Indebtedness, had occurred at the beginning of such period; (ii) the repayment
or retirement of any other Indebtedness by the Company and its Subsidiaries
since the first day of such four-quarter period had been repaid or retired at

connection with any acquisition since the first day of such four-quarter
period, the related acquisition had occurred as of the first day of such
period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition being
included in such pro forma calculation; and (iv) in the case of any
acquisition or disposition by the Company or its Subsidiaries of any asset or
group of assets since the first day of such four-quarter period, whether by
merger, stock purchase or sale, or asset purchase or sale, such acquisition or
disposition or any related repayment of Indebtedness had occurred as of the
first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such
acquisition or disposition being included in such pro forma calculation.
(c) In addition to the limitations set forth in subsections
(a) and (b) of this Section 2.4, the Company will not, and will not permit any
Subsidiary to, incur any Indebtedness secured by any Encumbrance upon any of
the property of the Company or any Subsidiary if, immediately after giving
effect to the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness and the application
of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding
Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries (determined on a consolidated
basis in accordance with GAAP) which is secured by any Encumbrance on property
of the Company or any Subsidiary is greater than 40% of the sum of (without
duplication) (i) the Total Assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of
the end of the calendar quarter covered in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed
with the Commission (or, if such filing is not permitted under the Exchange
Act, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness
and (ii) the purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable
acquired, and the amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the
extent that such proceeds were not used to acquire real estate assets or
mortgages receivable or used to reduce Indebtedness), by the Company or any
9
Subsidiary since the end of such calendar quarter, including those proceeds
obtained in connection with the incurrence of such additional Indebtedness.

Total Unencumbered Assets equal to less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding
principal amount of the Unsecured Indebtedness of the Company and its
Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
