Related to Issuance and Registration of Preferred Warrants

• Issuance and Registration of Warrants The Issuer hereby agrees to issue and deliver to Creditanstalt or, at the option of Creditanstalt, an Affiliate thereof, new Warrant Certificates evidencing the outstanding Series D Warrants and Series E Warrants as hereby amended. Upon receipt of such new Warrant Certificates, Creditanstalt shall deliver to the Issuer for cancellation the old Warrant Certificates for Series D Warrants. On the date hereof, the Issuer shall register the new Warrant Certificates in the Warrant Register in the name of Creditanstalt or an Affiliate thereof as the case may be.

• Registration of Warrant Shares (a) If (but without any obligation to do so) the Company proposes to register (including for this purpose a registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than the Holders) any of its stock or other securities under the Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than a registration statement relating either to the sale of securities to employees of the Company pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar plan or a SEC Rule 145 transaction), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such proposed registration. Upon the written request of each Holder given within twenty (20) days after mailing of such notice by the Company in accordance with Section 18(d) hereof, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 8(c), endeavor to cause to be registered under the Act all of the Warrant Shares that each such Holder has requested to be registered. (b) Whenever required under this Section 8(a) to effect the registration of any Warrant Shares, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible use reasonable efforts to (i) file a registration statement (the "Registration Statement"), registering for resale the Warrant Shares and (ii) cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable. The Company promptly shall provide each Holder with such copies of the final prospectus contained in the Registration Statement after it becomes effective as they shall reasonably request. In addition, the Company shall (a) use reasonable efforts to keep the Registration Statement effective for a period ending on the earlier of (x) 120 days from its effective date or (y) when all such Warrant Shares can be sold without limitation or delay under Rule 144 and (b) file all reports and forms required to be filed by it under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Reports") on a timely basis so long as each Holder owns any Warrant Shares and shall provide each Holder copies thereof when filed. (c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to postpone the filing of the Registration Statement otherwise required to be prepared and filed by it in accordance with subparagraph (b) or, in the event the Registration Statement has been declared effective, without suspending such effectiveness, instruct the Holder promptly in writing (or any subsequent holders thereof) not to sell or distribute any Warrant Shares (a "Delay") as long as the reason for non-disclosure continues, if the Company would be required to disclose in the Registration Statement the existence of any fact relating to a material business situation, transaction or negotiation, or would be required to disclose information that the Company has not otherwise made public, in each case, that the Company reasonably determines is in the best interests of the Company not to disclose at such time, and unless and until each Holder furnishes to the Company in writing information that may be required to prepare the disclosure required by Items 507 and 508 of Regulation S-B promulgated under the Act, with respect to such Holder's Warrant Shares being sold under the Registration Statement provided that, with respect to Delays because of information related to the Company (rather than disclosure required to be provided by the holders), the Company shall only be entitled to a maximum of three (3) Delays, each Delay not to exceed a period of thirty (30) days; and further provided, that no period of Delay shall commence within 60 days of a previous Delay. (d) Each Holder shall (i) reasonably cooperate with the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement and execute and deliver any agreements or instruments reasonably requested by the Company or its counsel in connection therewith and (ii) upon discovery that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the Registration Statement (or any prospectus included therein), as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made (as determined by the Company or its counsel in its sole discretion), forthwith discontinue its disposition of Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement, until such time as such Holder (or any holders) have received a supplemented or amended prospectus from the Company relating thereto. The Company agrees to use its best efforts to prepare any necessary amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable after the same becomes necessary and to provide to each Holder quantities of such amendments or supplements reasonably sufficient for the distribution thereof. (e) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and its respective officers, directors, employees, members, agents, affiliates and control persons (each of the foregoing, a "Holder Indemnitee") who is or may be a party or is or may be threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative by reason of or arising from any actual or alleged misrepresentation or misstatement of facts or omission to represent or state any fact or omission to state a fact necessary to make the facts stated under the circumstances not materially misleading, in the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto or to the prospectus incorporated therein from and against any claim, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including attorney's fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) ("Loss") actually and reasonably incurred by any such Holder Indemnitee in connection with such claim, action, suit or proceeding or the defense thereof, except to the extent such Loss is the direct result of a misstatement or omission for which such Holder Indemnitee is liable to the Company under Section 9(i); provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 8(e) with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder Indemnitee on account of any such Loss arising from the sale of the Warrant Shares by such Holder Indemnitee to any person if a copy of the definitive prospectus shall not have been delivered or sent to such person within the time required by the Act and the regulations thereunder, and an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission of a material fact contained in such preliminary prospectus was corrected in the definitive prospectus. (f) In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required under Section 8(a) to include any of the Holders’ Warrant Shares in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the total amount of securities, including Warrant Shares, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by the Company that the underwriters determine in their sole discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Warrant Shares, which the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling stockholders according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each selling stockholder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such selling stockholders).

• Issuance of Preferred Stock So long as this Warrant remains outstanding, the Company will not issue any capital stock of any class preferred as to dividends or as to the distribution of assets upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, unless the rights of the holders thereof shall be limited to a fixed sum or percentage of par value in respect of participation in dividends and in the distribution of such assets.

• Conversion of Preferred Shares If, at any time, any of the Preferred Shares are converted into REIT Shares, in whole or in part, then a number of Partnership Preferred Units equal to the number of Preferred Shares so converted shall automatically be converted into a number of Partnership Common Units equal to (i) the number of REIT Shares issued upon such conversion divided by (ii) the Adjustment Factor then in effect, and the Percentage Interests of the General Partner and the Limited Partners shall be adjusted to reflect such conversion.

• Reservation of Preferred Stock The Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrantholder's rights has been duly and validly reserved and, when issued in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and will be free of any taxes, liens, charges or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever; provided, however, that the Preferred Stock issuable pursuant to this Warrant Agreement may be subject to restrictions on transfer under state and/or Federal securities laws. The Company has made available to the Warrantholder true, correct and complete copies of its Charter and Bylaws, as amended. The issuance of certificates for shares of Preferred Stock upon exercise of the Warrant Agreement shall be made without charge to the Warrantholder for any issuance tax in respect thereof, or other cost incurred by the Company in connection with such exercise and the related issuance of shares of Preferred Stock. The Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved and the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the Warrantholder.

• Valid Issuance of Preferred and Common Stock The Shares being purchased by the Investors hereunder, when issued, sold and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for the consideration expressed herein, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable, and will be free of restrictions on transfer other than restrictions on transfer under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and under applicable state and federal securities laws. The Conversion Shares have been duly and validly reserved for issuance and, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of the Restated Certificate, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable and will be free of restrictions on transfer other than restrictions on transfer under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and under applicable state and federal securities laws.

• Conversion of Preferred Stock If the Class is a class and series of the Company’s convertible preferred stock, in the event that all outstanding shares of the Class are converted, automatically or by action of the holders thereof, into common stock pursuant to the provisions of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, including, without limitation, in connection with the Company’s initial, underwritten public offering and sale of its common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act (the “IPO”), then from and after the date on which all outstanding shares of the Class have been so converted, this Warrant shall be exercisable for such number of shares of common stock into which the Shares would have been converted had the Shares been outstanding on the date of such conversion, and the Warrant Price shall equal the Warrant Price in effect as of immediately prior to such conversion divided by the number of shares of common stock into which one Share would have been converted, all subject to further adjustment thereafter from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.

• Reservation of Conversion Shares The Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Shares shall have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance upon such conversion.

• Registration of Ordinary Shares The Company agrees that as soon as practicable after the closing of its initial Business Combination, it shall use its best efforts to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement for the registration, under the Act, of the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, and it shall use its best efforts to take such action as is necessary to register or qualify for sale, in those states in which the Warrants were initially offered by the Company and in those states where holders of Warrants then reside, the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, to the extent an exemption is not available. The Company will use its best efforts to cause the same to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If any such registration statement has not been declared effective by the 90th day following the closing of the Business Combination, holders of the Warrants shall have the right, during the period beginning on the 91st day after the closing of the Business Combination and ending upon such registration statement being declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and during any other period when the Company shall fail to have maintained an effective registration statement covering the Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, to exercise such Warrants on a “cashless basis” as determined in accordance with Section 3.3.1(c). The Company shall provide the Warrant Agent with an opinion of counsel for the Company (which shall be an outside law firm with securities law experience) stating that (i) the exercise of the Warrants on a cashless basis in accordance with this Section 7.4 is not required to be registered under the Act and (ii) the Ordinary Shares issued upon such exercise will be freely tradable under U.S. federal securities laws by anyone who is not an affiliate (as such term is defined in Rule 144 under the Act) of the Company and, accordingly, will not be required to bear a restrictive legend. For the avoidance of any doubt, unless and until all of the Warrants have been exercised or have expired, the Company shall continue to be obligated to comply with its registration obligations under the first three sentences of this Section 7.4. The provisions of this Section 7.4 may not be modified, amended, or deleted without the prior written consent of the Representative.

• Issuance of Convertible Securities If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities, whether or not immediately convertible (other than where the same are issuable upon the exercise of Options) and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange is less than the Market Price on the date of issuance, then the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities will, as of the date of the issuance of such Convertible Securities, be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per share. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, the "price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange" is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or sale of all such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities. No further adjustment to the Exercise Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
