Ladies and Gentlemen:

     MEDICAL PROPERTIES TRUST, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), and MPT OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and majority owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Operating Partnership” and together with the Company, the “Transaction Entities”), confirm their agreement (this “Agreement”) with KEYBANC CAPITAL MARKETS INC. (“KBCM”), as follows:

     Section 1. Issuance and Sale of Securities.

          The Company agrees that, from time to time during the term of this Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, it may issue and sell through KBCM, acting as agent and/or principal, shares (the “Securities”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) having an aggregate offering price of up to $50,000,000 (the “Maximum Amount”). The Company agrees that if KBCM determines that KBCM will purchase any Securities on a principal basis, then the Company will enter into a separate underwriting or similar agreement in form and substance satisfactory to both the Company and KBCM covering such purchase. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties hereto agree that compliance with the limitation set forth in this Section 1 on maximum aggregate sale price of Securities issued and sold under this Agreement shall be the sole responsibility of the Company, and KBCM shall have no obligation in connection with such compliance. The issuance and sale of Securities through KBCM will be effected pursuant to the Registration Statement (as defined below) filed by the Company and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), although nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring the Company to use the Registration Statement to issue Securities.

     The Company has filed, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “Securities Act Regulations”), with the Commission a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-

140433), including a base prospectus, relating to certain securities, including the Securities to be issued from time to time by the Company, and which incorporates by reference documents that the Company has filed or will file in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “Exchange Act Regulations”). The Company has prepared a prospectus supplement specifically relating to the Securities (the “Prospectus Supplement”) to the base prospectus included as part of such registration statement. The Company will furnish to KBCM, for use by KBCM, copies of the prospectus included as part of such registration statement, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, relating to the Securities. Except where the context otherwise requires, such registration statement, as amended when it became effective, including all documents filed as part thereof or incorporated by reference therein, and including any information contained in a Prospectus (as defined below) subsequently filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act Regulations or deemed to be a part of such registration statement pursuant to Rule 430B of the Securities Act Regulations, is herein called the “Registration Statement.” The Registration Statement at the time it originally became effective is herein called the “Original Registration Statement.” The base prospectus, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, included in the Registration Statement, as it may be supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, in the form in which such prospectus and/or Prospectus Supplement have most recently been filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act Regulations, together with the then issued Issuer Free Writing Prospectus(es), is herein called the “Prospectus.” Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein, and any reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing after the execution hereof of any document with the Commission deemed to be incorporated by reference therein. For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or to any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed to include any copy filed with the Commission via EDGAR (other than in connection with any opinion given by counsel in Section 7 hereof, which hereby expressly excludes any copy filed via EDGAR).

     Any reference herein to the registration statement, the Registration Statement, any Prospectus Supplement, Prospectus or any Free Writing Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents, if any, incorporated by reference therein (the “Incorporated Documents”), including, unless the context otherwise requires, the documents, if any, filed as exhibits to such Incorporated Documents. Any reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement, any Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus or any Free Writing Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of any document under the Exchange Act on or after the initial effective date of the Registration Statement, or the date of Prospectus Supplement, Prospectus or such Free Writing Prospectus, as the case may be, and incorporated therein by reference.

     Section 2. Placements.

          Each time that the Company wishes to issue and sell the Securities hereunder (each, a “Placement”), it will notify KBCM by email notice (or other method mutually agreed to

in writing by the parties) containing the parameters in accordance with which it desires the Securities to be sold, which shall at a minimum include the number of Securities to be issued (the “Placement Securities”), the time period during which sales are requested to be made, any limitation on the number of Securities that may be sold in any one day and any minimum price per share below which sales may not be made (a “Placement Notice”), a form of which containing such necessary minimum sales parameters is attached hereto as Exhibit A. The Placement Notice shall originate from any of the individuals from the Company set forth on Exhibit B (with a copy to each of the other individuals from the Company listed on such schedule), and shall be addressed to each of the individuals from KBCM set forth on Exhibit B, as such Exhibit B may be amended from time to time. The Placement Notice shall be effective upon receipt by KBCM unless and until (1) in accordance with the notice requirements set forth in the second sentence of this paragraph, KBCM declines to accept the terms contained therein for any reason, in its sole discretion, (2) the entire amount of the Placement Securities have been sold, (3) in accordance with the notice requirements set forth in the second sentence of this paragraph, the Company suspends or terminates the Placement Notice, (4) the Company issues a subsequent Placement Notice with parameters superseding those on the earlier dated Placement Notice, (5) the Agreement has been terminated under the provisions of Section 13 or (6) either party shall have suspended the sale of the Placement Securities in accordance with Section 4 below. The amount of any discount, commission or other compensation to be paid by the Company to KBCM in connection with the sale of the Placement Securities shall be calculated in accordance with the terms set forth in Exhibit C. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that neither the Company nor KBCM will have any obligation whatsoever with respect to a Placement or any Placement Securities unless and until the Company delivers a Placement Notice to KBCM and KBCM does not decline the terms of such Placement Notice pursuant to the terms set forth above, and then only upon the terms specified therein and herein. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Section 2 and the terms of a Placement Notice, the terms of the Placement Notice will control.

     Section 3. Sale of Placement Securities by KBCM.

          Subject to the provisions of Section 6(a), KBCM, for the period specified in the Placement Notice, will use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices an applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), to sell the Placement Securities up to the amount specified, and otherwise in accordance with the terms of such Placement Notice.

Subject to the terms of the Placement Notice, KBCM may sell Placement Securities by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act Regulations, including without limitation sales made directly on the NYSE, on any other existing trading market for the Common Stock or to or through a market maker. Subject to the terms of a Placement Notice, KBCM may also sell

Placement Securities by any other method permitted by law, including but not limited to in privately negotiated transactions.

Each of the parties agrees that no such notice under this Section 4 shall be effective against the other unless it is made to one of the individuals named on Exhibit B hereto, as such exhibit may be amended from time to time.

          (a) Sale of Placement Securities. On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, upon KBCM’s acceptance of the terms of a Placement Notice, and unless the sale of the Placement

Securities described therein has been declined, suspended, or otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, KBCM, for the period specified in the Placement Notice, will use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to sell such Placement Securities up to the amount specified, and otherwise in accordance with the terms of such Placement Notice. Each of the Transaction Entities acknowledges and agrees that (i) there can be no assurance that KBCM will be successful in selling Placement Securities, (ii) KBCM will incur no liability or obligation to the Transaction Entities or any other person or entity if it does not sell Placement Securities for any reason other than a failure by KBCM to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations to sell such Placement Securities as required under this Agreement and (iii) KBCM shall be under no obligation to purchase Securities on a principal basis pursuant to this Agreement, except as otherwise agreed by KBCM and the Transaction Entities.

          (b) Settlement of Placement Securities. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Placement Notice, settlement for sales of Placement Securities will occur on the third (3^rd) Trading Day (or such earlier day as is industry practice for regular-way trading) following the date on which such sales are made (each, a “Settlement Date”). The amount of proceeds to be delivered to the Company on a Settlement Date against receipt of the Placement Securities sold (the “Net Proceeds”) will be equal to the aggregate sales price received by KBCM at which such Placement Securities were sold, after deduction for (i) KBCM’s commission, discount or other compensation for such sales payable by the Company pursuant to Section 2 hereof, and (ii) any transaction fees imposed by any governmental or self-regulatory organization in respect of such sales.

On each Settlement Date, KBCM will deliver the related Net Proceeds in same day funds to an account designated by the Company on, or prior to, the Settlement Date. The Company agrees that if the Company, or its transfer agent (if applicable), defaults in its obligation to deliver Placement Securities on a Settlement Date, the Company agrees that in addition to and in no way limiting the rights and obligations set forth in Section 10(a) hereto, it will (i) hold KBCM harmless against any loss, claim, damage, or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out of or in connection with such default by the Company or its transfer agent (if applicable) and (ii) pay to KBCM any commission, discount, or other compensation to which it would otherwise have been entitled absent such default.

          (d) Denominations; Registration. Certificates for the Securities, if any, shall be in such denominations and registered in such names as KBCM may request in writing at least one full business day before the Settlement Date. The certificates for the Securities, if any, will

          (e) Limitations on Offering Size.

Under no circumstances shall the Company cause or request the offer or sale of any Securities at a price lower than the minimum price authorized from time to time by the Company’s board of directors, duly authorized committee thereof or a duly authorized executive committee, and notified to KBCM in writing. Further, under no circumstances shall the aggregate offering amount of Securities sold pursuant to this Agreement, including any separate underwriting or similar agreement covering principal transactions described in Section 1 of this Agreement, exceed the Maximum Amount.

          (f) The Company agrees that any offer to sell, any solicitation of an offer to buy, or any sales of Securities shall only be effected by or through KBCM on any single given day; provided, however, that (1) the foregoing limitation shall not apply to (i) the exercise of any option, warrant, right or any conversion privilege set forth in the instrument governing such security or (ii) sales solely to employees or security holders of the Company or its Subsidiaries, or to a trustee or other person acquiring such securities for the accounts of such persons, and (2) such limitation shall not apply on any day during which no sales are made pursuant to this Agreement.

     Section 7. Covenants of the Company and the Operating Partnership.

          Each of the Transaction Entities covenants with KBCM as follows:

          (a) Registration Statement Amendments; Payment of Fees. After the date of this Agreement and during any period in which a Prospectus relating to any Placement Securities is required to be delivered by KBCM. under the Securities Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the Securities Act), (i) to the extent that such information is not filed via EDGAR, the Company will notify KBCM promptly of the time when any subsequent amendment to the Registration Statement, other than documents incorporated by reference, has been filed with the Commission and/or has become effective or any subsequent supplement to the Prospectus has been filed and of any comment letter from the Commission or any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information; (ii) the Company will not file any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus, other than documents incorporated by reference, relating to the Placement Securities or a security convertible into the Placement Securities unless a copy thereof has been submitted to KBCM within a reasonable period of time before the filing and KBCM has not reasonably objected thereto (provided, however, that the failure of KBCM to make such objection shall not relieve

the Company of any obligation or liability hereunder, or affect KBCM’s right to rely on the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement) and the Company will furnish to KBCM at the time of filing thereof a copy of any document that upon filing is deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement or Prospectus, except for those documents available via EDGAR; and (iii) the Company will cause each amendment or supplement to the Prospectus, other than documents incorporated by reference, to be filed with the Commission as required pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act (without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8) of the Securities Act.

          (b) Notice of Commission Stop Orders. The Company will advise KBCM, promptly after it receives notice or obtains knowledge thereof, of the issuance or threatened issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any other order preventing or suspending the use of the Prospectus, of the suspension of the qualification of the Placement Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for any such purpose or any examination pursuant to Section 8(e) of the Securities Act, or if the Company becomes the subject of a proceeding under Section 8A of the Securities Act in connection with the offering of the Securities; and it will promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop or other order or to obtain its withdrawal if such a stop or other order should be issued.

          (c) Delivery of Prospectus; Subsequent Changes. During any period in which a Prospectus relating to the Placement Securities is required to be delivered by KBCM under the Securities Act with respect to a pending sale of the Placement Securities, (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the Securities Act), the Company will comply with all requirements imposed upon it by the Securities Act, as from time to time in force, and to file on or before their respective due dates all reports and any definitive proxy or information statements required to be filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14, 15(d) or any other provision of or under the Exchange Act. If during such period any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then existing, not misleading, or if during such period the Registration Statement ceases to be effective or it is necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act, the Company will promptly notify KBCM to suspend the offering of Placement Securities during such period and the Company will promptly amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus (at the expense of the Company) so as to correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance.

          (d) Listing of Placement Securities. During any period in which the Prospectus relating to the Placement Securities is required to be delivered by KBCM under the Securities Act with respect to a pending sale of the Placement Securities (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the Securities Act), the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Placement Securities to be listed on the Exchange and to qualify the Placement Securities for sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as KBCM reasonably designates and to continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Placement Securities;

provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith to qualify as a foreign entity or dealer in securities or file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction.

          (e) Filings with the Exchange. The Company will timely file with the Exchange all material documents and notices required by the Exchange of companies that have or will issue securities that are traded on the Exchange.

          (f) Delivery of Registration Statement and Prospectus. The Company will furnish to KBCM and its counsel (at the expense of the Company) copies of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus during any period in which a Prospectus relating to the Placement Securities is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, in each case as soon as reasonably practicable and in such quantities as KBCM may from time to time reasonably request and, at KBCM’s request, will also furnish copies of the Prospectus to each exchange or market on which sales of the Placement Securities may be made; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to furnish any document (other than the Prospectus) to KBCM to the extent such document is available on EDGAR. The copies of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and any supplements or amendments thereto furnished to KBCM will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.

          (g) Earnings Statement. The Company will make generally available to its security holders as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than 15 months after the end of the Company’s current fiscal quarter, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) covering a 12-month period that satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) and Rule 158 of the Securities Act. “Earnings statement” and “make generally available” will have the meanings contained in Rule 158 under the Securities Act.

          (h) Blue Sky and Other Qualifications. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts, in cooperation with KBCM, to qualify the Placement Securities for offering and sale, or to obtain an exemption for the Securities to be offered and sold, under the applicable securities laws of such states and other jurisdictions (domestic or foreign) as KBCM may designate and to maintain such qualifications and exemptions in effect for so long as required for the distribution of the Securities (but in no event for less than one year from the date of this Agreement); provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject. In each jurisdiction in which the Placement Securities have been so qualified or exempt, the Company will file such statements and reports as may be required by the laws of such jurisdiction to continue such qualification or exemption, as the case may be, in effect for so long as required for the distribution of the Placement Securities (but in no event for less than one year from the date of this Agreement).

          (i) Use of Proceeds. The Company will apply the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities to be sold by it hereunder in accordance in all material respects with the statements under the caption “Use of Proceeds” in the Prospectus.

          (j) Notice of Other Sales. During the pendency of any Placement Notice given hereunder, the Company shall provide KBCM notice as promptly as reasonably possible before it offers to sell, contracts to sell, sells, grants any option to sell or otherwise disposes of any shares of Common Stock (other than Placement Securities offered pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement) or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, warrants or any rights to purchase or acquire Common Stock; provided, that such notice shall not be required in connection with the (i) issuance, grant or sale of Common Stock, options to purchase Common Stock or Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of options or other equity awards pursuant to any stock option, stock bonus or other stock or compensatory plan or arrangement described in the Prospectus, (ii) the issuance of securities in connection with an acquisition, merger or sale or purchase of assets, (iii) the issuance or sale of Common Stock pursuant to any dividend reinvestment plan that the Company may adopt from time to time provided the implementation of such is disclosed to KBCM in advance, or (iv) any Common Stock issuable upon the redemption of outstanding OP Units in accordance with the Operating Partnership Agreement. To the extent requested in writing by the Company, KBCM shall keep notices provided under this Section 7(j) confidential.

          (k) Change of Circumstances. The Company will, at any time during a fiscal quarter in which the Company intends to tender a Placement Notice or sell Placement Securities, advise KBCM promptly after it shall have received notice or obtained knowledge thereof, of any information or fact that would alter or affect in any material respect any opinion, certificate, letter, comfort letter or the like provided to KBCM pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement.

          (l) Due Diligence Cooperation. The Company and the Operating Partnership will cooperate with any reasonable due diligence review conducted by KBCM or its agents in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, providing information and making available documents and senior officers, during regular business hours and at the Company’s principal offices, as KBCM may reasonably request.

          (m) Required Filings Relating to Placement of Placement Securities. The Company agrees that on such dates as the Securities Act shall require, the Company will (i) file a prospectus supplement with the Commission under the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, which prospectus supplement will set forth, within the relevant period, the amount of Placement Securities sold through KBCM, the Net Proceeds to the Company and the compensation payable by the Company to KBCM with respect to such Placement Securities, and (ii) deliver such number of copies of each such prospectus supplement to each exchange or market on which such sales were effected as may be required by the rules or regulations of such exchange or market.

          (n) Representation Dates; Certificate. On the date of this Agreement and each time the Company:

     (i) files the Prospectus relating to the Securities or amends or supplements (other than a prospectus supplement relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Securities) the Registration Statement or the Prospectus relating to the Securities by means of a post-effective amendment, sticker, or supplement but not by means of incorporation of documents by reference into the Registration Statement or the Prospectus relating to the Securities;

     (ii) files an annual report on Form 10-K under the Exchange Act (including any Form 10-K/A containing amended financial information for the Company or a material amendment to the previously filed Form 10-K (a material amendment shall not include any Form 10-K/A filed solely for the purposes of providing financial statements for significant tenants));

     (iii) files its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q under the Exchange Act; or

     (iv) files a current report on Form 8-K containing amended financial information (other than information “furnished” pursuant to Items 2.02 or 7.01 of Form 8-K or to provide disclosure pursuant to Item 8.01 of Form 8-K relating to the reclassification of certain properties as discontinued operations in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144) under the Exchange Act, or

     the Company shall furnish KBCM with a certificate, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F within three (3) Trading Days of any Representation Date. The requirement to provide a certificate under this Section 7(n) shall be waived for any Representation Date occurring at a time at which no Placement Notice is pending, which waiver shall continue until the earlier to occur of the date the Company delivers a Placement Notice hereunder (which for such calendar quarter shall be considered a Representation Date) and the next occurring Representation Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company subsequently decides to sell Placement Securities following a Representation Date when the Company relied on such waiver and did not provide KBCM with a certificate under this Section 7(n), then before the Company delivers the Placement Notice or KBCM sells any Placement Securities, the Company shall provide KBCM with a certificate, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F, dated the date of the Placement Notice.

          (o) Legal Opinion. (1) On the date of this Agreement and (2) within three (3) Trading Days of each Representation Date with respect to which the Company is obligated to deliver a certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F for which no waiver is applicable, the Company shall cause to be furnished to KBCM a written opinion of Goodwin Procter LLP (“Company Counsel”) and Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell & Berkowitz, P.C.

then amended or supplemented; provided, however, that in lieu of such opinions for subsequent Representation Dates, counsel may furnish KBCM with a letter (a “Reliance Letter”) to the effect that KBCM may rely on a prior opinion delivered under this Section 7(o) to the same extent as if it were dated the date of such letter (except that statements in such prior opinion shall be deemed to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended or supplemented at such Representation Date).

          (p) Agent Counsel Legal Opinion. (1) On the date of this Agreement and (2) within three (3) Trading Days of each Representation Date with respect to which the Company is obligated to deliver a certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F for which no waiver is applicable, KBCM shall have received the favorable opinion of DLA Piper LLP (US), counsel to KBCM, dated as of such date, in customary form and substance satisfactory to KBCM, and the Company shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they reasonably request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters.

          (q) Comfort Letter. (1) On the date of this Agreement and (2) within three (3) Trading Days of each Representation Date with respect to which the Company is obligated to deliver a certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F for which no waiver is applicable, the Company shall cause its independent accountants (and/or any other independent accountants whose report is included in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus) to furnish KBCM letters (the “Comfort Letters”), dated the date of the Comfort Letter is delivered, in form and substance satisfactory to KBCM, (i) confirming that they are an independent registered public accounting firm within the meaning of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the PCAOB, (ii) stating, as of such date, the conclusions and findings of such firm with respect to the financial information and other matters ordinarily covered by accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters in connection with registered public offerings (the first such letter, the “Initial Comfort Letter”) and (iii) updating the Initial Comfort Letter with any information that would have been included in the Initial Comfort Letter had it been given on such date and modified as necessary to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented to the date of such letter.

          (r) REIT Treatment. The Company will use its reasonable efforts to enable the Company to continue to meet the requirements to qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Code for subsequent tax years that include any portion of the term of this Agreement except as otherwise determined by the Board of Directors of the Company to be in the best interests of stockholders.

          (s) Investment Company Act. The Company will in the future use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Company and the Operating Partnership will not be an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

          (t) Securities Act and Exchange Act. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all requirements imposed upon it by the Securities Act and the Exchange Act as from time to time in force, so far as necessary to permit the continuance of

sales of, or dealings in, the Placement Securities as contemplated by the provisions hereof and the Prospectus.

          (u) No Offer to Sell. Other than a free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) approved in advance in writing by the Company and KBCM in its capacity as principal or agent hereunder, neither KBCM nor the Company (including its agents and representatives, other than KBCM in its capacity as such) will, directly or indirectly, make, use, prepare, authorize, approve or refer to any free writing prospectus relating to the Securities to be sold by KBCM as principal or agent hereunder.

          (v) Regulation M. If the Company has reason to believe that the exemptive provisions set forth in Rule 101(c)(1) of Regulation M under the Exchange Act are not satisfied with respect to the Company or the Common Stock, it shall promptly notify KBCM and sales of the Placement Securities under this Agreement shall be suspended until that or other exemptive provisions have been satisfied in the judgment of each party.

          (w) Transfer Agent. The Company shall maintain, at its expense, a registrar and transfer agent for the Common Stock.

          (x) Disclosure of Sales. The Company will disclose in its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and in its annual report on Form 10-K the number of Placement Securities sold through KBCM during the relevant quarter.

          (y) Market Stabilization. The Company will not, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its officers, trustees and affiliates not to, (i) take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to stabilize or manipulate the price of any security of the Company, or which may cause or result in, or which might in the future reasonably be expected to cause or result in, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company, to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Securities, (ii) sell, bid for, purchase or pay anyone any compensation for soliciting purchases of the Securities during the pendency of any Placement Notice or (iii) pay or agree to pay to any person any compensation for soliciting any order to purchase any other securities of the Company during the pendency of any Placement Notice; provided, however, that upon consent of KBCM the Company may bid for and purchase Common Stock in accordance with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act.

          (z) Listing. During any period in which the Prospectus relating to the Placement Securities is required to be delivered by KBCM under the Securities Act with respect to a pending sale of the Placement Securities (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the Securities Act), the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Placement Securities to be listed on the NYSE.

          (aa) Available Shares. The Company will ensure that there are at all times sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide for the issuance, free of any preemptive rights, out its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, of the Maximum Amount.

     Section 8. Payment of Expenses.

     (a) Expenses. The Company will pay all expenses incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including (i) the preparation, filing, including any fees required by the Commission, and printing of the Registration Statement (including financial statements and exhibits) as originally filed and of each amendment and supplement thereto, in such number as KBCM shall deem necessary, (ii) the printing and delivery to KBCM of this Agreement and such other documents as may be required in connection with the offering, purchase, sale, issuance or delivery of the Placement Securities, (iii) the preparation, issuance and delivery of the certificates, if any, for the Placement Securities to KBCM, including any stock or other transfer taxes and any capital duties, stamp duties or other duties or taxes payable upon the sale, issuance or delivery of the Placement Securities to KBCM, (iv) the fees and disbursements of the counsel, accountants and other advisors to the Company, (v) the qualification or exemption of the Placement Securities under state securities laws in accordance with the provisions of Section 7(e) hereof, including filing fees (provided, however, any fees or disbursements of counsel for KBCM in connection therewith shall be paid by KBCM), (vi) the printing and delivery to KBCM of copies of any permitted Free Writing Prospectus and the Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto in such number as KBCM shall deem necessary, (vii) the preparation, printing and delivery to KBCM of copies of the blue sky survey and any Canadian “wrapper” and any supplements thereto, in such number as KBCM shall deem necessary, (viii) the fees and expenses of the transfer agent and registrar for the Securities, (ix) the filing fees incident to any review by FINRA of the terms of the sale of the Securities, (x) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Placement Securities on the NYSE.

     Section 10. Indemnification.

          (a) Indemnification by the Transaction Entities. The Transaction Entities, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless KBCM, its partners, members, directors, officers, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls KBCM within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act as follows:

               (i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in any related Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

               (ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, joint or several, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 10(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Transaction Entities, which consent shall not unreasonably be delayed or withheld; and

               (iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the fees and disbursements of counsel), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or

omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above,

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made solely in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by KBCM expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or in any related Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto).

          (b) Indemnification by KBCM. KBCM agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Transaction Entity, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Transaction Entities within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in subsection (a) of this Section 10, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) solely in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by KBCM expressly for use therein.

          (c) Actions against Parties; Notification. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 10 or Section 11 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (1) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (2) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

          (d) Settlement Without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 10(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (1) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (2) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (3) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

     Section 11. Contribution.

     If the indemnification provided for in Section 10 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (1) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Transaction Entities on the one hand and KBCM on the other hand from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or (2) if the allocation provided by clause (1) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (1) above but also the relative fault of the Transaction Entities on the one hand and of KBCM on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses.

     The relative benefits received by the Transaction Entities on the one hand and KBCM on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total Net Proceeds from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Transaction Entities bear to the total discount, commissions or other compensation received by KBCM.

     The relative fault of the Transaction Entities on the one hand and KBCM on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Transaction Entities or by KBCM and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

     The Transaction Entities and KBCM agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 11 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 11. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 11 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

     Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11, KBCM shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the discount, commission or other compensation received by KBCM hereunder.

     No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

     For purposes of this Section 11, each person, if any, who controls KBCM within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as KBCM, and each director of the Transaction Entities, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Transaction Entities within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Transaction Entities.

     Section 12. Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery.

     All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in certificates of officers of the Transaction Entities or any of its Subsidiaries submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of KBCM or controlling person, or by or on behalf of the Transaction Entities, and shall survive delivery of the Securities to KBCM.

     Section 13. Termination of Agreement.

          (a) Termination; General. KBCM may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company, as hereinafter specified at any time (1) if there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the date as of which information is given in the Prospectus, any change, or any development or event involving a prospective change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the business, properties, earnings, results of operations or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, which individually or in the aggregate, in the sole judgment of KBCM is material and adverse and makes it impractical or inadvisable to market the Securities or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Securities, (2) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or the international financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of KBCM, impracticable or inadvisable to market the Securities or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Securities, (3) if trading in the Placement Securities has been suspended or limited by the Commission or the NYSE, or if trading generally on the NYSE has been suspended or limited, or minimum prices for trading have been fixed on the NYSE, (4) if any suspension of trading of any securities of the Company on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market shall have occurred and be continuing, (5) if a major disruption of securities settlements or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred and be continuing, or (6) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either U.S. Federal or New York authorities.

          (b) Termination by the Transaction Entities. The Transaction Entities shall have the right, by giving ten (10) days notice as hereinafter specified to terminate this Agreement in their sole discretion at any time after the date of this Agreement.

          (c) Termination by KBCM. KBCM shall have the right, by giving ten (10) days notice as hereinafter specified to terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion at any time after the date of this Agreement.

          (d) Automatic Termination. Unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Section 13, this Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the issuance and sale of the Maximum Amount of Securities through KBCM pursuant to this Agreement.

          (e) Continued Force and Effect. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect unless terminated pursuant to Sections 9(k), 13(a), (b), (c), or (d) above or otherwise by mutual agreement of the parties.

          (f) Effectiveness of Termination. Any termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of termination; provided, however, that such termination shall not be effective until the close of business on the date specified in such notice by KBCM or the Transaction Entities, as the case may be. If such termination shall occur prior to the Settlement Date for any sale of Placement Securities, such Placement Securities shall settle in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

          (g) Liabilities.
