The Notes shall initially be limited to an aggregate principal amount equal to $350,000,000, subject to the exceptions set forth in Section 301(2) of the Base Indenture and Section 1.4(f) hereof.

Section 1.3    Form of Notes. The Notes will be issued in the form of one or more permanent fully registered global securities (the “Global Note”) that will be deposited with, or on behalf of the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, subject to Section 305 of the Base Indenture. So long as the Depository, or its nominee, is the registered owner of the Global Note, the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole Holder of the Notes represented by the Global Note for all purposes under the Indenture.

Section 1.4    Terms and Provisions of Notes. The Notes shall be governed by all of the terms and provisions of the Base Indenture, as supplemented by this Tenth Supplemental Indenture, and in particular, the following provisions shall be terms of the Notes:

(a)Registration and Form. The Notes shall be issuable in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication and shall bear interest from the date specified on the face of the form of Note attached as Exhibit A hereto.

(b)Payment of Principal and Interest. All payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of the Global Notes will be made by the Operating Partnership in immediately available funds to the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, as the Holder of each of the Global Notes. The Notes shall mature, and the unpaid principal thereon, shall be payable, on April 1, 2028, subject to the provisions of the Base Indenture. The rate per annum at which interest shall be payable on the Notes shall be 2.250%. Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually in arrears on each April 1 and October 1, commencing October 1, 2021 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) and on the Stated Maturity as specified in this Section 1.4(b), to the Persons in whose names the Notes are registered in the Security Register applicable to the Notes at the close of business on March 15 for Interest Payment Dates of April 1 and September 15 for Interest Payment Dates of October 1 (in each case, whether or not a Business Day) (each a “Record Date”). Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Interest on the Notes shall accrue from March 5, 2021.

(c)Sinking Fund. There shall be no sinking fund provided for the Notes.

(d)Redemption at the Option of the Operating Partnership.

(1)The Operating Partnership shall have the right to redeem the Notes at its option and in its sole discretion at any time or from time to time prior to the Par Call Date in whole or in part at the Redemption Price specified in the next sentence. The redemption price (“Redemption Price”) will equal the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed that would be due if such Notes matured on the Par Call Date but for the redemption thereof (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points (0.200%), plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that if the Redemption Date falls after a Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Operating Partnership will pay the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Interest Payment Date to the Holder of record at the close of business on the corresponding Record Date (instead of the Holder surrendering its Notes for redemption). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Notes are redeemed on or after the Par Call Date, the Redemption Price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the applicable Redemption Date, subject to the foregoing proviso. In connection with any redemption prior to the Par Call Date, the Operating Partnership shall give the Trustee written notice of the related Redemption Price promptly after the calculation thereof and the Trustee shall not be responsible for such calculation.

(2)The Operating Partnership shall not redeem the Notes pursuant to Section 1.4(d)(1) hereof on any date if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such an acceleration has not been rescinded or annulled on or prior to such date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a default by the Operating Partnership in the payment of the Redemption Price with respect to the Notes to be redeemed).

(e)Payment of Notes Called for Redemption by the Operating Partnership.

(1)If notice of redemption has been given as provided in Article Eleven of the Base Indenture, the Notes or portion of Notes with respect to which such notice has been given shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the place or places stated in such notice at the Redemption Price, and unless the Operating Partnership shall default in the payment of such Notes at the Redemption Price, so long as the Paying Agent holds funds sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of the Notes to be redeemed on the Redemption Date, then (a) such Notes will cease to be Outstanding on and after the Redemption Date, (b) interest on the Notes or portion of Notes so called for redemption shall cease to accrue on and after the Redemption Date, and (c) the Holders of the Notes shall have no right in respect of such Notes except the right to receive the Redemption Price thereof. On presentation and surrender of such Notes at a place of payment in said notice specified, the said Notes or the specified portions thereof shall be paid and redeemed by the Operating Partnership at the Redemption Price, together with interest accrued thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

(2)The Notes will not be convertible or exchangeable for any other security or property.

(f)Additional Issues. The Operating Partnership may, from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, create and issue further securities having the same terms and conditions as the Notes in all respects, except for any difference in the issue date, issue price, interest accrued prior to the issue date of the additional Notes, and, if applicable, the first Interest Payment Date and the initial interest accrual date with the same CUSIP number as the Notes so long as such additional Notes are fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with the previously outstanding Notes. Additional Notes issued in this manner shall be consolidated with and shall form a single series with the previously outstanding Notes.

Section 1.5    Book-Entry Provisions. This Section 1.5 shall apply only to the Global Notes deposited with or on behalf of the Depository.

(a)The Operating Partnership shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section 1.5 and Section 303 of the Base Indenture, authenticate and deliver the Global Notes that shall be registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and shall be held by the Trustee as custodian for the Depository.

(b)Participants of the Depository shall have no rights either under the Indenture or with respect to the Global Notes. The Depository or its nominee, as applicable, shall be treated by the Operating Partnership, the Trustee and any agent of the Operating Partnership or the Trustee as the absolute owner and Holder of each such Global Note for all purposes under the Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Operating Partnership or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or its nominee, as applicable, or impair, as between the Depository and its participants, the operation of customary practices of such depository governing the exercise of the rights of an owner of a beneficial interest in the Global Notes.

In addition to the covenants set forth in the Base Indenture, the Operating Partnership hereby further covenants as follows, the following covenants being for the sole benefit of the Holders of the Notes:

Section 2.1    Limitations on Incurrence of Debt.

(a)Aggregate Debt Test. The Operating Partnership will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, incur any Debt if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt and the application of the proceeds from such Debt on a pro forma basis, the aggregate principal amount of all of the Operating Partnership’s and its Subsidiaries’ outstanding Debt (determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP) is greater than 65% of the sum of the following (without duplication): (1) the Operating Partnership’s and its Subsidiaries’ Total Assets as of the last day of the then most recently ended fiscal quarter for which financial information is available and (2) the aggregate purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the aggregate amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), by the Operating Partnership or any Subsidiary since the end of such fiscal quarter, including the proceeds obtained from the incurrence of such additional Debt.

(b)Secured Debt Test. The Operating Partnership will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, incur any Debt secured by any Lien on any of the Operating Partnership’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ property or assets, whether owned on the date of this Tenth Supplemental Indenture or subsequently acquired, if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt and the application of the proceeds from such Debt on a pro forma basis, the aggregate principal amount (determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP) of all of the Operating Partnership’s and its Subsidiaries’ outstanding Debt which is secured by a Lien on any of the Operating Partnership’s and its Subsidiaries’ property or assets is greater than 40% of the sum of (without duplication): (1) the Operating Partnership’s and its Subsidiaries’ Total Assets as of the last day of the then most recently ended fiscal quarter for which financial information is available; and (2) the aggregate purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the aggregate amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), by the Operating Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries since the end of such fiscal quarter, including the proceeds obtained from the incurrence of such additional Debt.

(c)Debt Service Test.

(1)The Operating Partnership will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, incur any Debt if the ratio of Consolidated EBITDA to Annual Debt Service Charge for the period consisting of the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended for which financial information is available prior to the date on which such additional Debt is to be incurred shall have been less than 1.5:1 on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt and the application of the proceeds from such Debt (determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP), and calculated on the following assumptions:

(A)such Debt and any other Debt incurred by the Operating Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period had been incurred, and the application of the proceeds from such Debt (including to repay or retire other Debt) had occurred, on the first day of such period;

(B)the repayment or retirement of any other Debt of the Operating Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period had occurred on the first day of such period (except that, in making this computation, the amount of Debt under any revolving credit facility, line of credit or similar facility will be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Debt during such period); and

(C)in the case of any acquisition or disposition by the Operating Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries of any asset or group of assets with a fair market value in excess of $5.0 million since the first day of such four-quarter period, whether by merger, stock purchase or sale or asset purchase or sale or otherwise, such acquisition or disposition 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.

(2)If the Debt giving rise to the need to make the calculation described in Section 2.1(c)(1) or any other Debt incurred after the first day of the relevant four-quarter period bears interest at a floating rate, then, for purposes of calculating the Annual Debt Service Charge, the interest rate on such Debt will be computed on a pro forma basis as if the average daily rate which would have been in effect during the entire four-quarter period had been the applicable rate for the entire such period. For purposes of this Section 2.1(c), Debt will be deemed to be incurred by the Operating Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries whenever the Operating Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries shall create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable in respect thereof.

(d)Maintenance of Total Unencumbered Assets. The Operating Partnership will not have at any time Total Unencumbered Assets of less than 150% of the aggregate principal amount of all of the Operating Partnership’s and its Subsidiaries’ outstanding Unsecured Debt determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP.

Section 2.2    Maintenance of Properties. The Operating Partnership will cause all of its material properties used or useful in the conduct of its business or any of its Subsidiaries’ businesses to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order, normal wear and tear, casualty and condemnation excepted, and supplied with all necessary equipment and cause all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements to be made, all as in the Operating Partnership’s judgment may be necessary in order for the Operating Partnership to at all times properly and advantageously conduct its business carried on in connection with such properties. The Operating Partnership will not be prevented from (1) removing permanently any property that has been condemned or suffered a casualty loss, if it is in its best interests, (2) discontinuing maintenance or operation of any property if, in its reasonable judgment, doing so is in its best interest and is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes, or (3) selling or otherwise disposing for value its properties in the ordinary course of business.

Section 2.3    Insurance. The Operating Partnership will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, keep in force upon all of the Operating Partnership’s and each of its Subsidiaries’ properties and operations insurance policies carried with responsible companies in such amounts and covering all such risks as is customary in the industry in which the Operating Partnership and its Subsidiaries do business in accordance with prevailing market conditions and availability.

Section 2.4    Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. The Operating Partnership will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged before it becomes delinquent: (i) all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed on the

Operating Partnership or any of its Subsidiaries or on its or any such Subsidiary’s income, profits or property; and (ii) all material lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies that, if unpaid, might by law become a Lien upon its property or the property of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Operating Partnership will not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any tax, assessment, charge or claim the amount, applicability or validity of which is being contested in good faith.

Section 2.5    Covenant Defeasance and Waiver of Covenant. The covenants set forth in Sections 2.1, Section 2.2, Section 2.3 and Section 2.4 shall be subject to covenant defeasance under Section 402(3) of the Base Indenture and subject to waiver under Section 1006 thereof.

Section 4.1    Trustee. The Trustee is appointed as the principal paying agent, transfer agent and registrar for the Notes and for the purposes of Section 1002 of the Base Indenture. The Notes may be presented for payment at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at any other agency as may be appointed from time to time by the Operating Partnership in The City of New York. The Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Tenth Supplemental Indenture or the due execution hereof by the Operating Partnership. The recitals of fact contained herein shall be taken as the statements solely of the Operating Partnership, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness thereof.

Section 4.2    Preferential Collection of Claims. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Operating Partnership (or any other obligor upon the Notes), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of the claims against the Operating Partnership (or any such other obligor). The Trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions with the Operating Partnership and its Affiliates. If, however, it acquires any conflicting interest under the Trust Indenture Act relating to any of its duties with respect to the Notes, it must eliminate that conflict or resign, subject to its right under the Trust Indenture Act to seek a stay of its duty to resign.

Section 4.3    Calculation with Respect to the Notes. Except as explicitly specified otherwise herein with respect to the Quotation Agent, the Operating Partnership shall be responsible for making all calculations required under this Tenth Supplemental Indenture or with respect to the Notes. The Operating Partnership will make such calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, the Operating Partnership’s calculations will be final and binding on the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes. The Operating Partnership shall provide a schedule of its calculations to the Trustee promptly after it makes such calculations, and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon the accuracy of the Operating Partnership’s calculations without independent verification. The Trustee shall forward the Operating Partnership’s calculations to any Holder of the Notes upon request.

Section 5.1    Ratification of Base Indenture. This Tenth Supplemental Indenture is executed and shall be construed as an indenture supplemental to the Base Indenture, and as supplemented and modified hereby, the Base Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed, and the Base Indenture and this Tenth Supplemental Indenture shall be read, taken and construed as one and the same instrument.

If an officer of the Company whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time such Security is authenticated, such Note shall be valid nevertheless. A Note shall not be valid or obligatory, or entitled to any benefit under the Base Indenture, unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for in the Base Indenture executed by manual, facsimile, pdf or electronic signature by the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent. The manual, facsimile, pdf or electronic signature of the Trustee shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been authenticated and delivered in accordance with the terms of the Base Indenture and is entitled to the benefits of the Base Indenture. Any electronic

signature hereof shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signature and Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Defined terms used but not otherwise defined in this Note shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5), 501(6) or 501(7) of the Base Indenture) occurs and is continuing, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes may be declared to be due and payable by either the Trustee or the Holders of at least twenty five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and, upon said declaration the same shall be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5), 501(6) or 501(7) of the Base Indenture occurs, the principal of and premium, if any, and interest accrued and unpaid on all the Notes shall be immediately and automatically due and payable without necessity of further action.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Issuer and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, to execute supplemental indentures adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture with respect to the Notes or modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes, subject to exceptions set forth in Section 902 of the Base Indenture. Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, waive any past default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes, subject to exceptions set forth in the Indenture.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall impair, as among the Issuer and the Holder of the Notes, the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, on and interest on this Note at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the coin or currency herein and in the Indenture prescribed.

At the office or agency of the Issuer referred to on the face hereof, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, without payment of any service charge but with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, Notes may be transferred or may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of any other authorized denominations.

The Issuer shall have the right to redeem the Notes under certain circumstances as set forth in Section 1.4(d) of the Tenth Supplemental Indenture and Article Eleven of Base Indenture.

The Notes are not subject to redemption through the operation of any sinking fund.
