations of the Partners with respect to the Partnership. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Partners hereby acknowledge and agree that the General Partner, on its own behalf
and/or on behalf of the Partnership, without the approval of any Limited Partner, may enter into side letters or similar written agreements with Limited Partners that are not Affiliates of the General Partner, executed contemporaneously with the
admission of such Limited Partner to the Partnership, which have the effect of establishing rights under, or altering or supplementing, the terms hereof, as negotiated with such Limited Partner and which the General Partner in its sole discretion
deems necessary, desirable or appropriate. The parties hereto agree that any terms, conditions or provisions contained in such side letters or similar written agreements with a Limited Partner shall govern with respect to such Limited Partner
notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, including Section 7.3 and 14.2. 
 Section 15.11 Invalidity of
Provisions. 
 If any provision of this Agreement is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not be affected thereby. 
 Section 15.12
Limitation to Preserve REIT Status. 
 Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, to the extent that
the amount to be paid, credited, distributed or reimbursed by the Partnership to any REIT Partner or its officers, directors, employees or agents, whether as a reimbursement, fee, expense or indemnity (a “REIT Payment”), would
constitute gross income to the REIT Partner for purposes of Code Section 856(c)(2) or Code Section 856(c)(3), then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the amount of such REIT Payments, as selected by the General Partner
in its sole and absolute discretion from among items of potential distribution, reimbursement, fees, expenses and indemnities, shall be reduced for any Partnership Year so that the REIT Payments, as so reduced, for or with respect to such REIT
Partner shall not exceed the lesser of: 
 (i) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) four and
nine-tenths percent (4.9%) of the REIT Partner’s total gross income (but excluding the amount of any REIT Payments and amounts excluded from gross income pursuant to Section 856(c)(5)(G) of the Code) for the Partnership Year that is
described in subsections (A) through (I) of Code Section 856(c)(2) over (b) the amount of gross income (within the meaning of Code Section 856(c)(2)) derived by the REIT Partner from sources other than those described in
subsections (A) through (I) of Code Section 856(c)(2) (but not including the amount of any REIT Payments and amounts excluded from gross income pursuant to Section 856(c)(5)(G) of the Code); or 

(ii) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) twenty-four percent (24%) of the REIT Partner’s total
gross income (but excluding the amount of any REIT Payments and amounts excluded from gross income pursuant to Section 856(c)(5)(G) of the Code) for the Partnership Year that is described in subsections (A) through (I) of Code
Section 856(c)(3) over (b) the amount of gross income (within the meaning of Code Section 856(c)(3)) derived by the REIT Partner from sources other than those described in subsections (A) through (I) of Code
Section 856(c)(3) (but not including the amount of any REIT Payments and amounts excluded from gross income pursuant to Section 856(c)(5)(G) of the Code); 

  
 69 

 provided, however, that REIT Payments in excess of the amounts set forth in clauses (i) and
(ii) above may be made if the General Partner, as a condition precedent, obtains an opinion of tax counsel that the receipt of such excess amounts should not adversely affect the REIT Partner’s ability to qualify as a REIT. To the extent
that REIT Payments may not be made in a Partnership Year as a consequence of the limitations set forth in this Section 15.12, such REIT Payments shall carry over and shall be treated as arising in the following Partnership Year if such carry
over does not adversely affect the REIT Partner’s ability to qualify as a REIT, provided, however, that any such REIT Payment shall not be carried over more than three Partnership Years, and any such remaining payments shall no longer be due
and payable. The purpose of the limitations contained in this Section 15.12 is to prevent any REIT Partner from failing to qualify as a REIT under the Code by reason of such REIT Partner’s share of items, including distributions,
reimbursements, fees, expenses or indemnities, receivable directly or indirectly from the Partnership, and this Section 15.12 shall be interpreted and applied to effectuate such purpose. 

Section 15.13 No Partition. 
 No Partner nor any successor-in-interest to a Partner shall have the right while this Agreement remains in effect to have any property of the Partnership partitioned, or to file a complaint or institute
any proceeding at law or in equity to have such property of the Partnership partitioned, and each Partner, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns hereby waives any such right. It is the intention of the Partners that the rights of the
parties hereto and their successors-in-interest to Partnership property, as among themselves, shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement, and that the rights of the Partners and their respective successors-in-interest shall be subject to the
limitations and restrictions as set forth in this Agreement. 
 Section 15.14 No Third-Party Rights Created Hereby.

 The provisions of this Agreement are solely for the purpose of defining the interests of the Holders, inter se; and no
other person, firm or entity (i.e., a party who is not a signatory hereto or a permitted successor to such signatory hereto) shall have any right, power, title or interest by way of subrogation or otherwise, in and to the rights, powers, title and
provisions of this Agreement; provided, that Indemnitees are intended third-party beneficiaries of Section 7.7. No creditor or other third party having dealings with the Partnership shall have the right to enforce the right or obligation of any
Partner to make Capital Contributions or loans to the Partnership or to pursue any other right or remedy hereunder or at law or in equity. None of the rights or obligations of the Partners herein set forth to make Capital Contributions or loans to
the Partnership shall be deemed an asset of the Partnership for any purpose by any creditor or other third party, nor may any such rights or obligations be sold, transferred or assigned by the Partnership or pledged or encumbered by the Partnership
to secure any debt or other obligation of the Partnership or any of the Partners. 
 Section 15.15 No Rights as
Stockholders. 
 Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as conferring upon the Holders of Partnership
Interests any rights whatsoever as stockholders of Parent, including without limitation any right to receive dividends or other distributions made to stockholders of Parent or to vote or to consent or receive notice as stockholders in respect of any
meeting of stockholders for the election of directors of Parent or any other matter.

 EXHIBIT A 
 EXAMPLES REGARDING REIT SHARE ADJUSTMENT FACTOR 
 For purposes of
the following examples, it is assumed that (a) the REIT Share Adjustment Factor in effect on                      is 1.0 and (b) on
                     (the “Partnership Record Date” for purposes of these examples), prior to the events described in the examples,
there are 100 REIT Shares issued and outstanding. 
 Example 1 
 On the Partnership Record Date, the Special Limited Partner declares a dividend on its outstanding REIT Shares in REIT Shares. The amount of the dividend is one REIT Share paid in respect of each REIT
Share owned. Pursuant to Paragraph (i) of the definition of “REIT Share Adjustment Factor,” the REIT Share Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted on the Partnership Record Date, effective immediately after the stock dividend is declared,
as follows: 
 1.0 * 200/100 = 2.0 
 Accordingly, the REIT Share Adjustment Factor after the stock dividend is declared is 2.0. 

Example 2 
 On the Partnership Record
Date, the Special Limited Partner distributes options to purchase REIT Shares to all holders of its REIT Shares. The amount of the distribution is one option to acquire one REIT Share in respect of each REIT Share owned. The strike price is $4.00 a
share. The Value of a REIT Share on the Partnership Record Date is $5.00 per share. Pursuant to Paragraph (ii) of the definition of “REIT Share Adjustment Factor,” the REIT Share Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted on the Partnership
Record Date, effective immediately after the options are distributed, as follows: 
 1.0 * (100 + 100)/(100 + [100 *
$4.00/$5.00]) = 1.1111 
 Accordingly, the REIT Share Adjustment Factor after the options are distributed is 1.1111. If the options expire or
become no longer exercisable, then the retroactive adjustment specified in Paragraph (ii) of the definition of “REIT Share Adjustment Factor” shall apply. 
 Example 3 
 On the Partnership Record Date, the Special Limited Partner distributes assets
to all holders of its REIT Shares. The amount of the distribution is one asset with a fair market value (as determined by the General Partner) of $1.00 in respect of each REIT Share owned. It is also assumed that the assets do not relate to assets
received by the Special Limited Partner pursuant to a pro rata distribution by the Partnership. The Value of a REIT Share on the Partnership Record Date is $5.00 a share. Pursuant to Paragraph (iii) of the definition of “REIT Share
Adjustment Factor,” the REIT Share Adjustment Factor shall be adjusted on the Partnership Record Date, effective immediately after the assets are distributed, as follows: 
 1.0 * $5.00/($5.00 – $1.00) = 1.25 
 Accordingly, the REIT Share Adjustment Factor
after the assets are distributed is 1.25.
