The Representatives Named in the Terms Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Duke Realty Corporation (the “Company”) may from time to time offer in one or more series (i) shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value (the “Common Stock”), (ii) shares of preferred stock, $.01 par value (the “Preferred Stock”), (iii) shares of Preferred Stock represented by depositary shares (the “Depositary Shares”), (iv) warrants to purchase Common Stock, Preferred Stock and/or Depositary Shares (“Warrants”), (v) stock purchase contracts to purchase Common Stock, Preferred Stock and/or Depositary Shares (“Stock Purchase Contracts”), and (vi) units comprised of one or more of the Securities (as defined below) (“Duke Units”). Duke Realty Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) may from time to time offer in one or more series unsecured non-convertible investment grade debt securities (the “Debt Securities”). The Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Depositary Shares, Warrants, Stock Purchase Contracts, Duke Units and Debt Securities (collectively, the “Securities”) may be offered, separately or together, in separate series, in amounts, at prices and on terms to be set forth in one or more Prospectus Supplements as hereinafter defined. The Debt Securities will be issued under one or more indentures, as amended or supplemented (each, an “Indenture”), between the Operating Partnership and a trustee (a “Trustee”). Each series of Debt Securities may vary, as applicable, as to aggregate principal amount, maturity date, interest rate or formula and timing of payments thereof, redemption or repayment provisions, and any other variable terms which the Indenture contemplates may be set forth in the Debt Securities as issued from time to time. As used herein, “the Representatives,” unless the context otherwise requires, shall mean the parties, identified in the applicable Terms Agreement (as hereinafter defined) as the Representatives with respect to Underwritten Securities (as hereinafter defined) purchased pursuant thereto.

Whenever the Company or the Operating Partnership determines to make an offering of Securities through the Representatives or through an underwriting syndicate managed by the Representatives, the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will enter into an agreement (the “Terms Agreement”) providing for the sale of such Securities (the “Underwritten Securities”) to, and the purchase and offering thereof by, the Representatives and such other underwriters, if any, selected by the Representatives as have authorized the Representatives to enter into such Terms Agreement on their behalf (the “Underwriters,” which term shall include the Representatives whether acting alone in the sale of the Underwritten Securities or as a member of an underwriting syndicate and any Underwriter

substituted pursuant to Section 10 hereof). In addition to specifying the names of the Representatives, the Terms Agreement relating to the offering of Underwritten Securities shall specify the amount of Underwritten Securities to be initially issued (the “Initial Securities”), the names of the Underwriters participating in such offering (subject to substitution as provided in Section 10 hereof), the amount of Initial Securities which each such Underwriter severally agrees to purchase, the price at which the Initial Securities are to be purchased by the Underwriters from the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, the initial public offering price, if any, of the Initial Securities, the form, time, date and place of delivery and payment, any delayed delivery arrangements and any other variable terms of the Initial Securities (including, but not limited to, current ratings, designations, liquidation preferences, voting and other rights, denominations, interest rates or formulas, interest payment dates, maturity dates and redemption or repayment provisions applicable to the Initial Securities). In addition, each Terms Agreement shall specify whether the Underwriters will be granted an option to purchase additional Underwritten Securities to cover over-allotments, if any, and the aggregate amount of Underwritten Securities subject to such option (the “Option Securities”). As used herein, the term “Underwritten Securities” shall include the Initial Securities and all or any portion of the Option Securities agreed to be purchased by the Underwriters as provided herein, if any. The Terms Agreement, which shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, may take the form of an exchange of any standard form of written telecommunication between the Representatives and the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be. Each offering of Underwritten Securities through the Representatives or through an underwriting syndicate managed by the Representatives will be governed by this Agreement, as supplemented by the applicable Terms Agreement.

The Company and the Operating Partnership have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-136173) for the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and the offering thereof from time to time in accordance with Rule 430A or Rule 415 of the rules and regulations of the Commission under the 1933 Act (the “1933 Act Regulations”), and the Company and the Operating Partnership have filed such amendments thereto as may have been required prior to the execution of the applicable Terms Agreement. Such registration statement (as amended, if applicable), pursuant to the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations, automatically became effective upon the filing thereof with the Commission, and the Indenture included in such registration statement has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “1939 Act”). Such registration statement, as amended to the date of the applicable Terms Agreement, including the information, if any, deemed to be part thereof pursuant to Rule 430A or Rule 430(B) of the 1933 Act Regulations, and the prospectus constituting a part thereof in the form first used to confirm sales of the Underwritten Securities (or in the form first made available to the Representatives to meet requests of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the 1933 Act) (the “Basic Prospectus”), together with each prospectus supplement specifically relating to the offering of Underwritten Securities in the form first used to confirm sales of the Underwritten Securities (or in the form first made available to the Representatives to meet requests of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the 0000 Xxx) pursuant to Rule 415 of the 1933 Act Regulations (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”), including all documents incorporated therein by reference, as from time to time amended or supplemented pursuant to the 1933 Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) or otherwise, are collectively referred to herein as the “Registration Statement” and the “Prospectus,” respectively; and the term “preliminary prospectus” means the Basic Prospectus together with any preliminary form of the Prospectus Supplement. For purposes of this Agreement, “free writing prospectus” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act and “Time of Sale Prospectus” means the Basic Prospectus and, if any preliminary prospectus is used, the preliminary prospectus together with the free writing prospectuses, if any, each identified in Schedule I to the applicable Terms Agreement. Any registration statement (including any supplement thereto or information which is deemed part thereof) filed by the Company or the Operating Partnership under Rule 462(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations (a “Rule 462(b) Registration Statement”) shall be deemed to be part

A-1

Any prospectus (including any amendment or supplement thereto or information which is deemed part thereof) included in the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement shall be deemed to be part of the Prospectus. The term “Time of Sale Prospectus” shall also include the documents, if any, incorporated by reference therein. All references in this Agreement to financial statements and schedules and other information which is “contained,” “included” or “stated” in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, or the free writing prospectuses (and all other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such financial statements and schedules and other information which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, or the free writing prospectuses, as the case may be; and all references in this Agreement to amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, or the free writing prospectuses shall be deemed to mean and include the filing of any document under the 1934 Act which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, or the free writing prospectuses, as the case may be.

(b) The Company and the Operating Partnership represent and warrant, jointly and severally, to the Representatives, as of the date hereof, and to the Representatives and each other Underwriter named in the applicable Terms Agreement, as of the date thereof, as of the Closing Time (as defined below) and, if applicable, as of each Date of Delivery (as defined below) (in each case, a “Representation Date”), as follows:

(i) Pursuant to the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations, the Registration Statement automatically became effective upon the filing thereof with the Commission; no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been received by the Company, and, to the Company’s knowledge, no proceedings for such purpose are pending before or threatened by the Commission or by the state securities authority of any jurisdiction, and any request on the part of the Commission for additional information has been complied with. The Registration Statement is an “automatic effective registration statement” as defined under Rule 405 of the 1933 Act that has been filed with the Commission not earlier than three years prior to the date hereof; and no notice of objection of the Commission to the use of such registration statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) under the 1933 Act has been received by the Company or the Operating Partnership. No stop order preventing or suspending the use of the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus has been received by the Company, and, to the Company’s knowledge, no proceedings for such purpose are pending before or threatened by the Commission or by the state securities authority of any jurisdiction. If the Registration Statement is an automatic shelf registration statement as defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act, the Company or the Operating Partnership, as applicable, is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the 0000 Xxx) eligible to use the Registration Statement as an automatic shelf registration statement and the Company or the Operating Partnership, as applicable has not received notice that the Commission objects to the use of the Registration Statement as an automatic shelf registration statement.

The Registration Statement, at the time the Registration Statement became effective, did not, and as of each Representation Date, will not, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Time of Sale Prospectus, at the time of each sale of the applicable Underwritten Securities (the “Applicable Time”), the Closing Time and the Date of Delivery, if any, as then amended or supplemented by the Company, if applicable, will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Prospectus, as of its date and as of the Closing Time and Date of Delivery, if any, will not, include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the representations and warranties in this subsection shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company or the Operating Partnership in writing by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus or to that part of the Registration Statement which shall constitute the Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1 under the 1939 Act (the “Statement of Eligibility”) of a Trustee under an Indenture.

(iii) Each preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, and any Prospectus Supplement filed as part of the Registration Statement as originally filed or as part of any amendment thereto, or filed pursuant to Rule 424 or Rule 433 (to the extent prepared by the Company) under the 1933 Act, complied or will comply when so filed in all material respects with the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations thereunder.

(v) Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership is not an “ineligible issuer” in connection with the offering of the applicable Underwritten Securities pursuant to Rules 164, 405 and 433 under the 1933 Act. Any free writing prospectus that the Company or the Operating Partnership is required to file pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the 1933 Act has been, or will be, filed with the Commission in accordance with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. Each free writing prospectus that the Company and the Operating Partnership has filed, or is required to file, pursuant to

A-3

Rule 433(d) under the 1933 Act or that was prepared by or on behalf of or used or referred to by the Company and the Operating Partnership complies or will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. Except for the free writing prospectuses, if any, identified in Schedule I to the applicable Terms Agreement, and electronic road shows each furnished to you before first use, if any, the Company has not prepared, used or referred to, and will not, without your prior consent, prepare, use or refer to, any free writing prospectus.

SECTION 2. Sale and Delivery to Underwriters; Closing.

(b) The several commitments of the Underwriters to purchase the Underwritten Securities pursuant to the applicable Terms Agreement shall be deemed to have been made on the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein or in the applicable Terms Agreement.

(c) In addition, on the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, may grant, if so provided in the applicable Terms Agreement relating to the Initial Underwritten Securities, an option to the Underwriters named in such Terms Agreement, severally and not jointly, to purchase up to the number of Option Securities set forth therein at the same price per Option Security as is applicable to the Initial Underwritten Securities, less an amount equal to any dividends or distributions declared by the Company and paid or payable on the Initial Underwritten Securities but not payable on the Option Securities. Such option, if granted, will expire 30 days (or such lesser number of days as may be specified in the applicable Terms Agreement) after the Representation Date relating to the Initial Underwritten Securities, and may be exercised in whole or in part from time to time only for the purpose of covering over-allotments which may be made in connection with the offering and distribution of the Initial Underwritten Securities upon notice by the Representatives to the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, setting forth the number of Option Securities as to which the several Underwriters are then exercising the option and the time, date and place of payment and delivery for such Option Securities. Any such time, date and place of delivery (a “Date of Delivery”) shall be determined by the Representatives, but shall not be later than seven full business days nor earlier than two full business days after the exercise of said option, nor in any event prior to the Closing Time, unless otherwise agreed upon by the Representatives and the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be. If the option is exercised as to all or any portion of the Option Securities, each of the Underwriters, acting severally and not jointly, will purchase that proportion of the total number of Option Securities then being purchased which the number of Initial Underwritten Securities each such Underwriter has severally agreed to purchase as set forth in the applicable Terms Agreement bears to the total number of Initial Underwritten Securities (except as otherwise provided in the applicable Terms Agreement), subject to such adjustments as the Representatives in their discretion shall make to eliminate any sales or purchases of fractional Underwritten Securities.

(d) Payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of certificates for, the Initial Underwritten Securities to be purchased by the Underwriters shall be made at the offices of Xxxxxxxx Chance US LLP, 00 Xxxx 00^xx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representatives and the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, at 10:00 A.M. on the fourth business day (or the third business day if required under Rule 15c6-1 of the 1934 Act, or unless postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section 10) following the date of the applicable Terms Agreement or at such other time as shall be agreed upon by the Representatives and the Company (such time and date of payment and delivery being herein called the “Closing Time”). In addition, in the event that any or all of the Option Securities are purchased by the Underwriters, payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of certificates for, such Option Securities shall be made at the above-mentioned offices of Xxxxxxxx Chance US LLP, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representatives and the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, on each Date of Delivery as specified in the notice from the Representatives to the Company.

Payment for the Underwritten Securities shall be made to the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, against delivery to the Representatives for the respective accounts of the Underwriters of the Underwritten Securities to be

A-13

purchased by them. Certificates for the Underwritten Securities and the Option Securities, if any, shall be in such denominations and registered in such names as the Representatives may request in writing at least two business days before the Closing Time or the relevant Date of Delivery, as the case may be. It is understood that each Underwriter has authorized the Representatives, for its account, to accept delivery of, receipt for, and make payment of the purchase price for, the Underwritten Securities and the Option Securities, if any, which it has agreed to purchase. The Representatives, individually and not as representatives of the Underwriters, may (but shall not be obligated to) make payment of the purchase price for the Underwritten Securities or the Option Securities, if any, to be purchased by any Underwriter whose funds have not been received by the Closing Time or the relevant Date of Delivery, as the case may be, but any such payment shall not relieve such Underwriter from its obligations hereunder. The certificates for the Initial Securities and the Option Securities, if any, will be made available for examination and packaging by the Representatives not later than 10:00 A.M. on the last business day prior to the Closing Time or the relevant Date of Delivery, as the case may be, in New York, New York.

If authorized by the applicable Terms Agreement, the Underwriters named therein may solicit offers to purchase Underwritten Securities from the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, pursuant to delayed delivery contracts (“Delayed Delivery Contracts”) substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto with such changes therein as the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, may approve. As compensation for arranging Delayed Delivery Contracts, the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will pay to the Representatives at Closing Time, for the respective accounts of the Underwriters, a fee equal to that percentage of the amount of Underwritten Securities for which Delayed Delivery contracts are made at the applicable Closing Time as is specified in the applicable Terms Agreement. Any Delayed Delivery Contracts are to be with institutional investors of the types described in the Prospectus. At the applicable Closing Time, the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will enter into Delayed Delivery Contracts (for not less than the minimum amount of Underwritten Securities per Delayed Delivery Contract specified in the applicable Terms Agreement) with all purchasers proposed by the Underwriters and previously approved by the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, as provided below, but not for an aggregate principal amount of Underwritten Securities in excess of that specified in the applicable Terms Agreement. The Underwriters will not have any responsibility for the validity or performance of Delayed Delivery Contracts.

The Representatives shall submit to the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, at least three business days prior to the applicable Closing Time, the names of any institutional investors with which it is proposed that the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will enter into Delayed Delivery Contracts and the amount of Underwritten Securities to be purchased by each of them, and the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will advise the Representatives at least two business days prior to the applicable Closing Time, of the names of the institutions with which the making of Delayed Delivery Contracts is approved by the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, and the amount of Underwritten Securities to be covered by each such Delayed Delivery Contract.

The amount of Underwritten Securities agreed to be purchased by the several Underwriters pursuant to the applicable Terms Agreement shall be reduced by the amount of Underwritten Securities covered by Delayed Delivery Contracts, as to each Underwriter as set forth in a written notice delivered by the Representatives to the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be; provided, however, that the total amount of Underwritten Securities to be purchased by all Underwriters shall be the total amount of Underwritten Securities covered by the applicable Terms Agreement, less the amount of Underwritten Securities covered by Delayed Delivery Contracts.

A-14

(a) In respect to each offering of Underwritten Securities, the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will furnish to the Underwriters named in the applicable Terms Agreement as many copies of the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus (including any Prospectus Supplement) as the Representatives shall reasonably request.

(b) If the Time of Sale Prospectus is being used to solicit offers to buy the Securities at a time when the Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers and any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances, not misleading, or if any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which the Time of Sale Prospectus conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement then on file, or if, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Prospectus to comply with applicable law, the Company or the Operating Partnership will prepare, file with the Commission and furnish, at their own expense, to the Underwriters and to any dealer upon request, either amendments or supplements to the Time of Sale Prospectus so that the statements in the Time of Sale Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances when delivered to a prospective purchaser, be misleading, or so that the Time of Sale Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will no longer conflict with the Registration Statement, or so that the Time of Sale Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will comply with applicable law.

(c) If, at the time the Prospectus Supplement was filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations, any information shall have been omitted therefrom in reliance upon Rule 430A or Rule 430B of the 1933 Act Regulations, then immediately following the execution of the Terms Agreement, the Company and the Operating Partnership will prepare, and file or transmit for filing with the Commission in accordance with such Rule 430A, 430B, and Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations, a Prospectus Supplement, or, if required by such Rule 430A or 430B, a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement (including amended Prospectuses), containing all information so omitted. The Company and the Operating Partnership will pay the registration fees for each offering of securities within the time period required by Rule 456(b)(1)(i) under the 1933 Act prior to the Closing Time. If required, the Company and the Operating Partnership will prepare and file or transmit for filing a Rule 462(b) Registration Statement not later than the date of execution of the Terms Agreement. If a Rule 462(b) Registration Statement is filed, the Company and the Operating Partnership shall make payment of, or arrange for payment of, the additional registration fee owing to the Commission required by Rule 111 of the 1933 Act Regulations.

(d) The Company and the Operating Partnership will notify the Representatives immediately, and confirm such notice in writing, of (i) the effectiveness of any amendment to the Registration Statement, (ii) the transmittal to the Commission for filing of any Prospectus Supplement or other supplement or amendment to the Prospectus to be filed pursuant to the 1933 Act, (iii) the receipt of any comments from the Commission regarding the Registration Statement or the documents incorporated therein by reference, (iv) any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or any Time of Sale Prospectus or for additional information, (v) the receipt by the Company or the Operating Partnership of any notice of objection of the Commission to the use of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) under the 1933

A-15

Act, and (vi) the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; and the Company and the Operating Partnership will make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any such stop order and, if any stop order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible moment.

(e) The Company and the Operating Partnership will deliver to the Representatives a copy of each proposed free writing prospectus to be prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Company and the Operating Partnership and will not use or refer to any proposed free writing prospectus that is reasonably objected to by the Underwriters.

(f) The Company and the Operating Partnership will not take any action that would result in an Underwriter, the Company or the Operating Partnership being required to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the 1933 Act a free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of the Underwriter that the Underwriter otherwise would not have been required to file thereunder.

(g) The Company and the Operating Partnership will deliver to the Representatives as soon as possible as many signed copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto (including exhibits filed therewith or incorporated by reference therein and documents incorporated by reference therein) as the Representatives may reasonably request and will also deliver to the Representatives as many conformed copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto (including documents incorporated by reference into the Prospectus) as the Representatives may reasonably request.

(h) If, during such period after the first date of the public offering of the Underwritten Securities as the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in the Rule 173(a) under the 0000 Xxx) is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales by an Underwriter or dealer, any event shall occur as a result of which it is necessary, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, to amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to make the Prospectus not misleading in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the 0000 Xxx) is delivered to a purchaser, the Company and the Operating Partnership will forthwith amend or supplement the Prospectus (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Underwriters) so that, as so amended or supplemented, the Prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it ( or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the 0000 Xxx) is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, and the Company and the Operating Partnership will furnish to the Underwriters a reasonable number of copies of such amendment or supplement.

(d) At the time of the execution of the applicable Terms Agreement, the Representatives shall have received from KPMG LLP a letter dated such date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives, to the effect that: (i) they are independent public accountants with respect to the Company and the Operating Partnership as required by the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations; (ii) it is their opinion that the financial statements and supporting schedules included in the Registration Statement, or incorporated by reference therein, and covered by their opinions therein comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations and the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations; (iii) based upon limited procedures set forth in detail in such letter, including a reading of the latest available interim financial statements of the Company and the Operating Partnership, a reading of the minute books of the Company and the Operating Partnership, inquiries of officials of the Company and the Operating Partnership responsible for financial and accounting matters and such other inquiries and procedures as may be specified in such letter, nothing has come to their attention which causes them to believe that (A) the unaudited financial statements of the Company and the Operating Partnership included in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus or incorporated by reference therein, do not comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations and the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations, or material modifications are required for them to be presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, (B) the operating data and balance sheet data set forth in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus under the caption “Selected Consolidated Financial Data,” if any, were not determined on a basis substantially consistent with that used in determining the corresponding amounts in the audited financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, (C) the pro forma financial information included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus was not determined on a basis substantially consistent with that of the audited financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or (D) at a specified date not more than three days prior to the date of the applicable Terms Agreement, there has been any change in the capital stock or the number of partnership interests of the Company, the Operating Partnership or their subsidiaries, as the case may be, or any increase in the debt of the Company, the Operating Partnership or their subsidiaries or any decrease in the net assets of the Company, the Operating Partnership or their subsidiaries, as compared with the amounts shown in the most recent consolidated balance sheet of the Company, the Operating Partnership and their subsidiaries, included in the Registration Statement or incorporated by reference therein, or, during the period from the date of the most recent consolidated statement of operations included in the Registration Statement or incorporated by reference therein to a specified date not more than three days prior to the date of the applicable Terms Agreement, there were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, in revenues, net income or funds from operations of the Company, the Operating Partnership and their subsidiaries, except in all instances for changes, increases or decreases which the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus disclose have

A-21

occurred or may occur; and (iv) in addition to the audit referred to in their opinions and the limited procedures referred to in clause (iii) above, they have carried out certain specified procedures, not constituting an audit, with respect to certain amounts, percentages and financial information which are included in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus and which are specified by the Representatives, and have found such amounts, percentages and financial information to be in agreement with the relevant accounting, financial and other records of the Company, the Operating Partnership and their subsidiaries identified in such letter.

(e) At Closing Time, the Representatives shall have received from KPMG LLP a letter, dated the Closing Time, to the effect that they reaffirm the statements made in the letter furnished pursuant to subsection (d) of this Section, except that the “specified date” referred to shall be a date not more than three days prior to Closing Time.

(f) At Closing Time, the Underwritten Securities, if such Underwritten Securities are Debt Securities, shall be rated investment grade by one or more nationally recognized statistical rating organizations and the Operating Partnership shall have delivered to the Representatives a letter, dated the Closing Time, from each such rating organization, or other evidence satisfactory to the Representatives, confirming that such Underwritten Securities have such ratings; and since the date of this Agreement, there shall not have occurred a downgrading in the rating assigned to such Underwritten Securities at Closing Time (as provided on the respective Term Sheet) or any of the Operating Partnership’s other debt securities by any nationally recognized securities rating organization, and no such securities rating organization shall have publicly announced that it has under surveillance or review, with possible negative implications, its rating of such Underwritten Securities or any of the Operating Partnership’s other debt securities.

(g) At Closing Time and at each Date of Delivery, if any, counsel for the Underwriters shall have been furnished with such documents and opinions as they may require for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon the issuance and sale of the applicable Underwritten Securities as contemplated herein, or in order to evidence the accuracy of any of the representations or warranties, or the fulfillment of any of the conditions, herein contained; and all proceedings taken by the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, in connection with the issuance and sale of the applicable Underwritten Securities as herein contemplated shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters.

(h) In the event that the Underwriters exercise their option provided in Section 2(b) hereof to purchase all or any portion of the Option Securities, the representations and warranties of the Company and the Operating Partnership contained herein and the statements in any certificates furnished by the Company and the Operating Partnership hereunder shall be true and correct as of each Date of Delivery and, at the relevant Date of Delivery, the Representatives shall have received:

SECTION 6. Indemnification.

(b) Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership agrees, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, their respective directors and officers, and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act and each affiliate of any Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under the 1933 Act as follows:

(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim), as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any issuer free writing prospectus, any Issuer Information, as defined in Rule 433, used or referred to in any free writing prospectus or used or referred to by an Underwriter, or Prospectus, preliminary prospectus supplement, supplement to the Time of Sale Prospectus, supplement to the free writing prospectus or Prospectus Supplement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or

A-23

the Operating Partnership by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any preliminary prospectus, any Time of Sale Prospectus, any free writing prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto);

(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever for which indemnification is provided under subsection (i) above if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the indemnifying party; and

(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including, subject to Section 6(c) hereof, the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever for which indemnification is provided under subsection (i) above, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above.

(c) Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Operating Partnership, their respective directors and officers, and each person, if any, who controls the Company and the Operating Partnership within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, to the same extent as the indemnity contained in subsection (a) of this Section, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any preliminary prospectus, Time of Sale Prospectus, any other free writing prospectus, or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or the Operating Partnership by such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or such preliminary prospectus, Time of Sale Prospectus, any other free writing prospectus, or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto).

(d) Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action. If it so elects within a reasonable time after receipt of such notice, an indemnifying party, jointly with any other indemnifying parties receiving such notice, may assume the defense of such action with counsel chosen by it and reasonably approved by the indemnified parties defendant in such action; provided, however, that if the defendants (including any impleaded parties) in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties and such indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to defend such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. If an indemnifying party assumes the defense of such action, the indemnifying parties shall not be liable for any fees and expenses of counsel for the indemnified parties incurred thereafter in connection with such action, unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that in connection with such action the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel) (in addition to local counsel) in any one action or separate

A-24

but substantially similar actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, (ii) the indemnifying party does not promptly retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party will not be liable for the costs and expenses of any settlement of such action effected by such indemnified party without the consent of the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 6 or Section 7 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim 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.

(e) 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 required by this Section 6, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 6(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

SECTION 7. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 6 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, from the offering of the Underwritten Securities pursuant to the applicable Terms Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and of the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, 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 Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Underwritten Securities pursuant to the applicable Terms Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of such Underwritten Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total underwriting discount received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate initial public offering price of such Underwritten Securities as set forth on such cover.

The relative fault of the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such 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 Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

A-25

The Company, the Operating Partnership and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 7. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 7 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Underwritten Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter 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 0000 Xxx) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

For purposes of this Section 7, each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Operating Partnership within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to the number of Initial Underwritten Securities set forth opposite their respective names in the applicable Terms Agreement and not joint.

SECTION 8. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or the applicable Terms Agreement, or contained in certificates of the officers of the Company or the Operating Partnership submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of the applicable Terms Agreement, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or controlling person, or by or on behalf of the Company or the Operating Partnership and shall survive delivery of the Underwritten Securities to the Underwriters.

SECTION 9. Termination of Agreement.

(b) The Representatives may terminate the applicable Terms Agreement, by notice to the Company, at any time at or prior to Closing Time (i) if there has been, since the date of such Terms Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Time of Sale Prospectus or Prospectus, any material adverse change, affecting the Duke Group as a whole, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, assets, business affairs or business prospects of any entity belonging to the Duke Group or of any Property, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business; or (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States, or any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic condition, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the reasonable judgement of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to (x) commence or continue the offering of Underwritten Securities to the public, or (y) enforce contracts for the sale of the Underwritten Securities; or (iii) if trading in the

A-26

Common Stock has been suspended by the Commission or if trading generally on either the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange has been suspended, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities have been required, by either of said Exchanges or by order of the Commission or any other governmental authority, or if a banking moratorium has been declared by either Federal, New York or Indiana authorities, or if there has occurred a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States; (iv) if Preferred Stock is being offered and the rating assigned by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization to any preferred shares of the Company as of the date of the applicable Terms Agreement shall have been lowered since such date or if any such rating organization shall have publicly announced that it has placed any preferred shares or debt securities of the Company on what is commonly termed a “watch list” for possible downgrading; (v) if the rating assigned by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization to any long-term debt securities of the Operating Partnership as of the date of the applicable Terms Agreement shall have been lowered since such date or if any such rating organization shall have publicly announced that it has placed any long-term debt securities of the Operating Partnership on what is commonly termed a “watch list” for possible downgrading or, (vi) there has been a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States. As used in this Section 9(a), the term “Prospectus” means the Prospectus in the form first used to confirm sales of the Underwritten Securities.

(c) In the event of any such termination, in respect to such terminated Terms Agreement, (x) the covenants set forth in Section 3 with respect to any offering of Underwritten Securities shall remain in effect so long as any Underwriter owns any such Underwritten Securities purchased from the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, pursuant to the applicable Terms Agreement and (y) the covenant set forth in Section 3(i) hereof, the provisions of Section 4 hereof, the indemnity and contribution agreements set forth in Sections 6 and 7 hereof, and the provisions of Sections 8 and 13 hereof shall remain in effect.

SECTION 10. Default by One or More of the Underwriters. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail at Closing Time to purchase the Underwritten Securities which it or they are obligated to purchase under the applicable Terms Agreement (the “Defaulted Securities”), the Representatives shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth. If, however, the Representatives shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24-hour period, then:

(a) if the number of Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the Underwritten Securities to be purchased pursuant to such Terms Agreement, each of the non-defaulting Underwriters named in such Terms Agreement shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all non-defaulting Underwriters, or

(b) if the number of Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the Underwritten Securities to be purchased pursuant to such Terms Agreement, the applicable Terms Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter.

No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default under this Agreement and the applicable Terms Agreement.

In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of the applicable Terms Agreement, each of the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to postpone Closing Time for

A-27

a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements.

SECTION 11. Covenant of the Underwriters. Each Underwriter severally covenants with the Company not to take any action that would result in the Company being required to file with the Commission under Rule 433(d) a free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter that otherwise would not be required to be filed by the Company thereunder, but for the action of the Underwriter.

SECTION 12. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication. Notices to the Underwriters shall be directed to the Representatives at the address specified in the applicable Terms Agreement; notices to the Company and the Operating Partnership shall be directed to any of them at 000 Xxxx 00^xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, 00000, attention of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx.

SECTION 13. Entire Agreement. (a) This Agreement and the Terms 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 Underwritten Securities, represents the entire agreement between the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Underwriters with respect to the preparation of any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, the conduct of the offering, and the purchase and sale of the Underwritten Securities. Each of the Underwriting Agreement and the related Terms Agreement, dated as of November 2, 2004, by and between the Company, the Operating Partnership and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. Incorporated and UBS Securities LLC, as Representatives for the several underwriters parties thereto, is hereby terminated, except with respect to those provisions therein that, by their terms, expressly survive the termination of those agreements.

(b) Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership acknowledges that in connection with the offering of the Underwritten Securities: (i) the Underwriters 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 Underwriters owe the Company and the Operating Partnership only those duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement or the Terms Agreement and prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement), if any, and (iii) the Underwriters may have interests that differ from those of the Company and the Operating Partnership. The Company and the Operating Partnership waives to the full extent permitted by applicable law any claims it may have against the Underwriters arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the offering of the Underwritten Securities.

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

SECTION 15. 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.

SECTION 16. Parties. This Agreement and the applicable Terms Agreement shall each inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement or the applicable Terms Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than those referred to in Sections 6 and 7 and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or the applicable Terms Agreement or any provision herein or therein contained. This Agreement and the

A-28

applicable Terms Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof and thereof are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and thereto and their respective successors, and said controlling persons and officers and directors and their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Underwritten Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

SECTION 17. Governing Law and Time. This Agreement and the Terms Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed in said State. Specified times of day refer to New York City time.

A-29

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, please sign and return to the Company an executed counterpart of the applicable Terms Agreement, whereupon this instrument, along with the applicable Terms Agreement, will become a binding agreement among the Underwriters, the Company and the Operating Partnership in accordance with their terms.

Exhibit C

Form of Opinion of Xxxxxx & Bird LLP

(i) The Company is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Indiana. The Company has the corporate power and authority to conduct its business and own, lease and operate its properties as described in the Time of Sale Prospectus and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

(ii) The Operating Partnership is a limited partnership validly existing under the laws of the State of Indiana. The Operating Partnership has the partnership power and authority to conduct its business and own, lease and operate its properties as described in the Time of Sale Prospectus and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

(iii) Each of Duke Acquisition, Inc., Duke Realty Construction, Inc. and Duke Construction Limited Partnership (the “Significant Subsidiaries”) is validly existing and in good standing as a corporation or partnership under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, with corporate or partnership power and authority to conduct its respective business and own, lease and operate its properties as described in the Time of Sale Prospectus. Duke Realty Ohio has the partnership power to conduct its business and own, lease and operate its properties as described in the Time of Sale Prospectus.

(iv) Each of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Significant Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign partnership or corporation and is in good standing to do business in the jurisdictions set forth in a schedule to such counsel’s opinion letter, which jurisdictions, the Company has advised such counsel, are the only jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified could have a material adverse effect on the Duke Group taken as a whole.

(v) If the applicable Underwritten Securities are issued by the Company, and if the Time of Sale Prospectus contains the caption “Capitalization,” the authorized capital stock of the Company is as set forth in the column entitled “Historical” under such caption. To our knowledge, all the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock have been duly authorized and are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

(vi) To our knowledge, all of the issued and outstanding Units of the Operating Partnership held by the Company have been duly authorized and, assuming payment by the Company to the Operating Partnership of the net proceeds of the offering contemplated by the Time of Sale Prospectus (for the Operating Partnership’s newly designated and issued series of Units), are validly issued, fully paid and, except as provided under Indiana Code § 23-16-7-8 and except for general partner interests, non-assessable.

C-1

(vii) To our knowledge, all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock and partnership interests, as the case may be, of each of the Significant Subsidiaries have been validly issued and fully paid.

(viii) The applicable Underwritten Securities, if such Underwritten Securities are Common Stock, Preferred Stock or Depositary Shares, have been duly authorized by the Company and, when issued and delivered by the Company pursuant to the Terms Agreement (including this Agreement, which is made a part thereof), and, if applicable, a deposit agreement, against payment of the consideration for such Underwritten Securities (or, in the case of Preferred Stock, for the related depositary shares, as applicable) specified in the Terms Agreement or any Delayed Delivery Contract, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not be subject to any preemptive or other similar rights under any provision of the Indiana Business Corporation Law or under the Third Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company. The terms of the applicable Underwritten Securities conform in all material respects to all statements and descriptions thereof contained in the Time of Sale Prospectus. The form of stock or depositary certificate to be used to evidence the applicable Underwritten Securities is in the form required by the Indiana Business Corporation Law, the Third Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company and the bylaws of the Company. In the case of Preferred Stock, the form of Depositary Share, as applicable, is in the form required under the appropriate deposit agreement.

(ix) The applicable Underwritten Securities, if such Underwritten Securities are Debt Securities, are in the form contemplated in the Indenture, have been duly authorized by the Operating Partnership and, when executed, authenticated, issued and delivered in the manner provided for in the Terms Agreement (including this Agreement, which is made a part thereof), and, if applicable, a deposit agreement, against payment of the consideration therefor specified in the applicable Terms Agreement or any Delayed Delivery Contract, such Debt Securities will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Operating Partnership entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and such Debt Securities will be enforceable against the Operating Partnership in accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability may be (1) limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally and (2) subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). The terms of the applicable Underwritten Securities conform in all material respects to all statements and descriptions related thereto in the Prospectus.

(x) Each of this Agreement, the applicable Terms Agreement and the Delayed Delivery Contracts, if any, were duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the Operating Partnership, as applicable, and the Company and the Operating Partnership have the power and authority to perform their obligations hereunder and thereunder.

(xi) The Indenture has been duly qualified under the 1939 Act and has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the Operating Partnership, and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Trustee, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Operating Partnership,

C-2

enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be (1) limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally and (2) subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). The Indenture conforms in all material respects to the descriptions thereof contained in the Prospectus.

(xii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the applicable Terms Agreement, any Indenture and the Underwritten Securities, the performance of the obligations set forth herein or therein, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby by the Company and the Operating Partnership (if a party thereto) do not, and if the Company and the Operating Partnership were now to perform its obligations under such agreements would not, result in any: (a) violation of the Company’s articles of incorporation or bylaws or the Operating Partnership’s certificate of limited partnership or partnership agreement or the similar governing instruments of the Significant Subsidiaries; (b) violation of any existing federal or state constitution, statute, regulation, rule, order, or law to which, to our knowledge, the Company, the Operating Partnership, the Significant Subsidiaries or their respective assets are subject (except for state or foreign securities laws, as to which such counsel need express no opinion); (c) breach of or default under any material written agreements filed as exhibits pursuant to Item 10 of Rule 601 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 or to any of the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K since the date of such Annual Report, to which the Company and/or the Operating Partnership is a party or by which the Company, the Operating Partnership, the Significant Subsidiaries or their respective assets are bound and which such counsel have been advised are the only material agreements to which the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Significant Subsidiaries are party; (d) creation of imposition of a contractual lien or security interest in, on or against the Company’s or the Operating Partnership’s or the Significant Subsidiaries’ assets under any material written agreements specified in clause (c) above; or (e) violation of any judicial or administrative decree, writ, judgment or order to which, to such counsel’s knowledge, the Company, the Operating Partnership, the Significant Subsidiaries or their respective assets are subject..

(xiii) Commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1999, the Company has been organized, and has operated, in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation of the Company as a real estate investment trust under the Code, and the present and proposed method of operation of the Company will permit the Company to continue to so qualify.

(xiv) None of the Company, the Operating Partnership, the Significant Subsidiaries or DRO is required to be registered under the 1940 Act or is a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” of a “registered holding company” as defined in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.

(xv) No authorization, approval, consent or order of any court or governmental authority or agency or, to the knowledge of such counsel, any other

C-3

entity is required to be made or obtained by the Company or the Operating Partnership in connection with the offering, issuance or sale of the applicable Underwritten Securities to the Underwriters hereunder, except such as may be required (a) under the 1933 Act or the 1933 Act Regulations or the 1939 Act or the 1939 Act Regulations or state or foreign securities laws, (b) under real estate syndication laws, (c) by the New York Stock Exchange, and except for authorizations, approvals, consents or orders that have been received prior to the date of such opinion.

(xvii) The documents (other than the financial statements and supporting schedules and other financial and statistical data included therein, as to which such counsel need express no opinion) incorporated by reference in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, at the time they were filed with the Commission, complied as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations. The Registration Statement is effective under the 1933 Act and, to the knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the 1933 Act or proceedings therefor initiated or threatened by the Commission.

(xviii) At the time the Registration Statement became effective and at each of the Representation Dates, the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein (and other than the financial statements and supporting schedules and other financial and statistical data included therein, as to which such counsel need express no opinion), and each post-effective amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement and Prospectus, excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein (and other than the financial statements and supporting schedules and other financial data included therein, as to which such counsel need express no opinion), complied as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations.

(xix) To counsel’s knowledge, there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending or threatened which are required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, other than those disclosed therein.

C-4

(xxi) To the knowledge of such counsel, there are no statutes, contracts, indentures, mortgages, loan agreements, notes, leases or other instruments which are required to be described or referred to in the Registration Statement or to be filed as exhibits thereto by the 1933 Act Regulations other than those described or referred to therein or filed as exhibits thereto, the descriptions thereof or references thereto are materially correct, and, to the knowledge of such counsel, no material default by the Company, the Operating Partnership or any Significant Subsidiary or DRO exists in the due performance or observance of any material obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other instrument so described, referred to or filed.

(xxii) To the knowledge of such counsel, except as disclosed in the Prospectus and except for persons who received Units in connection with transactions with the Operating Partnership, there are no persons with registration or other similar rights to have any securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement or otherwise registered by the Company or the Operating Partnership under the 1933 Act.

(xxiii) The Company and/or the Operating Partnership, as applicable, satisfy all conditions and requirements for filing the Registration Statement on Form S-3 under the 1933 Act and 1933 Act Regulations as set forth in Form S-3.

Nothing has come to our attention that leads us to believe that (i) the Registration Statement (excluding the financial statements and supporting schedules and other financial and statistical data included or incorporated by reference therein, as to which we express no belief), at the date of the Terms Agreement, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) the Base Prospectus (excluding the financial statements and supporting schedules and other financial and statistical data included or incorporated by reference therein, as to which we express no belief), as of the Applicable Time or the Closing Time, included or includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or (iii) the Prospectus or any supplement thereto (excluding the financial statements and supporting schedules and other financial and statistical data included or incorporated by reference therein, as to which we express no belief), at its date or at the Closing Time, included or includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
