connection with the offer and sale of up to 8,578,447 shares (the &#147;Shares&#148;) of common shares of beneficial interest,
par value $0.01 per share (&#147;Common Shares&#148;) of the Company, covered by the Company&#146;s Registration Statement on Form S-3
(Registration No.&nbsp;333-174700) (as the same may be amended and supplemented, the &#147;Registration Statement&#148;) filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;Commission&#148;) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
&#147;Securities Act&#148;). The Shares will be sold pursuant to (i)&nbsp;the Sales Agency Financing Agreement, dated as of January
11, 2010, among the Company, the Operating Partnership and BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC; (ii)&nbsp;the Sales Agency
Financing Agreement, dated as of January&nbsp;11, 2010, among the Company, the Operating Partnership and Citigroup Global

issuance when the Shares are issued.
