Income Tax Characterization For purposes of federal income, state and local income and franchise and any other income taxes, the Issuer will, and each Noteholder by such Noteholder’s acceptance of any such Notes (and each Person who acquires an interest in any Notes through such Noteholder, by the acceptance by such Person of an interest in the applicable Notes) agrees to, treat the Notes that are characterized as indebtedness at the time of their issuance, and hereby instructs the Issuer to treat such Notes, as indebtedness for federal, state and other tax reporting purposes. Each Noteholder agrees that it will cause any Person acquiring an interest in a Note through it to comply with this Indenture as to treatment as indebtedness under applicable tax law, as described in this Section 3.21. The Notes will be issued with the intention that, for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes the Trust shall not be treated as an association or publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation. The parties hereto agree that they shall not cause or permit the making, as applicable, of any election under Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-3 (or any successor provision) whereby the Trust or any portion thereof would be treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. The provisions of this Indenture shall be construed in furtherance of the foregoing intended tax treatment.
Tax The Agreement is amended by deleting Section 2(d) in its entirety and replacing it with the following:
Tax Free Status No party shall, nor shall any party permit any of its subsidiaries to, or within the exercise of its reasonable best efforts its joint ventures to, take any actions which would, or would be reasonably likely to, adversely affect the status of the Mergers as a tax-free transaction (except as to any cash received) under Section 368(a) of the Code, and each party hereto shall use all reasonable efforts to achieve such result.
Federal Tax Status Commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2013, the Company has been organized and operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) under the Code, and will continue to operate in a manner that will enable it to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code for its taxable year ending December 31, 2019 and thereafter. All statements regarding the Company’s qualification and taxation as a REIT and descriptions of the Company’s organization and current and proposed method of operation (inasmuch as they relate to the Company’s qualification and taxation as a REIT) set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus are accurate and fair summaries of the legal or tax matters described therein in all material respects. Each of the Company’s direct or indirect corporate subsidiaries will qualify as a “taxable REIT subsidiary” within the meaning of Section 856(l) of the Code. The Operating Partnership will be treated as a partnership and not as an association taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Annual Tax Information The Managers shall cause the Company to deliver to the Member all information necessary for the preparation of the Member’s federal income tax return.
Tax Characterization Each party to this Agreement (a) acknowledges that it is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that, for accounting purposes and for all Federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, the Series 2009-1 Notes will be treated as evidence of indebtedness, (b) agrees to treat the Series 2009-1 Notes for all such purposes as indebtedness and (c) agrees that the provisions of the Related Documents shall be construed to further these intentions.
Prohibited Transactions Since the earlier of (a) such time as such Investor was first contacted by the Company or any other Person acting on behalf of the Company regarding the transactions contemplated hereby or (b) thirty (30) days prior to the date hereof, neither such Investor nor any Affiliate of such Investor which (x) had knowledge of the transactions contemplated hereby, (y) has or shares discretion relating to such Investor’s investments or trading or information concerning such Investor’s investments, including in respect of the Securities, or (z) is subject to such Investor’s review or input concerning such Affiliate’s investments or trading (collectively, “Trading Affiliates”) has, directly or indirectly, effected or agreed to effect any short sale, whether or not against the box, established any “put equivalent position” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(h) under the 0000 Xxx) with respect to the Common Stock, granted any other right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to the Common Stock or with respect to any security that includes, relates to or derived any significant part of its value from the Common Stock or otherwise sought to hedge its position in the Securities (each, a “Prohibited Transaction”). Prior to the earliest to occur of (i) the termination of this Agreement, (ii) the Effective Date or (iii) the Effectiveness Deadline, such Investor shall not, and shall cause its Trading Affiliates not to, engage, directly or indirectly, in a Prohibited Transaction. Such Investor acknowledges that the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Section 5.11 are being made for the benefit of the Investors as well as the Company and that each of the other Investors shall have an independent right to assert any claims against such Investor arising out of any breach or violation of the provisions of this Section 5.11.

The Participant further acknowledges that the rule set forth in the preceding sentence shall be applied by taking the Option and other “incentive stock options” into account in the order in which they were granted, as determined under Section 422(d) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.
