Organization; Power and Authority. Each Obligor is a corporation or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other legal entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Obligor has the power and authority to own or hold under lease the Properties it purports to own or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact, to execute and deliver this Agreement, the Notes, and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party, as applicable, and to perform the provisions hereof and thereof. No Obligor is subject to any instrument or agreement which would materially prevent it from conducting its business as it is now conducted or as it is contemplated to be conducted. Section 5.2. Authorization, Etc. The Transaction Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other company action on the part of the Obligors party thereto, as applicable, and this Agreement and the Guaranties constitute, and upon execution and delivery thereof each Note will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Obligors party thereto, as applicable, enforceable against such Obligors in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (a) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Section 5.3. Disclosure. The Company, through its agent, BofA Securities, Inc., has delivered to each Purchaser a copy of the Investor Presentation, dated June 29, 2022 (the “Presentation”), relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. The Presentation fairly describes, in all material respects, the general nature of the business and principal properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries. This Agreement, the Presentation, the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5 and the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to the Purchasers by or on behalf of the Company on or prior to July 12, 2022 in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and identified in Schedule 5.3 (this Agreement, the Presentation and such documents, certificates or other writings and such financial statements delivered to each Purchaser being referred to, collectively, as the “Disclosure Documents”), taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made.

-6- Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, since December 31, 2021, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business, Properties or prospects of the Company or any Subsidiary except changes that could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no fact known to the Company that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or in the Disclosure Documents. Section 5.4. Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries; Affiliates. (a) Schedule 5.4 contains (except as noted therein) complete and correct lists of (i) the Company’s Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary, the name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, and the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar Equity Interests outstanding owned by the Company and each other Subsidiary, (ii) the Company’s Affiliates, other than Subsidiaries, and (iii) the Company’s directors and senior officers. (b) All of the outstanding shares of capital stock or similar Equity Interests of each Subsidiary shown in Schedule 5.4 as being owned by the Company and its Subsidiaries have been validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable and are owned by the Company or another Subsidiary free and clear of any Lien that is prohibited by this Agreement. (c) Each Subsidiary is a corporation or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and, where applicable, in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other legal entity and, where applicable, is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each such Subsidiary has the corporate or other power and authority to own or hold under lease the Properties it purports to own or hold under lease and to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact. (d) No Subsidiary is subject to any legal, regulatory, contractual or other restriction (other than the agreements listed on Schedule 5.4 and customary limitations imposed by corporate law or similar statutes) restricting the ability of such Subsidiary to pay dividends out of profits or make any other similar distributions of profits to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that owns outstanding shares of capital stock or similar Equity Interests of such Subsidiary. (e) The Company has no Subsidiaries (excluding Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries which have executed a Guaranty) which individually or in the aggregate own more than 10% in value of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, as determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Each of the Company’s Subsidiaries is a “qualified REIT subsidiary” under Section 856 of the Code. Section 5.5. Financial Statements; Material Liabilities. The Company has delivered to each Purchaser copies of the financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries listed on

-7- Schedule 5.5. All of such financial statements (including in each case the related schedules and notes) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates specified in such Schedule and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods so specified and have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles consistently applied throughout the periods involved except as set forth in the notes thereto (subject, in the case of any interim financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments). The Company and its Subsidiaries do not have any Material liabilities that are not disclosed in the Disclosure Documents. Section 5.6. Compliance with Laws, Other Instruments, Etc. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the Notes and by the Obligors of the other Transaction Documents to which they are a party, as applicable, will not (a) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any Property of any Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, Organizational Document, shareholders agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which such Obligor is bound or by which such Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their Properties may be bound or affected, (b) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to any Obligor or any other Subsidiary or (c) violate any Legal Requirement applicable to any Obligor or any other Subsidiary. Section 5.7. Governmental Authorizations, Etc. No consent, approval or authorization of, or registration, filing or declaration with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by the Company of this Agreement or the Notes or by the Obligors of the other Transaction Documents to which they are a party, as applicable. Section 5.8. Litigation; Observance of Agreements, Statutes and Orders. (a) There are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting any Obligor or any other Subsidiary or any Property of any Obligor or any other Subsidiary in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority that could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (b) No Obligor or any other Subsidiary is (i) in default under any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound, (ii) in violation of any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority or (iii) in violation of any Legal Requirement (including, without limitation, Environmental Laws, the USA PATRIOT Act or any of the other laws and regulations that are referred to in Section 5.16), which default or violation could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Section 5.9. Taxes. Each Obligor has filed all tax returns that are required to have been filed in any jurisdiction, and have paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes and assessments levied upon them or their Properties, assets, income or franchises,

-8- to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent, except for any taxes and assessments (a) the amount of which, individually or in the aggregate, is not Material or (b) the amount, applicability or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which the Company or another Obligor, as the case may be, has established adequate reserves in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Company knows of no basis for any other tax or assessment that could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of U.S. federal, state or other taxes for all fiscal periods are adequate. The U.S. federal income tax liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been finally determined (whether by reason of completed audits or the statute of limitations having run) for all fiscal years up to and including the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. Section 5.10. Title to Property; Leases. The Obligors have good and sufficient title to their respective Properties that individually or in the aggregate are Material, including all such Properties reflected in the most recent audited balance sheet referred to in Section 5.5 or purported to have been acquired by an Obligor after such date (except as sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business), in each case free and clear of Liens prohibited by this Agreement.

In the case of each optional prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8, the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment, together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note. Section 8.5. Purchase of Notes. The Company will not, and will not permit any Affiliate to, purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes except (a) upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes or (b) pursuant to an offer to purchase made by the Company or an Affiliate pro rata to the holders of all Notes at the time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions. Any such offer shall provide each holder of Notes with sufficient information to enable it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer, and shall remain open for acceptance for at least 20 Business Days. If the holders of more than 25% of the unpaid principal amount of the Notes then outstanding accept such offer, the Company shall promptly notify the remaining holders of such fact and the expiration date for the acceptance by holders of Notes of such offer shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give each such remaining holder at least five Business Days from its receipt of such notice to accept such offer. The Company will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of Notes pursuant to this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes.

-21- Section 8.6. Make-Whole Amount. “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings: “Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires. “Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal. “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the “Ask Yield(s)” reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (“Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between the “Ask Yield(s)” Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities with the maturities (i) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (ii) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note. If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The

-22- Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note. “Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (a) such Called Principal into (b) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (i) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (ii) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment. “Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.4 or Section 12.1. “Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires. Section 8.7. Prepayment upon a Change of Control. (a) Promptly and in any event within five Business Days after the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company will give written notice thereof (a “Change of Control Notice”) to the holders of all outstanding Notes, which Change of Control Notice shall (i) refer specifically to this Section 8.7, (ii) describe the Change of Control in reasonable detail and specify the Change of Control Prepayment Date and the Response Date (as respectively defined below) in respect thereof, and (iii) offer to prepay all Notes at the price specified below on the date therein specified (the “Change of Control Prepayment Date”), which shall be a Business Day following the Response Date referred to below and in any event not more than 45 days after the date of such Change of Control Notice. Each holder of a Note will notify the Company of such holder’s acceptance or rejection of such offer by giving written notice of such acceptance or rejection to the Company on or before the date for such notice specified in such Change of Control Notice (the “Response Date”), which specified date shall be not less than 20 days nor more than 30 days after the date of such Change of Control Notice. The Company shall prepay on the Change of Control Prepayment Date all of the Notes held by the holders as to which such offer has been so accepted (it being understood that failure of any holder to accept such offer on or before the Response Date shall be deemed to constitute rejection by such holder), at 100% of the principal amount of each such Note together with interest accrued thereon to the Change of Control Prepayment Date, without premium. If any holder shall reject (or be deemed to have rejected) such offer with respect to any Note held by such holder on or before the Response Date, such holder shall be deemed to have waived its rights under this Section 8.7 to require prepayment of such Note for which such offer was

-23- rejected (or deemed rejected) in respect of such Change of Control but not in respect of any subsequent Change of Control. (b) For purposes of this Section 8.7, any holder of more than one Note may act separately with respect to each Note so held (with the effect that a holder of more than one Note may accept such offer with respect to one or more Notes so held and reject such offer with respect to one or more other Notes so held) (c) “Change of Control” means a change resulting when (a) any Person or Persons acting together which would constitute a Group together with any Affiliates thereof shall at any time either (i) Beneficially Own more than 50% of the aggregate voting power of all classes of Voting Stock of the Parent or (ii) succeed in having sufficient of its or their nominees elected to the Board of Directors of the Parent, such that such nominees, when added to any existing directors remaining on the Board of Directors of the Parent after such election who is an Affiliate of such Person or Group, shall constitute a majority of the Board of Directors of the Parent or (b) the Parent ceases to own, directly or indirectly, at least 51% of the evidence of ownership of the Operating Partnership. As used herein (1) “Beneficially Own” means “beneficially own” as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any successor provision thereto; provided, however, that, for purposes of this definition, a Person shall not be deemed to Beneficially Own securities tendered pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made by or on behalf of such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates until such tendered securities are accepted for purchase or exchange; (2) “Group” means a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; and (3) “Voting Stock” of any Person shall mean capital stock of such Person which ordinarily has voting power for the election of directors (or persons performing similar functions) of such Person, whether at all times or only so long as no senior class of securities has such voting power by reason of any contingency. Section 8.8. Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding (but without limiting the requirement in Section 8.2 and Section 8.7 that the notice of any optional prepayment or prepayment upon a Change of Control, respectively, specify a Business Day as the date fixed for such prepayment), (a) subject to clause (b), any payment of interest on any Note that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day; and (b) any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount on any Note (including principal due on the Maturity Date of such Note) that is due on a date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day. SECTION 9. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS. The Operating Partnership and the Parent, jointly and severally, covenant that from the Execution Date until the Closing and thereafter, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding:

-24- Section 9.1. Compliance with Laws. Without limiting Section 10.4, the Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with all Legal Requirements to which each of them is subject, as applicable, including, without limitation, ERISA, Environmental Laws, the USA PATRIOT Act and the other laws and regulations that are referred to in Section 5.16, and will obtain and maintain in effect all licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations necessary to the ownership of their respective Properties or to the conduct of their respective businesses, in each case to the extent necessary to ensure that non- compliance with such laws, ordinances or governmental rules or regulations or failures to obtain or maintain in effect such licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Parent will comply with all Legal Requirements to maintain, and will at all times qualify as and maintain, its status as a real estate investment trust under Section 856(c)(1) of the Code or any successor provision. Section 9.2. Insurance. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to their respective Properties and businesses against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, on such terms and in such amounts (including deductibles, co-insurance and self-insurance, if adequate reserves are maintained with respect thereto) as is customary in the case of entities of established reputations engaged in the same or a similar business and similarly situated. Section 9.3. Maintenance of Properties. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain and keep, or cause to be maintained and kept, their respective Properties in good repair, working order and condition (other than ordinary wear and tear), so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times, provided that this Section 9.3 shall not prevent the Company or any Subsidiary from discontinuing the operation and the maintenance of any of its Properties if such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business and the Company has concluded that such discontinuance could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Section 9.4. Payment of Taxes and Claims. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, file all tax returns required to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes, assessments, governmental charges, or levies imposed on them or any of their Properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent the same have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent and all claims for which sums have become due and payable that have or might become a Lien on Properties or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary, provided that neither the Company nor any Subsidiary need pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim if the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by the Company or such Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Company or any Subsidiary has established adequate reserves therefor in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles on the books of the Company or such Subsidiary. Section 9.5. Corporate Existence, Etc. Subject to Section 10.2, the Company will at all times preserve and keep its corporate existence in full force and effect. The Company will at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect the corporate existence of each Subsidiary (unless merged into the Company or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary) and all rights and franchises of

-25- the Company and its Subsidiaries unless, in the good faith judgment of the Company, the termination of or failure to preserve and keep in full force and effect such corporate existence, right or franchise could not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Section 9.6. Books and Records. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain proper books of record and account in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and all applicable Legal Requirements of any Governmental Authority having legal or regulatory jurisdiction over the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, keep books, records and accounts which, in reasonable detail, accurately reflect all transactions and dispositions of assets. The Company and its Subsidiaries have devised a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that their respective books, records, and accounts accurately reflect all transactions and dispositions of assets and the Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, continue to maintain such system. Section 9.7. Guarantors. (a) The Company will cause each Subsidiary of the Parent (other than the Operating Partnership) that guarantees or otherwise becomes liable at any time, whether as a borrower or an additional or co-borrower or otherwise, for or in respect of any Indebtedness under any Material Credit Facility to concurrently therewith deliver the following to each holder of a Note: (i) a Guaranty; (ii) a certificate signed by an authorized responsible officer of such Guarantor containing representations and warranties on behalf of such Guarantor to the same effect, mutatis mutandis, as those contained in Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.6, and 5.7 of this Agreement (with respect to such Guarantor and such Guaranty); (iii) all documents as may be reasonably requested by the Required Holders to evidence the due organization, continuing existence and good standing of such Guarantor and the due authorization by all requisite action on the part of such Guarantor of the execution and delivery of such Guaranty and the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations thereunder; and (iv) an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders covering such matters relating to such Guarantor and such Guaranty as the Required Holders may reasonably request. (b) The Company may request in writing that the holders of the Notes release, and upon receipt of such request the holders shall release, a Guarantor from its Guaranty so long as: (i) such Guarantor is not otherwise required to be a party to such Guaranty under the immediately preceding subsection (a) or Section 9.8(b); (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall then be in existence or would occur as a result of such release; (iii) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Company and each other Obligor in the Transaction Documents to which any of them is a party, as applicable, shall be true and correct on and as of the date of such release with the same force and effect as

-26- if made on and as of such date except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and accurate on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances not prohibited under the Transaction Documents; and (iv) each holder of a Note shall have received such written request at least 10 days (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Required Holders) prior to the requested date of release. Delivery by the Company to the holders of the Notes of any such request shall constitute a representation by the Company that the matters set forth in the preceding sentence (both as of the date of the giving of such request and as of the date of the effectiveness of such request) are true and correct with respect to such request. The holders agree to furnish to the Company, upon the Company’s written request and at the Company’s sole cost and expense, any release, termination, or other agreement or document evidencing the foregoing release as may be reasonably requested by the Company. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any lender or agent is paid any remuneration as consideration for the release of such Guarantor as a borrower, co-borrower or guarantor under a Material Credit Facility, then such remuneration shall be concurrently paid, on the same equivalent terms, ratably to each holder of the Notes then outstanding. Section 9.8. Property Pool. (a) The Company will and, subject to Section 9.8(b), the Company’s Subsidiaries will, at all times own (in fee simple title or through an Eligible Ground Lease) a pool (the “Pool”) of assets that are not mortgaged, pledged, hypothecated, or encumbered in any manner, other than Permitted Encumbrances, with an aggregate Value such that the total amount of the Company’s Indebtedness other than Secured Debt outstanding from time to time, shall never be greater than 60% of such Value. The Pool shall have the following characteristics: (i) assets in the Pool shall be completed income producing Industrial Buildings (including properties containing multiple buildings in one industrial park), with parking sufficient to meet all Legal Requirements and consistent with market conditions that will accommodate full occupancy of the building, provided, however, that Los Angeles Corporate Center Office Building in Los Angeles, California, will not be excluded from the Pool because it is not an Industrial Building, (ii) the Company must have received from third party independent consultants, written assessments (including, without limitation, Phase I environmental reports) for each Property in, or to be added to, the Pool that do not disclose any material environmental conditions, structural defects or title defects, or other material risks related to such Property, and (iii) no Property in the Pool shall be owned by the Parent, the Operating Partnership or a Subsidiary which has a provision in its Organizational Documents which has or may have the effect of prohibiting or limiting the Parent’s, the Operating Partnership’s or the Subsidiary’s ability to sell, transfer or convey such Property. If requested by a holder, the Company will provide to such holder written assessments from third party independent environmental consultants for all Pool Properties acquired after the Execution Date. If the Required Holders determine that there are material environmental conditions existing on or risks to such Properties, the Properties will be excluded from the Pool.

-27- (b) If any Property to be included in the Pool is owned by a Subsidiary of the Company, it may be included in the Pool only if: (i) the owner of the Property is either (A) a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Company or (B) if not a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary, then (1) the Value of the Property owned by such Subsidiary (“Partial Subsidiary Real Estate”) to be used in the calculation in clause (a) above shall be as provided in clause (a) multiplied by the cumulative percentage interest of the Subsidiary owned by the Company, and (2) the Company controls all major decisions regarding the Partial Subsidiary Real Estate, including the right to sell or refinance the Partial Subsidiary Real Estate; and (ii) the owner of the Property (A) executes a Guaranty in Proper Form and delivers it to each holder of a Note, and otherwise meets the requirements of Section 9.7(a), and such Guaranty remains in full force and effect, and (B) would not at any time be in default under Section 11(f), (g), or (k), if said subsections were applicable to said owner. (c) If the Company requests inclusion of assets in the Pool that do not meet the requirements of this Section 9.8, then such assets may only be included in the Pool upon the prior written approval of the Required Holders. Section 9.9. Co-Borrowers. (a) The Operating Partnership and the Parent shall be bound jointly and severally with one another to keep, observe and perform the covenants, agreements, obligations and liabilities imposed by this Agreement upon the “Company”, (b) a release of one or more Persons comprising the “Company” shall not in any way be deemed a release of any other Person comprising “Company”, and (c) a separate action hereunder may be brought and prosecuted against one or more of the Persons comprising the “Company” without limiting any liability or impairing the right of a Purchaser or any holder to proceed against any other Person comprising “Company”. Although it will not be a Default or an Event of Default if the Operating Partnership or the Parent fails to comply with any provision of Section 9 on or after the Execution Date and prior to the Closing, if such a failure occurs, then any of the Purchasers may elect not to purchase the Notes on the date of Closing that is specified in Section 3. SECTION 10. NEGATIVE COVENANTS. The Operating Partnership and the Parent, jointly and severally, covenant that from the Execution Date until the Closing and thereafter, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding: Section 10.1. Transactions with Affiliates. The Company will not, and will not permit any other Obligor to, enter into, directly or indirectly, any transaction or group of related transactions (including, without limitation, the purchase, lease, sale or exchange of Properties of any kind or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate (other than the Company or another Obligor), except in the ordinary course and pursuant to the reasonable requirements of the Company’s or such Obligor’s business and upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the

-28- Company or such Obligor than would be obtainable in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate. Section 10.2. Merger, Consolidation, Acquisitions, Sale of Assets, Etc. Neither the Parent nor the Operating Partnership will, nor will either permit any Guarantor to, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, directly or indirectly: (a) consolidate with or merge with any other Person or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its assets to any Person unless the successor formed by such consolidation or the survivor of such merger or the Person that acquires by conveyance, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the assets of the Parent, the Operating Partnership or such Guarantor as an entirety, as the case may be, shall be a solvent corporation or limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the United States or any state thereof (including the District of Columbia), and, if the Parent, the Operating Partnership or such Guarantor, as the case may be, is not such corporation or limited liability company, (i) such corporation or limited liability company shall have executed and delivered to each holder of a Note its assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition of this Agreement, the Notes and/or the relevant Guaranty, as applicable, (ii) such corporation or limited liability company shall have caused to be delivered to each holder of a Note an opinion of nationally recognized independent counsel, or other independent counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders, to the effect that all agreements or instruments effecting such assumption are enforceable in accordance with their terms and comply with the terms hereof and (iii) each Obligor, other than the Obligor that is the subject of the transaction or series of related transactions, reaffirms its obligations under each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party in writing at such time pursuant to documentation that is reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders; or (b) acquire all or substantially all of the assets of any Person other than an acquisition in which the Company acquires all or substantially all of the assets of another Person and the value of the assets acquired is less than 15% of the value of the assets of the Company on a consolidated basis (in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) after such acquisition; or (c) sell, convey or lease all or any substantial part of its assets other than sales or leases executed in the ordinary course of business; and in each case, immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such transaction or each transaction in any such series of transactions, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. No such sale, conveyance, or lease of any substantial part of the assets of the Company shall have the effect of releasing the Company from its liability under this Agreement or the Notes. Section 10.3. Line of Business. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, engage in any business if, as a result, the general nature of the business in which the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, would then be engaged would be substantially

-29- changed from the general nature of the business in which the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, are engaged on the Execution Date and as described in the Presentation. Section 10.4. Economic Sanctions, Etc. The Company will not, and will not permit any Controlled Entity to (a) become (including by virtue of being owned or controlled by a Blocked Person), own or control a Blocked Person or (b) directly or indirectly have any investment in or engage in any dealing or transaction (including any investment, dealing or transaction involving the proceeds of the Notes) with any Person if such investment, dealing or transaction (i) would cause any holder or any affiliate of such holder to be in violation of, or subject to sanctions under, any law or regulation applicable to such holder, or (ii) is prohibited by or subject to sanctions under any U.S. Economic Sanctions Laws. Section 10.5. Financial Tests. The Company will ensure that at all times, on a consolidated basis in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles: (a) the Secured Debt to Total Asset Value Ratio is no greater than 40%; (b) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is not less than 1.40:1.00; (c) the Unencumbered Interest Coverage Ratio is not less than 2.00:1.00; and (d) the Total Liabilities to Total Asset Value Ratio is no greater than 60%. Section 10.6. Liens. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or permit to exist (upon the happening of a contingency or otherwise) any Lien on or with respect to any Property (including, without limitation, any document or instrument in respect of goods or accounts receivable) of the Company or any such Subsidiary, whether now owned or held or hereafter acquired, or any income or profits therefrom, or assign or otherwise convey any right to receive income or profits, unless after giving effect to such action, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, secure any Indebtedness outstanding under or pursuant to any Material Credit Facility unless and until the Notes (and any Guaranty) shall concurrently be secured equally and ratably with such Indebtedness pursuant to documentation in Proper Form including, without limitation, an intercreditor agreement and opinions of counsel to the Company and/or any such Subsidiary, as the case may be, from counsel that is reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders. Section 10.7. Indebtedness. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, create, incur, suffer or permit to exist, or assume or guarantee, directly or indirectly, contingently or otherwise, or become or remain liable with respect to any Indebtedness in excess of the Indebtedness which may be incurred within the limitations contained in Section 9.8 and Section 10.5. Section 10.8. Redemption. Neither the Parent nor the Operating Partnership will at any time buy back, redeem, retire or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any shares of its capital stock or other similar Equity Interests if such action would cause the Company not to be in compliance with this Agreement, and so long as the aggregate market value of such stock or other

-30- Equity Interests when acquired shall not exceed, during any calendar year, 15% of the Company’s Net Worth. Section 10.9. Loans and Investments. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, make any loan, advance, extension of credit or capital contribution to, or make or have any investment in, any Person, or make any commitment to make any such extension of credit or investment, except: (a) travel advances in the ordinary course of business to officers, employees and agents; (b) readily marketable securities issued or fully guaranteed by the United States (or investments or money market accounts consisting of the same); (c) commercial paper rated “Prime 1” by Moody’s or “A1” by S&P (or investments or money market accounts consisting of the same); (d) certificates of deposit or repurchase certificates issued by financial institutions (i) organized and existing under the laws of the United States, or any state, territory, province or possession thereof and (ii) the senior unsecured long-term debt of which is rated at least “A2” by Moody’s or at least “A” by S&P (or investments or money market accounts consisting of the same); provided that all of the foregoing in clauses (b), (c) and (d) not having a maturity of more than one year from the date of issuance thereof; (e) investments in Subsidiaries through which the Company or a Subsidiary, as applicable, invests in real estate assets permitted by this Agreement; (f) investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates that are engaged primarily in the business of investment in and operation of Industrial Buildings (valued at an amount equal to the Value of each Unconsolidated Affiliate’s operating real estate assets multiplied by the Equity Percentage for such Unconsolidated Affiliate); (g) loans, advances, and extensions of credit to Persons (who are not Affiliates of any Obligor) secured by valid and enforceable first and second priority Liens on real estate; (h) investments in undeveloped land; (i) investments in readily marketable securities (valued at the lower of cost or then market price) of another Person, not an Affiliate of any Obligor, traded on a national trading exchange, that is a real estate investment trust under Section 856(c)(1) of the Code, or that is a real estate operating company; (j) investments in Industrial Buildings;

-31- (k) investments in real estate assets that are being constructed or developed (including such assets that such Person has contracted to purchase and has no option to terminate without penalty) to be Industrial Buildings, but are not yet in operation; and (l) miscellaneous investments in other assets not described above not to exceed 5% of Total Asset Value in the aggregate. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or encumber in any manner the loans, advances or extensions of credit made pursuant to Section 10.9(g) or the securities held pursuant to Section 10.9(i). In addition to the limitations set forth above, in no event shall the aggregate value of all of the investments permitted under Sections 10.9(f), (g), (h) (i), (k) (valued at the total actual and budgeted cost of construction or development of such real estate assets (excluding any such assets on which construction has not commenced), including such costs incurred and to be incurred by Unconsolidated Affiliates to the extent of the greater of (i) the Equity Percentage of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company in the applicable Unconsolidated Affiliate times the total actual and budgeted cost of construction or development of the real estate and (ii) the Recourse Amount with respect to such Unconsolidated Affiliate related to the applicable real estate asset), and (l) exceed 30% of the Total Asset Value, after giving effect to such investments. The calculation of the limitation pursuant to the preceding sentence will be made without duplication if a loan or investment shall be included in more than one category described in this Section 10.9. Section 10.10. No Negative Pledge. The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, create, assume, or allow any Negative Pledge in favor of any other Person affecting or relating to, any asset in the Pool; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10.10 shall be deemed or construed to prohibit the Company and any of its Subsidiaries from delivering from time to time a Negative Pledge substantially in the form contained in Section 10.6 of this Agreement in connection with a Material Credit Facility. For purposes of this provision, “Negative Pledge” means, with respect to a given asset, any provision of a document, instrument or agreement (other than this Agreement, the Notes or any Guaranty) which prohibits or purports to prohibit the creation or assumption of any Lien on such asset as security for Indebtedness of the Person owning such asset or any other Person; provided, however, that (i) an agreement that permits an Obligor to encumber its assets so long as such Obligor maintains one or more specified ratios that may limit such Obligor’s ability to encumber its assets but that does not generally prohibit the encumbrance of its assets, or the encumbrance of specific assets, shall not constitute a Negative Pledge and (ii) an agreement similar to Section 10.6 of this Agreement shall not constitute a Negative Pledge. Section 10.11. Restricted Payments. The Parent will not make any Restricted Payment during any calendar quarter which, when added to all Restricted Payments made during the same calendar quarter and the three immediately preceding calendar quarters, exceeds 90% of the Funds From Operations during the immediately preceding four calendar quarters; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit the Parent from (a) making the minimum amount of Restricted Payments required to be made in order for the Parent to comply with the provisions of Section 9.1, or (b) issuing stock in the Parent to a transferor (not an Affiliate of any Obligor) of Property to the Company as a result of said transferor’s election to convert partnership interests in the Operating Partnership to stock in the Parent pursuant to agreements with said transferor allowing said

-32- conversion as a portion of the consideration for the transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Parent will not make any Restricted Payment except as required by clause (a) above; provided that, if, as a result of the occurrence of any Event of Default any of the Notes have been accelerated pursuant to Section 12.1, the Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, make any Restricted Payments to any Person other than to the Company or any Subsidiary. For purposes of this provision, “Restricted Payment” means (i) any dividend or other distribution on any shares of a Person’s capital stock (except dividends payable solely in shares of its capital stock or in rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of its capital stock) or (ii) any payment on account of the purchase, redemption, retirement or acquisition of (x) any shares of a Person’s capital stock or (y) any option, warrant or other right to acquire shares of a Person’s capital stock. Although it will not be a Default or an Event of Default if the Operating Partnership or the Parent fails to comply with any provision of Section 10 before or after giving effect to the issuance of the Notes on a pro forma basis, if such a failure occurs, then any of the Purchasers may elect not to purchase the Notes on the date of Closing that is specified in Section 3 SECTION 11. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. An “Event of Default” shall exist if any of the following conditions or events shall occur and be continuing: (a) the Company defaults in the payment of any principal or Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by declaration or otherwise; or (b) the Company defaults in the payment of any interest on any Note for more than five Business Days after the same becomes due and payable; or (c) the Company or any Guarantor defaults in the performance of or compliance with any term contained herein (other than those referred to in Sections 11(a) and (b)) or in any Guaranty and such default is not remedied within 20 days after the earlier of (i) a Responsible Officer obtaining actual knowledge of such default and (ii) the Company receiving written notice of such default from any holder of a Note (any such written notice to be identified as a “notice of default” and to refer specifically to this Section 11(c)); or (d) (i) any representation or warranty made in writing by or on behalf of the Company or by any officer of the Company in this Agreement or any writing furnished in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby when taken as a whole proves to have been false or incorrect in any material respect on the date as of which made, or (ii) any representation or warranty made in writing by or on behalf of any Guarantor or by any officer of such Guarantor in any Guaranty or any writing furnished in connection with such Guaranty when taken as a whole proves to have been false or incorrect in any material respect on the date as of which made; or (e) (x) the Company or any Subsidiary is in default (as principal or as guarantor or other surety) in the payment of any principal of or premium or make-whole amount or interest on any Indebtedness that is outstanding in an aggregate principal amount of at least

SECTION 12. REMEDIES ON DEFAULT, ETC. Section 12.1. Acceleration. (a) If an Event of Default with respect to the Company described in Section 11(f) or (g) (other than an Event of Default described in clause (i) of Section 11(f) or described in clause (vi) of Section 11(f) by virtue of the fact that such clause encompasses clause (i) of Section 11(f)) has occurred, all the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become immediately due and payable. (b) If any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may at any time at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all the Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable.

-35- (c) If any Event of Default described in Section 11(a) or (b) has occurred and is continuing, any holder or holders of Notes at the time outstanding affected by such Event of Default may at any time, at its or their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare all the Notes held by it or them to be immediately due and payable. Upon any Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 12.1, whether automatically or by declaration, such Notes will forthwith mature and the entire unpaid principal amount of such Notes, plus (i) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including, but not limited to, interest accrued thereon at the applicable Default Rate) and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount determined in respect of such principal amount (to the full extent permitted by applicable law), shall all be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of which are hereby waived. The Company acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a Note has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from repayment by the Company (except as herein specifically provided for) and that the provision for payment of a Make-Whole Amount by the Company in the event that the Notes are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances. Section 12.2. Other Remedies. If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and irrespective of whether any Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, the holder of any Note at the time outstanding may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any Note or Guaranty, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise. Section 12.3. Rescission. At any time after any Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1(b) or (c), the Required Holders, by written notice to the Company, may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Company has paid all overdue interest on the Notes, all principal of and Make-Whole Amount, if any, on any Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and Make-Whole Amount, if any, and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any overdue interest in respect of the Notes, at the applicable Default Rate, (b) neither the Company nor any other Person shall have paid any amounts which have become due solely by reason of such declaration, (c) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant to Section 17, and (d) no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the Notes. No rescission and annulment under this Section 12.3 will extend to or affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Section 12.4. No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, Etc. No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement, any Guaranty or any Note upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Without limiting the

-36- obligations of the Company under Section 15, the Company will pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements. SECTION 13. REGISTRATION; EXCHANGE; SUBSTITUTION OF NOTES. Section 13.1. Registration of Notes. The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration and registration of transfers of Notes. The name and address of each holder of one or more Notes, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of one or more Notes shall be registered in such register. If any holder of one or more Notes is a nominee, then (a) the name and address of the beneficial owner of such Note or Notes shall also be registered in such register as an owner and holder thereof and (b) at any such beneficial owner’s option, either such beneficial owner or its nominee may execute any amendment, waiver or consent pursuant to this Agreement. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person(s) in whose name any Note(s) shall be registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. The Company shall give to any holder of a Note that is an Institutional Investor promptly upon request therefor, a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of Notes. Section 13.2. Transfer and Exchange of Notes. Upon surrender of any Note to the Company at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 18(iii)), for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the relevant name, address and other information for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), within 10 Business Days thereafter, the Company shall execute and deliver, at the Company’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes of the same series (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in the form of Schedule 1.1(a) or 1.1(b), as applicable. Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than the lower of (a) $5,000,000 or (b) the unpaid principal amount of the Note to be transferred. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation set forth in Section 6.2. Section 13.3. Replacement of Notes. Upon receipt by the Company at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 18(iii)) of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and

-37- (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000 or a Qualified Institutional Buyer, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, within 10 Business Days thereafter, the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note of the same series, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. SECTION 14. PAYMENTS ON NOTES. Section 14.1. Place of Payment. Subject to Section 14.2, payments of principal, Make- Whole Amount, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in New York City at the principal office of JPMorgan Chase Bank in such jurisdiction. The Company may at any time, by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal office of the Company in such jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or trust company in such jurisdiction. Section 14.2. Home Office Payment. So long as any Purchaser or its nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding anything contained in Section 14.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, Make- Whole Amount, if any, interest and all other amounts becoming due hereunder by the method and at the address specified for such purpose below such Purchaser’s name in Schedule A, or by such other method or at such other address as such Purchaser shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Company made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, such Purchaser shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Company pursuant to Section 14.1. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by a Purchaser or its nominee, such Purchaser will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Company in exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant to Section 13.2. The Company will afford the benefits of this Section 14.2 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by a Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as the Purchasers have made in this Section 14.2. SECTION 15. EXPENSES, ETC. Section 15.1. Transaction Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Company will pay all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees of a special counsel and, if reasonably required by the Required Holders, local or

-38- other counsel) incurred by the Purchasers and each other holder of a Note in connection with such transactions and in connection with any amendments, waivers or consents under or in respect of this Agreement, any Guaranty, the Notes or any other Transaction Document (whether or not such amendment, waiver or consent becomes effective) within 15 Business Days after the Company’s receipt of any invoice therefor, including, without limitation: (a) the costs and expenses incurred in enforcing or defending (or determining whether or how to enforce or defend) any rights under this Agreement, any Guaranty, the Notes or any other Transaction Document or in responding to any subpoena or other legal process or informal investigative demand issued in connection with this Agreement, any Guaranty, the Notes or any other Transaction Document, or by reason of being a holder of any Note, (b) the costs and expenses, including financial advisors’ fees, incurred in connection with the insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or any other Obligor or in connection with any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Notes and any Guaranty and (c) the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the initial filing of this Agreement and all related documents and financial information with the SVO, provided that such costs and expenses under this clause (c) shall not exceed $2,500 per series. In the event that any such invoice is not paid within 15 Business Days after the Company’s receipt thereof, interest on the amount of such invoice shall be due and payable at the applicable Default Rate commencing with the 16th Business Day after the Company’s receipt thereof until such invoice has been paid. The Company will pay, and will save each Purchaser and each other holder of a Note harmless from, (i) all claims in respect of any fees, costs or expenses, if any, of brokers and finders (other than those, if any, retained by a Purchaser or other holder in connection with its purchase of the Notes), (ii) any and all wire transfer fees that the Company’s bank deducts from any payment under such Note to such holder or otherwise charges to a holder of a Note with respect to a payment under such Note and (iii) any judgment, liability, claim, order, decree, fine, penalty, cost, fee, expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) or obligation resulting from the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the use of the proceeds of the Notes by the Company.

Section 15.3. Survival. The obligations of the Company under this Section 15 will survive the payment or transfer of any Note, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, any Guaranty, the Notes, or any other Transaction Document and the termination of this Agreement.

-39- SECTION 16. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT. All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes, the purchase or transfer by any Purchaser of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of such Purchaser or any other holder of a Note. All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement, the Notes, the Guaranties and the other Transaction Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between each Purchaser and the Company and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. SECTION 17. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. Section 17.1. Requirements. This Agreement and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the Notes may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and the Required Holders, except that: (a) no amendment or waiver of any of Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 21 hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to any Purchaser unless consented to by such Purchaser in writing; and (b) no amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of each Purchaser and the holder of each Note at the time outstanding, (i) subject to Section 12 relating to acceleration or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of principal of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment or method of computation of (x) interest on the Notes or (y) the Make-Whole Amount, (ii) change the percentage of the Purchasers which is, or the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which are, required to consent to any amendment or waiver or the principal amount of the Notes that the Purchasers are to purchase pursuant to Section 2 upon the satisfaction of the conditions to Closing that appear in Section 4, or (iii) amend any of Sections 8 (except as set forth in the second sentence of Section 8.2), 11(a), 11(b), 12, 17 and 20. Section 17.2. Solicitation of Holders of Notes. (a) Solicitation. The Company will provide each Purchaser and each holder of a Note then outstanding with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such Purchaser or holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes or any Guaranty. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 17 or any Guaranty to each Purchaser and each holder of a Note promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite Purchasers or holders of Notes.

-40- (b) Payment. The Company will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security or provide other credit support, to any Purchaser or holder of a Note as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by such Purchaser or holder of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof or of any Guaranty or any Note unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted or other credit support concurrently provided, on the same terms, ratably to each Purchaser or holder of a Note even if such Purchaser or holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment. (c) Consent in Contemplation of Transfer. Any consent given pursuant to this Section 17 or any Guaranty by a holder of a Note that has transferred or has agreed to transfer its Note to the Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Company (or any other Person in connection with, or in anticipation of, an acquisition of, tender offer for, or merger with, the Parent or the Operating Partnership) in connection with such consent shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder, and any amendments effected or waivers granted or to be effected or granted that would not have been or would not be so effected or granted but for such consent (and the consents of all other holders of Notes that were acquired under the same or similar conditions) shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder. Section 17.3. Binding Effect, Etc. Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17 or any Guaranty applies equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Company without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company and any Purchaser or holder of a Note and no delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note or Guaranty or other Transaction Document shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any Purchaser or holder of such Note. Section 17.4. Notes Held by Company, Etc. Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement, any Guaranty, the Notes, or any other Transaction Document, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in any Guaranty, the Notes, or any other Transaction Document to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

This Section 19 shall not prohibit the Company, the Purchasers or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

SCHEDULE 1.2 (to Note Purchase Agreement) FORM OF GUARANTY GUARANTY dated as of [__________ __], 2022, made by [____________________], a [____________________] (the “Guarantor”), in favor of the holders from time to time of the Notes referred to below (collectively the “Obligees”). WHEREAS, EastGroup Properties, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and EastGroup Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Parent” and, together with the Operating Partnership, the “Company”), have entered into a Note Purchase Agreement dated as of August 16, 2022 (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, collectively the “Note Agreement” and terms defined therein and not otherwise defined herein are being used herein as so defined) with the institutional purchasers listed in Schedule A thereto, providing for the issuance and sale by the Company to such purchasers of $150,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of its Senior Notes consisting of $75,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.90% Series A Senior Notes due [__________ __], 2033 (the “Series A Notes”) and $75,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.95% Series B Senior Notes due [__________ __], 2034 (the “Series B Notes”; the Series A Notes and the Series B Notes are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Notes”); and WHEREAS, it is a requirement of the Note Agreement that the Guarantor execute and deliver this Guaranty; and WHEREAS, the Guarantor is a Subsidiary of the Parent and the Guarantor will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the execution and delivery of this Guaranty. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises the Guarantor hereby agrees as follows: Section 1. GUARANTEE. The Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, (i) the punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of the Company arising under the Note Agreement and the Notes, including all extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments and renewals thereof, whether for principal, interest (including, without limitation, interest on any overdue principal, the Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest at the rates specified in the Notes and interest accruing or becoming owing both prior to and subsequent to the commencement of any proceeding against or with respect to the Parent or the Operating Partnership under any applicable Debtor Relief Laws as defined below), Make-Whole Amount, fees, expenses, indemnification or otherwise, and (ii) the due and punctual performance and observance by the Company of all covenants, agreements and conditions on its part to be performed and observed under the Note Agreement and the Notes, (all such obligations are called the “Guaranteed Obligations”); provided that such performance and obligation shall not fall due any earlier than is required of the Company under the Note

S-1.2-2 Agreement and the Notes; and provided further that the aggregate liability of the Guarantor hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not exceed at any time the lesser of (1) the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations and (2) the maximum amount for which the Guarantor is liable under this Guaranty without such liability being deemed to have been a fraudulent transfer (or any analogous concept) under applicable Debtor Relief Laws, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. As used herein, the term “Debtor Relief Laws” means any applicable liquidation, conservatorship, bankruptcy, moratorium, rearrangement, insolvency, reorganization or similar debtor relief laws affecting the rights of creditors generally from time to time in effect. The Guarantor also agrees to pay, in addition to the amount stated above, any and all reasonable expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by any Obligee in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty or in connection with any amendment of this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Guaranty guarantees, to the extent provided herein, the payment of all amounts which constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any other Person to any Obligee but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such Person. Section 2. GUARANTEE ABSOLUTE. The obligations of the Guarantor under Section 1 of this Guaranty constitute a present and continuing guaranty of payment and not of collectability and the Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Note Agreement and the Notes, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Obligee with respect thereto. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Parent or the Operating Partnership or any other Person liable for the Guaranteed Obligations or whether the Parent or the Operating Partnership or any other such Person is joined in any such action or actions. To the extent permitted by law, the liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be primary, absolute, irrevocable, and unconditional irrespective of: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Guaranteed Obligation, the Note Agreement, any Note, any other Guaranty or any agreement or instrument relating thereto; (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the Note Agreement, any Note or any other Guaranty; (iii) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure by any other Person liable, or any other guarantee, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral or any other assets of the Parent or the Operating Partnership or any other Subsidiary;

S-1.2-3 (v) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of the Parent or the Operating Partnership or any other Subsidiary; or (vi) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) that might otherwise constitute a defense, offset or counterclaim available to, or a discharge of, the Parent or the Operating Partnership. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Obligee or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Parent or the Operating Partnership or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. Section 3. WAIVERS. The Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law: (i) promptness, diligence, presentment, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty; (ii) any requirement that any Obligee or any other Person protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against the Parent or the Operating Partnership or any other Person or any collateral; (iii) with respect to any Obligee any defense, offset or counterclaim arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon any action by any other Obligee; (iv) any duty on the part of any Obligee to disclose to the Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operation or condition of any Person and its assets now known or hereafter known by such Obligee; and (v) any rights by which it might be entitled to require suit on an accrued right of action in respect of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or require suit against the Parent or the Operating Partnership, any other guarantor or any other Person. Section 4. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION AND CONTRIBUTION. The Guarantor shall not assert, enforce, or otherwise exercise (A) any right of subrogation to any of the rights, remedies, powers, privileges or Liens of any Obligee or any other beneficiary against the Parent or the Operating Partnership or any other obligor on the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral or other security, or (B) any right of recourse, reimbursement, contribution, indemnification, or similar right against the Parent or the Operating Partnership in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, and the Guarantor hereby waives any and all of the foregoing rights, remedies, powers, privileges and the benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or other security given to any Obligee or any other beneficiary to secure payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, until such time as the Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantor receives any proceeds as a result of the foregoing actions, such proceeds shall be held by the Guarantor in trust for the Obligees and segregated from other funds of the Guarantor.

S-1.2-4 Section 5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Guarantor hereby represents and warrants as follows: (i) The Guarantor is a [corporation/limited liability company/other entity to be described] duly organized, validly existing and, where legally applicable, in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation. The execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Guarantor. (ii) The execution, delivery and performance by the Guarantor of this Guaranty will not (i) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any material property of the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Guarantor under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter, memorandum and articles of association, regulations or by-laws, or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Guarantor is bound or by which the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Guarantor or any of their respective material properties may be bound or affected, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Guarantor or (iii) violate any provision of any statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Guarantor. (iii) The Guarantor and the Company are members of the same consolidated group of companies and the Guarantor will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the execution and delivery of this Guaranty. (iv) After giving effect to the execution and delivery of this Guaranty the Guarantor is solvent and generally able to pay its debts as and when they become payable in the ordinary course. The payment obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty will rank at least pari passu with all other unsecured and unsubordinated Indebtedness of the Guarantor. Section 6. AMENDMENTS, ETC. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty and no consent to any departure by the Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Holders, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all Obligees, (A) limit the liability of or release the Guarantor hereunder (except in the case of releases made pursuant to the terms of the Note Agreement), (B) postpone any date fixed for, or change the amount of, any payment hereunder or (C) change the percentage of Notes the holders of which are required to take any action hereunder.
