in the Q&amp;A section on page 89 of the Proxy Statement is amended and restated to read as follows:</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">A: To conduct business at the Annual Meeting,
a quorum consisting of a majority of all common shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote must be present in person or represented
by proxy.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Representatives of Computershare Investor Services (Computershare),
the Company&rsquo;s Registrar and Transfer Agent, will count the votes. In determining whether we have a quorum, Computershare counts
all properly submitted proxies and ballots as present and entitled to vote. Because the election of each Trustee requires the affirmative
vote of at least a majority of the common shares outstanding as of the record date, broker non-votes and abstentions with respect to a
particular Trustee nominee will have the same effect as a vote against such Trustee nominee. Because the approval of the proposed amendments
to our Declaration of Trust to eliminate supermajority voting requirements and allow virtual annual meetings of shareholders requires
the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the common shares outstanding as of the record date, broker non-votes and abstentions with
respect to the item will have the same effect as a vote against the item. Broker non-votes and abstentions are not considered votes cast
and will not affect the non-binding advisory &ldquo;Say-on-Pay&rdquo; item or the shareholder proposal item. Abstentions are not considered
votes cast and will not be counted for or against the item to ratify the selection of Deloitte &amp; Touche LLP.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The answer to &ldquo;What Are Broker Non-Votes?&rdquo; in the Q&amp;A
section on page 89 of the Proxy Statement is amended and restated to read as follows:</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left">A: Broker non-votes occur when brokers holding
shares on behalf of beneficial owners do not receive voting instructions from the beneficial holders. If a broker does not have instructions
and is barred by law or applicable rules from exercising its discretionary voting authority in the particular matter, then the shares
will not be voted on the matter, resulting in a &ldquo;broker non-vote.&rdquo; For our Annual Meeting, this means that absent voting instructions,
brokers are not permitted to vote on the election of Trustees, the non-binding advisory &ldquo;Say-on-Pay&rdquo; item, the proposed amendments
to our Declaration of Trust item and the shareholder proposal. If your shares are held by a broker and you wish to vote on those items,
you should complete the voting instruction card you receive from the broker or request one from the broker as necessary. You will also
be able to vote these shares by Internet or telephone. A broker may vote on the ratification of the selection of our independent registered
public accounting firm if the shareholder does not give instructions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 24.5pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 24.5pt">This Supplement does not change the proposals
to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting, which are described in the Proxy Statement. This Supplement should be read in conjunction with
the Proxy Statement. If you have already voted your shares or submitted your proxy, you do not need to take any action unless you wish
to change your vote.</P>
