Description of Securities

As of February 27, 2020, Diversified Healthcare Trust (formerly known as Senior Housing Properties Trust) (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) had three classes of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”): (i) Common Shares of Beneficial Interest, $.01 par value per share (“common shares”); (ii) 5.625% Senior Notes due 2042; and (iii) 6.25% Senior Notes due 2046. Each of the Company’s securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act are listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”).

The following description of the terms of our shares of beneficial interest is a summary only. This summary is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Company’s declaration of trust and bylaws and applicable Maryland law, including but not limited to provisions of Maryland law applicable to Maryland real estate investment trusts (the “Maryland REIT Law”). The Company’s declaration of trust and bylaws are filed as exhibits to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our declaration of trust authorizes us to issue up to an aggregate of 300,000,000 shares of beneficial interest, all of which are currently designated as common shares. As of February 27, 2020, we had 237,895,225 common shares issued and outstanding. As of February 27, 2020, no other class or series of shares of beneficial interest has been established and is outstanding.

Our declaration of trust contains a provision permitting our Board of Trustees, without any action by our shareholders, to amend our declaration of trust to increase or decrease the total number of shares of beneficial interest or the number of shares of any class or series that we have authority to issue. Our declaration of trust further authorizes our Board of Trustees to reclassify any unissued shares from time to time by setting the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications or terms or conditions of redemption of our shares of beneficial interest or any new class or series of shares created by our Board of Trustees.

Voting rights. Subject to the provisions of our declaration of trust regarding the restriction on the transfer of shares of beneficial interest, each outstanding common share entitles the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders, including the election of Trustees. Holders of our common shares do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of Trustees. Whenever shareholders are required or permitted to take any action by a vote, the action may only be taken by a vote at a shareholders meeting. Under our bylaws, shareholders do not have the right to take any action by written consent. With respect to matters brought before a meeting of shareholders other than the election of Trustees, except where a different voting standard is required by any applicable law, the listing requirements of the principal securities exchange on which our common shares are listed or a specific provision of our declaration of trust or bylaws, 75% of all common shares entitled to vote at the meeting shall be required to approve the matter unless such matter has been previously approved by our Board of Trustees, in which case the vote required for approval is a majority of votes cast at the meeting.

Under our declaration of trust, subject to the provisions of any class or series of our shares then outstanding, our shareholders are entitled to vote on the following matters: (1) the election of Trustees and the removal of Trustees; (2) any amendment to our declaration of trust; (3) termination of the Trust; (4) merger or consolidation of the Trust to the extent required by Title 8 of the Maryland General Corporation Law (the “MGCL”), or the sale or disposition of substantially all our assets, in each case, to the extent a shareholder vote is required under the Maryland REIT Law, provided that such action has first been approved by our Board of Trustees; and (5) such other matters with respect to which our Board of Trustees has adopted a resolution declaring that a proposed action is advisable and directing that the matter be submitted to our shareholders for approval or ratification. Our shareholders will also be entitled to vote on such matters as may be required by our declaration of trust, bylaws or applicable law.

Under the Maryland REIT Law, a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”) generally cannot dissolve, amend its declaration of trust, convert or merge unless these actions are approved by at least two thirds of all shares entitled to be cast on

the matter. The Maryland REIT Law allows a trust's declaration of trust to set a lower percentage, so long as the percentage is not less than a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter. Our declaration of trust provides for approval of any of the foregoing actions (except amendments to certain provisions of the declaration of trust) by a majority of shares entitled to vote on these actions provided the action in question has been approved by a majority of our Board of Trustees. Our declaration of trust further provides that if permitted in the future by Maryland law, the majority required to approve any of the foregoing actions (subject to such exceptions) will be the majority of shares voted. Under the Maryland REIT Law, a declaration of trust may permit the trustees by a two thirds vote to amend the declaration of trust from time to time to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or the Maryland REIT Law without the affirmative vote or written consent of the shareholders. Our declaration of trust permits this type of action by our Board of Trustees.

Board of Trustees. Our Board of Trustees is divided into three classes. At each annual meeting, shareholders elect the successors of the class of Trustees whose term expires at that meeting for a term expiring at the annual meeting held in the third year following the year of their election. The classified board provision could have the effect of making the replacement of incumbent Trustees more time consuming and difficult. At least two annual meetings of shareholders will generally be required to effect a change in a majority of our Board of Trustees.

Except as may be mandated by any applicable law or the listing requirements of the principal exchange on which our common shares are listed, and subject to the voting rights of any class or series of our shares of beneficial interest which may be hereafter created, a plurality of all the votes cast at a meeting of our shareholders duly called and at which a quorum is present shall be sufficient to elect a Trustee.

In case of failure to elect Trustees at an annual meeting of shareholders, the incumbent Trustees will hold over and continue to direct the management of our business and affairs until they resign or their successors are elected and qualify. Any vacancy on our Board of Trustees may be filled only by a majority of the remaining Trustees, even if the remaining Trustees do not constitute a quorum, for the remaining term of the class in which the vacancy exists and until a successor is elected and qualifies. Our declaration of trust and bylaws provide that a Trustee may be removed only for cause, subject to conditions, by the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than two thirds of our common shares entitled to vote in the election of Trustees. This provision precludes shareholders from removing our incumbent Trustees unless for cause and they can obtain the requisite affirmative vote of shares. Under our bylaws, a Trustee may also be removed by the affirmative vote of all the remaining Trustees.

Distribution rights. Subject to the preferential rights of any other class or series of shares then outstanding or which may be issued, and to the ownership restrictions described in our declaration of trust, all of our common shares are entitled to receive distributions on our common shares if, as and when authorized by our Board of Trustees and declared by us out of assets legally available for distribution.

Liquidation rights. Subject to the preferential rights of any other class or series of shares then outstanding or which may be issued, and to the ownership restrictions described in our declaration of trust, all of our common shares are entitled to share ratably in our assets legally available for distribution to our shareholders in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up after payment of or adequate provision for all of our known debts and liabilities.

Registration rights. Some of our shareholders have certain demand registration rights and piggyback and other registration rights with respect to our common shares held by them, as described from time to time in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Other rights and preferences. Holders of our common shares have no preference, conversion, exchange, sinking fund, redemption or appraisal rights, or preemptive rights to subscribe for any of our securities.

Pursuant to our declaration of trust, our Board of Trustees, without any action by our shareholders, may issue preferred shares of beneficial interest (“preferred shares”) from time to time, in one or more classes or series, with the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption of any preferred shares as determined by our Board of Trustees from time to time. The issuance of preferred shares, the issuance of rights to purchase preferred shares or the possibility of the issuance of preferred shares or such rights could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in our control. In addition, the rights of holders of common shares will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of holders of any preferred shares that we have issued or may issue in the future.

Our declaration of trust provides that no person may own, or be deemed to own by virtue of the attribution provisions of the Code, more than 9.8% in value or in number of our outstanding shares or 9.8% in value or in number, whichever is more restrictive, of our outstanding common shares. Our declaration of trust also prohibits (1) any person from beneficially or constructively owning our shares if that ownership would result in us being “closely held” under Section 856(h) of the Code or otherwise cause us to fail to qualify for taxation as a REIT and (2) any person from transferring our shares if the transfer would result in our shares being owned by fewer than 100 persons.

Our Board of Trustees, in its discretion, may exempt a person from the share ownership limitation if (1) it obtains such representations and undertakings from the person who makes a request therefor, as are reasonably necessary to ascertain that no individual’s ownership of shares would result in our being “closely held” under Section 856(h) of the Code or otherwise failing to qualify for taxation as a REIT; (2) such person does not and represents that it will not own, actually or constructively, an interest in one of our tenants (or a tenant of any entity which we own or control) that would cause us to own, actually or constructively, more than a 9.9% interest in the tenant; and (3) such person agrees that any violation or attempted violation of such representations or undertakings (or other action which is contrary to the restrictions contained in our declaration of trust) will result in such shares being automatically transferred to a charitable trust in accordance with our declaration of trust. In connection with any requested exemption, our Board of Trustees may require such rulings from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) or opinions of counsel as it deems advisable in order to determine or ensure our qualification for taxation as a REIT and such representations, undertakings and agreements it deems advisable in order for it to make the foregoing determinations.

In determining whether to grant an exemption, our Board of Trustees may consider, among other factors, the following:

Any attempted transfer of our shares which, if effective, would result in our shares being owned by fewer than 100 persons shall be void ab initio, and the intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such shares.

If a person attempts a transfer of our shares in violation of the ownership limitations described above, then the number of shares which would cause the violation shall (a) be automatically transferred to a charitable trust for the exclusive benefit of one or more charitable beneficiaries designated by us or (b) if such transfer is not effective to prevent the violation of the ownership limitations, be void ab initio. A transfer to the charitable trust will be deemed to be effective as of the close of business on the business day prior to the purported transfer or other event that results in the transfer to the charitable trust. The prohibited owner will not acquire any rights in these excess shares (except to the extent provided below upon sale of the shares), will not benefit economically from ownership of any excess shares, will have no rights to distributions and will not possess any rights to vote.

Shares of beneficial interest held in the trust shall be issued and outstanding shares of beneficial interest. The trustee of the charitable trust shall have all voting rights and rights to distributions with respect to shares of beneficial interest held in the charitable trust, which rights shall be exercised for the exclusive benefit of the charitable beneficiary. Any dividend or other distribution paid prior to the discovery by us that shares of beneficial interest have been transferred to the trustee shall be paid by the recipient of such distribution to the trustee upon demand, and any distribution authorized but unpaid shall be paid when due to the trustee. Any dividend or other distribution so paid to the trustee shall be held in trust for the charitable beneficiary. The prohibited owner shall have no voting rights with respect to shares of beneficial interest held in the trust and, subject to Maryland law, the trustee of the charitable trust will have the authority to rescind as void any vote cast by the proposed transferee prior to our discovery that the shares have been transferred to the trust and to recast the vote in accordance with the desires of the trustee acting for the benefit of the charitable beneficiary. However, if we have already taken irreversible trust action, then the trustee will not have the authority to rescind and recast the vote.

Within 20 days of receiving notice from us that our shares have been transferred to a charitable trust, the trustee will sell the shares held in the charitable trust to a person designated by the trustee whose ownership of the shares will not violate

the ownership limitations set forth in our declaration of trust. Upon this sale, the interest of the charitable beneficiary in the shares sold will terminate and the trustee will distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the prohibited owner and to the charitable beneficiary as follows:

If, prior to our discovery that shares have been transferred to the charitable trust, a prohibited owner sells those shares, then:

Also, shares held in the charitable trust will be offered for sale to us, or our designee, at a price per share equal to the lesser of:

We will have the right to accept the offer until the trustee has sold the shares held in the charitable trust. The net proceeds of the sale to us will be distributed to the prohibited owner.

Any person who acquires or attempts or intends to acquire beneficial or constructive ownership of any shares that will or may violate the foregoing share ownership limitations, or any person who would have owned shares that resulted in a transfer to a charitable trust, is required to immediately give written notice to us of such event, or in the case of such a proposed or attempted transaction, give at least 15 days’ prior written notice, and to provide to us such other information as we may request.

Every owner of more than 5% of our shares is required to give written notice to us within 30 days after the end of each taxable year stating the name and address of the owner, the number of our shares which the owner beneficially owns and a description of the manner in which those shares are held. If the Code or applicable tax regulations specify a threshold below 5%, this notice provision will apply to those persons who own our shares of beneficial interest at the lower percentage. In addition, each shareholder is required to provide us upon demand with any additional information that we may request, in good faith, in order to determine our qualification for taxation as a REIT, to ensure compliance with the foregoing share ownership limitations and determine our compliance with the requirements of any taxing authority or other governmental authority.

The restrictions in our declaration of trust described above will not preclude the settlement of any transaction entered into through the facilities of any national securities exchange or automated interdealer quotation system. Our declaration of trust provides, however, that the fact that the settlement of any transaction occurs will not negate the effect of any of the foregoing limitations and any transferee in this kind of transaction will be subject to all of the provisions and limitations described above.

All certificates evidencing our shares and any share statements for our uncertificated shares may bear legends referring to the foregoing restrictions.

The restrictions on transfer in our declaration of trust are intended to assist with REIT compliance under the Code and otherwise to promote our orderly governance. These restrictions do not apply to our Advisor (as defined in our declaration of trust) or its affiliates.

The MGCL contains a provision which regulates business combinations with interested shareholders. This provision applies to REITs formed under Maryland law like us. Under the MGCL, business combinations such as mergers, consolidations, share exchanges, or, in circumstances specified in the statute, an asset transfer or issuance or reclassification of equity securities between a REIT formed under Maryland law and an interested shareholder or an affiliate of an interested shareholder are prohibited for five years after the most recent date on which the interested shareholder becomes an interested shareholder. Under the MGCL the following persons are deemed to be interested shareholders:

After the five year prohibition period has ended, a business combination between a trust and an interested shareholder generally must be recommended by the board of trustees of the trust and must receive the following shareholder approvals:

The shareholder approvals discussed above are not required if the trust’s shareholders receive the minimum price set forth in the MGCL for their shares and the consideration is received in cash or in the same form as previously paid by the interested shareholder for its shares.

The foregoing provisions of the MGCL do not apply, however, to business combinations that are approved or exempted by our Board of Trustees prior to the time that the interested shareholder becomes an interested shareholder. A person is not an interested shareholder under the statute if the board of trustees approves in advance the transaction by which that shareholder otherwise would have become an interested shareholder. The board of trustees may provide that its approval is subject to compliance with any terms and conditions determined by the board of trustees. Our Board of Trustees has adopted a resolution that any business combination between us and any other person is exempted from the provisions of the MGCL described in the preceding paragraphs, provided that the business combination is first approved by our Board of Trustees, including the approval of a majority of the members of our Board of Trustees who are not affiliates or associates of the interested shareholder. This resolution, however, may be altered or repealed in whole or in part at any time.

Subtitle 8 of Title 3 of the MGCL permits a Maryland REIT with a class of equity securities registered under the Exchange Act and at least three independent trustees to elect to be subject, by provision in its declaration of trust or bylaws or a resolution of its board of trustees and notwithstanding any contrary provision in the declaration of trust or bylaws, to any or all of five provisions:

Through other provisions in our declaration of trust and bylaws unrelated to Subtitle 8, we (1) require the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than two thirds of all of the votes entitled to be cast in the election of such Trustee for the removal of any Trustee from our Board of Trustees, which removal will be allowed only for cause, subject to conditions, (2) vest in our Board of Trustees the exclusive power to fix the number of our Trustees, (3) require that only our Board of Trustees may fill vacancies on our Board of Trustees, and (4) vest in our Board of Trustees the exclusive power to call meetings of our shareholders. We have made an election pursuant to Subtitle 8 to classify our Board of Trustees.

The MGCL contains a provision which regulates control share acquisitions. This provision applies to REITs formed under Maryland law like us. The MGCL provides that control shares of a REIT formed under Maryland law acquired in a control share acquisition have no voting rights except to the extent that the acquisition is approved by a vote of two thirds of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding shares owned by the acquiror, by officers or by trustees who are employees of the trust. Control shares are voting shares, which, if aggregated with all other such shares previously acquired by the acquiror, or in respect of which the acquiror is able to exercise or direct the exercise of voting power (except solely by virtue of a revocable proxy), would entitle the acquiror to exercise voting power in electing trustees within one of the following ranges of voting power:

An acquiror must obtain the necessary shareholder approval each time it acquires control shares in an amount sufficient to cross one of the thresholds noted above.

Control shares do not include shares which the acquiring person is entitled to vote as a result of having previously obtained shareholder approval or shares acquired directly from the company. The MGCL provides for certain exceptions from the definition of control share acquisition.

A person who has made or proposes to make a control share acquisition, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the statute, including an undertaking to pay the expenses of the meeting, may compel the board of trustees of the trust to call a special meeting of shareholders to be held within 50 days of demand to consider the voting rights of the shares. If no request for a meeting is made, the trust may itself present the matter at any shareholders meeting.

If voting rights are not approved at the meeting or if the acquiring person does not deliver an acquiring person statement as required by the MGCL, then the trust may redeem for fair value any or all of the control shares, except those for which voting rights have previously been approved. The right of the trust to redeem control shares is subject to conditions and limitations. Fair value is determined, without regard to the absence of voting rights for the control shares, as of the date of the last control share acquisition by the acquiror or of any meeting of shareholders at which the voting rights of the shares are considered and not approved. If voting rights for control shares are approved at a shareholders meeting and the acquiror becomes entitled to vote a majority of the shares entitled to vote, all other shareholders may exercise appraisal rights. The fair value of the shares as determined for purposes of appraisal rights may not be less than the highest price per share paid by the acquiror in the control share acquisition.

The control share acquisition statute of the MGCL does not apply to the following:

Our bylaws contain a provision exempting any and all acquisitions by any person of our common shares from the control share acquisition statute. This provision may be amended or eliminated at any time in the future.

The following provisions in our declaration of trust and bylaws and in Maryland law could delay or prevent a change in our control:

In addition, our revolving credit and term loan agreements each also contain change in control provisions, as further described in those agreements, and our business and property management agreements with RMR LLC contain provisions that allow for termination for convenience and termination for a performance reason but require the payment of a termination fee, as further described in those agreements.

For all of these reasons, among others, our shareholders may be unable to realize a change of control premium for any of our shares they own or otherwise effect a change of our policies.

The transfer agent and registrar for our common shares is Equiniti Trust Company.

Our common shares are listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “DHC.”

The following description of the Company’s 5.625% Senior Notes due 2042 (the “2042 Notes”) and 6.25% Senior Notes due 2046 (the “2046 Notes” and, together with the 2042 Notes, the “Notes”) is a summary only. This summary is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Indenture, dated as of December 20, 2001, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 7, dated as of July 20, 2012, between the Company and the Trustee (as supplemented, the “2042 Notes Indenture”), in the case of the 2042 Notes, and by reference to the Indenture, dated as of February 18, 2016, between the Company the Trustee, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 18, 2016, between the Company and the Trustee (as supplemented, the “2046 Notes Indenture” and, together with the 2042 Notes Indenture, the “Indentures”), in the case of the 2046 Notes. The Indentures are filed as exhibits to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We have provided a Glossary at the end of section to define certain capitalized words used in discussing the terms of the Notes.

The Indentures do not limit the amount of debt securities that we may issue thereunder. We may issue debt securities of a different series or we may reopen each series of notes and, from time to time, issue additional notes of the same series, in each case without the consent of holders of the Notes. Any additional notes of the same series would have the same terms as the Notes (except for the issue date, the public offering price and, if applicable, the first interest payment date and related interest accrual date) and would rank equally with the Notes; provided that if such additional notes are not fungible with the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, or to the extent required by applicable securities laws or regulations or procedures of The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York (“DTC”), such additional notes would have a different CUSIP number. Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein to “Notes” are deemed to include any additional notes actually issued. The Indentures and our debt securities issued thereunder are and will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

We issued an aggregate principal amount of $350.0 million of the 2042 Notes on July 20, 2012. The maturity date of the 2042 Notes is August 1, 2042 (unless previously redeemed) and the 2042 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.625% per annum. As of February 28, 2020, we had an aggregate principal amount of $350.0 million of the 2042 Notes outstanding. The 2042 Notes were issued in denominations of $25.00 and integral multiples of $25.00 in excess thereof.

Interest. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears on February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1 of each year, commencing November 1, 2012, to the persons in whose names the 2042 Notes are registered at the close of business on the January 15, April 15, July 15 or October 15, as the case may be, immediately before the relevant interest payment date. Accrued and unpaid interest is also payable on the date of maturity or earlier redemption of the 2042 Notes. Interest on the 2042 Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360 day year of twelve 30 day months. If any interest payment date, maturity date or redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment may be made on the next Business Day.

Optional Redemption of the 2042 Notes. We may redeem the 2042 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time on or after August 1, 2017 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date.

We are required to give notice of such a redemption not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date to each holder’s address appearing in the securities register maintained by the Trustee. In the event we elect to redeem less than all of the 2042 Notes, the particular notes to be redeemed will be selected by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate. See “–Book-Entry System and Form of Notes” below.

We issued an aggregate principal amount of $250.0 million of the 2046 Notes on February 18, 2016. The maturity date of the 2046 Notes is February 1, 2046 (unless previously redeemed) and the 2046 Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.25% per annum. As of February 28, 2020, we had an aggregate principal amount of $250.0 million of the 2046 Notes outstanding. The 2046 Notes were issued in denominations of $25.00 and integral multiples of $25.00 in excess thereof.

Interest. Interest on the 2046 Notes is payable quarterly on March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1, each year, commencing June 1, 2016, to the persons in whose names the 2046 Notes are registered at the close of business on February 15, May 15, August 15 or November 15, as the case may be, immediately before the relevant interest payment date. Accrued interest is also payable on the date of maturity or earlier redemption of the 2046 Notes. Interest on the 2046 Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360 day year of twelve 30 day months. If any interest payment date, maturity date or redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment will be made on the next Business Day and no interest will accrue for the period from and after such interest payment date, maturity date or redemption date.

Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest to holders of book-entry interests in 2046 Notes in global form will be made in accordance with the procedures of DTC and its participants in effect from time to time. See “–Book-Entry System and Form of Notes” below.

Optional Redemption. We may redeem the 2046 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time on or after February 18, 2021 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date.

We are required to give notice of such a redemption not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date to each holder’s address appearing in the securities register maintained by the Trustee or, in the case of book-entry interests in notes in global form, in accordance with the procedures of DTC and its participants in effect from time to time. In the event we elect to redeem less than all of the 2046 Notes, the particular notes to be redeemed will be selected by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem appropriate and in accordance with the procedures of DTC and its participants in effect from time to time. See “–Book-Entry System and Form of Notes” below.

The Notes are our senior unsecured obligations and rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness outstanding from time to time. The Notes are not guaranteed by our Subsidiaries. The notes are effectively subordinated to our mortgages and other secured indebtedness, and to all liabilities of our Subsidiaries. Accordingly, such prior indebtedness will have to be satisfied in full before holders of the Notes will be able to realize any value from our encumbered or indirectly held properties.

Limitations on Incurrence of Debt. We will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt and the application of the proceeds therefrom, the aggregate principal amount of all of our and our Subsidiaries’ outstanding Debt on a consolidated basis determined in accordance with GAAP is greater than 60% of the sum of (without duplication):

(1)     our Total Assets as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by our Annual Report on Form 10-K or our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the SEC (or, if such filing is not permitted or required under the Exchange Act, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such Debt; and

(2)     the purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent that such proceeds were not used to acquire real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), by us or any Subsidiary since the end of such fiscal quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection with the incurrence of such Debt.

The sum of (1) and (2) above is referred to as our Adjusted Total Assets.

In addition to the above limitations on the incurrence of Debt, we will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Secured Debt if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Secured Debt and the application of the proceeds

therefrom, the aggregate principal amount of all our and our Subsidiaries’ outstanding Secured Debt on a consolidated basis determined in accordance with GAAP is greater than 40% of Adjusted Total Assets.

In addition to the above limitations on the incurrence of Debt, we will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt and on a pro forma basis, including the application of the proceeds therefrom, the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service to Annual Debt Service for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which such Debt is to be incurred is less than 1.5 to 1.0, calculated on the assumptions that:

(1)       such Debt and any other Debt incurred by us and our Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis since the first day of such four-quarter period and the application of the proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other Debt, had occurred at the beginning of such period;

(2)       the repayment, retirement or other discharge of any other Debt by us and our Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis since the first date of such four-quarter period had occurred at the beginning of such period (except that, in making such computation, the amount of Debt under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Debt during such period);

(3)       in the case of Acquired Debt or Debt incurred in connection with (or, in the case of the 2046 Notes, in contemplation of) any acquisition (including, in the case of the 2046 Notes, any Person becoming a Subsidiary), since the first day of such four-quarter period, the related acquisition had occurred as of the first day of such period with appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition being included in such pro forma calculation; and

(4)       in the case of any acquisition or disposition by us and our Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis 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 Debt 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.

If the Debt giving rise to the need to make the foregoing calculation 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, the interest rate on such Debt will be computed on a pro forma basis as if the average interest rate which would have been in effect during the entire such four-quarter period had been the applicable rate for the entirety of such period.

Maintenance of Total Unencumbered Assets.  We and our Subsidiaries will at all times maintain Total Unencumbered Assets of not less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of our and our Subsidiaries’ Unsecured Debt on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP.

2042 Notes. Under the 2042 Notes Indenture, we are generally permitted to consolidate or merge with another company. We are also permitted to sell substantially all of our assets to another company, or to buy substantially all of the assets of another company. However, we may not take any of these actions unless the following conditions are met:

2046 Notes. Under the 2046 Notes Indenture, we may not consolidate with or merge into any other person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of our properties and assets to any other person (other than one of our direct or indirect

wholly owned Subsidiaries), and we may not permit any other person (other than one of our direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries) to consolidate with or merge into us, unless:

The Indentures provide that the term “event of default” for the Notes means any of the following:

•we do not pay the principal of or any premium on the Notes when due and payable;

•we do not pay interest on the Notes within 30 days after the applicable due date; and

In addition, with respect to the 2042 Notes, the term “event of default also means the following:

In addition, with respect to the 2046 Notes, the term “event of default also means the following:

be remedied; only the Trustee or holders of more than 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding 2046 Notes may send the notice; or

If an event of default has occurred and has not been cured, the Trustee or the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of the affected series may declare the entire principal amount of all the debt securities of that series to be due and payable immediately. If an event of default occurs because we experience specified events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, the principal amount of all Notes of that series will be automatically accelerated and become immediately due and payable, without any action by the Trustee or any holder. At any time after the Trustee or the holders have accelerated any series of Notes, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of the affected series may, under certain circumstances, rescind and annul such acceleration.

Except in cases of default where the Trustee has some special duties, the Trustee is not required to take any action under the applicable Indenture at the request of any holders unless the holders offer the Trustee reasonable protection from expenses and liability. We refer to this as an “indemnity.” If reasonable indemnity is provided, the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of the relevant series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any lawsuit or other formal legal action seeking any remedy available to the Trustee. These majority holders may also direct the Trustee in performing any other action under the applicable Indenture, subject to certain limitations.

Before holders bypass the Trustee and bring their own lawsuit or other formal legal action or take other steps to enforce their rights or protect their interests relating to the applicable Indenture or Notes issued under such Indenture, the following must occur:

However, holders are entitled at any time to bring a lawsuit for the payment of money due on their Notes after their due date.

Every year we will furnish to the Trustee a written statement by certain of our officers certifying that, to their best knowledge, we are in compliance with the applicable indenture and the debt securities, or else specifying any default.

There are three types of changes we can make to the Indentures and the Notes:

Changes Requiring Approval of Holders of the Notes. First, we cannot make certain changes to the Indentures and our debt securities without the approval of each holder of Notes affected by the change. The following is a list of those types of changes:

Changes Requiring Majority Approval. Second, certain changes require the approval of holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of the affected series. We require the same majority vote to obtain a waiver of a past default. However, we cannot obtain a waiver of a payment default or any other aspect of an Indenture or Notes listed in the first category described above under “–Changes Requiring Approval of Holders of the Notes” without the consent of each holder of the Notes affected by the waiver.

Changes Not Requiring Approval. Third, certain changes do not require any approval of holders of Notes. These including:

Further, with respect to the 2046 Notes, the following changes do not require any approval of the 2046 Notes:

Further Details Concerning Approval. Notes are not considered outstanding, and therefore the holders thereof are not eligible to vote or consent or give their approval or take other action under the applicable indenture, if we have deposited or set aside, in trust for the holders, money for their payment or redemption or if we or one of our affiliates own them. Notes are also not considered to be outstanding and therefore eligible to vote or consent or give their approval or take other action under the applicable Indenture if they have been fully defeased or discharged, as described below under “–Discharge, Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance–Discharge” or “–Full Defeasance.”

Discharge. We may discharge our obligations to holders of any series of Notes that have become due and payable or will become due and payable at their stated maturity within one year, or are to be called for redemption within one year, by depositing or causing to be deposited with the Trustee, in trust, funds in the applicable currency in an amount sufficient to pay the Notes of such series, including any premium and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of debt securities which have become due and payable) or to such stated maturity or redemption date, as applicable.

Full Defeasance. We can, under particular circumstances, effect a full defeasance of any series of the Notes. By this we mean we can legally release ourselves from any payment or other obligations on the debt securities if, among other things, we put in place the arrangements described below to repay those Notes and deliver certain certificates and opinions to the Trustee.

With respect to the 2042 Notes:

With respect to the 2046 Notes:

of a person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of such government the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by such government); and

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following rights and obligations will survive full defeasance:

Covenant Defeasance. Under current U.S. federal income tax law, we can make the same type of deposit described above with respect to a series of Notes and be released from the obligations imposed by most of the covenants with respect to such series and provisions of the applicable Indenture with respect to such series, and we may omit to comply with those covenants and provisions without creating an event of default. This is called “covenant defeasance.”

If we accomplish covenant defeasance, the following provisions of an Indenture and the Notes of such series would no longer apply:

The Notes are not entitled to any sinking fund payments.

We designated U.S. Bank National Association as the registrar and paying agent for the Notes. Payments of interest and principal are made, and the Notes are transferable, at the office of the paying agent, or at such other place or places as may be designated pursuant to the Indentures. For Notes which we issue in book-entry form evidenced by a global note, payments will be made to a nominee of the depository.

The Notes were initially issued in the form of one or more fully registered global notes without coupons that were deposited with or on behalf of DTC and registered in the name of its nominee, Cede & Co. This means that we will not issue certificates to each holder of Notes. Each global note will be issued to DTC, which will keep a computerized record of its participants (for example, a broker) whose clients have purchased the Notes. The participants keep a record of their clients who purchased the Notes. Unless it is exchanged in whole or in part for a certificated note, each global note may not be transferred, except that DTC, its nominees, and their successors may transfer a global note in whole to one another. Beneficial interests in a global note will be shown on, and transfers of a global note will be made only through, records maintained by DTC and its participants.

If applicable, investors may elect to hold their interest in the global notes through either DTC, Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream”) or Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. (“Euroclear”) if they are participants in these systems, or indirectly through organizations which are participants in these systems. Clearstream and Euroclear will hold interests on behalf of their participants though customers’ securities accounts in Clearstream and Euroclear’s names on the books of their respective depositaries, which in turn will hold interests in customers’ securities accounts in the depositaries’ names on the books of DTC.

The laws of some states may require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of the securities in definitive form. These laws may limit the ability of those persons to own, transfer or pledge beneficial interests in registered global securities.

So long as the depositary for a registered global security, or its nominee, is the registered owner of the registered global security, the depositary or the nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the Notes represented by the registered global security for all purposes under the applicable Indenture. Except as set forth below, owners of beneficial interests in a registered global security:

Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a registered global security must rely on the procedures of the depositary for the registered global security and, if the person is not a participant, on the procedures of a participant through which the person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under the applicable Indenture.

We understand that under currently existing industry practices, if we request any action of holders or if an owner of a beneficial interest in a registered global security desires to give or take any action that a holder is entitled to give or take under an Indenture, the depositary for the registered global security would authorize the participants holding the relevant beneficial interests to give or take the action, and those participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through those participants to give or take the action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners holding through them.

We will make payments of principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on Notes represented by a registered global security registered in the name of a depositary or its nominee to the depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owners of the registered global security. Neither we nor any trustee or any other agent of us or a trustee will be responsible or liable for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership interests in the registered global security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to the beneficial ownership interests.

We expect that the depositary for any debt securities represented by a registered global security, upon receipt of any payments of principal and premium, if any, and interest, if any, in respect of the registered global security, will immediately credit participants’ accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the registered global security as shown on the records of the depositary. We also expect that standing customer instructions and customary practices will govern payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in the registered global security held through the participants, as is now the case with the securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name.” We also expect that any of these payments will be the responsibility of the participants.

No registered global security may be exchanged in whole or in part Notes registered, and no transfer of a registered global security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any person other than the depositary for such registered global security, unless (1) such depositary notifies us that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for such registered global security or has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and we fail to appoint an eligible successor depositary within 90 days, or (2) an event of default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to such Notes. In any such case, the affected registered global security may be exchanged in whole or in part for applicable Notes in definitive form and the applicable trustee will register any such Notes in such name or names as such depositary directs.

DTC has advised us that DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC holds securities that its participants, or direct participants, deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among direct participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between direct participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, or DTCC. DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are

registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a direct participant, either directly or indirectly. The rules applicable to DTC and its direct participants are on file with the SEC. The information in this paragraph concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that we believe to be reliable, but we take no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

Neither we nor the Trustee assumes any responsibility for the performance by DTC or any other depositary or its participants of their respective obligations, including obligations that they have under the rules and procedures that govern their operations.

U.S. Bank National Association is the trustee under the Indentures. We have commercial deposits and custodial arrangements with U.S. Bank National Association. and its affiliates. We may enter into similar or other banking relationships with U.S. Bank National Association in the future in the normal course of business. In addition, U.S. Bank National Association acts as trustee and as paying agent with respect to other debt securities issued by us, and may do so for future issuances of debt securities by us as well.
