Terms of the Offering We may advise you orally or by one or more wires, telexes, telecopy or electronic data transmissions, or other written communications (each, a “Wire”) of the particular method and supplementary terms and conditions of any Offering (including the price or prices at which the Securities initially will be offered by the several Underwriters, or if the price is to be determined by a formula based on market price, the terms of the formula, (the “Offering Price”) and any Selling Concession or, if applicable, Reallowance) in which you are invited to participate. Any such Wire may also amend or modify such provisions of this Master SDA in respect of the Offering to which such Wire relates, and may contain such supplementary provisions as may be specified in any Wire relating to an Offering. To the extent such supplementary terms and conditions are inconsistent with any provision herein, such supplementary terms and conditions shall supersede any provision of this Master SDA. Unless otherwise indicated in any such Wire, acceptances and other communications by you with respect to an Offering should be sent pursuant to the terms of Section 19 hereof. Notwithstanding that we may not have sent you a Wire or other form of invitation to participate in such Offering or that you may not otherwise have responded by wire or other written communication (any such communication being deemed “In Writing”) to any such Wire or other form of invitation, you will be deemed to have accepted the terms of our offer to participate as a Selected Dealer and of this Master SDA (as amended, modified or supplemented by any Wire) by your purchase of Securities or otherwise receiving and retaining an economic benefit for participating in the Offering as a Selected Dealer. We reserve the right to reject any acceptance in whole or in part. Any Offering will be subject to delivery of the Securities and their acceptance by us and any other Underwriters may be subject to the approval of all legal matters by counsel and may be subject to the satisfaction of other conditions. Any application for additional Securities will be subject to rejection in whole or in part.
Terms of the Offer Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, the Purchasers will accept for payment and pay for Shares validly tendered on or prior to the Expiration Date and not withdrawn in accordance with Section 4 of this Offer to Purchase. The term “Expiration Date” shall mean 11:59 p.m., Pacific Time, on September 30, 2011, unless and until the Purchasers shall have extended the period of time for which the Offer is open, in which event the term “Expiration Date” shall mean the latest time and date on which the Offer, as so extended by the Purchasers, shall expire. The Offer is conditioned on satisfaction of certain conditions. See Section 13, which sets forth in full the conditions of the Offer. The Purchasers reserve the right (but shall not be obligated), in their sole discretion and for any reason, to waive any or all of such conditions. If, by the Expiration Date, any or all of such conditions have not been satisfied or waived, the Purchasers reserve the right (but shall not be obligated) to (i) decline to purchase any of the Shares tendered, terminate the Offer and return all tendered Shares to tendering Shareholders, (ii) waive all the unsatisfied conditions and, subject to complying with applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, purchase all Shares validly tendered, (iii) extend the Offer and, subject to the right of Shareholders to withdraw Shares until the Expiration Date, retain the Shares that have been tendered during the period or periods for which the Offer is extended or (iv) to amend the Offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the expiration of the Offer, if all conditions are either satisfied or waived, the Purchasers will promptly pay for all validly tendered Shares upon confirmation from the REIT that you own the Shares, and the Purchasers do not intend to imply that the foregoing rights of the Purchasers would permit the Purchasers to delay payment for validly tendered Shares following expiration. The Purchasers do not anticipate and have no reason to believe that any condition or event will occur that would prevent the Purchasers from purchasing tendered Shares as offered herein. Further, by tendering your Shares, you are agreeing to arbitrate any disputes that may arise between you and the Purchasers or the Depositary, to subject yourself to personal jurisdiction in Washington, and that the prevailing party in any such action will be entitled to recover attorney fees and costs. However, by so doing, you are not waiving any of your rights under the federal securities laws or any rule or regulation thereunder.
Terms and Conditions of the Offer The obligations of Purchaser to accept for payment, and pay for, any Shares validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer are subject only to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, including the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition, the Termination Condition and the other conditions set forth in Annex I (collectively, the “Offer Conditions”). The Offer shall be made by means of an offer to purchase (the “Offer to Purchase”) that contains the Offer Conditions and the other terms set forth in this Agreement. Purchaser expressly reserves the right, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, to (i) increase the Offer Price, (ii) waive any Offer Condition and (iii) make any other changes in the terms and conditions of the Offer not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Company, Parent and Purchaser shall not (A) decrease the Offer Price (other than in a manner required by Section 1.1(g),) (B) change the form of consideration payable in the Offer, (C) decrease the maximum number of Shares sought to be purchased in the Offer, (D) impose conditions or requirements to the Offer in addition to the Offer Conditions, (E) amend, modify or waive the Minimum Condition, Termination Condition or the conditions set forth in clause (e) or (g) of Annex I, (F) otherwise amend or modify any of the other terms of the Offer in a manner that materially and adversely affects, or would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect, any holder of Shares in its capacity as such (provided that Purchaser expressly reserves the right but shall not be obligated to waive any of the Offer Conditions), (G) except as provided in Sections 1.1(c) or 1.1(d), terminate the Offer or accelerate, extend or otherwise change the Expiration Date or (H) provide any “subsequent offering period” (or any extension thereof) within the meaning of Rule 14d-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act. In accordance with Section 1.1(d), the Offer may not be withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date (or any rescheduled Expiration Date) of the Offer, unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 8.1.
Conditions of the Offer Notwithstanding any other term of the Offer, the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) will not be required to accept for payment or to pay for any Units tendered if all authorizations, consents, orders or approvals of, or declarations or filings with, or expirations of waiting periods imposed by, any court, administrative agency or commission or other governmental authority or instrumentality, domestic or foreign, necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Offer shall not have been filed, occurred or been obtained prior to the Expiration Date. Furthermore, notwithstanding any other term of the Offer and in addition to the Purchaser's right to withdraw the Offer at any time before the Expiration Date, the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) will not be required to accept for payment or pay for any Units not theretofore accepted for payment or paid for and may terminate or amend the Offer as to such Units if, at any time on or after the date of the Offer and before the Expiration Date, any of the following conditions exists:

The Manager may, at its discretion, delegate to any Underwriter any and all authority vested in the applicable AAU, including, but not limited to, the powers set forth in Sections 5.1 and 5.2 hereof.
