    FORM OF DEPOSITARY RECEIPTS, DEPOSIT OF STOCK, EXECUTION AND DELIVERY,
  TRANSFER, SURRENDER, AND REDEMPTION OF DEPOSITARY RECEIPTS    
  

        SECTION
2.1    Deposit of Stock; Execution and Delivery of Depositary Receipts in Respect Thereof.    Subject to the
terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Company may from time to time deposit shares of Stock under this Deposit Agreement by delivery to the Depositary of a certificate or certificates
for the stock to be deposited, properly endorsed or accompanied, if required by the Depositary, by a duly executed instrument of transfer or endorsement, in form satisfactory to the Depositary,
together with all such certifications as may be required by the Depositary in accordance with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement, and together with a written order of the Company directing the
Depositary to execute and deliver to, or upon the written order of, the person or persons stated in such order a Depositary Receipt or Depositary Receipts for the number of Depositary Shares relating
to such deposited Stock. 

        Deposited
Stock shall be held by the Depositary at the Depositary's Office or at such other place or places in the State of New Jersey as the Depositary shall determine. 

        Upon
receipt by the Depositary of a certificate or certificates for Stock deposited in accordance with the provisions of this Section, together with the other documents required as above
specified, and upon recordation of the Stock so deposited on the books of the Company in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, the Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit
Agreement, shall execute and deliver to or upon the order of the person or persons named in the written order delivered to the Depositary referred to in the first paragraph of this Section, a
Depositary Receipt or Depositary Receipts for the number of Depositary Shares relating to the Stock so deposited and registered in such
name or names as may be requested by such person or persons. The Depositary shall execute and deliver such Depositary Receipt or Depositary Receipts at the Depositary's Office or such other offices,
if any, as the Depositary may designate if requested by any such person or persons. Delivery at other offices shall be at the risk and expense of the person requesting such delivery. 

        Other
than in the case of splits, combinations or other reclassifications affecting the Stock, or in the case of dividends or other distributions of Stock, if any, there shall be
deposited hereunder not more than ten thousand (10,000) shares of Stock. 

        SECTION
2.2    Form and Transfer of Depositary Receipts.    Definitive Depositary Receipts shall be engraved or
printed or lithographed and shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A annexed to this Deposit Agreement, with appropriate
insertions, modifications and omissions, as hereinafter provided. Pending the preparation of definitive Depositary Receipts, the Depositary, upon the written order of the Company delivered in
compliance with Section 2.1, shall execute and deliver temporary Depositary Receipts that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise substantially of the tenor of the
definitive Depositary Receipts in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the persons executing such Depositary Receipts
may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Depositary Receipts. If temporary Depositary Receipts are issued, the Company and the Depositary will cause definitive Depositary Receipts to be
prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Depositary Receipts, the temporary Depositary Receipts shall be exchangeable for definitive Depositary Receipts upon surrender
of the temporary Depositary Receipts at an office designated by the Depositary as contemplated by the third paragraph of Section 2.1, without charge to the holder. Upon surrender for
cancellation of any one or more temporary Depositary Receipts, the Depositary shall 

2

 

execute and deliver in exchange therefor definitive Depositary Receipts representing the same number of Depositary Shares as are represented by the surrendered temporary Depositary Receipt or
Depositary Receipts. Such exchange shall be made at the Company's expense and without any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Depositary Receipts shall in all respects be entitled to
the same benefits under this Deposit Agreement, and with respect to the Stock, as definitive Depositary Receipts. 

        Depositary
Receipts shall be executed by the Depositary by the manual signature of a duly authorized officer of the Depositary; provided,  however, that such signature
may be a facsimile if a Registrar for the Depositary Receipts (other than the Depositary) shall have been appointed and
such Depositary Receipts are countersigned by manual signature of a duly authorized officer of the Registrar. No Depositary Receipt shall be entitled to any benefits under this Deposit Agreement or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose unless it shall have been executed manually by a duly authorized officer of the Depositary or, if a Registrar for the Depositary Receipts (other than the
Depositary) shall have been appointed, by facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer of the Depositary and countersigned manually by a duly authorized officer of such Registrar. The Depositary
shall record on its books each Depositary Receipt so signed and delivered as hereinafter provided. 

        Depositary
Receipts shall be in denominations of any number of whole Depositary Shares. 

        Depositary
Receipts may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends or recitals or changes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement as
may be required by the Company or the Depositary or required to comply with any applicable law or any regulations of any securities exchange upon which the Stock, the Depositary Shares or the
Depositary Receipts may be listed or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Depositary Receipts are subject. 

        Title
to Depositary Shares evidenced by a Depositary Receipt that is properly endorsed, or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer, shall be transferable by delivery
with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument; provided, however, that until transfer of a Depositary Share shall be registered on the
books of the Depositary as provided in Section 2.4, the Depositary may, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, treat the Record Holder thereof at such time as the absolute owner thereof
for the purpose of determining the person entitled to distributions of dividends or other distributions or to any notice provided for in this Deposit Agreement and for all other purposes. 

        SECTION
2.3    Redemption of Stock.    

        Whenever
the Company shall elect to redeem shares of Stock in accordance with the provisions of the Articles, it shall (unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Depositary) mail
notice to the Depositary of such proposed redemption, by first class mail, postage prepaid not less than 30 or more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption of Stock in accordance
with Section 6(c)(i) of the Articles. On the date of such redemption, provided that the Company shall then have paid in full to the Depositary the redemption price of the Stock to be
redeemed, as set forth in the Articles, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (the "Redemption Price"), the Depositary shall redeem the Depositary Shares relating to such Stock. The Depositary
shall mail notice of such redemption and the proposed simultaneous redemption of the number of Depositary Shares relating to the Stock to be redeemed, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, not less
than 30 and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption of such Stock and Depositary Shares (the "Redemption Date"), to the Record Holders of the Depositary Shares to be so
redeemed, at the addresses of such holders as they appear on the records of the Depositary; but neither failure to mail any such notice to one or more such holders nor any defect in any notice to one
or more such holders shall affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for redemption as to other holders. Each such notice shall state: (i) the Redemption Date; (ii) the number of
Depositary Shares to be redeemed and, if less than all the Depositary Shares held by 

3

 

any such holder are to be redeemed, the number of such Depositary Shares held by such holder to be so redeemed; (iii) the Redemption Price; (iv) the place or places where Depositary
Receipts evidencing Depositary Shares are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and (v) that dividends in respect of the Stock underlying the Depositary Shares to be redeemed
will cease to accrue and accumulate at the close of business on such Redemption Date. In case less than all the outstanding Depositary Shares are to be redeemed, the Depositary Shares to be so
redeemed shall be selected pro rata or by such other equitable method as may be determined by the Depositary to be equitable. 

        If
the Redemption Date is after the record date for determining holders of Depositary Shares entitled to any dividend or distribution, such dividend or distribution shall be payable to
the holders of such Depositary Shares at the close of business on such record date, notwithstanding such redemption. 

        Notice
having been mailed by the Depositary as aforesaid, from and after the Redemption Date (unless the Company shall have failed to redeem the shares of Stock to be redeemed by it as
set forth in the Company's notice provided for in the preceding paragraph), all dividends in respect of the Depositary Shares so called for redemption shall cease to accrue and accumulate, the
Depositary Shares being redeemed from such proceeds shall be deemed no longer to be outstanding, all rights of the holders of Depositary Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares (except
(i) the right to receive the Redemption Price, and (ii) the right to receive dividends the record date for which is prior to the Exchange Date or Redemption Date, as set forth in the
preceding paragraph) shall, to the extent of such Depositary Shares, cease and terminate and, upon surrender in accordance with such notice of the Depositary Receipts evidencing any such Depositary
Shares (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Depositary shall so require), such Depositary Shares shall be redeemed by the Depositary at the Redemption Price. 

        If
less than all the Depositary Shares evidenced by a Depositary Receipt are called for redemption, the Depositary will deliver to the holder of such Depositary Receipt upon its
surrender to the Depositary, together with the redemption payment, a new Depositary Receipt evidencing the Depositary Shares evidenced by such prior Depositary Receipt and not called for redemption. 

        SECTION
2.4    Registration of Transfer of Depositary Receipts.    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit
Agreement, the Depositary shall register on its books from time to time transfers of Depositary Shares upon any surrender of the Depositary Receipt or Depositary Receipts evidencing such Depositary
Shares by the holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer. Thereupon the Depositary shall execute a new Depositary
Receipt or Depositary Receipts evidencing the same aggregate number of Depositary Shares as those evidenced by the Depositary Receipt or Depositary Receipts surrendered and deliver such new Depositary
Receipt or Depositary Receipts to or upon the order of the person entitled thereto. 

        SECTION
2.5    Split-ups and Combinations of Depositary Receipts: Surrender of Depositary Shares and Withdrawal of
Stock.    Upon surrender of a Depositary Receipt or Depositary Receipts at the Depositary's Office or at such other offices as it may designate for the purpose of
effecting a split-up or combination of such Depositary Receipt or Depositary Receipts, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall execute and
deliver a new Depositary Receipt or Depositary Receipts in the denominations requested, evidencing the aggregate number of Depositary Shares evidenced by Depositary Receipt or Depositary Receipts
surrendered. 

        Any
holder of Depositary Shares may withdraw the number of whole shares of Stock underlying such Depositary Shares and all money and other property, if any, underlying such Depositary
Shares by surrendering Depositary Receipts evidencing such Depositary Shares at the Depositary's Office or at
such other offices as the Depositary may designate for such withdrawals. Thereafter, without unreasonable delay, the Depositary shall deliver to such holder, or to the person or persons designated by
such holder as hereinafter provided, the number of whole shares of Stock and all money and other 

4

 

property, if any, underlying the Depositary Shares so surrendered for withdrawal, but holders of such whole shares of Stock will not thereafter be entitled to deposit such Stock hereunder or to
receive Depositary Receipts evidencing Depositary Shares therefor. If a Depositary Receipt delivered by a holder to the Depositary in connection with such withdrawal shall evidence a number of
Depositary Shares relating to other than a number of whole shares of Stock, the Depositary shall at the same time, in addition to such number of whole shares of Stock and such money and other
property, if any, to be so withdrawn, deliver to such holder, or (subject to Section 3.2) upon his or her order, a new Depositary Receipt evidencing such excess number of Depositary Shares. In
no event will fractional shares of Stock be distributed by the Depositary. Delivery of the Stock and money and other property being withdrawn may be made by delivery of such certificates, documents of
title and other instruments as the Depositary may deem appropriate. 

        If
the Stock and the money and other property being withdrawn are to be delivered to a person or persons other than the Record Holder of the Depositary Shares evidenced by the Depositary
Receipts being surrendered for withdrawal of Stock, such holder shall execute and deliver to the Depositary a written order so directing the Depositary, and the Depositary may require that the
Depositary Receipt or Depositary Receipts surrendered by such bolder for withdrawal of such shares of Stock be properly endorsed in blank or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer. 

        Delivery
of the Stock and money and other property, if any, underlying the Depositary Shares surrendered for withdrawal shall be made by the Depositary at the Depositary's Office, except
that, at the request, risk and expense of the holder surrendering such Depositary Shares and for the account of such holder, such delivery may be made at such other place as may be designated by such
holder. 

        SECTION
2.6    Limitations on Execution and Delivery Transfer; Surrender and Exchange of Depositary Receipts.    As a
condition precedent to the execution and delivery, registration of transfer, split-up, combination, surrender or exchange of any Depositary Receipt, the Depositary, any of the Depositary's
Agents or the Company may require payment to it of a sum sufficient for the payment (or, in the event that the Depositary or the Company shall have made such payment, the reimbursement to it) of any
charges or expenses payable by the holder of a Depositary Receipt pursuant to Section 5.7, may require the production of evidence satisfactory to it as to the identity and genuineness of any
signature and may also require compliance with such regulations, if any, as the Depositary or the Company may establish consistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement. 

        The
delivery of Depositary Receipts against Stock may be suspended, the registration of transfer of Depositary Shares may be refused and the registration of transfer, surrender or
exchange of outstanding Depositary Shares may be suspended (i) during any period when the register of stockholders of the Company is closed or (ii) if any such action is deemed necessary
or advisable by the Depositary, any of the Depositary's Agents or the Company at any time from time to time because of
any requirement of law or of any government or governmental body or commission or under any provision of this Deposit Agreement. 

        SECTION
2.7    Lost Depositary Receipts, etc.    In case any Depositary Receipt shall be mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen, the Depositary in its discretion may execute and deliver a Depositary Receipt of like form and tenor in exchange and substitution for such mutilated Depositary Receipt, or in lieu of and in
substitution for such destroyed, lost or stolen Depositary Receipt, upon (i) the filing by the holder thereof with the Depositary of evidence satisfactory to the Depositary of such destruction
or loss or theft of such Depositary Receipt, or the authenticity thereof and of his or her ownership thereof and (ii) the furnishing to the Depositary of reasonable indemnification satisfactory
to it. 

        SECTION
2.8    Cancellation and Destruction of Surrendered Depositary Receipts.    All Depositary Receipts surrendered
to the Depositary or any Depositary's Agent shall be canceled by the Depositary. Except as prohibited by applicable law or regulation, the Depositary is authorized to destroy all Depositary Receipts
so canceled.

ARTICLE III
  
    CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS OF THE HOLDERS
  OF DEPOSITARY RECEIPTS AND THE COMPANY    
  

        SECTION
3.1    Filing Proofs Certificates and Other Information.    Any holder of a Depositary Share may be required
from time to time to file such proof of residence, or other matters or other information, to execute such certificates and to make such representations and warranties as the Depositary or the Company
may reasonably deem necessary or proper. The Depositary or the Company may withhold the delivery, or delay the registration of transfer, redemption or exchange, of any Depositary Share or the
withdrawal of any Stock underlying Depositary Shares or the distribution of any dividend or other distribution or the sale of any rights or of the proceeds thereof until such proof or other
information is filed or such certificates are executed or such representations and warranties are made. 

        SECTION
3.2    Payment of Taxes or Other Governmental Charges.    Holders of Depositary Shares shall be obligated to
make payments to the Depositary of certain charges and expenses, as provided in Section 5.7. Registration of transfer of any Depositary Share or any withdrawal of Stock and delivery of all
money or other property, if any, underlying such Depositary Share may be refused until any such payment due is made, and any dividends or other distributions may be withheld or all or any part of the
Stock or other property relating to such Depositary Shares and not theretofore sold may be sold for the account of the holder thereof (after attempting by reasonable means to notify such holder prior
to such sale), and such dividends or other distributions or the proceeds of any such sale may be applied to any payment of such charges or expenses, the holder of such Depositary Share remaining
liable for any deficiency. 

        SECTION
3.3    Warranty as to Stock.    The Company hereby represents and warrants that the Stock, when issued, will
be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Such representation and warranty shall survive the deposit of the Stock and the issuance of the Depositary Receipts. 

 
 

ARTICLE IV
  
    THE DEPOSITED SECURITIES; NOTICES    
  

        SECTION
4.1    Cash Distributions.    Whenever the Depositary shall receive any cash dividend or other cash
distribution on the Stock, the Depositary shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, promptly distribute to the Record Holder of Depositary Shares on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4
such amounts of such dividend or distribution as are, as nearly as practicable in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares held by such holders;  provided, however, that in case the Company or the Depositary shall be required to withhold and shall
withhold from any cash dividend or other cash distribution in respect of the Stock an amount on account of taxes, the amount made available for distribution or distributed in respect of Depositary
Shares to the Record Holders shall be reduced accordingly. Fractions will be rounded down to the nearest whole cent. 

        SECTION
4.2    Distributions Other than Cash.    Whenever the Depositary shall receive any distribution other than
cash on the Stock, the Depositary shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, promptly distribute to the Record Holders of Depositary Shares on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 such
amounts of the securities or property received by it as are, as nearly as practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares held by such holders, in any manner that the
Depositary may deem equitable and practicable for accomplishing such distribution. If in the opinion of the Depositary such distribution cannot be made proportionately among such Record Holders, or if
for any other reason (including any requirement that the Company or the Depositary withhold an amount on account of taxes or governmental charges) the Depositary deems, after consultation with the
Company, such distribution not to be feasible, the Depositary may, with the 

6

 

written approval of the Company, adopt such method as it deems equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the sale (at public or private sale) of the
securities or property thus received, or any part thereof, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper. The net proceeds of any such sale shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2,
be distributed or made available for distribution, as the case may be, by the Depositary to the Record Holders of Depositary Shares entitled thereto as provided by Section 4.1 in the case of a
distribution received in cash. The Company shall not make any distribution of such securities unless the Company shall have
provided an opinion of counsel to the effect that such securities have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), or do not need to be so registered. 

        SECTION
4.3    Subscription Rights, Preferences or Privileges.    If the Company shall at any time offer or cause to
be offered to the persons in whose names Stock is recorded on the books of the Company any rights, preferences or privileges to subscribe for or to purchase any securities or any rights, preferences
or privileges of any other nature, such rights, preferences or privileges shall in each such instance be made available by the Depositary to the Record Holders of Depositary Shares in such manner as
the Depositary may determine, either by the issue to such Record Holders of warrants representing such rights, preferences or privileges or by such other method as may be approved by the Depositary
with the written approval of the Company; provided, however, that (a) if at the time of issue or offer of any such rights, preferences or privileges the Depositary determines that it is not
lawful or (after consultation with the Company) not feasible to make such rights, preferences or privileges available to holders of Depositary Shares by the issuance of warrants or otherwise, or
(b) if and to the extent so instructed by holders of Depositary Shares who do not desire to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges, then the Depositary, in its discretion (with the
approval of the Company, in any case where the Depositary has determined that it is not feasible to make such rights, preferences or privileges available), may, if applicable laws or the terms of such
rights, preferences or privileges permit such transfer, sell such rights, preferences or privileges at public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper. The
net proceeds of any such sale shall, subject to Section 3.1 and 3.2, be distributed by the Depositary to the Record Holders of Depositary Shares entitled thereto as provided by
Section 4.1 in the case of a distribution received in cash. The Company shall not make any distribution of such rights, preferences or privileges unless the Company shall have provided an
opinion of counsel to the Depositary to the effect that such rights, preferences or privileges have been registered under the 1933 Act or do not need to be registered. 

        If
registration under the 1933 Act of the securities to which any rights, preferences or privileges relate is required in order for holders of Depositary Shares to be offered or sold the
securities to which such rights, preferences or privileges relate, the Company agrees with the Depositary that it will file promptly a registration statement pursuant to such Act with respect to such
rights, preferences or privileges and securities and use its best efforts and take all steps available to it to cause such registration statement to become effective sufficiently in advance of the
expiration of such rights, preferences or privileges to enable such holders to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges. In no event shall the Depositary make available to the holders of
Depositary Shares any right, preference or privilege to subscribe for or to purchase any securities unless and until such a registration statement shall have become effective, or unless the offering
and sale of such securities to such holders are exempt from registration under the provisions of such Act. 

        If
any other action under the laws of any jurisdiction or any governmental or administrative authorization, consent or permit is required in order for such rights, preferences or
privileges to be made available to the holders of Depositary Shares, the Company agrees with the Depositary that the Company will use its best efforts to take such action or obtain such authorization,
consent or permit sufficiently in advance of the expiration of such rights, preferences or privileges to enable such holders to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges. 

7

 

        SECTION
4.4    Notice of Dividends; Fixing of Record Date for Holders of Depositary Shares.    Whenever any cash
dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable or any distribution other than cash shall be made, or if rights, preferences or privileges shall at any time be offered, with respect to the
Stock, or whenever the Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting at which holders of Stock are entitled to vote, or of which holders of Stock are entitled to notice, the Depositary shall in each
such instance fix a record date (which shall be the same date as the record date fixed by the Company with respect to the Stock) for the determination of the holders of Depositary Shares who shall be
entitled to receive a distribution in respect of such dividend, distribution, rights, preferences or privileges or the net proceeds of the sale thereof, or to give instructions for the exercise of
voting rights at any such meeting, or who shall be entitled to receive notice of such meeting. 

        SECTION
4.5    Voting Rights.    Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of the Stock are entitled
to vote pursuant to the Articles, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail to the Record Holders of Depositary Shares a notice that shall be provided by the Company and that shall
contain (a) such information as is contained in such notice of meeting and (b) a statement informing holders of Depositary Shares that they may instruct the Depositary as to the exercise
of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of Stock underlying their respective Depositary Shares and a brief statement as to the manner in which such instructions may be given. Upon the written
request of the holders of Depositary Shares on the record date established in accordance with Section 4.4, the Depositary shall endeavor insofar as practicable to vote or cause to be voted, in
accordance with the instructions set forth in such requests, the maximum number of whole shares of Stock underlying the Depositary Shares as to which any particular voting instructions are received.
The Company hereby agrees to take all action that may be deemed necessary by the Depositary in order to enable the Depositary to vote such Stock or cause such Stock to be voted. In the absence of
specific instructions from the holder of a Depositary Share, the Depositary will refrain from voting to the extent of the Stock underlying the Depositary Shares. 

        SECTION
4.6    Changes Affecting Deposited Securities and Reclassifications. Recapitalizations, etc.    Upon any
change in par or liquidation value, split-up, combination or any other reclassification of the Stock, or upon any recapitalization, reorganization merger, amalgamation or consolidation
affecting the Company or to which it is a party, the Depositary shall, upon the instructions of the Company, (i) make such adjustments in (a) the fraction of an interest in one share of
Stock underlying one Depositary Share and (b) the ratio of the redemption price per Depositary Share to the redemption price of a share of the Stock, in each case as may be necessary fully to
reflect the effects of such change in par or liquidation value, split-up, combination or other reclassification of the Stock, or of such recapitalization, reorganization, merger,
amalgamation or consolidation and (ii) treat any securities that shall be received by the Depositary in exchange for or upon conversion of or in respect of the Stock as new deposited securities
so received in exchange for or upon conversion of or in respect of such Stock. In any such case the Depositary may in its discretion, with the approval of the Company, execute and deliver additional
Depositary Receipts, or may call for the surrender of all outstanding Depositary Receipts to be exchanged for new Depositary Receipts specifically describing such new deposited securities.
Furthermore, by mutual agreement of the Company and the Depositary, the Depositary may at any time make adjustments in (i) the fraction of an interest in one share of Stock underlying one
Depositary Share and (ii) the ratio of the redemption price or exchange price per Depositary Share to the redemption price or exchange price of a share of the Stock. 

        SECTION
4.7    Delivery of Reports.    The Depositary will forward to Record Holders of Depositary Receipts, at their
respective addresses appearing in the Depositary's books, all notices, reports and communications received from the Company that are delivered to the Depositary and that the Company is required to
furnish to the holders of Stock or Depositary Receipts. 

        SECTION
4.8    List of Holders.    Promptly upon each and every request from time to time by the Company, the
Depositary shall furnish to it a list, as of a recent date, of the names, addresses and 

8

 

holdings of Depositary Shares of all persons in whose names Depositary Shares are registered on the books of the Depositary or Registrar, as the case may be. 

        SECTION
4.9    Restriction on Ownership and Transfer to Preserve Tax Benefit.    Notwithstanding any terms or
provisions to the contrary contained herein, to ensure that the Company remains qualified as a REIT for federal and state income tax purposes, the Depositary Shares shall be subject to the provisions
of Article VI of the Company's Charter pursuant to which, among other things, shares of Series C Preferred Stock owned by a stockholder in excess of the Ownership Limit shall
automatically be subject to the remedies set forth in such Article VI and may be redeemed by the Company in accordance with the Charter.

        SECTION
5.1    Maintenance of Offices, Agencies and Transfer Books by the Depositary; Registrar.    Upon execution of
this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall maintain at the Depositary's Offices, or at any Registrar's Office, at which the Depositary shall have complete access to all books and records maintained
on the Company's behalf, facilities for the execution and delivery, surrender and exchange of Depositary Receipts and the registration and registration of transfer of Depositary Shares, and at the
offices of the Depositary's agents, if any, facilities for the delivery, surrender and exchange of Depositary Receipts and the registration of transfer of Depositary Shares, all in accordance with the
provisions of this Deposit Agreement. 

        The
Depositary shall keep books at the Depositary's Office for the registration and registration of transfer of Depositary Shares, which books at all reasonable times shall be open for
inspection by the Record Holders of Depositary Shares; provided, however, that such inspection shall be for a proper purpose reasonably related to such person's interest as an owner of Depositary
Shares and any such
holder requesting to exercise such right shall certify such fact in writing to the Depositary and the Company. 

        The
Depositary may close such books, at any time or from time to time, when deemed expedient by it in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder. 

        If
the Depositary Receipts or the Depositary Shares evidenced thereby or the Stock underlying such Depositary Shares shall be listed on The New York Stock Exchange, the Depositary may,
with the approval of the Company, appoint a Registrar for registration of such Depositary Receipts or Depositary Shares in accordance with any requirements of such exchange. Such Registrar (which may
be the Depositary if so permitted by the requirements of such exchange) may be removed and a substitute registrar appointed by the Depositary upon the written request or with the written approval of
the Company. If the Depositary Receipts, such Depositary Shares or such Stock are listed on one or more other stock exchanges, the Depositary will, at the request of the Company, arrange such
facilities for the execution, delivery, registration, registration of transfer, surrender and exchange of such Depositary Receipts, such Depositary Shares or such Stock as may be required by law or
applicable stock exchange regulation.

reason of any provision of any present or future law, or regulation thereunder, of the United States of America or of any other governmental authority or, in the case of the Depositary, any
Depositary's Agent or any Registrar, by reason of any provision, present or future, of the Company's charter (including the Articles) or by reason of any act of God or war or other circumstance beyond

reason of any nonperformance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in the performance of any act or thing that the terms of this Deposit Agreement provide shall or may be done or performed, or (ii) by
reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Deposit Agreement except, in case of any such exercise or failure to exercise discretion not caused as aforesaid,
if caused by the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the party charged with such exercise or failure to exercise. 

        SECTION
5.3    Obligations of the Depositary, the Depositary's Agents, any Registrar and the Company.    Neither the
Depositary nor any Depositary's Agent nor any Registrar nor the Company assumes any obligation or shall be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement to holders of Depositary Shares other
than for such person's own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. 

        Neither
the Depositary nor any Depositary's Agent nor any Registrar nor the Company shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding
in respect of the Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Depositary Receipts that in its opinion may involve it in expense or liability unless indemnity satisfactory to it against all expense and
liability be furnished as often as may be required. 

        Neither
the Depositary nor any Depositary's Agent nor any Registrar nor the Company shall be liable for any action or failure to act by it in reliance upon the written advice of legal
counsel or accountants, or information from any person presenting Stock for deposit, any holder of a Depositary Share or any other person believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such
information. The Depositary, any Depositary's Agent, any Registrar and the Company may each rely and shall each be protected in acting upon any written notice, request, direction or other document
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. 

        The
Depositary undertakes, and any Registrar shall be required to undertake, to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Deposit Agreement, and no
implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Deposit Agreement against the Depositary or any Registrar. The Depositary shall not be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement to
the Company other than for any liability that may arise out of acts performed or omitted by the Depositary or its agents due to its or their negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. The
Depositary, the Depositary's agents, any Registrar and the Company may own and deal in any class of securities of the Company and its affiliates and in Depositary Shares. The Depositary may also act

        Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Depositary be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but
not limited to lost profits), even if the Depositary has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 

        SECTION
5.4    Resignation and Removal of the Depositary; Appointment of Successor Depositary.    The Depositary may
at any time resign as Depositary hereunder by written notice of its election so to be delivered to the Company, such resignation to take effect upon the appointment of a successor Depositary and such
successor's written acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided. 

        The
Depositary may at any time be removed by the Company by written notice of such removal delivered to the Depositary, such removal to take effect upon the appointment of a successor
Depositary and such successor's written acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided. 

        In
case the Depositary acting hereunder shall at any time resign or be removed, the Company shall, within 60 days after the delivery of the notice of resignation or removal, as
the case may be, 

10

 

appoint a successor Depositary, which shall be a bank or trust company having its principal office in the United States of America and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000.
If no successor Depositary shall have been so appointed within 60 days after delivery of such notice, the resigning or removed Depositary may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a successor Depositary. Every successor Depositary shall execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the Company an instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and
thereupon such successor Depositary, without any further act or deed, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor and for all purposes shall be the
Depositary under this Deposit Agreement, and such predecessor, upon the written request of the Company, shall execute and deliver an installment transferring to such successor all rights and powers of
such predecessor hereunder, shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all right, title and interest in the Stock and any moneys or property held hereunder to such successor and shall deliver to such
successor a list of the Record Holders of all outstanding Depositary Shares. Any successor Depositary shall promptly mail notice of its appointment to the Record Holders of Depositary Shares.
Thereafter, any predecessor Depositary shall deliver any correspondence received from any holders of Depositary Shares to the successor Depositary. 

        Any
corporation into or with which the Depositary may be merged, consolidated or converted shall be the successor of such Depositary without the execution or filing of any document or
any further act. Such successor Depositary may authenticate the Depositary Receipts in the name of the predecessor Depositary or in the name of the successor Depositary. 

        SECTION

        SECTION
5.6    Indemnification by the Company.    The Company shall indemnify the Depositary, any Depositary's Agent
and any Registrar against, and hold each of them harmless from, any loss, liability or expense (including the costs and expenses of defense) that may arise out of (i) acts performed or omitted
in connection with this Deposit Agreement and the Depositary Shares (a) by the Depositary, any Registrar or any of their respective agents (including any Depositary's Agent), except for any
liability arising out of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the respective parts of any such person or persons, or (b) by the Company or any of its agents, arising out of the
Company's or its agents' gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, or (ii) the offer, sale or registration under the securities laws of the United States of the Depositary Shares or
the Stock. The obligations of the Company set forth in this Section 5.6 shall survive any succession of any Depositary, Registrar or Depositary's Agent. 

        SECTION
5.7    Charges and Expenses.    The Company shall pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges
arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangements. The Company shall pay all charges of the Depositary agreed upon by the Company and the Depositary in connection
with the initial deposit of the Stock and the initial issuance of the Depositary Receipts, any redemption of the Stock at the option of the Company and any withdrawals of Stock by holders of
Depositary Shares. All other transfer and other taxes and governmental charges shall be at the expense of holders of Depositary Shares. If, at the request of a holder of a Depositary Share, the
Depositary incurs charges or expenses for which it is not otherwise liable hereunder, such holder will be liable for such charges and expenses. The Company shall pay the Depositary reasonable
compensation for all services rendered by the Depositary under this Deposit Agreement according to the fee schedule agreed to by the Company and the Depositary. All other charges and expenses of the
Depositary, any Depositary's Agent hereunder and any Registrar (including, in each case, fees and expenses of counsel) incident to the performance of their respective obligations hereunder will be
paid upon consultation and 

11

 

agreement between the Depositary and the Company as to the amount and nature of such charges and expenses. 

        SECTION
5.8    Tax Compliance.    The Depositary, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Company, will comply with all
applicable certification, information, reporting and withholding (including "backup" withholding) requirements imposed by applicable tax laws, regulations or administrative practice with respect to
(i) any payments made with respect to Depositary Shares or (ii) the issuance, delivery, holding, transfer, redemption or exercise of rights under the Depositary Receipts or the
Depositary Shares. Such compliance shall include, without limitation, the preparation and timely filing of required returns and the timely payment of all amounts required to be withheld to the
appropriate taxing authority or its designated agent. 

        The
Depositary shall comply with any direction received from the Company with respect to the application of such requirements to particular payments or holders or in other particular
circumstances, and may for purposes of this Deposit Agreement rely on any such direction in accordance with the provision of Section 5.3 hereof. 

        The

SUPPLEMENTARY) AND BYLAWS, AS AMENDED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO (1) SECTION 6 OF THE ARTICLES SUPPLEMENTARY RELATING TO THE STOCK, WHICH CONFERS UPON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY
THE RIGHT, ON OR AFTER MARCH 14, 2008, TO REDEEM THE STOCK, (2) ARTICLE VI OF THE CHARTER, WHICH CONFERS UPON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS THE RIGHT TO REFUSE TO REGISTER THE TRANSFER OF AND/OR CALL
FOR REDEMPTION THE STOCK IF NECESSARY IN ITS OPINION TO MAINTAIN THE COMPANY'S QUALIFICATION AS A "REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST" UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED, AND (3) THE
SECTIONS OF THE CHARTER (INCLUDING THE ARTICLES SUPPLEMENTARY) AND THE BYLAWS OF THE COMPANY WHICH SET FORTH OWNERSHIP LIMITATION PROVISIONS DESIGNED TO MAINTAIN SUCH
QUALIFICATION.

        1.    Depositary Shares. Subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement each owner of a Depositary Share is entitled,
proportionately through the Depositary, to all the rights and preferences of the Stock relating thereto including dividend, voting, redemption and liquidation rights contained in the Articles
Supplementary adopted by the Company's Board of Directors setting forth the number, terms, powers, descriptions, rights, preferences, qualifications, restrictions and limitations of the Stock (the
"Articles"), copies of which are on file at the Depositary's office at 525 Washington Boulevard, Jersey City, New Jersey 07310, Attention: Client Administration. Certain terms used herein but not
defined are defined in the Articles. 

        2.    The Deposit Agreement. Depositary Receipts (the "Depositary Receipts" or the "Receipts"), of which this Depositary Receipt
is one, are made available upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Deposit Agreement. The Deposit Agreement sets forth the rights of holders of the Receipts and the Depositary Shares evidenced
thereby and the rights and duties of the Depositary and the Company in respect of the Stock deposited, and any and all other property and cash deposited from time to time thereunder. The statements
made on the face and the reverse of this Depositary Receipt are summaries of certain provisions of the Deposit Agreement and are subject to the detailed provisions thereof, to which reference is
hereby made. Unless otherwise expressly herein provided, all defined terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Deposit Agreement. 

        3.    Redemption. Whenever the Company shall elect to redeem shares of Stock in accordance with the provisions of the Articles,
it shall (unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Depositary) mail notice to the Depositary of such proposed redemption, by first class mail, postage prepaid not less than 30 or more than
60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption of Stock in accordance with Section 6(c)(i) of the Articles. On the date of such redemption, provided that the Company shall then
have paid in full to the Depositary the redemption price of the Stock to be redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (the "Redemption Price"), the Depositary shall redeem the Depositary
Shares relating to such Stock. The Depositary shall mail notice of such redemption and the proposed simultaneous redemption of the number of Depositary Shares relating to the Stock to be redeemed, by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, not less than 30 and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption of such Stock and Depositary Shares (the "Redemption Date"), to the Record
Holders of the Receipts representing the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed, at the addresses of such holders as they appear on the records of the Depositary; but neither failure to mail any such
notice to one or more such holders nor any defect in any notice to one or more such holders shall affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for redemption as to other holders. Each such notice shall
state: (i) the Redemption Date; (ii) the number of Depositary Shares to be redeemed and, if less than all the Depositary Shares represented by the Receipt held by any such holder are to
be redeemed, the number of such Depositary Shares represented by such Receipt held by such holder to be so redeemed; (iii) the Redemption Price; (iv) the place or places where Receipts
evidencing Depositary Shares are to be 

3

 

surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price; and (v) that dividends in respect of the Stock underlying the Depositary Shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue and accumulate at the close
of business on such Redemption Date. In case fewer than all the outstanding Depositary Shares are to be redeemed, the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed shall be selected pro rata or by such other
equitable method as may be determined by the Company's Board of Directors to be equitable. 

        If
the Redemption Date is after the record date for determining holders of Receipts representing Depositary Shares entitled to any dividend or distribution, such dividend or distribution
shall be payable to the holders of such Receipts at the close of business on such record date, notwithstanding such redemption. 

        Notice
having been mailed by the Depositary as aforesaid, from and after the Redemption Date (unless the Company shall have failed to redeem the shares of Stock to be redeemed by it as
set forth in the Company's notice provided for in the preceding paragraph) all dividends in respect of the Depositary
Shares so called for redemption shall cease to accrue and accumulate, the Depositary Shares being redeemed from such proceeds shall be deemed to no longer be outstanding, all rights of the holders of
Receipts representing such Depositary Shares (except (i) the right to receive the Redemption Price, and (ii) the right to receive dividends the record date for which is prior to the
Redemption Date, as set forth in the preceding paragraph) shall, to the extent of such Depositary Shares, cease and terminate and, upon surrender in accordance with such notice of the Receipts
evidencing any such Depositary Shares (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Depositary shall so require), such Depositary Shares shall be redeemed by the Depositary at the Redemption
Price. 

        If
less than all the Depositary Shares evidenced by a Depositary Receipt are called for redemption, the Depositary will deliver to the holder of such Depositary Receipt upon its
surrender to the Depositary, together with the redemption payment, a new Depositary Receipt evidencing the Depositary Shares evidenced by such prior Depositary Receipt and not called for redemption. 

        4.    Transfer, Split-Ups and Combinations. The Depositary Shares evidenced by this Depositary Receipt are
transferable on the books of the Depositary upon surrender of this Depositary Receipt to the Depositary, properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer, and upon such
transfer the Depositary shall execute a new Depositary Receipt to or upon the order of the person entitled thereto as provided in the Deposit Agreement. This Depositary Receipt may be split into other
Receipts or combined with other Receipts into one Depositary Receipt representing the same aggregate number of Depositary Shares as the Depositary Receipt or Receipts surrendered. 

        5.    Suspension of Delivery, Transfer, etc. The transfer or surrender of this Depositary Receipt may be suspended during any
period when the register of stockholders of the Company is closed or if any such action is deemed necessary or advisable by the Depositary, any agent of the Depositary or the Company at any time or
from time to time because of any requirement of law or of any government or governmental body or commission, or under any provision of the Deposit Agreement. 

        6.    Filing Proofs, Certificates and Other Information. Any holder of a Depositary Receipt may be required to file such proof
of residence or other matters or other information, to execute such certificates and to make such representations and warranties as the Depositary or the Company may reasonably deem necessary or
proper. The Depositary or the Company may withhold the delivery or delay the registration of transfer or redemption of any Depositary Share or the distribution of any dividend or other distribution or
the sale of any rights or of the proceeds thereof until such proof or other information is filed or such certificates are executed or such representations and warranties are made. 

        7.    Payment of Taxes or Other Governmental Charges. If any tax or other governmental charge shall become payable by or on
behalf of the Depositary with respect to this Depositary Receipt, such tax (including transfer taxes, if any) or governmental charge shall be payable by the holder hereof. Transfer 

4

 

of Depositary Shares may be refused until such payment is made, and any dividends or other distributions may be withheld or all or any part of the Stock or other property underlying the
Depositary Share or Shares evidenced by this Depositary Receipt and not theretofore sold may be sold for the account of the holder hereof (after attempting by reasonable means to notify such holder
prior to such sale) and such dividends or other distributions or the proceeds of any such sale may be applied to any payment of such charges or expenses, the holder of this Depositary Receipt
remaining liable for any deficiency. 

        8.    Warranty by Company. The Company has warranted that the Stock, when issued, will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable. 

        9.    Amendment. The form of the Receipts and any provisions of the Deposit Agreement may at any time and from time to time be
amended by agreement between the Company and the Depositary in any respect which they may deem necessary or desirable; provided, however, that no such amendment which shall materially and adversely
alter the rights of the existing holders of Receipts representing Depositary Shares shall be effective unless such amendment shall have been approved by the holders of Receipts representing at least a
majority of the Depositary Shares then outstanding. A holder of a Depositary Receipt at the time any such amendment so becomes effective shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such Depositary Receipt,
to consent and agree to such amendment and to be bound by the Deposit Agreement as amended thereby. 

        10.  Charges of Depositary. The Company will pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the
existence of the depositary arrangements and all charges of the Depositary in connection with the initial deposit of the Stock and the initial issuance of the Receipts, any redemption of the Stock at
the option of the Company and any withdrawals of Stock by holders of Receipts representing Depositary Shares. All other transfer and other taxes and other governmental charges shall be at the expense
of holders of Depositary Receipts. All other charges and expenses of the Depositary, any Depositary's Agent and any Registrar will be paid upon consultation and agreement between the Depositary and
the Company. 

        11.  Title to Receipts. This Depositary Receipt (and the Depositary Shares evidenced hereby), when properly endorsed or
accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer, is transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument; provided, however, that until transfer of the
Depositary Share or Shares evidenced by a Depositary Receipt shall be registered on the books of the Depositary, the Depositary may, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, treat the Record Holder
of the Receipt representing such Depositary Share or Shares at such time as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of determining the person entitled to distributions of dividends or other
distributions or to any notice provided for in the Deposit Agreement and for all other purposes. 

        12.  Dividends and Distributions. Whenever the Depositary receives any cash dividend or other cash distribution on the Stock,
the Depositary will, subject to the provisions of the Deposit Agreement, make such distribution to the holders of the Receipts representing the Depositary Shares on the relevant record date as nearly
as practicable in proportion to the number of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Depositary Receipts held by such holders; provided, however, that in case the Company or the Depositary shall be
required to withhold and shall withhold from any cash dividend or
other cash distribution in respect of the Stock an amount on account of taxes, the amount made available for distribution or distributed in respect of Depositary Shares shall be reduced accordingly.
Fractions will be rounded down to the nearest whole cent. 

        13.  Fixing of Record Date. Whenever any cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable or any distribution
other than cash shall be made, or if rights, preferences or privileges shall at any time be offered with respect to the Stock, or whenever the Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting at which
holders of Stock are entitled to vote or of which holders of Stock are entitled to 

5

 

notice, the Depositary shall in each instance fix a record date (which shall be the record date fixed by the Company with respect to the Stock) for the determination of the holders of the Receipts
representing Depositary Shares who shall be entitled to receive such dividend distribution, rights, preferences or privileges or the net proceeds of the sale thereof, or to give instructions for the
exercise of voting rights at any such meeting or who shall be entitled to notice of such meeting. 

        14.  Voting Rights. Upon receipt of notice of any meeting or action to be taken by written consent at which holders of the
Stock are entitled to vote or consent pursuant to the Articles, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail to the record holders of Depositary Receipts a notice which shall contain
(i) such information as is contained in such notice of meeting or action and (ii) a statement informing holders of Receipts representing Depositary Shares that they may instruct the
Depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights or the giving or refusal of consent pertaining to the amount of Stock underlying their respective Depositary Shares and a brief statement as to the
manner in which such instructions may be given. Upon the written request of a holder of a Receipt representing a Depositary Share or Depositary Shares on the record date established in accordance with
paragraph 13 hereof, the Depositary shall endeavor insofar as practicable to vote or cause to be voted or give or withhold consent the amount of Stock underlying such Depositary Share in
accordance with the instructions set forth in such request. In the absence of specific instructions from the holder of a Receipt representing a Depositary Share or Depositary Shares, the Depositary
will refrain from voting to the extent of the Stock underlying such Depositary Share or Depositary Shares. 

        15.  Changes Affecting Deposited Securities. Upon any change in par or liquidation value, split-up, combination or
any other reclassification of the Stock or upon any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, amalgamation or consolidation affecting the Company or to which it is a party, the Depositary shall, upon
the instructions of the Company, (i) make such adjustments in (a) the fraction of an interest in one share of Stock underlying one Depositary Share and (b) the ratio of the
Redemption Price per Depositary Share to the redemption price of a share of Stock, in each case as may be necessary to fully reflect the effect of such change and (ii) treat any securities
which shall be received by the Depositary in exchange for or upon conversion of or in respect of the Stock as new deposited securities so received in exchange for or upon conversion of or in respect
of such Stock. In any such case the Depositary may in its discretion, with the approval of the Company, execute and deliver additional Receipts, or may call for the surrender of all outstanding
Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts specifically describing such new deposited securities. Furthermore, by mutual agreement of the Company and the Depositary, the Depositary may at any time make
adjustments in (i) the fraction of an interest in one share of Stock underlying one Depositary Share and (ii) the ratio of the Redemption Price per Depositary Share to the redemption
price or exchange price of a share of the Stock. 

        16.  Restriction on Ownership and Transfer to Preserve Tax Benefit. Notwithstanding any terms or provisions to the contrary
contained in the Deposit Agreement or herein, to ensure that the Company remains qualified as a REIT for federal and state income tax purposes, the Depositary Shares shall be subject to the provisions
of Article VI of the Company's Charter pursuant to which, among other things, shares of Series C Preferred Stock owned by a stockholder in excess of the Ownership Limit shall
automatically be subject to the remedies set forth in such Article VI and may be redeemed by the Company in accordance with the Charter. 

        17.  Liability and Obligations of the Depositary, the Depositary's Agents or the Company. Neither the Depositary nor any
Depositary's Agent nor any Registrar nor the Company assumes any obligations or shall be subject to any liability under the Deposit Agreement to any holder of any Receipt representing a Depositary
Share or Depositary Shares, other than for such person's own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary's Agent nor any Registrar nor the Company
shall incur any liability to any holder of any Receipt representing a Depositary Share or Depositary Shares if by reason of any provision of any present or future law, or regulation thereunder of the
United States of America or of any other governmental authority or, in the case of the 

6

 

Depositary, any Depositary's Agent or any Registrar, by reason of any provision, present or future, of the Company's Charter (including the Articles) or by reason of any act of God or war or other
circumstance beyond their control, the Depositary, any Depositary's Agent, any Registrar or the Company shall be prevented or forbidden from doing or performing any act or thing which the terms of the
Deposit Agreement provide shall be done or performed, nor shall the Depositary, any Depositary's Agent, any Registrar or the Company incur any liability to any holder of a Receipt representing a
Depositary Share or Depositary Shares by reason of nonperformance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in performance of any act or thing which the terms of the Deposit Agreement provide shall or may be
done or performed, or by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in the Deposit Agreement, other than for its gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary's Agent nor any Registrar nor the Company shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of
the Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts, which in its opinion may involve it in expense or liability unless indemnity satisfactory to it against all expense and liability be furnished. The
Deposit Agreement contains various other exculpatory, indemnification and related provisions, to which reference is hereby made. Anything herein or in the Deposit Agreement notwithstanding, in no
event shall the Depositary be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Depositary has been advised
of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 

        18.  Resignation and Removal of Depositary. The Depositary may at any time (i) resign by written notice of its election
to do so delivered to the Company, such resignation to take effect upon the appointment of a successor Depositary and such successor's written acceptance of such appointment, or (ii) be removed
by the Company effective upon the appointment of a successor Depositary and such successor's written acceptance of such appointment. 

        19.  Termination of Deposit Agreement. The Deposit Agreement may be terminated by the Company or the Depositary only after
(i) all outstanding Depositary Shares shall have been redeemed or (ii) there shall have been made a final distribution in respect of the Stock in connection with any liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Company and such distribution shall have been distributed to the holders of Receipts representing Depositary Shares. Upon the termination of the Deposit Agreement, the
Company shall be discharged from all obligations thereunder except for its obligations to the Depositary, any Depositary's Agent and any Registrar with respect to indemnification, charges and
expenses. 

        20.  Governing Law. This Depositary Receipt and the Deposit Agreement and all rights hereunder and thereunder and the
provisions hereof and thereof shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without reference to choice or conflict of law principles. 

        The
Depositary is not responsible for the validity of any deposited Stock. The Depositary makes no warranties or representations as to the validity, genuineness or sufficiency of any
Stock at any time deposited with the Depositary under the Deposit Agreement or of the Depositary Shares, as to the validity or sufficiency of the Deposit Agreement, as to the value of the Depositary
Shares or as to any right, title or interest of the Record Holders of the Depositary Receipts representing the Depositary Shares. 

        Mack-Cali
Realty Corporation will furnish without charge to each Depositary Receipt holder who so requests a copy of the Deposit Agreement and the Charter (including the
Articles). Any such request is to be addressed to the Secretary of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, 11 Commerce Drive, Cranford, NJ 07016.

excess, if any, of (i) the aggregate present value as of the date of such redemption of each dollar of principal of such Notes being redeemed and the amount of interest (exclusive of interest
accrued to the date of redemption) that would have been payable in respect of such dollar if such redemption had been made on February 13, 2013, determined by discounting, on a
semi-annual basis, such principal and interest at the Reinvestment Rate (determined on the third Business Day preceding the date such notice of redemption is given) from the respective
dates on which such principal and interest would have been payable if such redemption had been made on February 13, 2013, over (ii) the aggregate principal amount of such Notes being
redeemed. In the case of any redemption of the Notes on or after February 13, 2013, the Make-Whole Premium means zero.

respective headings "This Week" and "Last Week" published in the Statistical Release under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities" for the maturity (rounded to the nearest month) corresponding to
the remaining life to maturity of such Notes (which, in the case of maturities corresponding to the principal and interest due on the Notes at their maturity, shall be deemed to be February 13,
2013), as of the payment date of the principal of such Notes being redeemed. If no maturity exactly corresponds to such maturity, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to
such maturity shall be calculated pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and the Reinvestment Rate shall be obtained by linear interpolation, rounding in each of such relevant periods to the
nearest month. For such purposes of calculating the Reinvestment Rate, the most recent Statistical Release published prior to the date of determination of the Make-Whole Premium shall be
used. 

        "Statistical Release" means the statistical release designated "H.15(519)" or any successor publication which is published weekly by the
Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States government securities adjusted to constant maturities or, if such statistical release is not published at the time
of any determination of the Make-Whole Premium, then such other reasonably comparable index which shall be designated by the Issuer. 

        "Subsidiary" means, with respect to any Person, any corporation or other entity of which a majority of the voting power of the voting
equity securities or the outstanding equity interests of which are owned, directly or indirectly, by such Person. For the purposes of this definition, "voting equity securities" means equity

ARTICLE TWO    
    
    THE SERIES OF NOTES    
  

        Section 2.1    Title of the Securities.    

        There
shall be a series of Securities designated the "5.82% Notes due 2013" (the "Notes"). 

        Section 2.2    Limitation on Aggregate Principal Amount.    

        Except
as provided in this Section and in Section 306 of the Original Indenture, (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Notes shall be limited to $26,105,000, and
(ii) the Issuer shall not execute and the Trustee shall not authenticate or deliver Notes in excess of such aggregate principal amount. 

        Nothing
contained in this Section 2.2 or elsewhere in this Supplemental Indenture, or in the Notes, is intended to or shall limit execution by the Issuer or authentication or
delivery by the Trustee of Notes under the circumstances contemplated by Sections 303, 304, 305, 306, 906, 1107 and 1305 of the Original Indenture. Furthermore, the Issuer may from time to time,
without the consent of existing Holders, create and issue further notes having the same terms and conditions in all respects as the Notes issued as of the date hereof pursuant to this Supplemental
Indenture, except for issue date, issue price and the first payment of interest thereon. Additional notes issued in this manner will be consolidated with and will form a single series with the
previously outstanding Notes. 

        Section 2.3    Interest and Interest Rates; Maturity Date of Notes.    

        The
Notes will bear interest at a rate of 5.82% per annum from March 14, 2003 or from the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly
provided for, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2003 (each, an "Interest
Payment Date"), to the Person in whose name such Note is registered at the close of business on March 1 or September 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the
case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date (each, a "Regular Record Date"). Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The interest so payable on any Note which is not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date shall forthwith cease to be
payable to the Person in whose name such Note is registered on the relevant Regular Record Date, and such defaulted interest shall instead be payable to the Person in whose name such Note is
registered on the Special Record Date or other specified date determined in accordance with the Original Indenture. 

        If
any Interest Payment Date or Maturity falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment shall be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such
payment was due 

4

 

and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or Maturity, as the case may be. 

        The
Notes will mature on March 15, 2013. 

        Section 2.4    Limitations on Incurrence of Indebtedness.    

        (a)  The
Issuer will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Indebtedness, other than Intercompany Indebtedness, if, immediately after giving effect to the
incurrence of such additional Indebtedness and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis determined in accordance with GAAP is greater than 60% of the sum of (without duplication) (i) the Total Assets of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the
calendar quarter covered in the Issuer's Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the Commission
(or, if such filing is not permitted under the Exchange Act, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness and (ii) the purchase price of any assets included in the
definition of Total Assets acquired, and the amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire items included in the definition of Total Assets
or used to reduce indebtedness), by the Issuer or any Subsidiary since the end of such calendar quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection with the incurrence of such additional
Indebtedness. 

        (b)  In
addition to the limitation set forth in subsection (a) of this Section 2.4, the Issuer will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any
Indebtedness if the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service to the Annual Service Charge for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which such
additional Indebtedness is to be incurred shall have been less than 1.5:1, on a pro forma basis after giving effect thereto and to the application of
the proceeds therefrom, and calculated on the assumption that (i) such Indebtedness and any other Indebtedness incurred by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries since the first day of such
four-quarter period and the application of the proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other Indebtedness, had occurred at the beginning of such period; (ii) the repayment or
retirement of any other Indebtedness by the Issuer and its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period had been repaid or retired at the beginning of such period (except
that, in making such computation, the amount of Indebtedness under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during such period);
(iii) in the case of Acquired Indebtedness or Indebtedness incurred in connection with any acquisition since the first day of such four-quarter period, the related acquisition had
occurred as of the first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition being included in such pro forma
calculation; and (iv) in the case of any acquisition or disposition by the Issuer or its Subsidiaries of any asset or group of assets since the first day of such four-quarter
period, whether by merger, stock purchase or sale, or asset purchase or sale, such acquisition or disposition or any related repayment of Indebtedness had occurred as of the first day of such period
with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition or disposition being included in such pro forma calculation. 

        (c)  In
addition to the limitations set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 2.4, the Issuer will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to,
incur any Indebtedness secured by any Encumbrance upon any of the property of the Issuer or any Subsidiary, whether owned at the date of the Indenture or thereafter acquired, if, immediately after
giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness secured by an Encumbrance and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Indebtedness of
the Issuer and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis which is secured by any Encumbrance on property of the Issuer or any Subsidiary is greater than 40% of the sum of (without duplication)

        (5)  default
under any bond, debenture, note, mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any indebtedness

responsible or liable as obligor or guarantor), having an aggregate principal amount outstanding of at least $10,000,000, whether such recourse indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created,
which default shall have resulted in such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable, without such indebtedness
having been discharged, or such acceleration having been rescinded or annulled, within a period of 10 days after there shall have been given written notice, by registered or certified mail, to
the Issuer by the Trustee or to the Issuer and the Trustee by the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series specifying such default and requiring
the Issuer to cause such indebtedness to be discharged or cause such acceleration to be rescinded or annulled and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default" hereunder; or

to read as follows: 

        If
an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal (or, if any Securities are Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such portion of
the principal as may be specified in the terms thereof) of all the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by the
Holders), and upon any such
declaration such principal or specified portion thereof shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of any series set forth in Section 501(6)
or (7) of the Original Indenture occurs and is continuing, then in every such case all the Securities of that series shall become immediately due and payable, without notice to the Issuer, at
the principal amount thereof (or, if any Securities are Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such portion of the principal as may be specified in the terms thereof) plus accrued
interest to the date the Securities of that series are paid plus the Make-Whole Premium, if any, on the Securities of that series. 

        Section 2.15    Provision of Financial Information.    

        Whether
or not the Issuer is subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Issuer will, to the extent permitted under the Exchange Act, file with the Commission the
annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which the Issuer would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to such Section 13 or 15(d) if the Issuer were so subject,
such documents to be filed with the 

7

 

Commission on or prior to the respective dates (the "Required Filing Dates") by which the Issuer would have been required so to file such documents if the Issuer were so subject. 

        The
Issuer will also in any event (x) within 15 days of each Required Filing Date (i) if the Issuer is not then subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act, transmit by mail to all Holders, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, without cost to such Holders, copies of the annual reports and quarterly reports which the Issuer
would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if the Issuer were subject to such Sections, and (ii) file with the Trustee
copies of annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which the Issuer would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if the
Issuer were subject to such Sections and (y) if filing such documents by the Issuer with the Commission is not permitted under the Exchange Act, promptly upon written request and payment of the
reasonable cost of duplication and delivery, supply copies of such documents to any prospective Holder. 

        Section 2.16    Waiver of Certain Covenants.    

        Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 1010 of the Original Indenture, the Issuer may omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth
in the Original Indenture and in this Supplemental Indenture and with any other term, provision or condition with respect to the Notes (except any such term, provision or condition which could not be
amended without the consent of all Holders of the Notes), if before or after the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of all Outstanding Notes by Act of such
Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such covenant or condition. Except to the extent so expressly waived, and until such waiver shall become
effective, the obligations of the Issuer and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 

        Section 2.17    No Guaranty by the Corporation.    

        The
Guarantee set forth in Article Sixteen of the Original Indenture shall not be in effect with respect to the Notes.

MACK-CALI REALTY, L.P.  

 5.82% NOTE DUE 2013  

        MACK-CALI REALTY, L.P., a limited partnership duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein referred to as the "Issuer"
which term shall include any Successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, upon presentation,
the principal sum of                        DOLLARS on March 15, 2013, and to pay interest on the outstanding principal
amount thereon from March 14, 2003, or from the immediately preceding
Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 in each year, commencing
September 15, 2003, at the rate of 5.82% per annum, until the entire principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. The interest so payable and punctually paid or duly provided for on
any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest
which shall be the March 1 or September 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly
provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date, and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security is registered at the close of business on a
Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of the Securities not more than 15 days and not less than
10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be
listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Payment of the principal of and interest on this Security will be made at the office or
agency maintained for that purpose in the City of Wilmington, Delaware or elsewhere as provided in the Indenture, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is
legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that at the option of the Issuer payments of principal and interest on the
Notes (other than payments of principal and interest due at Maturity) may be made (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security 

A-1

 

Register or (ii) by wire transfer to an account of the Person entitled thereto located within the United States. 

        Securities
of this series are one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Issuer (herein called the "Securities"), issued and to
be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of March 16, 1999, among the Issuer, Mack-Cali Realty Corporation and Wilmington Trust Company, (herein called the
"Trustee", which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), as supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 1, dated as of
March 16, 1999, as further supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 2, dated as of August 2, 1999, as further supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 3, dated as of
December 21, 2000, as further supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 4, dated as of January 29, 2001, as further supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 5, dated as
of December 20,
2002 and as further supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 6, dated as of March 14, 2003 (as so supplemented, herein called the
"Indenture"), between the Issuer and the Trustee to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of
the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are authenticated
and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated in the first page thereof, limited in aggregate principal amount to $26,105,000, except as the aggregate principal amount may be increased
pursuant to Section 2.2 of Supplemental Indenture No. 6 referred to above. 

        Securities
of this series may be redeemed at any time at the option of the Issuer, in whole or in part, upon notice of not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the
Redemption Date, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon up to but not including the
Redemption Date and (ii) the Make-Whole Premium, if any, with respect to such Securities. 

        The
Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the entire indebtedness of the Issuer on this Security and (b) certain restrictive covenants and the
related defaults and Events of Default applicable to the Issuer, in each case, upon compliance by the Issuer with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, which provisions apply to this
Security. 

        If
an Event of Default with respect to the Securities shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect
provided in the Indenture. 

        As
provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to
the Securities, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute
proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice,
request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any interest on or after
the respective due dates expressed herein. 

        The
Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders
of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of each series of Securities then Outstanding affected thereby. The Indenture also contains 

A-2

 

provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to
waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security
shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu
hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 

        No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay
the principal of (and Make-Whole Premium, if any) and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

        As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security
for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer in any Place of Payment where the principal of (and Make-Whole Premium, if any) and interest on this Security are
payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees. 

        Except
as set forth in Section 302 of the Indenture, the Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral
multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of
this series of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 

        No
service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge
payable in connection therewith. 

        Prior
to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this
Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary. 

        No
recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in the Indenture or in this Security, or because of any indebtedness evidenced hereby or thereby, shall be had
against any
promoter, as such, or against any past, present or future shareholder, officer or director, as such, of the Issuer or of any successor, either directly or through the Issuer or any successor, under
any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and
released by the acceptance of this Security by the Holder thereof and as part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities of this series. 

        All
capitalized terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 

        THE INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES, INCLUDING THIS SECURITY, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK.

        Pursuant
to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused "CUSIP" numbers to be printed on the Securities of this
series as a 

A-3

 

convenience to the Holders of such Securities. No representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of such CUSIP numbers as printed on the Securities, and reliance may be placed only on the
other identification numbers printed hereon. 

        Unless
the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by or on behalf of the Trustee by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the
Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.
