ARTICLE II

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON THE CAPITAL STOCK

OF THE CONSTITUENT CORPORATIONS

Section 2.1 Effect on Capital Stock.

(a) By virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any outstanding capital stock of the Company:

(i) Merger. At the Effective Time, (a) each issued and outstanding common share, no par value, of the Company (including any fractional shares) (the “Company Common Shares”) together with the related Series A Preferred Share, no par value, of the Company (including any fractional shares) (the “Company Series A Shares,” and together with the Company Common Shares, the “Company Units”) (other than the Dissenting Shares or any Company Shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(iii)) shall be converted into the right to receive (x) 0.522 (the “Unit Exchange Ratio”) Parent Common Shares (the “Unit Stock Consideration”) and (y) $1.00 in cash (the “Per Unit Cash Consideration”), and (b) each issued and outstanding Series B Convertible Preferred Share, no par value, of the Company (the “Company Series B Shares” and together with the Company Units, the “Company Shares”) shall be converted into the right to receive (x) a number of Parent Common Shares equal to (0) 00.00000 multiplied by (2) the Unit Exchange Ratio (the “Series B Stock Consideration”, and together with the Unit Stock Consideration, the “Stock Consideration”) and (y) an amount equal to 12.11423 multiplied by $1.00 in cash (the “Series B Cash Consideration”, and together with the Per Unit Cash Consideration, the “Cash Consideration”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Merger Consideration” shall mean the aggregate of the Stock Consideration and the Cash Consideration.

(ii) Fractional Shares. No fractional Parent Common Shares shall be issued with respect to the Merger. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of Company Shares converted pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a Parent Common Share shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash, without interest, in an amount equal to such fractional part of a Parent Common Share multiplied by the VWAP of Parent Common Shares (the “Fractional Share Consideration”). For purposes of this Agreement “VWAP of Parent Common Shares” shall mean the volume weighted average price of Parent Common Shares for the ten (10) day trading period ending on the third trading day immediately preceding the Closing Date, as reported by Bloomberg.

(iii) Cancellation of Shares. Each Company Share (including any fractional Company Share), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that is owned by Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

-3-

(iv) All Company Shares converted pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i), when so converted, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration (including the Fractional Share Consideration) and any dividends or other distributions to which holders may be entitled in accordance with Section 2.2(e), without interest.

(b) Surviving Corporation. By virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each common share, no par value, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding as a duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable common share, no par value, of the Surviving Corporation to the Merger, so that thereafter Parent will be the sole and exclusive owner of the outstanding capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(c) Stock Options. The Company shall take all requisite action so that at the Effective Time, each outstanding option issued by the Company pursuant to any of the Company Stock Incentive Plans (a “Company Stock Option”) whether or not exercisable at the Effective Time, will be assumed by Parent by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof. Subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Company Stock Incentive Plan including any applicable award agreement evidencing such Company Stock Option, from and after the Effective Time, each Company Stock Option so assumed by Parent under this Agreement will otherwise continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (including vesting schedule) as were applicable to the corresponding Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time as set forth in the applicable Company Stock Incentive Plan (including any applicable award agreement, evidencing such Company Stock Option) immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that, from and after the Effective Time, (A) each Company Stock Option, when exercisable, will be exercisable for that number of whole Parent Common Shares equal to the product of the number of Company Common Shares that were subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Equity Exchange Factor, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Parent Common Shares and (B) the per share exercise price for the Parent Common Shares issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Stock Option will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price of each Company Common Share subject to such assumed Company Stock Option by the Equity Exchange Factor, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conversion of the Company Stock Options into options to purchase Parent Common Shares is intended to conform with and shall be made in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D).

(d) Certain Adjustments.

(i) If, before the Effective Time (and as permitted by ARTICLE IV), the outstanding Company Shares shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class of shares by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, combination or exchange of shares, or any similar event shall have occurred, then the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately and proportionately adjusted to provide to the holders of Company Shares the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

-4-

(ii) If, before the Effective Time (and as permitted by ARTICLE IV), the outstanding Parent Common Shares shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class of shares by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, combination or exchange of shares, or any similar event shall have occurred, then the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately and proportionately adjusted to provide to the holders of Company Shares the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

Section 2.2 Exchange Procedures.

(a) Exchange Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint a bank or trust company, which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company, to act as paying agent and exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for the exchange of the issued and outstanding Company Shares for the Merger Consideration.

(b) Exchange Fund. At or before the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit or cause Merger Sub to deposit, with the Exchange Agent (i) evidence of Parent Common Shares in book-entry form issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) equal to the aggregate Stock Consideration (excluding any Fractional Share Consideration), and (ii) cash in immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to pay the Cash Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration, and any dividends or distributions to which holders of Company Shares may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e) (such evidence of book-entry Parent Common Shares and cash amounts, the “Exchange Fund”), in each case for the benefit of the holders of Company Shares. Promptly after the Closing Date in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.2(c), Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, cause the Exchange Agent to make, and the Exchange Agent shall make, delivery of the Merger Consideration, including payment of the Fractional Share Consideration, and any dividends or distributions to which holders of Company Shares may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e), out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose that is not expressly provided for in this Agreement.

(i) As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time and in no event later than two Business Days following the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of outstanding Company Shares that were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i): (A) a letter of transmittal (“Letter of Transmittal”), in customary form and with such other provisions as reasonably agreed upon by the Company and Parent prior to the Effective Time, which shall specify, among other things, that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to Company Shares represented by certificate (“Certificates”) or Company Shares registered in the transfer books of the Company in book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or transfer of any Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent; and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or the transfer of Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration.

-5-

(ii) Upon (A) surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or transfer of any Book-Entry Share to the Exchange Agent, together with a properly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal or (B) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of transfer of a Book-Entry Share, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration for each Company Share formerly represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Share pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE II plus any Fractional Share Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.1(a)(ii) and any amounts that such holder has the right to receive in respect of dividends or distributions to which holders of Company Shares may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e), by mail or by wire transfer after the Exchange Agent’s receipt of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or “agent’s message” or other evidence, and the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) so surrendered or the Book-Entry Share so transferred, as applicable, shall be forthwith cancelled. The Exchange Agent shall accept such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) and Book-Entry Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Exchange Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with customary exchange practices. Until surrendered or transferred as contemplated by this Section 2.2, each Certificate and Book-Entry Share shall be deemed, at any time after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive, upon such surrender, the Merger Consideration as contemplated by this ARTICLE II. No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares on the Merger Consideration or the Fractional Share Consideration payable upon the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and any dividends or distributions to which such holder may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e).

(iii) In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, it shall be a condition of payment that any Certificate or Book-Entry Share surrendered or transferred in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.2 shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer, and that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer Taxes and other Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or Book-Entry Share transferred, or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent that such Tax either has been paid or is not applicable.

-6-

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any interest and income received with respect thereto and any Fractional Share Consideration and any applicable dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Common Shares) that remains undistributed to the former holders of Company Shares for twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any former holders of Company Shares prior to the Merger who have not theretofore complied with this ARTICLE II shall thereafter look only to Parent and the Surviving Corporation (and only as general creditors thereof) for payment of the applicable Merger Consideration, subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat and other similar Laws.

(e) No Further Ownership Rights in Capital Stock of the Company. The Merger Consideration (including the Fractional Share Consideration) issued upon exchange of the Company Shares in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE II shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Company Shares, subject, however, to the obligation of the Surviving Corporation to pay, without interest and not more than 60 days following the Effective Time, any dividends or make any other distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time that may have been declared or made by the Company on the Company Shares in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or prior to the date of this Agreement and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time and have not been paid prior to such exchange, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of the Company Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(f) No Liability. None of the Company, Merger Sub, Parent or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(g) Withholding Rights. Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Company Shares such amounts as Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Company Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be.

Section 2.3 Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, holders of Company Shares who have properly exercised, perfected and not subsequently withdrawn or lost their appraisal rights with respect thereto in accordance with Article 15 of the VSCA (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not have any of such Dissenting Shares converted into the right to receive, or become exchangeable for, the Merger Consideration. The holders of such Dissenting Shares shall be entitled to obtain payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Article 15 of the VSCA unless and until such holders fail to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost their dissenters’ rights under Article 15 of the VSCA. If, after the Effective Time, any such holder fails to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such right, each of such holder’s Dissenting Shares shall thereupon be treated as if it had been converted into the right to receive, and become exchangeable for, at the Effective Time, the Merger Consideration, as provided in Section 2.1(a)(i) hereof. Parent shall be responsible for all payments to be made under Article 15 of the VSCA in respect of Dissenting Shares.

-7-

Section 2.4 Further Assurances. If, at any time before or after the Effective Time, any of the parties hereto reasonably believes or is advised that any further instruments, deeds, assignments or assurances are reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the Merger or to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement at or after the Effective Time, then the Company, Parent, Merger Sub and the Surviving Corporation and their respective officers and directors shall execute and deliver all such proper instruments, deeds, assignments or assurances and do all other things reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the Merger and to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar Laws relating to creditors’ rights and general principles of equity, whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity.

(iii) No material consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any federal, state or local government or any court, administrative or regulatory agency or commission, governmental arbitrator or other governmental authority, instrumentality or agency, domestic or foreign (a “Governmental Entity”), is required by or with respect to the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company or the consummation by it of any of the transactions contemplated hereby, except for (A) the filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) of (1) the preliminary and definitive Joint Proxy Statement relating to the Company Shareholder Meeting for the Company Shareholder Approval and (2) such reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as may be required in connection with this Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (B) the filing of Articles of Merger with the State Corporation Commission of the Commonwealth of Virginia, (C) such filings with Governmental Entities to satisfy the applicable requirements of the Laws of states in which the Company and any Subsidiary of the Company are qualified or licensed to do business, as set forth on Schedule 3.1(d)(iii) of the Company Disclosure Letter and (D) such other consents, approvals, orders, authorizations, registrations, declarations and filings (1) as are set forth on Schedule 3.1(d)(iii) of the Company Disclosure Letter or (2) which, if not obtained or made, would not reasonably be expected to prevent or delay in any material respect the consummation of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby or otherwise prevent the Company from performing its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect.

(e) SEC Documents; Financial Statements.

(i) The Company has filed with the SEC all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by the Company since January 1, 2014 (as amended through the date hereof, the “Company SEC Documents”). All of the Company SEC Documents (other than preliminary material), as of their respective filing dates, were prepared in all material respects in accordance with, and complied in all material respects with, all applicable requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder applicable to such Company SEC Documents. None of the Company SEC Documents, at the time of filing, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except to the extent such statements have been modified or superseded by Company SEC Documents later filed by the Company. The Company does not have any outstanding and unresolved comments from the SEC with respect to any of the Company SEC Documents. No Subsidiary of the Company is subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act or is otherwise required to file any forms, reports, schedules, statements or other documents with the SEC, any foreign Governmental Entity that performs a similar function to that of the SEC or any securities exchange or quotation service. The Company has made available to Parent copies of all material correspondence between the SEC, on the one hand, and the Company and any of the Subsidiaries of the Company, on the other hand, since January 1, 2014 through the date of this Agreement. At all applicable times, the Company has complied in all material respects with the applicable certification requirements of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 and rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as amended from time to time (the “Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act”).

-12-

(ii) The audited consolidated financial statements and unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries included or incorporated by reference in the Company SEC Documents (including, in each case, any notes thereto) complied, as of their respective dates of filing with the SEC, in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto (including, without limitation, Regulation S-X), were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) (except, in the case of unaudited interim financial statements, as permitted by Forms 10-Q or 8-K of the SEC) applied on a consistent basis during the periods and at the dates involved (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto) and fairly present the consolidated financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole as of the dates thereof and consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited interim financial statements, to the absence of notes and normal year-end adjustments). The books of account and other financial records of the Company and its Subsidiaries are accurately reflected in all material respects in the financial statements included in the Company SEC Documents. The Company has no Subsidiary which is not consolidated for accounting purposes.

(iii) There are no material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting that are reasonably likely to adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data. The Company has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated Subsidiaries, is made known to its principal executive officer and principal financial officer. The Company has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and, to the extent required by applicable Law, presented in any applicable Company SEC Documents that is a report on Form 10-K or Form 10-Q, or any amendment thereto, its conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by such report or amendment based on such evaluation. To the Company’s Knowledge, such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer to information required to be included in the Company’s periodic reports required under the Exchange Act. Since the enactment of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary of the Company has made any prohibited loans to any director or executive officer of the Company (as defined in Rule 3b-7 under the Exchange Act).

(iv) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to, or has any commitment to become a party to, any joint venture, off-balance sheet partnership or any similar Contract (including any Contract or arrangement relating to any transaction or relationship between or among the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any unconsolidated Affiliate, including any structured finance, special purpose or limited purpose entity or Person, on the other hand), or any “off-balance sheet arrangements” (as defined in Item 303(a) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act), where the result, purpose or effect of such Contract is to avoid disclosure of any material transaction involving, or material liabilities of, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ published financial statements or any of the Company SEC Documents.

-13-

(f) Absence of Certain Changes or Events. Except as disclosed in the Company SEC Documents, since December 31, 2015 (the “Financial Statement Date”) and through the date of this Agreement, (i) the Company and its Subsidiaries have conducted their respective businesses only in the ordinary course consistent with past practices and there has not been a Company Material Adverse Effect, nor has there been any occurrence or circumstance that, individually or in the aggregate, has had, or would with the passage of time reasonably be expected to result in, a Company Material Adverse Effect, and (ii) none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries have taken any action that, if taken after the date hereof, would be in violation of Section 4.1.

(g) Litigation. There is no pending or, to the Knowledge of the Company, threatened material Legal Action or material investigation pending by a Governmental Entity against or affecting (i) the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company or any asset of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company or (ii) any director, officer or employee of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company or other Person for whom the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company may be liable, nor is there any judgment, decree, injunction, rule or order of any Governmental Entity or arbitrator outstanding against the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company. Other than pursuant to the Company Organizational Documents, no Contract between the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, on the one hand, and any current or former director, officer, employee or shareholder (or equivalent interest holder) of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, on the other hand, exists that provides for indemnification.

(h) Taxes.

-14-

(i) The Company and each Subsidiary of the Company have timely filed all material Tax Returns and reports required to be filed by it (after giving effect to any filing extension properly granted by a Governmental Entity having authority to do so). All such Tax Returns are true, correct and complete in all material respects. Neither the Company nor any other Person on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company has requested any extension of time within which to file any material Tax Return, which material Tax Return has not yet been filed. The Company and each Subsidiary of the Company have paid (or the Company has paid on their behalf), within the time and manner prescribed by Law, all material Taxes shown as due and payable on such Tax Returns. The most recent financial statements contained in the Company SEC Documents filed with the SEC prior to the date of this Agreement reflect an adequate reserve or accrued liabilities or expenses for all Taxes due and payable by the Company and its Subsidiaries as a group for all taxable periods and portions thereof through the date of such financial statements, except for failures to reflect adequate reserves that would not in the aggregate be material. The Company and its Subsidiaries (as a group) have established on their books and records (which may, but are not required to, be reflected only on the books and records of the Company) reserves or accrued liabilities or expenses that are adequate for the payment of all material Taxes for which the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company is liable but which are not yet due and payable. The Company has incurred no material liability for any Taxes under Sections 857(b), 860(c) or 4981 of the Code or Treasury Regulation Sections 1.337(d)-5, 1.337(d)-6 or 1.337(d)-7, including, without limitation, any Tax arising from a prohibited transaction described in Section 857(b)(6) of the Code and the excise tax on redetermined rents, redetermined deductions, redetermined TRS service income, and excess interest under Section 857(b)(7) of the Code; and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred any material liability for Taxes other than in the ordinary course of business and other than transfer or similar Taxes arising in connection with the sale of property. No event has occurred, and no condition or circumstances exists, which presents a material risk that any material Tax described in the preceding sentences will be imposed on the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company. No material deficiencies for Taxes have been asserted or assessed in writing by a Governmental Entity against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and no requests for waivers of the time to assess any such Taxes have been granted and remain in effect or are pending. No material written claim is pending or proposed by any Governmental Entity in any jurisdiction where the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company do not file Tax Returns that the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company is or may be subject to taxation by such jurisdiction. Copies of all material Tax Returns with respect to taxable years commencing on or after the taxable year ending December 31, 2010 have been delivered to or made available to Representatives of Parent. For purposes of this Agreement, “Taxes” shall mean all taxes, charges, fees, levies and other assessments, including income, gross receipts, excise, property, sales, withholding (including dividend withholding and withholding required pursuant to Sections 1445 and 1446 of the Code), social security, occupation, use, service, license, payroll, franchise, transfer and recording taxes, windfall or other profits, capital stock, employment, worker’s compensation, unemployment or compensation, estimated, excise, ad valorem, stamp, value added, capital gains, duty or custom taxes, fees, charges or assessments, imposed by the U.S. or any Governmental Entity, whether computed on a separate, consolidated, unitary, combined or any other basis, and similar charges of any kind, however denominated (together with any and all interest, penalties, additions to tax and other additional amounts imposed with respect thereto) imposed by any Governmental Entity and “Tax Return” shall mean any return, declaration, report, election, estimate, claim for refund, or information return or statement relating to Taxes, including any schedule or attachment thereto, and including any amendment thereof.

(ii) The Company (A) for all of its taxable years beginning with the Company’s taxable year ending December 31, 2011 through the most recent December 31, has been subject to taxation as a real estate investment trust under the Code within the meaning of Section 856 of the Code (“REIT”) and has satisfied the requirements to qualify as a REIT for such years, (B) has operated, and intends to continue to operate, in such a manner as to qualify as a REIT upon closing of the transactions contemplated hereby, and (C) has not taken or omitted to take any action which could reasonably be expected to result in a challenge by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) to its status as a REIT, and, to the Knowledge of the Company, no such challenge is pending or threatened in writing. Each Subsidiary of the Company that files Tax Returns as a partnership (or as a disregarded entity), for U.S. federal income tax purposes has, since inception, been classified for federal income tax purposes as a partnership (or as a disregarded entity) and not as a corporation or as an association taxable as a corporation, or a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704(b) of the Code that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Section 7704(a) of the Code. Each Subsidiary of the Company that is a corporation has been, since its formation, classified as a qualified REIT subsidiary under Section 856(i) of the Code (“Qualified REIT Subsidiary”), a taxable REIT subsidiary under Section 856(l) of the Code (“Taxable REIT Subsidiary”) or a REIT.

(iv) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary of the Company holds any asset the disposition of which, if occurring in a fully taxable transaction immediately following the Closing, would be subject to (or to rules similar to) Section 337(d) or 1374 of the Code or the regulations thereunder (assuming for this purpose that the “recognition period,” as defined in Section 1374, is in all cases 5 years) or to the “prohibited transactions” Tax under Section 857(b)(6), nor has it disposed of any such asset during its current taxable year.

(v) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary of the Company (A) is or has been at any time a member of an affiliated consolidated, combined or unitary group (other than a group the common parent of which is the Company or a directly or indirectly wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company) and (B) has any liability for the Taxes of any other person other than the Company and such Subsidiaries of the Company under Treasury Regulation § 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law), as a transferee or successor, by contract, or otherwise.

-16-

(vi) To the Knowledge of the Company, the Company is a “domestically-controlled qualified investment entity” within the meaning of Section 897(h)(4)(B) of the Code.

(ix) The Company does not have any earnings and profits attributable to the Company or any other corporation for any non-REIT year within the meaning of Section 857 of the Code.

(x) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary of the Company has made any payments, or is obligated to make any payments, or is a party to an agreement that could obligate it to make any payments that will not be deductible under Section 280G of the Code.

(xi) Neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries is or has been a party to any Tax allocation or sharing agreement or similar agreement or arrangement (other than any agreement or arrangement either solely between the Company and any Subsidiary of the Company or solely between or among any two or more Subsidiaries of the Company) pursuant to which it will have any obligation to make any payments after the Closing.

Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary of the Company has any current and outstanding liability under any Tax Protection Agreement, and no person has raised, or, to the Knowledge of the Company, threatened to raise, a material claim against the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company under any Tax Protection Agreement.

-17-

(xiv) To the Knowledge of the Company, all material amounts of Taxes that the Company or its Subsidiaries are required by Law to withhold or collect, including material Taxes required to have been withheld in connection with amounts paid or owing to any employee, independent contractor, creditor, shareholder or other third party and sales, gross receipts and use taxes, and withholding of Taxes pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445, 1446, 3402, and 1471 through 1474 of the Code or similar provisions under any foreign Laws, have been duly withheld or collected and, to the extent required, have been paid over to the proper Governmental Entities or, if not yet due, are held in separate bank accounts for such purpose. There are no material Encumbrances for Taxes upon the assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries except for statutory Liens for Taxes not yet due.

(xv) None of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has either been a “distributing corporation” or a “controlled corporation” in a distribution occurring during the last five (5) years in which the parties to such distribution treated the distribution as one to which Section 355 of the Code is applicable (within the meaning of Section 355(a)(1)(A) of the Code) in a distribution of stock intended to qualify for tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the Code (A) in the two (2) years prior to the date of this Agreement, or (B) in a distribution which could otherwise constitute part of a “plan” or “series of related transactions” (within the meaning of Section 355(e) of the Code) in conjunction with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(j) Opinion of Financial Advisor; No Brokers. The financial advisor identified on Schedule 3.1(j) of the Company Disclosure Letter has delivered its opinion, addressed to the Company Special Committee to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion and subject to the qualifications, assumptions and limitations set forth therein, the aggregate consideration to be received by the holders of Company Units (other than Parent, Merger Sub or any of their respective affiliates) in the Merger pursuant to this Agreement is fair to such holders from a financial point of view.

All such Permits are in full force and effect.

Parent has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) designed to ensure that material information relating to Parent, including its consolidated Subsidiaries, is made known to its principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Parent has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and, to the extent required by applicable Law, presented in any applicable Parent SEC Documents that is a report on Form 10-K or Form 10-Q, or any amendment thereto, its conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by such report or amendment based on such evaluation. To the Knowledge of Parent, such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting Parent’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer to information required to be included in Parent’s periodic reports required under the Exchange Act. Since the enactment of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act, neither Parent nor Merger Sub has made any prohibited loans to any director or executive officer of Parent (as defined in Rule 3b-7 under the Exchange Act).

-33-

(iv) Neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to, or has any commitment to become a party to, any joint venture, off-balance sheet partnership or any similar Contract (including any Contract or arrangement relating to any transaction or relationship between or among Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any unconsolidated Affiliate, including any structured finance, special purpose or limited purpose entity or Person, on the other hand), or any “off-balance sheet arrangements” (as defined in Item 303(a) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act), where the result, purpose or effect of such Contract is to avoid disclosure of any material transaction involving, or material liabilities of, Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ published financial statements or any of the Parent SEC Documents.

(e) Absence of Certain Changes or Events. Except as disclosed in the Parent SEC Documents, since the Financial Statement Date and through the date of this Agreement, (i) Parent and its Subsidiaries have conducted their respective businesses only in the ordinary course consistent with past practices and there has not been a Parent Material Adverse Effect, nor has there been any occurrence or circumstance that, individually or in the aggregate, has had, or would with the passage of time reasonably be expected to result in, a Parent Material Adverse Effect, and (ii) none of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries have taken any action that, if taken after the date hereof, would be in violation of Section 4.2.

(f) Litigation. There is no pending or, to the Knowledge of Parent, threatened material Legal Action or material investigation pending by a Governmental Entity against or affecting (i) Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent or any asset of Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent or (ii) any director, officer or employee of Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent or other Person for whom Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent may be liable, nor is there any judgment, decree, injunction, rule or order of any Governmental Entity or arbitrator outstanding against Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent. Other than pursuant to the Parent Organizational Documents, no Contract between Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent, on the one hand, and any current or former director, officer, employee or shareholder (or equivalent interest holder) of Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent, on the other hand, exists that provides for indemnification.

-34-

(g) Taxes.

(i) Parent and each Subsidiary of Parent have timely filed all material Tax Returns and reports required to be filed by it (after giving effect to any filing extension properly granted by a Governmental Entity having authority to do so). All such Tax Returns are true, correct and complete in all material respects. Neither Parent nor any other Person on behalf of Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent has requested any extension of time within which to file any material Tax Return, which material Tax Return has not yet been filed. Parent and each Subsidiary of Parent have paid (or Parent has paid on their behalf), within the time and manner prescribed by Law, all material Taxes shown as due and payable on such Tax Returns. The most recent financial statements contained in the Parent SEC Documents filed with the SEC prior to the date of this Agreement reflect an adequate reserve or accrued liabilities or expenses for all Taxes due and payable by Parent and the Subsidiaries of Parent as a group for all taxable periods and portions thereof through the date of such financial statements, except for failures to reflect adequate reserves that would not in the aggregate be material. Parent and its Subsidiaries (as a group) have established on their books and records (which may, but are not required to, be reflected only on the books and records of Parent) reserves or accrued liabilities or expenses that are adequate for the payment of all material Taxes for which Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent is liable but which are not yet due and payable. Parent has incurred no material liability for any Taxes under Sections 857(b), 860(c) or 4981 of the Code or Treasury Regulation Sections 1.337(d)-5, 1.337(d)-6 or 1.337(d)-7, including, without limitation, any Tax arising from a prohibited transaction described in Section 857(b)(6) of the Code and the excise tax on redetermined rents, redetermined deductions, redetermined TRS service income, and excess interest under Section 857(b)(7) of the Code; and neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred any material liability for Taxes other than in the ordinary course of business and other than transfer or similar Taxes arising in connection with the sale of property. No event has occurred, and no condition or circumstances exists, which presents a material risk that any material Tax described in the preceding sentences will be imposed on Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent. No material deficiencies for Taxes have been asserted or assessed in writing by a Governmental Entity against Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, and no requests for waivers of the time to assess any such Taxes have been granted and remain in effect or are pending. No material written claim is pending or proposed by any Governmental Entity in any jurisdiction where Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent do not file Tax Returns that Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent is or may be subject to taxation by such jurisdiction.

(ii) Parent (A) for all of its taxable years beginning upon the first taxable year ending December 31, 2008 through the most recent December 31, has been subject to taxation as a REIT under the Code within the meaning of Section 856 of the Code and has satisfied the requirements to qualify as a REIT for such years, (B) has operated, and intends to continue to operate, in such a manner as to qualify as a REIT upon closing of the transactions contemplated hereby, and (C) has not taken or omitted to take any action which could reasonably be expected to result in a challenge by the IRS to its status as a REIT, and, to Parent’s Knowledge, no such challenge is pending or threatened in writing. Each Subsidiary of Parent that files Tax Returns as a partnership (or as a disregarded entity), for U.S. federal income tax purposes has, since inception, been classified for federal income tax purposes as a partnership (or as a disregarded entity) and not as a corporation or as an association taxable as a corporation, or a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704(b) of the Code that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Section 7704(a) of the Code. Each Subsidiary of Parent that is a corporation has been, since its formation, classified as a Qualified REIT Subsidiary, a Taxable REIT Subsidiary or a REIT.

(iii) (A) Neither Parent nor any Subsidiary of Parent is a party to any material pending action or proceeding, including any audit or contest, by any Governmental Entity with regard to Taxes or Tax Returns of Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent; (B) no material claim for assessment or collection of Taxes has been asserted against Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent; (C) there are no audits pending with or proposed in writing by any taxing authority with respect to any material Taxes or Tax Returns of Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent; (D) neither Parent nor any Subsidiary of Parent has requested, received or is subject to a private letter ruling or similar written ruling or determination of a taxing authority or has entered into any written agreement with a taxing authority with respect to any Taxes; and (E) neither Parent nor any Subsidiary of Parent has applied for or entered into any “closing agreement” as described in Section 7121 of the Code (or any corresponding or similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law).

(iv) Neither Parent nor any Subsidiary of Parent holds any asset the disposition of which, if occurring in a fully taxable transaction immediately following the Closing, would be subject to (or to rules similar to) Section 337(d) or 1374 of the Code or the regulations thereunder (assuming for this purpose that the “recognition period,” as defined in Section 1374, is in all cases 5 years) or to the “prohibited transactions” Tax under Section 857(b)(6), nor has it disposed of any such asset during its current taxable year.

(v) Neither Parent nor any Subsidiary of Parent (A) is or has been at any time a member of an affiliated consolidated, combined or unitary group (other than a group the common parent of which is Parent or a directly or indirectly wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent) and (B) has any liability for the Taxes of any other person other than Parent and such Subsidiaries of Parent under Treasury Regulation § 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law), as a transferee or successor, by contract, or otherwise.

(vi) To the Knowledge of Parent, Parent is a “domestically-controlled qualified investment entity” within the meaning of Section 897(h)(4)(B) of the Code.

(vii) Neither Parent nor any Subsidiary of Parent has participated in, or otherwise made a filing with respect to, any “reportable transaction” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations § 1.6011-4(b).

-36-

(viii) None of Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent will be required to include any material item of income in, or exclude any material item of deduction from, taxable income for any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending after the Closing Date as a result of any (A) change in method of accounting for a taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, (B) “closing agreement” as described in Section 7121 of the Code (or any corresponding or similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law) executed on or prior to the Closing Date, (C) intercompany transactions or excess loss account described in Treasury Regulations under Section 1502 of the Code (or any corresponding or similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law), (D) installment sale or open transaction disposition made on or prior to the Closing Date, (E) prepaid amount received on or prior to the Closing Date, (F) cancellation of indebtedness income deferred pursuant to Section 108(i) of the Code, or (G) otherwise as a result of a transaction or accounting method that accelerated an item of deduction into periods ending on or before the Closing Date or a transaction or accounting method that deferred an item of income into periods beginning after the Closing Date.

(ix) Parent does not have any earnings and profits attributable to Parent or any other corporation for any non-REIT year within the meaning of Section 857 of the Code.

(x) Neither Parent nor any Subsidiary of Parent has made any payments, or is obligated to make any payments, or is a party to an agreement that could obligate it to make any payments that will not be deductible under Section 280G of the Code.

(xi) Neither Parent nor its Subsidiaries is or has been a party to any Tax allocation or sharing agreement or similar agreement or arrangement (other than any agreement or arrangement either solely between Parent and any Subsidiary of Parent or solely between or among any two or more Subsidiaries of Parent) pursuant to which it will have any obligation to make any payments after the Closing.

(xii) Neither Parent nor any Subsidiary of Parent has any liability for the Taxes of any Person other than Parent and its Subsidiaries (A) under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law) or (B) as a transferee or successor.

(xiii) There are no Tax Protection Agreements for Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent currently in force or otherwise binding upon Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent. Neither Parent nor any Subsidiary of Parent has any current and outstanding liability under any Tax Protection Agreement, and no person has raised, or, to the Knowledge of Parent, threatened to raise, a material claim against Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent under any Tax Protection Agreement.

(xiv) To the Knowledge of Parent, all material amounts of Taxes that Parent or its Subsidiaries are required by Law to withhold or collect, including material Taxes required to have been withheld in connection with amounts paid or owing to any employee, independent contractor, creditor, shareholder or other third party and sales, gross receipts and use taxes, and withholding of Taxes pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445, 1446, 3402, and 1471 through 1474 of the Code or similar provisions under any foreign Laws, have been duly withheld or collected and, to the extent required, have been paid over to the proper Governmental Entities or, if not yet due, are held in separate bank accounts for such purpose. There are no material Encumbrances for Taxes upon the assets of Parent or its Subsidiaries except for statutory Encumbrances for Taxes not yet due.

-37-

(xv) None of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries has either been a “distributing corporation” or a “controlled corporation” in a distribution occurring during the last five (5) years to which the parties in such distribution treated the distribution as one to which Section 355 of the Code is applicable (within the meaning of Section 355(a)(1)(A) of the Code) in a distribution of stock intended to qualify for tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the Code (A) in the two (2) years prior to the date of this Agreement, or (B) in a distribution which could otherwise constitute part of a “plan” or “series of related transactions” (within the meaning of Section 355(e) of the Code) in conjunction with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Except as set forth in the Parent SEC Documents made through and including the date of this Agreement or as permitted by this Agreement, there have been no transactions, agreements, arrangements or understandings between Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent, on the one hand, and any Affiliates (other than Subsidiaries of Parent) of Parent or other Persons, on the other hand, that would be required to be disclosed under Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act.

From and after the Go Shop Period End Time, in the event the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives receives from a Person (including a Go Shop Bidder) or group of related Persons (x) an Acquisition Proposal or an amended or modified proposal or offer with respect to any such Acquisition Proposal, (y) any request for information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries from a Person who informs the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that it is considering making or has made an Acquisition Proposal or (z) any inquiry or request for discussions or negotiations regarding any Acquisition Proposal, the Company shall promptly notify Parent of (but in no event more than 48 hours following) such receipt. Such notification shall include, to the extent then known, the identity of the parties and a copy of such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry or request or, if not made in writing, a written description of the material terms thereof. The Company shall keep Parent apprised on a current basis of (and in any event no later than 24 hours after) any material developments, discussions and negotiations concerning, any such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry or request, including by furnishing copies of any documentation and written correspondence that supplements or amends any such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry or request. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but subject to the preceding three sentences, nothing herein shall prohibit the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives from contacting in writing any Person submitting an Acquisition Proposal (that was not the result of a violation of this Section 5.4) solely to clarify the terms of the Acquisition Proposal for the sole purpose of the Company Board (or the Company Special Committee) informing itself about such Acquisition Proposal. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, after the date of this Agreement, enter into any confidentiality agreement that would prohibit it from providing such information to Parent.

-57-

(e) At any time prior to receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval, the Company Board may, if the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with its legal advisor (and based on the recommendation of the Company Special Committee) that the failure to do so would reasonably be likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of the Company under applicable Law, (i) upon receipt by the Company of an Acquisition Proposal that constitutes a Superior Proposal (whether or not from a Go Shop Bidder), make a Company Change in Recommendation (and the Company may so terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1(c)(ii) of this Agreement and enter into an agreement relating to, or for the implementation of, such Superior Proposal); or (ii) otherwise make a Company Change in Recommendation in response to a Company Intervening Event; provided that

(A) in the case of a Company Change in Recommendation under clause (i) of this Section 5.4(e), (1) such Acquisition Proposal did not result from the Company’s breach of its obligations under this Section 5.4, and (2) the Company Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with its legal and financial advisors (and based on the recommendation of the Company Special Committee), that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and, after consultation with its legal advisor, that the failure of the Company to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1(c)(ii) or make a Company Change in Recommendation, as the case may be, would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of the Company under applicable Law, taking into account all adjustments to the terms of this Agreement that may be offered by Parent pursuant to Section 5.4(e)(D);

(B) in the case of a Company Change in Recommendation under clause (ii) of this Section 5.4(e), the Company Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with its legal advisor (and based on the recommendation of the Company Special Committee), that failure of the Company to make a Company Change in Recommendation would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of the Company under applicable Law, taking into account all adjustments to the terms of this Agreement that may be offered by Parent pursuant to Section 5.4(e)(D);

-58-

(C) the Company has notified Parent in writing that the Company Board intends to make a Company Change in Recommendation or enter into an agreement related to the Superior Proposal, attaching the most current version of such agreement (including any amendments, supplements or modifications) to such notice (a “Company Change Notice”); and

(D) during the five (5) Business Day period following Parent’s receipt of a Company Change Notice, the Company shall have offered to negotiate with (and, if accepted, negotiated in good faith with), and shall have caused its respective financial and legal advisors to offer to negotiate with (and, if accepted, negotiate in good faith with), Parent in making adjustments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement such that (1) in circumstances involving or relating to an Acquisition Proposal, the Superior Proposal ceases to be a Superior Proposal; provided that any amendment, supplement or modification to any Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed a new Acquisition Proposal and the Company may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(c) or make a Company Change in Recommendation pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 5.4(e) unless the Company has complied with the requirements of this Section 5.4(e) with respect to each such new Acquisition Proposal including sending a Company Change Notice with respect to each such new Acquisition Proposal (except that the new negotiation period under this Section 5.4(e)(D) shall be three (3) Business Days instead of five (5) Business Days), and (2) in circumstances not involving an Acquisition Proposal, as may be proposed by Parent.

(f) Notwithstanding any Company Change in Recommendation, unless such Company Change in Recommendation is with respect to a Superior Proposal and the Company terminates this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1(c)(ii) of this Agreement, the Company shall cause the approval of the Merger, the Plan of Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby to be submitted to a vote of the Company’s shareholders at the Company Shareholder Meeting.

(g) Nothing in this Section 5.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prevent the Company Board or the Company, directly or indirectly, from (i) taking and disclosing to the shareholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, making any required disclosure to the shareholders of the Company under applicable Law, including Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act or Item 1012(a) of Regulation M-A or (ii) making any disclosure to the shareholders of the Company if the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with its legal advisors (and based on the recommendation of the Company Special Committee) that the failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of the Company under applicable Law; provided, however, that to the extent any such disclosure addresses the approval, recommendation or declaration of advisability by the Company Board with respect to this Agreement or an Acquisition Proposal, such disclosure shall be deemed to be a Company Change in Recommendation if not accompanied by an express public re-affirmation of the Company Recommendation.

Section 7.5 Escrow of Termination Fee.

(a) In the event that the Company or Parent, as the case may be (the “Paying Party”), is obligated to pay the Termination Fee or the Go Shop Termination Fee, as the case may be, to the other (the “Fee Recipient”), the Paying Party shall pay to the Fee Recipient from the Termination Fee or the Go Shop Termination Fee, as the case may be, deposited into escrow in accordance with the next sentence, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Termination Fee or the Go Shop Termination Fee, as the case may be, and (ii) the sum of (1) the maximum amount that can be paid to the Fee Recipient without causing the Fee Recipient to fail to meet the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code determined as if the payment of such amount did not constitute income described in Sections 856(c)(2)(A)(H) or 856(c)(3)(A)(I) of the Code (“Qualifying Income”), as determined by the Fee Recipient’s independent certified public accountants, plus (2) in the event the Fee Recipient receives either (A) a letter from the its counsel indicating that the Fee Recipient has received a ruling from the IRS described in Section 7.5(b) or (B) an opinion from the Fee Recipient’s outside counsel as described in Section 7.5(b), an amount equal to the Termination Fee or the Go Shop Termination Fee, as the case may be, less the amount payable under clause (1) above. To secure the Paying Party’s obligation to pay these amounts, it shall deposit into escrow an amount in cash equal to the Termination Fee or the Go Shop Termination Fee, as the case may be, with an escrow agent selected by the Fee Recipient and on such terms (subject to Section 7.5(b)) as shall be mutually agreed upon by the Fee Recipient and the escrow agent.

-71-

(b) The escrow agreement shall provide that the Termination Fee or the Go Shop Termination Fee, as the case may be, in escrow or any portion thereof shall not be released to the Fee Recipient unless the escrow agent receives any one or combination of the following: (i) a letter from the Fee Recipient’s independent certified public accountants indicating the maximum amount that can be paid by the escrow agent to it without causing it to fail to meet the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code determined as if the payment of such amount did not constitute Qualifying Income or a subsequent letter from the Fee Recipient’s accountants revising that amount, in which case the escrow agent shall release such amount to the Fee Recipient, or (ii) a letter from the Fee Recipient’s counsel indicating that the Fee Recipient received a ruling from the IRS holding that the receipt by it of the Termination Fee or the Go Shop Termination Fee, as the case may be, would either constitute Qualifying Income or would be excluded from gross income within the meaning of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code (or alternatively, the Fee Recipient’s outside counsel has rendered a legal opinion to the effect that the receipt by the Fee Recipient of the Termination Fee or the Go Shop Termination Fee, as the case may be, would constitute Qualifying Income, would be excluded from gross income within the meaning of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code or would not otherwise disqualify the Fee Recipient as a REIT), in which case the escrow agent shall release the remainder of the Termination Fee or the Go Shop Termination Fee, as the case may be, to the Fee Recipient. The parties hereto agree to amend this Section 7.5 at the request of the Fee Recipient in order to (x) maximize the portion of the Termination Fee or the Go Shop Termination Fee, as the case may be, that may be distributed to the Fee Recipient hereunder without causing the Fee Recipient to fail to meet the requirements of Sections 856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code, (y) improve the Fee Recipient’s chances of securing a favorable ruling described in this Section 7.5(b) or (z) assist the Fee Recipient in obtaining a favorable legal opinion from its outside counsel as described in this Section 7.5(b).

Any costs and expenses of the escrow agent shall be borne solely by the Fee Recipient.

This Agreement may be amended in writing by the Company (following the approval of such action by the Company Special Committees) and Parent at any time before or after the Company Shareholder Approval is obtained and prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that, after the Company Shareholder Approval is obtained, no such amendment, modification or supplement shall change (i) the amount or kind of consideration to be delivered to the Company’s shareholders, (ii) the articles of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation except for changes permitted by Section 13.1-706 of the VSCA or (iii) any of the other terms or conditions of this Agreement that would adversely affect the shareholders of the Company in any material respect. From and after the date hereof, the Company Board shall act solely with the prior approval of the Company Special Committee with respect to any actions of the Company to be taken with respect to this Agreement, including any amendment, modification, or waiver of this Agreement.

VOTING AGREEMENT

This VOTING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of April 13, 2016, is entered into by and among Apple REIT Ten, Inc., a Virginia corporation (the “Company”), Apple Hospitality REIT, Inc., a Virginia corporation (“Parent,” and collectively with the Company, the “Apple REITs” or individually, an “Apple REIT”), and Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx (the “Company Securityholder”).

WHEREAS, the Apple REITs and 34 Consolidated, Inc., a Virginia corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), are entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 13, 2016 (as it may be amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company will merge with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with Merger Sub continuing as the Surviving Corporation in the Merger (all capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Merger Agreement);

WHEREAS, as the date hereof, the Company Securityholder is the beneficial and record owner of, and has the sole or shared right to vote and dispose of, all the issued and outstanding Series B Convertible Preferred Shares, no par value, of the Company (the “Series B Convertible Shares”) and 8,042,857 Parent Common Shares, no par value, as more particularly described on Schedule 1 hereto; and

WHEREAS, as a condition to its willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, each of the Apple REITs has required that the Company Securityholder agree, and the Company Securityholder is willing to agree, to the matters set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree, intending to be legally bound hereby, as follows:

SECTION 1. Disposition of Series B Shares

During the period from the date hereof through the earlier of (i) the date on which the Merger is consummated or (ii) the date on which the Merger Agreement is terminated according to its terms (such period hereinafter referred to as the “Term”), the Company Securityholder shall not, directly or indirectly, (a) sell, sell short, transfer (including by gift), pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any contract, option or other agreement or understanding with respect to the sale, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, any Series B Convertible Shares or any other Company Shares or Parent Common Shares that the Company Securityholder may beneficially own during the Term (collectively, with the Series B Convertible Shares, the “Subject Shares”), (b) grant any proxies or powers of attorney for any Subject Shares with respect to any matters described in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 2 hereof (other than a proxy directing the holder thereof to vote the Subject Shares in a manner required by paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 2 hereof), (c) deposit any Subject Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or other arrangement with respect to any Subject Shares with respect to any of the matters described in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 2 hereof, or tender any Subject Shares in a transaction other than a transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement, or (d) take any action which is intended to have the effect of preventing or disabling the Company Securityholder from performing his obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent (i) the sale, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of any of such Subject Shares, provided that the purchaser, transferee, pledgee or assignee thereof agrees in writing with the Apple REITs, prior to such sale, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or other disposition, to be bound by the terms of this Agreement or (ii) the assignment of certain benefits by the Company Securityholder pursuant to agreements entered into before the date hereof with respect to Series B Convertible Shares as to which the Company Securityholder is not the sole beneficial owner.

SECTION 2. Voting

During the Term, the Company Securityholder shall:

(a) be present, in person or represented by proxy, at each meeting (whether annual or special and whether or not an adjourned or postponed meeting) of the shareholders of either Apple REIT, however called, so that all of such Company Securityholder’s Subject Shares may be counted for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at each such Apple REIT shareholders’ meeting; and

(b) cast or cause to be cast all votes attributable to the Subject Shares at any annual or special meeting of shareholders of either Apple REIT, including any adjournments or postponements thereof, or in connection with any written consent or other vote of the shareholders of an Apple REIT, in favor of (i) with respect to a shareholders’ meeting of the Company, approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement (including any amendments or modifications of the terms of the Merger Agreement approved by the boards of directors of the Company, upon the recommendation of the Company Special Committee, that would not materially adversely affect the Company Securityholder in his capacity as beneficial owner of the Subject Shares), the related Plan of Merger, approval of the Merger, each of the other actions contemplated in the Merger Agreement and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and any actions required in furtherance thereof, (ii) with respect to a shareholders’ meeting of Parent, approval of the issuance of the Parent Common Shares to be issued in the Merger, (iii) approval and adoption of any proposal to adjourn or postpone such Apple REIT shareholders’ meeting to a later date if there are not sufficient votes for the foregoing matters to be approved at each such meeting on the date on which the Apple REIT shareholders’ meetings are held and (iv) at each such meeting, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof, vote against: (A) any action or agreement that would reasonably be expected to frustrate the purposes of, impede, hinder, interfere with, or prevent or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and (B) any Acquisition Proposal (other than the Merger) and any action required in furtherance thereof.

(c) The Company Securityholder will retain the right to vote his Subject Shares, in his sole discretion, on all matters other than those described in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2, and the Company Securityholder may grant proxies and enter into voting agreements or voting trusts for his Subject Shares in respect of such other matters, in each case so long as such other arrangements do not interfere with or prevent the Company Securityholder from complying with his obligations under this Agreement.

(d) The Company Securityholder constitutes and appoints each Apple REIT, from and after the date hereof until the earlier to occur of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 16 (at which point such constitution and appointment shall automatically be revoked), as such Company Securityholder’s attorney, agent and proxy (each such constitution and appointment, an “Irrevocable Proxy”), with full power of substitution, to vote and otherwise act with respect to all of the Subject Shares of such Apple REIT at any annual, special or other meeting of the shareholders of such Apple REIT, and at any adjournment or adjournments or postponement thereof, and in any action by written consent of the shareholders of such Apple REIT, on the matters and in the manner specified in Section 2(b); provided, however, that the foregoing shall only be effective if the Company Securityholder fails to be counted as present and to vote all of the Subject Shares of each such Apple REIT in accordance with paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2. EACH SUCH PROXY AND POWER OF ATTORNEY IS IRREVOCABLE AND COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, SHALL BE VALID AND BINDING ON ANY PERSON TO WHOM THE COMPANY SECURITYHOLDER MAY TRANSFER ANY OF HIS SUBJECT SHARES IN BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT. The Company Securityholder hereby revokes all other proxies and powers of attorney with respect to any or all of the Subject Shares that may have heretofore been appointed or granted with respect to the matters covered by Section 2(b), and no subsequent proxy or power of attorney shall be given (and if given, shall not be effective) by the Company Securityholder with respect thereto on the matters covered by Section 2(b). All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred by the Company Securityholder shall survive the death or incapacity of the Company Securityholder and any obligation of the Company Securityholder under this Agreement shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the Company Securityholder. It is agreed that no Apple REIT will use the Irrevocable Proxy granted by the Company Securityholder unless the Company Securityholder fails to comply with Section 2(a) or (b) and that, to the extent an Apple REIT uses any such Irrevocable Proxy, it will only vote the Subject Shares subject to such Irrevocable Proxy with respect to the matters specified in, and in accordance with the provisions of, Section 2(b).

SECTION 3. Waiver of Appraisal Rights

The Company Securityholder hereby waives any rights of appraisal or rights to dissent from the Merger, and agrees to prevent the execution of any rights of appraisal and dissenters’ rights relating to the Merger that the Company Securityholder may have directly or indirectly by virtue of the ownership of the Subject Shares.

SECTION 4. Additional Shares

Without limiting any provisions of the Merger Agreement, in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, combination or exchange of shares of capital stock of either Apple REIT on, of or affecting any Subject Shares, then the terms of this Agreement shall apply to the shares of capital stock or other such securities of such Apple REIT held by the Company Securityholder immediately following the effectiveness of such event.

(d) Subject to any required filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), the Company Securityholder is not required to give any notice or make any report or other filing with any governmental or regulatory authority in connection with the execution or delivery of this Agreement or the performance of the Company Securityholder’s obligations hereunder and no waiver, consent, approval or authorization of any governmental or regulatory authority or any other person or entity is required to be obtained by the Company Securityholder for the performance of the Company Securityholder’s obligations hereunder, other than where the failure to make such filings, give such notices or obtain such waivers, consents, approvals or authorizations would not materially and adversely affect the Company Securityholder’s ability to perform his obligations under this Agreement.

(e) The Series B Convertible Shares, Company Units and Parent Common Shares set forth opposite the name of the Company Securityholder on Schedule 1 hereto are, as of the date hereof, the only Subject Shares owned beneficially or of record by the Company Securityholder or over which the Company Securityholder exercises voting control.

SECTION 6. Further Assurances

This Agreement shall not be amended, altered or modified except by an instrument in writing duly executed by each of the parties hereto; provided that no such written agreement shall be binding on an Apple REIT unless approved by the Company Special Committee or the Parent Board, as applicable. No delay or failure on the part of any party hereto in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall impair any such right, power or privilege or be construed as a waiver of any default or any acquiescence thereto.

ARTICLE 2

EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON THE CAPITAL STOCK

OF THE CONSTITUENT CORPORATIONS

Section 2.1 Effect on Capital Stock.

(a) The Merger. By virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any outstanding capital stock of the Company:

(i) At the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding common share, no par value, of the Company (including any fractional shares) (the “Common Shares”) together with the related Series A Preferred Share, no par value, of the Company (including any fractional shares) (the “Series A Shares,” and together with the Common Shares, the “Units”) (other than the Merger Dissenting Shares (as defined in Section 2.3) or any Shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(iii)) shall be converted into the right to receive 0.522 (the “Unit Exchange Ratio”) Parent Common Shares (the “Unit Stock Consideration”) and $1.00 in cash (the “Per Unit Cash Consideration”), and (b) each issued and outstanding Series B Convertible Preferred Share, no par value, of the Company (the “Series B Shares”) shall be converted into the right to receive (x) a number of Parent Common Shares equal to (0) 00.00000 multiplied by (2) the Unit Exchange Ratio (the “Series B Stock Consideration,” and together with the Unit Stock Consideration, the “Stock Consideration”) and (y) an amount equal to 12.11423 multiplied by $1.00 in cash (the “Series B Cash Consideration,” and together with the Per Unit Cash Consideration, the “Cash Consideration”). The aggregate of the Stock Consideration and the Cash Consideration shall collectively be referred to herein as the “Merger Consideration.”

(ii) No fractional Parent Common Shares shall be issued. Each holder of Shares who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a Parent Common Share shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash, without interest, in an amount equal to such fractional part of a Parent Common Share multiplied by the VWAP of Parent Common Shares (the “Fractional Share Consideration”).

(iii) Each Share (including any fractional Share), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that is owned by Parent, Acquisition Sub or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(iv) All Shares converted pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i), when so converted, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a Certificate (as defined below) or a Book-Entry Share shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration (including any Fractional Share Consideration) and any dividends or other distributions to which holders may be entitled in accordance with Section 2.2(e), without interest.

(b) Surviving Corporation. By virtue of the Merger, and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each common share, no par value, of Acquisition Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding as a duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable common share, no par value, of the Surviving Corporation, so that thereafter Parent will be the sole and exclusive owner of the outstanding capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(c) Stock Options. The Company shall take all requisite action so that at the Effective Time, each outstanding option issued by the Company pursuant to any of its stock incentive plans (a “Stock Option”) whether or not exercisable at the Effective Time, shall be assumed by Parent by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof. Subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of the applicable stock incentive plan including any applicable award agreement evidencing such Stock Option, from and after the Effective Time, each Stock Option so assumed by Parent under this Plan of Merger will otherwise continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (including vesting schedule) as were applicable to the corresponding Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time as set forth in the applicable stock incentive plan (including any applicable award agreement, evidencing such Stock Option) immediately prior the Effective Time, except that, from and after the Effective Time, (A) each Stock Option, when exercisable, will be exercisable for that number of whole Parent Common Shares equal to the product of the number of Common Shares that were subject to such Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Equity Exchange Factor, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Parent Common Shares and (B) the per share exercise price for the Parent Common Shares issuable upon exercise of such assumed Stock Option will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price of each Common Share subject to such assumed Stock Option by the Equity Exchange Factor, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.

(d) Certain Adjustments. If, before the Effective Time (and as permitted by ARTICLE IV of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 13, 2016, among the Company, Acquisition Sub and Parent (the “Merger Agreement”)), the outstanding Shares and/or the outstanding Parent Common Shares shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class of shares by reason of any stock dividend, subdivision, reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, combination or exchange of shares, or any similar event shall have occurred, then the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately and proportionately adjusted to provide to the holders of Shares the same economic effect as contemplated by this Plan of Merger prior to such event.

Section 2.2 Exchange Procedures.

(b) Exchange Fund. At or before the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit or cause Acquisition Sub to deposit, with the Exchange Agent (i) evidence of Parent Common Shares in book-entry form issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i) equal to the aggregate Stock Consideration (excluding any Fractional Share Consideration), and (ii) cash in immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate Cash Consideration, the Fractional Share Consideration, and any dividends or distributions to which holders of Shares may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e) (such evidence of book-entry Parent Common Shares and cash amounts, the “Exchange Fund”), in each case for the benefit of the holders of Shares. Promptly after the date that the Merger becomes effective, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.2(c), Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, cause the Exchange Agent to make, and the Exchange Agent shall make, delivery of the Merger Consideration, including payment of the Fractional Share Consideration, and any dividends or distributions to which holders of Shares may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e), out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Plan of Merger. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose that is not expressly provided for in this Plan of Merger.

(i) As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time and in no event later than two Business Days following the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of outstanding Shares that were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(i): (A) a letter of transmittal (“Letter of Transmittal”), in customary form and with such other provisions as reasonably agreed upon by the Company and Parent prior to the Effective Time, which shall specify, among other things, that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to Shares represented by certificates (“Certificates”) or Book-Entry Shares shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or transfer of any Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent; and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or the transfer of Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration.

(ii) Upon (A) surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or transfer of any Book-Entry Share to the Exchange Agent, together with a properly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal or (B) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of transfer of a Book-Entry Share, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration for each Share formerly represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Share pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE 2 plus any Fractional Share Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.1(a)(ii) and any amounts that such holder has the right to receive in respect of dividends or distributions to which holders of Shares may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e), by mail or by wire transfer after the Exchange Agent’s receipt of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or “agent’s message” or other evidence, and the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) so surrendered or the Book-Entry Share so transferred, as applicable, shall be forthwith cancelled. The Exchange Agent shall accept such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) and Book-Entry Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Exchange Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with customary exchange practices. Until surrendered or transferred as contemplated by this Section 2.2, each Certificate and Book-Entry Share shall be deemed, at any time after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive, upon such surrender, the Merger Consideration as contemplated by this ARTICLE 2. No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares on the Merger Consideration or the Fractional Share Consideration payable upon the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares and any dividends or distributions to which such holder may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e).

(iii) In the event of a transfer of ownership of Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, it shall be a condition of payment that any Certificate or Book-Entry Share surrendered or transferred in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.2 shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer, and that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer Taxes and other Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or Book-Entry Share transferred, or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent that such Tax either has been paid or is not applicable.

(d) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including any interest and income received with respect thereto and any Fractional Share Consideration and any applicable dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Common Shares) that remains undistributed to the former holders of Shares for twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any former holders of Shares prior to the Merger who have not theretofore complied with this ARTICLE 2 shall thereafter look only to Parent and the Surviving Corporation (and only as general creditors thereof) for payment of the applicable Merger Consideration, subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat and other similar Laws.

(e) No Further Ownership Rights in Capital Stock of the Company. The Merger Consideration (including the Fractional Share Consideration) issued upon exchange of the Shares in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE 2 shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Shares, subject, however, to the obligation of the Surviving Corporation to pay, without interest and not more than 60 days following the Effective Time, any dividends or make any other distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time that may have been declared or made by the Company on the Shares in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement or prior to the date of the Merger Agreement and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time and have not been paid prior to such exchange, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of the Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(f) No Liability. None of Parent, the Company, Acquisition Sub or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(g) Withholding Rights. Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Plan of Merger to any holder of Shares such amounts as Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Plan of Merger as having been paid to the holder of Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be.

Section 2.3 Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan of Merger to the contrary, holders of Shares who have properly exercised, perfected and not subsequently withdrawn or lost their appraisal rights with respect thereto in accordance with Article 15 of the VSCA (the “Merger Dissenting Shares”) shall not have any of such Merger Dissenting Shares converted into the right to receive, or become exchangeable for, the Merger Consideration. The holders of such Merger Dissenting Shares shall be entitled to obtain payment of the fair value of such Merger Dissenting Shares in accordance with the provisions of Article 15 of the VSCA unless and until such holders fail to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost their dissenters' rights under Article 15 of the VSCA. If, after the Effective Time, any such holder fails to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such right, each of such holder's Merger Dissenting Shares shall thereupon be treated as if it had been converted into the right to receive, and become exchangeable for, at the Effective Time, the Merger Consideration, as provided in Section 2.1(a)(i) hereof. Parent shall be responsible for all payments to be made under Article 15 of the VSCA in respect of Merger Dissenting Shares.

Section 2.4 Further Assurances. If, at any time before or after the Effective Time, any of the parties to the Merger Agreement reasonably believes or is advised that any further instruments, deeds, assignments or assurances are reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the Merger or to carry out the purposes and intent of this Plan of Merger at or after the Effective Time, then the Company, Parent, Acquisition Sub and/or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, and their respective officers and directors shall execute and deliver all such proper instruments, deeds, assignments or assurances and do all other things reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the Merger and to carry out the purposes and intent of this Plan of Merger.

ARTICLE 3

AMENDMENT

Section 3.1 Amendment. This Plan of Merger may be amended in writing by the Company (following the approval of such action by the Special Committee) and Parent at any time before or after the Company Shareholder Approval is obtained and prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that, after the Company Shareholder Approval is obtained, no such amendment, modification or supplement shall change (i) the amount or kind of consideration to be delivered to the Company’s shareholders, (ii) the articles of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation except for changes permitted by Section 13.1-706 of the VSCA or (iii) any of the other terms or conditions of this Plan of Merger if the change would adversely affect the shareholders of the Company in any material respect. The Board of Directors of the Company shall act solely with the prior approval of the Special Committee thereof with respect to any actions of the Company to be taken with respect to this Plan of Merger, including any amendment, modification, or waiver of this Plan of Merger.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding common share, no par value, of the Company (including any fractional shares) (each, a “Company Common Share”) together with the related Series A Preferred Share, no par value, of the Company (including any fractional shares) (the “Company Series A Shares,” and together with the Company Common Shares, the “Company Units”) (other than the Dissenting Shares or any Company Shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(iii) of the Merger Agreement) shall be converted into the right to receive (x) 0.522 (the “Unit Exchange Ratio”) authorized common shares of the Parent (the “Parent Common Shares”) and (y) $1.00 in cash, and (b) each issued and outstanding Series B Convertible Preferred Share, no par value, of the Company (the “Company Series B Shares” and together with the Company Units, the “Company Shares”) shall be converted into the right to receive (x) a number of Parent Common Shares equal to (0) 00.00000 multiplied by (2) the Unit Exchange Ratio and (y) an amount equal to 12.11423 multiplied by $1.00 in cash.

In connection with the preparation of this opinion letter, we have examined, and with your consent relied upon, without any independent investigation or review thereof, the following documents (including all exhibits and schedules thereto): (1) the Merger Agreement; (2) officers' certificates delivered by each of the Parent and the Company, both dated as of the date hereof (the "Tax Certificates"); (3) the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed by the Parent on [•], 2016 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, as amended; and (4) such other instruments and documents related to the formation, organization, and operation of the Parent and the Company or to the consummation of the Merger and the transactions contemplated thereby as we have deemed necessary or appropriate (the documents described in clauses (1) through (4), collectively the "Reviewed Documents").

Opinion

Based upon and subject to the assumptions and qualifications set forth herein we are of the opinion that the Merger, when effective, will qualify as a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

In addition to the assumptions set forth above, this opinion is subject to the exceptions, limitations, and qualifications set forth below:

The opinion set forth in this letter is based on relevant current provisions of the Code, the Treasury Regulations thereunder (including proposed and temporary Treasury Regulations), and interpretations of the foregoing as expressed in court decisions, applicable legislative history, and the administrative rulings and practices of the IRS, including its practices and policies in issuing private letter rulings, which are not binding on the IRS except with respect to a taxpayer that receives such a ruling, all as of the date hereof. These provisions and interpretations are subject to change by the IRS, Congress, and the courts (as applicable), which change may or may not be retroactive in effect and which might result in material modifications of our opinion. Our opinion does not foreclose the possibility of a contrary determination by the IRS or a court of competent jurisdiction, nor of a contrary position taken by the IRS or the Treasury Department in regulations or rulings issued in the future. In this regard, an opinion of counsel with respect to an issue represents counsel's best professional judgment with respect to the outcome on the merits with respect to such issue, if such issue were to be litigated, but an opinion is not binding on the IRS or the courts and is not a guarantee that the IRS will not assert a contrary position with respect to such issue or that a court will not sustain such a position asserted by the IRS. Neither the Parent nor the Company has requested or will request a ruling from the IRS as to any of the U.S. federal income tax consequences addressed in this opinion. Furthermore, no assurance can be given that future legislative, judicial, or administrative changes, including on a retroactive basis, would not adversely affect the accuracy of the opinion expressed herein.

This letter addresses only the specific tax opinion set forth above. Our opinion does not address any other U.S. federal, state, local, or non-U.S. tax consequences that will or may result from the Merger or any other transaction (including any transaction undertaken in connection with the Merger or contemplated by the Merger Agreement).

Our opinion set forth herein is based upon, among other things, the description of the contemplated transactions (including the Merger) as set forth in the Merger Agreement. No opinion is expressed as to any transaction other than those set forth in the Merger Agreement, or to any transaction whatsoever, including the Merger, unless all the transactions described in the Merger Agreement (or otherwise contemplated in connection with the Merger) have been consummated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement (and also without amendment, waiver, or breach of any provision thereof), and also unless all of the representations, warranties, statements, and assumptions upon which we have relied are true, complete, and accurate at all times. In the event that the actual facts relating to any aspect of the relevant transactions (including the Merger) differ from the terms of the Merger Agreement (without amendment, waiver, or breach of any material provision thereof), or if any one of the representations, warranties, statements, or assumptions upon which we have relied to issue this opinion is incorrect, our opinion might be adversely affected and may not be relied upon.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We are acting as tax counsel to Apple REIT Ten, Inc., a Virginia corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the merger of the Company with and into 34 Consolidated, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Apple Hospitality REIT, Inc., a Virginia corporation (“Parent”) pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 13, 2016 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Parent and Merger Sub (the “Merger”). This opinion letter is being delivered pursuant to section 6.2(f) of the Merger Agreement. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Merger Agreement.

The opinions set forth in this letter are based on relevant current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Treasury Regulations thereunder (including proposed and temporary Treasury Regulations), and interpretations of the foregoing as expressed in court decisions, applicable legislative history, and the administrative rulings and practices of the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), including its practices and policies in issuing private letter rulings, which are not binding on the IRS except with respect to a taxpayer that receives such a ruling, all as of the date hereof. These provisions and interpretations are subject to change by the IRS, Congress and the courts (as applicable), which may or may not be retroactive in effect and which might result in material modifications of our opinions. Our opinions do not foreclose the possibility of a contrary determination by the IRS or a court of competent jurisdiction, or of a contrary position taken by the IRS or the Treasury Department in regulations or rulings issued in the future. In this regard, an opinion of counsel with respect to an issue represents counsel’s best professional judgment with respect to the outcome on the merits with respect to such issue, if such issue were to be litigated, but an opinion is not binding on the IRS or the courts, and is not a guarantee that the IRS will not assert a contrary position with respect to such issue or that a court will not sustain such a position asserted by the IRS.

In rendering our opinions, we have examined originals or copies of: (i) the Merger Agreement, (ii) certain organizational documents of the Company and its subsidiaries, (iii) the written representations with regard to the Company contained in a certificate to us dated as of the date hereof (the “Officer’s Certificate”), and (iv) such statutes and regulations and other agreements and documents as we have considered necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions expressed below, in each case, which we have, with your consent, relied upon (without any independent investigation or review thereof) (the documents described in clauses (i) through (iv), collectively, the “Reviewed Documents”).

In our examination and for purposes of our opinions, we have assumed with your consent the following:

1.	that (A) all of the representations and statements as to factual matters set forth in the Reviewed Documents (including, without limitation, the Officer’s Certificate) are true, correct, and complete in all material respects as of the date hereof, (B) any representation or statement in the Reviewed Documents (including, without limitation, the Officer’s Certificate) made as a belief or made “to the knowledge of” or similarly qualified is true, correct and complete in all material respects as of the date hereof, without such qualification, (C) each agreement described in the Reviewed Documents is valid and binding in accordance with its terms, and (D) each of the obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries, as described in the Reviewed Documents (including, without limitation, the Officer’s Certificate), has been or will be performed or satisfied in accordance with its terms;
2.	that the Merger will be consummated in accordance with the Merger Agreement (including satisfaction of all pre-closing covenants and conditions to the obligations of the parties without amendment, waiver, or breach thereof);
3.	that the genuineness of all signatures, the proper execution of all documents, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to originals of documents submitted to us as copies, and the authenticity of the originals from which any copies were made;
4.	that any documents as to which we have reviewed only a form were or will be duly executed without material changes from the form reviewed by us;
5.	that the execution and delivery by each party to a document and the performance by such party of its obligations thereunder have been authorized by all necessary measures and do not violate or result in a breach of or default under such party’s articles of incorporation or bylaws or other organizational documents or the laws of such party’s jurisdiction of organization;
6.	that each agreement represents the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter thereof;
7.	that the parties to each agreement have complied, and will comply, with all of their respective covenants, agreements, and undertakings contained therein; and
8.	that from and after the date of this letter, the Company will comply with its representation contained in the Officer’s Certificate that the Company will utilize all appropriate “savings provisions” (including the provisions of Sections 856(c)(6), 856(c)(7), and 856(g) of the Code, and the provision included in Section 856(c)(4) of the Code (flush language) allowing for the disposal of assets within 30 days after the close of a calendar quarter, and all available deficiency dividend procedures) available to the Company under the Code in order to correct any violations of the applicable REIT qualification requirements of Sections 856 and 857 of the Code, to the full extent the remedies under such provisions are available.

Any material variation or difference in the facts from those set forth in the documents that we have reviewed and upon which we have relied (including, in particular, the Officer’s Certificate) may adversely affect the conclusions stated herein.

Although we have discussed the Officer’s Certificate with the signatory thereto, for purposes of rendering our opinions, with your permission, we have not made an independent investigation, audit or verification of any fact set forth in the Reviewed Documents (including, without limitation, any statement or representation in the Officer’s Certificate) or any assumption upon which we have relied. We expressly disclaim any intent, undertaking, or obligation to make any such investigation or verification. We consequently have relied upon the representations and statements of the Company as described in the Reviewed Documents (including, without limitation, the Officer’s Certificate), and assumed that the information presented in such documents or otherwise furnished to us is accurate and complete in all material respects.

Based upon and subject to the assumptions and qualifications set forth herein, including, without limitation, the discussion in the next two paragraphs below, we are of the opinion that:

1.	the Company has been organized and operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code for each of its taxable years beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2011, through its taxable year ended December 31, 2015, and
2.	the Company’s current organization and current and proposed method of operation (as described in the Company’s Officer’s Certificate) will enable it to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code from January 1, 2016, through the Effective Time of the Merger.

The Company’s qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code will depend upon the ability of the Company to meet on an ongoing basis (through actual quarterly and annual operating results, distribution levels, diversity of share ownership and otherwise) the various qualification tests imposed under the Code, and upon the Company utilizing any and all appropriate “savings provisions” (including the provisions of Sections 856(c)(6), 856(c)(7), and 856(g) of the Code and the provision included in Section 856(c)(4) of the Code (flush language) allowing for the disposal of assets within 30 days after the close of a calendar quarter, and all available deficiency dividend procedures) available to the Company under the Code to correct violations of specified REIT qualification requirements of Sections 856 and 857 of the Code. Our opinions set forth above do not foreclose the possibility that the Company may have to utilize one or more of these “savings provisions” in the future, which could require the Company to pay an excise or penalty tax (which could be significant in amount) in order to maintain its REIT qualification. We have not undertaken to review the Company’s compliance with these requirements on a continuing basis. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the actual results of the Company’s operations, the sources of its income, the nature of its assets, the level of its distributions to shareholders and the diversity of its share ownership for any given taxable year will satisfy the requirements under the Code for qualification and taxation as a REIT.

In rendering the following opinions, we have examined such statutes, regulations, records, agreements, certificates and other documents as we have considered necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions, including, but not limited to (including all exhibits and schedules thereto) which we have, with your consent, relied upon (without any independent investigation or review thereof):

In this regard, we have assumed with your consent the following:

that (A) all of the representations and statements as to factual matters set forth in the Reviewed Documents and the Officer’s Certificate are true, correct, and complete in all material respects as of the date hereof, (B) any representation or statement in the Reviewed Documents and the Officer’s Certificate made as a belief or made “to the knowledge of” or similarly qualified is true, correct and complete in all material respects as of the date hereof, without such qualification, (C) each agreement described in the Reviewed Documents is valid and binding in accordance with its terms, and (D) each of the obligations of the Company, Apple Seven and Apple Eight and their subsidiaries, as described in the Reviewed Documents and the Officer’s Certificate, has been or will be performed or satisfied in accordance with its terms;

from and after the date of this letter, the Company will comply with its representation contained in the Officer’s Certificate that the Company will utilize all appropriate “savings provisions” (including the provisions of Sections 856(c)(6), 856(c)(7), and 856(g) of the Code, and the provision included in Section 856(c)(4) of the Code (flush language) allowing for the disposal of assets within 30 days after the close of a calendar quarter, and all available deficiency dividend procedures) available to the Company under the Code in order to correct any violations of the applicable REIT qualification requirements of Sections 856 and 857 of the Code, to the full extent the remedies under such provisions are available, including the deficiency dividend described above;

7.	the Company was organized and operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code for each of its taxable years beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2008 and through its taxable year ended December 31, 2011;
