indebtedness of the Company (or by any Subsidiary, 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, shall
happen and shall result in an aggregate principal amount exceeding $25,000,000 becoming or
being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become
due and payable, without such indebtedness having been discharged, or such acceleration

Section 601, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of such event of default
unless either (A) a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge of such
event of default or (B) the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the
Company, from any Holder, from the holder of any such indebtedness or from the trustee
under any such mortgage, indenture or other instrument; or”.
The amendment to clause five of Section 501 of the Indenture relates solely to the

the Holders of Securities of any other series.
Section 1004 of the Indenture is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:
“Section 1004. Limitations on Incurrence of Debt. (a) The Company will not,

after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Debt, the
aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Debt of the Company
4
and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined in accordance with
GAAP is greater than 65% of the sum of (i) the Undepreciated Real Estate
Assets as of the end of the Company’s fiscal 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 Commission (or, if such
filing is not permitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, with the
Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Debt and (ii) the
increase, if any, in the Undepreciated Real Estate Assets from the end of
such quarter, including, without limitation, any increase in the
Undepreciated Real Estate Assets caused by the application of the proceeds
of additional Debt.
(b) In addition to the limitation set forth in subsection (a) of this
Section 1004, the Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to,
incur any Debt if Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service for the
Company’s four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended before the
date on which such additional Debt is to be incurred shall have been less
than 1.5 times the Maximum Annual Service Charge on the Debt of the Company
and all Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined in accordance with
GAAP to be outstanding immediately after the incurrence of such additional
Debt.
(c) For purposes of this Section 1004, Debt shall be deemed to be
“incurred” by the Company or a Subsidiary whenever the Company or such
Subsidiary shall create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable in
respect thereof.”
The amendment of Section 1004 of the Indenture relates solely to the rights of the
Holders of the Notes and shall not affect the rights under the Indenture of the Holders of
Securities of any other series.

The Company will not, in respect of any shares of any class of its capital

capital stock of the Company) thereon, (b) apply any of its property or
assets to the purchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement
thereof, (c) set apart any sum for the purchase, redemption or other
acquisition or retirement thereof, or (d) make any other distribution
thereon, by reduction of capital or otherwise if, immediately after such
declaration or other action referred to above, the aggregate of all such
declarations and other actions since the date on which this Indenture was
originally executed shall exceed the sum of (i) Funds from Operations from
December 31, 1993 until the end of the Company’s latest fiscal
5
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
Commission (or, if such filing is not permitted under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, with the Trustee) prior to such declaration or other
action and (ii) $20,000,000; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the foregoing
limitation shall not apply to any declaration or other action referred to
above which is necessary to maintain the Company’s status as a “real estate
investment trust” under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, if
the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Debt of the Company and
its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined in accordance with GAAP
at such time is less than 65% of the Undepreciated Real Estate Assets as of
the end of the Company’s latest fiscal 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 Commission (or, if such filing is not
permitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, with the Trustee)
prior to such declaration or other action.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 1005 will not
prohibit the payment of any dividend within 30 days of the declaration
thereof if at such date of declaration such payment would have complied
with the provisions hereof.”
The amendment of Section 1005 of the Indenture relates solely to the rights of the
Holders of the Notes and shall not affect the rights under the Indenture of the Holders of
Securities of any other series.
Section 1015 of the Indenture is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:
“Section 1015. Limitations on Incurrence of Secured Debt. So long as any of
the Designated Securities remain outstanding, 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 Secured Debt and the application of
the proceeds from such Secured Debt, the aggregate amount of all of the
Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ outstanding Secured Debt on a consolidated
basis is greater than 40% of the sum of (i) the Total Assets as of the end
of the Company’s fiscal 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 Commission (or, if such filing is not permitted
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, with the Trustee) prior to the
incurrence of such additional Secured Debt and (ii) the increase, if any, in
Total Assets from the end of such quarter including, without limitation, any
increase in Total Assets caused by the application of the proceeds of
additional Debt.”

The amendment of Section 1015 of the Indenture relates solely to the rights of the
Holders of the Notes and shall not affect the rights under the Indenture of the Holders of
Securities of any other series.

THREE HUNDRED MILLION Dollars ($300,000,000) on April 15, 2018 (the “Stated Maturity Date”), unless
redeemed prior to such date in accordance with the provisions referred to on the reverse hereof
(the Stated Maturity Date or date of earlier redemption, as the case may be, is referred to herein
as the “Maturity Date” with respect to the principal payable on such date), and to pay interest on
the outstanding principal amount hereof from March 7, 2011 or from the most recent Interest Payment
Date (as defined below) to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, on April 15 and
October 15, of each year, commencing October 15, 2011 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), and on

of twelve 30-day months, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for.
A-1
The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment
Date and on the Maturity Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Holder in whose
name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the

7, 2011, if no interest has been paid on this Note) to but excluding such Interest Payment Date or
the Maturity Date, as the case may be. If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on
a day that is not a Business Day, principal, premium, if any, and/or interest payable with respect
to such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be, will be paid on the next
succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if it were paid on the date such payment

Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be. “Business Day” means any day, other
than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions
in New York City, New York, are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to

Note will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at
this place.

[REVERSE OF NOTE]
4.75% Notes Due 2018
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the
“Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of May 1,
1994, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 10, 1995, the Second
Supplemental Indenture dated as of July 18, 2003, the Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of
January 23, 2004, the Fourth Supplemental Indenture dated as of April 22, 2004, the Fifth
Supplemental Indenture dated as of April 28, 2005, the Sixth Supplemental Indenture dated as of
October 7, 2005, the Seventh Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 28, 2006, the Eighth
Supplemental Indenture dated as of March 13, 2007, the Ninth Supplemental Indenture dated as of
September 30, 2009, the Tenth Supplemental Indenture dated as of March 19, 2010, the Eleventh
Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 12, 2010, the Twelfth Supplemental Indenture dated as of
November 5, 2010 and the Thirteenth Supplemental Indenture dated as of March 7, 2011 (herein called
the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as successor trustee to
U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as successor to National City Bank (herein called the
“Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect to the series
of which this Note is a part), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference
is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and
immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and of the
terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one
of the duly authorized series of Securities designated as “4.75% Notes Due 2018” (collectively, the
“Notes”), and the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be issued under such series is limited
to $300,000,000 (except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon transfer of, or in exchange for,
or in lieu of other Notes). The Company may, without the consent of the Holders of any Securities,
create and issue additional notes in the future having the same terms other than the date of
original issuance, the issue price and the date on which interest begins to accrue so as to form a
single series with the Notes. No additional notes may be issued if an Event of Default has
occurred with respect to the Notes. The Notes are the unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of
the Company and rank equally with all existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness
of the Company. All terms used but not defined in this Note shall have the meanings assigned to
such terms in the Indenture.
If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this
series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
The Company may redeem the Notes at its option, at any time prior to the Maturity Date, in
whole or from time to time in part, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the
principal amount of the Notes being redeemed and (b) the sum of the present values of the remaining
scheduled payments of principal and interest through the Maturity Date on the Notes being redeemed
(not including the portion of any payments of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted
to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a
A-4
360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points,
plus, in each case, any interest accrued but not paid to the Redemption Date; provided however,
that if the Company redeems the Notes 60 days or fewer prior to the Stated Maturity Date, the
Redemption Price will equal 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued
and unpaid interest on the amount being redeemed to the Redemption Date. For the avoidance of
doubt, any calculation of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest pursuant to
the preceding sentence shall not include interest accrued as of the applicable Redemption Date.
“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for the Notes, (i) the yield, under
the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most
recently published statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is
published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which established
yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the
caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury
Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the Maturity Date, yields for the two
published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be
determined and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a
straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month) or (ii) if such release (or any successor
release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such
yields, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable
Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a
percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption
Date. The Treasury Rate shall be calculated by the Independent Investment Banker on the third
