issuer&#148; as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act&nbsp;of&nbsp;1933, as amended, using a &#147;shelf&#148; registration process. By using a shelf registration statement, the selling securityholders named in this prospectus may sell shares
of common stock from time to time in one or more offerings as described in this prospectus. When the selling securityholders offer and resell shares of common stock, the selling securityholders may provide a prospectus supplement to this prospectus
that contains specific information about the common stock being offered and sold and the specific terms of that offering. We may also authorize one or more free writing prospectuses to be provided to you that may contain material information
relating to these offerings. Any prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus may also add, update or change information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus with respect to that offering. If there is any inconsistency
between the information in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, you should rely on the prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, as applicable. Before
purchasing any shares of common stock, you should carefully read both this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement (and any applicable free writing prospectuses), together with the additional information described under the heading

an offer to sell shares of common stock in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement to this prospectus is accurate only as
of the date on its respective cover, that the information appearing in any applicable free writing prospectus is accurate only as of the date of that free writing prospectus, and that any information incorporated by reference is accurate only as of
the date of the document incorporated by reference, unless we indicate otherwise. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates. This prospectus incorporates by reference, and any

believe these sources are reliable, we do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of this information and we have not independently verified this information. In addition, the market and industry data and forecasts that may be included or
incorporated by reference in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or any applicable free writing prospectus may involve estimates, assumptions and other risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors, including
those discussed under the heading &#147;Risk Factors&#148; contained in this prospectus, the applicable prospectus supplement and any applicable free writing prospectus, and under similar headings in other documents that are incorporated by

forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. In particular, statements pertaining to our capital resources, portfolio performance, our ability to lease vacant space and space under development, leverage policy and
acquisition and capital expenditure plans, as well as our discussion of &#147;Factors Which May Influence Future Results of Operations,&#148; contain forward-looking statements. Likewise, all of our statements regarding anticipated market
conditions, demographics and results of operations are forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as &#147;believes,&#148; &#147;expects,&#148; &#147;may,&#148;

words or phrases which are predictions of or indicate future events or trends and which do not relate solely to historical matters. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. </P>

statements depend on assumptions, data or methods that may be incorrect or imprecise and that we may not be able to realize. We do not guarantee that the transactions and events described will happen as described or that they will happen at all. The
following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements: </P> <P STYLE="font-size:6pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

that these actions may be taken if declared advisable by a majority of the company&#146;s board of directors and approved by the vote of stockholders entitled to cast a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter. However, Maryland law
permits a corporation to transfer all or substantially all of its assets without the approval of the stockholders of the corporation to one or more persons if all of the equity interests of the person or persons are owned, directly or indirectly, by
the corporation. In addition, operating assets may be held by a corporation&#146;s subsidiaries, as in the company&#146;s situation, and these subsidiaries may be able to transfer all or substantially all of such assets without a vote of the parent
corporation&#146;s stockholders. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The company&#146;s charter authorizes its board of directors to reclassify any unissued shares of the common stock into

increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of common stock, to issue additional authorized but unissued shares of the common stock and to classify or reclassify unissued shares of the common stock into other classes or series of stock and
thereafter to cause the company to issue such classified or reclassified shares of stock. The company believes these powers provide it with increased flexibility in structuring possible future financings and acquisitions and in meeting other needs
which might arise. Subject to the limited rights of holders of the company&#146;s series J preferred stock, series K preferred stock and series L preferred stock and each other parity class or series of preferred stock, voting together as a single
class, to approve certain issuances of senior classes or series of stock, the additional classes or series, as well as the common stock, will be available for issuance without further action by the company&#146;s stockholders, unless stockholder

1986, as amended, or the Code, the company&#146;s stock must be beneficially owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months (other than the first year for which an election to be a REIT has been made) or during
a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year. Also, not more than 50% of the value of the outstanding shares of stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Code to include certain entities such as
qualified pension plans) during the last half of a taxable year (other than the first year for which an election to be a REIT has been made). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The
company&#146;s charter contains restrictions on the ownership and transfer of the common stock, preferred stock and capital stock that are intended to assist the company in complying with these requirements and continuing to qualify as a REIT. The
relevant sections of the company&#146;s charter provide that, subject to the exceptions described below, no person or entity may beneficially own, or be deemed to own by virtue of the applicable constructive ownership provisions of the Code, more
than 9.8% (by value or by number of shares, whichever is more restrictive) of the outstanding shares of the common stock or of any series of preferred stock, or more than 9.8% of the value of the company&#146;s outstanding capital stock. The company
refers to these restrictions as the &#147;common stock ownership limit,&#148; the &#147;preferred stock ownership limit&#148; and the &#147;aggregate stock ownership limit,&#148; respectively. A person or entity that becomes subject to one of the
ownership limits by virtue of a violative transfer that results in a transfer to a trust, as set forth below, is referred to as a &#147;purported beneficial transferee&#148; if, had the violative transfer been effective, the person or entity would
have been a record owner and beneficial owner or solely a beneficial owner of the common stock, any series of the company&#146;s preferred stock, or the company&#146;s capital stock, as applicable, or is referred to as a &#147;purported record
transferee&#148; if, had the violative transfer been effective, the person or entity would have been solely a record owner of the common stock, any series of the company&#146;s preferred stock, or the company&#146;s capital stock, as applicable.

right to require the operating partnership to redeem part or all of their units for cash based upon the fair market value of an equivalent number of shares of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. common stock at the time of the redemption. Alternatively,
Digital Realty Trust, Inc. may elect to acquire those units in exchange for shares of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. common stock. Digital Realty Trust, Inc.&#146;s acquisition will be on a
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-for-one</FONT></FONT> basis, subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, issuances of stock rights, specified extraordinary distributions and similar
events. Digital Realty Trust, Inc. presently anticipates that it will elect to issue shares of its common stock in exchange for units in connection with each redemption request, rather than having the operating partnership redeem the units for cash.
With each redemption or exchange, Digital Realty Trust, Inc.&#146;s percentage ownership interest in the operating partnership increases. Limited partners who hold units may exercise this redemption right from time to time, in whole or in part,
except when, as a consequence of shares of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. common stock being issued, any person&#146;s actual or constructive stock ownership would exceed Digital Realty Trust, Inc.&#146;s ownership limits, or any other limit as provided
in its charter or as otherwise determined by its board of directors. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, if the number of units delivered by a limited partner for redemption
would, if exchanged for common stock, exceed 9.8% of Digital Realty Trust, Inc.&#146;s outstanding common stock and $50.0&nbsp;million in gross value (based on a unit value equal to the trailing <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">ten-day</FONT> daily
price of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. common stock) and Digital Realty Trust, Inc. is eligible to file a registration statement on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-3</FONT> under the Securities Act, then it may also elect to redeem the units
with the proceeds from a public offering or private placement of its common stock. In the event it elects this option, Digital Realty Trust, Inc. may require the other limited partners also to elect whether or not to participate. If it does so, any
limited partner who does not elect to participate will not be permitted to redeem units for the subsequent 12 months, subject to limited exceptions. Participating limited partners will receive on the redemption date the lesser of the cash the
operating partnership would otherwise be required to pay for such units or the net proceeds per share in the public offering, but will have a limited opportunity to withdraw their units from the redemption immediately prior to the pricing of the
public offering. Except as described above, a limited partner is not entitled to redeem common units, either for cash or shares of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. common stock, if exchanging the common units for shares of Digital Realty Trust, Inc.
common stock would violate the ownership limits set forth in Digital Realty Trust, Inc.&#146;s charter. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Partnership Right to Call Limited Partner

partners in accordance with the respective percentage interests in the common units issued by the operating partnership. Net loss will generally be allocated to Digital Realty Trust, Inc., as general partner, and the limited partners in accordance
with the respective common percentage interests in the operating partnership until the limited partner&#146;s capital is reduced to zero and any remaining net loss would be allocated to Digital Realty Trust, Inc. However, in some cases, losses may
be disproportionately allocated to partners who have guaranteed our debt. The allocations described above are subject to special allocations relating to depreciation deductions and to compliance with the provisions of Sections 704(b) and 704(c) of
the Code and the associated Treasury Regulations. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, Digital Realty Trust, Inc. may from time to time issue long-term incentive units, which
are also referred to as profits interest units, to persons who provide services to the company for such consideration or for no consideration as it may determine to be appropriate, and admit such persons as limited partners. The long-term incentive
units are similar to the operating partnership&#146;s common units in many respects and rank <I>pari passu</I> with the operating partnership&#146;s common units as to the payment of regular and special periodic or other distributions except
liquidating distributions. The long-term incentive units may be subject to vesting requirements. Initially, long-term incentive units do not have full parity with common units with respect to liquidating distributions. If such parity is reached,
vested long-term incentive units may be converted into an equal number of common units of the operating partnership at any time, and thereafter enjoy all the rights of common units of the operating partnership, including redemption rights. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In order to achieve full parity with common units, long-term incentive units must be fully vested and the holder&#146;s capital account balance in respect of
such long-term incentive units must be equal to the capital account balance of a holder of an equivalent number of common units. The capital account balance attributable to each common unit is generally expected to be the same, in part because of
the amount credited to a partner&#146;s capital account upon their contribution of property to the operating partnership, and in part because the partnership agreement provides, in most cases, that allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction
(which will adjust the partners&#146; capital accounts) are to be made to the common units on a proportionate basis. As a result, with respect to a number of long-term incentive units, it is possible to determine the capital account balance of an
equivalent number of common units by multiplying the number of long-term incentive units by the capital account balance with respect to a common unit. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A
partner&#146;s initial capital account balance is equal to the amount the partner paid (or contributed to the operating partnership) for its units and is subject to subsequent adjustments, including with respect to the partner&#146;s share of
income, gain or loss of the operating partnership. Because a holder of long-term incentive units generally will not pay for the long-term incentive units, the initial capital account balance attributable to such long-term incentive units will be
zero. However, the operating partnership is required to allocate income, gain, loss and deduction to </P>

the partners&#146; capital accounts in accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement, subject to applicable Treasury Regulations. The partnership agreement provides that holders of
long-term incentive units will receive special allocations of gain in the event of a sale or &#147;hypothetical sale&#148; of assets of the operating partnership prior to the allocation of gain to Digital Realty Trust, Inc. or other limited partners
with respect to their common units. The amount of such allocation will, to the extent of any such gain, be equal to the difference between the capital account balance of a holder of long-term incentive units attributable to such units and the
capital account balance attributable to an equivalent number of common units. If and when such gain allocation is fully made, a holder of long-term incentive units will have achieved full parity with holders of common units. To the extent that, upon
an actual sale or a &#147;hypothetical sale&#148; of the operating partnership&#146;s assets as described above, there is not sufficient gain to allocate to a holder&#146;s capital account with respect to long-term incentive units, or if such sale
or &#147;hypothetical sale&#148; does not occur, such units will not achieve parity with common units. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The term &#147;hypothetical sale&#148; refers to
circumstances that are not actual sales of the operating partnership&#146;s assets but that require certain adjustments to the value of the operating partnership&#146;s assets and the partners&#146; capital account balances. Specifically, the
partnership agreement provides that, from time to time, in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations, the operating partnership will adjust the value of its assets to equal their respective fair market values, and adjust the partners&#146;
capital accounts, in accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement, as if the operating partnership sold its assets for an amount equal to their value. Times for making such adjustments generally include the liquidation of the operating
partnership, the acquisition of an additional interest in the operating partnership by a new or existing partner in exchange for more than a de minimis capital contribution, the distribution by the operating partnership to a partner of more than a
de minimis amount of partnership property as consideration for an interest in the operating partnership, in connection with the grant of an interest in the operating partnership (other than a de minimis interest) as consideration for the performance
of services to or for the benefit of the operating partnership (including the grant of a long-term incentive unit), the issuance by the operating partnership of certain noncompensatory options, the acquisition of a partnership interest upon the
exercise of a noncompensatory option and at such other times as may be desirable or required to comply with the Treasury Regulations. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The operating
partnership may also from time to time issue class C units or class D units to persons who provide services to it for such consideration or for no consideration as it may determine to be appropriate. If all applicable performance and other vesting
conditions are satisfied with respect to a class C unit or a class D unit, the class C unit or class D unit, as applicable, will be treated in the same manner as the long-term incentive units issued by the operating partnership. Class&nbsp;C units
and class D units are not entitled to quarterly distributions prior to the satisfaction of all applicable performance conditions. In addition, the operating partnership may issue class D units that are subject to performance vesting, which generally
receive quarterly <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">per-unit</FONT> distributions equal to ten percent of the distributions made with respect to an equivalent number of common units. Class&nbsp;C units and class D units, other than class D units that
are not performance vested, are subject to the same conditions as other long-term incentive units with respect to achieving full parity with common units. </P>

and bylaws does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to Maryland law and the company&#146;s charter and bylaws, copies of which are exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is
a part. See &#147;Where You Can Find More Information.&#148; </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>The Company&#146;s Board of Directors </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The company&#146;s bylaws provide that the number of directors of the company may be established by the company&#146;s board of directors but may not be fewer
than the minimum number permitted under the MGCL or more than 15. Except as may be provided by the company&#146;s board of directors in setting the terms of any class or series of stock, any vacancy may be filled only by a vote of a majority of the
remaining directors, even if the remaining directors do not constitute a quorum. Any director elected to fill a vacancy shall serve for the remainder of the full term of the directorship in which the vacancy occurred and until a successor is elected
and qualifies. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Each of the company&#146;s directors is elected by the company&#146;s common stockholders to serve until the next annual meeting and until
their successors are duly elected and qualify. Holders of shares of the company&#146;s common stock will have no right to cumulative voting in the election of directors. Consequently, at each annual meeting of stockholders, the holders of a majority
of the shares of the common stock will be able to elect all of the company&#146;s directors. Additionally, in the event that the company is in arrears on dividends on the company&#146;s series J preferred stock, series K preferred stock or series L
preferred stock for six or more quarterly periods, whether or not consecutive, holders of the company&#146;s series J preferred stock, series K preferred stock or series L preferred stock as the case may be, voting as a single class with all other
series of preferred stock upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, will have the right to elect two additional directors to the company&#146;s board for a limited time. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Removal of Directors </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The company&#146;s charter provides
that a director may be removed only for cause (as defined in the company&#146;s charter) and only by the affirmative vote of stockholders entitled to cast at least <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">two-thirds</FONT> of the votes entitled to be cast
generally in the election of directors. This provision, when coupled with the exclusive power of the company&#146;s board of directors to fill vacant directorships, precludes stockholders from (1)&nbsp;removing incumbent directors except upon the
existence of cause for removal and a substantial affirmative vote and (2)&nbsp;filling the vacancies created by such removal with their own nominees. In addition, any director elected to the company&#146;s board by the holders of the company&#146;s
preferred stock may only be removed by a vote of preferred stockholders. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Business Combinations </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under the MGCL, certain &#147;business combinations&#148; (including a merger, consolidation, share exchange or, in certain circumstances, an asset transfer or
issuance or reclassification of equity securities) between a Maryland corporation and any interested stockholder, or an affiliate of such an interested stockholder, are prohibited for five years after the most recent date on which the interested
stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. Maryland law defines an interested stockholder as any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the voting power of the corporation&#146;s outstanding voting stock or an
affiliate or associate of the corporation who, at any time within the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">two-year</FONT> period prior to the date in question, was the beneficial owner of, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the voting power of the
then outstanding stock of the corporation. A person is not an interested stockholder under the statute if the board of directors approved in advance the transaction by which the person otherwise would have become an interested stockholder. The
company&#146;s board of directors may provide that its approval is subject to compliance with any terms and conditions determined by it. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">After such five-year period, any such business combination must be recommended by the board of directors of
such corporation and approved by the affirmative vote of at least (1) 80% of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of outstanding shares of voting stock of the corporation and <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(2)&nbsp;two-thirds</FONT> of the
votes entitled to be cast by holders of voting stock of the corporation other than shares held by the interested stockholder with whom (or with whose affiliate) the business combination is to be effected or by an affiliate or associate of the
interested stockholder, unless, among other conditions, the corporation&#146;s common stockholders receive a minimum price (as defined in the MGCL) for their shares and the consideration is received in cash or in the same form as previously paid by
the interested stockholder for its shares. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">These provisions of the MGCL do not apply, however, to business combinations that are approved or exempted by
a board of directors prior to the time that the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. Pursuant to the statute, the company&#146;s board of directors has by resolution opted out of the business combination provisions of the MGCL
and, consequently, the five-year prohibition and the supermajority vote requirements will not apply to business combinations between us and any interested stockholder of the company. As a result, anyone who later becomes an interested stockholder
may be able to enter into business combinations with the company that may not be in the best interest of the company&#146;s stockholders without compliance by the company with the super-majority vote requirements and the other provisions of the
statute. The company cannot assure you that its board of directors will not opt to be subject to such business combination provisions in the future. </P>

&#147;control shares&#148; of a Maryland corporation acquired in a &#147;control share acquisition&#148; have no voting rights except to the extent approved at a special meeting by the affirmative vote of stockholders entitled to cast <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">two-thirds</FONT> of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding shares of stock in a corporation in respect of which any of the following persons is entitled to exercise or direct the exercise of the voting
power of shares of stock of the corporation in the election of directors: (1)&nbsp;a person who makes or proposes to make a control share acquisition, (2)&nbsp;an officer of the corporation or (3)&nbsp;an employee of the corporation who is also a
director of the corporation. &#147;Control shares&#148; are voting shares of stock which, if aggregated with all other such shares of stock 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 directors within one of the following ranges of voting power:
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(1)&nbsp;one-tenth</FONT> or more but less than <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-third,</FONT> <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(2)&nbsp;one-third</FONT> or more but less than a majority, or (3)&nbsp;a majority
or more of all voting power. Control shares do not include shares the acquiring person is then entitled to vote as a result of having previously obtained stockholder approval. A &#147;control share acquisition&#148; means the acquisition of issued
and outstanding control shares, subject to certain exceptions. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A person who has made or proposes to make a control share acquisition, upon satisfaction
of certain conditions (including an undertaking to pay expenses), may compel the company&#146;s board of directors to call a special meeting of stockholders to be held within 50 days of demand to consider the voting rights of the control shares. If
no request for a meeting is made, the corporation may itself present the question at any stockholders&#146; meeting. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If voting rights of control shares
are not approved at the meeting or if the acquiring person does not deliver an acquiring person statement as required by the statute, then, subject to certain conditions and limitations, the corporation may redeem any or all of the control shares
(except those for which voting rights have previously been approved) for fair value determined, without regard to the absence of voting rights for the control shares, as of the date of any meeting of stockholders at which the voting rights of such
shares are considered and not approved or, if no such meeting is held, as of the date of the last control share acquisition by the acquiror. If voting rights for control shares are approved at a stockholders&#146; meeting and the acquiror becomes
entitled to vote a majority of the shares entitled to vote, all other stockholders may exercise appraisal rights. The fair value of the shares as determined for purposes of such appraisal rights may not be less than the highest price per share paid
by the acquiror in the control share acquisition. </P>

as expressed in private letter rulings that are not binding on the IRS except with respect to the particular taxpayers who requested and received those rulings. The sections of the Code and the corresponding Treasury Regulations that relate to
qualification and taxation as a REIT are highly technical and complex. The following discussion sets forth certain material aspects of the sections of the Code that govern the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a REIT and its stockholders. This
summary is qualified in its entirety by the applicable Code provisions, Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code, and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof. Potential tax reforms may result in significant changes to the rules
governing U.S. federal income taxation. New legislation, Treasury Regulations, administrative interpretations and practices and/or court decisions may significantly and adversely affect our ability to qualify as a REIT, the U.S. federal income tax
consequences of such qualification, or the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in us, including those described in this discussion. Moreover, the law relating to the tax treatment of other entities, or an investment in other
entities, could change, making an investment in such other entities more attractive relative to an investment in a REIT. Any such changes could apply retroactively to transactions preceding the date of the change. We have not requested, and do not
plan to request, any rulings from the IRS that we qualify as a REIT or otherwise with respect to the matters contained in this discussion, and the statements in this prospectus are not binding on the IRS or any court. Thus, we can provide no
assurance that the tax considerations contained in this discussion will not be challenged by the IRS or will be sustained by a court if challenged by the IRS. This summary does not discuss any state, local or

qualification and taxation as a REIT depend upon our ability to meet the various qualification tests imposed under the Code, including through actual operating results, asset composition, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership.
Accordingly, no assurance can be given that we have been organized and have operated, or will continue to be organized and operate, in a manner so as to qualify or remain qualified as a REIT. See &#147;&#151;Failure to Qualify&#148; for potential

operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code, and our proposed method of operation will enable us to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code.
It must be emphasized that this opinion was based on various assumptions and representations as to factual matters, including representations made by us in a factual certificate provided by one or more of our officers. In addition, this opinion was
based upon our factual representations set forth in this prospectus. Moreover, our qualification and taxation as a REIT depend upon our ability to meet the various qualification tests imposed under the Code, which are discussed below, including
through actual operating results, asset composition, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership, the results of which have not been and will not be reviewed by Latham&nbsp;&amp; Watkins LLP. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that our
actual results of operations for any particular taxable year have satisfied or will satisfy those requirements. Further, the anticipated U.S. federal income tax treatment described herein may be changed, perhaps retroactively, by legislative,
administrative or judicial action at any time. Latham&nbsp;&amp; Watkins LLP has no obligation to update its opinion subsequent to the date of such opinion. </P>

intended to assist us in continuing to satisfy the share ownership requirements described in conditions (5)&nbsp;and (6) above. A description of the share ownership and transfer restrictions relating to our capital stock (including our common stock)
is contained in the discussion in this prospectus under the heading &#147;Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer.&#148; These restrictions, however, do not ensure that we have previously satisfied, and may not ensure that we will, in all cases, be
able to continue to satisfy, the share ownership requirements described in conditions (5)&nbsp;and (6) above. If we fail to satisfy these share ownership requirements, then except as provided in the next sentence, our status as a REIT will
terminate. If, however, we comply with the rules contained in applicable Treasury Regulations that require us to ascertain the actual ownership of our shares and we do not know, or would not have known through the exercise of reasonable diligence,

Subsidiaries</I></B>. In the case of a REIT that is a partner in a partnership (for purposes of this discussion, references to &#147;partnership&#148; include a limited liability company treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
and references to &#147;partner&#148; include a member in such a limited liability company), Treasury Regulations provide that the REIT will be deemed to own its proportionate share of the assets of the partnership based on its interest in
partnership capital, subject to special rules relating to the 10% asset test described below. Also, the REIT will be deemed to be entitled to its proportionate share of the income of that entity. The assets and gross income of the partnership retain
the same character in the hands of the REIT for purposes of Section&nbsp;856 of the Code, including satisfying the gross income tests and the asset tests. Thus, our pro rata share of the assets and items of income of our operating partnership,
including our operating partnership&#146;s share of these items of any partnership or disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes in which it owns an interest, is treated as our assets and items of income for purposes of applying the
requirements described in this discussion, including the gross income and asset tests described below. A brief summary of the rules governing the U.S. federal income taxation of partnerships is set forth below in &#147;&#151;Tax Aspects of Our
Operating Partnership and its Subsidiary Partnerships and Limited Liability Companies.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have control of our operating partnership and most of its
subsidiary partnerships and intend to operate them in a manner consistent with the requirements for our qualification as a REIT. If we become a limited partner or non- managing member in any partnership and such entity takes or expects to take
actions that could jeopardize our status as a REIT or require us to pay tax, we may be forced to dispose of our interest in such entity. In addition, it is possible that a partnership could take an action which could cause us to fail a gross income
or asset test, and that we would not become aware of such action in time to dispose of our interest in the partnership or take other corrective action on a timely basis. In such a case, we could fail to qualify as a REIT unless we were entitled to
relief, as described below. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We may from time to time own and operate certain properties through wholly-owned subsidiaries that we intend to be treated as

stock and do not elect with the subsidiary to treat it as a &#147;taxable REIT subsidiary,&#148; as described below. A qualified REIT subsidiary is not treated as a separate corporation, and all assets, liabilities and items of income, gain, loss,
deduction and credit of a qualified REIT subsidiary are treated as assets, liabilities and items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the parent REIT for all purposes under the Code, including all REIT qualification tests. Thus, in
applying the U.S. federal income tax requirements described in this discussion, any qualified REIT subsidiaries we own are ignored, and all assets, liabilities and items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of such corporations are treated as
our assets, liabilities and items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit. A qualified REIT subsidiary is not subject to U.S. federal income tax, and our ownership of the stock of a qualified REIT subsidiary will not violate the restrictions on

subsidiary is a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) other than a REIT in which a REIT directly or indirectly holds stock, and that has made a joint election with such REIT to be treated as a
taxable REIT subsidiary. If a taxable REIT subsidiary owns more than 35% of the total voting power or value of the outstanding securities of another corporation, such other corporation will also be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary. Other than
some activities relating to lodging and health care facilities, a taxable REIT subsidiary may generally engage in any business, including the provision of customary or <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-customary</FONT> services to tenants of its
parent REIT. A taxable REIT subsidiary is subject to U.S. federal income tax as a regular C corporation. A REIT is not treated as holding the assets of a taxable REIT subsidiary or as receiving any income that the taxable REIT subsidiary earns.
Rather, the stock issued by the taxable REIT subsidiary is an asset in the hands of the REIT, and the REIT generally recognizes as income the dividends, if any, that it receives from the taxable REIT

mortgages on real property, including &#147;rents from real property,&#148; dividends from other REITs and, in certain circumstances, interest, or certain types of temporary investments. Second, in each taxable year we must derive at least 95% of
our gross income (excluding gross income from prohibited transactions, certain hedging transactions, and certain foreign currency gains) from the real property investments described above or dividends, interest and gain from the sale or disposition
of stock or securities, or from any combination of the foregoing. For these purposes, the term &#147;interest&#148; generally does not include any amount received or accrued, directly or indirectly, if the determination of all or some of the amount
depends in any way on the income or profits of any person. However, an amount received or accrued generally will not be excluded from the term &#147;interest&#148; solely by reason of being based on a fixed percentage or percentages of receipts or

overstated rents paid to us, or any excess deductions or understated income of our taxable REIT subsidiaries. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Asset Tests</I></B>. At the close of
each calendar quarter of our taxable year, we must also satisfy certain tests relating to the nature and diversification of our assets. First, at least 75% of the value of our total assets must be represented by real estate assets, cash, cash items
and U.S. government securities. For purposes of this test, the term &#147;real estate assets&#148; generally means real property (including interests in real property and interests in mortgages on real property or on both real property and, to a
limited extent, personal property), shares (or transferable certificates of beneficial interest) in other REITs, any stock or debt instrument attributable to the investment of the proceeds of a stock offering or a public offering of debt with a term
of at least five years (but only for the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-year</FONT> period beginning on the date the REIT receives such proceeds), debt instruments of publicly offered REITs, and personal property leased in connection with a
lease of real property for which the rent attributable to personal property is not greater than 15% of the total rent received under the lease. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Second,
not more than 25% of the value of our total assets may be represented by securities (including securities of taxable REIT subsidiaries), other than those securities includable in the 75% asset test. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Third, of the investments included in the 25% asset class, and except for certain investments in other REITs, our qualified REIT subsidiaries and taxable REIT
subsidiaries, the value of any one issuer&#146;s securities may not exceed 5% of the value of our total assets, and we may not own more than 10% of the total vote or value of the outstanding securities of any one issuer. Certain types of securities
we may own are disregarded as securities solely for purposes of the 10% value test, including, but not limited to, securities satisfying the &#147;straight debt&#148; safe harbor, securities issued by a partnership that itself would satisfy the 75%
income test if it were a REIT, any loan to an individual or an estate, any obligation to pay rents from real property and any security issued by a REIT. In addition, solely for purposes of the 10% value test, the determination of our interest in the
assets of a partnership in which we own an interest will be based on our proportionate interest in any securities issued by the partnership, excluding for this purpose certain securities described in the Code. From time to time we may own securities
(including debt securities) of issuers that do not qualify as a REIT, a qualified REIT subsidiary or a taxable REIT subsidiary. We intend that our ownership of any such securities will be structured in a manner that allows us to comply with the
asset tests described above. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Fourth, not more than 20% (25% for taxable years beginning after July&nbsp;30, 2008 and before January&nbsp;1, 2018) of the
value of our total assets may be represented by the securities of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries. We, through our operating partnership, own interests in companies that have elected, together with us, to be treated as our taxable REIT
subsidiaries, and we may acquire securities in additional taxable REIT subsidiaries in the future. So long as each of these companies qualifies as a taxable REIT subsidiary of ours, we will not be subject to the 5% asset test, the 10% voting power

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Fifth, not more than 25% of the value of our total assets may be represented by debt instruments of publicly offered REITs to the extent those debt
instruments would not be real estate assets but for the inclusion of debt instruments of publicly offered REITs in the meaning of real estate assets, as described above (e.g., a debt instrument issued by a publicly offered REIT that is not secured
by a mortgage on real property). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The asset tests must be satisfied at the close of each calendar quarter of our taxable year in which we (directly or
through any partnership or qualified REIT subsidiary) acquire securities in the applicable issuer, and also at the close of each calendar quarter in which we increase our ownership of securities of such issuer (including as a result of an increase
in our interest in any partnership that owns such securities). For example, our indirect ownership of securities of each issuer will increase as a result of our capital contributions to our operating partnership or as limited partners exercise any
redemption/exchange rights. Also, after initially meeting the asset tests at the close of any quarter, we will not lose our status as a REIT for failure to satisfy the asset tests at the end of a later quarter solely by reason of changes in asset
values. If we fail to satisfy an asset test because we acquire securities or other property during a quarter (including as a result of an increase in our interest in any partnership), we may cure this failure by disposing of sufficient nonqualifying
assets within 30 days after the close of that quarter. We believe that we have maintained, and we intend to maintain, adequate records of the value of our assets to ensure compliance with the asset tests. If we fail to cure any noncompliance with
the asset tests within the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">30-day</FONT> cure period, we would cease to qualify as a REIT unless we are eligible for certain relief provisions discussed below. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Certain relief provisions may be available to us if we discover a failure to satisfy the asset tests described above after the

our assets at the end of the applicable quarter or (b) $10,000,000, and (ii)&nbsp;we dispose of the nonqualifying assets or otherwise satisfy such tests within (a)&nbsp;six months after the last day of the quarter in which the failure to satisfy the
asset tests is discovered or (b)&nbsp;the period of time prescribed by Treasury Regulations to be issued. For violations of any of the asset tests due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect and that are, in the case of the 5% and 10%
asset tests, in excess of the de minimis exception described above, we may avoid disqualification as a REIT after the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">30-day</FONT> cure period by taking steps including (i)&nbsp;the disposition of sufficient
nonqualifying assets, or the taking of other actions, which allow us to meet the asset tests within (a)&nbsp;six months after the last day of the quarter in which the failure to satisfy the asset tests is discovered or (b)&nbsp;the period of time
prescribed by Treasury Regulations to be issued, (ii)&nbsp;paying a tax equal to the greater of (a) $50,000 or (b)&nbsp;the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate multiplied by the net income generated by the nonqualifying assets, and
(iii)&nbsp;disclosing certain information to the IRS. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Although we believe we have satisfied the asset tests described above and plan to take steps to
ensure that we satisfy such tests for any quarter with respect to which retesting is to occur, there can be no assurance that we will always be successful, or will not require a reduction in our operating partnership&#146;s overall interest in an
issuer (including in a taxable REIT subsidiary). If we fail to cure any noncompliance with the asset tests in a timely manner, and the relief provisions described above are not available, we would cease to qualify as a REIT. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For these purposes, our &#147;REIT taxable income&#148; is computed without regard to the dividends paid
deduction and our net capital gain. In addition, for purposes of this test, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-cash</FONT> income generally means income attributable to leveled stepped rents, original issue discount, cancellation of indebtedness,
or a like-kind exchange that is later determined to be taxable. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, our &#147;REIT taxable income&#148; will be reduced by any taxes we are
required to pay on any gain we recognize from the disposition of any asset we acquired from a corporation that is or has been a C corporation in a transaction in which our tax basis in the asset is less than the fair market value of the asset, in
each case determined as of the date on which we acquired the asset, within the five-year period following our acquisition of such asset, as described above under &#147;&#151;General.&#148; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Except as provided below, a taxpayer&#146;s deduction for net business interest expense will generally be limited to 30% of its taxable income, as adjusted
for certain items of income, gain, deduction or loss. Any business interest deduction that is disallowed due to this limitation may be carried forward to future taxable years, subject to special rules applicable to partnerships. If we or any of our
subsidiary partnerships (including our operating partnership) are subject to this interest expense limitation, our REIT taxable income for a taxable year may be increased. Taxpayers that conduct certain real estate businesses may elect not to have
this interest expense limitation apply to them, provided that they use an alternative depreciation system to depreciate certain property. We believe that we or any of our subsidiary partnerships that are subject to this interest expense limitation
will be eligible to make this election. If such election is made, although we or such subsidiary partnership, as applicable, would not be subject to the interest expense limitation described above, depreciation deductions may be reduced and, as a
result, our REIT taxable income for a taxable year may be increased. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We generally must pay, or be treated as paying, the distributions described above in
the taxable year to which they relate. At our election, a distribution will be treated as paid in a taxable year if it is declared before we timely file our tax return for such year and paid on or before the first regular dividend payment after such
declaration, provided such payment is made during the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">12-month</FONT> period following the close of such year. These distributions are treated as received by our stockholders in the year in which they are paid. This
is so even though these distributions relate to the prior year for purposes of the 90% distribution requirement. In order to be taken into account for purposes of our distribution requirement, except as provided below, the amount distributed must
not be preferential&#151;i.e., every stockholder of the class of stock to which a distribution is made must be treated the same as every other stockholder of that class, and no class of stock may be treated other than according to its dividend
rights as a class. This preferential dividend limitation will not apply to distributions made by us, provided we qualify as a &#147;publicly offered REIT.&#148; We believe that we are, and expect we will continue to be, a &#147;publicly offered
REIT.&#148; However, Subsidiary REITs we may own from time to time may not be publicly offered REITs. To the extent that we do not distribute all of our net capital gain, or distribute at least 90%, but less than 100%, of our &#147;REIT taxable
income,&#148; as adjusted, we will be required to pay regular U.S. federal corporate income tax on the undistributed amount. We believe that we have made, and we intend to continue to make, timely distributions sufficient to satisfy these annual
distribution requirements and to minimize our corporate tax obligations. In this regard, the partnership agreement of our operating partnership authorizes us, as the general partner of our operating partnership, to take such steps as may be
necessary to cause our operating partnership to distribute to its partners an amount sufficient to permit us to meet these distribution requirements and to minimize our corporate tax obligation. </P>

have sufficient cash or other liquid assets to meet these distribution requirements due to timing differences between the actual receipt of income and actual payment of deductible expenses, and the inclusion of income and deduction of expenses in

&#147;deficiency dividends&#148; to our stockholders in a later year, which may be included in our deduction for dividends paid for the earlier year. In that case, we may be able to avoid being taxed on amounts distributed as deficiency dividends,
subject to the 4% excise tax described below. However, we will be required to pay interest to the IRS based upon the amount of any deduction claimed for deficiency dividends. While the payment of a deficiency dividend will apply to a prior year for
purposes of our REIT distribution requirements, it will be treated as an additional distribution to our stockholders in the year such dividend is paid. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Furthermore, we will be required to pay a 4% excise tax to the extent we fail to distribute during each calendar year at least the sum of 85% of our ordinary
income for such year, 95% of our capital gain net income for the year and any undistributed taxable income from prior periods. Any ordinary income and net capital gain on which U.S. federal corporate income tax is imposed for any year is treated as
an amount distributed during that year for purposes of calculating this excise tax. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For purposes of the 90% distribution requirement and excise tax
described above, dividends declared during the last three months of the taxable year, payable to stockholders of record on a specified date during such period and paid during January of the following year, will be treated as paid by us and received

is not held primarily for sale in transactions intended to qualify as like-kind exchanges under the Code. Such like-kind exchanges are intended to result in the deferral of gain for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The failure of any such
transaction to qualify as a like-kind exchange could require us to pay U.S. federal income tax, possibly including the 100% prohibited transaction tax, or deficiency dividends, depending on the facts and circumstances surrounding the particular
transaction. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Tax Liabilities and Attributes Inherited in Connection with Acquisitions</I></B>. From time to time, we or our operating partnership
may acquire other corporations or entities and, in connection with such acquisitions, we may succeed to the historical tax attributes and liabilities of such entities. For example, if we acquire a C corporation and subsequently dispose of its assets
within five years of the acquisition, we could be required to pay the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">built-in</FONT> gain tax described above under &#147;&#151;General.&#148; In addition, in order to qualify as a REIT, at the end of any taxable
year, we must not have any earnings and profits accumulated in a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-REIT</FONT> year. As a result, if we acquire a C corporation, we must distribute the corporation&#146;s earnings and profits accumulated prior to
the acquisition before the end of the taxable year in which we acquire the corporation. We also could be required to pay the acquired entity&#146;s unpaid taxes even though such liabilities arose prior to the time we acquired the entity. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Moreover, we or one of our subsidiaries may from time to time acquire other REITs through a merger or acquisition. If any such REIT failed to qualify as a
REIT for any of its taxable years, such REIT would be liable for (and we or our subsidiary, as applicable, as the surviving corporation in the merger or acquisition, would be obligated to pay) regular U.S. federal corporate income tax on its taxable
income for such taxable years. In addition, if such REIT was a C corporation at the time of the merger or acquisition, the tax consequences described in the preceding paragraph generally would apply. If such REIT failed to qualify as a REIT for any
of its taxable years, but qualified as a REIT at the time of such merger or acquisition, and we acquired such REIT&#146;s assets in a transaction in which our tax basis in the assets of such REIT is determined, in whole or in part, by reference to
such REIT&#146;s tax basis in such assets, we generally would be subject to tax on the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">built-in</FONT> gain on each asset of such REIT as described above if we were to dispose of the asset in a taxable transaction
during the five-year period following such REIT&#146;s requalification as a REIT, subject to certain exceptions. Moreover, even if such REIT qualified as a REIT at all relevant times, we would similarly be liable for other unpaid taxes (if any) of

asset tests (for which the cure provisions are described above), and provided the violation is due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect, these cure provisions generally impose a $50,000 penalty for each violation in lieu of a loss of
REIT status. If we fail to satisfy the requirements for taxation as a REIT in any taxable year, and the relief provisions do not apply, we will be required to pay regular U.S. federal corporate income tax, including any applicable alternative
minimum tax, on our taxable income. Distributions to stockholders in any year in which we fail to qualify as a REIT will not be deductible by us. As a result, we anticipate that our failure to qualify as a REIT would reduce the cash available for
distribution by us to our stockholders. In addition, if we fail to qualify as a REIT, we will not be required to distribute any amounts to our stockholders and all distributions to stockholders will be taxable as regular corporate dividends to the
extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits. In such event, corporate stockholders may be eligible for the dividends-received deduction. In addition, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-corporate</FONT> stockholders, including
individuals, may be eligible for the preferential tax rates on qualified dividend income. <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-corporate</FONT> stockholders, including individuals, generally may deduct up to 20% of dividends from a REIT, other than
capital gain dividends and dividends treated as qualified dividend income, for taxable years beginning before January&nbsp;1, 2026 for purposes of determining their U.S. federal income tax (but not for purposes of the 3.8% Medicare tax), subject to
certain holding period requirements and other limitations. If we fail to qualify as a REIT, such stockholders may not claim this deduction with respect to dividends paid by us. Unless entitled to relief under specific statutory provisions, we would
also be ineligible to elect to be treated as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year for which we lose our qualification. It is not possible to state whether in all circumstances we would be entitled to this statutory relief. </P>

its investments indirectly through subsidiary partnerships and limited liability companies that we believe are and will continue to be treated as partnerships or disregarded entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In general, entities that
are treated as partnerships or disregarded entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes are &#147;pass-through&#148; entities which are not required to pay U.S. federal income tax. Rather, partners of such partnerships are allocated their shares of
the items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the partnership, and are potentially required to pay tax on this income, without regard to whether they receive a distribution from the partnership. We will include in our income our share of
these partnership items for purposes of the various gross income tests, the computation of our REIT taxable income, and the REIT distribution requirements. Moreover, for purposes of the asset tests, we will include our pro rata share of assets held
by our operating partnership, including its share of the assets of its subsidiary partnerships, based on our capital interests in each such entity. See &#147;&#151;Taxation of Our Company&#151;Ownership of Interests in Partnerships, Limited

income tax purposes may nonetheless be taxable as a corporation if it is a &#147;publicly traded partnership&#148; and certain other requirements are met. A partnership will be treated as a publicly traded partnership if its interests are traded on
an established securities market or are readily tradable on a secondary market or a substantial equivalent thereof, within the meaning of applicable Treasury Regulations. We do not anticipate that our operating partnership or any of its subsidiary
partnerships will be treated as a publicly traded partnership that is taxable as a corporation. However, if any such entity were treated as a corporation, it would be required to pay an entity-level tax on its income. In this situation, the
character of our assets and items of gross income would change and could prevent us from satisfying the REIT asset tests and possibly the REIT income tests. See &#147;&#151;Taxation of Our Company&#151;Asset Tests&#148; and &#147;&#151;Income
Tests.&#148; This, in turn, could prevent us from qualifying as a REIT. See &#147;&#151;Taxation of Our Company&#151;Failure to Qualify&#148; for a discussion of the effect of our failure to meet these tests. In addition, a change in the tax status
of our operating partnership, or a subsidiary treated as a partnership or disregarded entity, to a corporation might be treated as a taxable event. If so, we might incur a tax liability without any related cash payment. We believe our operating
partnership and each of its subsidiary partnerships and limited liability companies are and will continue to be treated as partnerships or disregarded entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Allocations of Income, Gain, Loss and Deduction</I></B>. The operating partnership agreement generally provides that items of operating income will be
allocated to us to the extent of the accrued preferred return on our preferred units and then to the holders of common units in proportion to the number of common units held by each such unitholder. Items of operating loss will generally be
allocated first to the holders of common units in proportion to the number of common units held, and then to us with respect to our preferred units. Certain limited partners may, from time to time, guarantee debt of our operating partnership,
indirectly through an agreement to make capital contributions to our operating partnership under limited circumstances. As a result of these guaranties or contribution agreements, and notwithstanding the foregoing discussion of allocations of income
and loss of our operating partnership to holders of units, such limited partners could under limited circumstances be allocated a disproportionate amount of net loss upon a liquidation of our operating partnership, which net loss would have
otherwise been allocable to us. In addition, the partnership agreement further provides that holders of long-term incentive units, class C units and class D units may be entitled to receive special allocations of gain in the event of a sale or
hypothetical sale of assets of our operating partnership prior to the allocation of gain to holders of common units. This special allocation of gain is intended to enable the holders of long-term incentive units, class C units and class D units to
convert such units into common units. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If an allocation of partnership income or loss does not comply with the requirements of Section&nbsp;704(b) of the
Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, the item subject to the allocation will be reallocated in accordance with the partners&#146; interests in the partnership. This reallocation will be determined by taking into account all of the facts and
circumstances relating to the economic arrangement of the partners with respect to such item. The allocations of taxable income and loss of our operating partnership and any subsidiaries that are treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax
purposes are intended to comply with the requirements of Section&nbsp;704(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Tax Allocations
With Respect to the Properties</I></B>. Under Section&nbsp;704(c) of the Code, items of income, gain, loss and deduction attributable to appreciated or depreciated property that is contributed to a partnership in exchange for an interest in the
partnership must be allocated in a manner so that the contributing partner is charged with the unrealized gain or benefits from the unrealized loss associated with the property at the time of the contribution. The amount of the unrealized gain or
unrealized loss generally is equal to the difference between the fair market value or book value and the adjusted tax basis of the contributed property at the time of contribution (this difference is referred to as a
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">book-tax</FONT> difference), as adjusted from time to time. These allocations are solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes and do not affect the book capital accounts or other economic or legal arrangements among
the partners. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Appreciated property was contributed to our operating partnership in exchange for interests in our operating
partnership in connection with the formation transactions. In addition, our operating partnership may, from time to time, acquire interests in property in exchange for interests in our operating partnership. In that case, the tax basis of these
property interests generally will carry over to the operating partnership, notwithstanding their different book (i.e., fair market) value. The partnership agreement requires that income and loss allocations with respect to these properties be made
in a manner consistent with Section&nbsp;704(c) of the Code. Treasury Regulations issued under Section&nbsp;704(c) of the Code provide partnerships with a choice of several methods of accounting for <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">book-tax</FONT>
differences. Depending on the method we choose in connection with any particular contribution, the carryover basis of each of the contributed interests in the properties in the hands of our operating partnership (i)&nbsp;could cause us to be
allocated lower amounts of depreciation deductions for tax purposes than would be allocated to us if any of the contributed properties were to have a tax basis equal to its respective fair market value at the time of the contribution and
(ii)&nbsp;could cause us to be allocated taxable gain in the event of a sale of such contributed interests or properties in excess of the economic or book income allocated to us as a result of such sale, with a corresponding benefit to the other
partners in our operating partnership. An allocation described in clause (ii)&nbsp;above might cause us or the other partners to recognize taxable income in excess of cash proceeds in the event of a sale or other disposition of property, which might
adversely affect our ability to comply with the REIT distribution requirements. See &#147;&#151;Taxation of Our Company&#151;Requirements for Qualification as a REIT&#148; and &#147;&#151;Annual Distribution Requirements.&#148; </P>

any audit adjustment to items of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of a partnership (and any partner&#146;s distributive share thereof) is determined, and taxes, interest, or penalties attributable thereto are assessed and collected, at the
partnership level. It is possible that these rules could result in partnerships in which we directly or indirectly invest, including our operating partnership, being required to pay additional taxes, interest and penalties as a result of an audit
adjustment, and we, as a direct or indirect partner of these partnerships, could be required to bear the economic burden of those taxes, interest, and penalties even though we, as a REIT, may not otherwise have been required to pay additional
corporate-level taxes as a result of the related audit adjustment. Investors are urged to consult their tax advisors with respect to these rules and their potential impact on their investment in our common stock. </P>

earnings and profits allocable to such stock, these distributions will be treated first as a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-free</FONT> return of capital to a U.S. holder to the extent of the U.S. holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in such
shares of stock. This treatment will reduce the U.S. holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in such shares by such amount, but not below zero. Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits and in excess of a U.S.
holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in its shares will be taxable as capital gain. Such gain will be taxable as long-term capital gain if the shares have been held for more than one year. Dividends we declare in October, November, or December of any
year and which are payable to a holder of record on a specified date in any of these months will be treated as both paid by us and received by the holder on December&nbsp;31 of that year, provided we actually pay the dividend on or before

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">U.S. holders that receive taxable stock distributions, including distributions partially payable in our common stock and partially payable in cash, would be
required to include the full amount of the distribution (i.e., the cash and the stock portion) as a dividend (subject to limited exceptions) to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as
described above. The amount of any distribution payable in our common stock generally is equal to the amount of cash that could have been received instead of the common stock. Depending on the circumstances of a U.S. holder, the tax on the
distribution may exceed the amount of the distribution received in cash, in which case such U.S. holder would have to pay the tax using cash from other sources. If a U.S. holder sells the common stock it received in connection with a taxable stock
distribution in order to pay this tax and the proceeds of such sale are less than the amount required to be included in income with respect to the stock portion of the distribution, such U.S. holder could have a capital loss with respect to the
stock sale that could not be used to offset such income. A U.S. holder that receives common stock pursuant to such distribution generally has a tax basis in such common stock equal to the amount of cash that could have been received instead of such
common stock as described above, and has a holding period in such common stock that begins on the day immediately following the payment date for the distribution. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Capital Gain Dividends</I></B>. Dividends that we properly designate as capital gain dividends will generally be taxable to our taxable U.S. holders as
a gain from the sale or disposition of a capital asset held for more than one year, to the extent that such gain does not exceed our actual net capital gain for the taxable year, and may not exceed our dividends paid for the taxable year, including

for six months or less, after applying certain holding period rules, the loss recognized will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent the U.S. holder received distributions from us which were required to be treated as long-term capital

these gains and on designations which we may make, certain capital gain dividends may be taxed at a 25% rate) and (2) &#147;qualified dividend income&#148; generally is 20%. In general, dividends payable by REITs are not eligible for the reduced tax
rate on qualified dividend income, except to the extent that certain holding period requirements have been met and the REIT&#146;s dividends are attributable to dividends received from taxable corporations (such as its taxable REIT subsidiaries) or
to income that was subject to tax at the corporate/REIT level (for example, if the REIT distributed taxable income that it retained and paid tax on in the prior taxable year). Capital gain dividends will only be eligible for the rates described
above to the extent that they are properly designated by the REIT as &#147;capital gain dividends.&#148; U.S. holders that are corporations may be required to treat up to 20% of some capital gain dividends as ordinary income. In addition, <FONT

exchanges by us of United States real property interests, or USRPIs, nor designated by us as capital gain dividends (except as described below) will be treated as dividends of ordinary income to the extent that they are made out of our current or

as effectively connected with the conduct by the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> holder of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, the
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> holder maintains a permanent establishment in the United States to which such dividends are attributable). Under certain treaties, however, lower withholding rates generally applicable to dividends do
not apply to dividends from a REIT. Certain certification and disclosure requirements must be satisfied for a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> holder to be exempt from withholding under the effectively connected income exemption.
Dividends that are treated as effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business generally will not be subject to withholding but will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net basis at the regular rates, in the same manner as dividends paid
to U.S. holders are subject to U.S. federal income tax. Any such dividends received by a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> holder that is a corporation may also be subject to an additional branch profits tax at a 30% rate (applicable

to a &#147;foreign financial institution&#148; or a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;non-financial</FONT> foreign entity&#148; (each as defined in the Code), unless (1)&nbsp;the foreign financial institution undertakes certain diligence and

held by certain &#147;specified United States persons&#148; or &#147;United States owned foreign entities&#148; (each as defined in the Code), annually report certain information about such accounts, and withhold 30% on certain payments to <FONT

payments of dividends on our common stock. While withholding under FATCA would have applied also to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of stock on or after January&nbsp;1, 2019, proposed Treasury Regulations eliminate
FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds entirely. Taxpayers generally may rely on these proposed Treasury Regulations until final Treasury Regulations are issued. Because we may not know the extent to which a distribution is a dividend for
U.S. federal income tax purposes at the time it is made, for purposes of these withholding rules we may treat the entire distribution as a dividend. </P>
