<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">48-18-502</FONT></FONT> through <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">48-18-508</FONT></FONT> the circumstances governing the indemnification of directors,
officers, employees and agents of a corporation against liability incurred in the course of their official capacities. <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Section&nbsp;48-18-502</FONT></FONT> of the TBCA provides that a
corporation may indemnify any director against liability incurred in connection with a proceeding if (i)&nbsp;the director acted in good faith, (ii)&nbsp;the director reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity with
the corporation, that such conduct was in the corporation&#146;s best interest, or, in all other cases, that his or her conduct was not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and (iii)&nbsp;in connection with any criminal proceeding, the
director had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. In actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, however, the TBCA provides that no indemnification may be made if the director or officer is adjudged to be
liable to the corporation. Similarly, the TBCA prohibits indemnification in connection with any proceeding charging improper personal benefit to a director, if such director is adjudged liable on the basis that a personal benefit was improperly
received. In cases where the director is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding instigated because of his or her status as a director of a corporation, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Section&nbsp;48-18-503</FONT></FONT> of the TBCA mandates that the corporation indemnify the director against reasonable expenses incurred in the proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Section&nbsp;48-18-505</FONT></FONT> of the TBCA provides that a court of competent jurisdiction, upon application, may order that a director or officer be indemnified for reasonable expense if, in consideration of all
relevant circumstances, the court determines that such individual is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification, whether or not the standard of conduct set forth above was met. Officers, employees and agents who are not directors are
entitled, through the provisions of <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Section&nbsp;48-18-507</FONT></FONT> of the TBCA to the same degree of indemnification afforded to directors under Sections <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">48-18-503</FONT></FONT> and <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">48-18-505.</FONT></FONT> </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">MAA&#146;s charter provides that the MAA directors shall not be liable to MAA or its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty, except
for: (1)&nbsp;any breach of the director&#146;s duty of loyalty; (2)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or knowing violation of law; or (3)&nbsp;unlawful distributions under Tennessee law. MAA&#146;s
charter provides further that MAA shall indemnify and advance expenses to a director, officer, employee or agent to the fullest extent permitted under Tennessee law. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The indemnification provisions in the MAA charter and bylaws specifically provide that MAA may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any MAA director
or officer against any liability asserted against and incurred by him in his capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent whether or not MAA would have had the power to indemnify against such liability. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">MAA is party to separate indemnification agreements with each of its directors. Each indemnification agreement provides, among other things, for
indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law and the MAA charter and bylaws against any and all expenses, judgments, damages, fines, excise taxes, liabilities, losses, penalties and amounts paid in settlement of any claim. The
indemnification agreements provide for the advancement or payment of all expenses to the indemnitee. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, may be permitted to the MAA directors and officers pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, MAA has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:18pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

Item 4.
Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5.
Interest of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Tennessee Business Corporation Act (the "TBCA"), sets forth in Sections
48-18-502
through
48-18-508
the circumstances governing the indemnification of directors,
officers, employees and agents of a corporation against liability incurred in the course of their official capacities.
Section 48-18-502
of the TBCA provides that a
corporation may indemnify any director against liability incurred in connection with a proceeding if (i) the director acted in good faith, (ii) the director reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity with
the corporation, that such conduct was in the corporation's best interest, or, in all other cases, that his or her conduct was not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and (iii) in connection with any criminal proceeding, the
director had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. In actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, however, the TBCA provides that no indemnification may be made if the director or officer is adjudged to be
liable to the corporation. Similarly, the TBCA prohibits indemnification in connection with any proceeding charging improper personal benefit to a director, if such director is adjudged liable on the basis that a personal benefit was improperly
received. In cases where the director is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding instigated because of his or her status as a director of a corporation,
Section 48-18-503
of the TBCA mandates that the corporation indemnify the director against reasonable expenses incurred in the proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Section 48-18-505
of the TBCA provides that a court of competent jurisdiction, upon application, may order that a director or officer be indemnified for reasonable expense if, in consideration of all
relevant circumstances, the court determines that such individual is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification, whether or not the standard of conduct set forth above was met. Officers, employees and agents who are not directors are
entitled, through the provisions of
Section 48-18-507
of the TBCA to the same degree of indemnification afforded to directors under Sections
48-18-503
and
48-18-505.
MAA's charter provides that the MAA directors shall not be liable to MAA or its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty, except
for: (1) any breach of the director's duty of loyalty; (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or knowing violation of law; or (3) unlawful distributions under Tennessee law. MAA's
charter provides further that MAA shall indemnify and advance expenses to a director, officer, employee or agent to the fullest extent permitted under Tennessee law.
The indemnification provisions in the MAA charter and bylaws specifically provide that MAA may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any MAA director
or officer against any liability asserted against and incurred by him in his capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent whether or not MAA would have had the power to indemnify against such liability.
MAA is party to separate indemnification agreements with each of its directors. Each indemnification agreement provides, among other things, for
indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law and the MAA charter and bylaws against any and all expenses, judgments, damages, fines, excise taxes, liabilities, losses, penalties and amounts paid in settlement of any claim. The
indemnification agreements provide for the advancement or payment of all expenses to the indemnitee.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, may be permitted to the MAA directors and officers pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, MAA has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable.
