The amendment shall prohibit (a) any existing stockholder who beneficially owns a total amount or value in excess of 9.9% of our stock from beneficially owning in excess of a total amount or value of our stock that may cause the Corporation to violate certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, relating to real estate investment trusts and (b) any other person from beneficially owning a total amount or value of 9.9% or more of any class or series of common stock and preferred stock of the Corporation.

The terms "Transfers" and "Transferred" shall have the correlative meanings.

(2) OWNERSHIP LIMITATION.

(A) Except as provided in Article X(11) and (19), and subject to clause (B)

below, until the Restriction Termination Date:

(i) no Person shall Beneficially Own Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit with respect to such Person;

(ii) any Transfer that, if effective, would result in any Person Beneficially Owning Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit with respect to such Person shall be void ab initio as to the Transfer of such Shares which would be otherwise Beneficially Owned by such Person in excess of the Ownership Limit; and the intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such Shares;

(iii) any Transfer that, if effective, would result in the Shares being beneficially owned (as provided in Section 856(a) of the Code) by less than 100 Persons (determined without reference to any rules of attribution) shall be void ab initio as to the Transfer of such Shares which would be otherwise beneficially owned (as provided in Section 856(a) of the Code) by the transferee; and the intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such Shares.

(iv) any Transfer that, if effective, would result in the Corporation being "closely held" within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code shall be void ab initio as to the Transfer of the Shares which would cause the Corporation to be "closely held" within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code; and the intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such Shares.

(B) Nothing contained in this Article X shall preclude the settlement of any transaction entered into through the facilities of the New York Stock Exchange. The fact that the settlement of any transaction occurs or takes place shall not negate the effect of any other provision of this Article X and any transferee in such a transaction shall be subject to all of the provisions and limitations set forth in this Article X.

(3) EXCESS SHARES.

(A) In the event that, notwithstanding the other provisions contained in this Article X, at any time until the Restriction Termination Date, there is a purported Transfer such that any Person would Beneficially Own Shares in excess of such Person's Ownership Limit, then, except as otherwise provided in Article X(11), Shares directly owned by such Person in excess of such Person's Ownership Limit shall be automatically designated as Excess Shares (without reclassification) until such Person does not own Shares in excess of such Person's Ownership Limit. The designation of such Shares as Excess Shares shall be effective as of the close of business on the business day prior to the date of the purported Transfer. If, after designation of such Shares owned directly by a Person as Excess Shares, such Person still owns Shares in excess of such Person's Ownership Limit, Shares Beneficially Owned by such Person constructively in excess of such Person's Ownership Limit shall be designated as Excess Shares until such Person does not own Shares in excess of such Person's Ownership Limit. Where such Person owns Shares constructively through one or more Persons and the Shares held by such other Persons must be designated as Excess Shares, the designation of Shares as Excess Shares held by such other Persons shall be pro rata.

(B) If, notwithstanding the other provisions contained in this Article X, at any time until the Restriction Termination Date, there is a purported Transfer of Shares or any sale, transfer, gift, assignment, devise or other disposition of shares or other interests of a direct or indirect stockholder of the Corporation which, if effective, would cause the Corporation to become "closely held" within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code, then any Shares being Transferred which would cause the Corporation to be "closely held" within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code (rounded up to the nearest whole Share) shall be automatically designated as Excess Shares and be treated as provided in this Article X. Such designation and treatment shall be effective as of the close of business on the business day prior to the date of the purported Transfer. If, after the designation of any such Shares as Excess Shares, the Corporation is still "closely held" within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code, an amount of Shares owned directly by any Person whose Beneficial Ownership of Shares in the Corporation increased as a result of the sale, transfer, gift, assignment, devise or other disposition of shares or other interests of a direct or indirect stockholder of the Corporation and is one of the five Persons who caused the Corporation to be "closely held" within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code, shall be automatically designated as Excess Shares until the Corporation is not "closely held" within the meaning of
Section 856(h) of the Code. Where several similarly situated Persons exist, the designation of Shares as Excess Shares shall be pro rata. If, after applying the foregoing provisions the Corporation is still "closely held" within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code, any Shares constructively owned by such Persons shall be designated as Excess Shares, on a pro rata basis among similarly situated Persons, until the Corporation is not "closely held" within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code.

(C) If, at any time until the Restriction Termination Date, an event other than a purported Transfer (an "Event") occurs which would cause any Person to Beneficially Own Shares in excess of such Person's Ownership Limit, then, except as otherwise provided in Article X(11), Shares Beneficially Owned by such Person in excess of such Person's Ownership Limit shall be automatically designated as Excess Shares to the extent necessary to eliminate such excess ownership. The designation of Shares as Excess Shares shall be effective as of the close of business on the business day prior to the date of the Event. In determining which Shares are designated as Excess Shares, Shares Beneficially Owned by any Person who caused the Event to occur shall be designated as Excess Shares before any Shares not so held are designated. Where several similarly situated Persons exist, the designation of Shares as Excess Shares shall be pro rata. If any Person is required to designate Shares as Excess Shares pursuant to this subsection (C), such Person shall first designate Shares directly held by such Person before designating Shares Beneficially Owned constructively. Where such Person owns Shares constructively through one or more Persons and the Shares held by such other Persons must be designated as Excess Shares, the designation of Shares by such other Persons shall be pro rata.

(4) PREVENTION OF TRANSFER. If the Board of Directors or its designee shall at any time determine in good faith that a Transfer has taken place in violation of Article X(2) or that a Person intends to acquire or has attempted to acquire Beneficial Ownership (determined with or without reference to any rules of attribution) of any Shares in violation of Article X(2), the Board of Directors or its designee shall take such action as it deems advisable to refuse to give effect to or to prevent such Transfer, including, but not limited to, refusing to give effect to such Transfer on the books of the Corporation or instituting proceedings to enjoin such Transfer; provided, however, that any Transfers or attempted Transfers in violation of Article X(2) shall automatically result in the designation and treatment described in Article X(3), irrespective of any action (or non-action) by the Board of Directors.

(5) NOTICE TO CORPORATION. Any Person who acquires or attempts to acquire Shares in violation of Article X(2), or any Person who is a transferee such that Excess Shares result under Article X(3), shall immediately give written notice or, in the event of a proposed or attempted Transfer, give at least 15 days prior written notice to the Corporation of such event. Such person shall also provide to the Corporation such other information as the Corporation may request in order to determine the effect, if any, of such Transfer or attempted Transfer on the Corporation's status as a REIT and shall execute and deliver such instruments and provide such further cooperation and assistance as the Board of Directors deems advisable to preserve the status of the Corporation as a REIT.

(6) INFORMATION FOR CORPORATION. Until the Restriction Termination Date:

(A) every Beneficial Owner of more than 1% (or such other lower percentages as required pursuant to regulations under the Code) of the number or value of any class or series of Common Stock or Preferred Stock of the Corporation shall, within 30 days after January 1 of each year, give written notice to the Corporation stating the name and address of such Beneficial Owner, the number of Shares of such class or series of Common Stock or Preferred Stock Beneficially Owned, and a description of how such Shares are held. Each such Beneficial Owner shall provide to the Corporation such additional information as the Corporation may reasonably request in order to determine the effect, if any, of such Beneficial Ownership on the Corporation's status as a REIT and to ensure compliance with such Person's Ownership Limit.

(B) each Person who is a Beneficial Owner of Shares and each Person (including the stockholder of record) who is holding Shares for a Beneficial Owner shall provide to the Corporation in writing such information with respect to direct, indirect and constructive ownership of Shares as the Board of Directors deems reasonably necessary to comply with the provisions of the Code applicable to a REIT, to determine the Corporation's status as a REIT, to comply with the requirements of any taxing authority or governmental agency or to determine any such compliance.

(7) OTHER ACTION BY BOARD. Subject to Article X(2), nothing contained in this Article X shall limit the authority of the Board of Directors to take such other action as it deems necessary or advisable to protect the Corporation and the interests of its stockholders by preservation of the Corporation's status as a REIT; provided, however, that no provision of this subsection 7 shall preclude the settlement of any transaction entered into through the facilities of the New York Stock Exchange.

(8) AMBIGUITIES. In the case of an ambiguity in the application of any of the provisions of this Article X, including any definition contained in Article X(1), the Board of Directors shall have the power to determine the application of the provisions of this Article X with respect to any situation based on the facts known to it. In the event this Article X requires or permits an action by the Board of Directors and the Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended, fails to provide specific guidance with respect to such action, the Board of Directors shall have the power to determine the action to be taken so long as such action is not contrary to the provisions of Article X.

(9) INCREASE OR DECREASE IN OWNERSHIP LIMIT. Subject to the limitations provided in Article X(10), the Board of Directors may from time to time increase or decrease such Person's Ownership Limit; provided, however, that any decrease may only be made prospectively as to subsequent holders (other than a decrease as a result of a retroactive change in existing law that would require a decrease to retain REIT status, in which case such decrease shall be effective immediately).

(10) LIMITATIONS ON CHANGES IN OWNERSHIP LIMITS.

(A) The Ownership Limit may not be increased if, after giving effect to such increase, five or fewer individual Beneficial Owners of Shares could Beneficially Own, in the aggregate, more than 49% in number or value of the outstanding Shares.

(B) Prior to the modification of any Ownership Limit pursuant to Article X(9), the Board of Directors may require such opinions of counsel, affidavits, undertakings or agreements as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to determine or ensure the Corporation's status as a REIT.

(11) WAIVERS BY THE BOARD. The Board of Directors with a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, an opinion of counsel to the effect that such exemption will not result in the Corporation being "closely held" within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code, or such other evidence as the Board of Directors deems necessary in its sole discretion may exempt, on such conditions and terms as the Board of Directors deems necessary in its sole discretion, a Person from such Person's Ownership Limit if the Board of Directors obtains such representations and undertakings from such Person as the Board of Directors may deem appropriate and such Person agrees that any violation of the terms of such exemption or attempted violation of the same will result in, to the extent necessary, the designation of Shares held by such Person as Excess Shares in accordance with Article X(3).

(12) LEGEND. Each certificate for Shares:

(a) shall state that the Corporation will furnish a full statement about certain restrictions on transferability to a stockholder on request and without charge; or

(B) shall bear substantially the following legend:

"The securities represented by this certificate are subject to restrictions on ownership and transfer for the purpose of the Corporation's maintenance of its status as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Except as otherwise provided pursuant to the Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended, no Person may Beneficially Own Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit (as defined in the Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended) or such greater percentage as may be determined by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, of the number or value of the outstanding Shares of any class or series of the Common Stock or Preferred Stock of the Corporation. Any Person who attempts or proposes to Beneficially Own Shares in excess of the above limitations must notify the Corporation in writing at least 15 days prior to such proposed or attempted Transfer. All capitalized terms in this legend have the meanings defined in the Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended, a copy of which, including the restrictions on transfer, will be furnished to each stockholder on request and without charge. If the restrictions on transfer are violated, the securities represented hereby which are in excess of the above limitations will be designated and treated as Excess Shares which will be held in trust by the Excess Share Trustee for the benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary."

(13) SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Article X or any application of any such provision is determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable by any court having jurisdiction over the issue, the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall be affected only to the extent necessary to comply with the determination of such court.

(14) TRANSFER OF EXCESS SHARES. Upon any purported Transfer that results in Excess Shares pursuant to Article X(3), such Excess Shares shall be deemed to have been transferred on the day prior to the date of the purported Transfer that results in such Excess Shares to the Excess Share Trustee, as trustee of a special trust for the exclusive benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary. The Corporation shall name a Charitable Beneficiary, if one does not already exist, within five days of the discovery of any designation of any Excess Shares; however, the failure to so name a Charitable Beneficiary shall not affect the designation of Shares as Excess Shares or the transfer thereof to the Excess Share Trustee. Excess Shares so held in trust shall be issued and outstanding Shares of the Corporation. The Purported Record Transferee or Purported Record Holder shall have no rights in such Excess Shares except as provided in Article X(17).

(15) DISTRIBUTIONS ON EXCESS SHARES. Any dividends (whether taxable as a dividend, return of capital or otherwise) on Excess Shares shall be paid to the Excess Share Trust for the benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the Purported Record Transferee shall receive, for each Excess Share, the lesser of (A) the amount per share of any distribution made upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up or (B) the price paid by the Purported Record Transferee for the Excess Shares, or if the Purported Record Transferee did not give value for the Excess Shares, the Fair Market Value of the Excess Shares on the day of the event causing the Excess Shares to be held in trust. Any such dividend paid or distribution paid to the Purported Record Transferee in excess of the amount provided in the preceding sentence prior to the discovery by the Corporation that the Shares with respect to which the dividend or distribution was made had been designated as Excess Shares shall be repaid, upon demand, to the Excess Share Trust for the benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary.

(16) VOTING OF EXCESS SHARES. The Excess Share Trustee shall be entitled to vote the Excess Shares on behalf of the Charitable Beneficiary on any matter. Subject to Maryland law, any vote cast by a Purported Record Transferee with respect to the Excess Shares prior to the discovery by the Corporation that the Excess Shares were held in trust will be rescinded ab initio; provided, however, that if the Corporation has already taken irreversible action with respect to a merger, reorganization, sale of all or substantially all the assets, dissolution of the Corporation or other action by the Corporation, then the vote cast by the Purported Record Transferee shall not be rescinded. The owner of the Excess Shares will be deemed to have given an irrevocable proxy to the Excess Share Trustee to vote the Excess Shares for the benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article X, until the Corporation has received notification that Excess Shares have been transferred into an Excess Share Trust, the Corporation shall be entitled to rely on its share transfer and other stockholder records for purposes of preparing lists of stockholders entitled to vote at meetings, determining the validity and authority of proxies and otherwise conducting votes of stockholders.

(17) NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF EXCESS SHARES. Excess Shares shall be transferable only as provided in this Section 17. The Excess Share Trustee may, in the event that the Corporation waives its purchase rights under Section 18, transfer the Shares held in the Excess Share Trust to a Person or Persons whose ownership of such Shares will not violate such Person's Ownership Limit. If such a transfer is made to such a Person or Persons, the interest of the Charitable Beneficiary shall terminate and proceeds of the sale shall be payable to the Purported Record Transferee and to the Charitable Beneficiary. The Purported Record Transferee shall receive the lesser of (A) the price paid by the Purported Record Transferee for the Shares or, if the Purported Record Transferee did not give value for the Shares, the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the day of the event causing the Shares to be held in trust, or (B) the price received by the Excess Share Trust from the sale or other disposition of the Shares. Any proceeds in excess of the amount payable to the Purported Record Transferee will be paid to the Charitable Beneficiary. The Excess Share Trustee shall be under no obligation to obtain the highest possible price for the Excess Shares. Prior to any transfer of any Excess Shares by the Excess Share Trustee, the Corporation must have waived in writing its purchase rights under Section 18. It is expressly understood that the Purported Record Transferee may enforce the provisions of this Section against the Charitable Beneficiary.

If any of the foregoing restrictions on transfer of Excess Shares is determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Purported Record Transferee may be deemed, at the option of the Corporation, to have acted as an agent of the Corporation in acquiring such Excess Shares in Corporation and to hold such Excess Shares on behalf of the Corporation.

(18) CALL BY CORPORATION ON EXCESS SHARES. Excess Shares shall be deemed to have been offered for sale to the Corporation, or its designee, at a price per Share equal to the lesser of (A) the price per Share in the transaction that created such Excess Shares (or, in the case of a devise, gift or other transaction in which no value was given for such Excess Shares, the Fair Market Value at the time of such devise, gift or other transaction) and (B) the Fair Market Value of the Excess Shares on the date the Corporation, or its designee, accepts such offer (the "Redemption Price"). The Corporation shall have the right to accept such offer for a period of ninety days after the later of (x) the date of the purported Transfer which resulted in such Excess Shares and (y) the date the Board of Directors determines in good faith that a Transfer resulting in Excess Shares has occurred, if the Corporation does not receive a notice of such Transfer pursuant to Article X(5) but in no event later than a permitted Transfer pursuant to and in compliance with the terms of Article X(17). Unless the Board of Directors determines that it is in the interests of the Corporation to make earlier payments of all of the amount determined as the Redemption Price per Share in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Redemption Price may be payable at the option of the Board of Directors at any time up to but not later than the five years after the date the Corporation accepts the offer to purchase the Excess Shares. In no event shall the Corporation have an obligation to pay interest to the Purported Record Transferee.

(19) UNDERWRITTEN OFFERINGS. The Ownership Limit shall not apply to the acquisition of Shares or rights, options or warrants for, or securities convertible into, Shares by an underwriter in a public offering; provided that the underwriter makes a timely distribution of such Shares or rights, options or warrants for, or securities convertible into, Shares.

(20) ENFORCEMENT. The Corporation is authorized specifically to seek equitable relief, including injunctive relief, to enforce the provisions of this Article X.

(21) NON-WAIVER No delay or failure on the part of the Corporation or the Board of Directors in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any right of the Corporation or the Board of Directors, as the case may be, except to the extent specifically waived in writing."

(b) These amendments of the Charter have been approved by Corporation's directors and stockholders.

We the undersigned President and Secretary of the Corporation swear under penalties of perjury that the foregoing is a corporate act.
