(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness of such registration and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the resale of the Issuee Stock covered by such registration statement;
(c) furnish to the Issuee such number of conformed copies of such registration statement and of each such amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits), such number of copies of the prospectus contained in such registration statements (including each complete prospectus and any summary prospectus) and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 under the Securities Act, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents, including documents incorporated by reference, as the Issuee may reasonably request;
(d) register or qualify the Issuee Stock under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Issuee shall reasonably request and to keep such registration or qualification in effect for so long as such registration statement remains in effect, and take any other action which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Issuee Stock for sale in such jurisdictions, except that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to do business as a foreign

(e) cause all Issuee Stock covered by such registration statement to be registered with or approved by such other government authority as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Issuee to offer for sale Issuee Stock pursuant to such registration statement;
(f) in the event of a sale of Issuee Stock in an underwritten offering pursuant to the Shelf Registration, furnish to the Issuee a signed counterpart, addressed to the Issuee and such underwriter, of:

(ii) to the extent permitted by then applicable rules of professional conduct, a “comfort” letter, dated the effective date of such registration statement, signed by the independent public accountants who have certified the Company’s financial statements included in such registration statement, covering substantially the same matters with respect to such registration statement (and the prospectus included therein) and, in the case of the accountants’ letter, with respect to events subsequent to the date of such financial statements, as is customarily covered in accountants’ letters delivered to the underwriters in underwritten public offerings of securities;
(g) immediately notify the Issuee at any time when the Company becomes aware that a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, and to promptly (but in any event, within five business days) prepare and furnish to the Issuee a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus;
(h) comply or continue to comply in all material respects with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least 12 months, but not more than 18 months, beginning with the first full calendar month after the effective date of such registration statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, and not file any amendment or supplement to such
5
registration statement or prospectus to which the Issuee shall have reasonably objected on the grounds that such amendment or supplement does not comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act;
(i) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Issuee Stock covered by such registration statement not later than the effective date of such registration statement; and
(j) list all Issuee Stock covered by such registration statement on each securities exchange on which any of the Company Common Stock is then listed.
In connection with any registration statement, prospectus or other document filed or prepared pursuant to this Agreement, the Issuee shall furnish in writing to the Company such information regarding the Issuee (and any of its affiliates), the Company Common Stock to be sold, the intended method of distribution of such Company Common Stock, and such other information reasonably requested by the Company. Such writing shall expressly state that it is being furnished to the Company for use in the preparation of a registration statement, preliminary prospectus, supplementary prospectus, final prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, as the case may be.
The Issuee agrees by acquisition of the Issuee OP Units that upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in paragraph (g) of this Section 4, the Issuee will forthwith cease to offer for sale Issuee Stock pursuant to the registration statement relating to such Issuee Stock until the Issuee’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by paragraph (g) of this Section 4.
5. Preparation; Reasonable Investigation. In connection with the preparation and filing of the Shelf Registration under the Securities Act, the Company will give the Issuee and its counsel the opportunity to participate in the preparation of such registration statement, each prospectus included therein or filed with the Commission, and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto, and will give each of them such access to its books and records and such opportunities to discuss the business of the Company with its officers, its counsel and the independent public accountants who have certified its financial statements as shall be necessary, in the opinion of the Issuee’s counsel, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act.
6. Indemnification
(a) Indemnification by the Company. In the event of any registration of any Company Common Stock under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless the Issuee and its affiliates, officers, directors, agents, partners and representatives against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Issuee may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Company Common Stock was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary
6
prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and the Company will reimburse the Issuee for any reasonable legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, liability, action or proceedings; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Issuee specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation thereof. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Issuee and shall survive the transfer of such securities by the Issuee.
(b) Indemnification by the Issuee. The Issuee will, and hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section 6) the Company, each director of the Company, each officer of the Company and each other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, with respect to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact from such registration statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, if such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Issuee specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any such director, officer, or controlling person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by the Issuee.
(c) Notices of Claims, etc. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 6, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action; provided, however, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party, unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified to the extent that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.
7
(d) Other Indemnification. Indemnification similar to that specified in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 6 (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by the Company and the Issuee with respect to any required registration or other qualification of securities under any federal or state law or regulation of Governmental Authority other than the Securities Act.
(e) Indemnification Payments. The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred.
(f) Contribution. If, for any reason, the foregoing indemnity is unavailable, or is insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of the expense, loss, damage or liability, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other (determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission), or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law or provides a lesser sum to the indemnified party than the amount hereinafter calculated, in the proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, but also the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. No indemnified party guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any indemnifying party who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
7. Covenants Relating to Rule 144. The Company will file in a timely manner (taking into account any extensions granted by the Commission), information, documents and reports in compliance with the Exchange Act and will, at its expense, forthwith upon the request of the Issuee, deliver to the Issuee a certificate, signed by the Company’s principal financial officer, stating (a) the Company’s name, address and telephone number (including area code), (b) the Company’s Internal Revenue Service identification number, (c) the Company’s Commission file number, (d) the number of shares and class of Company capital stock outstanding as shown by the most recent report or statement published by the Company, and (e) whether the Company has filed the reports required to be filed under the Exchange Act for a period of at least 90 days prior to the date of such certificate and in addition has filed the most recent annual report required to be filed thereunder. If at any time the Company is not required to file reports in compliance with either Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will, at its expense, forthwith upon the written request of the Issuee, make available adequate current public information with respect to the Company within the meaning of paragraph (c)(2) of Rule 144 of the General Rules and Regulations promulgated under the Securities Act.
