The Operating Partnership also proposes to issue and sell to the Initial Purchasers not more than an additional $15,000,000 principal amount of its 3.25% Exchangeable Senior Notes Due 2018 (the “Additional Securities”) if and to the extent that you, as managers (the “Managers”) of the offering, shall have determined to exercise, on behalf of the Initial Purchasers, the right to purchase such 3.25% Exchangeable Senior Notes Due 2018 granted to the Initial Purchasers in Section 2 hereof. The Firm Securities and the Additional Securities are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Securities.” The Securities will be exchangeable for shares (the “Underlying Securities”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Company Common Stock”).

The sale of the Securities and the Underlying Securities to the Initial Purchasers will be made without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirement under the Securities Act. The Initial Purchasers have advised the Operating Partnership and the Company that each Initial Purchaser will offer and sell the Securities purchased by it hereunder to qualified institutional buyers in compliance with the resale exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144A thereunder in accordance with the terms hereof as soon as such Initial Purchaser deems advisable.

The Initial Purchasers and their direct and indirect transferees will be entitled to the benefits of a Registration Rights Agreement dated the date hereof among the Operating Partnership, the Company and the Initial Purchasers (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).

In connection with the sale of the Securities, the Operating Partnership and the Company (i) have prepared a preliminary offering memorandum, dated November 20, 2013 (the “Preliminary Memorandum”) and (ii) will prepare a final offering memorandum (the “Final Memorandum”) including a description of the terms of the Securities, the Guarantees (as defined below) and the Underlying Securities, the terms of the offering and a description of the Operating Partnership and the Company, each for use by the Initial Purchasers in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities. For purposes of this Agreement, “Applicable Time” means 8:00 a.m. New York City time on November 22, 2013, or such other date and time as the Company and the Managers may agree, “Additional Written Offering Communication” means any written communication (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) that constitutes an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the Securities other than the Preliminary Memorandum or the Final Memorandum, and “Time of Sale Memorandum” means the Preliminary Memorandum together with the Pricing Supplement (as defined below) and any other Additional Written Offering Communication delivered by the Company to the Initial Purchasers prior to the Applicable Time, each identified in Schedule II hereto.

(pp) Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries carries or is entitled to the benefits of title insurance on the fee interests and/or leasehold interests (in the case of a ground lease interest) with respect to each Property with financially sound and reputable insurers, in an amount not less than such entity’s cost for the real property comprising such Property, insuring that such party is vested with good and insurable fee or leasehold title, as the case may be, to each such Property.

(qq) The Company and the Subsidiaries possess all certificates, licenses, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal, state or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses, and neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, license, authorization or permit which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, except as described in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum.

(rr) The consolidated financial statements included in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum, together with the related schedules and notes, present fairly the financial position of the Company and the Subsidiaries at the dates indicated, and the consolidated statements of operations, equity and cash flows of the Company and the Subsidiaries for the periods specified; said financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) as applied in the United States and on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved, except as may be expressly stated in the related notes thereto; said financial statements have been prepared on a consistent basis with the books and records of the Company and the Subsidiaries. The supporting schedules included in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum present fairly in accordance with U.S. GAAP the information required to be stated therein. The summary financial data set forth under the captions “Summary—Summary Selected Consolidated Financial Data,” “Selected Consolidated Financial Data” and “Capitalization” in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum fairly present, on the basis stated in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum, the information included therein. The financial statements of the properties acquired or proposed to be acquired, if any, included in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein, have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP and otherwise have been prepared in accordance with the applicable financial

statement requirements of Rule 3-05 or Rule 3-14, as applicable, of Regulation S-X. Other than the historical financial statements (and schedules) included in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum, no other historical or pro forma financial statements (or schedules) are required to be included therein. All disclosures contained in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum regarding “non-GAAP financial measures” (as such term is defined by the rules and regulations of the Commission) comply in all material respects with Regulation G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Item 10 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, in each case to the extent applicable.

(ss) The Company maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that: (i) transactions of the Company and the Subsidiaries are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations; (ii) transactions of the Company and the Subsidiaries are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP and to maintain asset accountability; (iii) access to assets of the Company and the Subsidiaries is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets of the Company and the Subsidiaries is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. Except as described in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum, since the end of the Company’s most recent audited fiscal year, there has been (i) no material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (whether or not remediated) and (ii) no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially adversely affected, or is reasonably likely to materially adversely affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

(tt) The Company is in compliance with all applicable provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or implementing the provisions thereof that are then in effect and with which the Company is required to comply as of the date of this Agreement.

(uu) Commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2012, the Company has been organized and has operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and its proposed method of operation will enable it to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code. All statements regarding the Company’s qualification and taxation as a REIT and descriptions of the Company’s organization and proposed method of operation (inasmuch as they relate to the Company’s qualification and taxation as a REIT) set forth in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum are true, complete and correct summaries of the legal or tax matters described therein in all materials respects.

(vv) The Company and each of the Subsidiaries has filed all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns required to be filed through the date of this Agreement or have requested extensions thereof and have paid all taxes required to be paid thereon (except, in each case, where the failure to file such tax returns or pay such taxes would not have a material adverse effect or except as such taxes are currently being contested in good faith and for which reserves required by U.S. GAAP have been created in the financial statements of the Company), and no proposed tax deficiency has been determined adversely to the Company or any of the Subsidiaries which has had (nor does the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries have any notice or knowledge of any tax deficiency which could reasonably be expected to be determined adversely to the Company or the Subsidiaries and which could reasonably be expected to have) a material adverse effect.

(ww)Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, including the regulations and published interpretations thereunder (“ERISA”). No “reportable event” (as defined in ERISA) has occurred with respect to any “pension plan” (as defined in ERISA) for which either the Company or the Operating Partnership would have any material liability. Neither the Company nor the Operating Partnership has incurred or expects to incur material liability under (i) Title IV of ERISA with respect to termination of, or withdrawal from, any “pension plan” or (ii) Sections 412, 403, 431, 432 or 4971 of the Code. Each “pension plan” for which either the Company or the Operating Partnership would have any liability that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified in all material respects and nothing has occurred thereunder, whether by action or by failure to act, which would cause the loss of such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified would not be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

(xx) Any statistical and market-related data included in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum are based on or derived from sources that the Company believes to be reliable and accurate in all material respects and, to the extent required, the Company has obtained the written consent to the use of such data from such sources.

(yy) Except as described in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum, the Company has not sold, issued or distributed any shares of Company Common Stock and the Operating Partnership has not sold, issued or distributed any partnership interests during the six-month period preceding the date hereof, including any sales pursuant to Rule 144A under, or Regulation D or S of, the Securities Act, other than shares issued pursuant to employee benefit plans, qualified stock option plans or other employee compensation plans or pursuant to outstanding options, rights or warrants.

(zz) From March 30, 2012 through the date hereof, the Company has been and is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act (an “Emerging Growth Company”).

(aaa)Neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries has (a) engaged in any Testing-the-Waters Communication or (b) authorized anyone to engage in Testing-the-Waters Communications. “Testing-the-Waters Communication” means any oral or written communication with potential investors undertaken in reliance on Section 5(d) of the Securities Act.

(bbb)Neither the Company nor the Operating Partnership has taken, directly or indirectly, any action prohibited by Regulation M under the Exchange Act in connection with the distribution of the Securities contemplated hereby.

(ccc)Neither the Company nor the Operating Partnership has issued any securities to which a rating is accorded by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization,” as such term is defined by the Commission for purposes of Rule 15c3-1(c)(2)(vi)(F) under the Exchange Act. The Securities do not and will not have a rating accorded to them by any such nationally recognized statistical rating organization.

2. Agreements to Sell and Purchase. Upon the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the conditions hereinafter stated, the Operating Partnership hereby agrees to sell to the several Initial Purchasers the Firm Securities as provided in this Agreement, the Company agrees to guarantee the Firm Securities as provided in the Indenture and each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Operating Partnership the respective principal amount of Firm Securities set forth in Schedule I hereto opposite its name at a purchase price of 97.00% of the principal amount thereof (the “Purchase Price”).

On the basis of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, and subject to its terms and conditions, the Operating Partnership agrees to sell to the Initial Purchasers the Additional Securities, the Company agrees to guarantee the Additional Securities as provided in the Indenture and the Initial Purchasers shall have the right to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to $15,000,000 principal amount of Additional Securities at the Purchase Price plus accrued interest, if any, to the date of payment and delivery. You may exercise this right on behalf of the Initial Purchasers in whole or from time to time in part by giving written notice not later than 30 days after the date of this Agreement. Any exercise notice shall specify the principal amount of Additional Securities to be purchased by the Initial Purchasers and the date on which such Additional Securities are to be purchased. Each purchase date must be at least one business day after the written notice is given and may not be earlier than the closing date for the Firm Securities nor later than five full business days after the date of such notice. Additional Securities may be purchased as provided in Section 4 solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments which may be made in connection with the offering and distribution of the Firm Securities. On each day, if any, that Additional Securities are to be purchased (an

“Option Closing Date”), each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the principal amount of Additional Securities (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional Securities as you may determine) that bears the same proportion to the total principal amount of Additional Securities to be purchased on such Option Closing Date as the principal amount of Firm Securities set forth in Schedule I opposite the name of such Initial Purchaser bears to the total principal amount of Firm Securities.

3. Terms of Offering. You have advised the Company and the Operating Partnership that the Initial Purchasers propose to make an offering of their respective portions of the Securities as soon practicable after this Agreement is entered into as in your judgment is advisable.

4. Payment and Delivery. Payment for the Firm Securities shall be made to the Operating Partnership in Federal or other funds immediately available in New York City against delivery of such Firm Securities for the respective accounts of the several Initial Purchasers at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on November 27, 2013, or at such other time on the same or such other date, not later than three business days after the date referenced earlier in this sentence, as shall be designated in writing by you. The time and date of such payment are hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date.”

Payment for any Additional Securities shall be made to the Operating Partnership in Federal or other funds immediately available in New York City against delivery of such Additional Securities for the respective accounts of the several Initial Purchasers at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Option Closing Date specified in the corresponding notice described in Section 2 or at such other time on the same or on such other Option Closing Date, in any event not later than five business days after the date on which the option granted to the Initial Purchasers under Section 2 above expires, as shall be designated in writing by you.

The Securities shall be delivered in the form of one or more permanent global notes in definitive form, deposited with the Trustee as custodian for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) and registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC. Interests in any permanent global securities will be held only in book-entry form through DTC, except in the limited circumstances described in the Time of Sale Memorandum. The Securities shall be delivered to you on the Closing Date or an Option Closing Date, as the case may be, for the respective accounts of the several Initial Purchasers, with any transfer taxes payable in connection with the transfer of the Securities to the Initial Purchasers duly paid, against payment of the Purchase Price therefor plus accrued interest, if any, to the date of payment and delivery.

Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, agrees with the Operating Partnership and the Company that it (and any person acting on its behalf): (i) will not solicit offers for, or offer or sell, such Securities by any form of general solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used in Regulation D under the Securities Act) or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act; (ii) will solicit offers for such Securities only from, and will offer such Securities only to, persons that it reasonably believes to be QIBs; and (iii) has taken or will take reasonable steps to ensure that each purchaser of the Securities is aware that the Securities are being offered and sold in reliance upon the representations and warranties deemed to have been made by such purchaser as provided in the Time of Sale Memorandum under the caption “Important Notice to Readers.”

(b) Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, represents, warrants, and agrees with respect to offers and sales outside the United States that:

(i) such Initial Purchaser understands that no action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction by the Company as the Operating Partnership that would permit a public offering of the Securities or the Guarantees, or possession or distribution of the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or any other offering or publicity material relating to the Securities or the Guarantees, in any country or jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required;

(ii) such Initial Purchaser will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in each jurisdiction in which it acquires, offers, sells or delivers Securities or the Guarantees or has in its possession or distributes the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale

Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or any such other material, in all cases at its own expense;

(iii) the Securities and the Guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons except in accordance with Rule 144A or pursuant to another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act;

(iv) such Initial Purchaser, in relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a “Relevant Member State”), has represented and agreed that with effect from and including the date on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Relevant Member State it has not made and will not make an offer of the Securities to the public in that Relevant Member State, other than:

(A) to any legal entity which is a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Directive;

(B) to fewer than 100 or, if the Relevant Member State has implemented the relevant provision of the 2010 PD Amending Directive, 150, natural or legal persons (other than qualified investors as defined in the Prospectus Directive), as permitted under the Prospectus Directive, subject to obtaining the prior consent of the Managers on behalf of the Initial Purchasers for any such offer; or

provided that no such offer of Securities shall require the Company or any Initial Purchaser to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive.

For the purposes of the above, the expression an “offer of the Securities to the public” in relation to any Securities in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Securities to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for the Securities, as the same may be varied in that Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member State, the expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC (and amendments thereto, including the 2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member State), and includes any relevant implementing measure in that Member State, and the expression “2010 PD Amending Directive” means Directive 2010/73/EU;

(v) such Initial Purchaser has represented and agreed that it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and will only communicate or cause to be communicated an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000) received by it in

connection with the issue or sale of the Securities in circumstances in which Section 21(1) of such Act does not apply to us and it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of such Act with respect to anything done by it in relation to any Securities in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom; and

(vi) such Initial Purchaser understands that the Securities and the Guarantees have not been and will not be registered under the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan, and represents that it has not offered or sold, and agrees not to offer or sell, directly or indirectly, any Securities or the Guarantees in Japan or for the account of any resident thereof except pursuant to any exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan and otherwise in compliance with applicable provisions of Japanese law.

(c) Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership agrees that the Initial Purchasers may provide copies of the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum and any other agreements or documents relating thereto, including without limitation, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement to Xtract Research LLC (“Xtract”), following completion of the offering, for inclusion in an online research service sponsored by Xtract, access to which shall be restricted by Xtract to QIBs.

Each Initial Purchaser understands that the Operating Partnership and the Company and, for purposes of the opinions to be delivered to you pursuant to Section 5 hereof, counsel to the Operating Partnership and the Company and counsel to you will rely upon the accuracy and truth of the foregoing representations and warranties and you hereby consent to such reliance.

9. Indemnity and Contribution.

(a) Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each affiliate of any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Additional Written Offering Communication prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Company or the Operating Partnership, any “road show” as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act (a “road show”), or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to any Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by such Initial Purchaser through you

expressly for use therein (that information being limited to that described in the last sentence of Section 9(b) hereof). Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership agrees and confirms that references to “affiliates” of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx that appear in this Agreement shall be understood to include Mitsubishi UFJ Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Securities Co., Ltd.

(b) Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers, the Operating Partnership, and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Operating Partnership within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company and the Operating Partnership to such Initial Purchaser, but only with reference to information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by such Initial Purchaser through you expressly for use in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Offering Communication prepared by or on behalf of, used by or referred to by the Company, road show, or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, such information being limited to the following: the seventh paragraph under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in each of the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum.

(c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 9 (a) or 9(b), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (2) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for (i) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Initial Purchasers and all persons, if any, who control any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act or who are affiliates of any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act, and (ii) the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Company, its directors, its officers, the Operating Partnership and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Operating Partnership within the meaning of either such Section, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Initial Purchasers and such control persons and affiliates of any Initial Purchasers, such firm

shall be designated in writing by the Managers. In the case of any such separate firm for the Company, and such directors, officers and control persons of the Company, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Company. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected by any indemnified party without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (A) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (B) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 9(a) or 9(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 9(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 9(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and of the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Operating Partnership and the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers bear to the aggregate offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Operating Partnership or by the Initial Purchasers

and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Initial Purchasers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 9 are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of Securities they have purchased hereunder, and not joint.

(e) The Company, the Operating Partnership and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 9(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 9(d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities resold by it in the initial placement of such Securities were offered to investors exceeds the amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 9 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(f) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 9 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Operating Partnership contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser, any person controlling any Initial Purchaser or any affiliate of any Initial Purchaser, or by or on behalf of the Company, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Securities.

10. Termination. The Initial Purchasers may terminate this Agreement by notice given by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, any of the NYSE or the NASDAQ Global Market, (ii) trading of any securities of the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (iii) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred, (iv) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by Federal or New York State authorities or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in your judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this clause (v), makes it, in your judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed

with the offer, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum or the Final Memorandum.

11. Effectiveness; Defaulting Initial Purchasers. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

If, on the Closing Date or an Option Closing Date, as the case may be, any one or more of the Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities that it has or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Initial Purchasers shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the principal amount of Firm Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I bears to the aggregate principal amount of Firm Securities set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, or in such other proportions as you may specify, to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the principal amount of Securities that any Initial Purchaser has agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section 11 by an amount in excess of one-ninth of such principal amount of Securities without the written consent of such Initial Purchaser. If, on the Closing Date, any Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Firm Securities which it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date and the aggregate principal amount of Firm Securities with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Firm Securities to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to you and the Operating Partnership for the purchase of such Firm Securities are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser, the Company or the Operating Partnership. In any such case either you or the Company and the Operating Partnership shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. If, on an Option Closing Date, any Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Additional Securities and the aggregate principal amount of Additional Securities with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Additional Securities to be purchased on such Option Closing Date, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers shall have the option to (i) terminate their obligation hereunder to purchase the Additional Securities to be sold on such Option Closing Date or (ii) purchase not less than the principal amount of Additional Securities that such non-defaulting Initial Purchasers would have been obligated to purchase in the absence of such default. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of any default of such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement.

If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Initial Purchasers, or any of them, because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company or the Operating Partnership to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company or the Operating Partnership shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Company and the Operating Partnership will reimburse the Initial Purchasers or such Initial Purchasers as have so terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchasers in connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.

12. Research Analyst Independence. Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership acknowledges that the Initial Purchasers’ research analysts and research departments are required to be independent from their respective investment banking divisions and are subject to certain regulations and internal policies, and that such Initial Purchasers’ research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish research reports with respect to the Company, the Operating Partnership and/or the offering that differ from the views of their respective investment banking divisions. Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership acknowledges that each of the Initial Purchasers is a full service securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities of the companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

13. Entire Agreement.

(a) This Agreement, together with any contemporaneous written agreements and any prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement) that relate to the offering of the Securities, represents the entire agreement between the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, with respect to the preparation of the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum, the conduct of the offering, and the purchase and sale of the Securities.

(b) The Company and the Operating Partnership acknowledge that in connection with the offering of the Securities: (i) the Initial Purchasers have acted at arm’s length, are not agents of, and owe no fiduciary duties to, the Company, the Operating Partnership or any other person; (ii) the Initial Purchasers owe the Company and the Operating Partnership only those duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement and prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement), if any; and (iii) the Initial Purchasers may have interests that differ from those of the Company and the Operating Partnership. The Company and the Operating Partnership waive to the full extent permitted by applicable law any claims they may have against the Initial Purchasers arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the offering of the Securities.

14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

15. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice of law or conflicting provision or rule (whether of the State of New York, or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York to be applied.

16. Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed a part of this Agreement.

Notices. All communications hereunder shall be in writing and effective only upon receipt and if to the Initial Purchasers shall be delivered, mailed or sent to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co.

Use of Proceeds:

The Issuer expects that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $96.6 million, or approximately $111.1 million if the initial purchasers exercise their over-allotment option in full, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and estimated expenses. The Issuer will use these net proceeds to reduce amounts outstanding under its senior secured revolving credit facility. Prior to the full deployment of the net proceeds from this offering as described above, the Issuer may invest the undeployed net proceeds in interest-bearing, short-term, investment-grade securities or money market accounts that are consistent with ARP’s intention to continue to qualify as a REIT. The Issuer expects that these initial investments will provide a lower net return than it expects to receive from the investments described above. See “Plan of Distribution—Other Relationships” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum

The exact stock price and effective date may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:


•	if the stock price is between two stock price amounts in the table or the effective date is between two dates in the table, the additional shares will be determined by straight-line interpolation between the number of additional shares set forth for the next higher and next lower stock price amounts and the earlier and later effective dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year;


•	if the stock price is greater than $90.00 per share of ARP common stock (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the exchange rate as set forth under “Description of Notes—Exchange Rights—Exchange Rate Adjustments” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum), no additional shares will be issued upon exchange; and


•	if the stock price is less than $17.39 per share of ARP common stock (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the exchange rate as set forth under “Description of Notes—Exchange Rights—Exchange Rate Adjustments” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum), no additional shares will be issued upon exchange.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the total number of shares of ARP common stock issuable upon exchange exceed 57.5043 per $1,000 principal amount of notes, subject to adjustment as described under

“Description of Notes—Exchange Rights—Exchange Rate Adjustments” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and subject further to the provisions of the notes relating to the exchange share cap.

Exchange Share Cap:

The number of shares of ARP common stock holders receive upon exchange may be subject to an “exchange share cap” unless and until ARP obtains stockholder approval to issue more than 19.99% of its common stock outstanding at the time the notes are initially issued upon exchange of the notes in accordance with the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange. The exchange share cap is equivalent to the pro rata portion of such 19.99% limit represented by the notes to be exchanged. If the initial purchasers exercise their over-allotment option in full, holders will not have the right to receive more than 55.9206 shares of ARP common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes upon an exchange of the notes, as adjusted for share splits and combinations. If the initial purchasers do not exercise any portion of their over-allotment option, the number of shares of ARP common stock deliverable upon exchange will not be subject to the exchange share cap. If the delivery of shares of ARP common stock upon exchange of the notes is subject to the exchange share cap, unless and until such stockholder approval is obtained, the Issuer will be deemed to have elected “combination settlement” with a specified dollar amount per $1,000 principal amount of notes of at least $1,000 for all notes submitted for exchange, which means the Issuer will be obligated to settle its exchange obligation by paying up to the specified dollar amount with respect to such notes in cash and delivering shares of ARP common stock for any exchange value in excess of such specified dollar amount. See “Description of the Notes—Exchange Rights—Exchange Settlement” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum.
