Except where the context otherwise requires, such registration statement, including all documents filed as part thereof or incorporated by reference therein, and including any information contained in the Prospectus (as defined below) subsequently filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act or deemed to be a part of such registration statement pursuant to Rule 430B of the Securities Act, is referred to in this Agreement as the “Registration Statement”. The term “Prospectus” shall mean the final prospectus supplement relating to the Notes, together with the base prospectus, that is first filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act after the date and time that this Agreement is executed by the parties hereto. The term “Preliminary Prospectus” shall mean any preliminary prospectus supplement relating to the Notes, together with the base prospectus, that is first filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act. For purposes of this Agreement, “free writing prospectus” has the meaning ascribed to it in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, and “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus” shall mean each free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of the Operating Partnership or used or referred to by the Operating Partnership in connection with the offering of Notes, including the “road show for an offering that is a written communication” within the meaning of Rule 433(d)(8)(i) under the Securities Act, whether or not required to be filed with the Commission. “Time of Sale Information” shall mean the Preliminary Prospectus together with the information listed in Schedule 2, if any, hereto and the free writing prospectuses, if any, each identified in Schedule 3 hereto.

As used herein, the term “Incorporated Documents” means the documents that at the time of filing are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto. For purposes of this Agreement, “Effective Time” means the date and time as of which the Registration Statement became effective upon filing with the Commission. “Effective Date” with respect to the Registration Statement means the date of the Effective Time thereof.

(b) On the Effective Date of the Registration Statement, at the effective time of any amendment to the Registration Statement, and at each deemed effective date (the “deemed effective date”) with respect to the Underwriters pursuant to Rule 430(B)(f)(2) under the Securities Act, the Registration Statement (and with respect to each deemed effective date, the part of the Registration Statement relating to the Notes) conformed, and any amendment to the Registration Statement filed after the date hereof will conform, in all material respects when filed, to the requirements of the Securities Act and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “Trust Indenture Act”), and did not, does not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, provided, that no representation or warranty is made as to information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Operating Partnership through the Representatives by or on behalf of any Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information is that described as such in Section 10(b) hereof. At the time of filing of each of the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act and at the Delivery Date (as defined in Section 4), the Preliminary Prospectus conformed and the Prospectus will conform, in all material respects, to the requirements of the Securities Act, and did not or will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, provided that no representation or warranty is made as to information contained in or omitted from the Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Operating Partnership through the Representatives by or on behalf of any Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information is that described as such in Section 10(b) hereof. The Time of Sale Information does not, and will not at the time of sale of the Notes and at the Delivery Date, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, provided that no representation or warranty is made as to information contained in or omitted from the Time of Sale Information in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Operating Partnership through the Representatives by or on behalf of any Underwriter specifically for inclusion therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information is that described as such in Section 10(b) hereof.

Each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, when considered together with the Time of Sale Information at the time of sale of the Notes, did not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, as of its issue date and at all subsequent times through the completion of the public offer and sale of the Notes or until any earlier date that the Operating Partnership notified or will notify the Underwriters, did not, does not and will not include any information that conflicted, conflicts or will conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, including any Incorporated Document and any preliminary or other prospectus supplement deemed to be a part thereof that has not been superseded or modified. The Operating Partnership has not made any offer relating to the Notes that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus without the prior written consent of the Representatives. The Operating Partnership has retained in accordance with the Securities Act all Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses that were not required to be filed pursuant to the Securities Act. The Operating Partnership has taken all actions necessary so that any “road show” (as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act) in connection with the offering of the Notes will not be required to be filed pursuant to the Securities Act.

SECTION 7. Conditions of the Underwriters’ Obligations. The respective obligations of the Underwriters hereunder are subject to the accuracy, when made and on the Delivery Date, of the representations and warranties of the Operating Partnership contained herein, to the performance by the Operating Partnership of its obligations hereunder, and to each of the following additional terms and conditions:

(b) The Registration Statement has become effective under the Securities Act; the Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if any, the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as the case may be, shall have been filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) (in the case of the Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, to the extent required under Rule 433 of the Securities Act) within the applicable time period prescribed for such filing by such Rule; and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto and no order directed at any Incorporated Document or any amendment or

(d) All corporate proceedings and other legal matters incident to the authorization, form and validity of this Agreement, the Notes, the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, and all other legal matters relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be reasonably satisfactory in all material respects to counsel for the Underwriters, and the Operating Partnership shall have furnished to such counsel all documents and information that they may reasonably request to enable them to pass upon such matters.

(e) Xxxxx Lovells US LLP shall have furnished to the Representatives its written opinion, as counsel to the Operating Partnership, addressed to the Underwriters and dated the Delivery Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives and counsel to the Underwriters, substantially as set forth in Exhibit D-1 hereto. In rendering such opinion, such counsel may state that its opinion is limited to matters governed by the Federal laws of the United States of America and the States of Delaware, Maryland and New York and in respect of matters of fact, upon certificates of officers of the Operating Partnership or its subsidiaries, provided that such counsel shall state that it believes that both the Underwriters and it are justified in relying upon such certificates.

(g) Reserved.

(h) At the time of execution of this Agreement, the Representatives shall have received from Ernst & Young LLP a letter, in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives, addressed to the Underwriters and dated the date hereof (i) confirming that they are independent public accountants within the meaning of the Securities Act and are in compliance with the applicable requirements relating to the qualification of accountants under Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X of the Commission, and (ii) stating, as of the date hereof (or, with respect to matters involving changes or developments since the respective dates as of which specified financial information is given in the Prospectus and the Time of Sale Information, as of a date not more than three business days prior to the date hereof), 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 as contemplated in the Statement on Auditing Standards No. 72.

the Prospectus and the Time of Sale Information, the effect of which, in any such case described in clause (A) or (B), is, in the judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Notes being delivered on the Delivery Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus and the Time of Sale Information.

(k) Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement there shall not have occurred any of the following: (i) trading in securities generally on the NYSE or the NYSE MKT LLC or in the over-the-counter market, or trading in any securities of the Operating Partnership on the NYSE, shall have been suspended or materially limited or the settlement of such trading generally shall have been materially disrupted or minimum prices shall have been established on any such exchange or such market by the Commission, by such exchange or by any other regulatory body or governmental authority having jurisdiction, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared by Federal or any state authority or a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services shall have occurred, (iii) the United States shall have become engaged in new hostilities, there shall have been an escalation in hostilities involving the United States or there shall have been a declaration of a national emergency or war by the United States or there shall have occurred any other calamity or crisis as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or delivery of the Notes being delivered on the Delivery Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus and the Time of Sale Information or (iv) there shall have occurred such a material adverse change in general economic, political or financial conditions, including, without limitation, as a result of terrorist activities after the date hereof (or the effect of international conditions on the financial markets in the United States shall be such) as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or delivery of the Notes being delivered on the Delivery Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus and the Time of Sale Information.

(l) The Operating Partnership shall have furnished to the Representatives a certificate, dated the Delivery Date, of its chief executive officer and its chief financial officer stating that:

(i) The representations, warranties and agreements of the Operating Partnership in Section 1 are true and correct in all material respects, as of the Delivery Date; the Operating Partnership has complied with all its agreements contained herein; and the conditions set forth in Sections 7(b) and (c) have been fulfilled;

(ii) They have carefully examined the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and, in their opinion (A) as of the Effective Date, the Registration Statement and Prospectus did not include any untrue statement of a material fact and did not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (with respect to the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made), and (B) since the Effective Date no event has occurred which should have been set forth in a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus; and

(iii) No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are contemplated by the Commission.

(m) Subsequent to the execution of this Agreement, (i) there shall not have been any decrease in the rating of any debt securities of the Operating Partnership or the Possible Future Guarantor by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (as defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act), and (ii) no such organization shall have publicly announced that it has under surveillance or review or on a so-called “watch list,” with possible negative implications, its ratings of the Operating Partnership or the Possible Future Guarantor or any such debt securities.

(n) On the Delivery Date, counsel for the Underwriters shall have been furnished with such documents and opinions as they may require for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon the issuance and sale of the Notes as herein contemplated and related proceedings, or in order to evidence the accuracy of any of the representations or warranties, or the fulfillment of any of the conditions, herein contained.

(o) The Operating Partnership shall have furnished or caused to be furnished to you such further certificates and documents as the Representatives or counsel to the Underwriters shall have reasonably requested.

All opinions, letters, evidence and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be deemed to be in compliance with the provisions hereof only if they are in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters.

Any certificate or document signed by any officer or authorized representative of the Operating Partnership and delivered to the Underwriters, or to counsel for the Underwriters, shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Operating Partnership to each Underwriter as to the statements made therein.

SECTION 8. Effective Date of Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution hereof by the parties hereto.

SECTION 9. Default by One or More of the Underwriters. If any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase the principal amount of Notes that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder, and the aggregate principal amount of Notes that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, each non-defaulting Underwriter shall be obligated, severally, in the proportion in which the principal amount of Notes set forth opposite its name in Schedule 1 hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Notes set forth opposite the names of all non-defaulting Underwriters or in such other proportion as you may specify, to purchase the Notes that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed, but failed or refused to purchase. If any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Notes and the aggregate principal amount of Notes with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Notes and arrangements satisfactory to you and the Operating Partnership for the purchase of such Notes are not made within 48 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Operating Partnership. In any such case that does not result in termination of this Agreement, either you or the Operating Partnership shall have the right to postpone the Delivery Date, but in no event for longer than seven (7) days, in order that the required changes,

if any, in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any such default of any such Underwriter under this Agreement.

SECTION 10. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Subject to the limitations in this paragraph below, the Operating Partnership agrees to indemnify and hold harmless you and each other Underwriter, its affiliates, as such term is defined in Rule 501(b) under the Securities Act, partners, directors, officers, employees and agents of each Underwriter, and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, including reasonable costs of investigation and attorneys’ fees and expenses (collectively, “Damages”) arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “road show” (as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act) not constituting an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto (including the information deemed to be a part of the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 434 under the Securities Act, if applicable), or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except to the extent that any such Damages arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission that has been made therein or omitted therefrom in reliance upon and in conformity with the information furnished in writing to the Operating Partnership by or on behalf of any Underwriter through you, expressly for use in connection therewith, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriters consists of the information described as such in subsection (b) below. This indemnification shall be in addition to any liability that the Operating Partnership may otherwise have.

(b) Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Operating Partnership, its officers and any person who controls the Operating Partnership within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing several indemnity from the Operating Partnership to each Underwriter, but only with respect to information furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through you expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Time of Sale Information, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “road show” (as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act) not constituting an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or any Preliminary Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriters consists of the following information in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or the Time of Sale Information furnished by the Underwriters: the information in the eighth through eleventh paragraphs under the caption “Underwriting”, but with respect to the eleventh paragraph, only with respect to statements made by the Underwriters. If any action or claim shall be brought or asserted against the Operating Partnership, any of its trustees, any of its officers or any such controlling person based on the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Time of Sale Information or any

Preliminary Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and in respect of which indemnity may be sought against any Underwriter pursuant to this paragraph, such Underwriter shall have the rights and duties given to the Operating Partnership by Section 10(e) hereof (except that if the Operating Partnership shall have assumed the defense thereof such Underwriter shall not be required to do so, but may employ separate counsel therein and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at such Underwriter’s expense), and the Operating Partnership, its trustees, any such officers and any such controlling persons, shall have the rights and duties given to the Underwriters by Section 10(e) hereof.

(c) In any event, the Operating Partnership will not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any proceeding or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which the indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Representatives or any person who controls the Representatives within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act is a party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of all Underwriters and such controlling persons from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding.

(d) If any action or claim shall be brought against any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Operating Partnership, such Underwriter or such controlling person shall promptly notify in writing the party(s) against whom indemnification is being sought (the “indemnifying party” or “indemnifying parties”), and such indemnifying party(s) shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably acceptable to such Underwriter or such controlling person and the payment of all reasonable fees of and expenses incurred by such counsel. Such Underwriter or any such controlling person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Underwriter or such controlling person, unless (i) the indemnifying party(s) has (have) agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) the indemnifying party(s) has (have) failed to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Underwriter or such controlling person or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both such Underwriter or such controlling person and the indemnifying party(s), and such Underwriter or such controlling person shall have been advised by its counsel that one or more legal defenses may be available to the Underwriter that may not be available to the Operating Partnership, or that representation of such indemnified party and any indemnifying party(s) by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct (whether or not such representation by the same counsel has been proposed) due to actual or potential differing interests between them (in which case the indemnifying party(s) shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such Underwriter or such controlling person (but the Operating Partnership shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for the Underwriters and such controlling persons)). The indemnifying party(s) shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its (their several) written consent, which written consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with such written consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party(s) agree(s) to indemnify and hold harmless any Underwriter and any such controlling

person from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment, but in the case of a judgment only to the extent stated in Section 10(a).

(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 is unavailable or insufficient for any reason whatsoever to an indemnified party in respect of any Damages referred to herein, then an indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Damages (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Operating Partnership on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other hand, from the offering and sale of the Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative and several fault of the Operating Partnership on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Damages as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Operating Partnership on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Notes (before deducting expenses) received by the Operating Partnership bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Operating Partnership on the one hand, and the Underwriters on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Operating Partnership on the one hand, or by the Underwriters on the other hand and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Operating Partnership and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10 was determined by a pro-rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the Damages referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount of the underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter in connection with the Notes underwritten by it and distributed to the public. 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. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 10 are several in proportion to the respective principal amounts of Notes set forth opposite their names in Schedule 1 hereto and not joint.

(f) Any Damages for which an indemnified party is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this Section 10 shall be paid by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party as Damages are incurred after receipt of reasonably itemized invoices therefor. The indemnity, contribution and reimbursement agreements contained in this Section 10 and the representations and warranties of the Operating Partnership set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on

behalf of any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter, the Operating Partnership, its officers or any person controlling the Operating Partnership, (ii) acceptance of any Notes and payment therefor hereunder and (iii) any termination of this Agreement. A successor to any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter, or to the Operating Partnership, its officers or any person controlling the Operating Partnership, shall be entitled to the benefits of the indemnity, contribution and reimbursement agreements contained in this Section 10.

SECTION 11. Termination. The obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be terminated by the Representatives by notice given to and received by the Operating Partnership prior to delivery of and payment for the Notes if, prior to that time, any of the events described in Sections 7(j) or 7(k) shall have occurred or if the Underwriters shall decline to purchase the Notes for any reason permitted under this Agreement.

SECTION 12. Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses. If the Operating Partnership shall fail to tender the Notes for delivery to the Underwriters by reason of any failure, refusal or inability on the part of the Operating Partnership to perform any agreement on their part to be performed, or because any other condition of the Underwriters’ obligations hereunder required to be fulfilled by the Operating Partnership is not fulfilled, the Operating Partnership will reimburse the Underwriters for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Underwriters in connection with this Agreement and the proposed purchase of the Notes, and upon demand the Operating Partnership shall pay the full amount thereof to the Representatives. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9 by reason of the default of one or more Underwriters, the Operating Partnership shall not be obligated to reimburse any defaulting Underwriter on account of those expenses.

SECTION 13. No Fiduciary Duty. The Operating Partnership acknowledges and agrees that in connection with the offering and sale of the Notes or any other services the Underwriters may be deemed to be providing hereunder, notwithstanding any pre-existing relationship, advisory or otherwise, between the parties or any oral representations or assurances previously or subsequently made by the Underwriters: (i) no fiduciary or agency relationship between the Operating Partnership and any other person, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, exists; (ii) the Underwriters are not acting as advisors, expert or otherwise, to the Operating Partnership, including, without limitation, with respect to the determination of the public offering price of the Notes, and such relationship between the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, is entirely and solely commercial, based on arms-length negotiations; (iii) any duties and obligations that the Underwriters may have to the Operating Partnership shall be limited to those duties and obligations specifically stated herein; and (iv) the Underwriters and their respective affiliates may have interests that differ from those of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership hereby waives any claims that the Operating Partnership may have against the Underwriters with respect to any breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the offering and sale of the Notes; provided, however, that such waiver shall not limit the rights of the parties to this Agreement under Section 10 hereof.

SECTION 14. Research Independence. In addition, the Operating Partnership acknowledges that the Underwriters’ research analysts and research departments are required to be independent from their respective investment banking divisions and are subject to certain regulations and internal policies, and that such Underwriters’ research analysts may hold and

make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish research reports with respect to the Operating Partnership and/or the Offering that differ from the views of its investment bankers. The Operating Partnership acknowledges that each of the Underwriters is a full service securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities of the companies which may be the subject of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
