<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Maryland REIT Law permits a Maryland real estate investment trust to include in its
charter a provision limiting the liability of its trustees and officers to the trust and its
shareholders for money damages except for liability resulting from (a)&nbsp;actual receipt of an
improper benefit or profit in money, property or services or (b)&nbsp;active and deliberate dishonesty
that is material to the cause of action as established by a final judgment. Our charter contains
such a provision which eliminates such liability to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our charter authorizes us, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, to indemnify and
to pay or reimburse reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding to (a)&nbsp;any
present or former trustee or officer or (b)&nbsp;any individual who, while a trustee of our company and
at our request, serves or has served another real estate investment trust, corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or any other enterprise as a trustee,
director, officer, partner, employee or agent of such real estate investment trust, corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise from and against any
claim or liability to which such person may become subject or which such person may incur by reason
of his status as a present or former trustee or officer of our company. Our bylaws obligate us, to
the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, to indemnify and to pay or reimburse reasonable
expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding to (a)&nbsp;any present or former trustee or
officer who is made a party to the proceeding by reason of his service in that capacity or (b)&nbsp;any
individual who, while a trustee of our company and at our request, serves or has served another
real estate investment trust, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan
or any other enterprise as a trustee, director, officer or partner of such real estate investment
trust, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise
and who is made a party to the proceeding by reason of his service in that capacity, against any
claim or liability to which he may become subject by reason of such status. Our charter and bylaws
also permit us to indemnify and advance expenses to any person who served our predecessor in any of
the capacities described above and to any employee or agent of our company or a predecessor of our
company. The bylaws require us to indemnify a trustee or officer who has been successful, on the
merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which he is made a party by reason of his
service in that capacity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Maryland REIT Law permits a Maryland real estate investment trust to indemnify and advance
expenses to its trustees, officers, employees and agents to the same extent as permitted by the
Maryland General Corporation Law (the &#147;MGCL&#148;) for directors, officers, employees and agents of
Maryland corporations. The MGCL permits a Maryland corporation to indemnify its present and former
directors and officers, among others, against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and
reasonable expenses actually incurred by them in connection with any proceeding to which they may
be made a party by reason of their service in those or other capacities unless it is established
that (a)&nbsp;the act or omission of the director or officer was material to the matter giving rise to
the proceeding and (i)&nbsp;was committed in bad faith or (ii)&nbsp;was the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty, (b)&nbsp;the director or officer actually received an improper benefit in money, property or
services or (c)&nbsp;in the case of any criminal proceeding, the director or officer had reasonable
cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. However, a Maryland corporation may not
indemnify for an adverse judgment in a suit by or in the right of the corporation or for a judgment
of liability on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received, unless in either case a
court orders indemnification and then only for expenses. In accordance with the MGCL, our bylaws
require us, as a condition to advancing expenses, to obtain (x)&nbsp;a written affirmation by the
trustee or officer of such trustee&#146;s or officer&#146;s good faith belief that he or she has met the
standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by us as authorized by our bylaws and (y)&nbsp;a
written statement by or on his or her behalf to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by us if it
shall ultimately be determined that the standard of conduct was not met.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Maryland REIT Law permits a Maryland real estate investment trust to include in its
charter a provision limiting the liability of its trustees and officers to the trust and its
shareholders for money damages except for liability resulting from (a) actual receipt of an
improper benefit or profit in money, property or services or (b) active and deliberate dishonesty
that is material to the cause of action as established by a final judgment. Our charter contains
such a provision which eliminates such liability to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law.
Our charter authorizes us, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, to indemnify and
to pay or reimburse reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding to (a) any
present or former trustee or officer or (b) any individual who, while a trustee of our company and
at our request, serves or has served another real estate investment trust, corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or any other enterprise as a trustee,
director, officer, partner, employee or agent of such real estate investment trust, corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise from and against any
claim or liability to which such person may become subject or which such person may incur by reason
of his status as a present or former trustee or officer of our company. Our bylaws obligate us, to
the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, to indemnify and to pay or reimburse reasonable
expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding to (a) any present or former trustee or
officer who is made a party to the proceeding by reason of his service in that capacity or (b) any
individual who, while a trustee of our company and at our request, serves or has served another
real estate investment trust, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan
or any other enterprise as a trustee, director, officer or partner of such real estate investment
trust, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise
and who is made a party to the proceeding by reason of his service in that capacity, against any
claim or liability to which he may become subject by reason of such status. Our charter and bylaws
also permit us to indemnify and advance expenses to any person who served our predecessor in any of
the capacities described above and to any employee or agent of our company or a predecessor of our
company. The bylaws require us to indemnify a trustee or officer who has been successful, on the
merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which he is made a party by reason of his
service in that capacity.
The Maryland REIT Law permits a Maryland real estate investment trust to indemnify and advance
expenses to its trustees, officers, employees and agents to the same extent as permitted by the
Maryland General Corporation Law (the "MGCL") for directors, officers, employees and agents of
Maryland corporations. The MGCL permits a Maryland corporation to indemnify its present and former
directors and officers, among others, against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and
reasonable expenses actually incurred by them in connection with any proceeding to which they may
be made a party by reason of their service in those or other capacities unless it is established
that (a) the act or omission of the director or officer was material to the matter giving rise to
the proceeding and (i) was committed in bad faith or (ii) was the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty, (b) the director or officer actually received an improper benefit in money, property or
services or (c) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the director or officer had reasonable
cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. However, a Maryland corporation may not
indemnify for an adverse judgment in a suit by or in the right of the corporation or for a judgment
of liability on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received, unless in either case a
court orders indemnification and then only for expenses. In accordance with the MGCL, our bylaws
require us, as a condition to advancing expenses, to obtain (x) a written affirmation by the
trustee or officer of such trustee's or officer's good faith belief that he or she has met the
standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by us as authorized by our bylaws and (y) a
written statement by or on his or her behalf to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by us if it
shall ultimately be determined that the standard of conduct was not met.

Item 9. Undertakings.
(a)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective
amendment to this registration statement:
(i)
To include any prospectus required by Section
10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or
events arising after the effective date of the registration statement
(or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered
(if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that
which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the
aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20%
change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
"Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration
statement;
(iii)
To include any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
registration statement or any material change to such information in
the registration statement;
4
Table of Contents
provided, however,
that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration
statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment
by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the
registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15
U.S.C. 78m or 78(d)) that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each
such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act
of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant
undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this
registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the
purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following
communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered
to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i)
Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the
undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed
pursuant to Rule 424 (§230.424 of this chapter);
(ii)
Any free writing prospectus relating to the
offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used
or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
(iii)
The portion of any other free writing
prospectus relating to the offering containing material information
about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on
behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv)
Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the
undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant
to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable,
each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at the time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering
thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with
the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
