Section 3.1 Holders of the Notes shall have the benefit of the
following covenants, in addition to the covenants of the Company set forth in
Article Eight of the Indenture:
(a) Limitations on Incurrence of Debt.
-8-
(i) The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary
to, incur any Debt if, immediately after giving effect to the
incurrence of such additional Debt and the application of the proceeds
thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Debt of the
Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined in
accordance with GAAP is greater than 60% of the sum ("Adjusted Total
Assets") of (without duplication) (A) the Total Assets of the Company
and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the calendar quarter covered in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, or Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (or, if such filing is not permitted under the
Exchange Act with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such
additional Debt and (B) the purchase price of any real estate assets or
mortgages receivable acquired, and the amount of any securities
offering proceeds received (to the extent that such proceeds were not
used to acquire real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to
reduce Debt), by the Company or any Subsidiary since the end of such
calendar quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection with
the incurrence of such additional Debt.
(ii) The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary
to, incur any Secured Debt if, immediately after giving effect to the
incurrence of such additional Secured Debt and the application of the
proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding
Secured Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated
basis is greater than 40% of Adjusted Total Assets.
(iii) The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary
to, incur any Debt if the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for
Debt Service to the Annual Debt Service for the four consecutive fiscal
quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which such additional
Debt is to be incurred shall have been less than 2.0 to 1.0, on a pro
forma basis after giving effect thereto and to the application of the
proceeds therefrom, and calculated on the assumption that (A) such Debt
and any other Debt incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis since the first day of such four-quarter period and
the application of the proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other
Debt, had occurred at the beginning of such period; (B) the repayment
or retirement of any other Debt by the Company and its Subsidiaries
since the first date of such four-quarter period had been repaid or
retired at the beginning of such period (except that, in making such
computation, the amount of Debt under any revolving credit facility
shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Debt
during such period); (C) in the case of Acquired Debt or Debt incurred
in connection with any acquisition since the first day of such
four-quarter period, the related acquisition had occurred as of the
first day of such period with appropriate adjustments with respect to
such acquisition being included in such pro forma calculation; and (D)
in the case of any acquisition or disposition by the Company or its
Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis of any asset or group of assets
since the first day of such four-quarter period, whether by merger,
stock purchase or sale, or asset purchase or sale, such acquisition or
disposition or any related repayment of Debt had occurred as of the
first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect
to such acquisition or disposition being included in such pro forma
calculation. If the Debt giving rise to the need to make the foregoing
calculation or any other Debt incurred after the first day of the
relevant four-quarter period bears
-9-
interest at a floating rate then, for purposes of calculating the
Annual Debt Service, the interest rate on such Debt shall be computed
on a pro forma basis as if the average interest rate which would have
been in effect during the entire such four-quarter period had been the
applicable rate for the entire such period.
(b) Limitations on Distributions. The Company will not, and will not
permit any Subsidiary to, (i) declare or pay any dividend or make any
distribution on or with respect to the Company's Capital Stock (other than (x)

continuing or would occur as a result of such Restricted

by a Board Resolution) made after the date of this
Supplemental Indenture would not exceed the sum of:

and shall not be violated by, (i) any dividend, distribution or other action

conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.1, the Company shall comply with
the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have
breached its obligations under this Section 4.1 by virtue of the compliance.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.1, the
Company shall not be required to make or give notice of a Change of Control
Offer and, if made or given, shall not be required to repurchase Notes on the
related Change of Control Payment Date if, prior to the date on which such
notice or Change of Control Offer is required to be given or made or such Change

redeem the Notes in whole pursuant to Section 2.1(d) of this

applicable Redemption Date, the Company shall become obligated to
commence a Change of Control Offer in accordance with this Article 4 on
such Redemption Date; or

Moody's and Standard & Poor's shall have confirmed that the Notes are
rated "Ba3" (or its equivalent) or higher and "BB-" or higher,

upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in
the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set
forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the
Company and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such
Change of Control Offer.
The provisions of the Indenture relating to the Company's obligation to
make an offer to repurchase the Notes as a result of a Change of Control
(including this Article 4 and clause (a) of Section 5.1) may be waived or
modified with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal
amount of the Notes then outstanding.
Section 4.2. The provisions of Section 4.1 shall terminate and cease to
have further force or effect on or after the first date, if any, on which the
Notes shall have been rated "Baa3" (or its equivalent) or higher by Moody's and
"BBB-" (or its
-13-
equivalent) or higher by Standard & Poor's.

Subsidiary and such judgments or orders shall not be paid or discharged, and

indebtedness of the Company (or by one or more Subsidiaries, the repayment of
which the Company has guaranteed or for which the Company is directly
responsible or liable as obligor or guarantor), whether such indebtedness now
exists or shall hereafter be created, which default(s) shall constitute a
failure to pay an aggregate principal amount exceeding $10,000,000 of such
indebtedness when due and payable after the expiration of any applicable grace
period with respect thereto and shall have resulted in such indebtedness in an
aggregate principal amount exceeding $10,000,000 becoming or being declared due

payable, without such indebtedness having been discharged, or such acceleration
having been rescinded or annulled, within a period of 10 days after there shall

principal amount of the Outstanding Notes a written notice specifying such
default and requiring the Company to cause such indebtedness to be discharged or
cause such acceleration to be rescinded or annulled and stating that such notice
is a "Notice of Default" hereunder, shall constitute an Event of Default.
Section 5.4. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in the
Indenture, upon the acceleration of the Notes in accordance with Section 502 of
the Indenture, the amount
-14-
immediately due and payable in respect of the Notes shall equal the Outstanding

percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time

of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity, and the
Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction
inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such
proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of
indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of

premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed
herein.
