NOW, THEREFORE IT IS AGREED:
ARTICLE ONE
Definitions, Creation, Form and Terms and Conditions of the Debt Securities
SECTION 1.01 Definitions. (a) Capitalized terms used in this Third Supplemental Indenture and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Base Indenture. In addition, the following additional terms shall have the following meanings to be equally applicable to both the singular and the plural forms of the terms defined:
“Closing Date” means December 10, 2012.
“Global Note” means a single fully-registered global note in book entry form, without coupons, substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto.
“Indenture” means the Base Indenture as supplemented by this Third Supplemental Indenture.
“Intercompany Debt” means Debt to which the only parties are the Trust, any of its subsidiaries, the Company and any Subsidiary, or Debt owed to the Trust arising from routine cash management practices, but only so long as such Debt is held solely by any of the Trust, any of its subsidiaries, the Company and any Subsidiary.
“Subsidiary” shall have the meaning provided in the Base Indenture and shall include Liberty Property Development Corp. and Liberty Property Development Corp.-II.
(b) The following term, which is defined in the Base Indenture, is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“Reinvestment Rate” means means the yield on Treasury securities at a constant maturity corresponding to the remaining life (as of the date of redemption, and rounded to the nearest month) to Stated Maturity of the principal being redeemed (the “Treasury Yield”), plus 0.30%. For purposes hereof, the Treasury Yield shall be equal to the arithmetic mean of the yields published in the Statistical Release under the heading “Week Ending” for “U.S. Government Securities - Treasury Constant Maturities” with a maturity equal to such remaining life; provided, that if no published maturity exactly corresponds
to such remaining life, then the Treasury Yield shall be interpolated or extrapolated on a straight-line basis from the arithmetic means of the yields for the next shortest and next longest published maturities. For purposes of calculating the Reinvestment Rate, the most recent Statistical Release published prior to the date of determination of the Make-Whole Amount shall be used. If the format or content of the Statistical Release changes in a manner that precludes determination of the Treasury Yield in the above manner, then the Treasury Yield shall be determined in the manner that most closely approximates the above manner, as reasonably determined by the Company.
(c) With respect to the securities of all series created on or after the date of this Third Supplemental Indenture, the term “Unencumbered Total Asset Value”, which is defined in the Base Indenture, shall have the following meaning:
“Unencumbered Total Asset Value” as of any date means the sum of: (i) the value of those Undepreciated Real Estate Assets not subject to an encumbrance; and (ii) the value of all other assets of the Partnership and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis not subject to an encumbrance, as determined in accordance with GAAP (but excluding accounts receivable and intangibles); provided, however, that all investments by the Company and its Subsidiaries in unconsolidated joint ventures, unconsolidated limited partnerships, unconsolidated limited liability companies and other unconsolidated entities shall be excluded from Unencumbered Total Asset Value to the extent that such investments would have otherwise been included.
SECTION 1.02 Creation of the Debt Securities. In accordance with Section 301 of the Base Indenture, the Company hereby creates the Notes as a separate series of its debt securities issued pursuant to the Indenture. The Notes shall be issued in an aggregate principal amount initially limited to $300,000,000.
The Company may issue, in addition to the Notes originally issued on the Closing Date, additional Notes. The Notes originally issued on the Closing Date and any additional Notes originally issued subsequent to the Closing Date shall be a single series for all purposes under the Indenture.
SECTION 1.03 Form of the Debt Securities. The Notes will be represented by one or more fully-registered global notes in book-entry form, without coupons, registered in the name of the nominee of DTC. The Notes shall be in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto and the terms set forth in such form shall be incorporated herein. So long as DTC, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a Global Note, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the Notes represented by such Global Note for all purposes under the Indenture. Ownership of beneficial interests in the Global Note will be shown on, and transfers thereof will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to beneficial interests of participants) or by participants or persons that hold interests through participants (with respect to beneficial interests of beneficial owners).
SECTION 1.04 Terms and Conditions of the Debt Securities. The Notes shall be governed by all the terms and conditions of the Base Indenture, as supplemented by this Third Supplemental Indenture, and in particular, the following provisions shall be the terms of the Notes:
(a) Optional Redemption. At any time prior to March 15, 2023, the Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or from time to time in part, at a redemption price equal to the Redemption Price.
At any time on or after March 15, 2023, the Notes will be redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or from time to time in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date.
If notice of redemption has been given as provided in the Indenture and funds for the redemption of the Notes called for redemption shall have been made available on the Redemption Date referred to in such notice, such Notes will cease to bear interest on the date fixed for such redemption specified in such notice and the only right of the Holders of such Notes from and after the Redemption Date will be to receive payment of the Redemption Price upon surrender of such Notes in accordance with such notice.
Notice of any optional redemption of any Notes will be given to Holders at their addresses, as shown in the Security Register for the Notes, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. The notice of redemption will specify, among other items, the Redemption Price and the principal amount of the Notes held by such Holder to be redeemed.
If all or less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at the option of the Company, the Company will notify the Trustee at least 45 days prior to giving notice of redemption (or such shorter period as is satisfactory to the Trustee) of the
aggregate principal amount of Notes to be redeemed and their Redemption Date. The Company shall give the Trustee notice of the Make-Whole Amount promptly after the calculation thereof and if the Company has requested that the Trustee give to the Holders the notice of redemption required by Section 1104 of the Base Indenture, such notice from the Company shall be given to the Trustee at such time as shall permit the Trustee to include notice of the Make-Whole Amount in such notice of redemption. The Trustee shall have no responsibility for calculating the Make-Whole Amount. The Trustee shall select, in such manner as it shall deem fair and appropriate, no less than 60 days prior to the date of redemption, the Notes to be redeemed in part.
Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be required to: (i) issue, register the transfer of or exchange Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Notes to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing the relevant notice of redemption; or (ii) register the transfer of or exchange any Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.t.
(b) Maturity; Payment of Principal and Interest. The principal amount of the Notes shall be payable on June 15, 2023, subject to the provisions of the Indenture and the Notes. Interest will accrue from December 10, 2012. The Notes will bear interest at 3.375% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on June 15, 2013. Principal and interest payments on interests represented by a Global Note will be made to DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of such Global Note. All payments of principal and interest in respect of the Global Note will be made by the Company in immediately available funds. The principal of the Notes payable on the Maturity Date or upon redemption will be paid against presentation and surrender of the Notes at the corporate trust office of the Trustee at 00 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 0xx Xxxxx, Xxxx Drop Window, Xx. Xxxx, XX, 00000, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public or private debt.

(b) The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt if the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service to the Annual Service Charge on the date on which such additional Debt is to be incurred, on a pro forma basis, after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt and to the application of the proceeds thereof would have been less than 1.5 to 1.
(c) The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt secured by any mortgage, lien, charge, pledge, encumbrance or security interest of any kind upon any of the properties of the Company or any Subsidiary (“Secured Debt”), whether owned at the date hereof or hereafter acquired, if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Secured Debt and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Secured Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis is greater than 40% of the sum of: (i) the Company's Adjusted Total Assets as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter prior to the incurrence of such additional Debt; and (ii) the increase in Adjusted Total Assets since the end of such quarter (including any increase resulting from the incurrence of additional Debt).
(d) The Company will at all time maintain an Unencumbered Total Asset Value in an amount not less than 150% of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding unsecured Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
For purposes of the foregoing provisions regarding the limitation on the incurrence of Debt, Debt shall be deemed to be “incurred” by the Company or a Subsidiary whenever the Company or such Subsidiary shall create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable in respect thereof.

3.375% Senior Note due 2023
December 10, 2012
Liberty Property Limited Partnership, a Pennsylvania limited partnership (the “Issuer,” which term includes any successor under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co. or its registered assigns, the principal sum of Three Hundred Million Dollars ($300,000,000) on June 15, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”), and to pay interest thereon from December 10, 2012 (or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for), semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on June 15, 2013, and on the Maturity Date, at the rate of 3.375% per annum, until payment of said principal sum has been made or duly provided for.
The interest so payable and punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date and on the Maturity Date will be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the “Record Date” for such payment, which will be the June 1 or December 1 (regardless of whether such day is a Business Day (as defined below)) preceding such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the
case may be. Any interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such record date, and shall be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a subsequent record date for the payment of such defaulted interest (which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the payment of such defaulted interest) established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Issuer to the Holders of the Securities of this series not less than 10 days preceding such subsequent record date. Interest on this Note will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
The principal of this Note payable on the Maturity Date or upon redemption will be paid against presentation and surrender of this Note at the corporate trust office of the Trustee at 00 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 0xx Xxxxx, Xxxx Drop Window, Xx.

If any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day (as defined below), the required payment of interest or principal or both, as the case may be, will be made on the next Business Day with the same force and effect as if it were made on the date such payment was due and no interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or a Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions in Chicago or the City of New York are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close.
Payments of principal and interest in respect of this Note will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.
Reference is made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof. Such further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

The Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature at different times, may bear interest (if any) at different rates, may be subject to different redemption provisions (if any), and may otherwise vary as provided in the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto. This Security is one of a series designated as the 3.375% Notes due 2023 of the Issuer.
In case an Event of Default with respect to this Security shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal hereof and Make Whole Amount, if any, may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect, and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.
The Issuer may redeem this Security at any time at the option of the Issuer, in whole or from time to time in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) the principal amount of this Security being redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount, if any, with respect to this Security. Notice of any optional redemption of any Securities of this series will be given to Holders thereof at their addresses, as shown in the Security Register for the Securities of this series, not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. The notice of redemption will specify, among other items, the Redemption Price and the principal amount of the Securities of this series held by such Holder to be redeemed.

It is also provided in the Indenture that, with respect to certain defaults or Events of Default regarding the Securities of any series, the Holders of a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Securities of such series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive any such past default or Event of Default and its consequences, or, subject to certain conditions, may rescind a declaration of acceleration and its consequences with respect to such Securities. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of this Security and any Securities that may be issued in exchange or substitution herefor, irrespective of whether or not any notation thereof is made upon this security or such other securities.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any Make-Whole Amount and interest on this Security in the manner, at the respective times, at the rate and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.
