RESOLVED, that DDR Corp.’s Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, will be further amended and restated as set forth below:

ARTICLE FOURTH, Division A, Item XI, Section 6 shall be amended and restated as follows:

Section 6. 6.250% Class K Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares. Of the 750,000 authorized Class K Shares, 345,000 shares are designated as a series entitled “6.250% Class K Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares” (hereinafter called “6.250% Class K Preferred Shares”). The 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares shall have the express terms set forth in this Division as being applicable to all Class K Shares as a class and, in addition, the following express terms applicable to all 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares as a series of Class K Shares:

(a) | The annual dividend rate of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares shall be 6.250% of the liquidation preference of $500.00 per share.

(b) | Dividends on the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares shall be payable, if declared, quarterly in arrears on the fifteenth day of each January, April, July and October or, if not a Business Day (as defined in clause (h) of this Section 6), the next succeeding Business Day (each a “Dividend Payment Date”), the first quarterly dividend being payable, if declared, on July 15, 2013 (the “First Dividend Payment Date”). The dividends payable for each full quarterly dividend period on each 6.250% Class K Preferred Share shall be $7.8125.

Dividends for the initial dividend period on the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares, or for any period shorter or longer than a full dividend period on the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The aggregate dividend payable quarterly to each holder of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares shall be rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one cent with $.00005 being rounded upward. Each dividend shall be payable to the holders of record as of the close of business on the applicable record date, which shall be the first day of the calendar month in which the applicable Dividend Payment Date falls or on such other date as shall be fixed by the Corporation’s Board of Directors that is no less than ten nor more than 30 days preceding the applicable Dividend Payment Date (the “Dividend Record Date”), in each case whether or not such day is a Business Day.

(c) | Dividends on 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares shall be cumulative as follows:

| (1) | with respect to shares included in the initial issue of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares and shares issued any time thereafter up to and including the Dividend Record Date for the First Dividend Payment Date, dividends shall be cumulative from the date of the initial issue of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares; and

| (2) | with respect to shares issued any time after the aforesaid Dividend Record Date, dividends shall be cumulative from the Dividend Payment Date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, except that if such shares are issued during the period commencing the day after the Dividend Record Date for the payment of a dividend on 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares and ending on the Dividend Payment Date of that dividend, dividends with respect to such shares shall be cumulative from that Dividend Payment Date.

Accrued but unpaid dividends on 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares shall not bear interest. Any dividend payment made on the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares shall first be credited against the earliest accrued but unpaid dividend due with respect to such shares which remains payable.

(d) | Except as required to preserve the Corporation’s status as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and except pursuant to the Special Optional Redemption Right (as defined in this Section 6(d)), the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares may not be redeemed prior to April 9, 2018.

At any time or from time to time on and after April 9, 2018, the Corporation, at its option upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ written notice, may redeem the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares, in whole or in part, at a redemption price of $500.00 per share plus, in each case, an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to, but not including, the redemption date, without interest (the “Optional Redemption Right”). Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in clause (h) of this Section 6), the Corporation, at its option upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ written notice, may redeem the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares, in whole or in part, within 120 days after the first date on which such Change of Control occurred, at a redemption price of $500.00 per share plus, in each case, an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to, but not including, the redemption date, without interest (the “Special Optional Redemption Right”).

If, prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date (as defined in clause (h) of this Section 6), the Corporation has provided or provides notice of its exercise of any of its redemption rights with respect to the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares (whether pursuant to the Optional Redemption Right or the Special Optional Redemption Right), the holders of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares will not have the Change of Control Conversion Right (as defined in clause (e) of this Section 6) in respect of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares called for redemption.

If less than all of the outstanding 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares are to be redeemed, the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata (as nearly as may be practicable without creating fractional shares), or by any other equitable method determined by the Corporation that will not result in the issuance of any 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit (as defined in Section (a) of Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH).

- 4 -

Notice of redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, as of a date set by the Corporation not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, addressed to the respective holders of record of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation.

| (1) | No failure to give such notice or any defect thereto or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares except as to the holder to whom such notice was defective or not given.

| (2) | A redemption notice which has been mailed in the manner provided herein shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given on the date mailed whether or not the holder received the redemption notice.

In addition to any information required by the applicable rules of any securities exchange upon which the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares may be listed or admitted to trading, each such notice shall state (i) the redemption date; (ii) the redemption price; (iii) the number of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares to be redeemed; (iv) the place or places where certificates, if any, for the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares to be redeemed are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and (v) that dividends in respect of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue on such redemption date. If less than all of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares held by any holder are to be redeemed, the notice shall state the number of such 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares held by such holder to be so redeemed.

| (3) | In the event the Corporation is exercising the Special Optional Redemption Right, the notice referred to above shall also state: (i) that the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares are being redeemed pursuant to the Special Optional Redemption Right in connection with the occurrence of a Change of Control and a brief description of the transaction(s) constituting such Change of Control; and (ii) that the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares to which such notice relates may not be tendered for conversion in connection with the Change of Control by the holder thereof and that each 6.250% Class K Preferred Share so tendered for conversion that is selected, prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date, for redemption will be redeemed on the related redemption date instead of converted on the Change of Control Conversion Date.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding and except as otherwise required by law, the holders of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares at the close of business on a Dividend Record Date will be entitled to receive the dividend payable with respect to their 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the redemption thereof after such Dividend Record Date and on or prior to such Dividend Payment Date or the Corporation’s default in the payment of the dividend due on such Dividend Payment Date. Except as provided in this Section 6, the Corporation will make no payment or allowance for unpaid dividends, whether or not in arrears, on 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares called for redemption.

- 5 -

(e) | 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares shall not be convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or securities of the Corporation, except as provided in this Section 6(e) and/or except in connection with the exercise of the Corporation’s rights pursuant to Section (d) of Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH, Section 4(d) of Division B of this Article FOURTH, or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each holder of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares shall have the right, unless, prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date, the Corporation has provided or provides notice of its election to redeem the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares pursuant to the Optional Redemption Right or Special Optional Redemption Right, to convert some or all of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares held by such holder (the “Change of Control Conversion Right”) on the Change of Control Conversion Date into a number of Common Shares (or equivalent value of Alternative Conversion Consideration (as defined in this Section 6(e)) per 6.250% Class K Preferred Share to be converted (the “Common Shares Conversion Consideration”) equal to the lesser of (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (1) the sum of $500.00 per share plus the amount of any accrued and unpaid dividends to, but not including, the Change of Control Conversion Date (unless the Change of Control Conversion Date is after a Dividend Record Date and prior to the corresponding Dividend Payment Date, in which case no additional amount for such accrued and unpaid dividends will be included in this sum) by (2) the Common Share Price (as defined in clause (h) of this Section 6); and (ii) 57.1102 (the “Share Cap”), subject to the adjustments described in the following paragraph.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding and except as otherwise required by law, the persons who are holders of record of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares at the close of business on a Dividend Record Date will be entitled to receive the dividend payable on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion of those shares after such Dividend Record Date and on or prior to such Dividend Payment Date and, in such case, the full amount of such dividend shall be paid on such Dividend Payment Date to the persons who were the holders of record of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares at the close of business on such Dividend Record Date.

The Share Cap is subject to pro rata adjustments for any share splits (including those effected pursuant to a distribution of Common Shares), subdivisions or combinations (in each case, a “Share Split”) with respect to Common Shares as follows: the adjusted Share Cap as the result of a Share Split will be the number of Common Shares that is equivalent to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the Share Cap in effect immediately prior to such Share Split by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding after giving effect to such Share Split and the denominator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such Share Split.

- 6 -

For the avoidance of doubt, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, the aggregate number of Common Shares (or equivalent Alternative Conversion Consideration, as applicable) issuable in connection with the exercise of the Change of Control Conversion Right shall not exceed 17,133,000 Common Shares (or equivalent Alternative Conversion Consideration, as applicable), subject to increase to the extent the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase additional 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares in the initial public offering of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares is exercised, not to exceed 19,702,950 Common Shares in total (or equivalent Alternative Conversion Consideration, as applicable) (the “Exchange Cap”). The Exchange Cap is subject to pro rata adjustments for any Share Splits on the same basis as the corresponding adjustment to the Share Cap and is subject to increase in the event that additional 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares are designated and issued in the future pursuant to an amendment to these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended.

In the case of a Change of Control pursuant to which Common Shares will be converted into cash, securities or other property or assets (including any combination thereof) (the “Alternative Form Consideration”), a holder of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares will receive upon conversion of such 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares the kind and amount of Alternative Form Consideration that such holder would have owned or been entitled to receive upon the Change of Control had such holder held a number of Common Shares equal to the Common Shares Conversion Consideration immediately prior to the effective time of the Change of Control (the “Alternative Conversion Consideration”; the Common Shares Conversion Consideration or the Alternative Conversion Consideration, as may be applicable to a Change of Control, is referred to as the “Conversion Consideration”).

If the holders of Common Shares have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in the Change of Control, the consideration that the holders of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares will receive will be in the form and proportion of the aggregate consideration elected by the holders of Common Shares who participate in the determination (based on the weighted average of elections) and will be subject to any limitations to which all holders of Common Shares are subject, including, without limitation, pro rata reductions applicable to any portion of the consideration payable in the Change of Control.

No fractional Common Shares will be issued upon the conversion of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares. In lieu of fractional shares, holders shall be entitled to receive the cash value of such fractional shares based on the Common Share Price.

Within 15 days following the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Corporation shall deliver a notice of occurrence of the Change of Control, describing the resulting Change of Control Conversion Right, to the holders of record of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation.

| (1) | No failure to give such notice or any defect thereto or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the conversion of any 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares except as to the holder to whom notice was defective or not given.

- 7 -

| (2) | Each such notice shall state (i) the events constituting the Change of Control; (ii) the date of the Change of Control; (iii) the last date on which the holders of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares may exercise their Change of Control Conversion Right; (iv) the method and period for calculating the Common Share Price; (v) the Change of Control Conversion Date; (vi) that if, prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date, the Corporation has provided or provides notice of its election to redeem all or any portion of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares, holders of such shares will not be able to convert such shares and such shares will be redeemed on the related redemption date, even if such shares have already been tendered for conversion pursuant to the Change of Control Conversion Right; (vii) if applicable, the type and amount of Alternative Conversion Consideration entitled to be received per 6.250% Class K Preferred Share; (viii) the name and address of the paying agent and the conversion agent; (ix) the procedures that the holders of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares must follow to exercise the Change of Control Conversion Right; and (x) the last date on which the holders of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares may withdraw shares surrendered for conversion and the procedures that such holders must follow to effect such a withdrawal.

The Corporation shall issue a press release for publication on the Dow Jones & Company, Inc., Business Wire, PR Newswire or Bloomberg Business News (or, if these organizations are not in existence at the time of issuance of the press release, such other news or press organization as is reasonably calculated to broadly disseminate the relevant information to the public), or post notice on the Corporation’s website, in any event prior to the opening of business on the first Business Day following any date on which the Corporation provides the Change of Control notice described above to the holders of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares.

In order to exercise the Change of Control Conversion Right, a holder of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares shall be required to deliver, on or before the close of business on the Change of Control Conversion Date, the certificates, if any, evidencing the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares to be converted, duly endorsed for transfer, together with a written conversion notice completed, to the Corporation’s transfer agent.

| (1) | Such notice shall state (i) the relevant Change of Control Conversion Date; (ii) the number of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares to be converted; and (iii) that the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares are to be converted pursuant to the applicable provisions of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares.

| (2) | Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares are held in global form, such notice shall comply with applicable procedures of The Depository Trust Company or any other organization acting as depositary for the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares (the “Depositary”).

Holders of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares may withdraw any notice of exercise of a Change of Control Conversion Right (in whole or in part) by a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Corporation’s transfer agent prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date.

- 8 -

| (1) | The notice of withdrawal must state: (i) the number of withdrawn 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares; (ii) if certificated 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares have been issued, the certificate numbers of the withdrawn 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares; and (iii) the number of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares, if any, which remain subject to the conversion notice.

| (2) | Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares are held in global form, such notice of withdrawal shall comply with applicable procedures of the Depositary.

6.250% Class K Preferred Shares as to which the Change of Control Conversion Right has been properly exercised and for which the conversion notice has not been properly withdrawn shall be converted into the applicable Conversion Consideration in accordance with the Change of Control Conversion Right on the Change of Control Conversion Date, unless, prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date, the Corporation has provided or provides notice of its election to redeem such 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares, whether pursuant to the Optional Redemption Right or Special Optional Redemption Right. If the Corporation elects to redeem 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares that would otherwise be converted into the applicable Conversion Consideration on a Change of Control Conversion Date, such 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares shall not be so converted and the holders of such shares shall be entitled to receive on the applicable redemption date $500.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends to, but not including, the redemption date.

The Corporation shall deliver the applicable Conversion Consideration to the applicable holders of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares no later than the third Business Day following the Change of Control Conversion Date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no holder of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares will be entitled to convert such shares to the extent that receipt of Common Shares upon conversion of the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares would cause such holder (or any other person) to exceed either of the ownership limits described in Section (a) of Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH and Section 4(a) of Division B of this Article FOURTH, unless the Corporation provides an exemption from such ownership limits for such holder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions on the ability to convert the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares, any conversion of 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares in violation of the ownership limits described in Section (a) of Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH and Section 4(a) of Division B of this Article FOURTH, or that causes another person to be in violation of such ownership limits, including as a result of the effect of the operation of this provision, shall be construed as causing any 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares that exceed such ownership limits to be deemed Excess Preferred Shares and subject to the provisions applicable to Excess Preferred Shares set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended.

- 9 -

(f) | The amount payable per 6.250% Class K Preferred Share in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation shall be $500.00, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to, but not including, the date of payment.

(g) | All dividend payments made on the 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such 6.250% Class K Preferred Shares for any dividend period, shall, for the purposes of Section 5(b)(1) of this Item X, be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

| If less than all of the outstanding 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares are to be redeemed, the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata (as nearly as may be practicable without creating fractional shares), or by any other equitable method determined by the Corporation that will not result in the issuance of any 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit (as defined in Section (a) of Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH).

- 2 -

| Notice of redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, as of a date set by the Corporation not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, addressed to the respective holders of record of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation.

| (1) | No failure to give such notice or any defect thereto or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares except as to the holder to whom such notice was defective or not given.

| (2) | A redemption notice which has been mailed in the manner provided herein shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given on the date mailed whether or not the holder received the redemption notice.

|  | In addition to any information required by the applicable rules of any securities exchange upon which the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares may be listed or admitted to trading, each such notice shall state (i) the redemption date; (ii) the redemption price; (iii) the number of 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares to be redeemed; (iv) the place or places where certificates, if any, for the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares to be redeemed are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and (v) that dividends in respect of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue on such redemption date. If less than all of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares held by any holder are to be redeemed, the notice shall state the number of such 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares held by such holder to be so redeemed.

| (3) | In the event the Corporation is exercising the Special Optional Redemption Right, the notice referred to above shall also state: (i) that the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares are being redeemed pursuant to the Special Optional Redemption Right in connection with the occurrence of a Change of Control and a brief description of the transaction(s) constituting such Change of Control; and (ii) that the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares to which such notice relates may not be tendered for conversion in connection with the Change of Control by the holder thereof and that each 6.50% Class J Preferred Share so tendered for conversion that is selected, prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date, for redemption will be redeemed on the related date of redemption instead of converted on the Change of Control Conversion Date.

| Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding and except as otherwise required by law, the holders of 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares at the close of business on a Dividend Record Date will be entitled to receive the dividend payable with respect to their 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the redemption thereof after such Dividend Record Date and on or prior to such Dividend Payment Date or the Corporation’s default in the payment of the dividend due on such

- 3 -

| Dividend Payment Date. Except as provided in this Section 6, the Corporation will make no payment or allowance for unpaid dividends, whether or not in arrears, on 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares called for redemption.

(e) | 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares shall not be convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or securities of the Corporation, except as provided in this Section 6(e) and/or except in connection with the exercise of the Corporation’s rights pursuant to Section (d) of Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH, Section 4(d) of Division B of this Article FOURTH, or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended.

| Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each holder of 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares shall have the right, unless, prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date, the Corporation has provided or provides notice of its election to redeem the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares pursuant to the Optional Redemption Right or Special Optional Redemption Right, to convert some or all of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares held by such holder (the “Change of Control Conversion Right”) on the Change of Control Conversion Date into a number of Common Shares (or equivalent value of Alternative Conversion Consideration (as defined in this Section 6(e)) per 6.50% Class J Preferred Share to be converted (the “Common Shares Conversion Consideration”) equal to the lesser of (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (1) the sum of $500.00 per share plus the amount of any accrued and unpaid dividends to, but not including, the Change of Control Conversion Date (unless the Change of Control Conversion Date is after a Dividend Record Date and prior to the corresponding Dividend Payment Date, in which case no additional amount for such accrued and unpaid dividends will be included in this sum) by (2) the Common Share Price (as defined in clause (h) of this Section 6); and (ii) 66.8896 (the “Share Cap”), subject to the adjustments described in the following paragraph.

| Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding and except as otherwise required by law, the persons who are holders of record of 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares at the close of business on a Dividend Record Date will be entitled to receive the dividend payable on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion of those shares after such Dividend Record Date and on or prior to such Dividend Payment Date and, in such case, the full amount of such dividend shall be paid on such Dividend Payment Date to the persons who were the holders of record of 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares at the close of business on such Dividend Record Date.

| The Share Cap is subject to pro rata adjustments for any share splits (including those effected pursuant to a distribution of Common Shares), subdivisions or combinations (in each case, a “Share Split”) with respect to Common Shares as follows: the adjusted Share Cap as the result of a Share Split will be the number of Common Shares that is equivalent to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the Share Cap in effect immediately prior to such Share Split by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding after giving effect to such Share Split and the denominator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such Share Split.

- 4 -

| For the avoidance of doubt, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, the aggregate number of Common Shares (or equivalent Alternative Conversion Consideration, as applicable) issuable in connection with the exercise of the Change of Control Conversion Right shall not exceed 26,756,000 Common Shares (or equivalent Alternative Conversion Consideration, as applicable) (the “Exchange Cap”). The Exchange Cap is subject to pro rata adjustments for any Share Splits on the same basis as the corresponding adjustment to the Share Cap and is subject to increase in the event that additional 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares are designated and issued in the future pursuant to an amendment to these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended.

| In the case of a Change of Control pursuant to which Common Shares will be converted into cash, securities or other property or assets (including any combination thereof) (the “Alternative Form Consideration”), a holder of 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares will receive upon conversion of such 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares the kind and amount of Alternative Form Consideration that such holder would have owned or been entitled to receive upon the Change of Control had such holder held a number of Common Shares equal to the Common Shares Conversion Consideration immediately prior to the effective time of the Change of Control (the “Alternative Conversion Consideration”; the Common Shares Conversion Consideration or the Alternative Conversion Consideration, as may be applicable to a Change of Control, is referred to as the “Conversion Consideration”).

| If the holders of Common Shares have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in the Change of Control, the consideration that the holders of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares will receive will be in the form and proportion of the aggregate consideration elected by the holders of Common Shares who participate in the determination (based on the weighted average of elections) and will be subject to any limitations to which all holders of Common Shares are subject, including, without limitation, pro rata reductions applicable to any portion of the consideration payable in the Change of Control.

| No fractional Common Shares will be issued upon the conversion of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares. In lieu of fractional shares, holders shall be entitled to receive the cash value of such fractional shares based on the Common Share Price (as defined in clause (h) of this Section 6).

| Within 15 days following the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Corporation shall deliver a notice of occurrence of the Change of Control, describing the resulting Change of Control Conversion Right, to the holders of record of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation.

| (1) | No failure to give such notice or any defect thereto or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the conversion of any 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares except as to the holder to whom notice was defective or not given.

- 5 -

| (2) | Each such notice shall state (i) the events constituting the Change of Control; (ii) the date of the Change of Control; (iii) the last date on which the holders of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares may exercise their Change of Control Conversion Right; (iv) the method and period for calculating the Common Share Price; (v) the Change of Control Conversion Date; (vi) that if, prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date, the Corporation has provided or provides notice of its election to redeem all or any portion of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares, holders of such shares will not be able to convert such shares and such shares will be redeemed on the related redemption date, even if such shares have already been tendered for conversion pursuant to the Change of Control Conversion Right; (vii) if applicable, the type and amount of Alternative Conversion Consideration entitled to be received per 6.50% Class J Preferred Share; (viii) the name and address of the paying agent and the conversion agent; (ix) the procedures that the holders of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares must follow to exercise the Change of Control Conversion Right; and (x) the last date on which the holders of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares may withdraw shares surrendered for conversion and the procedures that such holders must follow to effect such a withdrawal.

| The Corporation shall issue a press release for publication on the Dow Jones & Company, Inc., Business Wire, PR Newswire or Bloomberg Business News (or, if these organizations are not in existence at the time of issuance of the press release, such other news or press organization as is reasonably calculated to broadly disseminate the relevant information to the public), or post notice on the Corporation’s website, in any event prior to the opening of business on the first Business Day following any date on which the Corporation provides the Change of Control notice described above to the holders of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares.

| In order to exercise the Change of Control Conversion Right, a holder of 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares shall be required to deliver, on or before the close of business on the Change of Control Conversion Date, the certificates, if any, evidencing the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares to be converted, duly endorsed for transfer, together with a written conversion notice completed, to the Corporation’s transfer agent.

| (1) | Such notice shall state (i) the relevant Change of Control Conversion Date; (ii) the number of 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares to be converted; and (iii) that the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares are to be converted pursuant to the applicable provisions of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares.

| (2) | Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares are held in global form, such notice shall comply with applicable procedures of The Depository Trust Company or any other organization acting as depositary for the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares (the “Depositary”).

| Holders of 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares may withdraw any notice of exercise of a Change of Control Conversion Right (in whole or in part) by a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Corporation’s transfer agent prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date.

- 6 -

| (1) | The notice of withdrawal must state: (i) the number of withdrawn 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares; (ii) if certificated 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares have been issued, the certificate numbers of the withdrawn 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares; and (iii) the number of 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares, if any, which remain subject to the conversion notice.

| (2) | Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares are held in global form, such notice of withdrawal shall comply with applicable procedures of the Depositary.

| 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares as to which the Change of Control Conversion Right has been properly exercised and for which the conversion notice has not been properly withdrawn shall be converted into the applicable Conversion Consideration in accordance with the Change of Control Conversion Right on the Change of Control Conversion Date, unless, prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date, the Corporation has provided or provides notice of its election to redeem such 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares, whether pursuant to the Optional Redemption Right or Special Optional Redemption Right. If the Corporation elects to redeem 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares that would otherwise be converted into the applicable Conversion Consideration on a Change of Control Conversion Date, such 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares shall not be so converted and the holders of such shares shall be entitled to receive on the applicable redemption date $500.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends to, but not including, the redemption date.

| The Corporation shall deliver the applicable Conversion Consideration to the applicable holders of 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares no later than the third Business Day following the Change of Control Conversion Date.

| Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no holder of 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares will be entitled to convert such shares to the extent that receipt of Common Shares upon conversion of the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares would cause such holder (or any other person) to exceed either of the ownership limits described in Section (a) of Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH and Section 4(a) of Division B of this Article FOURTH, unless the Corporation provides an exemption from such ownership limits for such holder.

| Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions on the ability to convert the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares, any conversion of 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares in violation of the ownership limits described in Section (a) of Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH and Section 4(a) of Division B of this Article FOURTH, or that causes another person to be in violation of such ownership limits, including as a result of the effect of the operation of this provision, shall be construed as causing any 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares that exceed such ownership limits to be deemed Excess Preferred Shares and subject to the provisions applicable to Excess Preferred Shares set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended.

- 7 -

(f) | The amount payable per 6.50% Class J Preferred Share in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation shall be $500.00, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to, but not including, the date of payment.

(g) | All dividend payments made on the 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such 6.50% Class J Preferred Shares for any dividend period, shall, for the purposes of Section 5(b)(1) of this Item X, be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

| (ii) | following the closing of any transaction referred to in the foregoing clause (i), neither the Corporation nor the acquiring or surviving entity has a class of common securities (or American Depositary Receipts representing such securities) listed on the NYSE, the NYSE MKT or NASDAQ, or listed or quoted on an exchange or quotation system that is a successor to the NYSE, the NYSE MKT or NASDAQ.

(i) Modification of Exempt Holder Limit and Existing Holder Limit.

| (i) | Subject to the limitations provided in Section 4(k) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH, the Board of Directors may reduce the Exempt Holder Limit if: (A) based on the annual written notice delivered to the Corporation pursuant to Section 4(f)(i) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH, the Beneficial Ownership of the Exempt Holder is less than 17.5% of the outstanding Common Shares, then the Board of Directors may reduce the Exempt Holder Limit to 17.5%; (B) based on the annual written notice delivered to the Corporation pursuant to Section 4(f)(i) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH, the Beneficial Ownership of the Exempt Holder is 7.5% or less of the outstanding Common Shares, then the Board of Directors may reduce the Exempt Holder Limit to 7.5%; or (C) after the Exempt Holder Limit has been reduced to 7.5%, the Board of Directors may further reduce the Exempt Holder Limit to reflect the Beneficial Ownership of the Exempt Holder as set forth on the annual written notice delivered to the Corporation pursuant to Section 4(f)(i) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH.

| (ii) | Subject to the limitations provided in Section 4(k), this Division B of this Article FOURTH, the Board of Directors may increase the Existing Holder Limit if the Board of Directors reduces the Exempt Holder Limit pursuant to Section 4(i)(i) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH.

| (i) | Neither the Ownership Limit nor the Existing Holder Limit may be increased if, after giving effect to such increase, five Beneficial Owners of Common Shares (including the Exempt Holder and the Existing Holder) could Beneficially Own, in the aggregate, more than 49.9% of the outstanding Common Shares.

8

| (ii) | Prior to the modification of any Exempt Holder Limit, Existing Holder Limit or Ownership Limit pursuant to Section 4(i) or Section 4(j) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH, the Board of Directors of the Corporation may require such opinions of counsel, affidavits, undertakings or agreements as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to determine or ensure the Corporation’s status as a REIT.

| (iii) | The Exempt Holder Limit shall not be reduced to a percentage which is less than the Ownership Limit.

| (iv) | The Related Party Limit may not be increased to a percentage which is greater than 9.8%.

(l) Exceptions.

| (i) | The Board of Directors, with a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service or an opinion of counsel, may exempt a Person from the Ownership Limit, the Exempt Holder Limit or the Existing Holder Limit, as the case may be, if such Person is not an individual for purposes of Section 542(a)(2) of the Code and the Board of Directors obtains such representations and undertakings from such Person as are reasonably necessary to ascertain that no individual’s Beneficial Ownership of such Common Shares will violate the Ownership Limit, the Exempt Holder Limit or the Existing Holder Limit, as the case may be, and agrees that any violation or attempted violation will result in such Common Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit, the Exempt Holder Limit or the Existing Holder Limit, as applicable, being transferred to a Trust in accordance with Section 4(c) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH.

| (ii) | The Board of Directors, with a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service or an opinion of counsel, may exempt a Person from the limitation on such Person Constructively Owning Common Shares in excess of the Related Party Limit if such Person does not own and represents that it will not own, directly or constructively (by virtue of the application of Section 318 of the Code, as modified by Section 856(d)(5) of the Code), more than a 9.9% interest (as set forth in Section 856(d)(2)(B) in a tenant of any real property owned or leased by the Corporation, and the Corporation obtains such representations and undertakings from such Person as are reasonably necessary to ascertain this fact and agrees that any violation or attempted violation will result in such Common Shares in excess of 9.8% being transferred to a Trust in accordance with Section 4(c) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH.

| (iii) | The Board of Directors may exempt the Exempt Holder, and any Person who would Constructively Own Common Shares Constructively Owned by the Exempt Holder, from the limitation on the Exempt Holder (or such other

9

|  | Person who would Constructively Own Common Shares Constructively Owned by the Exempt Holder) Constructively Owning Common Shares in excess of the Related Party Limit in its sole discretion based on the facts and circumstances existing at the time of such proposed exemption and the information provided by the Exempt Holder, including, without limitation, information regarding a tenant of any real property owned or leased by the Corporation, of which tenant the Exempt Holder (or such other Person who would Constructively Own Common Shares Constructively Owned by the Exempt Holder) owns, directly or constructively (by virtue of the application of Section 318 of the Code, as modified by Section 856(d)(5) of the Code), more than a 9.9% interest (as set forth in Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code). As a condition to the granting of any such exemption, the Corporation may require that the Exempt Holder provide representations and undertakings as are reasonably necessary to ascertain information regarding the ownership by the Exempt Holder (or such other Person who would Constructively Own Common Shares Constructively Owned by the Exempt Holder) of any interest in a tenant of any real property owned or leased by the Corporation and may impose conditions upon any such exemption as the Board of Directors deems necessary or advisable in order to determine or ensure the Corporation’s status as a REIT, including that any exemption may terminate upon any violation or attempted violation of any such representations, undertakings, conditions or other terms of any agreement between the Company and the Exempt Holder. If, upon any termination of an exemption granted under this Section 4(l)(iii) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH, the Exempt Holder (or such other Person who would Constructively Own Common Shares Constructively Owned by the Exempt Holder) would Constructively Own Common Shares in excess of the Related Party Limit, then the number of Common Shares actually owned by the Exempt Holder (and such other Person who would Constructively Own Common Shares Constructively Owned by the Exempt Holder) in excess of the Related Party Limit will be transferred to a Trust in accordance with Section 4(c) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH such that the Exempt Holder (and such other Person who would Constructively Own Common Shares Constructively Owned by the Exempt Holder) will not Constructively Own Common Shares in excess of the Related Party Limit.

| (iv) | The Exempt Holder will not be deemed to have violated the Exempt Holder Limit if the Exempt Holder’s Beneficial Ownership in excess of the Exempt Holder Limit is solely the result of (A) a stock dividend, stock split or similar transaction effected by the Corporation in which all holders of Common Shares are treated equally or (B) a reduction in the number of Common Shares outstanding, unless and until, in case of either clause (A) or (B) above, such time as the Exempt Holder thereafter becomes the Beneficial Owner of any additional Common Shares (other than as a result of a stock dividend, stock split or similar transaction effected by the Corporation in which all holders of Common Shares are treated equally). In addition, the

10

| Board of Directors may exempt the Exempt Holder from the Exempt Holder Limit should it determine that the Beneficial Ownership of the Exempt Holder does not result in the Corporation being “closely held” within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, this paragraph (iv) shall not be interpreted as a waiver of, or exemption from, the restriction in Section 4(b)(vi).

SECTION 5. Legend. Each certificate for Common Shares shall bear the following legend:

“The Common Shares represented by this certificate are subject to restrictions on transfer for the purpose of the Corporation’s maintenance of its status as a Real Estate Investment Trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Subject to certain provisions of the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, no Person may Beneficially Own Common Shares in excess of 5.0% of the outstanding Common Shares of the Corporation (unless such Person is an Exempt Holder or an Existing Holder), no Person may Constructively Own Common Shares in excess of 9.8% of the outstanding Common Shares of the Corporation and no Person may acquire Beneficial Ownership of any Common Shares after the Effective Date if, as a result of such acquisition, the fair market value of the Shares owned directly and indirectly by Non-U.S. Persons would comprise more than 49% of the fair market value of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. Any Person who attempts to Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Common Shares in excess of the above limitations must immediately notify the Corporation. All capitalized items in this legend have the meanings defined in the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, a copy of which, including the restrictions on transfer, will be sent without charge to each shareholder who so requests. If the restrictions on transfer are violated, certain of the Common Shares represented hereby will be transferred automatically and by operation of law to a Trust and shall be designated Shares-in-Trust.”

SECTION 7.

Shares-in-Trust.

(a) Trust. Any Common Shares transferred to a Trust and designated Shares-in-Trust pursuant to Section 4(c) of Division B of this Article FOURTH shall be held for the exclusive benefit of the Beneficiary. The Corporation shall name a beneficiary of each Trust within five (5) days after discovery of the existence of such Shares-in-Trust. Any transfer to a Trust, and subsequent designation of Common Shares as Shares-in-Trust, pursuant to Section 4(c) of Division B of this Article FOURTH shall be effective as of the close of business on the business day prior to the date of the Transfer or Non-Transfer Event that results in the transfer to the Trust. Shares-in-Trust shall remain issued and outstanding Common Shares and shall be entitled to the same rights and privileges on identical terms and conditions as are all other issued and outstanding Common Shares. When transferred to the Permitted Transferee in accordance with the provisions of Section 7(e) of Division B of this Article FOURTH, such Shares-in-Trust shall cease to be designated as Shares-in-Trust.

11

(b) Dividend Rights. The Trustee, as record holder of Shares-in-Trust, shall be entitled to receive all dividends and distributions as may be declared by the Board of Directors of the Corporation on such Common Shares and shall hold such dividends or distributions in trust for the benefit of the Beneficiary. The Prohibited Owner with respect to Shares-in-Trust shall repay to the Trustee the amount of any dividends or distributions received by it that (i) are attributable to any Common Shares designated as Shares-in-Trust and (ii) the record date of which was on or after the date that such Common Shares became Shares-in-Trust. The Corporation shall take all measures that it determines reasonably necessary to recover the amount of any such dividend or distribution paid to a Prohibited Owner, including, if necessary, withholding any portion of future dividends or distributions payable on Common Shares Beneficially Owned or Constructively Owned by the Person who, but for the provisions of Section 4(c) of Division B of this Article FOURTH, would Beneficially Own or Constructively Own the Shares-in-Trust; and, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Corporation’s receipt or withholding thereof, shall pay over to the Trustee for the benefit of the Beneficiary the dividends so received or withheld, as the case may be.

(c) Rights Upon Liquidation. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of, or any distribution of the assets of, the Corporation, each holder of Shares-in-Trust shall be entitled to receive, ratably with each other holder of Common Shares, that portion of the assets of the Corporation which is available for distribution to the holders of Common Shares. The Trustee shall distribute to the Prohibited Owner the amounts received upon such liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, or distribution; provided, however, that the Prohibited Owner shall not be entitled to receive amounts pursuant to this Section 7(c) of Division B of this Article FOURTH in excess of, in the case of a purported Transfer in which the Prohibited Owner gave value for Common Shares and which Transfer resulted in the transfer of the shares to the Trust, the price per share, if any, such Prohibited Owner paid for the Common Shares and, in the case of a Non-Transfer Event or Transfer in which the Prohibited Owner did not give value for such shares (e.g., if the shares were received through a gift or devise) and which Non-Transfer Event or Transfer, as the case may be, resulted in the transfer of shares to the Trust, the price per share equal to the Market Price on the date of such Non-Transfer Event or Transfer. Any remaining amount in such Trust shall be distributed to the Beneficiary.

(d) Voting Rights. The Trustee shall be entitled to vote all Shares-in-Trust. Any vote by a Prohibited Owner as a holder of Common Shares prior to the discovery by the Corporation that the Common Shares are Shares-in-Trust shall, subject to applicable law, be rescinded and shall be void ab initio with respect to such Shares-in-Trust, and the Prohibited Owner shall be deemed to have given, as of the close of business on the business day prior to the date of the purported Transfer or Non-Transfer Event that results in the transfer to the Trust of the Common Shares Section 4(c) of Division B of this Article FOURTH, an irrevocable proxy to the Trustee to vote the Shares-in-Trust in the manner in which the Trustee, in its sole and absolute discretion, desires.

(e) Designation of Permitted Transferee. The Trustee shall have the exclusive and absolute right to designate a Permitted Transferee of any and all Shares-in-Trust. As reasonably practicable as possible, in an orderly fashion so as not to materially adversely affect the Market Price of the Shares-in-Trust, the Trustee shall designate any Person as Permitted Transferee, provided, however, that (i) the Permitted Transferee so designated purchases for valuable consideration (whether in a public or private sale) the Shares-in-Trust and (ii) the Permitted Transferee so designated may acquire such Shares-in-Trust without such acquisition resulting in

12

a transfer to a Trust and the redesignation of such Common Shares so acquired as Shares-in-Trust under Section 4(c) of Division B of this Article FOURTH. Upon the designation by the Trustee of a Permitted Transferee in accordance with the provisions of this subparagraph, the Trustee of a Trust shall (i) cause to be transferred to the Permitted Transferee that number of Shares-in-Trust acquired by the Permitted Transferee, (ii) cause to be recorded on the books of the Corporation that the Permitted Transferee is the holder of record of such number of Common Shares, and (iii) distribute to the Beneficiary any and all amounts held with respect to the Shares-in-Trust after making that payment to the Prohibited Owner pursuant to Section 7(f) of Division B of this Article FOURTH.

(f) Compensation to Record Holder of Common Shares that Become Shares-In-Trust. Any Prohibited Owner shall be entitled (following discovery of the Shares-In-Trust and subsequent designation of the Permitted Transferee in accordance with Section 4(e) of Division B of this Article FOURTH) to receive from the Trustee the lesser of (i) in the case of (A) a purported Transfer in which the Prohibited Owner gave value for Common Shares and which Transfer resulted in the transfer of the Common Shares to the Trust, the price per share, if any, such Prohibited Owner paid for the Common Shares, or (b) a Non-Transfer Event or Transfer in which the Prohibited Owner did not give value for such Common Shares (e.g., if the shares were received through a gift or devise) and which Non-Transfer Event or Transfer, as the case may be, resulted in the transfer of Common Shares to the Trust, the price per share equal to the Market Price on the date of such Non-Transfer Event or Transfer, and (ii) the price per share received by the Trustee of the Trust from the sale or other disposition of such Shares-in-Trust in accordance with Section 7(e) of Division B of this Article FOURTH. Any amounts received by the Trustee in respect of such Shares-in-Trust and in excess of such amounts to be paid the Prohibited Owner pursuant to this Section 7(f) of Division B of this Article FOURTH shall be distributed to the Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of Section 7(e) of Division B of this Article FOURTH. Each Beneficiary and Prohibited Owner waive any and all claims that they may have against the Trustee and the Corporation arising out of the disposition of Shares-in-Trust, except for claims arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or any failure to make payments in accordance with Section 7 of Division B of this Article FOURTH by, such Trustee or the Corporation.

(g) Purchase Right in Shares-in-Trust. Shares-in-Trust shall be deemed to have been offered for sale to the Corporation, or its designee, at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the price per share in the transaction that created such Shares-in-Trust (or, in the case of devise, gift or Non-Transfer Event, the Market Price at the time of such devise, gift or Non-Transfer Event) and (ii) the Market Price on the date the Corporation, or its designee, accepts such offer. The Corporation shall have the right to accept such offer for a period of ninety days after the later of (i) the date of the Non-Transfer Event or purported Transfer which resulted in such Shares-in-Trust and (ii) the date the Corporation determines in good faith that a Transfer or Non-Transfer Event resulting in Shares-in-Trust has occurred, if the Corporation does not receive a notice of such Transfer or Non-Transfer Event pursuant to Section 4(e) of Division B of this Article FOURTH. Prompt payment of the purchase price shall be made in such reasonable manner as may be determined by the Corporation.

(a) The designation of the series, which may be by distinguishing number, letter or title;

(b) The authorized number of shares of the series, which number the Board of Directors may (except where otherwise provided in the creation of the series) increase or decrease from time to time before or after the issuance thereof (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding);

(c) The dividend rate or rates of the series, including the means by which such rates may be established;

(d) The date or dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative and the dates on which and the period or periods for which dividends, if declared, shall be payable, including the means by which such dates and periods may be established;

(e) The redemption rights and price or prices, if any, for shares of the series;

(f) The terms and amount of the sinking fund, if any, for the purchase or redemption of shares of the series;

(i) Restrictions (in addition to those set forth in Subsection 5(d) or 5(e) of this Item I) on the issuance of shares of the same series or of any other class or series.

The Board of Directors is authorized to adopt from time to time amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, fixing, with respect to each such series, the matters described in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section and is authorized to take such actions with respect thereto as may be required by law in order to effect such amendments.

Section 2. Dividends.

(a) The holders of Class A Shares of each series, in preference to the holders of Common Shares and of any other class of shares ranking junior to the Class A Shares, shall be entitled to receive out of any funds legally available therefor, and when and as declared by the Board of Directors, dividends in cash at the rate or rates for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 above and no more, payable on the dates fixed for such series. Such dividends shall accrue and be cumulative, in the case of shares of each particular series, from and after the date or dates fixed with respect to such series. No dividends shall be paid upon or declared or set apart for any series of the Class A Shares for any dividend period unless at the same time (i) a like proportionate dividend for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date, ratably in proportion to the respective annual dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class A Shares of all series then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividend and (ii) the dividends payable for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date (but, with respect to Noncumulative Shares, only with respect to the then current dividend period), ratably in proportion to the respective dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividends.

(b) So long as any Class A Shares shall be outstanding no dividend, except a dividend payable in Common Shares or other shares ranking junior to the Class A Shares, shall be paid or declared or any distribution be made, except as aforesaid, in respect of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class A Shares, nor shall any Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class A Shares be purchased, retired or otherwise acquired by the Corporation, except out of the proceeds of the sale of Common Shares or other shares of the Corporation ranking junior to the Class A Shares received by the Corporation subsequent to the date of first issuance of Class A Shares of any series, unless:

(1) All accrued and unpaid dividends on Cumulative Shares, including the full dividends for all current dividend periods, shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment thereof set apart;

(2) All unpaid dividends on Noncumulative Shares for the then current dividend period shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment therefor set apart; and

(3) There shall be no arrearages with respect to the redemption of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares of any series from any sinking fund provided for shares of such series in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item I.

(c) The foregoing restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions on, or on the purchase, redemption retirement or other acquisition of, Common Shares or any other shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class A Shares shall be inapplicable to (i) any payments in lieu of issuance of fractional shares thereof, whether upon any merger, conversion, stock dividend or otherwise, (ii) the conversion of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares into Common Shares, or (iii) the exercise by the Corporation of its rights pursuant to Item XIV(d) of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized.

(d) If, for any taxable year, the Corporation elects to designate as “capital gain dividends” (as defined in Section 857 of the Code) any portion (the “Capital Gains Amount”) of the dividends paid or made available for the year to holders of all classes of stock (the “Total Dividends”), then, to the extent permissible under the Code and to the extent it does not cause any dividends to fail to qualify for the dividends paid deduction under Section 561 of the Code, the portion of the Capital Gains Amount that shall be allocable to holders of the Class A Shares shall be the amount that the total dividends paid or made available to the holders of the Class A Shares for the year bears to the Total Dividends.

4

Section 3. Redemption.

(a) Subject to the express terms of each series, the Corporation:

(1) May, from time to time at the option of the Board of Directors, redeem all or any part of any redeemable series of Class A Shares at the time outstanding at the applicable redemption price for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item I; and

(2) Shall, from time to time, make such redemptions of each series of Class A Shares as may be required to fulfill the requirements of any sinking fund provided for shares of such series at the applicable sinking fund redemption price fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item I; and shall in each case pay all accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.

(b) (1) Notice of every such redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the holders of record of the Class A Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or such other time prior thereto as the Board of Directors shall fix for any series pursuant to Section 1 of this Item I prior to the issuance thereof. At any time after notice as provided above has been deposited in the mail, the Corporation may deposit the aggregate redemption price of Class A Shares to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the redemption date, with any bank or trust company in Cleveland, Ohio, or New York, New York, having capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000 named in such notice and direct that there be paid to the respective holders of the Class A Shares so to be redeemed amounts equal to the redemption price of the Class A Shares so to be redeemed, together with such accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, on surrender of the share certificate or certificates held by such holders; and upon the deposit of such notice in the mail and the making of such deposit of money with such bank or trust company, such holders shall cease to be shareholders with respect to such shares; and from and after the time such notice shall have been so deposited and such deposit of money shall have been so made, such holders shall have no rights or claim against the Corporation with respect to such shares, except only the right to receive such money from such bank or trust company without interest or to exercise before the redemption date any unexpired privileges of conversion. In the event less than all of the outstanding Class A Shares are to be redeemed, the Corporation shall select by lot the shares so to be redeemed in such manner as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

(2) If the holders of Class A Shares which have been called for redemption shall not within six years after such deposit claim the amount deposited for the redemption thereof, any such bank or trust company shall, upon demand, pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed amounts and thereupon such bank or trust company and the Corporation shall be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof and to such holders.

5

(c) Any Class A Shares which are (1) redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (2) purchased and delivered in satisfaction of any sinking fund requirements provided for shares of such series, (3) converted in accordance with the express terms thereof, or (4) otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall resume the status of authorized but unissued Class A Shares without serial designation.

(d) Except in connection with the exercise of the Corporation’s rights pursuant to Section (d) of Item XIV of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized, the Corporation may not purchase or redeem (for sinking fund purposes or otherwise) less than all of the Class A Shares then outstanding except in accordance with a stock purchase offer made to all holders of record of Class A Shares, unless all dividends on all Class A Shares then outstanding for all previous and current dividend periods shall have been declared and paid or funds therefor set apart and all accrued sinking fund obligations applicable thereto shall have been complied with.

Section 4. Liquidation.

(a) (1) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, the holders of Class A Shares of any series shall be entitled to receive in full out of the assets of the Corporation, including its capital, before any amount shall be paid or distributed among the holders of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class A Shares, the amounts fixed with respect to shares of such series in accordance with Section 1 of this Item I, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment of the amount due pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation. In the event the net assets of the Corporation legally available therefor are insufficient to permit the payment upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares of the full preferential amount to which they are respectively entitled, then such net assets shall be distributed ratably upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such share is entitled.

(2) After payment to the holders of Class A Shares of the full preferential amounts as aforesaid, the holders of Class A Shares, as such, shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

(b) The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other Corporation, the merger of any other Corporation into it, or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation shall not be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up for the purposes of this Section.

6

Section 5. Voting.

(a) The holders of Class A Shares shall have no voting rights, except as provided in this Section or required by law.

(b) (1) If, and so often as, the Corporation shall be in default in the payment of dividends on any series of Class A Shares at the time outstanding, whether or not earned or declared, for a number of dividend payment periods, whether consecutive or not, which in the aggregate contain at least 540 days, all holders of such Class A Shares, voting separately as a class, together with all Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable under the circumstances described in Subsection 5(c), shall be entitled to elect, as herein provided, a total of two members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation; provided, however, that the holders of such Class A Shares shall not exercise such special class voting rights except at meetings of such shareholders for the election of directors at which the holders of not less than 50% of such Class A Shares are present in person or by proxy; and provided further that the special class voting rights provided for in this paragraph when the same shall have become vested shall remain so vested until all accrued and unpaid dividends on such Class A Shares then outstanding shall have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment, whereupon the holders of such Class A Shares shall be divested of their special class voting rights in respect of subsequent elections of directors, subject to the revesting of such special class voting rights in the event above specified in this paragraph.

(2) In the event of default entitling holders of Class A Shares to elect two directors as specified in paragraph (1) of this Subsection, a special meeting of such holders for the purpose of electing such directors shall be called by the Secretary of the Corporation upon written request of, or may be called by, the holders of record of at least 10% of the Class A Shares upon which such default in the payment of dividends exists and notice thereof shall be given in the same manner as that required for the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to call such special meeting if the annual meeting of shareholders shall be called to be held within 90 days after the date of receipt of the foregoing written request from the holders of Class A Shares. At any meeting at which such holders of Class A Shares shall be entitled to elect directors, holders of 50% of such Class A Shares, present in person or by proxy, shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the vote of the holders of a majority of such shares so present at any such meeting at which there shall be such a quorum shall be sufficient to elect the members of the Board of Directors which such holders of Class A Shares are entitled to elect as herein provided.

7

Notwithstanding any provision of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Code of Regulations of the Corporation or any action taken by the holders of any class of shares fixing the number of directors of the Corporation, the two directors who may be elected by such holders of Class A Shares pursuant to this Subsection shall serve in addition to any other directors then in office or proposed to be elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Nothing in this Subsection shall prevent any change otherwise permitted in the total number of or classifications of directors of the Corporation or require the resignation of any director elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Notwithstanding any classification of the other directors of the Corporation, the two directors elected by such holders of Class A Shares shall be elected annually for terms expiring at the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders.

(3) Upon any divesting of the special class voting rights of the holders of the Class A Shares in respect of elections of directors as provided in this Subsection, the terms of office of all directors then in office elected by such holders shall terminate immediately thereupon. If the office of any director elected by such holders voting as a class becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, removal from office or otherwise, the remaining director elected by such holders voting as a class may elect a successor who shall hold office for the unexpired term in respect of which such vacancy occurred.

(c) If at any time when the holders of Class A Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section the holders of any Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares or Noncumulative Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant hereto by reason of any default in the payment of dividends thereon, then the voting rights of the Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares then entitled to vote shall be combined (with each class of shares having a number of votes proportional to the aggregate liquidation preference of its outstanding shares). In such case, the holders of Class A Shares and of all such other shares then entitled so to vote, voting as a class, shall elect such directors. If the holders of any such other shares have elected such directors prior to the happening of the default or event permitting the holders of Class A Shares to elect directors, or prior to a written request for the holding of a special meeting being received by the Secretary of the Corporation as required above, then a new election shall be held with all such other shares and the Class A Shares voting together as a single class for such directors, resulting in the termination of the term of such previously elected directors upon the election of such new directors.

(d) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class A Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect either of the following:

8

(1) Any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class A Shares which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class A Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class A Shares nor the amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class A Shares; or

(2) The authorization, creation or increase in the authorized number of any shares, or any security convertible into shares, in either case ranking prior to such series of Class A Shares.

(e) In the event, and only to the extent, that (1) Class A Shares are issued in more than one series and (2) Ohio law permits the holders of a series of a class of capital stock to vote separately as a class, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of each series of Class A Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such matters, shall be required for any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class A Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class A Shares nor the Amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series.

Section 6. 9 1/2% Class A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares. Of the 750,000 authorized Class A Shares, 460,000 shares are designated as a series entitled “9 1/2% Class A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares” (hereinafter called “9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares”). The 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares shall have the express terms set forth in this Item I as being applicable to all Class A Shares as a class and, in addition, the following express terms applicable to all 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares as a series of Class A Shares:

The dividends payable for each full quarterly dividend period on each 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Share shall be $5.94.

Dividends for the initial dividend period on the 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares, or for any period shorter or longer than a full dividend period on the 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The aggregate dividend payable quarterly to each holder of 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares shall be rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one cent with $.00005 being rounded upward. Each dividend shall be payable to the holders of record on such record date, no less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the payment date thereof, as shall be fixed from time to time by the Corporation’s Board of Directors.

(c) Dividends on 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares shall be cumulative as follows:

(1) With respect to shares included in the initial issue of 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares and shares issued any time thereafter up to and including the record date for the payment of the first dividend on the initial issue of 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares, dividends shall be cumulative from the date of the initial issue of 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares; and

(2) With respect to shares issued any time after the aforesaid record date, dividends shall be cumulative from the dividend payment date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, except that if such shares are issued during the period commencing the day after the record date for the payment of a dividend on 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares and ending on the payment date of that dividend, dividends with respect to such shares shall be cumulative from that dividend payment date.

(d) Except as required to preserve the Corporation’s status as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares may not be redeemed prior to November 15, 2000. At any time or from time to time on and after November 15, 2000 the Corporation, at its option upon not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days’ written notice, may redeem all or any part of the 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $250.00 per share plus, in each case, an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the redemption date, without interest. The redemption price (other than the portion thereof consisting of accrued and unpaid dividends) is payable solely out of the sale proceeds of other capital shares of the Corporation, which may include any equity securities (including common shares and preferred shares), shares, interests, participation or other ownership interests (however designated) and any rights (other than debt securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities), or options to purchase any of the foregoing.

10

(e) The amount payable per 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Share in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation shall be $250.00, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment.

(f) All dividend payments made on the 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such 9 1/2% Class A Preferred Shares for any dividend period, shall, for the purposes of Section 5(b)(1) of this Item I, be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

All Class B Shares shall be of equal rank and shall be identical, except in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as hereinafter provided, and each share of a series shall be identical with all other shares of such series, except as to the dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative. All Class B Shares shall rank on a parity with the Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares and shall be identical to all Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares except (1) in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as provided in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section 1 and (2) only dividends on the Cumulative Shares are cumulative as set forth herein. Subject to the provisions of Sections 2 through 5, both inclusive, and Item XIII of this Division, which provisions shall apply to all Class B Shares, the Board of Directors hereby is authorized to cause such shares to be issued in one or more series and with respect to each such series to determine and fix prior to the issuance thereof (and thereafter, to the extent provided in clause (b) of this Section), the following:

(i) Restrictions (in addition to those set forth in Subsection 5(d) or 5(e) of this Item II) on the issuance of shares of the same series or of any other class or series.

The Board of Directors is authorized to adopt from time to time amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, fixing, with respect to each such series, the matters described in clauses (a) through (i), both inclusive, of this Section and is authorized to take such actions with respect thereto as may be required by law in order to effect such amendments.

Section 2. Dividends.

(a) The holders of Class B Shares of each series, in preference to the holders of Common Shares and of any other class of shares ranking junior to the Class B Shares, shall be entitled to receive out of any funds legally available therefor, and when and as declared by the Board of Directors, dividends in cash at the rate or rates for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 above and no more, payable on the dates fixed for such series. Such dividends shall accrue and be cumulative, in the case of shares of each particular series, from and after the date or dates fixed with respect to such series. No dividends shall be paid upon or declared or set apart for any series of the Class B Shares for any dividend period unless at the same time (i) a like proportionate dividend for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date, ratably in proportion to the respective annual dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class B Shares of all series

12

then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividend and (ii) the dividends payable for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date (but, with respect to the Noncumulative Shares, only with respect to the then current dividend period), ratably in proportion to the respective dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividends.

Section 3. Redemption.

(a) Subject to the express terms of each series, the Corporation:

(1) May, from time to time at the option of the Board of Directors, redeem all or any part of any redeemable series of Class B Shares at the time outstanding at the applicable redemption price for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item II; and

(2) Shall, from time to time, make such redemptions of each series of Class B Shares as may be required to fulfill the requirements of any sinking fund provided for shares of such series at the applicable sinking fund redemption price fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item II; and shall in each case pay all accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.

(b) (1) Notice of every such redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the holders of record of the Class B Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or such other time prior thereto as the Board of Directors shall fix for any series pursuant to Section 1 of this Item II prior to the issuance thereof. At any time after notice as provided above has been deposited in the mail, the Corporation may deposit the aggregate redemption price of Class B Shares to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the redemption date, with any bank or trust company in Cleveland, Ohio, or New York, New York, having capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000 named in such notice and direct that there be paid to the respective holders of the Class B Shares so to be redeemed amounts equal to the redemption price of the Class B Shares so to be redeemed, together with such accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, on surrender of the share certificate or certificates held by such holders; and upon the deposit of such notice in the mail and the making of such deposit of money with such bank or trust company, such holders shall cease to be shareholders with respect to such shares; and from and after the time such notice shall have been so deposited and such deposit of money shall have been so made, such holders shall have no rights or claim against the Corporation with respect to such shares, except only the right to receive such money from such bank or trust company without interest or to exercise before the redemption date any unexpired privileges of conversion. In the event less than all of the outstanding Class B Shares are to be redeemed, the Corporation shall select by lot the shares so to be redeemed in such manner as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

14

(2) If the holders of Class B Shares which have been called for redemption shall not within six years after such deposit claim the amount deposited for the redemption thereof, any such bank or trust company shall, upon demand, pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed amounts and thereupon such bank or trust company and the Corporation shall be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof and to such holders.

(c) Any Class B Shares which are (1) redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (2) purchased and delivered in satisfaction of any sinking fund requirements provided for shares of such series, (3) converted in accordance with the express terms thereof, or (4) otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall resume the status of authorized but unissued Class B Shares without serial designation.

(d) Except in connection with the exercise of the Corporation’s rights pursuant to Section (d) of Item XIV of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized, the Corporation may not purchase or redeem (for sinking fund purposes or otherwise) less than all of the Class B Shares then outstanding except in accordance with a stock purchase offer made to all holders of record of Class B Shares, unless all dividends on all Class B Shares then outstanding for all previous and current dividend periods shall have been declared and paid or funds therefor set apart and all accrued sinking fund obligations applicable thereto shall have been complied with.

Section 4. Liquidation.

(a) (1) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, the holders of Class B Shares of any series shall be entitled to receive in full out of the assets of the Corporation, including its capital, before any amount shall be paid or distributed among the holders of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class B Shares, the amounts fixed with respect to shares of such series in accordance with Section 1 of this Item II, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment of the amount due pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation. In the event the net assets of the Corporation legally available therefor are insufficient to permit the payment upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares of the full preferential amount to which they are respectively entitled, then such net assets shall be distributed ratably upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such share is entitled.

15

(2) After payment to the holders of Class B Shares of the full preferential amounts as aforesaid, the holders of Class B Shares, as such, shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

(b) The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other Corporation, the merger of any other corporation into it, or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation shall not be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up for the purposes of this Section.

Section 5. Voting.

(a) The holders of Class B Shares shall have no voting rights, except as provided in this Section or required by law.

(b) (1) If, and so often as, the Corporation shall be in default in the payment of dividends on any series of Class B Shares at the time outstanding, whether or not earned or declared, for a number of dividend payment periods, whether consecutive or not, which in the aggregate contain at least 540 days, all holders of Class B Shares, voting separately as a class, together with all Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable under the circumstances described in Subsection 5(c), shall be entitled to elect, as herein provided, a total of two members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation; provided, however, that the holders of such Class B Shares shall not exercise such special class voting rights except at meetings of such shareholders for the election of directors at which the holders of not less than 50% of such Class B Shares are present in person or by proxy; and provided further that the special class voting rights provided for in this paragraph when the same shall have become vested shall remain so vested until all accrued and unpaid dividends on such Class B Shares then outstanding shall have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient therefor set aside for payment, whereupon the holders of such Class B Shares shall be divested of their special class voting rights in respect of subsequent elections of directors, subject to the revesting of such special class voting rights in the event above specified in this paragraph.

(2) In the event of default entitling holders of Class B Shares to elect two directors as specified in paragraph (1) of this Subsection, a special meeting of such holders for the purpose of electing such directors shall be called by the Secretary of the Corporation upon written request of, or may be called by, the holders of record of at least 10% of the Class B Shares upon which such default in the payment of dividends exists and notice thereof shall be given in the same manner as that required for the annual meeting of shareholders; provided,

16

however, that the Corporation shall not be required to call such special meeting if the annual meeting of shareholders shall be called to be held within 90 days after the date of receipt of the foregoing written request from the holders of Class B Shares. At any meeting at which such holders of Class B Shares shall be entitled to elect directors, holders of 50% of such Class B Shares, present in person or by proxy, shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the vote of the holders of a majority of such shares so present at any such meeting at which there shall be such a quorum shall be sufficient to elect the members of the Board of Directors which such holders of Class B Shares are entitled to elect as herein provided. Notwithstanding any provision of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Code of Regulations of the Corporation or any action taken by the holders of any class of shares fixing the number of directors of the Corporation, the two directors who may be elected by such holders of Class B Shares pursuant to this Subsection shall serve in addition to any other directors then in office or proposed to be elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Nothing in this Subsection shall prevent any change otherwise permitted in the total number of or classifications of directors of the Corporation nor require the resignation of any director elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Notwithstanding any classification of the other directors of the Corporation, the two directors elected by such holders of Class B Shares shall be elected annually for terms expiring at the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders.

(3) Upon any divesting of the special class voting rights of the holders of the Class B Shares in respect of elections of directors as provided in this Subsection, the terms of office of all directors then in office elected by such holders shall terminate immediately thereupon. If the office of any director elected by such holders voting as a class becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, removal from office or otherwise, the remaining director elected by such holders voting as a class may elect a successor who shall hold office for the unexpired term in respect of which such vacancy occurred.

(c) If at any time when the holders of Class B Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section the holders of any Class A Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares or Noncumulative Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant hereto by reason of any default in the payment of dividends thereon, then the voting rights of the Cumulative Shares and the Noncumulative Shares then entitled to vote shall be combined (with class of shares having a number of votes proportional to the aggregate liquidation preference of its outstanding shares). In such case, the holders of Class B Shares and of all such other shares then entitled so to vote, voting as a class, shall elect such directors. If the holders of any such other shares have elected such directors prior to the happening of the default or event permitting the holders of Class B Shares to elect directors, or prior to a written request for the holding of a special meeting being received by the Secretary of the Corporation as required above, then a new election shall be held with all such other shares and the Class B Shares voting together as a single class for such directors, resulting in the termination of the term of such previously elected directors upon the election of such new directors.

17

(d) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class B Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect either of the following:

(1) Any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class B Shares which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class B Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class B Shares nor the amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class B Shares; or

(2) The authorization, creation or increase in the authorized number of any shares, or any security convertible into shares, in either case ranking prior to such Class B Shares.

(e) In the event, and only to the extent, that (1) Class B Shares are issued in more than one series and (2) Ohio law permits the holders of a series of a class of capital stock to vote separately as a class, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of each series of Class B Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such matters, shall be required for any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class B Shares or of any shares remaining on a parity with or junior to the Class B Shares nor the amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series.

18

Section 6. 9.44% Class B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares. Of the 750,000 authorized Class B Shares, 177,500 shares are designated as a series entitled “9.44% Class B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares” (hereinafter called “9.44% Class B Preferred Shares”). The 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares shall have the express terms set forth in this Item II as being applicable to all Class B Shares as a class and, in addition, the following express terms applicable to all 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares as a series of Class B Shares:

(a) The annual dividend rate of the 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares shall be 9.44% of the liquidation preference of $250.00 per share.

(b) Dividends on the 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares shall be payable, if declared, quarterly on or about the 15th day of March, June, September, and December each year, the first quarterly dividend being payable, if declared, on March 15, 1996. The dividends payable for each full quarterly dividend period on each 9.44% Class B Preferred Share shall be $5.90.

Dividends for the initial dividend period on the 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares, or for any period shorter or longer than a full dividend period on the 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The aggregate dividend payable quarterly to each holder of 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares shall be rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one cent with $.00005 being rounded upward. Each dividend shall be payable to the holders of record on such record date, no less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the payment date thereof, as shall be fixed from time to time by the Corporation’s Board of Directors.

(c) Dividends on 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares shall be cumulative as follows:

(1) With respect to shares included in the initial issue of 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares and shares issued any time thereafter up to and including the record date for the payment of the first dividend on the initial issue of 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares, dividends shall be cumulative from the date of the initial issue of 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares; and

(2) With respect to shares issued any time after the aforesaid record date, dividends shall be cumulative from the dividend payment date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, except that if such shares are issued during the period commencing the day after the record date for the payment of a dividend on 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares and ending on the payment date of that dividend, dividends with respect to such shares shall be cumulative from that dividend payment date.

(d) Except as required to preserve the Corporation’s status as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares may not be redeemed prior to December 26,

19

2000. At any time or from time to time on and after December 26, 2000 the Corporation, at its option upon not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days’ written notice, may redeem all or any part of the 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $250.00 per share plus, in each case, an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the redemption date, without interest. The redemption price (other than the portion thereof consisting of accrued and unpaid dividends) is payable solely out of the sale proceeds of other capital shares of the Corporation, which may include any equity securities (including common shares and preferred shares), shares, interests, participation or other ownership interests (however designated) and any rights (other than debt securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities), or options to purchase any of the foregoing.

(e) The amount payable per 9.44% Class B Preferred Share in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation shall be $250.00, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment.

(f) All dividend payments made on the 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such 9.44% Class B Preferred Shares for any dividend period, shall, for the purposes of Section 5(b)(1) of this Item II, be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

III. The Class C Cumulative Preferred Shares. The Class C Shares shall have the following express terms:

Section 1. Series. The Class C Shares may be issued from time to time in one or more series. All Class C Shares shall be of equal rank and shall be identical, except in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as hereinafter provided, and each share of a series shall be identical with all other shares of such series, except as to the dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative. All Class C Shares shall rank on a parity with the Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares and shall be identical to all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares except (1) in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as provided in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section 1 and (2) only dividends on Cumulative Shares shall be cumulative as set forth herein. Subject to the provisions of Sections 2 through 5, both inclusive, and Item XIII of this Division, which provisions shall apply to all Class C Shares, the Board of Directors hereby is authorized to cause such shares to be issued in one or more series and, with respect to each such series to determine and fix prior to the issuance thereof (and thereafter, to the extent provided in clause (b) of this Section), the following:

20

(a) The designation of the series, which may be by distinguishing number, letter or title;

(b) The authorized number of shares of the series, which number the Board of Directors may (except where otherwise provided in the creation of the series) increase or decrease from time to time before or after the issuance thereof (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding);

(c) The dividend rate or rates of the series, including the means by which such rates may be established;

(d) The date or dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative and the dates on which and the period or periods for which dividends, if declared, shall be payable, including the means by which such dates and periods may be established;

(e) The redemption rights and price or prices, if any, for shares of the series;

(f) The terms and amount of the sinking fund, if any, for the purchase or redemption of shares of the series;

(g) The amounts payable on shares of the series in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation;

(h) Whether the shares of the series shall be convertible into Common Shares or shares of any other class and, if so, the conversion rate or rates or price or prices, any adjustments thereof and all other terms and conditions upon which such conversion may be made; and

(i) Restrictions (in addition to those set forth in Subsection 5(d) or 5(e) of this Item III) on the issuance of shares of the same series or of any other class or series.

The Board of Directors is authorized to adopt from time to time amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, fixing, with respect to each such series, the matters described in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section and is authorized to take such actions with respect thereto as may be required by law in order to effect such amendments.

Section 2. Dividends.

(a) The holders of Class C Shares of each series, in preference to the holders of Common Shares and of any other class of shares ranking junior to the Class C Shares, shall be entitled to receive out of any funds legally available therefor, and when and as declared by the Board of Directors, dividends in cash at the rate or rates for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of

21

Section 1 above and no more, payable on the dates fixed for such series. Such dividends shall accrue and be cumulative, in the case of shares of each particular series, from and after the date or dates fixed with respect to such series. No dividends shall be paid upon or declared or set apart for any series of the Class C Shares for any dividend period unless at the same time (i) a like proportionate dividend for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date, ratably in proportion to the respective annual dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class C Shares of all series then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividend and (ii) the dividends payable for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date (but, with respect to Noncumulative Shares, only with respect to the then current dividend period), ratably in proportion to the respective dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividends.

(b) So long as any Class C Shares shall be outstanding no dividend, except a dividend payable in Common Shares or other shares ranking junior to the Class C Shares, shall be paid or declared or any distribution be made, except as aforesaid, in respect of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class C Shares, nor shall any Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class C Shares be purchased, retired or otherwise acquired by the Corporation, except out of the proceeds of the sale of Common Shares or other shares of the Corporation ranking junior to the Class C Shares received by the Corporation subsequent to the date of first issuance of Class C Shares of any series, unless:

(1) All accrued and unpaid dividends on Cumulative Shares, including the full dividends for all current dividend periods, shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment thereof set apart;

(2) All unpaid dividends on Noncumulative Shares for the then current dividend period shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment therefor set apart; and

(3) There shall be no arrearages with respect to the redemption of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares of any series from any sinking fund provided for shares of such series in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item III.

(c) The foregoing restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions on, or on the purchase, redemption retirement or other acquisition of, Common Shares or any other shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class C Shares shall be inapplicable to (i) any payments in lieu of issuance of fractional shares thereof, whether upon any merger, conversion, stock dividend

22

or otherwise, (ii) the conversion of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares into Common Shares, or (iii) the exercise by the Corporation of its rights pursuant to Item XIV(d) of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized.

(d) If, for any taxable year, the Corporation elects to designate as “capital gain dividends” (as defined in Section 857 of the Code) any portion (the “Capital Gains Amount”) of the dividends paid or made available for the year to holders of all classes of stock (the “Total Dividends”), then, to the extent permissible under the Code and to the extent it does not cause any dividends to fail to qualify for the dividends paid deduction under Section 561 of the Code, the portion of the Capital Gains Amount that shall be allocable to holders of the Class C Shares shall be the amount that the total dividends paid or made available to the holders of the Class C Shares for the year bears to the Total Dividends.

Section 3. Redemption.

(a) Subject to the express terms of each series, the Corporation:

(1) May, from time to time at the option of the Board of Directors, redeem all or any part of any redeemable series of Class C Shares at the time outstanding at the applicable redemption price for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item III; and

(2) Shall, from time to time, make such redemptions of each series of Class C Shares as may be required to fulfill the requirements of any sinking fund provided for shares of such series at the applicable sinking fund redemption price fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item III; and shall in each case pay all accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.

(b) (1) Notice of every such redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the holders of record of the Class C Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or such other time prior thereto as the Board of Directors shall fix for any series pursuant to Section 1 of this Item III prior to the issuance thereof. At any time after notice as provided above has been deposited in the mail, the Corporation may deposit the aggregate redemption price of Class C Shares to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the redemption date, with any bank or trust company in Cleveland, Ohio, or New York, New York, having capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000 named in such notice and direct that there be paid to the respective holders of the Class C Shares so to be redeemed amounts equal to the redemption price of the Class C Shares so to be redeemed, together with such accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, on surrender of the share certificate or certificates held by such holders; and upon

23

the deposit of such notice in the mail and the making of such deposit of money with such bank or trust company, such holders shall cease to be shareholders with respect to such shares; and from and after the time such notice shall have been so deposited and such deposit of money shall have been so made, such holders shall have no rights or claim against the Corporation with respect to such shares, except only the right to receive such money from such bank or trust company without interest or to exercise before the redemption date any unexpired privileges of conversion. In the event less than all of the outstanding Class C Shares are to be redeemed, the Corporation shall select by lot the shares so to be redeemed in such manner as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

(2) If the holders of Class C Shares which have been called for redemption shall not within six years after such deposit claim the amount deposited for the redemption thereof, any such bank or trust company shall, upon demand, pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed amounts and thereupon such bank or trust company and the Corporation shall be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof and to such holders.

(c) Any Class C Shares which are (1) redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (2) purchased and delivered in satisfaction of any sinking fund requirements provided for shares of such series, (3) converted in accordance with the express terms thereof, or (4) otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall resume the status of authorized but unissued Class C Shares without serial designation.

(d) Except in connection with the exercise of the Corporation’s rights pursuant to Section (d) of Item XIV of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized, the Corporation may not purchase or redeem (for sinking fund purposes or otherwise) less than all of the Class C Shares then outstanding except in accordance with a stock purchase offer made to all holders of record of Class C Shares, unless all dividends on all Class C Shares then outstanding for all previous and current dividend periods shall have been declared and paid or funds therefor set apart and all accrued sinking fund obligations applicable thereto shall have been complied with.

Section 4. Liquidation.

(a) (1) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, the holders of Class C Shares of any series shall be entitled to receive in full out of the assets of the Corporation, including its capital, before any amount shall be paid or distributed among the holders of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class C Shares, the amounts fixed with respect to shares of such series in accordance with Section 1 of this Item III, plus an amount equal to all dividends

24

accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment of the amount due pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation. In the event the net assets of the Corporation legally available therefor are insufficient to permit the payment upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares of the full preferential amount to which they are respectively entitled, then such net assets shall be distributed ratably upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such share is entitled.

(2) After payment to the holders of Class C Shares of the full preferential amounts as aforesaid, the holders of Class C Shares, as such, shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

(b) The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other Corporation, the merger of any other Corporation into it, or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation shall not be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up for the purposes of this Section.

Section 5. Voting.

(a) The holders of Class C Shares shall have no voting rights, except as provided in this Section or required by law.

(b) (1) If, and so often as, the Corporation shall be in default in the payment of dividends on any series of Class C Shares at the time outstanding, whether or not earned or declared, for a number of dividend payment periods, whether consecutive or not, which in the aggregate contain at least 540 days, all holders of such Class C Shares, voting separately as a class, together with all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable under the circumstances described in Subsection 5(c), shall be entitled to elect, as herein provided, a total of two members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation; provided, however, that the holders of such Class C Shares shall not exercise such special class voting rights except at meetings of such shareholders for the election of directors at which the holders of not less than 50% of such Class C Shares are present in person or by proxy; and provided further that the special class voting rights provided for in this paragraph when the same shall have become vested shall remain so vested until all accrued and unpaid dividends on such Class C Shares then outstanding shall have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment, whereupon the holders of such Class C Shares shall be divested of their special class voting rights in respect of subsequent elections of directors, subject to the revesting of such special class voting rights in the event above specified in this paragraph. All dividend payments made on the Class C Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such Class C Shares for any dividend period, shall be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

25

(2) In the event of default entitling holders of Class C Shares to elect two directors as specified in paragraph (1) of this Subsection, a special meeting of such holders for the purpose of electing such directors shall be called by the Secretary of the Corporation upon written request of, or may be called by, the holders of record of at least 10% of the Class C Shares upon which such default in the payment of dividends exists and notice thereof shall be given in the same manner as that required for the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to call such special meeting if the annual meeting of shareholders shall be called to be held within 90 days after the date of receipt of the foregoing written request from the holders of Class C Shares. At any meeting at which such holders of Class C Shares shall be entitled to elect directors, holders of 50% of such Class C Shares, present in person or by proxy, shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the vote of the holders of a majority of such shares so present at any such meeting at which there shall be such a quorum shall be sufficient to elect the members of the Board of Directors which such holders of Class C Shares are entitled to elect as herein provided. Notwithstanding any provision of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Code of Regulations of the Corporation or any action taken by the holders of any class of shares fixing the number of directors of the Corporation, the two directors who may be elected by such holders of Class C Shares pursuant to this Subsection shall serve in addition to any other directors then in office or proposed to be elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Nothing in this Subsection shall prevent any change otherwise permitted in the total number of or classifications of directors of the Corporation or require the resignation of any director elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Notwithstanding any classification of the other directors of the Corporation, the two directors elected by such holders of Class C Shares shall be elected annually for terms expiring at the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders.

(3) Upon any divesting of the special class voting rights of the holders of the Class C Shares in respect of elections of directors as provided in this Subsection, the terms of office of all directors then in office elected by such holders shall terminate immediately thereupon. If the office of any director elected by such holders voting as a class becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, removal from office or otherwise, the remaining director elected by such holders voting as a class may elect a successor who shall hold office for the unexpired term in respect of which such vacancy occurred.

(c) If at any time when the holders of Class C Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section the holders of any Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares or Noncumulative Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant hereto by reason

26

of any default in the payment of dividends thereon, then the voting rights of the Cumulative Shares and the Noncumulative Shares then entitled to vote shall be combined (with each class of shares having a number of votes proportional to the aggregate liquidation preference of its outstanding shares). In such case, the holders of Class C Shares and of all such other shares then entitled so to vote, voting as a class, shall elect such directors. If the holders of any such other shares have elected such directors prior to the happening of the default or event permitting the holders of Class C Shares to elect directors, or prior to a written request for the holding of a special meeting being received by the Secretary of the Corporation as required above, then a new election shall be held with all such other shares and the Class C Shares voting together as a single class for such directors, resulting in the termination of the term of such previously elected directors upon the election of such new directors.

(d) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class C Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect either of the following:

(1) Any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class C Shares which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class C Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class C Shares nor the amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class C Shares; or

(2) The authorization, creation or increase in the authorized number of any shares, or any security convertible into shares, in either case ranking prior to such series of Class C Shares.

(e) In the event, and only to the extent, that (1) Class C Shares are issued in more than one series and (2) Ohio law permits the holders of a series of a class of capital stock to vote separately as a class, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of each series of Class C Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such matters, shall be required for any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights

27

of the holders of such series which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class C Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class C Shares nor the Amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series.

Section 6. 8 3/8% Class C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares. Of the 750,000 authorized Class C Shares, 460,000 shares are designated as a series entitled “8 3/8% Class C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares” (hereinafter called “8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares”). The 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares shall have the express terms set forth in this Division as being applicable to all Class C Shares as a class and, in addition, the following express terms applicable to all 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares as a series of Class C Shares:

The dividends payable for each full quarterly dividend period on each 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Share shall be $5.234375.

Dividends for the initial dividend period on the 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares, or for any period shorter or longer than a full dividend period on the 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The aggregate dividend payable quarterly to each holder of 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares shall be rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one cent with $.00005 being rounded upward. Each dividend shall be payable to the holders of record on such record date, no less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the payment date thereof, as shall be fixed from time to time by the Corporation’s Board of Directors.

(c) Dividends on 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares shall be cumulative as follows:

(1) With respect to shares included in the initial issue of 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares and shares issued any time thereafter up to and including the record date for the payment of the first dividend on the initial issue of 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares, dividends shall be cumulative from the date of the initial issue of 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares; and

28

(2) With respect to shares issued any time after the aforesaid record date, dividends shall be cumulative from the dividend payment date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, except that if such shares are issued during the period commencing the day after the record date for the payment of a dividend on 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares and ending on the payment date of that dividend, dividends with respect to such shares shall be cumulative from that dividend payment date.

(d) Except as required to preserve the Corporation’s status as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares may not be redeemed prior to July 7, 2003. At any time or from time to time on and after July 7, 2003 the Corporation, at its option upon not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days’ written notice, may redeem all or any part of the 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $250.00 per share plus, in each case, an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the redemption date, without interest. The redemption price (other than the portion thereof consisting of accrued and unpaid dividends) is payable solely out of the sale proceeds of other capital shares of the Corporation, which may include any equity securities (including common shares and preferred shares), shares, interests, participation or other ownership interests (however designated) and any rights (other than debt securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities), or options to purchase any of the foregoing.

(e) The amount payable per 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Share in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation shall be $250.00, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment.

(f) All dividend payments made on the 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such 8 3/8% Class C Preferred Shares for any dividend period, shall, for the purposes of Section 5(b)(1) of this Division A-III, be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

All Class D Shares shall be of equal rank and shall be identical, except in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as hereinafter provided, and each share of a series shall be identical with all other shares of such series, except as to the dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative. All Class D Shares shall rank on a parity with the Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares and shall be identical to all Class A Shares,

Subject to the provisions of Sections 2 through 5, both inclusive, and Item XIII of this Division, which provisions shall apply to all Class D Shares, the Board of Directors hereby is authorized to cause such shares to be issued in one or more series and, with respect to each such series to determine and fix prior to the issuance thereof (and thereafter, to the extent provided in clause (b) of this Section), the following:

(a) The designation of the series, which may be by distinguishing number, letter or title;

(b) The authorized number of shares of the series, which number the Board of Directors may (except where otherwise provided in the creation of the series) increase or decrease from time to time before or after the issuance thereof (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding);

(c) The dividend rate or rates of the series, including the means by which such rates may be established;

(d) The date or dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative and the dates on which and the period or periods for which dividends, if declared, shall be payable, including the means by which such dates and periods may be established;

(e) The redemption rights and price or prices, if any, for shares of the series;

(i) Restrictions (in addition to those set forth in Subsection 5(d) or 5(e) of this Item IV) on the issuance of shares of the same series or of any other class or series.

The Board of Directors is authorized to adopt from time to time amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, fixing, with respect to each such series, the matters described in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section and is authorized to take such actions with respect thereto as may be required by law in order to effect such amendments.

30

Section 2. Dividends.

(a) The holders of Class D Shares of each series, in preference to the holders of Common Shares and of any other class of shares ranking junior to the Class D Shares, shall be entitled to receive out of any funds legally available therefor, and when and as declared by the Board of Directors, dividends in cash at the rate or rates for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 above and no more, payable on the dates fixed for such series. Such dividends shall accrue and be cumulative, in the case of shares of each particular series, from and after the date or dates fixed with respect to such series. No dividends shall be paid upon or declared or set apart for any series of the Class D Shares for any dividend period unless at the same time (i) a like proportionate dividend for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date, ratably in proportion to the respective annual dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class D Shares of all series then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividend and (ii) the dividends payable for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date (but, with respect to Noncumulative Shares, only with respect to the then current dividend period), ratably in proportion to the respective dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividends.

(b) So long as any Class D Shares shall be outstanding no dividend, except a dividend payable in Common Shares or other shares ranking junior to the Class D Shares, shall be paid or declared or any distribution be made, except as aforesaid, in respect of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class D Shares, nor shall any Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class D Shares be purchased, retired or otherwise acquired by the Corporation, except out of the proceeds of the sale of Common Shares or other shares of the Corporation ranking junior to the Class D Shares received by the Corporation subsequent to the date of first issuance of Class D Shares of any series, unless:

(1) All accrued and unpaid dividends on Cumulative Shares, including the full dividends for all current dividend periods, shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment thereof set apart;

(2) All unpaid dividends on Noncumulative Shares for the then current dividend period shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment therefor set apart; and

31

(3) There shall be no arrearages with respect to the redemption of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares of any series from any sinking fund provided for shares of such series in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item IV.

(c) The foregoing restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions on, or on the purchase, redemption retirement or other acquisition of, Common Shares or any other shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class D Shares shall be inapplicable to (i) any payments in lieu of issuance of fractional shares thereof, whether upon any merger, conversion, stock dividend or otherwise, (ii) the conversion of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares into Common Shares, or (iii) the exercise by the Corporation of its rights pursuant to Item XIV(d) of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized.

(d) If, for any taxable year, the Corporation elects to designate as “capital gain dividends” (as defined in Section 857 of the Code) any portion (the “Capital Gains Amount”) of the dividends paid or made available for the year to holders of all classes of stock (the “Total Dividends”), then, to the extent permissible under the Code and to the extent it does not cause any dividends to fail to qualify for the dividends paid deduction under Section 561 of the Code, the portion of the Capital Gains Amount that shall be allocable to holders of the Class D Shares shall be the amount that the total dividends paid or made available to the holders of the Class D Shares for the year bears to the Total Dividends.

Section 3. Redemption.

(a) Subject to the express terms of each series, the Corporation:

(1) May, from time to time at the option of the Board of Directors, redeem all or any part of any redeemable series of Class D Shares at the time outstanding at the applicable redemption price for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item IV; and

(2) Shall, from time to time, make such redemptions of each series of Class D Shares as may be required to fulfill the requirements of any sinking fund provided for shares of such series at the applicable sinking fund redemption price fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item IV; and shall in each case pay all accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.

(b) (1) Notice of every such redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the holders of record of the Class D Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or such other time prior thereto as the Board of Directors shall fix for any series

32

pursuant to Section 1 of this Item IV prior to the issuance thereof. At any time after notice as provided above has been deposited in the mail, the Corporation may deposit the aggregate redemption price of Class D Shares to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the redemption date, with any bank or trust company in Cleveland, Ohio, or New York, New York, having capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000 named in such notice and direct that there be paid to the respective holders of the Class D Shares so to be redeemed amounts equal to the redemption price of the Class D Shares so to be redeemed, together with such accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, on surrender of the share certificate or certificates held by such holders; and upon the deposit of such notice in the mail and the making of such deposit of money with such bank or trust company, such holders shall cease to be shareholders with respect to such shares; and from and after the time such notice shall have been so deposited and such deposit of money shall have been so made, such holders shall have no rights or claim against the Corporation with respect to such shares, except only the right to receive such money from such bank or trust company without interest or to exercise before the redemption date any unexpired privileges of conversion. In the event less than all of the outstanding Class D Shares are to be redeemed, the Corporation shall select by lot the shares so to be redeemed in such manner as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

(2) If the holders of Class D Shares which have been called for redemption shall not within six years after such deposit claim the amount deposited for the redemption thereof, any such bank or trust company shall, upon demand, pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed amounts and thereupon such bank or trust company and the Corporation shall be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof and to such holders.

(c) Any Class D Shares which are (1) redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (2) purchased and delivered in satisfaction of any sinking fund requirements provided for shares of such series, (3) converted in accordance with the express terms thereof, or (4) otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall resume the status of authorized but unissued Class D Shares without serial designation.

(d) Except in connection with the exercise of the Corporation’s rights pursuant to Section (d) of Item XIV of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized, the Corporation may not purchase or redeem (for sinking fund purposes or otherwise) less than all of the Class D Shares then outstanding except in accordance with a stock purchase offer made to all holders of record of Class D Shares, unless all dividends on all Class D Shares then outstanding for all previous and current dividend periods shall have been declared and paid or funds therefor set apart and all accrued sinking fund obligations applicable thereto shall have been complied with.

33

Section 4. Liquidation.

(a) (1) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, the holders of Class D Shares of any series shall be entitled to receive in full out of the assets of the Corporation, including its capital, before any amount shall be paid or distributed among the holders of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class D Shares, the amounts fixed with respect to shares of such series in accordance with Section 1 of this Item IV, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment of the amount due pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation. In the event the net assets of the Corporation legally available therefor are insufficient to permit the payment upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares of the full preferential amount to which they are respectively entitled, then such net assets shall be distributed ratably upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such share is entitled.

(2) After payment to the holders of Class D Shares of the full preferential amounts as aforesaid, the holders of Class D Shares, as such, shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

(b) The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other Corporation, the merger of any other Corporation into it, or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation shall not be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up for the purposes of this Section.

Section 5. Voting.

(a) The holders of Class D Shares shall have no voting rights, except as provided in this Section or required by law.

(b) (1) If, and so often as, the Corporation shall be in default in the payment of dividends on any series of Class D Shares at the time outstanding, whether or not earned or declared, for a number of dividend payment periods, whether consecutive or not, which in the aggregate contain at least 540 days, all holders of such Class D Shares, voting separately as a class, together with all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable under the circumstances described in Subsection 5(c), shall be entitled to elect, as herein provided, a total of two members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation; provided, however, that the holders of such Class D Shares shall not exercise such special class voting rights except at meetings of such shareholders for the election of directors at which the holders of not less than 50% of such Class D Shares are present in person or by proxy; and provided

34

further that the special class voting rights provided for in this paragraph when the same shall have become vested shall remain so vested until all accrued and unpaid dividends on such Class D Shares then outstanding shall have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment, whereupon the holders of such Class D Shares shall be divested of their special class voting rights in respect of subsequent elections of directors, subject to the revesting of such special class voting rights in the event above specified in this paragraph. All dividend payments made on the Class D Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such Class D Shares for any dividend period, shall be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

(2) In the event of default entitling holders of Class D Shares to elect two directors as specified in paragraph (1) of this Subsection, a special meeting of such holders for the purpose of electing such directors shall be called by the Secretary of the Corporation upon written request of, or may be called by, the holders of record of at least 10% of the Class D Shares upon which such default in the payment of dividends exists and notice thereof shall be given in the same manner as that required for the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to call such special meeting if the annual meeting of shareholders shall be called to be held within 90 days after the date of receipt of the foregoing written request from the holders of Class D Shares. At any meeting at which such holders of Class D Shares shall be entitled to elect directors, holders of 50% of such Class D Shares, present in person or by proxy, shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the vote of the holders of a majority of such shares so present at any such meeting at which there shall be such a quorum shall be sufficient to elect the members of the Board of Directors which such holders of Class D Shares are entitled to elect as herein provided. Notwithstanding any provision of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Code of Regulations of the Corporation or any action taken by the holders of any class of shares fixing the number of directors of the Corporation, the two directors who may be elected by such holders of Class D Shares pursuant to this Subsection shall serve in addition to any other directors then in office or proposed to be elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Nothing in this Subsection shall prevent any change otherwise permitted in the total number of or classifications of directors of the Corporation or require the resignation of any director elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Notwithstanding any classification of the other directors of the Corporation, the two directors elected by such holders of Class D Shares shall be elected annually for terms expiring at the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders.

(3) Upon any divesting of the special class voting rights of the holders of the Class D Shares in respect of elections of directors as provided in this Subsection, the terms of office of all directors then in office elected by such holders shall terminate immediately thereupon. If the office of any director elected by such holders voting as a class becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, removal from office or otherwise, the remaining director elected by such holders voting as a class may elect a successor who shall hold office for the unexpired term in respect of which such vacancy occurred.

35

(c) If at any time when the holders of Class D Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section the holders of any Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares or Noncumulative Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant hereto by reason of any default in the payment of dividends thereon, then the voting rights of the Cumulative Shares and the Noncumulative Shares then entitled to vote shall be combined (with each class of shares having a number of votes proportional to the aggregate liquidation preference of its outstanding shares). In such case, the holders of Class D Shares and of all such other shares then entitled so to vote, voting as a class, shall elect such directors. If the holders of any such other shares have elected such directors prior to the happening of the default or event permitting the holders of Class D Shares to elect directors, or prior to a written request for the holding of a special meeting being received by the Secretary of the Corporation as required above, then a new election shall be held with all such other shares and the Class D Shares voting together as a single class for such directors, resulting in the termination of the term of such previously elected directors upon the election of such new directors.

(d) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class D Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect either of the following:

(1) Any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class D Shares which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class D Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class D Shares nor the amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class D Shares; or

(2) The authorization, creation or increase in the authorized number of any shares, or any security convertible into shares, in either case ranking prior to such series of Class D Shares.

36

(e) In the event, and only to the extent, that (1) Class D Shares are issued in more than one series and (2) Ohio law permits the holders of a series of a class of capital stock to vote separately as a class, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of each series of Class D Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such matters, shall be required for any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class D Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class D Shares nor the Amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series.

Section 6. 8.68% Class D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares.

The aggregate dividend payable quarterly to each holder of 8.68% Class D Preferred Shares shall be rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one cent with $.00005 being rounded upward. Each dividend shall be payable to the holders of record on such record date, no less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the payment date thereof, as shall be fixed from time to time by the Corporation’s Board of Directors.

37

(c) Dividends on 8.68% Class D Preferred Shares shall be cumulative as follows:

(1) With respect to shares included in the initial issue of 8.68% Class D Preferred Shares and shares issued any time thereafter up to and including the record date for the payment of the first dividend on the initial issue of 8.68% Class D Preferred Shares, dividends shall be cumulative from the date of the initial issue of 8.68% Class D Preferred Shares; and

(2) With respect to shares issued any time after the aforesaid record date, dividends shall be cumulative from the dividend payment date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, except that if such shares are issued during the period commencing the day after the record date for the payment of a dividend on 8.68 % Class D Preferred Shares and ending on the payment date of that dividend, dividends with respect to such shares shall be cumulative from that dividend payment date.

(d) Except as required to preserve the Corporation’s status as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the 8.68% Class D Preferred Shares may not be redeemed prior to August 20, 2003. At any time or from time to time on and after August 20, 2003 the Corporation, at its option upon not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days’ written notice, may redeem all or any part of the 8.68% Class D Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $250.00 per share plus, in each case, an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the redemption date, without interest.

(c) The dividend rate or rates of the series, including the means by which such rates may be established;

(d) The date or dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative and the dates on which and the period or periods for which dividends, if declared, shall be payable, including the means by which such dates and periods may be established;

(e) The redemption rights and price or prices, if any, for shares of the series;

(f) The terms and amount of the sinking fund, if any, for the purchase or redemption of shares of the series;

(g) The amounts payable on shares of the series in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation;

39

(h) Whether the shares of the series shall be convertible into Common Shares or shares of any other class and, if so, the conversion rate or rates or price or prices, any adjustments thereof and all other terms and conditions upon which such conversion may be made; and

(i) Restrictions (in addition to those set forth in Subsection 5(d) or 5(e) of this Item V) on the issuance of shares of the same series or of any other class or series.

The Board of Directors is authorized to adopt from time to time amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, fixing, with respect to each such series, the matters described in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section and is authorized to take such actions with respect thereto as may be required by law in order to effect such amendments.

Section 2. Dividends.

(a) The holders of Class E Shares of each series, in preference to the holders of Common Shares and of any other class of shares ranking junior to the Class E Shares, shall be entitled to receive out of any funds legally available therefor, and when and as declared by the Board of Directors, dividends in cash at the rate or rates for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 above and no more, payable on the dates fixed for such series. Such dividends shall accrue and be cumulative, in the case of shares of each particular series, from and after the date or dates fixed with respect to such series. No dividends shall be paid upon or declared or set apart for any series of the Class E Shares for any dividend period unless at the same time (i) a like proportionate dividend for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date, ratably in proportion to the respective annual dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class E Shares of all series then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividend and (ii) the dividends payable for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date (but, with respect to Noncumulative Shares, only with respect to the then current dividend period), ratably in proportion to the respective dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividends.

(b) So long as any Class E Shares shall be outstanding no dividend, except a dividend payable in Common Shares or other shares ranking junior to the Class E Shares, shall be paid or declared or any distribution be made, except as aforesaid, in respect of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class E Shares, nor shall any Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class E Shares be purchased, retired or otherwise acquired by the Corporation, except out of the proceeds of the sale of Common Shares or other shares of the Corporation ranking junior to the Class E Shares received by the Corporation subsequent to the date of first issuance of Class E Shares of any series, unless:

40

(1) All accrued and unpaid dividends on Cumulative Shares, including the full dividends for all current dividend periods, shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment thereof set apart;

(2) All unpaid dividends on Noncumulative Shares for the then current dividend period shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment therefor set apart; and

(3) There shall be no arrearages with respect to the redemption of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares of any series from any sinking fund provided for shares of such series in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item V.

(c) The foregoing restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions on, or on the purchase, redemption retirement or other acquisition of, Common Shares or any other shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class E Shares shall be inapplicable to (i) any payments in lieu of issuance of fractional shares thereof, whether upon any merger, conversion, stock dividend or otherwise, (ii) the conversion of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares into Common Shares, or (iii) the exercise by the Corporation of its rights pursuant to Item XIV(d) of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized.

(d) If, for any taxable year, the Corporation elects to designate as “capital gain dividends” (as defined in Section 857 of the Code) any portion (the “Capital Gains Amount”) of the dividends paid or made available for the year to holders of all classes of stock (the “Total Dividends”), then, to the extent permissible under the Code and to the extent it does not cause any dividends to fail to qualify for the dividends paid deduction under Section 561 of the Code, the portion of the Capital Gains Amount that shall be allocable to holders of the Class E Shares shall be the amount that the total dividends paid or made available to the holders of the Class E Shares for the year bears to the Total Dividends.

Section 3. Redemption.

(a) Subject to the express terms of each series, the Corporation:

(1) May, from time to time at the option of the Board of Directors, redeem all or any part of any redeemable series of Class E Shares at the time outstanding at the applicable redemption price for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item V; and

41

(2) Shall, from time to time, make such redemptions of each series of Class E Shares as may be required to fulfill the requirements of any sinking fund provided for shares of such series at the applicable sinking fund redemption price fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item V; and shall in each case pay all accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.

(b) (1) Notice of every such redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the holders of record of the Class E Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or such other time prior thereto as the Board of Directors shall fix for any series pursuant to Section 1 of this Item V prior to the issuance thereof. At any time after notice as provided above has been deposited in the mail, the Corporation may deposit the aggregate redemption price of Class E Shares to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the redemption date, with any bank or trust company in Cleveland, Ohio, or New York, New York, having capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000 named in such notice and direct that there be paid to the respective holders of the Class E Shares so to be redeemed amounts equal to the redemption price of the Class E Shares so to be redeemed, together with such accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, on surrender of the share certificate or certificates held by such holders; and upon the deposit of such notice in the mail and the making of such deposit of money with such bank or trust company, such holders shall cease to be shareholders with respect to such shares; and from and after the time such notice shall have been so deposited and such deposit of money shall have been so made, such holders shall have no rights or claim against the Corporation with respect to such shares, except only the right to receive such money from such bank or trust company without interest or to exercise before the redemption date any unexpired privileges of conversion. In the event less than all of the outstanding Class E Shares are to be redeemed, the Corporation shall select by lot the shares so to be redeemed in such manner as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

(2) If the holders of Class E Shares which have been called for redemption shall not within six years after such deposit claim the amount deposited for the redemption thereof, any such bank or trust company shall, upon demand, pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed amounts and thereupon such bank or trust company and the Corporation shall be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof and to such holders.

(c) Any Class E Shares which are (1) redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (2) purchased and delivered in satisfaction of any sinking fund requirements provided for shares of such series, (3) converted in accordance with the express terms thereof, or (4) otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall resume the status of authorized but unissued Class E Shares without serial designation.

42

(d) Except in connection with the exercise of the Corporation’s rights pursuant to Section (d) of Item XIV of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized, the Corporation may not purchase or redeem (for sinking fund purposes or otherwise) less than all of the Class E Shares then outstanding except in accordance with a stock purchase offer made to all holders of record of Class E Shares, unless all dividends on all Class E Shares then outstanding for all previous and current dividend periods shall have been declared and paid or funds therefor set apart and all accrued sinking fund obligations applicable thereto shall have been complied with.

Section 4. Liquidation.

(a) (1) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, the holders of Class E Shares of any series shall be entitled to receive in full out of the assets of the Corporation, including its capital, before any amount shall be paid or distributed among the holders of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class E Shares, the amounts fixed with respect to shares of such series in accordance with Section 1 of this Item V, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment of the amount due pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation. In the event the net assets of the Corporation legally available therefor are insufficient to permit the payment upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares of the full preferential amount to which they are respectively entitled, then such net assets shall be distributed ratably upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such share is entitled.

(2) After payment to the holders of Class E Shares of the full preferential amounts as aforesaid, the holders of Class E Shares, as such, shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

(b) The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other Corporation, the merger of any other Corporation into it, or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation shall not be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up for the purposes of this Section.

Section 5. Voting.

(a) The holders of Class E Shares shall have no voting rights, except as provided in this Section or required by law.

(b) (1) If, and so often as, the Corporation shall be in default in the payment of dividends on any series of Class E Shares at the time outstanding,

43

whether or not earned or declared, for a number of dividend payment periods, whether consecutive or not, which in the aggregate contain at least 540 days, all holders of such Class E Shares, voting separately as a class, together with all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable under the circumstances described in Subsection 5(c), shall be entitled to elect, as herein provided, a total of two members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation; provided, however, that the holders of such Class E Shares shall not exercise such special class voting rights except at meetings of such shareholders for the election of directors at which the holders of not less than 50% of such Class E Shares are present in person or by proxy; and provided further that the special class voting rights provided for in this paragraph when the same shall have become vested shall remain so vested until all accrued and unpaid dividends on such Class E Shares then outstanding shall have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment, whereupon the holders of such Class E Shares shall be divested of their special class voting rights in respect of subsequent elections of directors, subject to the revesting of such special class voting rights in the event above specified in this paragraph. All dividend payments made on the Class E Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such Class E Shares for any dividend period, shall be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

(2) In the event of default entitling holders of Class E Shares to elect two directors as specified in paragraph (1) of this Subsection, a special meeting of such holders for the purpose of electing such directors shall be called by the Secretary of the Corporation upon written request of, or may be called by, the holders of record of at least 10% of the Class E Shares upon which such default in the payment of dividends exists and notice thereof shall be given in the same manner as that required for the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to call such special meeting if the annual meeting of shareholders shall be called to be held within 90 days after the date of receipt of the foregoing written request from the holders of Class E Shares. At any meeting at which such holders of Class E Shares shall be entitled to elect directors, holders of 50% of such Class E Shares, present in person or by proxy, shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the vote of the holders of a majority of such shares so present at any such meeting at which there shall be such a quorum shall be sufficient to elect the members of the Board of Directors which such holders of Class E Shares are entitled to elect as herein provided. Notwithstanding any provision of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Code of Regulations of the Corporation or any action taken by the holders of any class of shares fixing the number of directors of the Corporation, the two directors who may be elected by such holders of Class E Shares pursuant to this Subsection shall serve in addition to any other directors then in office or proposed to be elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Nothing in this Subsection shall prevent any change otherwise

44

permitted in the total number of or classifications of directors of the Corporation or require the resignation of any director elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Notwithstanding any classification of the other directors of the Corporation, the two directors elected by such holders of Class E Shares shall be elected annually for terms expiring at the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders.

(3) Upon any divesting of the special class voting rights of the holders of the Class E Shares in respect of elections of directors as provided in this Subsection, the terms of office of all directors then in office elected by such holders shall terminate immediately thereupon. If the office of any director elected by such holders voting as a class becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, removal from office or otherwise, the remaining director elected by such holders voting as a class may elect a successor who shall hold office for the unexpired term in respect of which such vacancy occurred.

(c) If at any time when the holders of Class E Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section the holders of any Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares or Noncumulative Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant hereto by reason of any default in the payment of dividends thereon, then the voting rights of the Cumulative Shares and the Noncumulative Shares then entitled to vote shall be combined (with each class of shares having a number of votes proportional to the aggregate liquidation preference of its outstanding shares). In such case, the holders of Class E Shares and of all such other shares then entitled so to vote, voting as a class, shall elect such directors. If the holders of any such other shares have elected such directors prior to the happening of the default or event permitting the holders of Class E Shares to elect directors, or prior to a written request for the holding of a special meeting being received by the Secretary of the Corporation as required above, then a new election shall be held with all such other shares and the Class E Shares voting together as a single class for such directors, resulting in the termination of the term of such previously elected directors upon the election of such new directors.

(d) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class E Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect either of the following:

(1) Any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class E Shares which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as

45

amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class E Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class E Shares nor the amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class E Shares; or

(2) The authorization, creation or increase in the authorized number of any shares, or any security convertible into shares, in either case ranking prior to such series of Class E Shares.

(e) In the event, and only to the extent, that (1) Class E Shares are issued in more than one series and (2) Ohio law permits the holders of a series of a class of capital stock to vote separately as a class, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of each series of Class E Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such matters, shall be required for any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class E Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class E Shares nor the Amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series.

Section 6. Class E Series I Cumulative Preferred Shares.

(a) DESIGNATION AND AMOUNT. Of the 750,000 authorized Class E Cumulative Preferred Shares, without par value, 750,000 are designated as a series designated as “Class E Series I Cumulative Preferred Shares” (the “Series I Preferred Shares”). The Series I Preferred Shares have the express terms set forth in this Division as being applicable to all Preferred Shares as a class and, in addition, the following express terms applicable to all Series I Preferred Shares as a series of Preferred Shares. The number of Series I Preferred Shares may be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board of Directors and by the filing of a certificate of amendment pursuant to the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Ohio stating that such increase or reduction has been so authorized; however, no decrease shall reduce the number of Series I Preferred Shares to a number less than that of the Series I Preferred Shares then outstanding plus the number of Series I Preferred Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding rights, options or warrants or upon conversion of outstanding securities issued by the Company.

46

(b) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS.

(1) (i) Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred shares (or any similar shares) ranking prior to the Series I Preferred Shares with respect to dividends, the holders of Series I Preferred Shares, in preference to the holders of Common Shares and of any other junior shares, will be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the purpose, quarterly dividends payable in cash on the fifteenth day of March, June, September and December in each year (each such date being referred to herein as a “Quarterly Dividend Payment Date”), commencing on the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a Series I Preferred Share or fraction thereof, in an amount per share (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to the greater of (a) $10.00 or (b) subject to the provisions for adjustment hereinafter set forth, 10,000 times the aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends, and 10,000 times the aggregate per share amount (payable in kind) of all noncash dividends or other distributions other than a dividend payable in Common Shares or a subdivision of the outstanding Common Shares (by reclassification or otherwise), declared on the Common Shares after the immediately preceding Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, or, with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, after the first issuance of any Series I Preferred Share or fraction thereof. The multiple of cash and noncash dividends declared on the Common Shares to which holders of the Series I Preferred Shares are entitled, which is 10,000 initially but which will be adjusted from time to time as hereinafter provided, is hereinafter referred to as the “Dividend Multiple.” If the Company at any time after May 26, 1999 (the “Rights Declaration Date”): (i) declares or pays any dividend on the Common Shares payable in Common Shares, or (ii) effects a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding Common Shares (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in Common Shares) into a greater or lesser number of Common Shares, then in each such case the Dividend Multiple thereafter applicable to the determination of the amount of dividends that holders of Series I Preferred Shares are entitled to receive will be the Dividend Multiple applicable immediately prior to that event multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after that event and the denominator of which is the number of Common Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to that event.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything else contained in this paragraph (1), the Company shall, out of funds legally available for that purpose, declare a dividend or distribution on the Series I Preferred Shares as provided in this paragraph (1) immediately after it declares a dividend or distribution on the Common Shares (other than a dividend payable in Common Shares); but if no dividend or distribution has been declared on the Common Shares

47

during the period between any Quarterly Dividend Payment Date and the next subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, a dividend of $10.00 per share on the Series I Preferred Shares shall nevertheless accrue on such subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment Date.

(2) Dividends will begin to accrue and be cumulative on outstanding Series I Preferred Shares from the Quarterly Dividend Payment Date next preceding the date of issue of such Series I Preferred Shares, unless the date of issue of such shares is prior to the record date for the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in which case dividends on such shares will begin to accrue from the date of issue of such shares, or unless the date of issue is a Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or is a date after the record date for the determination of holders of Series I Preferred Shares entitled to receive a quarterly dividend and before such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in either of which events such dividends will begin to accrue and be cumulative from such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date. Accrued but unpaid dividends will not bear interest. Dividends paid on the Series I Preferred Shares in an amount less than the total amount of such dividends at the time accrued and payable on such shares will be allocated pro rata on a share-by-share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding. The Board of Directors may fix in accordance with applicable law a record date for the determination of holders of Series I Preferred Shares entitled to receive payment of a dividend or distribution declared thereon, which record date will be not more than such number of days prior to the date fixed for the payment thereof as may be allowed by applicable law.

(c) REACQUIRED SHARES. Any Series I Preferred Shares purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company in any manner whatsoever will be retired and canceled promptly after the acquisition thereof. All such shares will upon their cancellation become authorized but unissued preferred shares and may be reissued as part of a new series of Preferred Shares to be created by resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors, subject to the conditions and restrictions on issuance set forth herein.

(d) LIQUIDATION, DISSOLUTION OR WINDING UP. Upon any liquidation (voluntary or otherwise), dissolution or winding up of the Company, no distribution may be made (x) to the holders of shares ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series I Preferred Shares unless, prior thereto, the holders of Series I Preferred Shares shall have received an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions thereon, whether or not declared, to the date of such payment, plus an amount equal to the greater of (1) $10,000.00 per share or (2) an aggregate amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to 10,000 times the aggregate amount to be distributed per share to holders of Common Shares, or (y) to the holders of shares ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the Series I Preferred Shares, except distributions made ratably on the Series I Preferred

48

Shares and all other such parity stock in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are entitled upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding up. If the Company at any time after the Rights Declaration Date (i) declares or pays any dividend on Common Shares payable in Common Shares, or (ii) effects a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding Common Shares (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in Common Shares) into a greater or lesser number of Common Shares, then in each such case the aggregate amount per share to which holders of Series I Preferred Shares were entitled immediately prior to such event under clause (x) of the preceding sentence will be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of Common Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.

Neither the consolidation of nor merging of the Company with or into any other corporation or corporations, nor the sale or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, will be considered to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company within the meaning of this paragraph (d).

(e) CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, ETC. If the Company shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction in which the Common Shares are exchanged for or changed into other shares, stock or securities, cash or any other property, then in any such case the Series I Preferred Shares will at the same time be similarly exchanged or changed in an amount per share (subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth) equal to 10,000 times the aggregate amount of shares, stock, securities, or other property, as the case may be, into which or for which each Common Share is changed or exchanged, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, payable with respect to the Series I Preferred Shares. If the Company at any time after the Rights Declaration Date (i) declares or pays any dividend on Common Shares payable in Common Shares, or (ii) effects a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding Common Shares (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in Common Shares) into a greater or lesser number of Common Shares, then in each such case the amount set forth in the preceding sentence with respect to the exchange or change of Series I Preferred Shares will be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of Common Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.

(f) REDEMPTION. The Series I Preferred Shares are not redeemable, but the foregoing does not limit the ability of the Company to purchase or otherwise deal in the Series I Preferred Shares to the extent otherwise permitted hereby and by law.

49

(g) AMENDMENT. The Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended, may not be amended in any manner that would materially alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series I Preferred Shares so as to affect them adversely without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding Series I Preferred Shares, voting separately as a class.

(h) FRACTIONAL SHARES. Series I Preferred Shares may be issued in whole shares or in any fraction of a share that is one ten-thousandth (1/10,000th) of a share or any integral multiple of such fraction, which will entitle the holder, in proportion to such holder’s fractional shares, to exercise voting rights, receive dividends, participate in distributions and have the benefit of all other rights of holders of Series I Preferred Shares. In lieu of fractional shares, the Company may elect to make a cash payment as provided in that certain Rights Agreement dated as of May 26, 1999, between the Company and National City Bank, a national banking association, as rights agent, for fractions of a share smaller than one ten-thousandth (1/10,000th) of a share or any integral multiple thereof.

VI. The Class F Cumulative Preferred Shares. The Class F Shares shall have the following express terms:

Section 1. Series. The Class F Shares may be issued from time to time in one or more series. All Class F Shares shall be of equal rank and shall be identical, except in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as hereinafter provided, and each share of a series shall be identical with all other shares of such series, except as to the dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative. All Class F Shares shall rank on a parity with the Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares and shall be identical to all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares except (1) in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as provided in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section 1 and (2) only dividends on Cumulative Shares shall be cumulative as set forth herein. Subject to the provisions of Sections 2 through 5, both inclusive, and Item XIII of this Division, which provisions shall apply to all Class F Shares, the Board of Directors hereby is authorized to cause such shares to be issued in one or more series and, with respect to each such series to determine and fix prior to the issuance thereof (and thereafter, to the extent provided in clause (b) of this Section), the following:

(a) The designation of the series, which may be by distinguishing number, letter or title;

(b) The authorized number of shares of the series, which number the Board of Directors may (except where otherwise provided in the creation of the series) increase or decrease from time to time before or after the issuance thereof (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding);

50

(c) The dividend rate or rates of the series, including the means by which such rates may be established;

(d) The date or dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative and the dates on which and the period or periods for which dividends, if declared, shall be payable, including the means by which such dates and periods may be established;

(e) The redemption rights and price or prices, if any, for shares of the series;

(f) The terms and amount of the sinking fund, if any, for the purchase or redemption of shares of the series;

(g) The amounts payable on shares of the series in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation;

(h) Whether the shares of the series shall be convertible into Common Shares or shares of any other class and, if so, the conversion rate or rates or price or prices, any adjustments thereof and all other terms and conditions upon which such conversion may be made; and

(i) Restrictions (in addition to those set forth in Subsection 5(d) or 5(e) of this Item VI) on the issuance of shares of the same series or of any other class or series.

The Board of Directors is authorized to adopt from time to time amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, fixing, with respect to each such series, the matters described in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section and is authorized to take such actions with respect thereto as may be required by law in order to effect such amendments.

Section 2. Dividends.

(a) The holders of Class F Shares of each series, in preference to the holders of Common Shares and of any other class of shares ranking junior to the Class F Shares, shall be entitled to receive out of any funds legally available therefor, and when and as declared by the Board of Directors, dividends in cash at the rate or rates for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 above and no more, payable on the dates fixed for such series. Such dividends shall accrue and be cumulative, in the case of shares of each particular series, from and after the date or dates fixed with respect to such series. No dividends shall be paid upon or declared or set apart for any series of the Class F Shares for any dividend period unless at the same time (i) a like proportionate dividend for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date, ratably in proportion to the respective annual dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class F Shares of all series

51

then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividend and (ii) the dividends payable for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date (but, with respect to Noncumulative Shares, only with respect to the then current dividend period), ratably in proportion to the respective dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividends.

(b) So long as any Class F Shares shall be outstanding no dividend, except a dividend payable in Common Shares or other shares ranking junior to the Class F Shares, shall be paid or declared or any distribution be made, except as aforesaid, in respect of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class F Shares, nor shall any Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class F Shares be purchased, retired or otherwise acquired by the Corporation, except out of the proceeds of the sale of Common Shares or other shares of the Corporation ranking junior to the Class F Shares received by the Corporation subsequent to the date of first issuance of Class F Shares of any series, unless:

(1) All accrued and unpaid dividends on Cumulative Shares, including the full dividends for all current dividend periods, shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment thereof set apart;

(2) All unpaid dividends on Noncumulative Shares for the then current dividend period shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment therefor set apart; and

(3) There shall be no arrearages with respect to the redemption of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares of any series from any sinking fund provided for shares of such series in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item VI.

(c) The foregoing restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions on, or on the purchase, redemption retirement or other acquisition of, Common Shares or any other shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class F Shares shall be inapplicable to (i) any payments in lieu of issuance of fractional shares thereof, whether upon any merger, conversion, stock dividend or otherwise, (ii) the conversion of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares into Common Shares, or (iii) the exercise by the Corporation of its rights pursuant to Item XIV(d) of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized.

52

(d) If, for any taxable year, the Corporation elects to designate as “capital gain dividends” (as defined in Section 857 of the Code) any portion (the “Capital Gains Amount”) of the dividends paid or made available for the year to holders of all classes of stock (the “Total Dividends”), then, to the extent permissible under the Code and to the extent it does not cause any dividends to fail to qualify for the dividends paid deduction under Section 561 of the Code, the portion of the Capital Gains Amount that shall be allocable to holders of the Class F Shares shall be the amount that the total dividends paid or made available to the holders of the Class F Shares for the year bears to the Total Dividends.

Section 3. Redemption.

(a) Subject to the express terms of each series, the Corporation:

(1) May, from time to time at the option of the Board of Directors, redeem all or any part of any redeemable series of Class F Shares at the time outstanding at the applicable redemption price for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item VI; and

(2) Shall, from time to time, make such redemptions of each series of Class F Shares as may be required to fulfill the requirements of any sinking fund provided for shares of such series at the applicable sinking fund redemption price fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item VI; and shall in each case pay all accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.

(b) (1) Notice of every such redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the holders of record of the Class F Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or such other time prior thereto as the Board of Directors shall fix for any series pursuant to Section 1 of this Item VI prior to the issuance thereof. At any time after notice as provided above has been deposited in the mail, the Corporation may deposit the aggregate redemption price of Class F Shares to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the redemption date, with any bank or trust company in Cleveland, Ohio, or New York, New York, having capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000 named in such notice and direct that there be paid to the respective holders of the Class F Shares so to be redeemed amounts equal to the redemption price of the Class F Shares so to be redeemed, together with such accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, on surrender of the share certificate or certificates held by such holders; and upon the deposit of such notice in the mail and the making of such deposit of money with such bank or trust company, such holders shall cease to be shareholders with respect to such shares; and from and after the time such notice shall have been so deposited and such deposit of money shall have been so made, such holders shall have no rights or claim against the Corporation with respect to such shares, except only the right to receive such money from such bank or trust company without interest or to exercise before the redemption date any unexpired privileges of conversion. In the event less than all of the outstanding Class F Shares are to be redeemed, the Corporation shall select by lot the shares so to be redeemed in such manner as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

53

(2) If the holders of Class F Shares which have been called for redemption shall not within six years after such deposit claim the amount deposited for the redemption thereof, any such bank or trust company shall, upon demand, pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed amounts and thereupon such bank or trust company and the Corporation shall be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof and to such holders.

(c) Any Class F Shares which are (1) redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (2) purchased and delivered in satisfaction of any sinking fund requirements provided for shares of such series, (3) converted in accordance with the express terms thereof, or (4) otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall resume the status of authorized but unissued Class F Shares without serial designation.

(d) Except in connection with the exercise of the Corporation’s rights pursuant to Section (d) of Item XIV of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized, the Corporation may not purchase or redeem (for sinking fund purposes or otherwise) less than all of the Class F Shares then outstanding except in accordance with a stock purchase offer made to all holders of record of Class F Shares, unless all dividends on all Class F Shares then outstanding for all previous and current dividend periods shall have been declared and paid or funds therefor set apart and all accrued sinking fund obligations applicable thereto shall have been complied with.

Section 4. Liquidation.

(a) (1) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, the holders of Class F Shares of any series shall be entitled to receive in full out of the assets of the Corporation, including its capital, before any amount shall be paid or distributed among the holders of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class F Shares, the amounts fixed with respect to shares of such series in accordance with Section 1 of this Item VI, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment of the amount due pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation. In the event the net assets of the Corporation legally available therefor are insufficient to permit the payment upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares of the full preferential amount to which they are respectively entitled, then such net assets shall be distributed ratably upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such share is entitled.

54

(2) After payment to the holders of Class F Shares of the full preferential amounts as aforesaid, the holders of Class F Shares, as such, shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

(b) The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other Corporation, the merger of any other Corporation into it, or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation shall not be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up for the purposes of this Section.

Section 5. Voting.

(a) The holders of Class F Shares shall have no voting rights, except as provided in this Section or required by law.

(b) (1) If, and so often as, the Corporation shall be in default in the payment of dividends on any series of Class F Shares at the time outstanding, whether or not earned or declared, for a number of dividend payment periods, whether consecutive or not, which in the aggregate contain at least 540 days, all holders of such Class F Shares, voting separately as a class, together with all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable under the circumstances described in Subsection 5(c), shall be entitled to elect, as herein provided, a total of two members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation; provided, however, that the holders of such Class F Shares shall not exercise such special class voting rights except at meetings of such shareholders for the election of directors at which the holders of not less than 50% of such Class F Shares are present in person or by proxy; and provided further that the special class voting rights provided for in this paragraph when the same shall have become vested shall remain so vested until all accrued and unpaid dividends on such Class F Shares then outstanding shall have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment, whereupon the holders of such Class F Shares shall be divested of their special class voting rights in respect of subsequent elections of directors, subject to the revesting of such special class voting rights in the event above specified in this paragraph. All dividend payments made on the Class F Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such Class F Shares for any dividend period, shall be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

(2) In the event of default entitling holders of Class F Shares to elect two directors as specified in paragraph (1) of this Subsection, a special meeting of such holders for the purpose of electing such directors shall be called by the

55

Secretary of the Corporation upon written request of, or may be called by, the holders of record of at least 10% of the Class F Shares upon which such default in the payment of dividends exists and notice thereof shall be given in the same manner as that required for the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to call such special meeting if the annual meeting of shareholders shall be called to be held within 90 days after the date of receipt of the foregoing written request from the holders of Class F Shares. At any meeting at which such holders of Class F Shares shall be entitled to elect directors, holders of 50% of such Class F Shares, present in person or by proxy, shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the vote of the holders of a majority of such shares so present at any such meeting at which there shall be such a quorum shall be sufficient to elect the members of the Board of Directors which such holders of Class F Shares are entitled to elect as herein provided. Notwithstanding any provision of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Code of Regulations of the Corporation or any action taken by the holders of any class of shares fixing the number of directors of the Corporation, the two directors who may be elected by such holders of Class F Shares pursuant to this Subsection shall serve in addition to any other directors then in office or proposed to be elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Nothing in this Subsection shall prevent any change otherwise permitted in the total number of or classifications of directors of the Corporation or require the resignation of any director elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Notwithstanding any classification of the other directors of the Corporation, the two directors elected by such holders of Class F Shares shall be elected annually for terms expiring at the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders.

(3) Upon any divesting of the special class voting rights of the holders of the Class F Shares in respect of elections of directors as provided in this Subsection, the terms of office of all directors then in office elected by such holders shall terminate immediately thereupon. If the office of any director elected by such holders voting as a class becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, removal from office or otherwise, the remaining director elected by such holders voting as a class may elect a successor who shall hold office for the unexpired term in respect of which such vacancy occurred.

(c) If at any time when the holders of Class F Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section the holders of any Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares or Noncumulative Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant hereto by reason of any default in the payment of dividends thereon, then the voting rights of the Cumulative Shares and the Noncumulative Shares then entitled to vote shall be combined (with each class of shares having a number of votes proportional to the aggregate liquidation preference of its outstanding shares). In such case, the holders of Class F Shares and of all such other shares then entitled so to vote, voting as a class, shall elect such directors. If the holders of any such other

56

shares have elected such directors prior to the happening of the default or event permitting the holders of Class F Shares to elect directors, or prior to a written request for the holding of a special meeting being received by the Secretary of the Corporation as required above, then a new election shall be held with all such other shares and the Class F Shares voting together as a single class for such directors, resulting in the termination of the term of such previously elected directors upon the election of such new directors.

(d) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class F Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect either of the following:

(1) Any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class F Shares which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class F Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class F Shares nor the amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class F Shares; or

(2) The authorization, creation or increase in the authorized number of any shares, or any security convertible into shares, in either case ranking prior to such series of Class F Shares.

(e) In the event, and only to the extent, that (1) Class F Shares are issued in more than one series and (2) Ohio law permits the holders of a series of a class of capital stock to vote separately as a class, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of each series of Class F Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such matters, shall be required for any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class F Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class F Shares nor the Amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series.

Section 6. 8.60% Class F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares. Of the 750,000 authorized Class F Shares, 690,000 shares are designated as a series entitled “8.60% Class F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares” (hereinafter called “8.60% Class F Preferred Shares”). The 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares shall have the express terms set forth in this Division as being applicable to all Class F Shares as a class and, in addition, the following express terms applicable to all 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares as a series of Class F Shares:

(a) The annual dividend rate of the 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares shall be 8.60% of the liquidation preference of $250.00 per share.

The dividends payable for each full quarterly dividend period on each 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares shall be $0.5375. Dividends for the initial dividend period on the 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares, or for any period shorter or longer than a full dividend period on the 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The aggregate dividend payable quarterly to each holder of 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares shall be rounded to the nearest one one-hundredth of one cent with $.00005 being rounded upward. Each dividend shall be payable to the holders of record on such record date, no less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the payment date thereof, as shall be fixed from time to time by the Corporation’s Board of Directors.

(c) Dividends on 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares shall be cumulative as follows:

(1) With respect to shares included in the initial issue of 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares and shares issued any time thereafter up to and including the record date for the payment of the first dividend on the initial issue of 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares, dividends shall be cumulative from the date of the initial issue of 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares; and

(2) With respect to shares issued any time after the aforesaid record date, dividends shall be cumulative from the dividend payment date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, except that if such shares are issued during the period commencing the day after the record date for the payment of a dividend on 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares and ending on the payment date of that dividend, dividends with respect to such shares shall be cumulative from that dividend payment date.

58

(d) Except as required to preserve the Corporation’s status as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares may not be redeemed prior to March 27, 2007. At any time or from time to time on and after March 27, 2007 the Corporation, at its option upon not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days’ written notice, may redeem all or any part of the 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $250.00 per share plus, in each case, an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the redemption date, without interest. The redemption price (other than the portion thereof consisting of accrued and unpaid dividends) is payable solely out of the sale proceeds of other capital shares of the Corporation, which may include any equity securities (including common shares and preferred shares), shares, interests, participation or other ownership interests (however designated) and any rights (other than debt securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities), or options to purchase any of the foregoing.

(e) The amount payable per 8.60% Class F Preferred Share in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation shall be $250.00, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment.

(f) All dividend payments made on the 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such 8.60% Class F Preferred Shares for any dividend period, shall, for the purposes of Section 5(b)(1) of this Division A-VI, be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

All Class G Shares shall be of equal rank and shall be identical, except in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as hereinafter provided, and each share of a series shall be identical with all other shares of such series, except as to the dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative. All Class G Shares shall rank on a parity with the Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares and shall be identical to all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares except (1) in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as provided in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section 1 and (2) only dividends on Cumulative Shares shall be cumulative as set forth herein.

The Board of Directors is authorized to adopt from time to time amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, fixing, with respect to each such series, the matters described in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section and is authorized to take such actions with respect thereto as may be required by law in order to effect such amendments.

60

Such dividends shall accrue and be cumulative, in the case of shares of each particular series, from and after the date or dates fixed with respect to such series. No dividends shall be paid upon or declared or set apart for any series of the Class G Shares for any dividend period unless at the same time (i) a like proportionate dividend for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date, ratably in proportion to the respective annual dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class G Shares of all series then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividend and (ii) the dividends payable for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date (but, with respect to Noncumulative Shares, only with respect to the then current dividend period), ratably in proportion to the respective dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividends.

(1) All accrued and unpaid dividends on Cumulative Shares, including the full dividends for all current dividend periods, shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment thereof set apart;

(2) All unpaid dividends on Noncumulative Shares for the then current dividend period shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment therefor set apart; and

Section 3. Redemption.

(a) Subject to the express terms of each series, the Corporation:

(1) May, from time to time at the option of the Board of Directors, redeem all or any part of any redeemable series of Class G Shares at the time outstanding at the applicable redemption price for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item VII; and

(2) Shall, from time to time, make such redemptions of each series of Class G Shares as may be required to fulfill the requirements of any sinking fund provided for shares of such series at the applicable sinking fund redemption price fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item VII; and shall in each case pay all accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.

(b) (1) Notice of every such redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the holders of record of the Class G Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or such other time prior thereto as the Board of Directors shall fix for any series pursuant to Section 1 of this Item VII prior to the issuance thereof.

62

redeemed amounts equal to the redemption price of the Class G Shares so to be redeemed, together with such accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, on surrender of the share certificate or certificates held by such holders; and upon the deposit of such notice in the mail and the making of such deposit of money with such bank or trust company, such holders shall cease to be shareholders with respect to such shares; and from and after the time such notice shall have been so deposited and such deposit of money shall have been so made, such holders shall have no rights or claim against the Corporation with respect to such shares, except only the right to receive such money from such bank or trust company without interest or to exercise before the redemption date any unexpired privileges of conversion. In the event less than all of the outstanding Class G Shares are to be redeemed, the Corporation shall select by lot the shares so to be redeemed in such manner as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

(2) If the holders of Class G Shares which have been called for redemption shall not within six years after such deposit claim the amount deposited for the redemption thereof, any such bank or trust company shall, upon demand, pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed amounts and thereupon such bank or trust company and the Corporation shall be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof and to such holders.

(c) Any Class G Shares which are (1) redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (2) purchased and delivered in satisfaction of any sinking fund requirements provided for shares of such series, (3) converted in accordance with the express terms thereof, or (4) otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall resume the status of authorized but unissued Class G Shares without serial designation.

Section 4. Liquidation.

(a) (1) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, the holders of Class G Shares of any series shall be entitled to receive in full out of the assets of the Corporation, including its capital, before any amount shall be paid or distributed

In the event the net assets of the Corporation legally available therefor are insufficient to permit the payment upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares of the full preferential amount to which they are respectively entitled, then such net assets shall be distributed ratably upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such share is entitled.

(2) After payment to the holders of Class G Shares of the full preferential amounts as aforesaid, the holders of Class G Shares, as such, shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

(b) The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other Corporation, the merger of any other Corporation into it, or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation shall not be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up for the purposes of this Section.

64

revesting of such special class voting rights in the event above specified in this paragraph. All dividend payments made on the Class G Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such Class G Shares for any dividend period, shall be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

(2) In the event of default entitling holders of Class G Shares to elect two directors as specified in paragraph (1) of this Subsection, a special meeting of such holders for the purpose of electing such directors shall be called by the Secretary of the Corporation upon written request of, or may be called by, the holders of record of at least 10% of the Class G Shares upon which such default in the payment of dividends exists and notice thereof shall be given in the same manner as that required for the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to call such special meeting if the annual meeting of shareholders shall be called to be held within 90 days after the date of receipt of the foregoing written request from the holders of Class G Shares. At any meeting at which such holders of Class G Shares shall be entitled to elect directors, holders of 50% of such Class G Shares, present in person or by proxy, shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the vote of the holders of a majority of such shares so present at any such meeting at which there shall be such a quorum shall be sufficient to elect the members of the Board of Directors which such holders of Class G Shares are entitled to elect as herein provided. Notwithstanding any provision of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Code of Regulations of the Corporation or any action taken by the holders of any class of shares fixing the number of directors of the Corporation, the two directors who may be elected by such holders of Class G Shares pursuant to this Subsection shall serve in addition to any other directors then in office or proposed to be elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Nothing in this Subsection shall prevent any change otherwise permitted in the total number of or classifications of directors of the Corporation or require the resignation of any director elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Notwithstanding any classification of the other directors of the Corporation, the two directors elected by such holders of Class G Shares shall be elected annually for terms expiring at the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders.

(3) Upon any divesting of the special class voting rights of the holders of the Class G Shares in respect of elections of directors as provided in this Subsection, the terms of office of all directors then in office elected by such holders shall terminate immediately thereupon. If the office of any director elected by such holders voting as a class becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, removal from office or otherwise, the remaining director elected by such holders voting as a class may elect a successor who shall hold office for the unexpired term in respect of which such vacancy occurred.

(c) If at any time when the holders of Class G Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section the holders of any

65

Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares or Noncumulative Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant hereto by reason of any default in the payment of dividends thereon, then the voting rights of the Cumulative Shares and the Noncumulative Shares then entitled to vote shall be combined (with each class of shares having a number of votes proportional to the aggregate liquidation preference of its outstanding shares). In such case, the holders of Class G Shares and of all such other shares then entitled so to vote, voting as a class, shall elect such directors. If the holders of any such other shares have elected such directors prior to the happening of the default or event permitting the holders of Class G Shares to elect directors, or prior to a written request for the holding of a special meeting being received by the Secretary of the Corporation as required above, then a new election shall be held with all such other shares and the Class G Shares voting together as a single class for such directors, resulting in the termination of the term of such previously elected directors upon the election of such new directors.

(d) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class G Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect either of the following:

(1) Any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class G Shares which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class G Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class G Shares nor the amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class G Shares; or

(2) The authorization, creation or increase in the authorized number of any shares, or any security convertible into shares, in either case ranking prior to such series of Class G Shares.

(e) In the event, and only to the extent, that (1) Class G Shares are issued in more than one series and (2) Ohio law permits the holders of a series of a class of capital stock to vote separately as a class, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of each series of Class G Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such matters, shall be required for any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or

66

otherwise, of any of the provisions of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class G Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class G Shares nor the Amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series.

The dividends payable for each full quarterly dividend period on each 8% Class G Preferred Shares shall be $5.00.

Dividends for the initial dividend period on the 8% Class G Preferred Shares, or for any period shorter or longer than a full dividend period on the 8% Class G Preferred Shares, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The aggregate dividend payable quarterly to each holder of 8% Class G Preferred Shares shall be rounded to the nearest one one-hundredth of one cent with $.00005 being rounded upward. Each dividend shall be payable to the holders of record on such record date, no less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the payment date thereof, as shall be fixed from time to time by the Corporation’s Board of Directors.

(c) Dividends on 8% Class G Preferred Shares shall be cumulative as follows:

(1) With respect to shares included in the initial issue of 8% Class G Preferred Shares and shares issued any time thereafter up to and including the record date for the payment of the first dividend on the initial issue of 8% Class G Preferred Shares, dividends shall be cumulative from the date of the initial issue of 8% Class G Preferred Shares; and

67

(2) With respect to shares issued any time after the aforesaid record date, dividends shall be cumulative from the dividend payment date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, except that if such shares are issued during the period commencing the day after the record date for the payment of a dividend on 8% Class G Preferred Shares and ending on the payment date of that dividend, dividends with respect to such shares shall be cumulative from that dividend payment date.

(d) Except as required to preserve the Corporation’s status as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the 8% Class G Preferred Shares may not be redeemed prior to March 28, 2008. At any time or from time to time on and after March 28, 2008 the Corporation, at its option upon not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days’ written notice, may redeem all or any part of the 8% Class G Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $250.00 per share plus, in each case, an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the redemption date, without interest.

(e) The amount payable per 8% Class G Preferred Share in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation shall be $250.00, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment.

(f) All dividend payments made on the 8% Class G Preferred Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such 8% Class G Preferred Shares for any dividend period, shall, for the purposes of Section 5(b)(1) of this Division A-VII, be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

VIII. The Class H Cumulative Preferred Shares. The Class H Shares shall have the following express terms:

Section 1. Series. The Class H Shares may be issued from time to time in one or more series. All Class H Shares shall be of equal rank and shall be identical, except in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as hereinafter provided, and each share of a series shall be identical with all other shares of such series, except as to the dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative. All Class H Shares shall rank on a parity with the Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares and shall be identical to all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares except (1) in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as provided in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section 1 and (2) only dividends on Cumulative

68

Shares shall be cumulative as set forth herein. Subject to the provisions of Sections 2 through 5, both inclusive, and Item XIII of this Division, which provisions shall apply to all Class H Shares, the Board of Directors hereby is authorized to cause such shares to be issued in one or more series and, with respect to each such series to determine and fix prior to the issuance thereof (and thereafter, to the extent provided in clause (b) of this Section), the following:

(a) The designation of the series, which may be by distinguishing number, letter or title;

(b) The authorized number of shares of the series, which number the Board of Directors may (except where otherwise provided in the creation of the series) increase or decrease from time to time before or after the issuance thereof (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding);

(c) The dividend rate or rates of the series, including the means by which such rates may be established;

(d) The date or dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative and the dates on which and the period or periods for which dividends, if declared, shall be payable, including the means by which such dates and periods may be established;

(e) The redemption rights and price or prices, if any, for shares of the series;

(f) The terms and amount of the sinking fund, if any, for the purchase or redemption of shares of the series;

(h) Whether the shares of the series shall be convertible into Common Shares or shares of any other class and, if so, the conversion rate or rates or price or prices, any adjustments thereof and all other terms and conditions upon which such conversion may be made; and

(i) Restrictions (in addition to those set forth in Subsection 5(d) or 5(e) of this Item VIII) on the issuance of shares of the same series or of any other class or series.

The Board of Directors is authorized to adopt from time to time amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, fixing, with respect to each such series, the matters described in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section and is authorized to take such actions with respect thereto as may be required by law in order to effect such amendments.

69

Section 2. Dividends.

(a) The holders of Class H Shares of each series, in preference to the holders of Common Shares and of any other class of shares ranking junior to the Class H Shares, shall be entitled to receive out of any funds legally available therefor, and when and as declared by the Board of Directors, dividends in cash at the rate or rates for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 above and no more, payable on the dates fixed for such series. Such dividends shall accrue and be cumulative, in the case of shares of each particular series, from and after the date or dates fixed with respect to such series. No dividends shall be paid upon or declared or set apart for any series of the Class H Shares for any dividend period unless at the same time (i) a like proportionate dividend for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date, ratably in proportion to the respective annual dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class H Shares of all series then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividend and (ii) the dividends payable for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date (but, with respect to Noncumulative Shares, only with respect to the then current dividend period), ratably in proportion to the respective dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividends.

(b) So long as any Class H Shares shall be outstanding no dividend, except a dividend payable in Common Shares or other shares ranking junior to the Class H Shares, shall be paid or declared or any distribution be made, except as aforesaid, in respect of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class H Shares, nor shall any Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class H Shares be purchased, retired or otherwise acquired by the Corporation, except out of the proceeds of the sale of Common Shares or other shares of the Corporation ranking junior to the Class H Shares received by the Corporation subsequent to the date of first issuance of Class H Shares of any series, unless:

(1) All accrued and unpaid dividends on Cumulative Shares, including the full dividends for all current dividend periods, shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment thereof set apart;

(2) All unpaid dividends on Noncumulative Shares for the then current dividend period shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment therefor set apart; and

(3) There shall be no arrearages with respect to the redemption of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares of any series from any sinking fund provided for shares of such series in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item VIII.

70

(c) The foregoing restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions on, or on the purchase, redemption retirement or other acquisition of, Common Shares or any other shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class H Shares shall be inapplicable to (i) any payments in lieu of issuance of fractional shares thereof, whether upon any merger, conversion, stock dividend or otherwise, (ii) the conversion of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares into Common Shares, or (iii) the exercise by the Corporation of its rights pursuant to Item XIV(d) of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized.

(d) If, for any taxable year, the Corporation elects to designate as “capital gain dividends” (as defined in Section 857 of the Code) any portion (the “Capital Gains Amount”) of the dividends paid or made available for the year to holders of all classes of stock (the “Total Dividends”), then, to the extent permissible under the Code and to the extent it does not cause any dividends to fail to qualify for the dividends paid deduction under Section 561 of the Code, the portion of the Capital Gains Amount that shall be allocable to holders of the Class H Shares shall be the amount that the total dividends paid or made available to the holders of the Class H Shares for the year bears to the Total Dividends.

Section 3. Redemption.

(a) Subject to the express terms of each series, the Corporation:

(1) May, from time to time at the option of the Board of Directors, redeem all or any part of any redeemable series of Class H Shares at the time outstanding at the applicable redemption price for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item VIII; and

(2) Shall, from time to time, make such redemptions of each series of Class H Shares as may be required to fulfill the requirements of any sinking fund provided for shares of such series at the applicable sinking fund redemption price fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item VIII; and shall in each case pay all accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.

(b) (1) Notice of every such redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the holders of record of the Class H Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or such other time prior thereto as the Board of Directors shall fix for any series pursuant to Section 1 of this Item VIII prior to the issuance thereof. At any time after notice as provided above has been deposited in the mail, the Corporation

71

may deposit the aggregate redemption price of Class H Shares to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the redemption date, with any bank or trust company in Cleveland, Ohio, or New York, New York, having capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000 named in such notice and direct that there be paid to the respective holders of the Class H Shares so to be redeemed amounts equal to the redemption price of the Class H Shares so to be redeemed, together with such accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, on surrender of the share certificate or certificates held by such holders; and upon the deposit of such notice in the mail and the making of such deposit of money with such bank or trust company, such holders shall cease to be shareholders with respect to such shares; and from and after the time such notice shall have been so deposited and such deposit of money shall have been so made, such holders shall have no rights or claim against the Corporation with respect to such shares, except only the right to receive such money from such bank or trust company without interest or to exercise before the redemption date any unexpired privileges of conversion. In the event less than all of the outstanding Class H Shares are to be redeemed, the Corporation shall select by lot the shares so to be redeemed in such manner as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

(2) If the holders of Class H Shares which have been called for redemption shall not within six years after such deposit claim the amount deposited for the redemption thereof, any such bank or trust company shall, upon demand, pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed amounts and thereupon such bank or trust company and the Corporation shall be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof and to such holders.

(c) Any Class H Shares which are (1) redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (2) purchased and delivered in satisfaction of any sinking fund requirements provided for shares of such series, (3) converted in accordance with the express terms thereof, or (4) otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall resume the status of authorized but unissued Class H Shares without serial designation.

(d) Except in connection with the exercise of the Corporation’s rights pursuant to Section (d) of Item XIV of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized, the Corporation may not purchase or redeem (for sinking fund purposes or otherwise) less than all of the Class H Shares then outstanding except in accordance with a stock purchase offer made to all holders of record of Class H Shares, unless all dividends on all Class H Shares then outstanding for all previous and current dividend periods shall have been declared and paid or funds therefor set apart and all accrued sinking fund obligations applicable thereto shall have been complied with.

72

Section 4. Liquidation.

(a) (1) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, the holders of Class H Shares of any series shall be entitled to receive in full out of the assets of the Corporation, including its capital, before any amount shall be paid or distributed among the holders of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class H Shares, the amounts fixed with respect to shares of such series in accordance with Section 1 of this Item VIII, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment of the amount due pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation. In the event the net assets of the Corporation legally available therefor are insufficient to permit the payment upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares of the full preferential amount to which they are respectively entitled, then such net assets shall be distributed ratably upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such share is entitled.

(2) After payment to the holders of Class H Shares of the full preferential amounts as aforesaid, the holders of Class H Shares, as such, shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

(b) The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other Corporation, the merger of any other Corporation into it, or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation shall not be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up for the purposes of this Section.

Section 5. Voting.

(a) The holders of Class H Shares shall have no voting rights, except as provided in this Section or required by law.

(b) (1) If, and so often as, the Corporation shall be in default in the payment of dividends on any series of Class H Shares at the time outstanding, whether or not earned or declared, for a number of dividend payment periods, whether consecutive or not, which in the aggregate contain at least 540 days, all holders of such Class H Shares, voting separately as a class, together with all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable under the circumstances described in Subsection 5(c), shall be entitled to elect, as herein provided, a total of two members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation; provided, however, that the holders of such Class H Shares shall not exercise such special class voting rights except at meetings of

73

such shareholders for the election of directors at which the holders of not less than 50% of such Class H Shares are present in person or by proxy; and provided further that the special class voting rights provided for in this paragraph when the same shall have become vested shall remain so vested until all accrued and unpaid dividends on such Class H Shares then outstanding shall have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment, whereupon the holders of such Class H Shares shall be divested of their special class voting rights in respect of subsequent elections of directors, subject to the revesting of such special class voting rights in the event above specified in this paragraph. All dividend payments made on the Class H Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such Class H Shares for any dividend period, shall be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

(2) In the event of default entitling holders of Class H Shares to elect two directors as specified in paragraph (1) of this Subsection, a special meeting of such holders for the purpose of electing such directors shall be called by the Secretary of the Corporation upon written request of, or may be called by, the holders of record of at least 10% of the Class H Shares upon which such default in the payment of dividends exists and notice thereof shall be given in the same manner as that required for the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to call such special meeting if the annual meeting of shareholders shall be called to be held within 90 days after the date of receipt of the foregoing written request from the holders of Class H Shares. At any meeting at which such holders of Class H Shares shall be entitled to elect directors, holders of 50% of such Class H Shares, present in person or by proxy, shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the vote of the holders of a majority of such shares so present at any such meeting at which there shall be such a quorum shall be sufficient to elect the members of the Board of Directors which such holders of Class H Shares are entitled to elect as herein provided. Notwithstanding any provision of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Code of Regulations of the Corporation or any action taken by the holders of any class of shares fixing the number of directors of the Corporation, the two directors who may be elected by such holders of Class H Shares pursuant to this Subsection shall serve in addition to any other directors then in office or proposed to be elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Nothing in this Subsection shall prevent any change otherwise permitted in the total number of or classifications of directors of the Corporation or require the resignation of any director elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Notwithstanding any classification of the other directors of the Corporation, the two directors elected by such holders of Class H Shares shall be elected annually for terms expiring at the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders.

74

(3) Upon any divesting of the special class voting rights of the holders of the Class H Shares in respect of elections of directors as provided in this Subsection, the terms of office of all directors then in office elected by such

holders shall terminate immediately thereupon. If the office of any director elected by such holders voting as a class becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, removal from office or otherwise, the remaining director elected by such holders voting as a class may elect a successor who shall hold office for the unexpired term in respect of which such vacancy occurred.

(c) If at any time when the holders of Class H Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section the holders of any Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares or Noncumulative Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant hereto by reason of any default in the payment of dividends thereon, then the voting rights of the Cumulative Shares and the Noncumulative Shares then entitled to vote shall be combined (with each class of shares having a number of votes proportional to the aggregate liquidation preference of its outstanding shares). In such case, the holders of Class H Shares and of all such other shares then entitled so to vote, voting as a class, shall elect such directors. If the holders of any such other shares have elected such directors prior to the happening of the default or event permitting the holders of Class H Shares to elect directors, or prior to a written request for the holding of a special meeting being received by the Secretary of the Corporation as required above, then a new election shall be held with all such other shares and the Class H Shares voting together as a single class for such directors, resulting in the termination of the term of such previously elected directors upon the election of such new directors.

(d) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class H Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect either of the following:

(1) Any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class H Shares which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class H Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class H Shares nor the amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class H Shares; or

(2) The authorization, creation or increase in the authorized number of any shares, or any security convertible into shares, in either case ranking prior to such series of Class H Shares.

75

(e) In the event, and only to the extent, that (1) Class H Shares are issued in more than one series and (2) Ohio law permits the holders of a series of a class of capital stock to vote separately as a class, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of each series of Class H Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such matters, shall be required for any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class H Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class H Shares nor the Amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series.

Section 6. 7 3/8% Class H Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares. Of the 750,000 authorized Class H Shares, 410,000 shares are designated as a series entitled “7 3/8% Class H Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares” (hereinafter called “7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares”). The 7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares shall have the express terms set forth in this Division as being applicable to all Class H Shares as a class and, in addition, the following express terms applicable to all 7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares as a series of Class H Shares:

(a) The annual dividend rate of the 7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares shall be 7 3/8% of the liquidation preference of $500.00 per share.

The dividends payable for each full quarterly dividend period on each 7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares shall be $9.21875.

Dividends for the initial dividend period on the 7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares, or for any period shorter or longer than a full dividend period on the 7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The aggregate dividend payable quarterly to each holder of 7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares shall be rounded to the nearest one one-hundredth of one cent with $.00005 being rounded upward. Each dividend shall be payable to the holders of record on such record date, no less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the payment date thereof, as shall be fixed from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors.

76

(c) Dividends on 7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares shall be cumulative as follows:

(1) With respect to shares included in the initial issue of 7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares and shares issued any time thereafter up to and including the record date for the payment of the first dividend on the initial issue of 7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares, dividends shall be cumulative from the date of the initial issue of 7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares; and

(2) With respect to shares issued any time after the aforesaid record date, dividends shall be cumulative from the dividend payment date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, except that if such shares are issued during the period commencing the day after the record date for the payment of a dividend on 7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares and ending on the payment date of that dividend, dividends with respect to such shares shall be cumulative from that dividend payment date.

(d) Except as required to preserve the Company’s status as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the 7 3/8% Class H Preferred Shares may not be redeemed prior to July 28, 2008.

78

The Board of Directors is authorized to adopt from time to time amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, fixing, with respect to each such series, the matters described in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section and is authorized to take such actions with respect thereto as may be required by law in order to effect such amendments.

Section 2. Dividends.

(a) The holders of Class I Shares of each series, in preference to the holders of Common Shares and of any other class of shares ranking junior to the Class I Shares, shall be entitled to receive out of any funds legally available therefor, and when and as declared by the Board of Directors, dividends in cash at the rate or rates for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 above and no more, payable on the dates fixed for such series. Such dividends shall accrue and be cumulative, in the case of shares of each particular series, from and after the date or dates fixed with respect to such series. No dividends shall be paid upon or declared or set apart for any series of the Class I Shares for any dividend period unless at the same time (i) a like proportionate dividend for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date, ratably in proportion to the respective annual dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class I Shares of all series then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividend and (ii) the dividends payable for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date (but, with respect to Noncumulative Shares, only with respect to the then current dividend period), ratably in proportion to the respective dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividends.

(b) So long as any Class I Shares shall be outstanding no dividend, except a dividend payable in Common Shares or other shares ranking junior to the Class I Shares, shall be paid or declared or any distribution be made, except as aforesaid, in respect of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class I Shares, nor shall any Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class I Shares be purchased, retired or otherwise acquired by the Corporation, except out of the proceeds of the sale of Common Shares or other shares of the Corporation ranking junior to the Class I Shares received by the Corporation subsequent to the date of first issuance of Class I Shares of any series, unless:

(1) All accrued and unpaid dividends on Cumulative Shares, including the full dividends for all current dividend periods, shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment thereof set apart;

79

(2) All unpaid dividends on Noncumulative Shares for the then current dividend period shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment therefor set apart; and

(3) There shall be no arrearages with respect to the redemption of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares of any series from any sinking fund provided for shares of such series in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item IX.

(c) The foregoing restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions on, or on the purchase, redemption retirement or other acquisition of, Common Shares or any other shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class I Shares shall be inapplicable to (i) any payments in lieu of issuance of fractional shares thereof, whether upon any merger, conversion, stock dividend or otherwise, (ii) the conversion of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares into Common Shares, or (iii) the exercise by the Corporation of its rights pursuant to Item XIV(d) of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized.

(d) If, for any taxable year, the Corporation elects to designate as “capital gain dividends” (as defined in Section 857 of the Code) any portion (the “Capital Gains Amount”) of the dividends paid or made available for the year to holders of all classes of stock (the “Total Dividends”), then, to the extent permissible under the Code and to the extent it does not cause any dividends to fail to qualify for the dividends paid deduction under Section 561 of the Code, the portion of the Capital Gains Amount that shall be allocable to holders of the Class I Shares shall be the amount that the total dividends paid or made available to the holders of the Class I Shares for the year bears to the Total Dividends.

Section 3. Redemption.

(a) Subject to the express terms of each series, the Corporation:

(1) May, from time to time at the option of the Board of Directors, redeem all or any part of any redeemable series of Class I Shares at the time outstanding at the applicable redemption price for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item IX; and

(2) Shall, from time to time, make such redemptions of each series of Class I Shares as may be required to fulfill the requirements of any sinking fund provided for shares of such series at the applicable sinking fund redemption price fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item IX; and shall in each case pay all accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.

80

(b) (1) Notice of every such redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the holders of record of the Class I Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or such other time prior thereto as the Board of Directors shall fix for any series pursuant to Section 1 of this Item IX prior to the issuance thereof. At any time after notice as provided above has been deposited in the mail, the Corporation may deposit the aggregate redemption price of Class I Shares to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the redemption date, with any bank or trust company in Cleveland, Ohio, or New York, New York, having capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000 named in such notice and direct that there be paid to the respective holders of the Class I Shares so to be redeemed amounts equal to the redemption price of the Class I Shares so to be redeemed, together with such accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, on surrender of the share certificate or certificates held by such holders; and upon the deposit of such notice in the mail and the making of such deposit of money with such bank or trust company, such holders shall cease to be shareholders with respect to such shares; and from and after the time such notice shall have been so deposited and such deposit of money shall have been so made, such holders shall have no rights or claim against the Corporation with respect to such shares, except only the right to receive such money from such bank or trust company without interest or to exercise before the redemption date any unexpired privileges of conversion. In the event less than all of the outstanding Class I Shares are to be redeemed, the Corporation shall select by lot the shares so to be redeemed in such manner as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

(2) If the holders of Class I Shares which have been called for redemption shall not within six years after such deposit claim the amount deposited for the redemption thereof, any such bank or trust company shall, upon demand, pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed amounts and thereupon such bank or trust company and the Corporation shall be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof and to such holders.

(c) Any Class I Shares which are (1) redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (2) purchased and delivered in satisfaction of any sinking fund requirements provided for shares of such series, (3) converted in accordance with the express terms thereof, or (4) otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall resume the status of authorized but unissued Class I Shares without serial designation.

(d) Except in connection with the exercise of the Corporation’s rights pursuant to Section (d) of Item XIV of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized, the Corporation may not purchase or redeem (for sinking fund purposes or otherwise) less than all of the Class I Shares then outstanding except in accordance with a stock purchase offer made to all holders of record of Class I Shares, unless all dividends on all Class I Shares then outstanding for all previous and current dividend periods shall have been declared and paid or funds therefor set apart and all accrued sinking fund obligations applicable thereto shall have been complied with.

81

Section 4. Liquidation.

(a) (1) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, the holders of Class I Shares of any series shall be entitled to receive in full out of the assets of the Corporation, including its capital, before any amount shall be paid or distributed among the holders of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class I Shares, the amounts fixed with respect to shares of such series in accordance with Section 1 of this Item IX, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment of the amount due pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation. In the event the net assets of the Corporation legally available therefor are insufficient to permit the payment upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares of the full preferential amount to which they are respectively entitled, then such net assets shall be distributed ratably upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such share is entitled.

(2) After payment to the holders of Class I Shares of the full preferential amounts as aforesaid, the holders of Class I Shares, as such, shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

(b) The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other Corporation, the merger of any other Corporation into it, or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation shall not be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up for the purposes of this Section.

Section 5. Voting.

(a) The holders of Class I Shares shall have no voting rights, except as provided in this Section or required by law.

(b) (1) If, and so often as, the Corporation shall be in default in the payment of dividends on any series of Class I Shares at the time outstanding, whether or not earned or declared, for a number of dividend payment periods, whether consecutive or not, which in the aggregate contain at least 540 days, all holders of such Class I Shares, voting separately as a class, together with all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable under the circumstances described in Subsection 5(c), shall be entitled to elect, as herein provided, a total of two members of the Board of

82

Directors of the Corporation; provided, however, that the holders of such Class I Shares shall not exercise such special class voting rights except at meetings of such shareholders for the election of directors at which the holders of not less than 50% of such Class I Shares are present in person or by proxy; and provided further that the special class voting rights provided for in this paragraph when the same shall have become vested shall remain so vested until all accrued and unpaid dividends on such Class I Shares then outstanding shall have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment, whereupon the holders of such Class I Shares shall be divested of their special class voting rights in respect of subsequent elections of directors, subject to the revesting of such special class voting rights in the event above specified in this paragraph. All dividend payments made on the Class I Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such Class I Shares for any dividend period, shall be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

(2) In the event of default entitling holders of Class I Shares to elect two directors as specified in paragraph (1) of this Subsection, a special meeting of such holders for the purpose of electing such directors shall be called by the Secretary of the Corporation upon written request of, or may be called by, the holders of record of at least 10% of the Class I Shares upon which such default in the payment of dividends exists and notice thereof shall be given in the same manner as that required for the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to call such special meeting if the annual meeting of shareholders shall be called to be held within 90 days after the date of receipt of the foregoing written request from the holders of Class I Shares. At any meeting at which such holders of Class I Shares shall be entitled to elect directors, holders of 50% of such Class I Shares, present in person or by proxy, shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the vote of the holders of a majority of such shares so present at any such meeting at which there shall be such a quorum shall be sufficient to elect the members of the Board of Directors which such holders of Class I Shares are entitled to elect as herein provided. Notwithstanding any provision of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Code of Regulations of the Corporation or any action taken by the holders of any class of shares fixing the number of directors of the Corporation, the two directors who may be elected by such holders of Class I Shares pursuant to this Subsection shall serve in addition to any other directors then in office or proposed to be elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Nothing in this Subsection shall prevent any change otherwise permitted in the total number of or classifications of directors of the Corporation or require the resignation of any director elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Notwithstanding any classification of the other directors of the Corporation, the two directors elected by such holders of Class I Shares shall be elected annually for terms expiring at the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders.

83

(3) Upon any divesting of the special class voting rights of the holders of the Class I Shares in respect of elections of directors as provided in this Subsection, the terms of office of all directors then in office elected by such holders shall terminate immediately thereupon. If the office of any director elected by such holders voting as a class becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, removal from office or otherwise, the remaining director elected by such holders voting as a class may elect a successor who shall hold office for the unexpired term in respect of which such vacancy occurred.

(c) If at any time when the holders of Class I Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section the holders of any Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares or Noncumulative Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant hereto by reason of any default in the payment of dividends thereon, then the voting rights of the Cumulative Shares and the Noncumulative Shares then entitled to vote shall be combined (with each class of shares having a number of votes proportional to the aggregate liquidation preference of its outstanding shares). In such case, the holders of Class I Shares and of all such other shares then entitled so to vote, voting as a class, shall elect such directors. If the holders of any such other shares have elected such directors prior to the happening of the default or event permitting the holders of Class I Shares to elect directors, or prior to a written request for the holding of a special meeting being received by the Secretary of the Corporation as required above, then a new election shall be held with all such other shares and the Class I Shares voting together as a single class for such directors, resulting in the termination of the term of such previously elected directors upon the election of such new directors.

(d) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class I Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect either of the following:

(1) Any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class I Shares which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class I Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class I Shares nor the amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class I Shares; or

84

(2) The authorization, creation or increase in the authorized number of any shares, or any security convertible into shares, in either case ranking prior to such series of Class I Shares.

(e) In the event, and only to the extent, that (1) Class I Shares are issued in more than one series and (2) Ohio law permits the holders of a series of a class of capital stock to vote separately as a class, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of each series of Class I Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such matters, shall be required for any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class I Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class I Shares nor the Amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series.

Section 6. 7.50% Class I Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares.

The aggregate dividend payable quarterly to each holder of 7.50% Class I Preferred Shares shall be rounded to the nearest one

85

one-hundredth of one cent with $.00005 being rounded upward. Each dividend shall be payable to the holders of record on such record date, no less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the payment date thereof, as shall be fixed from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors.

(c) Dividends on 7.50% Class I Preferred Shares shall be cumulative as follows:

(1) With respect to shares included in the initial issue of 7.50% Class I Preferred Shares and shares issued any time thereafter up to and including the record date for the payment of the first dividend on the initial issue of 7.50% Class I Preferred Shares, dividends shall be cumulative from the date of the initial issue of 7.50% Class I Preferred Shares; and

(2) With respect to shares issued any time after the aforesaid record date, dividends shall be cumulative from the dividend payment date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, except that if such shares are issued during the period commencing the day after the record date for the payment of a dividend on 7.50% Class I Preferred Shares and ending on the payment date of that dividend, dividends with respect to such shares shall be cumulative from that dividend payment date.

(d) Except as required to preserve the Company’s status as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the 7.50% Class I Preferred Shares may not be redeemed prior to May 7, 2009. At any time or from time to time on and after May 7, 2009 the Company, at its option upon not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days’ written notice, may redeem all or any part of the 7.50% Class I Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $500.00 per share plus, in each case, an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the redemption date, without interest.

Subject to the provisions of Sections 2 through 5, both inclusive, and Item XIII of this Division, which provisions shall apply to all Class J Shares, the Board of Directors hereby is authorized to cause such shares to be issued in one or more series and, with respect to each such series to determine and fix prior to the issuance thereof (and thereafter, to the extent provided in clause (b) of this Section), the following:

The Board of Directors is authorized to adopt from time to time amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, fixing, with respect to each such series, the matters described in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section and is authorized to take such actions with respect thereto as may be required by law in order to effect such amendments.

Section 2. Dividends.

(b) (1) Notice of every such redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the holders of record of the Class J Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or such other time prior thereto as the Board of Directors shall fix for any series pursuant to Section 1 of this Item X prior to the issuance thereof. At any time after notice as provided above has been deposited in the mail, the Corporation may deposit the aggregate redemption price of Class J Shares to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the redemption date, with any bank or trust company in Cleveland, Ohio, or New York, New York, having capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000 named in such notice and direct that there be paid to the respective holders of the Class J Shares so to be redeemed amounts equal to the redemption price of the Class J Shares so to be redeemed, together with such accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, on surrender of the share certificate or certificates held by such holders; and upon the deposit of such notice in the mail and the making of such deposit of money with such bank or trust company, such holders shall cease to be shareholders with respect to such shares; and from and after the time such notice shall have been so deposited and such deposit of money shall have been so made, such holders shall have no rights or claim against the Corporation with respect to such shares, except only the right to receive such money from such bank or trust company without interest or to exercise before the redemption date any unexpired privileges of conversion. In the event less than all of the outstanding Class J Shares are to be redeemed, the Corporation shall select by lot the shares so to be redeemed in such manner as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

(2) If the holders of Class J Shares which have been called for redemption shall not within six years after such deposit claim the amount deposited for the redemption thereof, any such bank or trust company shall, upon demand, pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed amounts and thereupon such bank or trust company and the Corporation shall be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof and to such holders.

(c) Any Class J Shares which are (1) redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (2) purchased and delivered in satisfaction of any sinking fund requirements provided for shares of such series, (3) converted in accordance with the express terms thereof, or (4) otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall resume the status of authorized but unissued Class J Shares without serial designation.

(d) Except in connection with the exercise of the Corporation’s rights pursuant to Section (d) of Item XIV of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated

90

Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized, the Corporation may not purchase or redeem (for sinking fund purposes or otherwise) less than all of the Class J Shares then outstanding except in accordance with a stock purchase offer made to all holders of record of Class J Shares, unless all dividends on all Class J Shares then outstanding for all previous and current dividend periods shall have been declared and paid or funds therefor set apart and all accrued sinking fund obligations applicable thereto shall have been complied with.

Section 4. Liquidation.

(a) (1) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, the holders of Class J Shares of any series shall be entitled to receive in full out of the assets of the Corporation, including its capital, before any amount shall be paid or distributed among the holders of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class J Shares, the amounts fixed with respect to shares of such series in accordance with Section 1 of this Item X, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment of the amount due pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation. In the event the net assets of the Corporation legally available therefor are insufficient to permit the payment upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares of the full preferential amount to which they are respectively entitled, then such net assets shall be distributed ratably upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such share is entitled.

(2) After payment to the holders of Class J Shares of the full preferential amounts as aforesaid, the holders of Class J Shares, as such, shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

(b) The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other Corporation, the merger of any other Corporation into it, or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation shall not be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up for the purposes of this Section.

Section 5. Voting.

(a) The holders of Class J Shares shall have no voting rights, except as provided in this Section or required by law.

(b) (1) If, and so often as, the Corporation shall be in default in the payment of dividends on any series of Class J Shares at the time outstanding, whether or not earned or declared, for a number of dividend payment periods, whether consecutive or not, which in the aggregate contain at least 540 days, all holders of such Class J Shares, voting separately as a class, together with all

91

Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable under the circumstances described in Subsection 5(c), shall be entitled to elect, as herein provided, a total of two members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation; provided, however, that the holders of such Class J Shares shall not exercise such special class voting rights except at meetings of such shareholders for the election of directors at which the holders of not less than 50% of such Class J Shares are present in person or by proxy; and provided further that the special class voting rights provided for in this paragraph when the same shall have become vested shall remain so vested until all accrued and unpaid dividends on such Class J Shares then outstanding shall have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment, whereupon the holders of such Class J Shares shall be divested of their special class voting rights in respect of subsequent elections of directors, subject to the revesting of such special class voting rights in the event above specified in this paragraph. All dividend payments made on the Class J Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such Class J Shares for any dividend period, shall be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

(2) In the event of default entitling holders of Class J Shares to elect two directors as specified in paragraph (1) of this Subsection, a special meeting of such holders for the purpose of electing such directors shall be called by the Secretary of the Corporation upon written request of, or may be called by, the holders of record of at least 10% of the Class J Shares upon which such default in the payment of dividends exists and notice thereof shall be given in the same manner as that required for the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to call such special meeting if the annual meeting of shareholders shall be called to be held within 90 days after the date of receipt of the foregoing written request from the holders of Class J Shares. At any meeting at which such holders of Class J Shares shall be entitled to elect directors, holders of 50% of such Class J Shares, present in person or by proxy, shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the vote of the holders of a majority of such shares so present at any such meeting at which there shall be such a quorum shall be sufficient to elect the members of the Board of Directors which such holders of Class J Shares are entitled to elect as herein provided. Notwithstanding any provision of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Code of Regulations of the Corporation or any action taken by the holders of any class of shares fixing the number of directors of the Corporation, the two directors who may be elected by such holders of Class J Shares pursuant to this Subsection shall serve in addition to any other directors then in office or proposed to be elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Nothing in this Subsection shall prevent any change otherwise permitted in the total number of or classifications of directors of the Corporation or require the resignation of any director elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Notwithstanding any classification of the other directors of the Corporation, the two directors elected by such holders of Class J Shares shall be elected annually for terms expiring at the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders.

92

(3) Upon any divesting of the special class voting rights of the holders of the Class J Shares in respect of elections of directors as provided in this Subsection, the terms of office of all directors then in office elected by such holders shall terminate immediately thereupon. If the office of any director elected by such holders voting as a class becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, removal from office or otherwise, the remaining director elected by such holders voting as a class may elect a successor who shall hold office for the unexpired term in respect of which such vacancy occurred.

(c) If at any time when the holders of Class J Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section the holders of any Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class K Shares or Noncumulative Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant hereto by reason of any default in the payment of dividends thereon, then the voting rights of the Cumulative Shares and the Noncumulative Shares then entitled to vote shall be combined (with each class of shares having a number of votes proportional to the aggregate liquidation preference of its outstanding shares). In such case, the holders of Class J Shares and of all such other shares then entitled so to vote, voting as a class, shall elect such directors. If the holders of any such other shares have elected such directors prior to the happening of the default or event permitting the holders of Class J Shares to elect directors, or prior to a written request for the holding of a special meeting being received by the Secretary of the Corporation as required above, then a new election shall be held with all such other shares and the Class J Shares voting together as a single class for such directors, resulting in the termination of the term of such previously elected directors upon the election of such new directors.

(d) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class J Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect either of the following:

(1) Any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class J Shares which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class J Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class J Shares nor the amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Class J Shares; or

93

(2) The authorization, creation or increase in the authorized number of any shares, or any security convertible into shares, in either case ranking prior to such series of Class J Shares.

(e) In the event, and only to the extent, that (1) Class J Shares are issued in more than one series and (2) Ohio law permits the holders of a series of a class of capital stock to vote separately as a class, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of each series of Class J Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such matters, shall be required for any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Class J Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class J Shares nor the Amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series.

Section 6. 9% Class J Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares. Of the 750,000 authorized Class J Shares, 450,000 shares are designated as a series entitled “9% Class J Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares” (hereinafter called “9% Class J Preferred Shares”). The 9% Class J Preferred Share shall have the express terms set forth in this Division as being applicable to all Class J Preferred Shares as a class and, in addition, the following express terms applicable to all 9% Class J Preferred Shares as a series of Class J Shares:

(a) The annual dividend rate of the 9% Class J Preferred Shares shall be 9% of the liquidation preference of $250.00 per share.

(b) Dividends on the 9% Class J Preferred Shares shall be payable, if declared, quarterly on or about the fifteenth day of January, April, July and October. The dividends payable for each full quarterly dividend period on each 9% Class J Preferred Share shall be $5.625. Dividends for any period shorter or longer than a full dividend period on the 9% Class J Preferred Shares, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The aggregate dividend payable quarterly to each holder of 9% Class J Preferred Shares shall be rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one cent with $.00005 being rounded upward. Each dividend shall be payable to the holders of record on such record date, no less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the payment date thereof, as shall be fixed from time to time by the Corporation’s Board of Directors.

94

(c) Dividends on 9% Class J Preferred Shares shall be cumulative as follows:

(1) With respect to shares included in the initial issue of 9% Class J Preferred Shares and shares issued any time thereafter up to and including the record date for the payment of the first dividend on the initial issue of 9% Class J Preferred Shares, dividends shall be cumulative from the date of the initial issue of 9% Class J Preferred Shares; and

(2) With respect to shares issued any time after the aforesaid record date, dividends shall be cumulative from the dividend payment date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, except that if such shares are issued during the period commencing the day after the record date for the payment of a dividend on 9% Class J Preferred Shares and ending on the payment date of that dividend, dividends with respect to such shares shall be cumulative from that dividend payment date.

(d) The Corporation may, at any time or from time to time on, at its option upon not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days’ written notice, may redeem all or any part of the 9% Class J Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $250.00 per share plus, in each case, an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the redemption date, without interest. The redemption price (other than the portion thereof consisting of accrued and unpaid dividends) is payable solely out of the sale proceeds of other capital shares of the Corporation, which may include any equity securities (including common shares and preferred shares), shares, interests, participation or other ownership interests (however designated) and any rights (other than debt securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities), or options to purchase any of the foregoing.

(e) The amount payable per 9% Class J Preferred Share in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation shall be $250.00, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment.

(f) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class J Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect the authorization, creation, increase in the authorized number of or issuance of any shares, or any security convertible into or exchangeable for shares, in any such case ranking prior to such series of Class J Preferred Shares in dividends, distributions or rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

95

XI. The Class K Cumulative Preferred Shares. The Class K Shares shall have the following express terms:

Section 1. Series. The Class K Shares may be issued from time to time in one or more series. All Class K Shares shall be of equal rank and shall be identical, except in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as hereinafter provided, and each share of a series shall be identical with all other shares of such series, except as to the dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative. All Class K Shares shall rank on a parity with the Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares and Noncumulative Shares and shall be identical to all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares and Noncumulative Shares except (1) in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as provided in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section 1 and (2) only dividends on Cumulative Shares shall be cumulative as set forth herein. Subject to the provisions of Sections 2 through 5, both inclusive, and Item XIII of this Division, which provisions shall apply to all Class K Shares, the Board of Directors hereby is authorized to cause such shares to be issued in one or more series and, with respect to each such series to determine and fix prior to the issuance thereof (and thereafter, to the extent provided in clause (b) of this Section), the following:

(a) The designation of the series, which may be by distinguishing number, letter or title;

(b) The authorized number of shares of the series, which number the Board of Directors may (except where otherwise provided in the creation of the series) increase or decrease from time to time before or after the issuance thereof (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding);

(c) The dividend rate or rates of the series, including the means by which such rates may be established;

(d) The date or dates from which dividends shall accrue and be cumulative and the dates on which and the period or periods for which dividends, if declared, shall be payable, including the means by which such dates and periods may be established;

(e) The redemption rights and price or prices, if any, for shares of the series;

(f) The terms and amount of the sinking fund, if any, for the purchase or redemption of shares of the series;

96

(g) The amounts payable on shares of the series in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation;

(h) Whether the shares of the series shall be convertible into Common Shares or shares of any other class and, if so, the conversion rate or rates or price or prices, any adjustments thereof and all other terms and conditions upon which such conversion may be made; and

(i) Restrictions (in addition to those set forth in Subsection 5(d) or 5(e) of this Item XI) on the issuance of shares of the same series or of any other class or series.

The Board of Directors is authorized to adopt from time to time amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, fixing, with respect to each such series, the matters described in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section and is authorized to take such actions with respect thereto as may be required by law in order to effect such amendments.

Section 2. Dividends.

(a) The holders of Class K Shares of each series, in preference to the holders of Common Shares and of any other class of shares ranking junior to the Class K Shares, shall be entitled to receive out of any funds legally available therefor, and when and as declared by the Board of Directors, dividends in cash at the rate or rates for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 above and no more, payable on the dates fixed for such series. Such dividends shall accrue and be cumulative, in the case of shares of each particular series, from and after the date or dates fixed with respect to such series. No dividends shall be paid upon or declared or set apart for any series of the Class K Shares for any dividend period unless at the same time (i) a like proportionate dividend for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date, ratably in proportion to the respective annual dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class K Shares of all series then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividend and (ii) the dividends payable for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date (but, with respect to Noncumulative Shares, only with respect to the then current dividend period), ratably in proportion to the respective dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares and Noncumulative Shares then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividends.

97

(b) So long as any Class K Shares shall be outstanding no dividend, except a dividend payable in Common Shares or other shares ranking junior to the Class K Shares, shall be paid or declared or any distribution be made, except

as aforesaid, in respect of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class K Shares, nor shall any Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class K Shares be purchased, retired or otherwise acquired by the Corporation, except out of the proceeds of the sale of Common Shares or other shares of the Corporation ranking junior to the Class K Shares received by the Corporation subsequent to the date of first issuance of Class K Shares of any series, unless:

(1) All accrued and unpaid dividends on Cumulative Shares, including the full dividends for all current dividend periods, shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment thereof set apart;

(2) All unpaid dividends on Noncumulative Shares for the then current dividend period shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment therefor set apart; and

(c) The foregoing restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions on, or on the purchase, redemption retirement or other acquisition of, Common Shares or any other shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Class K Shares shall be inapplicable to (i) any payments in lieu of issuance of fractional shares thereof, whether upon any merger, conversion, stock dividend or otherwise, (ii) the conversion of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares into Common Shares, or (iii) the exercise by the Corporation of its rights pursuant to Item XIV(d) of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized.

(d) If, for any taxable year, the Corporation elects to designate as “capital gain dividends” (as defined in Section 857 of the Code) any portion (the “Capital Gains Amount”) of the dividends paid or made available for the year to holders of all classes of stock (the “Total Dividends”), then, to the extent permissible under the Code and to the extent it does not cause any dividends to fail to qualify for the dividends paid deduction under Section 561 of the Code, the portion of the Capital Gains Amount that shall be allocable to holders of the Class K Shares shall be the amount that the total dividends paid or made available to the holders of the Class K Shares for the year bears to the Total Dividends.

Section 3. Redemption.

(a) Subject to the express terms of each series, the Corporation:

98

(1) May, from time to time at the option of the Board of Directors, redeem all or any part of any redeemable series of Class K Shares at the time outstanding at the applicable redemption price for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item XI; and

(2) Shall, from time to time, make such redemptions of each series of Class K Shares as may be required to fulfill the requirements of any sinking fund provided for shares of such series at the applicable sinking fund redemption price fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item XI; and shall in each case pay all accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.

(b) (1) Notice of every such redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the holders of record of the Class K Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or such other time prior thereto as the Board of Directors shall fix for any series pursuant to Section 1 of this Item XI prior to the issuance thereof. At any time after notice as provided above has been deposited in the mail, the Corporation may deposit the aggregate redemption price of Class K Shares to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the redemption date, with any bank or trust company in Cleveland, Ohio, or New York, New York, having capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000 named in such notice and direct that there be paid to the respective holders of the Class K Shares so to be redeemed amounts equal to the redemption price of the Class K Shares so to be redeemed, together with such accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, on surrender of the share certificate or certificates held by such holders; and upon the deposit of such notice in the mail and the making of such deposit of money with such bank or trust company, such holders shall cease to be shareholders with respect to such shares; and from and after the time such notice shall have been so deposited and such deposit of money shall have been so made, such holders shall have no rights or claim against the Corporation with respect to such shares, except only the right to receive such money from such bank or trust company without interest or to exercise before the redemption date any unexpired privileges of conversion. In the event less than all of the outstanding Class K Shares are to be redeemed, the Corporation shall select by lot the shares so to be redeemed in such manner as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

(2) If the holders of Class K Shares which have been called for redemption shall not within six years after such deposit claim the amount deposited for the redemption thereof, any such bank or trust company shall, upon demand, pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed amounts and thereupon such bank or trust company and the Corporation shall be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof and to such holders.

99

(c) Any Class K Shares which are (1) redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (2) purchased and delivered in satisfaction of any sinking fund requirements provided for shares of such series, (3) converted in accordance with the express terms thereof, or (4) otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall resume the status of authorized but unissued Class K Shares without serial designation.

(d) Except in connection with the exercise of the Corporation’s rights pursuant to Section (d) of Item XIV of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized, the Corporation may not purchase or redeem (for sinking fund purposes or otherwise) less than all of the Class K Shares then outstanding except in accordance with a stock purchase offer made to all holders of record of Class K Shares, unless all dividends on all Class K Shares then outstanding for all previous and current dividend periods shall have been declared and paid or funds therefor set apart and all accrued sinking fund obligations applicable thereto shall have been complied with.

Section 4. Liquidation.

(a) (1) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, the holders of Class K Shares of any series shall be entitled to receive in full out of the assets of the Corporation, including its capital, before any amount shall be paid or distributed among the holders of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Class K Shares, the amounts fixed with respect to shares of such series in accordance with Section 1 of this Item XI, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment of the amount due pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation. In the event the net assets of the Corporation legally available therefor are insufficient to permit the payment upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares of the full preferential amount to which they are respectively entitled, then such net assets shall be distributed ratably upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such share is entitled.

(2) After payment to the holders of Class K Shares of the full preferential amounts as aforesaid, the holders of Class K Shares, as such, shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

(b) The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other Corporation, the merger of any other Corporation into it, or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation shall not be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up for the purposes of this Section.

100

Section 5. Voting.

(a) The holders of Class K Shares shall have no voting rights, except as provided in this Section or required by law.

(b) (1) If, and so often as, the Corporation shall be in default in the payment of dividends on any series of Class K Shares at the time outstanding, whether or not earned or declared, for a number of dividend payment periods, whether consecutive or not, which in the aggregate contain at least 540 days, all holders of such Class K Shares, voting separately as a class, together with all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares and Noncumulative Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable under the circumstances described in Subsection 5(c), shall be entitled to elect, as herein provided, a total of two members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation; provided, however, that the holders of such Class K Shares shall not exercise such special class voting rights except at meetings of such shareholders for the election of directors at which the holders of not less than 50% of such Class K Shares are present in person or by proxy; and provided further that the special class voting rights provided for in this paragraph when the same shall have become vested shall remain so vested until all accrued and unpaid dividends on such Class K Shares then outstanding shall have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment, whereupon the holders of such Class K Shares shall be divested of their special class voting rights in respect of subsequent elections of directors, subject to the revesting of such special class voting rights in the event above specified in this paragraph. All dividend payments made on the Class K Shares, at any time during which the Corporation is in default in the payment of dividends on such Class K Shares for any dividend period, shall be deemed to be made in respect of the earliest dividend period with respect to which the Corporation is in default.

(2) In the event of default entitling holders of Class K Shares to elect two directors as specified in paragraph (1) of this Subsection, a special meeting of such holders for the purpose of electing such directors shall be called by the Secretary of the Corporation upon written request of, or may be called by, the holders of record of at least 10% of the Class K Shares upon which such default in the payment of dividends exists and notice thereof shall be given in the same manner as that required for the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to call such special meeting if the annual meeting of shareholders shall be called to be held within 90 days after the date of receipt of the foregoing written request from the holders of Class K Shares. At any meeting at which such holders of Class K Shares shall be entitled to elect directors, holders of 50% of such Class K Shares, present in person or by proxy, shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the vote of the holders of a majority of such shares so present at any such meeting at which there shall be such a quorum shall be sufficient to elect the members of the Board of Directors which such holders of Class K Shares are entitled to elect as herein provided. Notwithstanding any provision of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Code of Regulations of the Corporation or any

101

action taken by the holders of any class of shares fixing the number of directors of the Corporation, the two directors who may be elected by such holders of Class K Shares pursuant to this Subsection shall serve in addition to any other directors then in office or proposed to be elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Nothing in this Subsection shall prevent any change otherwise permitted in the total number of or classifications of directors of the Corporation or require the resignation of any director elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Notwithstanding any classification of the other directors of the Corporation, the two directors elected by such holders of Class K Shares shall be elected annually for terms expiring at the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders.

(3) Upon any divesting of the special class voting rights of the holders of the Class K Shares in respect of elections of directors as provided in this Subsection, the terms of office of all directors then in office elected by such holders shall terminate immediately thereupon. If the office of any director elected by such holders voting as a class becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, removal from office or otherwise, the remaining director elected by such holders voting as a class may elect a successor who shall hold office for the unexpired term in respect of which such vacancy occurred.

(c) If at any time when the holders of Class K Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section the holders of any Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares or Noncumulative Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant hereto by reason of any default in the payment of dividends thereon, then the voting rights of the Cumulative Shares and the Noncumulative Shares then entitled to vote shall be combined (with each class of shares having a number of votes proportional to the aggregate liquidation preference of its outstanding shares). In such case, the holders of Class K Shares and of all such other shares then entitled so to vote, voting as a class, shall elect such directors. If the holders of any such other shares have elected such directors prior to the happening of the default or event permitting the holders of Class K Shares to elect directors, or prior to a written request for the holding of a special meeting being received by the Secretary of the Corporation as required above, then a new election shall be held with all such other shares and the Class K Shares voting together as a single class for such directors, resulting in the termination of the term of such previously elected directors upon the election of such new directors.

(d) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class K Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect either of the following:

Section 6. 8 7/8% Class K Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares. Of the 750,000 authorized Class K Shares, 350,000 shares are designated as a series entitled “8 7/8% Class K Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares” (hereinafter called “8 7/8% Class K Preferred Shares”). The 87/8% Class K Preferred Shares shall have the express terms set forth in this Division as being applicable to all Class K Preferred Shares as a class and, in addition, the following express terms applicable to all 8 7/8% Class K Preferred Shares as a series of Class K Shares:

(a) The annual dividend rate of the 87/8% Class K Preferred Shares shall be 87/8% of the liquidation preference of $250.00 per share.

103

(b) Dividends on the 8 7/8% Class K Preferred Shares shall be payable, if declared, quarterly on or about the fifteenth day of January, April, July and October. The dividends payable for each full quarterly dividend period on each 8 7/8% Class K Preferred Share shall be $5.546875. Dividends for any period shorter or longer than a full dividend period on the 8 7/8% Class K Preferred Shares, shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The aggregate dividend payable quarterly to each holder of 8 7/8% Class K Preferred Shares shall be rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of one cent with $.00005 being rounded upward. Each dividend shall be payable to the holders of record on such record date, no less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the payment date thereof, as shall be fixed from time to time by the Corporation’s Board of Directors.

(c) Dividends on 8 7/8% Class K Preferred Shares shall be cumulative as follows:

(1) With respect to shares included in the initial issue of 8 7/8% Class K Preferred Shares and shares issued any time thereafter up to and including the record date for the payment of the first dividend on the initial issue of 8 7/8% Class K Preferred Shares, dividends shall be cumulative from the date of the initial issue of 87/8% Class K Preferred Shares; and

(2) With respect to shares issued any time after the aforesaid record date, dividends shall be cumulative from the dividend payment date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, except that if such shares are issued during the period commencing the day after the record date for the payment of a dividend on 8 7/8% Class K Preferred Shares and ending on the payment date of that dividend, dividends with respect to such shares shall be cumulative from that dividend payment date.

(d) The Corporation may, at any time or from time to time on, at its option upon not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days’ written notice, redeem all or any part of the 8 7/8% Class K Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $250.00 per share plus, in each case, an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the redemption date, without interest. The redemption price (other than the portion thereof consisting of accrued and unpaid dividends) is payable solely out of the sale proceeds of other capital shares of the Corporation, which may include any equity securities (including common shares and preferred shares), shares, interests, participation or other ownership interests (however designated) and any rights (other than debt securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities), or options to purchase any of the foregoing.

(e) The amount payable per 8 7/8% Class K Preferred Share in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation shall be $250.00, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of payment.

104

(f) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class K Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect the authorization, creation, increase in the authorized number of or issuance of any shares, or any security convertible into or exchangeable for shares, in any such case ranking prior to such series of Class K Preferred Shares in dividends, distributions or rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

XII. The Noncumulative Preferred Shares. The Noncumulative Preferred Shares shall have the following express terms:

Section 1. Series. The Noncumulative Shares may be issued from time to time in one or more series. All Noncumulative Shares shall be of equal rank and shall be identical, except in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as hereinafter provided, and each share of a series shall be identical with all other shares of such series, except as to the dates on which and the periods for which dividends may be payable. All Noncumulative Shares shall rank on a parity with the Cumulative Shares, and shall be identical to all Cumulative Shares, except (1) in respect of the matters that may be fixed by the Board of Directors as provided in clauses (a) through (i), inclusive, of this Section 1 and (2) only dividends on the Noncumulative Shares are noncumulative as set forth herein. Subject to the provisions of Sections 2 through 5, inclusive, and Item XIII of this Division, which provisions shall apply to all Noncumulative Shares, the Board of Directors hereby is authorized to cause such shares to be issued in one or more series, and with respect to each such series, to determine and fix prior to the issuance thereof (and thereafter, to the extent provided in clause (b) of this Section) the following:

(a) The designation of the series, which may be by distinguishing number, letter or title;

(b) The authorized number of shares of the series, which number the Board of Directors may (except where otherwise provided in the creation of the series) increase or decrease from time to time before or after the issuance thereof (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding);

(c) The dividend rate or rates of the series, including the means by which such rates may be established;

(d) The dates on which and the period or periods for which dividends, if declared, shall be payable, including the means by which such dates and periods may be established;

(e) The redemption rights and price or prices, if any, for shares of the series;

(f) The terms and amount of the sinking fund, if any, for the purchase or redemption of shares of the series;

105

(g) The amounts payable on shares of the series in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation;

(h) Whether the shares of the series shall be convertible into Common Shares or shares of any other class and, if so, the conversion rate or rates or price or prices, any adjustments thereof and all other terms and conditions upon which such conversion may be made; and

(i) Restrictions (in addition to those set forth in Subsection 5(d) or 5(e) of this Item XII) on the issuance of shares of the same series or of any other class or series.

The Board of Directors is authorized to adopt from time to time amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, fixing, with respect to each such series, the matters described in clauses (a) through (i), both inclusive, of this Section and is authorized to take such actions with respect thereto as may be required by law in order to effect such amendments.

Section 2. Dividends.

(a) The holders of Noncumulative Shares of each series, in preference to the holders of Common Shares and of any other class of shares ranking junior to the Noncumulative Shares, shall be entitled to receive out of any funds legally available therefor, if, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, dividends in cash at the rate or rates for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 above and no more, payable on the dates fixed for such series. Such dividends shall accrue, in the case of shares of each particular series, from and after the date or dates fixed with respect to such series; provided, however, that if the Board of Directors fails to declare a dividend payable on a dividend payment date on any Noncumulative Shares, the holders of the Noncumulative Shares shall have no right to receive a dividend in respect of the dividend period ending on such dividend payment date, and the Corporation shall have no obligation to pay the dividend accrued for such period, whether or not dividends on such Noncumulative Shares are declared payable on any future dividend payment date. No dividends shall be paid upon or declared or set apart for any series of the Noncumulative Shares for any dividend period unless at the same time (i) a like proportionate dividend for the then current dividend period, ratably in proportion to the respective annual dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Noncumulative Shares of all series then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividend and (ii) the dividends payable for the dividend periods terminating on the same or any earlier date, ratably in proportion to the respective dividend rates fixed therefor, shall have been paid upon or declared or set apart for all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares and Class K Shares then issued and outstanding and entitled to receive such dividends.

106

(b) So long as any Noncumulative Shares shall be outstanding no dividend, except a dividend payable in Common Shares or other shares ranking junior to the Noncumulative Shares, shall be paid or declared or any distribution be made, except as aforesaid, in respect of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Noncumulative Shares, nor shall any Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Noncumulative Shares be purchased, retired or otherwise acquired by the Corporation, except out of the proceeds of the sale of Common Shares or other shares of the Corporation ranking junior to the Noncumulative Shares received by the Corporation subsequent to the date of first issuance of Noncumulative Shares of any series, unless:

(1) All accrued and unpaid dividends on Cumulative Shares, including the full dividends for all current dividend periods, shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment thereof set apart;

(2) All unpaid dividends on Noncumulative Shares for the then current dividend period shall have been declared and paid or a sum sufficient for payment therefor set apart; and

(3) There shall be no arrearages with respect to the redemption of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares of any series from any sinking fund provided for shares of such series in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item XII.

(c) The foregoing restrictions on the payment of dividends or other distributions on, or on the purchase, redemption retirement or other acquisition of, Common Shares or any other shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Noncumulative Shares shall be inapplicable to (i) any payments in lieu of issuance of fractional shares thereof, whether upon any merger, conversion, stock dividend or otherwise, (ii) the conversion of Cumulative Shares or Noncumulative Shares into Common Shares or (iii) the exercise by the Corporation of its rights pursuant to Item XIV(d) of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized.

(d) If, for any taxable year, the Corporation elects to designate as “capital gain dividends” (as defined in Section 857 of the Code) any portion (the “Capital Gains Amount”) of the dividends paid or made available for the year to holders of all classes of stock (the “Total Dividends”), then, to the extent permissible under the Code and to the extent it does not cause any dividends to fail to qualify for the dividends paid deduction under Section 561 of the Code, the portion of the Capital Gains Amount that shall be allocable to holders of the Noncumulative Shares shall be the amount that the total dividends paid or made available to the holders of the Noncumulative Shares for the year bears to the Total Dividends.

107

Section 3. Redemption.

(a) Subject to the express terms of each series, the Corporation:

(1) May, from time to time at the option of the Board of Directors, redeem all or any part of any redeemable series of Noncumulative Shares at the time outstanding at the applicable redemption price for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item XII; and

(2) Shall, from time to time, make such redemptions of each series of Noncumulative Shares as may be required to fulfill the requirements of any sinking fund provided for shares of such series at the applicable sinking fund redemption price fixed in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Item XII; and shall, in each case, pay all unpaid dividends for the then current dividend period to the redemption date.

(b) (1) Notice of every such redemption shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the holders of record of the Noncumulative Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses then appearing on the books of the Corporation, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such redemption, or such other time prior thereto as the Board of Directors shall fix for any series pursuant to Section 1 of this Item XII prior to the issuance thereof. At any time after notice as provided above has been deposited in the mail, the Corporation may deposit the aggregate redemption price of Noncumulative Shares to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid dividends thereon for the then current dividend period to the redemption date, with any bank or trust company in Cleveland, Ohio, or New York, New York, having capital and surplus of not less than $100,000,000 named in such notice and direct that there be paid to the respective holders of the Noncumulative Shares so to be redeemed amounts equal to the redemption price of the Noncumulative Shares so to be redeemed together with such accrued and unpaid dividends thereon for the then current dividend period, on surrender of the share certificate or certificates held by such holders; and upon the deposit of such notice in the mail and the making of such deposit of money with such bank or trust company, such holders shall cease to be shareholders with respect to such shares; and from and after the time such notice shall have been so deposited and such deposit of money shall have been so made, such holders shall have no rights or claim against the Corporation with respect to such shares, except only the right to receive such money from such bank or trust company without interest or to exercise before the redemption date any unexpired privileges of conversion. In the event less than all of the outstanding Noncumulative Shares are to be redeemed, the Corporation shall select by lot the shares so to be redeemed in such manner as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

(2) If the holders of Noncumulative Shares which have been called for redemption shall not within six years after such deposit claim the amount deposited for the redemption thereof, any such bank or trust company shall, upon demand, pay over to the Corporation such unclaimed amounts and thereupon such bank or trust company and the Corporation shall be relieved of all responsibility in respect thereof and to such holders.

108

(c) Any Noncumulative Shares which are (1) redeemed by the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of this Section, (2) purchased and delivered in satisfaction of any sinking fund requirements provided for shares of such series, (3) converted in accordance with the express terms thereof, or (4) otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall resume the status of authorized but unissued Noncumulative Shares without serial designation.

(d) Except in connection with the exercise of the Corporation’s rights pursuant to Section (d) of Item XIV of this Division A, Section 4(d) of Division B or any similar Section hereafter contained in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, with respect to any other class or series of capital stock hereafter created or authorized, the Corporation may not purchase or redeem (for sinking fund purposes or otherwise) of less than all of the Noncumulative Shares then outstanding except in accordance with a stock purchase offer made to all holders of record of Noncumulative Shares, unless all dividends on all Noncumulative Shares then outstanding for the then current dividend period shall have been declared and paid or funds therefor set apart and all accrued sinking fund obligations applicable thereto shall have been complied with.

Section 4. Liquidation.

(a) (1) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, the holders of Noncumulative Shares of any series shall be entitled to receive in full out of the assets of the Corporation, including its capital, before any amount shall be paid or distributed among the holders of the Common Shares or any other shares ranking junior to the Noncumulative Shares, the amounts fixed with respect to shares of such series in accordance with Section 1 of this Item XII, plus an amount equal to all dividends accrued and unpaid thereon for the then current dividend period to the date of payment of the amount due pursuant to such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation. In the event the net assets of the Corporation legally available therefor are insufficient to permit the payment upon all outstanding Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares of the full preferential amount to which they are respectively entitled, then such net assets shall be distributed ratably upon all outstanding Noncumulative Shares in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each such share is entitled.

(2) After payment to the holders of Noncumulative Shares of the full preferential amounts as aforesaid, the holders of Noncumulative Shares, as such, shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.

109

(b) The merger or consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other Corporation, the merger of any other Corporation into it, or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation shall not be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up for the purposes of this Section.

Section 5. Voting.

(a) The holders of Noncumulative Shares shall have no voting rights, except as provided in this Section or required by law.

(b) (1) If, and so often as, the Corporation shall not have fully paid, or shall not have declared and set aside a sum sufficient for the payment of, dividends on any series of Noncumulative Shares at the time outstanding, for a number of dividend payment periods, whether consecutive or not, which in the aggregate contain at least 540 days, the holders of such Noncumulative Shares, voting separately as a class, together with all Cumulative Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, shall be entitled to elect, as herein provided, two members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation; provided, however, that the holders of such Noncumulative Shares shall not exercise such special class voting rights except at meetings of such shareholders for the election of directors at which the holders of not less than 50% of such Noncumulative Shares are present in person or by proxy; and provided further, that the special class voting rights provided for in this paragraph when the same shall have become vested shall remain so vested until the Corporation shall have fully paid, or shall have set aside a sum sufficient for the payment of, dividends on such Noncumulative Shares then outstanding for a number of consecutive dividend payment periods which in the aggregate contain at least 360 days, whereupon the holders of such Noncumulative Shares shall be divested of their special class voting rights in respect of subsequent elections of directors, subject to the revesting of such special class voting rights in the event above specified in this paragraph.

(2) In the event of default entitling holders of Noncumulative Shares to elect two directors as specified in paragraph (1) of this Subsection, a special meeting of such holders for the purpose of electing such directors shall be called by the Secretary of the Corporation upon written request of, or may be called by, the holders of record of at least 10% of the Noncumulative Shares upon which such default in the payment of dividends exists and notice thereof shall be given in the same manner as that required for the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to call such special meeting if the annual meeting of shareholders shall be called to be held within 90 days after the date of receipt of the foregoing written request from the holders of Noncumulative Shares. At any meeting at which such holders of Noncumulative Shares shall be entitled to elect directors, holders of 50% of such Noncumulative Shares, present in person or by proxy, shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum, and the vote of the holders of a majority of such shares so present at any such

110

meeting at which there shall be such a quorum shall be sufficient to elect the members of the Board of Directors which such holders of Noncumulative Shares are entitled to elect as herein provided. Notwithstanding any provision of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or the Code of Regulations of the Corporation or any action taken by the holders of any class of shares fixing the number of directors of the Corporation, the two directors who may be elected by such holders of Noncumulative Shares pursuant to this Subsection shall serve in addition to any other directors then in office or proposed to be elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Nothing in this Subsection shall prevent any change otherwise permitted in the total number of or classifications of directors of the Corporation nor require the resignation of any director elected otherwise than pursuant to this Subsection. Notwithstanding any classification of the other directors of the Corporation, the two directors elected by such holders of Noncumulative Shares shall be elected annually for terms expiring at the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders.

(3) Upon any divesting of the special class voting rights of the holders of the Noncumulative Shares in respect of elections of directors as provided in this Subsection, the terms of office of all directors then in office elected by such holders shall terminate immediately thereupon. If the office of any director elected by such holders voting as a class becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, removal from office or otherwise, the remaining director elected by such holders voting as a class may elect a successor who shall hold office for the unexpired term in respect of which such vacancy occurred.

(c) If at any time when the holders of Noncumulative Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section the holders of any Cumulative Shares are entitled to elect directors pursuant hereto by reason of any default in the payment of dividends thereon, then the voting rights of the Cumulative Shares and Noncumulative Shares then entitled to vote shall be combined (with class of shares having a number of votes proportional to the aggregate liquidation preference of its outstanding shares). In such case, the holders of Noncumulative Shares and of all such other shares then entitled so to vote, voting as a class, shall elect such directors. If the holders of any such other shares have elected such directors prior to the happening of the default or event permitting the holders of Noncumulative Shares to elect directors, or prior to a written request for the holding of a special meeting being received by the Secretary of the Corporation as required above, then a new election shall be held with all such other shares and the Noncumulative Shares voting together as a single class for such directors, resulting in the termination of the term of such previously elected directors upon the election of such new directors.

(d) The affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Noncumulative Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary to effect either of the following:

111

(1) Any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Noncumulative Shares which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Noncumulative Shares or of any shares ranking on a parity with or junior to the Noncumulative Shares nor the amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of Noncumulative Shares; or

(2) The authorization, creation or increase in the authorized number of any shares, or any security convertible into shares, in either case ranking prior to such Noncumulative Shares.

(e) In the event, and only to the extent, that (1) Noncumulative Shares are issued in more than one series and (2) Ohio law permits the holders of a series of a class of capital stock to vote separately as a class, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of each series of the Noncumulative Shares at the time outstanding, voting separately as a class, given in person or by proxy either in writing or at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such matters, shall be required for any amendment, alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of any of the provisions of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, or of the Code of Regulations of the Corporation which affects adversely and materially the preferences or voting or other rights of the holders of such series which are set forth in these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended; provided, however, neither the amendment of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, so as to authorize, create or change the authorized or outstanding number of Noncumulative Shares or of any shares remaining on a parity with or junior to the Noncumulative Shares nor the amendment of the provisions of the Code of Regulations so as to change the number or classification of directors of the Corporation shall be deemed to affect adversely and materially preferences or voting or other rights of the holder of such series.

Transfer of the Preferred Shares or other event which would cause the Corporation to be “closely held” within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code or would otherwise result in the Corporation failing to qualify as a REIT; and the intended transferee or owner or Constructive or Beneficial Owner shall acquire or retain no rights in such Preferred Shares.

(v) For purposes of construing the foregoing provisions, any attempt to transfer Preferred Shares in violation of the Ownership Limit applicable to the series of the class of such Preferred Shares (as such Ownership Limit may be modified by the Board of Directors pursuant to Section (h) of Item XIV) shall be construed as causing such Preferred Shares to be transferred by operation of law to the Corporation as trustee of a trust for the exclusive benefit of the person or persons to whom such Preferred Shares can ultimately be transferred without violating the Ownership Limit and any Excess Preferred Shares while held in such trust shall not have any voting rights, shall not be considered for purposes of any shareholder vote or for determining a quorum for such a vote, and shall not be entitled to any dividends or other distributions.

(c) Remedies for Breach. If the Board of Directors or its designees shall at any time determine in good faith that a Transfer has taken place in violation of Section (b) of this Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH or that a Person intends to acquire or has attempted to acquire beneficial ownership (determined without reference to any rules of attribution), Beneficial Ownership or Constructive Ownership of any Preferred Shares of the Corporation in violation of Section (b) of this Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH, or that any such Transfer, intended or attempted acquisition or acquisition would jeopardize the status of the Corporation as a REIT under the Code, the Board of Directors or its designees shall take such actions as it deems advisable to refuse to give effect or to prevent such Transfer, including, but not limited to, refusing to give effect to such Transfer on the books of the Corporation or instituting proceedings to enjoin such Transfer and, in addition, exercising its rights under Section (d) of this Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH.

(d) Purchase Right in Excess Preferred Shares. Beginning on the date of the occurrence of a Transfer which, if consummated, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, could result in Excess Preferred Shares, the Excess Preferred Shares, subject to such transfer shall be deemed to have been offered for sale to the Corporation, or its designee, at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the price per share in the transaction that created such Excess Preferred Shares (or, in the case of a devise or gift, the Market Price at the time of such devise or gift) and (ii) the Market Price on the date the Corporation, or its designee, accepts such offer. The Corporation shall have the

116

right to accept such offer for a period of 90 days after the later of (i) the date of such Transfer and (ii) if the Corporation does not receive a notice of such Transfer pursuant to Section (e) of this Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH, the date the Board of Directors determines in good faith that such Transfer has occurred. Prompt payment of the purchase price shall be made in such reasonable manner as may be determined by the Corporation. From and after the date fixed for purchase by the Corporation, and so long as payment of the purchase price for the Excess Preferred Shares to be so purchased shall have been made or duly provided for, the holder of any Excess Preferred Shares so called for purchase shall cease to be entitled to dividends, distributions, voting rights and other benefits with respect to such Excess Preferred Shares, excepting only the right to payment of the purchase price fixed as aforesaid. Any dividend or distribution paid to a proposed transferee of Excess Preferred Shares prior to the discovery by the Corporation that the Excess Preferred Shares have been transferred in violation of Section (b) of this Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH shall be repaid to the Corporation upon demand. If the foregoing provisions are determined to be void or invalid by virtue of any legal decision, statute, rule or regulation, then the intended transferee of such Excess Preferred Shares shall be deemed, at the option of the Corporation, to have acted as agent on behalf of the Corporation in acquiring such Excess Preferred Shares and to hold such Excess Preferred Shares on behalf of the Corporation.

(e) Notice of Restricted Transfer. Any Person who acquires or attempts to acquire Preferred Shares or other securities in violation of subparagraph (b) of this Item XIV, or any Person who owns or will own Excess Preferred Shares as a result of an event under subparagraph (b) of this Item XIV, shall immediately give written notice to the Corporation of such event and shall provide to the Corporation such other information as the Corporation may request in order to determine the effect, if any, of such Transfer or attempted Transfer or other event on the Corporation’s status as a REIT.

(f) Owners Required to Provide Information. From and after the date of the Initial Public Offering:

(i) every Beneficial Owner of more than 5.0% (or such other percentage, between 0.5% and 5.0%, as provided in the regulations promulgated pursuant to the Code) of the outstanding Preferred Shares of the Corporation shall, within 30 days after January 1 of each year, give written notice to the Corporation stating the name and address of such Beneficial Owner, the number of shares Beneficially Owned, and description of how such shares are held. Each such Beneficial Owner shall provide to the Corporation such additional information as the Corporation may request in order to determine the effect, if any, of such Beneficial Ownership on the Corporation’s status as a REIT.

117

(ii) each Person who is a Beneficial Owner or Constructive Owner of Preferred Shares and each Person (including the shareholder of record) who is holding Preferred Shares for a Beneficial Owner or Constructive Owner shall provide to the Corporation such information that the Corporation may request, in good faith, in order to determine the Corporation’s status as a REIT.

(g) Remedies Not Limited. Nothing contained in this Division A of this Article FOURTH shall limit the authority of the Board of Directors to take such other action as it deems necessary or advisable to protect the Corporation and the interests of its shareholders by preservation of the Corporation’s status as a REIT.

(h) Ambiguity. In the case of an ambiguity in the application of any of the provisions of this Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH, including any definition contained in Section (a) of this Item XIV, the Board of Directors shall have the power to determine the application of the provisions of this Item XIV with respect to any situation based on the facts known to it.

(1) Exceptions.

(i) Subject to Section (b)(iv) of this Item XIV of this Division A, the Board of Directors may exempt a Person from the Ownership Limit applicable to a series of a class of Preferred Shares if such Person is not an individual (other than pension plans described in Section 856(h)(3)) for purposes of Section 542(a)(2) of the Code if the Board of Directors obtains such representations and undertakings from such Person as are reasonably necessary to ascertain that no individual’s Beneficial Ownership of such Preferred Shares will violate the Ownership Limit, and agrees that any violation or attempted violation will result in such Preferred Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit being subject to repurchase by the Corporation as set forth in Section (d) of this Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH.

(ii) The Board of Directors may exempt a Person from the limitation on such Person Constructively Owning Preferred Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit applicable to a series of a class of such Preferred Shares if such Person does not own and represents that it will not own, directly or constructively (by virtue of the application of Section 318 of the Code, as modified by Section 856(d)(5) of the Code), more than a 9.8% interest (as set forth in Section 856(d)(2)(B)) in a tenant of any real property owned or leased by the Corporation, if the Board of Directors obtains such representations and undertakings from such Person as are reasonably necessary to ascertain this fact and agrees that any

118

violation or attempted violation will result in such Preferred Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit being deemed to be Excess Preferred Shares and subject to repurchase by the Corporation as set forth in Section (d) of this Item XIV of this Division A of this Article FOURTH.

XV. Legend. Each certificate for Preferred Shares shall bear the following legend:

“The Preferred Shares represented by this certificate are subject to restrictions on transfer for the purpose of the corporation’s maintenance of its status as a Real Estate Investment Trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Subject to certain provisions of the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, no Person may Beneficially Own or Constructively Own shares of any series of any class of Preferred Shares in excess of 9.8% of the outstanding Preferred Shares of such series. Any Person who attempts to Beneficially Own or Constructively Own shares of any series of any class of Preferred Shares in excess of the above limitations must immediately notify the Corporation. All capitalized terms in this legend have the meanings defined in the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, a copy of which, including the restrictions on transfer, will be sent without charge to each shareholder who so requests. If the restrictions on transfer are violated, certain of the Preferred Shares represented hereby may be subject to repurchase by the Corporation on the terms and conditions set forth in the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation.

The Voting Preferred Shares shall rank on a parity with the Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares and shall be identical to all Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares, Class D Shares, Class E Shares, Class F Shares, Class G Shares, Class H Shares, Class I Shares, Class J Shares, Class K Shares and Noncumulative Shares except as set forth in the provisions of Sections 2 through 10, both inclusive, which provisions shall apply to all of the Voting Preferred Shares.

Section 2. Definitions. For purposes of the Voting Preferred Shares, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated:

“Board of Directors” shall mean the Board of Directors of the Corporation or any committee authorized by such Board of Directors to perform any of its responsibilities with respect to the Voting Preferred Shares; provided that, for purposes of paragraph (a) of Section 8, the term “Board of Directors” shall not include any such committee.

“Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which state or federally chartered banking institutions in New York, New York are not required to be open.

“Code” shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time.

119

“Dividend Payment Date” shall mean March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year; provided, that if any Dividend Payment Date falls on any day other than a Business Day, the dividend payment payable on such Dividend Payment Date shall be paid on the Business Day immediately following such Dividend Payment Date and no interest shall accrue on such dividend from such Dividend Payment Date to the date such dividend is paid.

“Dividend Periods” shall mean each quarterly dividend period commencing on and including March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year and ending on and including the day preceding the first day of the next succeeding Dividend Period, other than the Dividend Period during which any Voting Preferred Shares shall be redeemed pursuant to Section 5, which shall end on and include the Redemption Date with respect to the Voting Preferred Shares being redeemed.

“Liquidation Preference” shall have the meaning set forth in paragraph (a) of Section 4.

“REIT” shall mean a Real Estate Investment Trust under Section 856 of the Code.

“set apart for payment” shall be deemed to include, without any action other than the following, the recording by the Corporation in its accounting ledgers of any accounting or bookkeeping entry which indicates, pursuant to a declaration of dividends or other distribution by the Board of Directors, the allocation of funds to be so paid on any series or class of capital stock of the Corporation; provided, however, that if any funds for any class or series of shares ranking junior to the Voting Preferred Shares or any class or series of shares ranking on a parity with the Voting Preferred Shares are placed in a separate account of the Corporation or delivered to a disbursing, paying or other similar agent, then “set apart for payment” with respect to the Voting Preferred Shares shall mean placing such funds in a separate account or delivering such funds to a disbursing, paying or other similar agent.

Section 3. Dividends. (a) The holders of Voting Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for that purpose, cumulative dividends payable in cash in an amount per Voting Preferred Share equal to $2.3438 per annum (equivalent to 9 3/8% of the per share Liquidation Preference per annum). Such dividends shall be cumulative from the first day of the Dividend Period in which the Closing Date (as defined in that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of October 4, 2002 by and among the Corporation, JDN Realty Corporation and DDR Transitory Sub, Inc.) shall occur, whether or not in any Dividend Period or Periods such dividends shall be declared or there shall be funds of the Corporation legally available for the payment of such dividends, and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Dividend Payment Date. Each such dividend shall be payable in arrears to the holders of record of the Voting Preferred Shares, as they appear on the stock records of the Corporation at the close of business on the fifteenth day of the calendar month in which the applicable Dividend Payment Date falls on or such other

120

date designated by the Board of Directors for the payment of dividends that is not more than 45 nor less than 10 days prior to such Dividend Payment Date, as the case may be, immediately preceding such Dividend Payment Date. No dividends on the Voting Preferred Shares shall be declared by the Board of Directors or be paid or set apart for payment by the Corporation at such time as any agreement of the Corporation, including any agreement relating to the Corporation’s indebtedness, prohibits such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment or provides that such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment would constitute a breach thereof or a default thereunder, or if such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment shall be restricted or prohibited by law. Accumulated, accrued and unpaid dividends for any past Dividend Periods may be declared and paid at any time, without reference to any regular Dividend Payment Date, to holders of record on such date, which date shall not precede by more than 45 days the payment date thereof, as may be fixed by the Board of Directors.

(b) Any dividend payable on the Voting Preferred Shares for any partial dividend period shall be computed ratably on the basis of twelve 30-day months and a 360-day year. Holders of Voting Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to any dividends, whether payable in cash, property or stock, in excess of full cumulative dividends, as herein provided, on the Voting Preferred Shares. No interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, shall be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on the Voting Preferred Shares that may be in arrears. Any dividend payment made on the Voting Preferred Shares shall first be credited against the earliest accrued but unpaid dividend due with respect to such shares which remains payable.

(c) If, for any taxable year, the Corporation elects to designate as “capital gain dividends” (as defined in Section 857 of the Code) any portion (the “Capital Gains Amount”) of the total distributions (as determined for federal income tax purposes) paid or made available for the year to holders of all classes of capital stock (the “Total Dividends”), then the portion of the Capital Gains Amount that shall be allocable to holders of Voting Preferred Shares shall be in the same proportion that the Total Dividends paid or made available to the holders of Voting Preferred Shares for the year bears to the Total Dividends. If, for any taxable year, the Corporation elects, as provided in Section 857(b)(3)(D) of the Code, to designate as “undistributed capital gains” any portion of the Corporation’s total net capital gains for the taxable year, then such undistributed capital gains shall be allocated between the holders of the Voting Preferred Shares and the holders of other classes or series of capital stock of the Corporation in a manner that is consistent with such allocations being considered other than a “preferential dividend” within the meaning of Section 562(c) of the Code.

(d) So long as any of the Voting Preferred Shares are outstanding, except as described in the immediately following sentence, no dividends shall be declared or paid or set apart for payment by the Corporation and no other distribution of cash or other property shall be declared or made, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation with respect to any shares ranking on a parity unless, in each case, dividends equal to the full amount of accumulated, accrued and unpaid dividends on all outstanding Voting Preferred Shares have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof has been or contemporaneously is set apart for payment of such

121

dividends on the Voting Preferred Shares for all Dividend Periods ending on or prior to the date such dividend or distribution is declared, paid, set apart for payment or made, as the case may be, with respect to such shares ranking on a parity. When dividends are not paid in full or a sum sufficient for such payment is not set apart, as aforesaid, all dividends declared upon the Voting Preferred Shares and all dividends declared upon any shares ranking on a parity shall be declared ratably in proportion to the respective amounts of dividends accumulated, accrued and unpaid on the Voting Preferred Shares and accumulated, accrued and unpaid on such shares ranking on a parity.

(e) So long as any of the Voting Preferred Shares are outstanding, no dividends (other than dividends or distributions paid in shares, or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares, ranking junior to the Voting Preferred Shares) shall be declared or paid or set apart for payment by the Corporation and no other distribution of cash or other property shall be declared or made, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation with respect to any shares ranking junior to the Voting Preferred Shares, nor shall any shares ranking junior to the Voting Preferred Shares be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired (other than a redemption, purchase or other acquisition of Common Shares made for purposes of an employee incentive, benefit or stock purchase plan of the Corporation or any subsidiary) for any consideration (or any monies be paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any shares of any such stock), directly or indirectly, by the Corporation (except by conversion into or exchange for shares, or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares, ranking junior to the Voting Preferred Shares), nor shall any other cash or other property otherwise be paid or distributed to or for the benefit of any holder of shares ranking junior to the Voting Preferred Shares in respect thereof, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation unless, in each case, dividends equal to the full amount of all accumulated, accrued and unpaid dividends on all outstanding Voting Preferred Shares have been declared and paid, or such dividends have been declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof has been set apart for such payment, on all outstanding Voting Preferred Shares for all Dividend Periods ending on or prior to the date such dividend or distribution is declared, paid, set apart for payment or made with respect to such shares ranking junior to the Voting Preferred Shares, or the date such shares ranking junior to the Voting Preferred Shares are redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired or monies paid to or made available for any sinking fund for such redemption, or the date any such cash or other property is paid or distributed to or for the benefit of any holders of shares ranking junior to the Voting Preferred Shares in respect thereof, as the case may be.

(f) In determining the extent to which a distribution with respect to the Voting Preferred Shares constitutes a dividend for tax purposes, the earnings and profits of the Corporation will be allocated, on a pro rata basis, in accordance with the ranking of the class of capital stock or series of capital stock, constituting a class within the meaning of Code Section 562(c), of the Corporation, as described in Section 7.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3, the Corporation shall not be prohibited from (i) declaring or paying or setting apart for payment any dividend or distribution on any shares ranking junior to or on a parity with the Voting Preferred Shares or (ii) redeeming, purchasing or otherwise acquiring any shares ranking junior to or on a parity with the Voting Preferred Shares, in each case, if such declaration, payment, redemption, purchase or other acquisition is necessary in order to assist in maintaining the continued qualification of the Corporation as a REIT under Section 856 of the Code.

122

Section 4. Liquidation Preference. (a) In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any payment or distribution by the Corporation (whether of capital, surplus or otherwise) shall be made to or set apart for the holders of shares ranking junior to the Voting Preferred Shares, the holders of Voting Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive Twenty-Five Dollars ($25.00) per Voting Preferred Share (the “Liquidation Preference”), plus an amount equal to all dividends accumulated, accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of final distribution to such holders; but such holders shall not be entitled to any further payment. Until the holders of the Voting Preferred Shares have been paid the Liquidation Preference in full, plus an amount equal to all dividends accumulated, accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of final distribution to such holders, no payment will be made to any holder of shares ranking junior to the Voting Preferred Shares upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation. If, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the assets of the Corporation, or proceeds thereof, distributable among the holders of Voting Preferred Shares shall be insufficient to pay in full the preferential amount aforesaid and liquidating payments on any other shares ranking on a parity with the Voting Preferred Shares, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be distributed among the holders of Voting Preferred Shares and any such other shares ranking on a parity with the Voting Preferred Shares ratably in the same proportion as the respective amounts that would be payable on such Voting Preferred Shares and any such other shares ranking on a parity with the Voting Preferred Shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full. For the purposes of this Section 4, (i) a consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into one or more other entities, (ii) a sale, lease, transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s assets, or (iii) a statutory share exchange shall not be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, of the Corporation.

(b) Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, after payment shall have been made in full to the holders of Voting Preferred Shares and any shares ranking on a parity with the Voting Preferred Shares, as provided in this Section 4, any other shares ranking junior to the Voting Preferred Shares shall, subject to the respective terms thereof, be entitled to receive any and all assets remaining to be paid or distributed, and the holders of the Voting Preferred Shares and any shares ranking on a parity with the Voting Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to share therein.

Section 5. Redemption at the Option of the Corporation. (a) Shares of Voting Preferred Shares shall not be redeemable by the Corporation prior to September 15, 2003. On and after September 15, 2003, the Corporation, at its option, may redeem Voting Preferred Shares, in whole or from time to time in part, at a redemption price payable in cash equal to $25.00 per share, plus all accumulated, accrued and unpaid dividends to the date fixed for redemption (the “Redemption Date”); provided, however, that in the event of a redemption of Voting Preferred Shares, if the Redemption Date occurs after a

123

dividend record date and on or prior to the related Dividend Payment Date, the dividend payable on such Dividend Payment Date in respect of such shares called for redemption shall be payable on such Dividend Payment Date to the holders of record at the close of business on such dividend record date, and shall not be payable as part of the redemption price for such shares. In connection with any redemption pursuant to this Section 5(a), the redemption price of the Voting Preferred Shares (other than any portion thereof consisting of accumulated, accrued and unpaid dividends) shall be payable solely with the proceeds from the sale by the Corporation of other capital shares of the Corporation (whether or not such sale occurs concurrently with such redemption). For purposes of the preceding sentence, “capital shares” means any common shares, preferred shares, depositary shares, participations or other ownership interests (however designated) and any rights (other than debt securities convertible into or exchangeable at the option of the holder for equity securities (unless and to the extent such debt securities are subsequently converted into capital shares)) or options to purchase any of the foregoing of or in the Corporation.

(b) The Redemption Date shall be selected by the Corporation, shall be specified in the notice of redemption and shall be not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days after the date notice of redemption is sent by the Corporation.

(c) If full cumulative dividends on all outstanding Voting Preferred Shares have not been declared and paid, or declared and set apart for payment, no Voting Preferred Shares may be redeemed unless all outstanding Voting Preferred Shares are simultaneously redeemed, and neither the Corporation nor any affiliate of the Corporation may purchase or acquire Voting Preferred Shares other than pursuant to a purchase or exchange offer made on the same terms to all holders of Voting Preferred Shares.

(d) If the Corporation shall redeem Voting Preferred Shares pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 5, notice of such redemption shall be given to each holder of record of the shares to be redeemed. Such notice shall be provided by first class mail, postage prepaid, at such holder’s address as the same appears on the stock records of the Corporation. Neither the failure to mail any notice required by this paragraph (d), nor any defect therein or in the mailing thereof to any particular holder, shall affect the sufficiency of the notice or the validity of the proceedings for redemption with respect to the other holders. Any notice which was mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given on the date mailed whether or not the holder receives the notice. Each such notice shall state, as appropriate: (1) the Redemption Date; (2) the number of Voting Preferred Shares to be redeemed and, if fewer than all such shares held by such holder are to be redeemed, the number of such shares to be redeemed from such holder; (3) the place or places at which certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for cash; and (4) the redemption price payable on such Redemption Date, including, without limitation, a statement as to whether or not accumulated, accrued and unpaid dividends will be (x) payable as part of the redemption price, or (y) payable on the next Dividend Payment Date to the record holder at the close of business on the relevant record date as described in the next succeeding sentence.

124

Notice having been mailed as aforesaid, from and after the Redemption Date (unless the Corporation shall fail to make available the amount of cash necessary to effect such redemption), (i) dividends on the Voting Preferred Shares so called for redemption shall cease to accumulate or accrue on the Voting Preferred Shares called for redemption, (ii) said shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding, and (iii) all rights of the holders thereof as holders of Voting Preferred Shares of the Corporation shall cease except the rights to receive the cash payable upon such redemption, without interest thereon, upon surrender and endorsement of their certificates if so required; provided, however, that if the Redemption Date for any Voting Preferred Shares occurs after any dividend record date and on or prior to the related Dividend Payment Date, the full dividend payable on such Dividend Payment Date in respect of such Voting Preferred Shares called for redemption shall be payable on such Dividend Payment Date to the holders of record of such shares at the close of business on the corresponding dividend record date notwithstanding the prior redemption of such shares. The Corporation’s obligation to make available the redemption price in accordance with the preceding sentence shall be deemed fulfilled if, on or before the applicable Redemption Date, the Corporation shall irrevocably deposit in trust with a bank or trust company (which may not be an affiliate of the Corporation) that has, or is an affiliate of a bank or trust company that has, a capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, such amount of cash as is necessary for such redemption plus, if such Redemption Date occurs after any dividend record date and on or prior to the related Dividend Payment Date, such amount of cash as is necessary to pay the dividend payable on such Dividend Payment Date in respect of such Voting Preferred Shares called for redemption, with irrevocable instructions that such cash be applied to the redemption of the Voting Preferred Shares so called for redemption and, if applicable, the payment of such dividend. No interest shall accrue for the benefit of the holders of Voting Preferred Shares to be redeemed on any cash so set aside by the Corporation. Subject to applicable escheat laws, any such cash unclaimed at the end of two years from the Redemption Date shall revert to the general funds of the Corporation, after which reversion the holders of Voting Preferred Shares so called for redemption shall look only to the general funds of the Corporation for the payment of such cash.

As promptly as practicable after the surrender in accordance with such notice of the certificates for any such Voting Preferred Shares to be so redeemed (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Corporation shall so require and the notice shall so state), such certificates shall be exchanged for cash (without interest thereon) for which such shares have been redeemed in accordance with such notice. If fewer than all the outstanding Voting Preferred Shares are to be redeemed, shares to be redeemed shall be selected by the Corporation from outstanding Voting Preferred Shares not previously called for redemption by lot or, with respect to the number of Voting Preferred Shares held of record by each holder of such shares, pro rata (as nearly as may be) or by any other method as may be determined by the Board of Directors in its discretion to be equitable. If fewer than all the shares of Voting Preferred Shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, then a new certificate representing the unredeemed shares shall be issued without cost to the holders thereof.

125

Section 6. Status of Reacquired Shares. All Voting Preferred Shares which shall have been issued and reacquired in any manner by the Corporation shall be deemed retired.

Section 7. Ranking. The Voting Preferred Shares rank prior to, on a parity with, or junior to other shares of capital stock of the Corporation in accordance with Item XIII of this Division A.

Section 8. Voting. (a) If and whenever six quarterly dividends (whether or not consecutive) payable on the Voting Preferred Shares or any series or class of shares ranking on a parity with the Voting Preferred Shares shall be in arrears (which shall, with respect to any such quarterly dividend, mean that any such dividend has not been paid in full), the number of directors then constituting the Board of Directors shall be increased by two (if not already increased by reason of similar types of provisions with respect to shares ranking on a parity with the Voting Preferred Shares of any other class or series which is entitled to similar voting rights (the “Arrearage Voting Preferred Shares”)) and the holders of Voting Preferred Shares, together with the holders of shares of all other Arrearage Voting Preferred Shares then entitled to exercise similar voting rights, voting as a single class regardless of class or series, shall be entitled to elect the two additional directors to serve on the Board of Directors at any annual meeting of shareholders or special meeting held in place thereof, or at a special meeting of the holders of the Voting Preferred Shares and the Arrearage Voting Preferred Shares called as hereinafter provided. Whenever all arrearages in dividends on the Voting Preferred Shares and the Arrearage Voting Preferred Shares then outstanding shall have been paid and dividends thereon for the current quarterly dividend period shall have been declared and paid, or declared and set apart for payment, then the right of the holders of the Voting Preferred Shares and the Arrearage Voting Preferred Shares to elect such additional two directors shall cease (but subject always to the same provision for the vesting of such voting rights in the case of any similar future arrearages), and the terms of office of all persons elected as directors by the holders of the Voting Preferred Shares and the Arrearage Voting Preferred Shares shall forthwith terminate and the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall be reduced accordingly. At any time after such voting power shall have been so vested in the holders of Voting Preferred Shares and the Arrearage Voting Preferred Shares, if applicable, the Secretary of the Corporation may, and upon the written request of any holder of at least ten percent (10%) of Voting Preferred Shares (addressed to the Secretary at the principal office of the Corporation) shall, call a special meeting of the holders of the Voting Preferred Shares and of the Arrearage Voting Preferred Shares for the election of the two directors to be elected by them as herein provided, such call to be made by notice similar to that provided in the Code of Regulations of the Corporation for a special meeting of the shareholders or as required by law. If any such special meeting required to be called as above provided shall not be called by the Secretary within 20 days after receipt of any such request, then any holder of Voting Preferred Shares may call such meeting, upon the notice above provided, and for that purpose shall have access to the stock books of the Corporation. The directors elected at any such special meeting shall hold office until the next annual meeting of the shareholders or special meeting held in lieu thereof if such office shall not have previously terminated as above provided. If any vacancy shall occur among the directors

126

elected by the holders of the Voting Preferred Shares and the Arrearage Voting Preferred Shares, a successor shall be elected by the Board of Directors, upon the nomination of the then-remaining director elected by the holders of the Voting Preferred Shares and the Arrearage Voting Preferred Shares or the successor of such remaining director, to serve until the next annual meeting of the shareholders or special meeting held in place thereof if such office shall not have previously terminated as provided above.

If the Board of Directors or its designees shall at any time determine in good faith that a Transfer has taken place in violation of Section 4(b) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH or that a Person intends to acquire or has attempted to acquire beneficial ownership (determined without reference to any rules of attribution), Beneficial Ownership or Constructive Ownership of any Common Shares of the Corporation in violation of Section 4(b) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH, or that any such Transfer, intended or attempted acquisition or acquisition would jeopardize the status of the Corporation as a REIT under the Code, the Board of Directors or its designees shall take such actions as it deems advisable to refuse to give effect or to prevent such Transfer, including, but not limited to, refusing to give effect to such Transfer on the books of the Corporation or instituting proceedings to enjoin such Transfer and, in addition, exercising its rights under Section 4(d) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH.

If the foregoing provisions are determined to be void or invalid by virtue of any legal decision, statute, rule or regulation, then the intended transferee of such Excess Shares shall be deemed, at the option of the Corporation, to have acted as agent on behalf of the Corporation in acquiring such Excess Shares and to hold such Excess Shares on behalf of the Corporation.

The transferor Existing Holder shall give the Board of Directors of the Corporation prior written notice of any such Transfer.

(ii) Any grant of a stock option pursuant to a stock option plan approved by the shareholders of the Corporation shall increase the Existing Holder Limit for the affected Existing Holder to the maximum extent possible under Section 4(k) to permit the Beneficial Ownership of the Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of such stock option.

(ii) Prior to the modification of any Existing Holder Limit or Ownership Limit pursuant to Section 4(i) or Section 4(j) of this Division B of this Article FOURTH, the Board of Directors of the Corporation may require such opinions of counsel, affidavits, undertakings or agreements as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to determine or ensure the Corporation’s status as a REIT.
