Such option, if granted, will expire 30 days (or such lesser number of days as may be specified in the applicable Terms Agreement) after the Representation Date relating to the Initial Underwritten Securities, and may be exercised in whole or in part from time to time upon notice by the Representatives to the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, setting forth the number of Option Securities as to which the several Underwriters are then exercising the option and the time, date and place of payment and delivery for such Option Securities. Any such time, date and place of delivery (a “Date of Delivery”) shall be determined by the Representatives, but shall not be later than seven full business days nor earlier than two full business days after the exercise of said option, nor in any event prior to the Closing Time, unless otherwise agreed upon by the Representatives and the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be. If the option is exercised as to all or any portion of the Option Securities, each of the Underwriters, acting severally and not jointly, will purchase that proportion of the total number of Option Securities then being purchased which the number of Initial Underwritten Securities each such Underwriter has severally agreed to purchase as set forth in the applicable Terms Agreement bears to the total number of Initial Underwritten Securities (except as otherwise provided in the applicable Terms Agreement), subject to such adjustments as the Representatives in their discretion shall make to eliminate any sales or purchases of fractional Underwritten Securities.

In addition, in the event that any or all of the Option Securities are purchased by the Underwriters, payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of certificates for, such Option Securities shall be made at the above-mentioned offices of Xxxxxxxx Chance US LLP, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representatives and the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, on each Date of Delivery as specified in the notice from the Representatives to the Company.

Certificates for the Underwritten Securities and the Option Securities, if any, shall be in such denominations and registered in such names as the Representatives may request in writing at least two business days before the Closing Time or the relevant Date of Delivery, as the case may be. It is understood that each Underwriter has authorized the Representatives, for its account, to accept delivery of, receipt for, and make payment of the purchase price for, the Underwritten Securities and the Option Securities, if any, which it has agreed to purchase. The Representatives, individually and not as representatives of the Underwriters, may (but shall not be obligated to) make payment of the purchase price for the Underwritten Securities or the Option Securities, if any, to be purchased by any Underwriter whose funds have not been received by the Closing Time or the relevant Date of Delivery, as the case may be, but any such payment shall not relieve such Underwriter from its obligations hereunder. The certificates for the Initial Securities and the Option Securities, if any, will be made available for examination and packaging by the Representatives not later than 10:00 A.M. on the last business day prior to the Closing Time or the relevant Date of Delivery, as the case may be, in New York, New York.

As compensation for arranging Delayed Delivery Contracts, the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will pay to the Representatives at Closing Time, for the respective accounts of the Underwriters, a fee equal to that percentage of the amount of Underwritten Securities for which Delayed Delivery contracts are made at the applicable Closing Time as is specified in the applicable Terms Agreement. Any Delayed Delivery Contracts are to be with institutional investors of the types described in the Prospectus. At the applicable Closing Time, the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will enter into Delayed Delivery Contracts (for not less than the minimum amount of Underwritten Securities per Delayed Delivery Contract specified in the applicable Terms Agreement) with all purchasers proposed by the Underwriters and previously approved by the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, as provided below, but not for an aggregate principal amount of Underwritten Securities in excess of that specified in the applicable Terms Agreement. The Underwriters will not have any responsibility for the validity or performance of Delayed Delivery Contracts. The Representatives shall submit to the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, at least three business days prior to the applicable Closing Time, the names of any institutional investors with which it is proposed that the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will enter into Delayed Delivery Contracts and the amount of Underwritten Securities to be purchased by each of them, and the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will advise the Representatives at least two business days prior to the applicable Closing Time, of the names of the institutions with which the making of Delayed Delivery Contracts is approved by the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, and the amount of Underwritten Securities to be covered by each such Delayed Delivery Contract. The amount of Underwritten Securities agreed to be purchased by the several Underwriters pursuant to the applicable Terms Agreement shall be reduced by the amount of Underwritten Securities covered by Delayed Delivery Contracts, as to each Underwriter as set forth in a written notice delivered by the Representatives to the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be; provided, however, that the total amount of Underwritten Securities to be purchased by all Underwriters shall be the total amount of Underwritten Securities covered by the applicable Terms Agreement, less the amount of Underwritten Securities covered by Delayed Delivery Contracts.
