General
Equity Residential (EQR), formed in March 1993, is a fully integrated real estate company engaged in the acquisition, development, ownership, management and operation of multifamily properties. EQR has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (REIT).
The Company is one of the largest publicly traded real estate companies and is the largest publicly traded owner of multifamily properties (based on the aggregate market value of its outstanding Common Shares, the number of apartment units wholly owned and total revenues earned). The Companys corporate headquarters are located in Chicago, Illinois and the Company also leases (under operating leases) approximately thirty-five divisional, regional and area property management offices throughout the United States.
EQR is the general partner of, and as of December 31, 2004 owned an approximate 93.3% ownership interest in ERP Operating Limited Partnership, an Illinois limited partnership (the Operating Partnership). The Company is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT (UPREIT), under which all property ownership and business operations are conducted through the Operating Partnership and its various subsidiaries. References to the Company include EQR, the Operating Partnership and each of the partnerships, limited liability companies and corporations controlled by the Operating Partnership or EQR.
As of December 31, 2004, the Company, directly or indirectly through investments in title holding entities, owned all or a portion of 939 properties in 32 states and the District of Columbia consisting of 200,149 units. The ownership breakdown includes:

Business Objectives and Operating Strategies
The Company seeks to maximize both current income and long-term growth in income, thereby increasing:
the value of the properties;
distributions on a per Common Share basis; and
shareholders value.
4
The Companys strategy for accomplishing these objectives include:
Leveraging our size and scale in four critical ways:
Investing or recycling capital investments in apartment communities located in strategically targeted markets, to maximize our total return on an enterprise level;
Meeting the needs of our customers by offering a wide array of product choices and a commitment to service;
Engaging, retaining, and attracting the best people by providing them with the education, resources and opportunities to succeed; and
Sharing resources, customers and best practices in property management and across the enterprise.
Owning a highly diversified portfolio by investing in target markets defined by a combination of the following criteria:
High barrier-to-entry (low supply);
Strong economic predictors (high demand); and
Attractive quality of life (high demand and retention).
Giving customers reasons to stay with Equity by providing a range of product options available in our diversified portfolio and by enhancing their experience through our employees and our services.
Being open and responsive to market realities to take advantage of investment opportunities that align with our long-term vision.
Acquisition and Development Strategies
The Company anticipates that future property acquisitions and developments will occur within the United States. Acquisitions and developments may be financed from various sources of capital, which may include retained cash flow, issuance of additional equity and debt securities, sales of properties, joint venture agreements and collateralized and uncollateralized borrowings. In addition, the Company may acquire additional properties in transactions that include the issuance of limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (OP Units) as consideration for the acquired properties. Such transactions may, in certain circumstances, enable the sellers to defer, in part, the recognition of taxable income or gain, which might otherwise result from the sales.
When evaluating potential acquisitions and developments, the Company generally considers the following factors:
the geographic area and type of community;
the location, construction quality, condition and design of the property;
the current and projected cash flow of the property and the ability to increase cash flow;
the potential for capital appreciation of the property;
the terms of resident leases, including the potential for rent increases;
income levels and employment growth trends in the relevant market;
employment and household growth and net migration of the relevant markets population;
the potential for economic growth and the tax and regulatory environment of the community in which the property is located;
the occupancy and demand by residents for properties of a similar type in the vicinity (the overall market and submarket);
5
the prospects for liquidity through sale, financing or refinancing of the property;
the benefits of integration into existing operations;
barriers to entry that would limit competition (zoning laws, building permit availability, supply of undeveloped or developable real estate, local building costs and construction labor costs among other factors);
purchase prices and yields of available existing stabilized communities, if any; and
competition from existing multifamily properties, residential properties under development and the potential for the construction of new multifamily properties in the area.
Disposition Strategies
When evaluating potential dispositions, the Company generally considers the following factors:
low barrier-to-entry (high supply);
weak economic predictors (low demand);
markets where the Company does not intend to establish long-term concentrations;
age or location of a particular property; and
opportunistic selling based on demand and price of high quality assets, including condominium conversions.
The Company generally reinvests the proceeds received from property dispositions primarily to achieve its acquisition and development strategies. In addition, when feasible, the Company may structure these transactions as tax deferred exchanges.
Financing Strategies
The Companys Consolidated Debt-to-Total Market Capitalization Ratio as of December 31, 2004 is presented in the following table. The Company calculates the equity component of its market capitalization as the sum of (i) the total outstanding Common Shares and assumed conversion of all OP Units at the equivalent market value of the closing price of the Companys Common Shares on the New York Stock Exchange; (ii) the Common Share Equivalent of all convertible preferred shares and preference interests/units; and (iii) the liquidation value of all perpetual preferred shares and preference interests outstanding.

Credit Facilities
In May 2002, the Operating Partnership obtained a three-year $700.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility maturing May 29, 2005. Advances under the credit facility bear interest at variable rates based upon LIBOR at various interest periods, plus a spread dependent upon the Operating Partnerships credit rating, or based upon bids received from the lending group. As of December 31, 2004, $150.0 million was outstanding and $65.4 million was restricted (dedicated to support letters of credit and not available for borrowing) on the credit facility. During the year ended December 31, 2004, the weighted average interest rate on borrowings under the line of credit was 1.73%.
The Operating Partnership is currently negotiating a new credit facility to replace or expand its existing facility and fully expects to obtain this at current or improved terms in March or April 2005.
Business Combinations
In January 2002, the Company sold the former Globe Business Resources, Inc. (Globe) furniture rental business it acquired in July 2000 for approximately $30.0 million in cash, which approximated the net book value at the sale date. The Company has retained ownership of the former Globe short-term furnished housing business, which is now known as Equity Corporate Housing (ECH).
For the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company recorded approximately $17.1 million of asset impairment charges related to ECH. Following the guidance in SFAS No. 142, these charges were the result of the Companys decision to reduce the carrying value of ECH to $30.0 million, given the weakness in the economy and managements expectations for near-term performance and were determined based upon a discounted cash flow analysis of the business. This impairment loss is reflected on the consolidated statements of operations as impairment on corporate housing business and on the consolidated balance sheets as a reduction in goodwill, net.
9
Competition
All of the Companys properties are located in developed areas that include other multifamily properties. The number of competitive multifamily properties in a particular area could have a material effect on the Companys ability to lease units at the properties or at any newly acquired properties and on the rents charged. The Company may be competing with other entities that have greater resources than the Company and whose managers have more experience than the Companys managers. In addition, other forms of rental properties and single-family housing provide housing alternatives to potential residents of multifamily properties. Throughout 2003 and 2004, historically low mortgage interest rates coupled with increased residential construction and single-family home sales have had an adverse competitive effect on the Company.
Risk Factors
The following Risk Factors may contain defined terms that are different from those used in the other sections of this report. Unless otherwise indicated, when used in this section, the terms we and us refer to Equity Residential and its subsidiaries, including ERP Operating Limited Partnership.
Set forth below are the risks that we believe are important to investors who purchase or own our common shares of beneficial interest or preferred shares of beneficial interest (which we refer to collectively as Shares); preference interests (Interests) of a subsidiary of ERP Operating Limited Partnership; preference units (Units); or units of limited partnership interest (OP Units) of ERP Operating Limited Partnership, our operating partnership, which are redeemable on a one-for-one basis for common shares or their cash equivalent. In this section, we refer to the Shares, Interests, Units and the OP Units together as our securities, and the investors who own Shares, Interests, Units and/or OP Units as our security holders.
Real property investments are subject to varying degrees of risk and are relatively illiquid. Several factors may adversely affect the economic performance and value of our properties. These factors include changes in the national, regional and local economic climate, local conditions such as an oversupply of multifamily properties or a reduction in demand for our multifamily properties, the attractiveness of our properties to residents, competition from other available multifamily property owners and changes in market rental rates. Our performance also depends on our ability to collect rent from residents and to pay for adequate maintenance, insurance and other operating costs, including real estate taxes, which could increase over time. Also, the expenses of owning and operating a property are not necessarily reduced when circumstances such as market factors and competition cause a reduction in income from the property.
We May be Unable to Renew Leases or Relet Units as Leases Expire
When our residents decide not to renew their leases upon expiration, we may not be able to relet their units. Even if the residents do renew or we can relet the units, the terms of renewal or reletting may be less favorable than current lease terms. Because virtually all of our leases are for apartments, they are generally for terms of no more than one year. If we are unable to promptly renew the leases or relet the units, or if the rental rates upon renewal or reletting are significantly lower than expected rates, then our results of operations and financial condition will be adversely affected. Consequently, our cash flow and ability to service debt and make distributions to security holders would be reduced.
10
New Acquisitions, Developments and/or Condominium Conversion Projects May Fail to Perform as Expected and Competition for Acquisitions May Result in Increased Prices for Properties
We intend to actively acquire and develop multifamily properties for rental operations and/or specifically to convert directly into condominiums as well as upgrade and sell existing properties as individual condominiums. We may underestimate the costs necessary to bring an acquired or condominium conversion property up to standards established for its intended market position or to develop a property. Additionally, we expect that other major real estate investors with significant capital will compete with us for attractive investment opportunities or may also develop properties in markets where we focus our development efforts. This competition may increase prices for multifamily properties or decrease the price we expect to sell individual condominiums. We may not be in a position or have the opportunity in the future to make suitable property acquisitions on favorable terms. We also plan to develop more properties ourselves over the next few years in addition to co-investing with our development partners for either the rental or condominium market, depending on opportunities in each sub-market. This may increase the overall level of risk associated with developments. The total number of development units, cost of development and estimated completion dates are subject to uncertainties arising from changing economic conditions (such as the cost of labor and construction materials), competition and local government regulation.
Because Real Estate Investments Are Illiquid, We May Not Be Able To Sell Properties When Appropriate
Real estate investments generally cannot be sold quickly. We may not be able to change our portfolio promptly in response to economic or other conditions. This inability to respond promptly to changes in the performance of our investments could adversely affect our financial condition and ability to make distributions to our security holders.
Changes in Laws and Litigation Risk Could Affect Our Business
We are generally not able to pass through to our residents under existing leases real estate taxes, income taxes or other taxes. Consequently, any such tax increases may adversely affect our financial condition and limit our ability to make distributions to our security holders. Similarly, changes that increase our potential liability under environmental laws or our expenditures on environmental compliance would adversely affect our cash flow and ability to make distributions on our securities.
As the largest publicly traded owner of multifamily properties, we may become involved in legal proceedings, including but not limited to, consumer, employment, tort and commercial, that if decided adversely to or settled by us, could result in liability material to our financial condition or results of operations.
Environmental Problems are Possible and can be Costly
Federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment may require a current or previous owner or operator of real estate to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum product releases at such property. The owner or operator may have to pay a governmental entity or third parties for property damage and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred by such parties in connection with the contamination. These laws typically impose clean-up responsibility and liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the presence of the contaminants. Even if more than one person may have been responsible for the contamination each person covered by the environmental laws may be held responsible for all of the clean-up costs incurred. In addition, third parties may sue the owner or operator of a site for damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from that site.
Substantially all of our properties have been the subject of environmental assessments completed by qualified independent environmental consultant companies. These environmental assessments have not revealed, nor are we aware of, any environmental liability that our management believes would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.
Over the past four years, there have been an increasing number of lawsuits against owners and managers of multifamily properties other than the Company alleging personal injury and property damage caused by the presence of mold in residential real estate. Some of these lawsuits have resulted in
11
substantial monetary judgments or settlements. Insurance carriers have reacted to these liability awards by excluding mold related claims from standard policies and pricing mold endorsements at prohibitively high rates. We have adopted programs designed to minimize the existence of mold in any of our properties as well as guidelines for promptly addressing and resolving reports of mold to minimize any impact mold might have on residents or the property.
We cannot be assured that existing environmental assessments of our properties reveal all environmental liabilities, that any prior owner of any of our properties did not create a material environmental condition not known to us, or that a material environmental condition does not otherwise exist as to any one or more of our properties.
Insurance Policy Deductibles and Exclusions
In order to partially mitigate the substantial increase in insurance costs in recent years, management has determined to gradually increase deductible and self-insured retention amounts. As of December 31, 2004, the Companys property insurance policy (for Wholly Owned Properties) provides for a per occurrence deductible of $250,000 and self insured retention of $5.0 million per occurrence, subject to a maximum annual aggregate self insured retention of $7.5 million. The Companys liability and workers compensation policies at December 31, 2004, provide for a $1.0 million per occurrence deductible. These higher deductible and self-insured retention amounts do expose the Company to greater potential uninsured losses, such as the property damage caused by Hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne, but management believes the savings in insurance premium expense justifies this increased exposure over the long-term.
As a result of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, property insurance carriers have created exclusions for losses from terrorism from our all risk insurance policies. While separate terrorism insurance coverage is available in certain instances, premiums for such coverage are generally very expensive and deductibles are very high. Additionally, the terrorism insurance coverage that is available typically excludes coverage for losses from nuclear, biological and chemical attacks. At the present time, the Company has determined that it is not economically prudent to obtain property terrorism insurance for its entire portfolio to the extent otherwise available, especially given the significant risks that are not covered by such insurance. As of December 31, 2004, the Companys high-rise properties were insured for $125 million in terrorism insurance coverage, with a $5 million deductible. In the event of a terrorist attack impacting one or more of the properties, we could lose the revenues from the property, our capital investment in the property and possibly face liability claims from residents or others suffering injuries or losses. The Company believes, however, that the number and geographic diversity of its portfolio and its high-rise terrorism insurance coverage help to mitigate its exposure to the risks associated with potential terrorist attacks.

In addition to debt, we have $842.4 million of combined liquidation value of outstanding preferred shares of beneficial interest and preference interests and units, with a weighted average dividend preference of 8.23% per annum, as of December 31, 2004. Our use of debt and preferred equity financing creates certain risks, including the following:
Scheduled Debt Payments Could Adversely Affect Our Financial Condition
In the future, our cash flow could be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest or to pay distributions on our securities at expected levels.
We may not be able to refinance existing debt (which in virtually all cases requires substantial principal payments at maturity) and, if we can, the terms of such refinancing might not be as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness. If principal payments due at maturity cannot be refinanced, extended or paid with proceeds of other capital transactions, such as new equity capital, our cash flow will not be sufficient in all years to repay all maturing debt. As a result, we may be forced to postpone capital expenditures necessary for the maintenance of our properties and may have to dispose of one or more properties on terms that would otherwise be unacceptable to us.

(3) Includes $150 million of unsecured debt with a final maturity of 2026 that is putable in 2006.
Financial Covenants Could Adversely Affect the Companys Financial Condition
If a property we own is mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness and we are unable to meet the mortgage payments, the holder of the mortgage could foreclose on the property, resulting in loss of income and asset value. Foreclosure on mortgaged properties or an inability to refinance existing indebtedness would likely have a negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
The mortgages on our properties may contain customary negative covenants that, among other things, limit our ability, without the prior consent of the lender, to further mortgage the property and to reduce or change insurance coverage. In addition, our unsecured credit facilities contain certain customary restrictions, requirements and other limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness. The indentures under which a substantial portion of our debt was issued also contain certain financial and operating covenants including, among other things, maintenance of certain financial ratios, as well as limitations on our ability to incur secured and unsecured indebtedness (including acquisition financing), and to sell all or substantially all of our assets. Our credit facility and indentures are cross-defaulted and also contain cross default provisions with other material indebtedness. Our unsecured public debt covenants as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, are (terms are defined in the indentures):

Some of the properties were financed with tax-exempt bonds that contain certain restrictive covenants or deed restrictions. We have retained an independent outside consultant to monitor compliance with the restrictive covenants and deed restrictions that affect these properties. If these bond compliance requirements restrict our ability to increase our rental rates to attract low or moderate-income residents, or eligible/qualified residents, then our income from these properties may be limited.
Our Degree of Leverage Could Limit Our Ability to Obtain Additional Financing
Our Consolidated Debt-to-Total Market Capitalization Ratio was 35% as of December 31, 2004. We have a policy of incurring indebtedness for borrowed money only through the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries and only if upon such incurrence our debt to market capitalization ratio would be approximately 50% or less. Our degree of leverage could have important consequences to security holders. For example, the degree of leverage could affect our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, development or other general corporate purposes, making us more vulnerable to a downturn in business or the economy in general.
Rising Interest Rates Could Adversely Affect Cash Flow
Advances under our credit facility bear interest at variable rates based upon LIBOR at various interest periods, plus a spread dependent upon the Operating Partnerships credit rating, or based upon bids received from the lending group. Certain public issuances of our senior unsecured debt instruments may also, from time to time, bear interest at floating rates. We may also borrow additional money with variable interest rates in the future. Increases in interest rates would increase our interest expenses under these debt instruments and would increase the costs of refinancing existing indebtedness and of issuing new debt. Accordingly, higher interest rates could adversely affect cash flow and our ability to service our debt and to make distributions to security holders.
15
We Depend on Our Key Personnel
We depend on the efforts of the Chairman of our Board of Trustees, Samuel Zell, and our executive officers, particularly Bruce W. Duncan, our President and Chief Executive Officer and Gerald A. Spector, our Chief Operating Officer. If they resign, our operations could be temporarily adversely affected. Mr. Zell has entered into executive compensation and retirement benefit agreements with the Company. Mr. Duncan and Mr. Spector have entered into Deferred Compensation Agreements with the Company that under certain conditions could provide both with a salary benefit after their respective termination of employment with the Company. In addition, Mr. Zell and Mr. Spector have entered into Noncompetition Agreements with the Company and Mr. Duncans Employment Agreement contains covenants not to compete in favor of the Company.
In the event the Chairman of the Board and/or CEO are unable to serve, (i) the Lead Trustee shall automatically be appointed to serve as the interim successor to the Chairman, (ii) the Chairman shall automatically be appointed to serve as the interim successor to the CEO and (iii) the Chair of the Compensation Committee of the Board will immediately call a meeting of the Committee to recommend to the full Board the selection of a permanent replacement for either or both positions, as necessary.
Control and Influence by Significant Shareholders Could be Exercised in a Manner Adverse to Other Shareholders
As of December 31, 2004, Samuel Zell, the Chairman of the Board of the Company, and certain of the current holders of OP Units issued to affiliates of Mr. Zell, and our executive officers and trustees, owned some of our common shares. In addition, the consent of certain affiliates of Mr. Zell is required for certain amendments to the Fifth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of ERP Operating Limited Partnership (the Partnership Agreement). As a result of their security ownership and rights concerning amendments to the Partnership Agreement, the Zell affiliates may have influence over the Company. Although these security holders have not agreed to act together on any matter, they would be in a position to exercise even more influence over the Companys affairs if they were to act together in the future. This influence could conceivably be exercised in a manner that is inconsistent with the interests of other security holders. For additional information regarding the security ownership of Mr. Zell and our executive officers and trustees, see the Companys definitive proxy statement.
Shareholders Ability to Effect Changes in Control of the Company is Limited
Provisions of Our Declaration of Trust and Bylaws Could Inhibit Changes in Control
Certain provisions of our Declaration of Trust and Bylaws may delay or prevent a change in control of the Company or other transactions that could provide the security holders with a premium over the then-prevailing market price of their securities or which might otherwise be in the best interest of our security holders. This includes the 5% Ownership Limit described below. See We Have a Share Ownership Limit for REIT Tax Purposes. Also, any future series of preferred shares of beneficial interest may have certain voting provisions that could delay or prevent a change of control or other transactions that might otherwise be in the interest of our security holders.
We Have a Share Ownership Limit for REIT Tax Purposes
To remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, not more than 50% in value of our outstanding Shares may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals at any time during the last half of any year. To facilitate maintenance of our REIT qualification, our Declaration of Trust, subject to certain exceptions, prohibits ownership by any single shareholder of more than 5% of the lesser of the number or value of the outstanding class of common or preferred shares. We refer to this restriction as the Ownership Limit. Absent any exemption or waiver granted by our Board of Trustees, securities acquired or held in violation of the Ownership Limit will be transferred to a trust for the exclusive benefit of a designated charitable beneficiary, and the security holders rights to distributions and to vote would terminate. A transfer of Shares may be void if it causes a person to violate the Ownership Limit. The Ownership Limit could delay or prevent a change in control and, therefore, could adversely affect our security holders ability to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market price for their Shares. To reduce the ability of the Board to use the Ownership Limit as an anti-takeover device, on May 28, 2004 the Company amended the Ownership Limit to require, rather than permit, the Board to grant a waiver of the
16
Ownership Limit if the individual seeking a waiver demonstrates that such ownership would not jeopardize the Companys status as a REIT.
Our Preferred Shares of Beneficial Interest May Affect Changes in Control
Our Declaration of Trust authorizes the Board of Trustees to issue up to 100 million preferred shares of beneficial interest, and to establish the preferences and rights (including the right to vote and the right to convert into common shares) of any preferred shares issued. The Board of Trustees may use its powers to issue preferred shares and to set the terms of such securities to delay or prevent a change in control of the Company, even if a change in control were in the interest of security holders. As of December 31, 2004, 4,108,658 preferred shares were issued and outstanding.
Inapplicability of Maryland Law Limiting Certain Changes in Control
Certain provisions of Maryland law applicable to real estate investment trusts prohibit business combinations (including certain issuances of equity securities) with any person who beneficially owns ten percent or more of the voting power of outstanding securities, or with an affiliate who, at any time within the two-year period prior to the date in question, was the beneficial owner of ten percent or more of the voting power of the trusts outstanding voting securities (an Interested Shareholder), or with an affiliate of an Interested Shareholder. These prohibitions last for five years after the most recent date on which the Interested Shareholder became an Interested Shareholder. After the five-year period, a business combination with an Interested Shareholder must be approved by two super-majority shareholder votes unless, among other conditions, holders of common shares receive a minimum price for their shares and the consideration is received in cash or in the same form as previously paid by the Interested Shareholder for its common shares. As permitted by Maryland law, however, the Board of Trustees of the Company has opted out of these restrictions with respect to any business combination involving the Zell Original Owners and persons acting in concert with any of the Zell Original Owners. Consequently, the five-year prohibition and the super-majority vote requirements will not apply to a business combination involving us and/or any of them. Such business combinations may not be in the best interest of our security holders.
Our Success as a REIT is Dependent on Compliance with Federal Income Tax Requirements
Our Failure to Qualify as a REIT Would Have Serious Adverse Consequences to Our Security Holders
We believe that we have qualified for taxation as a REIT for federal income tax purposes since our taxable year ended December 31, 1992 based, in part, upon opinions of tax counsel received whenever we have issued equity securities or engaged in significant merger transactions. We plan to continue to meet the requirements for taxation as a REIT. Many of these requirements, however, are highly technical and complex. We cannot, therefore, guarantee that we have qualified or will qualify in the future as a REIT. The determination that we are a REIT requires an analysis of various factual matters that may not be totally within our control. For example, to qualify as a REIT, at least 95% of our gross income must come from sources that are itemized in the REIT tax laws. We are also required to distribute to security holders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income excluding capital gains. The fact that we hold our assets through ERP Operating Limited Partnership and its subsidiaries further complicates the application of the REIT requirements. Even a technical or inadvertent mistake could jeopardize our REIT status. Furthermore, Congress and the IRS might make changes to the tax laws and regulations, and the courts might issue new rulings that make it more difficult, or impossible, for us to remain qualified as a REIT. We do not believe, however, that any pending or proposed tax law changes would jeopardize our REIT status.
If we fail to qualify as a REIT, we would be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates. Also, unless the IRS granted us relief under certain statutory provisions, we would remain disqualified as a REIT for four years following the year we first failed to qualify. If we fail to qualify as a REIT, we would have to pay significant income taxes. We, therefore, would have less money available for
17
investments or for distributions to security holders. This would likely have a significant adverse affect on the value of our securities. In addition, we would no longer be required to make any distributions to security holders.
We could be Disqualified as a REIT or Have to Pay Taxes if Our Merger Partners Did Not Qualify as REITs
If any of our recent merger partners had failed to qualify as a REIT throughout the duration of their existence, then they might have had undistributed C corporation earnings and profits at the time of their merger with us. If that was the case and we did not distribute those earnings and profits prior to the end of the year in which the merger took place, we might not qualify as a REIT. We believe based, in part, upon opinions of legal counsel received pursuant to the terms of our merger agreements as well as our own investigations, among other things, that each of our merger partners qualified as a REIT and that, in any event, none of them had any undistributed C corporation earnings and profits at the time of their merger with us. If any of our merger partners failed to qualify as a REIT, an additional concern would be that they would have recognized taxable gain at the time they were merged with us. We would be liable for the tax on such gain. In this event, we would have to pay corporate income tax on any gain existing at the time of the applicable merger on assets acquired in the merger if the assets are sold within ten years of the merger. Finally, we could be precluded from electing REIT status for up to four years after the year in which the predecessor entity failed to qualify for REIT status.
Other Tax Liabilities
Even if we qualify as a REIT, we will be subject to certain federal, state and local taxes on our income and property. In addition, our third-party management operations, corporate housing business and condominium conversion business, which are conducted through subsidiaries, generally will be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates.
Compliance with REIT Distribution Requirements May Affect Our Financial Condition
Distribution Requirements May Increase the Indebtedness of the Company
We may be required from time to time, under certain circumstances, to accrue as income for tax purposes interest and rent earned but not yet received. In such event, or upon our repayment of principal on debt, we could have taxable income without sufficient cash to enable us to meet the distribution requirements of a REIT. Accordingly, we could be required to borrow funds or liquidate investments on adverse terms in order to meet these distribution requirements.
General
The following discussion summarizes the federal income tax considerations material to a holder of common shares. It is not exhaustive of all possible tax considerations. For example, it does not give a detailed discussion of any state, local or foreign tax considerations. The following discussion also does not address all tax matters that may be relevant to prospective shareholders in light of their particular circumstances. Moreover, it does not address all tax matters that may be relevant to shareholders who are subject to special treatment under the tax laws, such as insurance companies, tax-exempt entities, financial institutions or broker-dealers, foreign corporations and persons who are not citizens or residents of the United States.
The specific tax attributes of a particular shareholder could have a material impact on the tax considerations associated with the purchase, ownership and disposition of common shares. Therefore, it is essential that each prospective shareholder consult with his or her own tax advisors with regard to the
18
application of the federal income tax laws to the shareholders personal tax situation, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction.
The information in this section is based on the current Internal Revenue Code, current, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations, the legislative history of the Internal Revenue Code, current administrative interpretations and practices of the Internal Revenue Service, including its practices and policies as set forth in private letter rulings, which are not binding on the Internal Revenue Service, and existing court decisions. Future legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations and court decisions could change current law or adversely affect existing interpretations of current law. Any change could apply retroactively. Thus, it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service could challenge the statements in this discussion, which do not bind the Internal Revenue Service or the courts, and that a court could agree with the Internal Revenue Service.
Our Taxation
We elected REIT status beginning with the year that ended December 31, 1992. In any year in which we qualify as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on the portion of our REIT taxable income or capital gain that we distribute to our shareholders. This treatment substantially eliminates the double taxation that applies to most corporations, which pay a tax on their income and then distribute dividends to shareholders who are in turn taxed on the amount they receive.
We will be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates upon our REIT taxable income or capital gain that we do not distribute to our shareholders. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% excise tax if we do not satisfy specific REIT distribution requirements. We could also be subject to the alternative minimum tax on our items of tax preference. In addition, any net income from prohibited transactions (i.e., dispositions of property, other than property held by a taxable REIT subsidiary, held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business) will be subject to a 100% tax. We could also be subject to a 100% penalty tax on certain payments received from or on certain expenses deducted by a taxable REIT subsidiary if any such transaction is not respected by the Internal Revenue Service. If we fail to satisfy the 75% gross income test or the 95% gross income test (described below) but have maintained our qualification as a REIT because we satisfied certain other requirements, we will still generally be subject to a 100% penalty tax on the amount by which we fail such gross income test. If we fail to satisfy any of the REIT asset tests (described below) by more than a de minimis amount, due to reasonable cause, and we nonetheless maintain our REIT qualification because of specified cure provisions, we will be required to pay a tax equal to the greater of $50,000 or the highest corporate tax rate multiplied by the net income generated by the nonqualifying assets (this relief provision is generally applicable only for our taxable years commencing on or after January 1, 2005). If we fail to satisfy any provision of the Internal Revenue Code that would result in our failure to qualify as a REIT (other than a violation of the REIT gross income or asset tests described below) and the violation is due to reasonable cause, we may retain our REIT qualification but we will be required to pay a penalty of $50,000 for each such failure (this relief provision is generally applicable only for our taxable years commencing on or after January 1, 2005). Moreover, we may be subject to taxes in certain situations and on certain transactions that we do not presently contemplate.
We believe that we have qualified as a REIT for all of our taxable years beginning with 1992. We also believe that our current structure and method of operation is such that we will continue to qualify as a REIT. However, given the complexity of the REIT qualification requirements, we cannot provide any assurance that the actual results of our operations have satisfied or will satisfy the requirements under the Internal Revenue Code for a particular year.
If we fail to qualify for taxation as a REIT in any taxable year and the relief provisions described herein do not apply, we will be subject to tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates. We also may be subject to the corporate alternative minimum tax. As a result, our failure to qualify as a REIT would significantly reduce the cash we have available to distribute to our shareholders. Unless entitled to statutory relief, we would be disqualified as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost. It is not possible to state whether we would be entitled to statutory relief.
19
Our qualification and taxation as a REIT depend on our ability to satisfy various requirements under the Internal Revenue Code. We are required to satisfy these requirements on a continuing basis through actual annual operating and other results. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to operate in a manner so as to remain qualified as a REIT.
Share Ownership Test and Organizational Requirement . In order to qualify as a REIT, our shares of beneficial interest must be held by a minimum of 100 persons for at least 335 days of a taxable year that is 12 months, or during a proportionate part of a taxable year of less than 12 months. Also, not more than 50% in value of our shares of beneficial interest may be owned directly or indirectly by applying certain constructive ownership rules, by five or fewer individuals during the last half of each taxable year. In addition, we must meet certain other organizational requirements, including, but not limited to, that (i) the beneficial ownership in us is evidenced by transferable shares and (ii) we are managed by one or more trustees. We believe that we have satisfied all of these tests and all other organizational requirements and that we will continue to do so in the future. In order to ensure compliance with the 100 person test and the 50% share ownership test discussed above, we have placed certain restrictions on the transfer of our shares that are intended to prevent further concentration of share ownership. However, such restrictions may not prevent us from failing these requirements, and thereby failing to qualify as a REIT.
Gross Income Tests . To qualify as a REIT, we must satisfy two gross income tests. First, at least 75% of our gross income for each taxable year must be derived directly or indirectly from rents from real property, investments in real estate and/or real estate mortgages, dividends paid by another REIT and from some types of temporary investments. Second, at least 95% of our gross income for each taxable year must be derived from any combination of income qualifying under the 75% test and dividends, non-real estate mortgage interest, some payments under hedging instruments and gain from the sale or disposition of stock or securities. To qualify as rents from real property for the purpose of satisfying the gross income tests, rental payments must generally be received from unrelated persons and not be based on the net income of the resident. Also, the rent attributable to personal property must not exceed 15% of the total rent. We may generally provide services to residents without tainting our rental income only if such services are usually or customarily rendered in connection with the rental of real property and not otherwise considered impermissible services. If such services are impermissible, then we may generally provide them only if they are considered de minimis in amount, or are provided through an independent contractor from whom we derive no revenue and that meets other requirements, or through a taxable REIT subsidiary. We believe that services provided to residents by us either are usually or customarily rendered in connection with the rental of real property and not otherwise considered impermissible, or, if considered impermissible services, will meet the de minimis test or will be provided by an independent contractor or taxable REIT subsidiary. However, we cannot provide any assurance that the Internal Revenue Service will agree with these positions.
If we fail to satisfy one or both of the gross income tests for any taxable year, we may nevertheless qualify as a REIT for the year if we are entitled to relief under certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. In this case, a penalty tax would still be applicable as discussed above. Generally, it is not possible to state whether in all circumstances we would be entitled to the benefit of these relief provisions and in the event these relief provisions do not apply, we will not qualify as a REIT.
Asset Tests . In general, at the close of each quarter of our taxable year, we must satisfy four tests relating to the nature of our assets: (1) at least 75% of the value of our total assets must be represented by real estate assets (which include for this purpose shares in other real estate investment trusts) and certain cash related items; (2) not more than 25% of our total assets may be represented by securities other than those in the 75% asset class; (3) except for equity investments in other REITs, qualified REIT subsidiaries (i.e., corporations owned 100% by a REIT that are not TRSs or REITs), or taxable REIT subsidiaries: (a) the value of any one issuers securities owned by us may not exceed 5% of the value of our total assets and (b) we may not own more than 10% of the value of or the voting securities of any one issuer; and (4) not more than 20% of our total assets may be represented by securities of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries. Securities for purposes of the asset tests described in (3) above may include debt securities other than those qualifying as "straight debt". We currently own equity interests in certain entities that have elected to be taxed as REITs for federal income tax purposes and are not publicly traded. If any such entity were to fail to qualify as a REIT, we would not meet the
20
10% voting stock limitation and the 10% value limitation and we would fail to qualify as a REIT. We believe that we and each of the REITs we own an interest in have and will comply with the foregoing asset tests for REIT qualification. However, we cannot provide any assurance that the Internal Revenue Service might not disagree with our determinations.
For taxable years commencing on or after January 1, 2005, if we fail to satisfy the 5% or 10% asset tests described above after a 30-day cure period provided in the Internal Revenue Code, we will be deemed to have met such tests if the value of our non-qualifying assets is de minimis (i.e., does not exceed the lesser of 1% of the total value of our assets at the end of the applicable quarter or $10,000,000) and we dispose of the non-qualifying assets within six months after the last day of the quarter in which the failure to satisfy the asset tests is discovered. For violations due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect that are in excess of the de minimis exception described above, we may avoid disqualification as a REIT under any of the asset tests, after the 30-day cure period, by disposing of sufficient assets to meet the asset test within such six month period, paying a tax equal to the greater of $50,000 or the highest corporate tax rate multiplied by the net income generated by the non-qualifying assets and disclosing certain information to the Internal Revenue Service. If we cannot avail ourselves of these relief provisions, or if we fail to timely cure any noncompliance with the asset tests, we would cease to qualify as a REIT.
Annual Distribution Requirements . To qualify as a REIT, we are generally required to distribute dividends, other than capital gain dividends, to our shareholders each year in an amount at least equal to 90% of our REIT taxable income. These distributions must be paid either in the taxable year to which they relate, or in the following taxable year if declared before we timely file our tax return for the prior year and if paid with or before the first regular dividend payment date after the declaration is made. We intend to make timely distributions sufficient to satisfy our annual distribution requirements. To the extent that we do not distribute all of our net capital gain or distribute at least 90%, but less than 100% of our REIT taxable income, as adjusted, we are subject to tax on these amounts at regular corporate rates. We will be subject to a 4% excise tax on the excess of the required distribution over the sum of amounts actually distributed and amounts retained for which federal income tax was paid, if we fail to distribute during each calendar year at least the sum of: (1) 85% of our REIT ordinary income for the year; (2) 95% of our REIT capital gain net income for the year; and (3) any undistributed taxable income from prior taxable years. A REIT may elect to retain rather than distribute all or a portion of its net capital gains and pay the tax on the gains. In that case, a REIT may elect to have its shareholders include their proportionate share of the undistributed net capital gains in income as long-term capital gains and receive a credit for their share of the tax paid by the REIT. For purposes of the 4% excise tax described above, any retained amounts would be treated as having been distributed.
Ownership of Partnership Interests By Us . As a result of our ownership of the Operating Partnership, we will be considered to own and derive our proportionate share of the assets and items of income of the Operating Partnership, respectively, for purposes of the REIT asset and income tests, including its share of assets and items of income of any subsidiaries that are partnerships or limited liability companies.
Ownership of Taxable REIT Subsidiaries By Us . The Internal Revenue Code provides that for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2000, REITs may own greater than ten percent of the voting power and value of the securities of "taxable REIT subsidiaries" or "TRSs", which are corporations subject to tax as a regular "C" corporation that have elected, jointly with a REIT, to be a TRS. Generally, a taxable REIT subsidiary may own assets that cannot otherwise be owned by a REIT and can perform impermissible tenant services (discussed above), which would otherwise taint our rental income under the REIT income tests. In certain circumstances, assets owned by us are sold to our TRSs. In any such sale, the price paid by the TRS to us is determined on an arms length basis and is supported by third party valuation reports. In enacting the taxable REIT subsidiary rules, Congress intended that the arrangements between a REIT and its taxable REIT subsidiaries be structured to ensure that a taxable REIT subsidiary will be subject to an appropriate level of federal income taxation. As a result, the Internal Revenue Code imposes certain limits on the ability of a taxable REIT subsidiary to deduct interest payments made to us. In addition as discussed above, we will be obligated to pay a 100% penalty tax on some payments that we receive or on certain expenses deducted by our TRSs if the economic arrangements between us, our tenants and the TRS are not comparable to similar arrangements among unrelated parties.
Our Management Company and Other Subsidiaries . A small portion of the cash to be used by the Operating Partnership to fund distributions to us is expected to come from payments of dividends from management companies and other subsidiaries of the Company that have elected TRS status. These companies pay federal and state income tax at the full applicable corporate rates. They will attempt to minimize the amount of these taxes, but we cannot guarantee whether or the extent to which, measures taken to minimize these taxes will be successful. To the extent that these companies are required to pay taxes, the cash available for distribution from these management companies by us to shareholders will be reduced accordingly.
State and Local Taxes . We may be subject to state or local taxation in various jurisdictions, including those in which we transact business or reside. Our state and local tax treatment may not conform to the federal income tax treatment discussed above. Consequently, prospective shareholders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the effect of state and local tax laws on an investment in common shares.
Taxation of Domestic Shareholders Subject to U.S. Tax
General . If we qualify as a REIT, distributions made to our taxable domestic shareholders with respect to their common shares, other than capital gain distributions and distributions attributable to taxable REIT subsidiaries, will be treated as ordinary income to the extent that the distributions come out of earnings and profits. These distributions will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction for shareholders that are corporations nor will they constitute qualified dividend income under the Internal Revenue Code, meaning that such dividends will be taxed at marginal rates applicable to ordinary income rather than the special capital gain rates applicable to qualified dividend income distributed to shareholders who satisfy applicable holding period requirements. In determining whether

distributions are out of earnings and profits, we will allocate our earnings and profits first to preferred shares and second to the common shares. The portion of ordinary dividends, made after December 31, 2002, which represent ordinary dividends we receive from a TRS, will be designated as qualified dividend income to REIT shareholders and are eligible for preferential tax rates if paid to our non-corporate shareholders.
To the extent we make distributions to our taxable domestic shareholders in excess of our earnings and profits, such distributions will be considered a return of capital. Such distributions will be treated as a tax-free distribution and will reduce the tax basis of a shareholders common shares by the amount of the distribution so treated. To the extent such distributions cumulatively exceed a taxable domestic shareholders tax basis; such distributions are taxable as a gain from the sale of shares. Shareholders may not include in their individual income tax returns any of our net operating losses or capital losses.
Distributions made by us that we properly designate as capital gain dividends will be taxable to taxable domestic shareholders as gain from the sale or exchange of a capital asset held for more than one year. This treatment applies only to the extent that the designated distributions do not exceed our actual net capital gain for the taxable year. It applies regardless of the period for which a domestic shareholder has held his or her common shares. Despite this general rule, corporate shareholders may be required to treat up to 20% of certain capital gain dividends as ordinary income.
Generally, we will classify a portion of our designated capital gain dividends as a 15% rate gain distribution and the remaining portion as an unrecaptured Section 1250 gain distribution. A 15% rate gain distribution would be taxable to taxable domestic shareholders that are individuals, estates or trusts at a maximum rate of 15%. An unrecaptured Section 1250 gain distribution would be taxable to taxable domestic shareholders that are individuals, estates or trusts at a maximum rate of 25%.
If, for any taxable year, we elect to designate as capital gain dividends any portion of the dividends paid or made available for the year to holders of all classes of shares of beneficial interest, then the portion of the capital gains dividends that will be allocable to the holders of common shares will be the total capital gain dividends multiplied by a fraction. The numerator of the fraction will be the total dividends paid or made available to the holders of the common shares for the year. The denominator of the fraction will be the total dividends paid or made available to holders of all classes of shares of beneficial interest.
We may elect to retain (rather than distribute as is generally required) net capital gain for a taxable year and pay the income tax on that gain. If we make this election, shareholders must include in income, as long-term capital gain, their proportionate share of the undistributed net capital gain. Shareholders will be treated as having paid their proportionate share of the tax paid by us on these gains. Accordingly, they will receive a tax credit or refund for the amount. Shareholders will increase the basis in their common shares by the difference between the amount of capital gain included in their income and the amount of the tax they are treated as having paid. Our earnings and profits will be adjusted appropriately.
In general, a shareholder will recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes on the sale or other disposition of common shares in an amount equal to the difference between:
(a) the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property received in the sale or other disposition; and
(b) the shareholders adjusted tax basis in the common shares.
The gain or loss will be capital gain or loss if the common shares were held as a capital asset. Generally, the capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the common shares were held for more than one year.
In general, a loss recognized by a shareholder upon the sale of common shares that were held for six months or less, determined after applying certain holding period rules, will be treated as long-term capital loss to the extent that the shareholder received distributions that were treated as long-term capital gains. For shareholders who are individuals, trusts and estates, the long-term capital loss will be apportioned among the applicable long-term capital gain rates to the extent that distributions received by the shareholder were previously so treated.

Taxation of Domestic Tax-Exempt Shareholders
Most tax-exempt organizations are not subject to federal income tax except to the extent of their unrelated business taxable income, which is often referred to as UBTI. Unless a tax-exempt shareholder holds its common shares as debt financed property or uses the common shares in an unrelated trade or business, distributions to the shareholder should not constitute UBTI. Similarly, if a tax-exempt shareholder sells common shares, the income from the sale should not constitute UBTI unless the shareholder held the shares as debt financed property or used the shares in a trade or business.
However, for tax-exempt shareholders that are social clubs, voluntary employee benefit associations, supplemental unemployment benefit trusts, and qualified group legal services plans, income from owning or selling common shares will constitute UBTI unless the organization is able to properly deduct amounts set aside or placed in reserve so as to offset the income generated by its investment in common shares. These shareholders should consult their own tax advisors concerning these set aside and reserve requirements which are set forth in the Internal Revenue Code.
In addition, certain pension trusts that own more than 10% of a pension-held REIT must report a portion of the distributions that they receive from the REIT as UBTI. We have not been and do not expect to be treated as a pension-held REIT for purposes of this rule.
Taxation of Foreign Shareholders
The following is a discussion of certain anticipated United States federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of common shares applicable to a foreign shareholder. For purposes of this discussion, a foreign shareholder is any person other than:
(a) a citizen or resident of the United States;
(b) a corporation or partnership created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof; or
(c) an estate or trust whose income is includable in gross income for United States federal income tax purposes regardless of its source.
Distributions by Us . Distributions by us to a foreign shareholder that are neither attributable to gain from sales or exchanges by us of United States real property interests nor designated by us as capital gains dividends will be treated as dividends of ordinary income to the extent that they are made out of our earnings and profits. These distributions ordinarily will be subject to withholding of United States federal income tax on a gross basis at a 30% rate, or a lower treaty rate, unless the dividends are treated as effectively connected with the conduct by the foreign shareholder of a United States trade or business. Please note that under certain treaties lower withholding rates generally applicable to dividends do not apply to dividends from REITs. Dividends that are effectively connected with a United States trade or business will be subject to tax on a net basis at graduated rates, and are generally not subject to withholding. Certification and disclosure requirements must be satisfied before a dividend is exempt from withholding under this exemption. A foreign shareholder that is a corporation also may be subject to an additional branch profits tax at a 30% rate or a lower treaty rate.
23
We expect to withhold United States income tax at the rate of 30% on any distributions made to a foreign shareholder unless:
(a) a lower treaty rate applies and any required form or certification evidencing eligibility for that reduced rate is filed with us; or
(b) the foreign shareholder files an IRS Form W-8ECI with us claiming that the distribution is effectively connected income.
A distribution in excess of our current or accumulated earnings and profits will not be taxable to a foreign shareholder to the extent that the distribution does not exceed the adjusted basis of the shareholders common shares. Instead, the distribution will reduce the adjusted basis of the common shares. To the extent that the distribution exceeds the adjusted basis of the common shares, it will give rise to gain from the sale or exchange of the shareholders common shares. The tax treatment of this gain is described below.
We intend to withhold at a rate of 30%, or a lower applicable treaty rate, on the entire amount of any distribution not designated as a capital gain distribution. In such event, a foreign shareholder may seek a refund of the withheld amount from the IRS if it subsequently determined that the distribution was, in fact, in excess of our earnings and profits, and the amount withheld exceeded the foreign shareholders United States tax liability with respect to the distribution.
Distributions to a foreign shareholder that we designate at the time of the distributions as capital gain dividends, other than those arising from the disposition of a United States real property interest, generally will not be subject to United States federal income taxation unless:
(a) the investment in the common shares is effectively connected with the foreign shareholders United States trade or business, in which case the foreign shareholder will be subject to the same treatment as domestic shareholders, except that a shareholder that is a foreign corporation may also be subject to the branch profits tax, as discussed above; or
(b) the foreign shareholder is a nonresident alien individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year and has a tax home in the United States, in which case the nonresident alien individual will be subject to a 30% tax on the individuals capital gains.
Under the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act, which is known as FIRPTA, distributions to a foreign shareholder that are attributable to gain from sales or exchanges of United States real property interests will cause the foreign shareholder to be treated as recognizing the gain as income effectively connected with a United States trade or business. This rule applies whether or not a distribution is designated as a capital gain dividend. Accordingly, foreign shareholders generally would be taxed on these distributions at the same rates applicable to U.S. shareholders, subject to a special alternative minimum tax in the case of nonresident alien individuals. In addition, a foreign corporate shareholder might be subject to the branch profits tax discussed above. We are required to withhold 35% of these distributions. The withheld amount can be credited against the foreign shareholders United States federal income tax liability.
Although the law is not entirely clear on the matter, it appears that amounts we designate as undistributed capital gains in respect of the common shares held by U.S. shareholders would be treated with respect to foreign shareholders in the same manner as actual distributions of capital gain dividends. Under that approach, foreign shareholders would be able to offset as a credit against the United States
24
federal income tax liability their proportionate share of the tax paid by us on these undistributed capital gains. In addition, foreign shareholders would be able to receive from the IRS a refund to the extent their proportionate share of the tax paid by us were to exceed their actual United States federal income tax liability.
Foreign Shareholders' Sales of Common Shares . Gain recognized by a foreign shareholder upon the sale or exchange of common shares generally will not be subject to United States taxation unless the shares constitute a United States real property interest within the meaning of FIRPTA. The common shares will not constitute a United States real property interest so long as we are a domestically controlled REIT. A domestically controlled REIT is a REIT in which at all times during a specified testing period less than 50% in value of its stock is held directly or indirectly by foreign shareholders. We believe that we are a domestically controlled REIT. Therefore, we believe that the sale of common shares will not be subject to taxation under FIRPTA. However, because common shares and preferred shares are publicly traded, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to be a domestically controlled REIT. In any event, gain from the sale or exchange of common shares not otherwise subject to FIRPTA will be subject to U.S. tax, if either:
(a) the investment in the common shares is effectively connected with the foreign shareholders United States trade or business, in which case the foreign shareholder will be subject to the same treatment as domestic shareholders with respect to the gain; or
(b) the foreign shareholder is a nonresident alien individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year and has a tax home in the United States, in which case the nonresident alien individual will be subject to a 30% tax on the individuals capital gains.
Even if we do not qualify as or cease to be a domestically controlled REIT, gain arising from the sale or exchange by a foreign shareholder of common shares still would not be subject to United States taxation under FIRPTA as a sale of a United States real property interest if:
(a) the class or series of shares being sold is regularly traded, as defined by applicable IRS regulations, on an established securities market such as the New York Stock Exchange; and
(b) the selling foreign shareholder owned 5% or less of the value of the outstanding class or series of shares being sold throughout the five-year period ending on the date of the sale or exchange.
If gain on the sale or exchange of common shares were subject to taxation under FIRPTA, the foreign shareholder would be subject to regular United States income tax with respect to the gain in the same manner as a taxable U.S. shareholder, subject to any applicable alternative minimum tax, a special alternative minimum tax in the case of nonresident alien individuals and the possible application of the branch profits tax in the case of foreign corporations. The purchaser of the common shares would be required to withhold and remit to the IRS 10% of the purchase price.
Information Reporting Requirement and Backup Withholding
We will report to our domestic shareholders and the Internal Revenue Service the amount of distributions paid during each calendar year and the amount of tax withheld, if any. Under certain circumstances, domestic shareholders may be subject to backup withholding. Backup withholding will apply only if such domestic shareholder fails to furnish certain information to us or the Internal Revenue Service. Backup withholding will not apply with respect to payments made to certain exempt recipients, such as corporations and tax-exempt organizations. Domestic shareholders should consult their own tax advisors regarding their qualification for exemption from backup withholding and the procedure for obtaining such an exemption. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the amount of any backup withholding with respect to a payment to a domestic shareholder will be allowed as a credit against such person's United States federal income tax liability and may entitle such person to a refund, provided that the required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.

Resident leases are generally for twelve months in length and typically require security deposits. The garden-style properties are generally defined as properties with two and/or three story buildings while the mid-rise/high-rise are defined as properties with greater than three story buildings. These two property types typically provide residents with amenities, which may include a clubhouse, swimming pool, laundry facilities and cable television access. Certain of these properties offer additional amenities such as saunas, whirlpools, spas, sports courts and exercise rooms or other amenities. The ranch-style properties are defined as single story properties, which do not provide additional amenities for residents other than laundry facilities and cable television access. The military housing properties are defined as those properties located on military bases.
It is managements role to monitor compliance with property policies and to provide preventive maintenance of the properties including common areas, facilities and amenities. The Company has a dedicated training and education department that creates and coordinates training and strategic implementation for the Companys property management personnel. The Company believes that, due in part to its emphasis on training and employee quality, the properties historically have had high occupancy rates.
The distribution of the properties throughout the United States reflects the Companys belief that geographic diversification helps insulate the portfolio from regional and economic influences. At the same time, the Company has sought to create clusters of properties within each of its primary markets in order to achieve economies of scale in management and operation. The Company may nevertheless acquire additional multifamily properties located anywhere in the continental United States.
The following tables set forth certain information by type and state relating to the Companys properties (includes development and condominium conversion properties) at December 31, 2004:

In August 2004, the Company tried a class action lawsuit in Palm Beach County, Florida regarding certain charges made to residents who terminated their leases early or failed to provide sufficient notice of intent to vacate. In December 2004, the Court issued a Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law holding those fees legally uncollectible under Florida law. In recognition of the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, which awarded damages and interest to the class in the amount of approximately $1.6 million, the Company established a reserve of approximately $1.6 million and correspondingly recorded this as a general and administrative expense. Due to pending appeals, the award is neither final nor enforceable. Accordingly, it is not possible to determine or predict the ultimate outcome of the case. While no assurances can be given, the Company does not believe that this lawsuit, if the ultimate outcome is unfavorable, will have a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Company does not believe there is any other litigation pending or threatened against the Company which, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably may be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

(1) The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) defines funds from operations (FFO) (April 2002 White Paper) as net income (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP)), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. The April 2002 White Paper states that gain or loss on sales of property is excluded from FFO for previously depreciated operating properties only. Once the Company commences the conversion of units to condominiums, it simultaneously discontinues depreciation of such property. See Item 7 for a reconciliation of net income to FFO.
(2) The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real estate company, because it is a recognized measure of performance by the real estate industry and by excluding gains or losses related
32
to dispositions of depreciable property and excluding real estate depreciation (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help compare the operating performance of a companys real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. FFO in and of itself does not represent net income or net cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, FFO should not be exclusively considered as an alternative to net income or to net cash flows from operating activities as determined by GAAP or as a measure of liquidity. The Companys calculation of FFO may differ from other real estate companies due to, among other items, variations in cost capitalization policies for capital expenditures and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other real estate companies.
Item 7 . Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of the Company should be read in connection with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto. Due to the Companys ability to control the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries other than entities owning interests in the Unconsolidated Properties and certain other entities in which the Company has investments, the Operating Partnership and each such subsidiary entity has been consolidated with the Company for financial reporting purposes. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined are as defined elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Forward-looking statements in this Item 7 as well as Item 1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K are intended to be made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words believes, estimates, expects and anticipates and other similar expressions that are predictions of or indicate future events and trends and which do not relate solely to historical matters identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results, performance, or achievements of the Company to differ materially from anticipated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, the following:
The total number of development units, cost of development and completion dates as well as anticipated capital expenditures for replacements and building improvements all reflect the Companys best estimates and are subject to uncertainties arising from changing economic conditions (such as the cost of labor and construction materials), competition and local government regulation;
Sources of capital to the Company or labor and materials required for maintenance, repair, capital expenditure or development are more expensive than anticipated;
Occupancy levels and market rents may be adversely affected by national and local economic and market conditions including, without limitation, new construction of multifamily housing, slow employment growth, availability of low interest mortgages for single-family home buyers and the potential for geopolitical instability, all of which are beyond the Companys control; and
Additional factors as discussed in Part I of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, particularly those under Risk Factors.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements, which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Forward-looking statements and related uncertainties are also included in Note 5 and 11 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.

The Companys primary financial measure for evaluating each of its apartment communities is net operating income (NOI). The Company believes that NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real estate company because it is a direct measure of the actual operating results of the Companys apartment communities.
Properties that the Company owned for all of both 2004 and 2003 (the 2004 Same Store Properties), which represented 162,201 units, impacted the Companys results of operations. Properties that the Company owned for all of both 2003 and 2002 (the 2003 Same Store Properties), which represented 171,841 units, also impacted the Companys results of operations. Both the 2004 Same Store Properties and 2003 Same Store Properties are discussed in the following paragraphs.
The Companys acquisition, disposition, completed development and consolidation of previously unconsolidated property and variable interest entity activities also impacted overall results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. The impacts of these activities are also discussed in greater detail in the following paragraphs.
Comparison of the year ended December 31, 2004 to the year ended December 31, 2003
For the year ended December 31, 2004, income from continuing operations decreased by approximately $22.6 million when compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company established a reserve and recorded a corresponding expense of $15.2 million in estimated uninsured property damage at certain of its properties primarily located in Florida caused by Hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne. Of this amount, approximately $9.4 million had been spent for hurricane related repairs through December 31, 2004.
34
Revenues from the 2004 Same Store Properties increased $14.1 million primarily as a result of lower concessions provided residents and a slight increase in occupancy rates. Expenses from the 2004 Same Store Properties increased $22.5 million primarily due to higher payroll, utility costs and real estate taxes. The following tables provide comparative revenue, expense, NOI and weighted average occupancy for the 2004 Same Store Properties:

These 2005 assumptions are based on current expectations and are forward-looking.
Rental income from properties other than 2004 Same Store Properties increased by approximately $172.6 million primarily as a result of revenue from newly acquired properties not yet included as 2004 Same Store Properties and the consolidation of all previously unconsolidated development projects.
Fee and asset management revenues, net of fee and asset management expenses, decreased by $3.9 million primarily as a result of lower income earned from Ft. Lewis and managing fewer properties for third parties and unconsolidated entities. As of December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company managed 17,988 units and 18,475 units, respectively, for third parties and unconsolidated entities.
Property management expenses include off-site expenses associated with the self-management of the Companys properties as well as management fees paid to any third party management companies. These expenses increased by approximately $7.8 million or 11.5%. This increase is primarily attributable to higher payroll costs, including bonuses and long-term compensation costs as well as severance costs for certain employees. In addition, the property management company experienced slightly higher costs for travel, temporary help, internal conferences and legal and professional fees.
Depreciation expense, which includes depreciation on non-real estate assets, increased $69.2 million primarily as a result of the consolidation of previously unconsolidated projects and properties acquired after December 31, 2003, many of which had significantly higher per unit acquisition costs than properties previously acquired, and also due to additional depreciation on capital expenditures for all properties owned.
General and administrative expenses, which include corporate operating expenses, increased approximately $12.4 million or 32.0% between the periods under comparison. This increase was primarily due to the costs of consulting services rendered to increase operating efficiencies and increased litigation and internal control costs. This increase was partially offset by $1.4 million of immediate expense recognition related to options granted in the first quarter of 2003 to the Companys former chief executive officer. Consulting services were contracted to enhance resident satisfaction/retention, unit pricing and expense procurement/reduction. The Company believes that these additional expenditures may be more than offset by increased rental revenues and/or reduced operating expenses in future years. The Company also anticipates that general and administrative expenses will approximate $43.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. The above assumptions are based on current expectations and are forward-looking.
The Company recorded impairment charges on its technology investments of approximately $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. See Note 19 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
Interest and other income decreased approximately $5.5 million, primarily as a result of lower balances available for investments including deposits in tax deferred exchange accounts and collateral agreements related to development projects.
Interest expense, including amortization of deferred financing costs, increased approximately $20.8 million. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in mortgage and unsecured note balances and lower capitalized interest. During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company capitalized interest costs of approximately $14.0 million as compared to $20.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. This capitalization of interest primarily related to equity investments in Partially Owned Properties (consolidated)
36
engaged in development activities. The effective interest cost on all indebtedness for the year ended December 31, 2004 was 5.87% as compared to 6.36% for the year ended December 31, 2003.
Loss from investments in unconsolidated entities decreased approximately $2.8 million between the periods under comparison. This decrease is primarily the result of consolidation of properties that were previously unconsolidated, partially offset by an increase in realized losses on the settlement of derivative instruments.
Net gain on sales of discontinued operations increased approximately $13.2 million between the periods under comparison. This increase is primarily the result of an increase in the number of condominium units sold.
Discontinued operations, net, decreased approximately $41.6 million between the periods under comparison. See Note 13 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
Comparison of the year ended December 31, 2003 to the year ended December 31, 2002
For the year ended December 31, 2003, income from continuing operations decreased by approximately $30.2 million when compared to the year ended December 31, 2002. This decrease was primarily attributable to increased operating expenses incurred including property management costs and depreciation.
Revenues from the 2003 Same Store Properties decreased by $38.2 million primarily as a result of lower overall physical occupancy, increased concessions and lower rental rates charged to both new and renewal residents. Property operating expenses from the 2003 Same Store Properties increased by $36.3 million primarily due to higher payroll, maintenance, utility, real estate taxes, insurance, leasing and advertising and building costs.

Rental income from properties other than 2003 Same Store Properties increased by approximately $47.5 million primarily as a result of revenue from newly acquired properties not yet included as 2003 Same Store Properties and additional Partially Owned Properties consolidated in the fourth quarter of 2002 and during the year ended December 31, 2003.
Fee and asset management revenues, net of fee and asset management expenses, increased by $4.9 million primarily as a result of additional income allocated from Ft. Lewis. As of December 31, 2003 and
37
2002, the Company managed 18,475 units and 18,965 units, respectively, for third parties and unconsolidated entities.
Property management expenses include off-site expenses associated with the self-management of the Companys properties as well as management fees paid to any third party management companies. These expenses decreased by approximately $4.4 million or 6.0%. This decrease is primarily attributable to a reversal of a profit sharing accrual in the first quarter of 2003 related to the 2002 calendar year as the Company didnt achieve its stated goals and management elected not to make a discretionary contribution to the plan. In addition, the Company recorded lower expense in connection with granting less restricted shares and reducing the expense associated with the Companys matched funding of its 401(k) plan during 2003 and not incurring an expense for 2003 discretionary profit sharing contributions.
Depreciation expense, which includes depreciation on non-real estate assets, increased $25.4 million primarily as a result of properties acquired after December 31, 2002, many of which had significantly higher per unit acquisition costs than properties previously acquired, and additional depreciation on capital expenditures for all properties owned.
General and administrative expenses, which include corporate operating expenses, decreased approximately $7.7 million between the periods under comparison. This decrease was primarily due to lower expenses recorded in connection with granting less restricted shares to employees during 2003, partially offset by approximately a $2.6 million increase related to the Companys decision to begin to expense its stock based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and its amendment (SFAS No. 148). In addition, lower state income and franchise taxes also contributed to this decrease.
The Company recorded impairment charges on its technology investments and its corporate housing business of approximately $1.2 million and $18.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. See Note 19 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
Interest and other income increased by approximately $1.4 million, primarily as a result of higher cash balances available for short-term investments throughout 2003.
Interest expense, including amortization of deferred financing costs, decreased approximately $4.6 million primarily due to lower variable interest rates and lower overall levels of debt. During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company capitalized interest costs of approximately $20.6 million as compared to $27.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. This capitalization of interest primarily related to equity investments in unconsolidated entities engaged in development activities. The effective interest cost on all indebtedness for the year ended December 31, 2003 was 6.36% as compared to 6.54% for the year ended December 31, 2002.
Loss from investments in unconsolidated entities increased approximately $6.4 million between the periods under comparison. This increase is primarily the result of increased operating losses from equity investments partially offset by unrealized gains on derivative instruments.
Net gain on sales of discontinued operations increased approximately $206.4 million between the periods under comparison. This increase is primarily the result of a greater number of properties sold during the year ended December 31, 2003, as well as the fact that several properties had lower net carrying values at sale.
Discontinued operations, net, decreased approximately $53.6 million between the periods under comparison. See Note 13 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Capitalization of Fixed Assets and Improvements to Real Estate
Our policy with respect to capital expenditures is generally to capitalize expenditures that improve the value of the property or extend the useful life of the component asset of the property. We track improvements to real estate in two major categories and several subcategories:
Replacements (inside the unit) . These include:
carpets and hardwood floors;
appliances;
mechanical equipment such as individual furnace/air units, hot water heaters, etc;
furniture and fixtures such as kitchen/bath cabinets, light fixtures, ceiling fans, sinks, tubs, toilets, mirrors, countertops, etc;
flooring such as vinyl, linoleum or tile; and
blinds/shades.
All replacements are depreciated over a five-year estimated useful life. We expense as incurred all maintenance and turnover costs such as cleaning, interior painting of individual units and the repair of any replacement item noted above.
Building improvements ( outside the unit ). These include:
roof replacement and major repairs;
paving or major resurfacing of parking lots, curbs and sidewalks;
amenities and common areas such as pools, exterior sports and playground equipment, lobbies, clubhouses, laundry rooms, alarm and security systems and offices;
major building mechanical equipment systems;
interior and exterior structural repair and exterior painting and siding;
major landscaping and grounds improvement; and
vehicles and office and maintenance equipment.
All building improvements are depreciated over a five to ten-year estimated useful life. We expense as incurred all recurring expenditures that do not improve the value of the asset or extend its useful life.
For the year ended December 31, 2004, our actual improvements to real estate totaled approximately $212.2 million. This includes the following detail (amounts in thousands except for unit and per unit amounts):

(1) Total units exclude 22,578 unconsolidated units.
(2) Wholly Owned Properties acquired prior to January 1, 2001.
(3) Wholly Owned Properties acquired during 2001, 2002 and 2003. Per unit amounts are based on a weighted average of 10,533 units.
(4) Includes properties either Partially Owned or sold during the period, commercial space, condominium conversions and $6.5 million included in building improvements spent on seven specific assets related to major renovations and repositioning of these assets.
The Company expects to fund approximately $160.0 million for capital expenditures for replacements and building improvements for all consolidated properties, exclusive of condominium conversion properties, in 2005.
During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Companys total non-real estate capital additions, such as computer software, computer equipment, and furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements to the Companys property management offices and its corporate offices, was approximately $6.6 million. The
43
Company expects to fund approximately $12.8 million in total additions to non-real estate property in 2005.
Improvements to real estate and additions to non-real estate property were funded from net cash provided by operating activities.
Derivative Instruments
In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effect of interest rate changes. The Company limits these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures including the use of derivatives to hedge interest rate risk on debt instruments.
The Company has a policy of only entering into contracts with major financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and other factors. When viewed in conjunction with the underlying and offsetting exposure that the derivatives are designed to hedge, the Company has not sustained a material loss from those instruments nor does it anticipate any material adverse effect on its net income or financial position in the future from the use of derivatives.
See Note 11 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion of derivative instruments at December 31, 2004.
Other
Minority Interests as of December 31, 2004 decreased by $65.3 million when compared to December 31, 2003. The primary factors that impacted this account in the Companys consolidated statements of operations and balance sheets during the year ended December 31, 2004 were:
Distributions declared to Minority Interests, which amounted to $35.9 million (excluding Junior Preference Unit and Preference Interest distributions);
The allocation of income from operations to holders of OP Units in the amount of $31.2 million;
The issuance of 306,694 OP Units to various limited partners at an average price of $29.63 per unit;
The redemption of 800,000 Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preference Interests with a liquidation value of $40.0 million and a premium on redemption of $1.1 million (see Note 3 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion);
The issuance of Common Shares; and
The conversion of 1.7 million OP Units into Common Shares valued at $36.9 million at an average price of $21.16 per unit.
Total distributions paid in January 2005 amounted to $144.1 million (excluding distributions on Partially Owned Properties), which included certain distributions declared during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2004.
The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements, including capital expenditures related to maintaining its existing properties and certain scheduled unsecured note and mortgage note repayments, generally through its working capital, net cash provided by operating activities and borrowings under its line of credit. The Company considers its cash provided by operating activities to be adequate to meet operating requirements and payments of distributions. The Company also expects to meet its long-term liquidity requirements, such as scheduled unsecured note and mortgage debt maturities, property acquisitions, financing of construction and development activities and capital improvements through the issuance of unsecured notes and equity securities, including additional OP Units, and proceeds received from the disposition of certain properties. In addition, the Company has significant unencumbered properties available to secure additional mortgage borrowings in the event that the public capital markets are unavailable or the cost of alternative sources of capital is too high. The fair value of and cash flow from these unencumbered properties are in excess of the requirements the Company must maintain in order to comply with covenants
44
under its unsecured notes and line of credit. Of the $14.9 billion in investment in real estate on the Companys balance sheet at December 31, 2004, $9.5 billion or 63.8%, was unencumbered.
The Operating Partnership has a revolving credit facility with potential borrowings of up to $700.0 million. This facility matures in May 2005 and may, among other potential uses, be used to fund property acquisitions, costs for certain properties under development and short term liquidity requirements. As of March 1, 2005, $135.0 million was outstanding under this facility (and $51.0 million was restricted and dedicated to support letters of credit).
The Operating Partnership is currently negotiating a new credit facility to replace or expand its existing facility and fully expects to obtain this at current or improved terms in March or April 2005.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
The Company has co-invested in various properties that are unconsolidated and accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Management does not believe these investments have a materially different impact upon the Companys liquidity, capital resources, credit or market risk than its property management and ownership activities. The nature and business purpose of these ventures are as follows:
Institutional Ventures During 2000 and 2001, the Company entered into ventures with an unaffiliated partner. At the respective closing dates, the Company sold and/or contributed 45 properties containing 10,846 units to these ventures and retained a 25% ownership interest in the ventures. The Companys joint venture partner contributed cash equal to 75% of the agreed-upon equity value of the properties comprising the ventures, which was then distributed to the Company. The Companys strategy with respect to these ventures was to reduce its concentration of properties in a variety of markets.
Lexford/Other As of December 31, 2004, the Company has ownership interests in twelve properties containing 1,571 units acquired in a prior merger. The current weighted average ownership percentage is 11.0%. The Companys strategy with respect to these interests is either to acquire a majority ownership or sell the Companys interest.
As of December 31, 2004, the Company has five projects totaling 1,306 units in various stages of development with estimated completion dates ranging through September 30, 2006. The three development agreements currently in place have the following key terms:
The first development partner has the right, at any time following completion of a project subject to the agreement, to stipulate a value for such project and offer to sell its interest in the project to the Company based on such value. If the Company chooses not to purchase the interest, the Company must agree to a sale of the project to an unrelated third party at such value. The Companys partner must exercise this right as to all projects subject to the agreement within five years after the receipt of the final certificate of occupancy on the last developed property. In connection with this development partner, the Company has an obligation to provide up to $40.0 million in credit enhancements to guarantee a portion of the third party construction financing. As of February 2, 2005, the Company had set-aside $5.0 million towards this credit enhancement. The Company would be required to perform under this agreement only if there was a material default under a third party construction mortgage agreement. This agreement expires no later than December 31, 2018. Notwithstanding the termination of the agreement, the Company shall have recourse against its development partner for any losses incurred.
The second development partner has the right, at any time following completion of a project subject to the agreement, to require the Company to purchase the partners interest in that project at a mutually agreeable price. If the Company and the partner are unable to agree on a price, both parties will obtain appraisals. If the appraised values vary by more than 10%, both the Company and its
45
partner will agree on a third appraiser to determine which original appraisal is closest to its determination of value. The Company may elect at that time not to purchase the property and instead, authorize its partner to sell the project at or above the agreed-upon value to an unrelated third party. Five years following the receipt of the final certificate of occupancy on the last developed property, the Company must purchase, at the agreed-upon price, any projects remaining unsold.
The third development partner has the exclusive right for six months following stabilization, as defined, to market a subject project for sale. Thereafter, either the Company or its development partner may market a subject project for sale. If the Companys development partner proposes the sale, the Company may elect to purchase the project at the price proposed by its partner or defer the sale until two independent appraisers appraise the project. If the two appraised values vary by more than 5%, a third appraiser will be chosen to determine the fair market value of the property. Once a value has been determined, the Company may elect to purchase the property or authorize its development partner to sell the project at the agreed-upon value.
See Note 6 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion regarding the Companys investments in unconsolidated entities.
In connection with one of its mergers, the Company provided a guaranty of a credit enhancement agreement with respect to certain tax-exempt bonds issued to finance certain public improvements at a multifamily development project. The Company has the obligation to provide this guaranty for a period of eight years from the consummation of the merger or through May 2005. The Company would be required to perform under this guaranty only if there was a draw on the letter of credit issued by the credit enhancement party. The counterparty has also indemnified the Company for any losses suffered. As of February 2, 2005, this guaranty was still in effect at a commitment amount of $10.4 million and no current outstanding liability.
The following table summarizes the Companys contractual obligations for the next five years and thereafter as of December 31, 2004:

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Companys significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. These policies were followed in preparing the consolidated financial statements at and
46
for the year ended December 31, 2004.
The Company has identified six significant accounting policies as critical accounting policies. These critical accounting policies are those that have the most impact on the reporting of our financial condition and those requiring significant judgments and estimates. With respect to these critical accounting policies, management believes that the application of judgments and assessments is consistently applied and produces financial information that fairly presents the results of operations for all periods presented. The six critical accounting policies are:
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, Including Goodwill
The Company periodically evaluates its long-lived assets, including its investments in real estate and goodwill, for indicators of permanent impairment. The judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on factors such as operational performance, market conditions, expected holding period of each asset and legal and environmental concerns. Future events could occur which would cause the Company to conclude that impairment indicators exist and an impairment loss is warranted.
Depreciation of Investment in Real Estate
The Company depreciates the building component of its investment in real estate over a 30-year estimated useful life, building improvements over a 5-year to 10-year estimated useful life and both the furniture, fixtures and equipment and replacements components over a 5-year estimated useful life, all of which are judgmental determinations.
Cost Capitalization
See the Capitalization of Fixed Assets and Improvements to Real Estate section for discussion of the policy with respect to capitalization vs. expensing of fixed asset/repair and maintenance costs. In addition, the Company capitalizes the payroll and associated costs of employees directly responsible for and who spend all of their time on the supervision of major capital and/or renovation projects. These costs are reflected on the balance sheet as an increase to depreciable property.
The Company follows the guidance in SFAS No. 67, Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects , for all development projects and uses its professional judgment in determining whether such costs meet the criteria for capitalization or must be expensed as incurred. The Company capitalizes, through the date the certificates of occupancy ("CO") are issued (CO's are deemed final within 90 days of issuance), interest, real estate taxes and insurance and payroll and associated costs for those individuals directly responsible for and who spend all of their time on development activities. These costs are reflected on the balance sheet as construction in progress for each specific property. The Company expenses as incurred all payroll costs of on-site employees working directly at our properties, except as noted above on our development properties prior to certificate of occupancy issuance and on specific major rennovation at selected properties when additional incremental employees are hired.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Including Derivative Instruments
The valuation of financial instruments under SFAS No. 107 and SFAS No. 133 and its amendments (SFAS Nos. 137/138/149) requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the fair value of the instruments. The Company, where possible, bases the fair values of its financial instruments, including its derivative instruments, on listed market prices and third party quotes. Where these are not available, the Company bases its estimates on other factors relevant to the financial instruments.
47
Revenue Recognition
Rental income attributable to leases is recorded when due from residents and is recognized monthly as it is earned, which is not materially different than on a straight-line basis. Leases entered into between a resident and a property for the rental of an apartment unit are generally year-to-year, renewable upon consent of both parties on an annual or monthly basis. Fee and asset management revenue and interest income are recorded on an accrual basis.
Stock-Based Compensation
Prior to 2003, the Company had chosen to account for its stock-based compensation in accordance with APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees , which resulted in no compensation expense for options issued with an exercise price equal to or exceeding the market value of the Companys Common Shares on the date of grant (intrinsic method). The Company elected to account for its stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and its amendment (SFAS No. 148), Accounting for Stock Based Compensation , effective in the first quarter of 2003, which resulted in compensation expense being recorded based on the fair value of the stock compensation granted.
SFAS No. 148 provides three transition methods for entities that adopt the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123. The Company elected the Prospective Method which requires expensing of employee awards granted or modified after January 1, 2003. Compensation expense under all of the Companys plans is generally recognized over periods ranging from three months to five years. See Note 2 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion and comparative information regarding application of the fair value method to all outstanding employee awards.
Funds From Operations
For the year ended December 31, 2004, Funds From Operations (FFO) available to Common Shares and OP Units increased $11.4 million, or 1.8%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. For the year ended December 31, 2003, FFO available to Common Shares and OP Units decreased $78.9 million, or 11.0%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2002.

(1) The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) defines funds from operations (FFO) (April 2002 White Paper) as net income (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP)), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. The April 2002 White Paper states that gain or loss on sales of property is excluded from FFO for previously depreciated operating properties only. Once the Company commences the conversion of units to condominiums, it simultaneously discontinues depreciation of such property.
(2) The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real estate company, because it is a recognized measure of performance by the real estate industry and by excluding gains or losses related to dispositions of depreciable property and excluding real estate depreciation (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help compare the operating performance of a companys real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. FFO in and of itself does not represent net income or net cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, FFO should not be exclusively considered as an alternative to net income or to net cash flows from operating activities as determined by GAAP or as a measure of liquidity. The Companys calculation of FFO may differ from other real estate companies due to, among other items, variations in cost capitalization policies for capital expenditures and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other real estate companies.
49
Item 7A . Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
Market risks relating to the Companys operations result primarily from changes in short-term LIBOR interest rates. The Company does not have any direct foreign exchange or other significant market risk.
The Companys exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the unsecured line of credit. The Company typically incurs fixed rate debt obligations to finance acquisitions and capital expenditures, while it typically incurs floating rate debt obligations to finance working capital needs and as a temporary measure in advance of securing long-term fixed rate financing. The Company continuously evaluates its level of floating rate debt with respect to total debt and other factors, including its assessment of the current and future economic environment.
The Company also utilizes certain derivative financial instruments to limit market risk. Interest rate protection agreements are used to convert floating rate debt to a fixed rate basis or vice versa. Derivatives are used for hedging purposes rather than speculation. The Company does not enter into financial instruments for trading purposes. See also Note 11 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion of derivative instruments.
The fair values of the Companys financial instruments (including such items in the financial statement captions as cash and cash equivalents, other assets, line of credit, accounts payable and accrued expenses, rents received in advance and other liabilities) approximate their carrying or contract values based on their nature, terms and interest rates that approximate current market rates. The fair value of the Companys mortgage notes payable and unsecured notes approximates their carrying value at December 31, 2004.
The Company had total outstanding floating rate debt of approximately $1,389.0 million, or 21.5% of total debt at December 31, 2004, net of the effects of any derivative instruments. If market rates of interest on all of the floating rate debt permanently increased by 25 basis points (a 10% increase from the Companys existing weighted average interest rates), the increase in interest expense on the floating rate debt would decrease future earnings and cash flows by approximately $3.5 million. If market rates of interest on all of the floating rate debt permanently decreased by 25 basis points (a 10% decrease from the Companys existing weighted average interest rates), the decrease in interest expense on the floating rate debt would increase future earnings and cash flows by approximately $3.5 million.
At December 31, 2004, the Company had total outstanding fixed rate debt of approximately $5.1 billion, net of the effects of any derivative instruments. If market rates of interest permanently increased by 65 basis points (a 10% increase from the Companys existing weighted average interest rates), the estimated fair value of the Companys fixed rate debt would be approximately $4.6 billion. If market rates of interest permanently decreased by 65 basis points (a 10% decrease from the Companys existing weighted average interest rates), the estimated fair value of the Companys fixed rate debt would be approximately $5.6 billion.
At December 31, 2004, the Companys derivative instruments had a net liability fair value of approximately $7.9 million. If market rates of interest permanently increased by 40 basis points (a 10% increase from the Companys existing weighted average interest rates), the net liability fair value of the Companys derivative instruments would be approximately $13.9 million. If market rates of interest permanently decreased by 40 basis points (a 10% decrease from the Companys existing weighted average interest rates), the net liability fair value of the Companys derivative instruments would be approximately $2.2 million.
These amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on the Companys financial instruments. The foregoing assumptions apply to the entire amount of the Companys debt and derivative instruments and do not differentiate among maturities. These analyses do not consider the effects of the changes in overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment. Further, in the event of changes of such magnitude, management would likely take actions to further mitigate its exposure to
50
the changes. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, this analysis assumes no changes in the Companys financial structure or results.
The Company cannot predict the effect of adverse changes in interest rates on its debt and derivative instruments and, therefore, its exposure to market risk, nor can there be any assurance that long term debt will be available at advantageous pricing. Consequently, future results may differ materially from the estimated adverse changes discussed above.

Item 9A . Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:
Effective as of December 31, 2004, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, there were no changes to the internal controls over financial reporting of the Company identified in connection with the Companys evaluation or otherwise that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal controls over financial reporting.
(b) Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting:
Equity Residentials management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Based on the Companys evaluation under the framework in Internal Control Integrated Framework, management concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2004. Managements assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004 has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included herein at Item 8, page F-3.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders
Equity Residential
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Equity Residential (the Company) as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the accompanying index to the financial statements and schedule. These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Equity Residential at December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for variable interest entities in 2004 and changed its method of accounting for stock-based compensation in 2003.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of Equity Residentials internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on the criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 28, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM ON
INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders
Equity Residential
We have audited managements assessment, included in the accompanying Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting at Item 9A, that Equity Residential (the Company) maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO Criteria). The Companys management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on managements assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating managements assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, managements assessment that Equity Residential maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the COSO Criteria. Also, in our opinion, Equity Residential maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on the COSO Criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Equity Residential as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004 and our report dated February 28, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

EQUITY RESIDENTIAL
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Business
Equity Residential (EQR), formed in March 1993, is a fully integrated real estate company engaged in the acquisition, development, ownership, management and operation of multifamily properties. EQR has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (REIT).
EQR is the general partner of, and as of December 31, 2004 owned an approximate 93.3% ownership interest in ERP Operating Limited Partnership, an Illinois limited partnership (the Operating Partnership). The Company is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT (UPREIT), under which all property ownership and business operations are conducted through the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. References to the Company include EQR, the Operating Partnership and each of the partnerships, limited liability companies and corporations controlled by the Operating Partnership and/or EQR.
As of December 31, 2004, the Company, directly or indirectly through investments in title holding entities, owned all or a portion of 939 properties in 32 states and the District of Columbia consisting of 200,149 units. The ownership breakdown includes:
|
|
Properties |

|

|
Unconsolidated Properties |
|

|
16,218 |
|
|
|
939 |
|
200,149 |
|
The Wholly Owned Properties are accounted for under the consolidation method of accounting. The Company beneficially owns 100% fee simple title to 841 of the 842 Wholly Owned Properties. The Company owns the building and improvements and leases the land underlying the improvements under a long-term ground lease that expires in 2026 for one property. This one property is consolidated and reflected as a real estate asset while the ground lease is accounted for as an operating lease in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 13, Accounting for Leases .
The Partially Owned Properties are controlled by the Company but have partners with minority interests and are accounted for under the consolidation method of accounting. The Unconsolidated Properties are partially owned but not controlled by the Company. With the exception of one property, the Unconsolidated Properties consist of investments in partnership interests and/or subordinated mortgages that are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The remaining one property consists of an investment in a limited liability company that, as a result of the terms of the operating agreement, is accounted for as a management contract right with all fees recognized as fee and asset management revenue. The above table does not include various uncompleted development properties.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Due to the Companys ability as general partner to control either through ownership or by contract the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, other than entities that own controlling interests in the Unconsolidated Properties and certain other entities in which the Company has investments, the Operating Partnership and each such subsidiary has been consolidated with the Company for financial reporting purposes. Effective March 31, 2004, the consolidated financial statements also include all variable interest entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary.
F-12
The Companys mergers and acquisitions were accounted for as purchases in accordance with either Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 16, Business Combinations , or SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations . SFAS No. 141 requires all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The fair value of the consideration given by the Company in the mergers were used as the valuation basis for each of the combinations. The accompanying consolidated statements of operations and cash flows include the results of the properties purchased through the mergers and through acquisitions from their respective closing dates.
Real Estate Assets and Depreciation of Investment in Real Estate
The Company allocates the purchase price of properties to net tangible and identified intangible assets acquired based on their fair values in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 141. In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, the Company utilizes a number of sources, including independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property, our own analysis of recently acquired and existing comparable properties in our portfolio, and other market data. The Company also considers information obtained about each property as a result of its pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing and leasing activities in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired. The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired real estate to various components as follows:
Land Based on actual purchase price if acquired separately or market research/comparables if acquired with an operating property.
Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment Ranges between $1,500 and $3,000 per apartment unit acquired as an estimate of the fair value of the appliances & fixtures inside a unit. The per-unit amount applied depends on the type of apartment building acquired. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of five years.
In-Place Leases The Company considers the value of acquired in-place leases that meet the definition outlined in SFAS No. 141, paragraph 37. The amortization period is the average remaining term of each respective in-place acquired lease.
Other Intangible Assets The Company considers whether it has acquired other intangible assets that meet the definition outlined in SFAS No. 141, paragraph 39, including any customer relationship intangibles. The amortization period is the estimated useful life of the acquired intangible asset.
Building Based on the fair value determined on an as-if vacant basis. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of thirty years.
Replacements inside a unit such as appliances and carpeting are depreciated over a five-year estimated useful life. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations as incurred and significant renovations and improvements that improve and/or extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized over their estimated useful life, generally five to ten years. Initial direct leasing costs are expensed as incurred as such expense approximates the deferral and amortization of initial direct leasing costs over the lease terms. Property sales or dispositions are recorded when title transfers and sufficient consideration has been received by the Company. Upon disposition, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts. Any gain or loss on sale is recognized in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The Company classifies real estate assets as real estate held for disposition when it is certain a property will be disposed of in accordance with SFAS No. 144 (see further discussion below).
The Company classifies properties under development and/or expansion and properties in the lease up phase (including land) as construction in progress until construction has been completed and all certificates of occupancy permits have been obtained.
F-13
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, Including Goodwill
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets . SFAS No. 142 prohibits the amortization of goodwill and requires that goodwill be reviewed for impairment at least annually. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS Nos. 142 and 144 were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company adopted these standards effective January 1, 2002. See Notes 13 and 19 for further discussion.
The Company periodically evaluates its long-lived assets, including its investments in real estate and goodwill, for indicators of permanent impairment. The judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on factors such as operational performance, market conditions, expected holding period of each asset and legal and environmental concerns. Future events could occur which would cause the Company to conclude that impairment indicators exist and an impairment loss is warranted.
For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company compares the expected future undiscounted cash flows for the long-lived asset against the carrying amount of that asset. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company further analyzes each individual asset for other temporary or permanent indicators of impairment. An impairment loss would be recorded for the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying amount of the asset if the Company deems this difference to be permanent.
For long-lived assets to be disposed of, an impairment loss is recognized when the estimated fair value of the asset, less the estimated cost to sell, is less than the carrying amount of the asset measured at the time that the Company has determined it will sell the asset. Long-lived assets held for disposition and the related liabilities are separately reported at the lower of their carrying amounts or their estimated fair values, less their costs to sell, and are not depreciated after reclassification to real estate held for disposition.
Cost Capitalization
See the Real Estate Assets and Depreciation of Investment in Real Estate section for discussion of the policy with respect to capitalization vs. expensing of fixed asset/repair and maintenance costs. In addition, the Company capitalizes the payroll and associated costs of employees directly responsible for and who spend all of their time on the supervision of major capital and/or renovation projects. These costs are reflected on the balance sheet as an increase to depreciable property.
The Company follows the guidance in SFAS No. 67, Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects , for all development projects and uses its professional judgment in determining whether such costs meet the criteria for capitalization or must be expensed as incurred. The Company capitalizes, through the date the certificates of occupancy ("CO") are issued (CO's are deemed final within 90 days of issuance), interest, real estate taxes and insurance and payroll and associated costs for those individuals directly responsible for and who spend all of their time on development activities. These costs are reflected on the balance sheet as construction in progress for each specific property. The Company expenses as incurred all payroll costs of on-site employees working directly at our properties, except as noted above on our development properties prior to certificate of occupancy issuance and on specific major rennovation at selected properties when additional incremental employees are hired.
F-14
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all demand deposits, money market accounts and investments in certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements purchased with a maturity of three months or less, at the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions. The combined account balances at one or more institutions typically exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance coverage, and, as a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage. The Company believes that the risk is not significant, as the Company does not anticipate the financial institutions non-performance.
Deferred Financing Costs
Deferred financing costs include fees and costs incurred to obtain the Companys line of credit and long-term financings. These costs are amortized over the terms of the related debt. Unamortized financing costs are written-off when debt is retired before the maturity date. The accumulated amortization of such deferred financing costs was $18.1 million and $16.0 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Including Derivative Instruments
The valuation of financial instruments under SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments , and SFAS No. 133 and its amendments (SFAS Nos. 137/138/149), Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities , requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the fair value of the instruments. The Company, where possible, bases the fair values of its financial instruments, including its derivative instruments, on listed market prices and third party quotes. Where these are not available, the Company bases its estimates on other factors relevant to the financial instruments.
In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effect of interest rate changes. The Company limits these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures including the use of derivatives to hedge interest rate risk on debt instruments.
The Company has a policy of only entering into contracts with major financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and other factors. When viewed in conjunction with the underlying and offsetting exposure that the derivatives are designed to hedge, the Company has not sustained a material loss from those instruments nor does it anticipate any material adverse effect on its net income or financial position in the future from the use of derivatives.
On January 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133 and its amendments (SFAS Nos. 137/138/149), which requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and to measure those instruments at fair value. Additionally, the fair value adjustments will affect either shareholders equity or net income depending on whether the derivative instruments qualify as a hedge for accounting purposes and, if so, the nature of the hedging activity. When the terms of an underlying transaction are modified, or when the underlying transaction is terminated or completed, all changes in the fair value of the instrument are marked-to-market with changes in value included in net income each period until the instrument matures. Any derivative instrument used for risk management that does not meet the hedging criteria of SFAS No. 133 is marked-to-market each period. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
The fair values of the Companys financial instruments, other than derivative instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, mortgage notes payable, other notes payable, line of credit and other financial instruments, approximate their carrying or contract values.
F-15
Revenue Recognition
Rental income attributable to leases is recorded when due from residents and is recognized monthly as it is earned, which is not materially different than on a straight-line basis. Leases entered into between a resident and a property, for the rental of an apartment unit, are generally year-to-year, renewable upon consent of both parties on an annual or monthly basis. Fee and asset management revenue and interest income are recorded on an accrual basis.
Stock-Based Compensation
Prior to 2003, the Company had chosen to account for its stock-based compensation in accordance with APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees , which resulted in no compensation expense for options issued with an exercise price equal to or exceeding the market value of the Companys Common Shares on the date of grant (intrinsic method). The Company elected to account for its stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and its amendment (SFAS No. 148), Accounting for Stock Based Compensation , effective in the first quarter of 2003, which resulted in compensation expense being recorded based on the fair value of the stock compensation granted.
The Company elected the Prospective Method which requires expensing of employee awards granted or modified after January 1, 2003. Compensation expense under all of the Companys plans is generally recognized over periods ranging from three months to five years. The cost related to stock-based employee compensation included in the determination of net income for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 is less than that which would have been recognized if the fair value based method had been applied to all awards since the original effective date of SFAS No. 123.
The Company will adopt SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, as required effective July 1, 2005. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) will have a material effect on its consolidated statements of operations or financial position.
The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the fair value based method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in each period presented:

(1) Share options for the year ended December 31, 2003 included $1.4 million of expense recognition related to options granted in the first quarter of 2003 to the Companys former chief executive officer. These options vested immediately upon grant.
The fair value of the option grants as computed under SFAS No. 123 would be recognized over the vesting period of the options. The fair value for the Companys share options was estimated at the time the share options were granted using the Black Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Companys share options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in managements opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its share options.

Income Taxes
Due to the structure of the Company as a REIT and the nature of the operations of the properties and management business, the results of operations do not contain a provision for federal income taxes. The Company is subject to certain state and local income, excise and franchise taxes. The aggregate cost of land and depreciable property for federal income tax purposes as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 was approximately $9.3 billion and $8.5 billion, respectively.
The Company has elected Taxable REIT Subsidiary (TRS) status for certain of its corporate subsidiaries. The federal income taxes for these TRS entities were not material during 2004, 2003 or 2002 and were recognized as general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
During the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, the Companys tax treatment of dividends and distributions were as follows:

Minority Interests
Operating Partnership: Net income is allocated to minority interests based on their respective ownership percentage of the Operating Partnership. The ownership percentage is calculated by dividing the number of units of limited partnership interest (OP Units) held by the minority interests by the total OP Units held by the minority interests and EQR. Issuance of additional common shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par value per share (the Common Shares), and OP Units changes the ownership interests of both the minority interests and EQR. Such transactions and the proceeds therefrom are treated as capital transactions.
Partially Owned Properties: The Company reflects minority interests in partially owned properties on the balance sheet for the portion of properties consolidated by the Company that are not wholly owned by the Company. The earnings or losses from those properties attributable to the minority interests are reflected as minority interests in partially owned properties in the consolidated statements of operations.
U se of Estimates
In preparation of the Companys financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
F-18
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications considered necessary for a fair presentation have been made to the prior period financial statements in order to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications have not changed the results of operations or shareholders equity.
Other
The Company adopted FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, as required, effective March 31, 2004. The adoption required the consolidation of all previously unconsolidated development projects. FIN No. 46 requires the Company to consolidate the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the activities of a variable interest entity, which for the Company includes only its development partnerships, if the Company is entitled to receive a majority of the entitys residual returns and/or is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from such entitys activities. As of the original formation of the respective joint ventures, the Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary and the fair value of the assets, liabilities and non-controlling interests of these development projects approximates carryover basis. Due to the March 31, 2004 effective date, the Company has only consolidated the results of operations beginning April 1, 2004. The adoption of FIN No. 46 did not have any effect on net income as the aggregate results of operations of these development properties were previously included in loss from investments in unconsolidated entities. See Note 4 for additional discussion.
The Company generally contributes between 25% and 35% of the project cost of the joint venture projects under development (constituting 100% of the equity), with the remaining cost financed through third-party construction mortgages. Voting rights are shared equally between the Company and its respective development partners and accordingly, these projects were accounted for under the equity method prior to the adoption of FIN No. 46.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity . SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for classifying and measuring as liabilities certain financial instruments that embody obligations of the issuer and have characteristics of both liabilities and equity. On November 7, 2003, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 150-3, which deferred for an indefinite period the classification and measurement provisions, but not the disclosure provisions (see discussion below), of SFAS No. 150 as it relates to noncontrolling interests that are classified as equity in the financial statements of a subsidiary but would be classified as a liability in the parents financial statements under SFAS No. 150 (e.g., minority interests in consolidated limited-life subsidiaries). The Company does not have any mandatorily redeemable preferred shares/units that fall within the scope of SFAS No. 150.
With regards to the aforementioned disclosure provisions, the Company is presently the controlling partner in various consolidated partnerships consisting of 39 properties and 7,220 units having a minority interest book value of $9.6 million at December 31, 2004. These partnerships contain provisions that require the partnerships to be liquidated through the sale of its assets upon reaching a date specified in each respective partnership agreement. The Company, as controlling partner, has an obligation to cause the property owning partnerships to distribute proceeds of liquidation to the Minority Interests in these Partially Owned Properties only to the extent that the net proceeds received by the partnerships from the sale of its assets warrant a distribution based on the partnership agreements. As of December 31, 2004, the Company estimates the value of Minority Interest distributions would have been approximately $111.3 million (Settlement Value) had the partnerships been liquidated. This Settlement Value is based on estimated third party consideration realized by the partnerships upon disposition of the Partially Owned Properties and is net of all other assets and liabilities, including yield maintenance on the mortgages encumbering the properties, that would have been due on December 31, 2004 had those mortgages been prepaid. Due to, among other things, the inherent uncertainty in the sale of real estate assets, the amount of any potential distribution to the Minority Interests in the Companys
F-19
Partially Owned Properties is subject to change. To the extent that the partnerships underlying assets are worth less than the underlying liabilities, the Company has no obligation to remit any consideration to the Minority Interests in Partially Owned Properties.
On July 31, 2003, the SEC clarified its position with respect to Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Topic D-42, The Effect on the Calculation of Earnings per Share for the Redemption or Induced Conversion of Preferred Stock . Under the SECs revised interpretation, in connection with the redemption of preferred shares/units, the original issuance costs of these shares/units must be treated in a manner similar to preferred distributions and deducted from net income in arriving at net income available to Common Shares. The clarification of EITF Topic D-42 was required to be adopted effective July 1, 2003 on a retroactive basis by restating prior periods included in the current financial statements. The Company recorded an $8.3 million cash premium and $11.9 million in original issuance costs as a premium on the redemption of its Series G Preferred Shares in December 2003. In addition, the Company recorded $1.1 million in original issuance costs as a premium on the redemption of its Series A Preference Interests in September 2004. The Company had no recorded original issuance costs associated with, nor did it incur any cash redemption premium upon redemption of, its Series L Preferred Shares redeemed in 2003.
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections . SFAS No. 145, among other items, rescinds the automatic classification of costs incurred on debt extinguishment as extraordinary charges. Instead, gains and losses from debt extinguishment should only be classified as extraordinary if they meet the unusual and infrequently occurring criteria outlined in APB No. 30. SFAS No. 145 is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2003. Prior period gains/losses have been reclassified to a component of interest expense.

In February 1998, the Company filed and the SEC declared effective a Form S-3 Registration Statement to register $1.0 billion of equity securities. In addition, the Company carried over $272.4 million related to a prior registration statement. As of December 31, 2004, $956.5 million in equity securities remained available for issuance under this registration statement.
During October 2002, the Company repurchased 5,092,300 of its Common Shares on the open market at an average price of $22.58 per share. The Company paid approximately $115.0 million for these shares, which were retired subsequent to the repurchase.
The equity positions of various individuals and entities that contributed their properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for a partnership interest are collectively referred to as the Minority Interests Operating Partnership. Subject to certain restrictions, the Minority Interests Operating Partnership may exchange their OP Units for EQR Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. These OP Units are classified as Minority Interests Operating Partnership in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Net proceeds from the Companys Common Share and Preferred Share (see definition below) offerings are contributed by the Company to the Operating Partnership. In return for those contributions, EQR receives a number of OP Units in the Operating Partnership equal to the number of Common Shares it has issued in the equity offering (or in the case of a preferred equity offering, a number of preference units in the Operating Partnership equal in number and having the same terms as the Preferred Shares issued in the equity offering). As a result, the net offering proceeds from Common Shares are allocated between shareholders equity and Minority Interests Operating Partnership to account for the change in their respective percentage ownership of the underlying equity of the Operating Partnership.
The Companys declaration of trust authorizes the Company to issue up to 100,000,000 preferred shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par value per share (the Preferred Shares), with specific rights, preferences and other attributes as the Board of Trustees may determine, which may include preferences, powers and rights that are senior to the rights of holders of the Companys Common Shares.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company paid approximately $3.3 million to terminate five interest rate swaps in conjunction with the repayment of the underlying mortgage loans. The Company recognized a $1.9 million loss in connection with these terminations (included in loss from investments in unconsolidated entities as the losses occurred prior to the acquisition and/or consolidation of the respective properties see further discussion in Notes 2 and 4). The Company also paid approximately $0.5 million to terminate two forward starting swaps in conjunction with the issuance of $300.0 million of five-year unsecured notes. The $0.5 million cost has been deferred and will be recognized as additional interest expense over the five-year life of the unsecured notes. The Company also paid approximately $3.5 million to terminate ten forward starting swaps in conjunction with the issuance of $500.0 million of ten-year unsecured notes. Approximately $3.3 million of the $3.5 million cost has been deferred and will be recognized as additional interest expense over the ten-year life of the
F-30
unsecured notes.
On December 31, 2004, the net derivative instruments were reported at their fair value as other assets of approximately $1.3 million and as other liabilities of approximately $9.2 million. As of December 31, 2004, there were approximately $21.0 million in deferred losses, net, included in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Based on the estimated fair values of the net derivative instruments at December 31, 2004, the Company may recognize an estimated $4.5 million of accumulated other comprehensive loss as additional interest expense during the twelve months ending December 31, 2005.

(1) Includes expenses paid in the current period for properties sold in prior periods related to the Companys period of ownership.
(2) Interest includes only specific amounts from each property sold.
For the properties sold during 2004 (excluding condominium conversion properties), the investment in real estate, net of accumulated depreciation, and the mortgage notes payable balances at December 31, 2003 were $500.0 million and $94.9 million, respectively.
On January 11, 2002, the Company disposed of its furniture rental business for $30.0 million in cash and received net proceeds of $28.7 million. After giving effect to a previously recorded impairment loss, no gain/loss on sale was recognized as the net book value at the sale date approximated the sales price.
14. Share Incentive Plans
On May 15, 2002, the shareholders of EQR approved the Companys 2002 Share Incentive Plan. The maximum aggregate number of awards that may be granted under this plan may not exceed 7.5% of the Companys outstanding Common Shares calculated on a fully diluted basis and determined annually on
F-33
the first day of each calendar year. As of January 1, 2005, this amount equaled 23,069,873, of which 17,683,625 is available for future issuance. No awards may be granted under the 2002 Share Incentive Plan after February 20, 2012.
Pursuant to the 2002 Share Incentive Plan and the Fifth Amended and Restated 1993 Share Option and Share Award Plan (collectively the Share Incentive Plans), officers, trustees, key employees and consultants of the Company may be offered the opportunity to acquire Common Shares through the grant of share options (Options) including non-qualified share options (NQSOs), incentive share options (ISOs) and share appreciation rights (SARs), or may be granted restricted or non-restricted shares. Additionally, officers and key employees of the Company may be awarded Common Shares, subject to conditions and restrictions as described in the Share Incentive Plans. Finally, certain executive officers of the Company are subject to the Companys performance based restricted share plan. Options, SARs, restricted shares and performance shares are sometimes collectively referred to herein as Awards.
The Options generally are granted at the fair market value of the Companys Common Shares at the date of grant, vest over a three year period, are exercisable upon vesting and expire ten years from the date of grant. The exercise price for all Options under the Share Incentive Plans shall not be less than the fair market value of the underlying Common Shares at the time the Option is granted. The Fifth Amended and Restated 1993 Share Option and Share Award Plan will terminate at such time as all outstanding Awards have expired or have been exercised/vested. The Board of Trustees may at any time amend or terminate the Share Incentive Plans, but termination will not affect Awards previously granted. Any Options which had vested prior to such a termination would remain exercisable by the holder thereof.
As to the Options that have been granted through December 31, 2004, generally, one-third are exercisable one year after the initial grant, one-third are exercisable two years following the date such Options were granted and the remaining one-third are exercisable three years following the date such Options were granted.
As to the restricted shares that have been awarded through December 31, 2004, these shares generally vest three years from the award date. During the three-year period of restriction, the employee receives quarterly dividend payments on their shares. The Companys unvested restricted shareholders receive dividends at the same rate and on the same date as any other Common Share holder. In addition, the Companys unvested restricted shareholders have the same voting rights as any other Common Share holder. As a result, dividends paid on unvested restricted shares are included as a distribution in excess of accumulated earnings and have not been considered in reducing net income available to Common Shares in a manner similar to the Companys preferred share dividends for the earnings per share calculation. If employment is terminated prior to the lapsing of the restriction, the shares are canceled.
In addition, each year the Companys executive officers receive performance-based awards. The executive officers have the opportunity to earn in Common Shares an amount as little as 0% to as much as 225% of the target number of performance-based awards. The owners of performance-based awards have no right to vote, receive dividends or transfer the awards until Common Shares are issued in exchange for the awards. The number of Common Shares the executive officer actually receives on the third anniversary of the grant date will depend on the excess, if any, by which the Companys Average Annual Return (i.e., the average of the Common Share dividends declared during each year as a percentage of the Common Share price as of the first business day of the first performance year and the average percentage increase in funds from operations (FFO) for each calendar year on a per share basis over the prior year) for the three performance years exceeds the average of the 10-year Treasury Note interest rate as of the first business day in January of each performance year (the T-Note Rate).

Fifty percent of the Common Shares to which an executive officer may be entitled under the performance share grants will vest, subject to the executives continued employment with the Company, on the third anniversary of the award (which will be the date the Common Shares are issued); twenty-five percent will vest on the fourth anniversary and the remaining twenty-five percent will vest on the fifth anniversary. The Common Shares will also fully vest upon the executives death, retirement at or after age 62, disability or upon a change in control of the Company.

Prior to 2003, the Company had chosen to account for its stock-based compensation in accordance with APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees , which resulted in no compensation expense for options issued with an exercise price equal to or exceeding the market value of the Companys Common Shares on the date of grant (intrinsic method). The Company has elected to account for its stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and its amendment (SFAS No. 148), Accounting for Stock Based Compensation , effective in the first quarter of 2003, which resulted in compensation expense being recorded based on the fair value of the stock compensation granted.
Compensation expense related to restricted and performance-based share grants was previously recognized in accordance with APB No. 25. The adoption of SFAS No. 123 does not significantly change the amount of compensation expense recognized for these grants.
See Note 2 for additional information regarding the Companys stock-based compensation.

15. Employee Plans
The Company established an Employee Share Purchase Plan (the ESPP) to provide employees and trustees the ability to annually acquire up to $100,000 of Common Shares of the Company. In 2003, the Companys shareholders approved an increase in the aggregate number of Common Shares available under the ESPP to 7,000,000 (from 2,000,000). The Company has 4,770,937 Common Shares available for purchase under the ESPP at December 31, 2004. The Common Shares may be purchased quarterly at a price equal to 85% of the lesser of: (a) the closing price for a share on the last day of such quarter; and (b) the greater of: (i) the closing price for a share on the first day of such quarter, and (ii) the average closing price for a share for all the business days in the quarter. The following table summarizes information regarding the Common Shares issued under the ESPP:

The Company established a defined contribution plan (the 401(k) Plan) to provide retirement benefits for employees that meet minimum employment criteria. The Company matches dollar for dollar up to the first 2% of eligible compensation that a participant contributes to the 401(k) Plan (4% for 2002 and prior years). Participants are vested in the Companys contributions over five years. The Company made contributions in the amount of $1.5 million and $3.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and expects to make contributions in the amount of approximately $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2004.
The Company may also elect to make an annual discretionary profit-sharing contribution as a percentage of each individual employees eligible compensation under the 401(k) Plan. The Company did not make a contribution for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 or 2002.
The Company established a supplemental executive retirement savings plan (the SERP) to provide certain officers and trustees an opportunity to defer a portion of their eligible compensation in order to save for retirement. The SERP is restricted to investments in Company Common Shares, certain marketable securities that have been specifically approved, and cash equivalents. The deferred compensation liability represented in the SERP and the securities issued to fund such deferred compensation liability are consolidated by the Company and carried on the Companys balance sheet, and the Companys Common Shares held in the SERP are accounted for as a reduction to paid in capital.
16. Distribution Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan
On November 3, 1997, the Company filed with the SEC a Form S-3 Registration Statement to register 14,000,000 Common Shares pursuant to a Distribution Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan (the DRIP Plan). The registration statement was declared effective on November 25, 1997. The Company has 11,571,446 Common Shares available for issuance under the DRIP Plan at December 31, 2004.
The DRIP Plan provides holders of record and beneficial owners of Common Shares and Preferred Shares with a simple and convenient method of investing cash distributions in additional Common Shares (which is referred to herein as the Dividend Reinvestment DRIP Plan). Common Shares may also be purchased on a monthly basis with optional cash payments made by participants in the DRIP Plan and interested new investors, not currently shareholders of the Company, at the market price of the Common Shares less a discount ranging between 0% and 5%, as determined in accordance with the DRIP Plan (which
F-37
is referred to herein as the Share Purchase DRIP Plan). Common Shares purchased under the DRIP Plan may, at the option of the Company, be directly issued by the Company or purchased by the Companys transfer agent in the open market using participants funds.
17. Transactions with Related Parties
The Company provided asset and property management services to certain related entities for properties not owned by the Company. Fees received for providing such services were approximately $0.2 million, $0.3 million and $0.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
The Company reimbursed its Chief Operating Officer for the actual operating costs (excluding acquisition costs) of operating his personal aircraft for himself and other employees on Company business. Amounts incurred were approximately $0.3 million, $0.2 million and $0.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
The Company leases its corporate headquarters from an entity controlled by EQRs Chairman of the Board of Trustees. Amounts incurred for such office space for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively, were approximately $1.9 million, $1.7 million and $1.6 million. The Company believes these amounts equal market rates for such space.
The Company had the following additional non-continuing related party transactions:
The Company leased space in an office building in Augusta, Georgia indirectly owned by one of EQRs trustees since May 2003 and directly owned by an entity affiliated with the same EQR trustee from 1998 to 2003 (individual was a trustee through May 2004). Amounts incurred for such office space were approximately $0.2 million, $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively;
Certain executive officers of the Company purchased Common Shares which were financed with loans made by the Company, all of which were repaid in full in 2002;
The Company made consulting payments to two former trustees (individuals were trustees through May 2003) of approximately $0.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2002; and
The Company paid legal fees to a law firm of which one of EQRs former trustees (individual was a trustee through May 2002) is a partner of approximately $0.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2002.
18. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company, as an owner of real estate, is subject to various Federal, state and local environmental laws. Compliance by the Company with existing laws has not had a material adverse effect on the Company. However, the Company cannot predict the impact of new or changed laws or regulations on its current properties or on properties that it may acquire in the future.
In August 2004, the Company tried a class action lawsuit in Palm Beach County, Florida regarding certain charges made to residents who terminated their leases early or failed to provide sufficient notice of intent to vacate. In December 2004, the Court issued a Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law holding those fees legally uncollectible under Florida law. In recognition of the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, which awarded damages and interest to the class in the amount of approximately $1.6 million, the Company established a reserve of approximately $1.6 million and correspondingly recorded this as a general and administrative expense. Due to pending appeals, the award is neither final nor enforceable. Accordingly, it is not possible to determine or predict the ultimate outcome of the case. While no assurances can be given, the Company does not believe that this lawsuit,
F-38
if the ultimate outcome is unfavorable, will have a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Company does not believe there is any other litigation pending or threatened against the Company which, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably may be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company established a reserve and recorded a corresponding expense of $15.2 million in estimated uninsured property damage at certain of its properties primarily located in Florida caused by Hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne (included in rents received in advance and other liabilities and real estate taxes and insurance expense on the consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations, respectively). Of this amount, approximately $9.4 million had been spent for hurricane related repairs through December 31, 2004.
As of December 31, 2004 the Company has five projects totaling 1,306 units in various stages of development with estimated completion dates ranging through September 30, 2006. The three development agreements currently in place have the following key terms:
The first development partner has the right, at any time following completion of a project subject to the agreement, to stipulate a value for such project and offer to sell its interest in the project to the Company based on such value. If the Company chooses not to purchase the interest, the Company must agree to a sale of the project to an unrelated third party at such value. The Companys partner must exercise this right as to all projects subject to the agreement within five years after the receipt of the final certificate of occupancy on the last developed property. In connection with this development agreement, the Company has an obligation to provide up to $40.0 million in credit enhancements to guarantee a portion of the third party construction financing. As of February 2, 2005, the Company had set-aside $5.0 million towards this credit enhancement. The Company would be required to perform under this agreement only if there was a material default under a third party construction mortgage agreement. This agreement expires no later than December 31, 2018. Notwithstanding the termination of the agreement, the Company shall have recourse against its development partner for any losses incurred.
The second development partner has the right, at any time following completion of a project subject to the agreement, to require the Company to purchase the partners interest in that project at a mutually agreeable price. If the Company and the partner are unable to agree on a price, both parties will obtain appraisals. If the appraised values vary by more than 10%, both the Company and its partner will agree on a third appraiser to determine which original appraisal is closest to its determination of value. The Company may elect at that time not to purchase the property and instead, authorize its partner to sell the project at or above the agreed-upon value to an unrelated third party. Five years following the receipt of the final certificate of occupancy on the last developed property, the Company must purchase, at the agreed-upon price, any projects remaining unsold.
The third development partner has the exclusive right for six months following stabilization, as defined, to market a subject project for sale. Thereafter, either the Company or its development partner may market a subject project for sale. If the Companys development partner proposes the sale, the Company may elect to purchase the project at the price proposed by its partner or defer the sale until two independent appraisers appraise the project. If the two appraised values vary by more than 5%, a third appraiser will be chosen to determine the fair market value of the property. Once a value has been determined, the Company may elect to purchase the property or authorize its development partner to sell the project at the agreed-upon value.
In connection with one of its mergers, the Company provided a guaranty of a credit enhancement agreement with respect to certain tax-exempt bonds issued to finance certain public improvements at a multifamily development project. The Company has the obligation to provide this guaranty for a period of eight years from the consummation of the merger or through May 2005. The Company would be required
F-39
to perform under this agreement only if there was a draw on the letter of credit issued by the credit enhancement party. The counterparty has also agreed to indemnify the Company for any losses suffered. As of December 31, 2004, this guaranty was still in effect at a commitment amount of $12.7 million (reduced to $10.4 million effective in January 2005) and no current outstanding liability.
During the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, total operating lease payments incurred for office space, including a portion of real estate taxes, insurance, repairs and utilities, aggregated $5.8 million, $5.7 million and $5.8 million, respectively.
The Company has entered into a retirement benefits agreement with its Chairman of the Board of Trustees and deferred compensation agreements with two of its executive officers and its former chief executive officer. During the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, the Company recognized compensation expense of $39,000, $3.0 million and $5.1 million, respectively, related to these agreements.
The following table summarizes the Companys contractual obligations for minimum rent payments under operating leases and deferred compensation for the next five years and thereafter as of December 31, 2004:

19. Asset Impairment
The Company recorded approximately $1.2 million of asset impairment charges related to its technology investments in each of the years ending December 31, 2003 and 2002. These charges were the result of a review of the existing investments reflected on the consolidated balance sheet. These impairment losses are reflected on the consolidated statements of operations in total expenses and include the write-down of assets classified as other assets.
For the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company recorded approximately $17.1 million of asset impairment charges related to its corporate housing business. Following the guidance in SFAS No. 142, these charges were the result of the Companys decision to reduce the carrying value of its corporate housing business to $30.0 million, given the weakness in the economy and managements expectations for near-term performance. This impairment loss is reflected on the consolidated statements of operations as impairment on corporate housing business and on the consolidated balance sheets as a reduction in goodwill, net.
20. Reportable Segments
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by senior management. Senior management decides how resources are allocated and assesses performance on a monthly basis.
The Companys primary business is owning, managing, and operating multifamily residential properties, which includes the generation of rental and other related income through the leasing of
F-40
apartment units to residents and includes Equity Corporate Housing (ECH). Senior management evaluates the performance of each of our apartment communities on an individual basis; however, each of our apartment communities has similar economic characteristics, residents, and products and services so they have been aggregated into one reportable segment. The Companys rental real estate segment comprises approximately 99.4%, 99.2% and 99.4% of total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Companys rental real estate segment comprises approximately 99.8% and 99.7% of total assets at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
The primary financial measure for the Companys rental real estate segment is net operating income (NOI), which represents rental income less: 1) property and maintenance expense; 2) real estate taxes and insurance expense; and 3) property management expense (all as reflected in the accompanying statements of operations). The Company believes that NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real estate company because it is a direct measure of the actual operating results of the Companys apartment communities. Current year NOI is compared to prior year NOI and current year budgeted NOI as a measure of financial performance. The following table presents the NOI from our rental real estate specific to continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively:

The Companys fee and asset management activity is immaterial and does not meet the threshold requirements of a reportable segment as provided for in SFAS No. 131.
All revenues are from external customers and there is no customer who contributed 10% or more of the Companys total revenues during the three years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 or 2002.
21. Subsequent Events/Other

SECTION 2.1 Number . The number of Trustees initially shall be two, which number may thereafter be increased or decreased by the Trustees then in office from time to time; however, the total number of Trustees shall be not less than two and not more than 15 . No reduction in the number of Trustees shall cause the removal of any Trustee from office prior to the expiration of his term.
SECTION 2.2 Term .
At each annual meeting of Shareholders beginning at the annual meeting of Shareholders in 2003, all Trustees shall be elected to hold office for a term of one year. Trustees may be re-elected any number of times. Each Trustee shall hold office until the election and qualification of his or her successor.
SECTION 2.3 Resignation, Removal or Death . Any Trustee may resign by written notice to the remaining Trustees, effective upon execution and delivery to the Trust of such written notice or upon any future date specified in the notice. A Trustee may be removed, only with Cause (as hereinafter defined), at a meeting of the Shareholders called for that purpose, by the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the Shares then outstanding and entitled to vote in the election of Trustees. As used herein, Cause shall mean (a) material theft, fraud or embezzlement or active and deliberate dishonesty by a Trustee; (b) habitual neglect of duty by a Trustee having a material and adverse significance to the Trust; or (c) the conviction of a Trustee of a felony or of any crime involving moral turpitude.

Written evidence of the qualification and acceptance of election or appointment of successor and additional Trustees may be filed with the records of the Trust and in such other offices, agencies or places as the Trust or Trustees may deem necessary or desirable.
3
Subject to the express limitations herein or in the Bylaws, (1) the business and affairs of the Trust shall be managed under the direction of the Board of Trustees and (2) the Board of Trustees shall have full, exclusive and absolute power, control and authority over the Trust Property and over the business of the Trust. The Board of Trustees may take any actions as in its sole judgment and discretion are necessary or desirable to conduct the business of the Trust. This Declaration of Trust shall be construed with a presumption in favor of the grant of power and authority to the Board of Trustees. Any construction of this Declaration or determination made in good faith by the Board of Trustees concerning the powers and authority of the Trust, the Shareholders, the Board of Trustees or the offices of the Trust hereunder shall be conclusive. The powers of the Board of Trustees shall in no way be limited or restricted by reference to or inference from the terms of this or any other provision of this Declaration or construed or deemed by inference or otherwise in any manner to exclude or limit the powers conferred upon the Board of Trustees under the general laws of the State of Maryland as now or hereafter in force. In the case of an ambiguity in the application of any provision of this Declaration of Trust, including any provision relating to share ownership and transfers, the Board of Trustees shall have the power to determine the application of that provision (subject, however, to the provisions of Section 7.2(a)(1)(A)), and such determination shall be final and conclusive for all purposes.
The Board of Trustees, without any action by the Shareholders, shall have and may exercise, on behalf of the Trust, without limitation, the power to terminate the status of the Trust as a real estate investment trust under the Code; to determine that compliance with any restriction or limitations on ownership and transfers of shares of the Trusts beneficial interest set forth in Article VII of this Declaration of Trust is no longer required in order for the Trust to qualify as a REIT; to adopt, amend and repeal Bylaws; to elect officers in the manner prescribed in the Bylaws; to solicit proxies from holders of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust; and to do any other acts and deliver any other documents necessary or appropriate to the foregoing powers.
The fundamental investment policy of the Trust is to make investments in such a manner as to comply with the REIT Provisions of the Code and with the requirements of Title 8 with respect to the composition of the Trusts investments and the derivation of its income. Subject to Section 6.7, the Trustees shall use their best efforts to carry out this fundamental investment policy and to conduct the affairs of the Trust in such a manner as to continue to qualify the Trust for the tax treatment provided in the REIT Provisions of the Code; provided, however , that no Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Trust shall be liable for any act or omission resulting in the loss of tax benefits under the Code, except to the extent permitted in Section 11.2. The Board of Trustees may change from time to time, by resolution or in the Bylaws of the Trust, such investment policies as it determines to be in the best interest of the Trust, including prohibitions or restrictions upon certain types of investments.

The exercise of the powers and rights of the Board of Trustees pursuant to this Section 5.6 shall be subject to the provisions of any class or series of Shares at the time outstanding. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Declaration of Trust, no determination shall be made by the Board of Trustees nor shall any transaction be entered into by the Trust which would cause any Shares or other beneficial interest in the Trust not to constitute transferable shares or transferable certificates of beneficial interest under Section 856(a)(2) of the Code or which would cause any distribution to constitute a preferential dividend as described in Section 562(c) of the Code.

SECTION 6.3 Advisor Agreements . Subject to such approval of the Shareholders and other conditions, if any, as may be required by any applicable statute, rule or regulation, the Board of Trustees may authorize the execution and performance by the Trust of one or more agreements with any person, corporation, association, company, trust, partnership (limited or general) or other organization whereby, subject to the supervision and control of the Board of Trustees, any such other person, corporation, association, company, trust, partnership (limited or general) or other organization (the Advisor) shall render or make available to the Trust managerial, investment, advisory and/or related services, office space and other services and facilities (including, if deemed advisable by the Board of Trustees, the management or supervision of the investments of the Trust) upon such terms and conditions as may be provided in such agreement or agreements (including, if deemed fair and equitable by the Board of Trustees, the compensation payable thereunder by the Trust).

or general) or other organization, although one or more of the Trustees or officers of the Trust may be a party to any such agreement or an officer, director, stockholder or member of such other party, and no such agreement or transaction shall be invalidated or rendered void or voidable solely by reason of the existence of any such relationship if the existence is disclosed or known to the Board of Trustees, and the contract or transaction is approved by the Board of Trustees (including the affirmative vote of a majority of the disinterested Trustees even if they constitute less than a quorum of the Board). Any Trustee who is also a director, officer, stockholder or member of such other entity may be counted in determining the existence of a quorum at any meeting of the Board of Trustees considering such matter.

12
Excepted Holder shall Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Shares in excess of the Excepted Holder Limit for such Excepted Holder.
(B) No Person shall Beneficially or Constructively Own Shares to the extent that (i) such Beneficial Ownership of Shares would result in the Trust being closely held within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code (without regard to whether the ownership interest is held during the last half of a taxable year), or (ii) such Beneficial or Constructive Ownership of Shares would result in the Trust otherwise failing to qualify as a REIT (including, but not limited to, Constructive Ownership that would result in the Trust owning (actually or Constructively) an interest in a tenant that is described in Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code if the income derived by the Trust from such tenant would cause the Trust to fail to satisfy any of the gross income requirements of Section 856(c) of the Code).
(C) No Person shall Transfer any Shares if, as a result of the Transfer, the Shares would be beneficially owned by less than 100 Persons (determined without reference to the rules of attribution under Section 544 of the Code). Notwithstanding any other provisions contained herein, any Transfer of Shares (whether or not such Transfer is the result of a transaction entered into through the facilities of the NYSE or any other national securities exchange or automated inter-dealer quotation system) that, if effective, would result in Shares being beneficially owned by less than 100 Persons (determined under the principles of Section 856(a)(5) of the Code) shall be void ab initio , and the intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such Shares.
(2) Transfer in Trust . If any Transfer of Shares (whether or not such Transfer is the result of a transaction entered into through the facilities of the NYSE or any other national securities exchange or automated inter-dealer quotation system) occurs which, if effective, would result in any Person Beneficially Owning or Constructively Owning Shares in violation of Section 7.2(a)(1)(A) or (B),
(i) then that number of Shares the Beneficial or Constructive Ownership of which otherwise would cause such Person to violate Section 7.2(a)(1)(A) or (B) (rounded to the nearest whole share) shall be automatically transferred to a Charitable Trust for the benefit of a Charitable Beneficiary, as described in Section 7.3, effective as of the close of business on the Business Day prior to the date of such Transfer, and such Person shall acquire no rights in such Shares; or
(ii) if the transfer to the Charitable Trust described in clause (i) of this sentence would not be effective for any reason to prevent the violation of Section 7.2(a)(1)(A) or (B), then the Transfer of that number of Shares that otherwise would cause any Person to violate Section 7.2(a)(1)(A) or (B) shall be void ab initio , and the intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such Shares.
(b) Remedies for Breach . If the Board of Trustees or any duly authorized committee thereof shall at any time determine in good faith that a Transfer or other event has taken place that results in a violation of Section 7.2(a) or that a Person intends to acquire or has attempted to acquire Beneficial or Constructive Ownership of any Shares in violation of Section 7.2(a) (whether or not such violation is intended), the Board of Trustees or a committee thereof shall take
13
such action as it deems advisable to refuse to give effect to or to prevent such Transfer or other event, including, without limitation, causing the Trust to redeem Shares, refusing to give effect to such Transfer on the books of the Trust or instituting proceedings to enjoin such Transfer or other event; provided, however , that any Transfer or attempted Transfer or other event in violation of Section 7.2(a) shall automatically result in the transfer to the Charitable Trust described above, and, where applicable, such Transfer (or other event) shall be void ab initio as provided above irrespective of any action (or non-action) by the Board of Trustees or a committee thereof.
(c) Notice of Restricted Transfer . Any Person who acquires or attempts or intends to acquire Beneficial Ownership or Constructive Ownership of Shares that will or may violate Section 7.2(a)(l), or any Person who would have owned Shares that resulted in a transfer to the Charitable Trust pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.2(a)(2), shall immediately give written notice to the Trust of such event, or in the case of such a proposed or attempted transaction, give at least 15 days prior written notice, and shall provide to the Trust such other information as the Trust may request in order to determine the effect, if any, of such acquisition or ownership on the Trusts status as a REIT.
(d) Owners Required To Provide Information . From the Initial Date and prior to the Restriction Termination Date:
(1) every owner of more than five percent (or such lower percentage as required by the Code or the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder) of the outstanding Shares, within 30 days after the end of each taxable year, shall give written notice to the Trust stating the name and address of such owner, the number of Shares Beneficially Owned and a description of the manner in which such Shares are held; provided that a shareholder of record who holds outstanding Shares as nominee for another Person, which other Person is required to include in gross income the dividends received on such Shares (an Actual Owner), shall give written notice to the Trust stating the name and address of such Actual Owner and the number of Shares of such Actual Owner with respect to which the shareholder of record is nominee. Each owner shall provide to the Trust such additional information as the Trust may request in order to determine the effect, if any, of such Beneficial Ownership on the Trusts status as a REIT and to ensure compliance with the Ownership Limit.
(2) each Person who is a Beneficial or Constructive Owner of Shares and each Person (including the shareholder of record) who is holding Shares for a Beneficial or Constructive Owner shall provide to the Trust such information as the Trust may request, in good faith, in order to determine the Trusts status as a REIT and to comply with requirements of any taxing authority or governmental authority or to determine such compliance.
(e) Remedies Not Limited . Subject to Article III of the Declaration of Trust, nothing contained in this Section 7.2 shall limit the authority of the Board of Trustees to take such other action as it deems necessary or advisable to protect the Trust and the interests of its shareholders in preserving the Trusts status as a REIT.
(f) Ambiguity . If Section 7.2 or 7.3 requires an action by the Board of Trustees and the Declaration of Trust fails to provide specific guidance with respect to such action, the
14
Board of Trustees shall have the power to determine the action to be taken so long as such action is not contrary to the provisions of Sections 7.1, 7.2 or 7.3.
(g) Exceptions .
(1) The Board, in its sole and absolute discretion, may grant to any Person who makes a request therefor an exception to the Ownership Limit with respect to the ownership of any series or class of Preferred Shares, subject to the following conditions and limitations: (A) the Board shall have determined that (x) assuming such Person would Beneficially or Constructively Own the maximum amount of Common Shares and Preferred Shares permitted as a result of the exception to be granted and (y) assuming that all other Persons who would be treated as individuals for purposes of Section 542(a)(2) (determined taking into account Section 856(h)(3)(A) of the Code) would Beneficially or Constructively Own the maximum amount of Common Shares and Preferred Shares permitted under this Article VII (taking into account any exception, waiver, or exemption granted under this Section 7.2(g) to (or with respect to) such Persons), the Trust would not be closely held within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code (assuming that the ownership of Shares is determined during the second half of a taxable year) and would not otherwise fail to qualify as a REIT; and (B) such Person provides to the Board such representations and undertakings, if any, as the Board may, in its sole and absolute discretion, require (including, without limitation, an agreement as to a reduced Ownership Limit or Excepted Holder Limit for such Person with respect to the Beneficial or Constructive Ownership of one or more other classes of Shares not subject to the exception), and such Person agrees that any violation of such representations and undertakings or any attempted violation thereof will result in the application of the remedies set forth in Section 7.2 with respect to Shares held in excess of the Ownership Limit or the Excepted Holder Limit (as may be applicable) with respect to such Person (determined without regard to the exception granted such Person under this subparagraph (1)). If a member of the Board requests that the Board grant an exception pursuant to this subparagraph (1) with respect to such member or with respect to any other Person if such Board member would be considered to be the Beneficial or Constructive Owner of Shares owned by such Person, such member of the Board shall not participate in the decision of the Board as to whether to grant any such exception.
(2) In addition to exceptions permitted under subparagraph (1) above, the Board shall except a Person from the Ownership Limit if: (i) such Person submits to the Board information satisfactory to the Board, in its reasonable discretion, demonstrating that such Person is not an individual for purposes of Section 542(a)(2) of the Code (determined taking into account Section 856(h)(3)(A) of the Code); (ii) such Person submits to the Board information satisfactory to the Board, in its reasonable discretion, demonstrating that no Person who is an individual for purposes of Section 542(a)(2) of the Code (determined taking into account Section 856(h)(3)(A) of the Code) would be considered to Beneficially Own Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit by reason of the Excepted Holders ownership of Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit pursuant to the exception granted under this subparagraph (2); (iii) such Person submits to the Board information satisfactory to the Board, in its reasonable discretion, demonstrating that clause (ii) of subparagraph (1)(B) of Section 7.2(a) will not be violated by reason of the Excepted Holders ownership of Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit pursuant to the exception granted under this subparagraph (2); and (iv) such Person provides to the Board such representations and undertakings, if any, as the Board may, in its reasonable discretion, require to ensure that the
15
conditions in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) hereof are satisfied and will continue to be satisfied throughout the period during which such Person owns Shares in excess of the Ownership Limit pursuant to any exception thereto granted under this subparagraph (2), and such Person agrees that any violation of such representations and undertakings or any attempted violation thereof will result in the application of the remedies set forth in Section 7.2 with respect to Shares held in excess of the Ownership Limit with respect to such Person (determined without regard to the exception granted such Person under this subparagraph (2)).
(3) Prior to granting any exception or exemption pursuant to subparagraph (1) or (2), the Board may require a ruling from the IRS or an opinion of counsel, in either case in form and substance satisfactory to the Board, in its sole and absolute discretion as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to determine or ensure the Trusts status as a REIT; provided, however , that the Board shall not be obligated to require obtaining a favorable ruling or opinion in order to grant an exception hereunder.
(4) Subject to Section 7.2(a)(1)(B), an underwriter that participates in a public offering or a private placement of Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares) may Beneficially or Constructively Own Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares) in excess of the Ownership Limit, but only to the extent necessary to facilitate such public offering or private placement.
(5) The Board of Trustees may only reduce the Excepted Holder Limit for an Excepted Holder: (1) with the written consent of such Excepted Holder at any time, or (2) pursuant to the terms and conditions of the agreements and undertakings entered into with such Excepted Holder in connection with the establishment of the Excepted Holder Limit for that Excepted Holder. No Excepted Holder Limit shall be reduced to a percentage that is less than the Ownership Limit.
(h) Increase in Ownership Limit . The Board of Trustees may from time to time increase the Ownership Limit, subject to the limitations provided in this Section 7.2(h).
(1) The Ownership Limit may not be increased if, after giving effect to such increase, five Persons who are considered individuals pursuant to Section 542 of the Code, as modified by Section 856(h)(3) of the Code (taking into account all of the Excepted Holders), could Beneficially Own, in the aggregate, more than 49.5% of the value of the outstanding Shares.
(2) Prior to the modification of the Ownership Limit pursuant to this Section 7.2(h), the Board may require such opinions of counsel, affidavits, undertakings or agreements as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to determine or ensure the Trusts status as a REIT if the modification in the Ownership Limit were to be made.
(i) Legend . Each certificate for Shares shall bear substantially the following legend:
The shares represented by this certificate are subject to restrictions on Beneficial and Constructive Ownership and Transfer for the purpose of the Trusts maintenance of its status as a Real Estate Investment Trust (a
16
REIT) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). Subject to certain further restrictions and except as expressly provided in the Trusts Declaration of Trust, (i) no Person may Beneficially or Constructively Own Common Shares of the Trust in excess of 5.0 percent (in value or number of shares) of the outstanding Common Shares of the Trust unless such Person is an Excepted Holder (in which case the Excepted Holder Limit shall be applicable); (ii) with respect to any class or series of Preferred Shares, no Person may Beneficially or Constructively Own more than 5.0 percent (in value or number of shares) of the outstanding shares of such class or series of Preferred Shares of the Trust, unless such Person is an Excepted Holder (in which case the Excepted Holder Limit shall be applicable); (iii) no Person may Beneficially or Constructively Own Shares that would result in the Trust being closely held under Section 856(h) of the Code or otherwise cause the Trust to fail to qualify as a REIT; and (iv) no Person may Transfer Shares if such Transfer would result in Shares of the Trust being owned by fewer than 100 Persons. Any Person who Beneficially or Constructively Owns or attempts to Beneficially or Constructively Own Shares which cause or will cause a Person to Beneficially or Constructively Own Shares in excess or in violation of the above limitations must immediately notify the Trust. If any of the restrictions on transfer or ownership are violated, the Shares represented hereby will be automatically transferred to a Charitable Trustee of a Charitable Trust for the benefit of one or more Charitable Beneficiaries. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain events, attempted Transfers in violation of the restrictions described above may be void ab initio . A Person who attempts to Beneficially or Constructively Own Shares in violation of the ownership limitations described above shall have no claim, cause of action, or any recourse whatsoever against a transferor of such Shares. All capitalized terms in this legend have the meanings defined in the Trusts Declaration of Trust, as the same may be amended from time to time, a copy of which, including the restrictions on transfer and ownership, will be furnished to each holder of Shares of the Trust on request and without charge.
Instead of the foregoing legend, the certificate may state that the Trust will furnish a full statement about certain restrictions on transferability to a shareholder on request and without charge.

Such transfer to the Charitable Trustee shall be deemed to be effective as of the close of business on the Business Day prior to the purported Transfer or other event that results in the transfer to the Charitable Trust pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(2). The Charitable Trustee shall be appointed by the Trust and shall be a Person
17
unaffiliated with the Trust and any Prohibited Owner. Each Charitable Beneficiary shall be designated by the Trust as provided in Section 7.3(g).

The Prohibited Owner shall have no claim, cause of action, or any other recourse whatsoever against the purported transferor of such Shares.
(c) Dividend and Voting Rights . The Charitable Trustee shall have all voting rights and rights to dividends or other distributions with respect to Shares held in the Charitable Trust, which rights shall be exercised for the exclusive benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary. Any dividend or other distribution paid prior to the discovery by the Trust that Shares have been transferred to the Charitable Trustee shall be paid with respect to such Shares to the Charitable Trustee upon demand and any dividend or other distribution authorized but unpaid shall be paid when due to the Charitable Trustee.

Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of or any distribution of the assets of the Trust, the Charitable Trustee shall be entitled to receive, ratably with each other holder of Shares of the class or series of Shares that is held in the Charitable Trust, that portion of the assets of the Trust available for distribution to the holders of such class or series (determined based upon the ratio that the number of Shares or such class or series of Shares held by the Charitable Trustee bears to the total number of Shares of such class or series of Shares then outstanding).

forth in Section 7.2(a)(1). Upon such sale, the interest of the Charitable Beneficiary in the Shares sold shall terminate and the Charitable Trustee shall distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the Prohibited Owner and to the Charitable Beneficiary as provided in this Section 7.3(e). The Prohibited Owner shall receive the lesser of (1) the price paid by the Prohibited Owner for the Shares or, if the Prohibited Owner did not give value for the Shares in connection with the event causing the Shares to be held in the Charitable Trust (e.g., in the case of a gift, devise or other such transaction), the Market Price of the Shares on the day of the event causing the Shares to be held in the Charitable Trust and (2) the price per share received by the Charitable Trustee from the sale or other disposition of the Shares held in the Charitable Trust. Any net sales proceeds in excess of the amount payable to the Prohibited Owner shall be immediately paid to the Charitable Beneficiary. If, prior to the discovery by the Trust that Shares have been transferred to the Charitable Trustee, such Shares are sold by a Prohibited Owner, then (i) such Shares shall be deemed to have been sold on behalf of the Charitable Trust and (ii) to the extent that the Prohibited Owner received an amount for such Shares that exceeds the amount that such Prohibited Owner was entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 7.3(e), such excess shall be paid to the Charitable Trustee upon demand. The Charitable Trustee shall have the right and power (but not the obligation) to offer any Equity Share held in trust for sale to the Trust on such terms and conditions as the Charitable Trustee shall deem appropriate.
(f) Purchase Right in Shares Transferred to the Charitable Trustee . Shares transferred to the Charitable Trustee shall be deemed to have been offered for sale to the Trust, or its designee, at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the price per share in the transaction that resulted in such transfer to the Charitable Trust (or, in the case of a devise or gift, the Market Price at the time of such devise or gift) and (ii) the Market Price on the date the Trust, or its designee, accepts such offer. The Trust shall have the right to accept such offer until the Charitable Trustee has sold the Shares held in the Charitable Trust pursuant to Section 7.3(e). Upon such a sale to the Trust, the interest of the Charitable Beneficiary in the Shares sold shall terminate and the Charitable Trustee shall distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the Prohibited Owner.
(g) Designation of Charitable Beneficiaries . By written notice to the Charitable Trustee, the Trust shall designate one or more nonprofit organizations to be the Charitable Beneficiary of the interest in the Charitable Trust such that (i) Shares held in the Charitable Trust would not violate the restrictions set forth in Section 7.2(a)(1) in the hands of such Charitable Beneficiary and (ii) each such organization must be described in Sections 501(c)(3), 170(b)(1)(A) or 170(c)(2) of the Code.
SECTION 7.4 NYSE Transactions . Nothing in this Article VII shall preclude the settlement of any transaction entered into through the facilities of the NYSE or any other national securities exchange or automated inter-dealer quotation system.

(vi) If the Series B Redemption Date is after a Record Date and before the related Quarterly Dividend Date, the dividend payable on such Quarterly Dividend Date shall be paid to the holder

The foregoing voting provisions will not apply if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding Series B Preferred Shares shall have been redeemed or called for redemption and sufficient funds shall have been deposited in trust to effect such redemption.

36
Preferred Shares so called for redemption, so as to be, and to continue to be available therefor, then, from and after the Series C Redemption Date, dividends on the Series C Preferred Shares so called for redemption shall cease to accumulate, and said shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and shall not have the status of Series C Preferred Shares and all rights of the holders thereof as shareholders of the Trust (except the right to receive the Series C Redemption Price) shall cease. Upon surrender, in accordance with said notice, of the certificates for any Series C Preferred Shares so redeemed (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Trust shall so require and the notice shall so state), such Series C Preferred Shares shall be redeemed by the Trust at the Series C Redemption Price. In case fewer than all the Series C Preferred Shares represented by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate or certificates shall be issued representing the unredeemed Series C Preferred Shares without cost to the holder thereof.
(iii) Any funds deposited with a bank or trust company for the purpose of redeeming Series C Preferred Shares shall be irrevocable except that:
(a) the Trust shall be entitled to receive from such bank or trust company the interest or other earnings, if any, earned on any money so deposited in trust, and the holders of any shares redeemed shall have no claim to such interest or other earnings; and
(b) any balance of monies so deposited by the Trust and unclaimed by the holders of the Series C Preferred Shares entitled thereto at the expiration of two years from the applicable Series C Redemption Date shall be repaid, together with any interest or other earnings earned thereon, to the Trust, and after any such repayment, the holders of the shares entitled to the funds so repaid to the Trust shall look only to the Trust for payment without interest or other earnings.

(vi) If the Series C Redemption Date is after a Record Date and before the related Quarterly Distribution Date, the distribution payable on such Quarterly Distribution Date shall be paid to the holder in whose name the Series C Preferred Shares to be redeemed are registered at the close of business on such Record Date notwithstanding the redemption thereof between such Record Date and the related Quarterly Distribution Date or the Trusts default in the payment of the distribution due.
(vii) In case of redemption of less than all Series C Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, the Series C Preferred Shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata from the holders of record of such shares in proportion to the number of Series C Preferred Shares held by such holders (with adjustments to avoid redemption of fractional shares) or by any other equitable method determined by the Trust.
(6) Voting Rights . Except as required by law, the holders of the Series C Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to vote at any meeting of the shareholders for election of trustees or for any other purpose or otherwise to participate in any action taken by the Trust or the shareholders thereof, or to receive notice of any meeting of shareholders.
(A) In any matter in which the Series C Preferred Shares are entitled to vote (as expressly provided herein or as may be required by law), including any action by written consent, each Series C Preferred Share shall be entitled to 10 votes, each of which 10 votes may be directed separately by the holder thereof (or by any proxy or proxies of such holder). With respect to each Series C Preferred Share, the holder
38
thereof may designate up to 10 proxies, with each such proxy having the right to vote a whole number of votes (totaling 10 votes per Series C Preferred Share).
(B) Whenever distributions on any Series C Preferred Shares shall be in arrears for six or more quarterly periods, the holders of the Depositary Shares representing such Series C Preferred Shares, voting separately as a class with all other series of Preferred Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, will be entitled to vote for the election of two additional Trustees of the Trust at a special meeting called by the holders of record of at least ten percent (10%) of any series of Preferred Shares so in arrears (unless such request is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of the shareholders) or at the next annual meeting of shareholders, and at each subsequent annual meeting until all distributions accumulated on such Series C Preferred Shares for the past distribution periods and the then current distribution period shall have been fully paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment. In such case, the entire Board of Trustees of the Trust will be increased by two Trustees.
(C) So long as any Series C Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Trust will not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Series C Preferred Shares outstanding at the time, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting (such series voting separately as a class), (i) authorize or create, or increase the authorized or issued amount of, any class or series of shares of beneficial interest ranking prior to the Series C Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up or reclassify any authorized shares of beneficial interest of the Trust into such shares, or create, authorize or issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any such shares; or (ii) amend, alter or repeal the provisions of this Declaration of Trust whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise (an Event), so as to materially and adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Series C Preferred Shares or the holders thereof; provided, however, with respect to the occurrence of any of the Events set forth in (ii) above, so long as the Series C Preferred Shares remain outstanding with the terms thereof materially unchanged, taking into account that upon the occurrence of an Event, the Trust may not be the surviving
39
entity, the occurrence of any such Event shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of holders of Series C Preferred Shares and provided further that (x) any increase in the amount of the authorized Preferred Shares or the creation or issuance of any other Series C Preferred Shares, or (y) any increase in the amount of authorized Series C Preferred Shares or any other Preferred Shares, in each case ranking on a parity with or junior to the Series C Preferred Shares with respect to payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers.
The foregoing voting provisions will not apply if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding Series C Preferred Shares shall have been redeemed or called for redemption and sufficient funds shall have been deposited in trust to effect such redemption.
(7) Conversion . The Series C Preferred Shares are not convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or securities of the Trust.

48
holders of Series D Preferred Shares and provided further that (x) any increase in the amount of the authorized Preferred Shares or the creation or issuance of any other Series D Preferred Shares, or (y) any increase in the amount of authorized Series D Preferred Shares or any other Preferred Shares, in each case ranking on a parity with or junior to the Series D Preferred Shares with respect to payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers.
The foregoing voting provisions will not apply if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding Series D Preferred Shares shall have been redeemed or called for redemption and sufficient funds shall have been deposited in trust to effect such redemption.

(8) Exclusion of Other Rights .
Except as may otherwise be required by law, the Series D Preferred Shares shall not have any voting powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, other than those specifically set forth in this Section 13.4 (as such Section may be amended from time to time) and in the Declaration of Trust. The Series D Preferred Shares shall have no preemptive or subscription rights.
(9) Headings of Subdivisions .
The headings of the various subdivisions hereof are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of any of the provisions hereof.

If any voting powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of the Series D Preferred Shares and qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof set forth in this Section 13.4 (as this Section 13.4 may be amended from time to time) is invalid, unlawful or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of law or public policy, all other voting powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of Series D Preferred Shares and qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof set forth in this Section 13.4 (as so amended) which can be given effect without the invalid, unlawful or unenforceable voting powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of Series D Preferred Shares and qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof herein set forth, shall nevertheless, remain in full force and effect and no preferences or other rights, voting powers, restrictions,
49
limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications or terms or conditions of redemption of the Series D Preferred Shares herein set forth shall be deemed dependent upon any other such voting powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special right of Series D Preferred Shares and qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof unless so expressed herein.
(c) Articles VII of the Trusts Declaration of Trust shall be supplemented by adding the following new section 7.26.
7.26 Special Rules for Series D Preferred Shares
(1) Certain Definitions .
For purposes of this section 7.26 the following terms shall have the following meanings:
Closing Date of the Series D Preferred Shares Offering shall mean the time and date of payment for and delivery of Series D Preferred Shares issued pursuant to the Trusts effective registration statement for such Series D Preferred Shares filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Special Triggering Event shall mean either (i) the redemption or purchase by the Trust of all or a portion of the outstanding shares of beneficial interest in the Trust, or (ii) a change in the value of the Series D Preferred Shares relative to any other class of beneficial interest in the Trust.
(2) Special Triggering Event . If during the period commencing on the Closing Date of the Series D Preferred Shares Offering and prior to the Restriction Termination Date, a Special Triggering Event (if effective) or other event or occurrence (if effective) would result in any violation of section 7.2(a) of the Trusts Declaration of Trust (or would result in the Trust being closely held within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code or would otherwise cause the Trust to fail to qualify as a REIT), then (i) the number of Series D Preferred Shares (rounded up to the nearest whole share) that would (but for this section 7.26) cause any Person to Beneficially Own either Series D Preferred Shares, or to Beneficially own Series D Preferred Shares and any other shares of beneficial interest in the Trust, in violation of section 7.2(a) (or would result in the Trust being closely held or otherwise fail to qualify as a REIT) shall constitute Excess Shares and shall be treated as provided in Article VII. Such designation and treatment shall be effective as of the close of business on the Business Day prior to the date of the Special Triggering Event or other event or occurrence.
SECTION 13.5. Series E Preferred Shares . Pursuant to Section 5.4 of this Declaration, a series of preferred shares of beneficial interest designated the Series E Cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares of Beneficial Interest (the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares) is hereby established on the following terms:
50
1. Designation and Amount . The shares of the series of preferred shares established hereunder shall be designated as Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and the authorized number of shares constituting such series shall be 4,600,000. The par value of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall be $.01 per share.
2. Distributions .
(a) The holders of shares of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares will be entitled to receive, when, as and if authorized by the Board of Trustees out of assets of the Trust legally available therefor (and subject to the limitation described in the last sentence of this paragraph), cumulative cash distributions on the shares of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares at the annual rate of $1.75 per share, payable quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on January 1, 1994 (which initial partial distribution shall be from the date of issuance of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares). Such distributions shall be cumulative from the date of original issue of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares. If permissible under applicable law and provided the distributions will qualify for the dividends paid deduction (within the meaning of Sections 561 and 562 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or any successor provisions thereto), such distributions shall be paid as follows: first, from income of the Trust other than net capital gains, and the balance, if any, from net capital gains of the Trust. If the Board of Trustees determines, in its sole discretion, that distributions to be paid in accordance with the preceding sentence would not qualify for such dividends paid deduction, then such distributions shall be paid in a manner determined by the Board of Trustees. Each distribution shall be paid to the holders of record of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares as they appear on the share register of the Trust on such record date, not more than 90 days preceding the distribution payment date thereof, as shall be fixed by the Board of Trustees or a duly authorized committee thereof. If a holder converts Series E Convertible Preferred Shares after the close of business on the record date for a distribution and before the opening of business on the payment date for such distribution, then, pursuant to Section 13.5(7) hereof, the holder will be required to pay to the Trust at the time of such conversion the amount of such distribution (unless the shares were converted after the issuance of a notice of redemption with respect to such shares, in which event the holder of such shares shall be entitled to the distribution payable thereon on such distribution payment date without making such payment).
(b) If any Convertible Preferred Shares are outstanding, no full distributions shall be declared or paid or set apart for payment on any other preferred shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking as to distributions on a parity with or junior to the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares for any period unless full cumulative distributions have been declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof has been set apart for such payment on the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares for all past distribution periods and the then current distribution period. If distributions are not paid in full, or not declared in full and a sum sufficient for such full payment is not set apart for the payment thereof, upon the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and any other preferred shares ranking on a parity as to distributions with the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, all distributions declared upon Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and upon any other preferred shares ranking on a parity as to distributions shall be paid or declared pro rata so
51
that in all cases the amount of distributions paid or declared per share on the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and such other preferred shares shall bear to each other the same ratio that accumulated distributions per share, including distributions accrued or in arrears, if any, on the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and such other preferred shares bear to each other. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, unless full cumulative distributions on the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for such full payment set apart for payment for all past distribution periods and the then current distribution period, no distributions (other than distributions in shares of Common Shares (as hereinafter defined) or in any other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking junior to the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares as to distribution rights and the liquidation preference) shall be declared or paid or set apart for payment or other distribution upon the Trusts common shares of beneficial interest, par value $.01 per share (the Common Shares), or, except as provided above, on any other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking junior to or on a parity with the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares as to distribution rights or the liquidation preference, nor shall any Common Shares or any other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking junior to or on a parity with the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares as to distribution rights or the liquidation preference be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired for any consideration (or any payment made to or available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any such shares) by the Trust or any subsidiary of the Trust (except by conversion into or exchange for shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking junior to the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares as to distribution rights and the liquidation preference). Holders of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to any distributions, whether payable in cash, property or shares of beneficial interest, in excess of full accrued and cumulative distributions as herein provided. No interest or sum of money in lieu of interest shall be payable in respect of any distribution payment or payments on the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares that may be in arrears.
The terms accrued distributions, distributions accrued and distributions in arrears, whenever used herein with reference to shares of preferred shares of beneficial interest, shall be deemed to mean an amount which shall be equal to distributions thereon at the annual distribution rates per share for the respective series thereof from the date or dates on which such distributions commence to accrue to the end of the then current quarterly distribution period for such preferred shares (or, in the case of redemption, to the date of redemption), less the amount of all distributions paid, or declared in full and set aside for the payment thereof, upon such shares of preferred shares.
(c) Distributions payable on the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares for any period less than a full quarterly distribution period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Quarterly distributions payable on the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall be computed by dividing the annual distribution rate by four.
3. Trustees Right to Refuse to Transfer Series E Convertible Preferred Shares; Limitation on Holdings .
52
(a) The terms and provisions of this Section 13.5(3) shall apply in addition to, and not in limitation of, the terms and provisions of Article VII of this Declaration of Trust.
(b) Each Person (as defined in Section 1.5 of the Declaration of Trust) who owns directly or indirectly more than five percent in number or value of the total Series E Convertible Preferred Shares outstanding shall, within 30 days after January 1 of each year, give written notice to the Trust stating the Persons name and address, the number of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares directly or indirectly owned by such Person, and a description of the capacity in which such Series E Convertible Preferred Shares are held. For purposes of this Section 13.5, the number and value of the total Series E Convertible Preferred Shares outstanding shall be determined by the Board of Trustees in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive for all purposes hereunder. In addition, each direct or indirect holder of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, irrespective of such shareholders percentage ownership of outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, shall upon demand disclose to the Trust in writing such information with respect to the direct or indirect ownership of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares as the Board of Trustees deems necessary from time to time to enable the Board of Trustees to determine whether the Trust complies with the REIT Provisions of the Code (as defined in Section 1.5 of the Declaration of Trust), to comply with the requirements of any taxing authority or governmental agency or to determine any such compliance.
(c) If, in the opinion of the Board of Trustees, which shall be binding upon any prospective acquiror of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, any proposed transfer or issuance would jeopardize the status of the Trust as a real estate investment trust under the REIT Provisions of the Code, the Board of Trustees shall have the right, but not the duty, to refuse to permit such transfer or issuance or refuse to give effect to such transfer or issuance and to take any action to void any such issuance or cause any such transfer not to occur.
(d) As a condition to any transfer and/or registration of transfer on the books of the Trust of any Series E Convertible Preferred Shares which could result in direct or indirect ownership (as hereinafter defined) of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares exceeding 20% of the lesser of the number or the value of the total Series E Convertible Preferred Shares outstanding (the Excess Preferred Shares) by a Person other than a Preferred Excepted Person (as defined in Section 3(e) below), such prospective transferee shall give written notice to the Trust of the proposed transfer and shall furnish such opinions of counsel, affidavits, undertakings, agreements and information as may be required by the Board of Trustees no later than the 15th day prior to any transfer which, if consummated, would result in such ownership.
(e) Any transfer of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares that would (i) create a direct or indirect owner of Excess Preferred Shares other than a Preferred Excepted Person; or (ii) result in the Trust being closely held within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code, shall be void ab initio and the prospective acquiror shall not be entitled to any rights afforded to owners of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares hereunder and shall be deemed never to have had an interest therein. Any issuance of Series E
53
Convertible Preferred Shares that would (i) create a direct or indirect owner of Excess Preferred Shares other than a Preferred Excepted Person; or (ii) result in the Trust being closely held within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code, shall be void ab initio and the prospective acquiror shall not be entitled to any rights afforded to owners of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares hereunder and shall be deemed never to have had an interest therein.
Preferred Excepted Person shall mean any Person approved by the Board of Trustees, at their option and in their sole discretion, provided, however, that such approval shall not be granted to any Person whose ownership of in excess of 20% of the lesser of the number or the value of the total Series E Convertible Preferred Shares outstanding would result, directly, indirectly or as a result of attribution of ownership, in termination of the status of the Trust as a real estate investment trust under the REIT Provisions of the Code.
(f) The Trust, by notice to the holder thereof, may purchase any or all Series E Convertible Preferred Shares that are proposed to be transferred pursuant to a transfer which, in the opinion of the Board of Trustees, which shall be binding upon any proposed transferor or transferee of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, would result in any Person acquiring Excess Preferred Shares, or would otherwise jeopardize the status of the Trust as a real estate investment trust under the REIT Provisions of the Code. The Trust shall have the power, by lot or other means deemed equitable by the Board of Trustees in their sole discretion, to purchase such Excess Preferred Shares from the prospective transferor. The purchase price for any Excess Preferred Shares shall be equal to the fair market value of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares on the last trading day immediately preceding the day on which notice of such proposed transfer is sent, as reflected in the closing sale price for the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, if then listed on a national securities exchange, or such price for the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares on the principal exchange if then listed on more than one national securities exchange, or if the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares are not then listed on a national securities exchange, the latest bid quotation for the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares if then traded over-the-counter, or, if no such closing sales prices or quotations are available, then the purchase price shall be equal to the fair market value of such Series E Convertible Preferred Shares as determined by the Board of Trustees in good faith. Prompt payment of the purchase price shall be made in cash by the Trust in such manner as may be determined by the Board of Trustees. From and after the date fixed for purchase by the Board of Trustees, and so long as payment of the purchase price for the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares to be so redeemed shall have been made or duly provided for, the holder of any Excess Preferred Shares so called for purchase shall cease to be entitled to dividends, distributions, voting rights and other benefits with respect to such Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, excepting only the right to payment of the purchase price fixed as aforesaid. Any dividend or distribution paid to a proposed transferee of Excess Preferred Shares prior to the discovery by the Trust that the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares have been transferred in violation of this Section 3 shall be repaid to the Trust upon demand.
54
(g) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Declaration of Trust or the Trusts Bylaws, Sections 13.5(3)(e), (f), (g) and (h) may not be amended or repealed without the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares then outstanding and entitled to vote. If Section 13.5(3)(e), (f), (g) or (h) is determined to be void or invalid by virtue of any legal decision, statute, rule or regulation, then the acquiror of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares in violation of such Sections shall be deemed, at the option of the Trust, to have acted as agent on behalf of the Trust in acquiring such Series E Convertible Preferred Shares on behalf of the Trust.
(h) Subject to Section 13.5(3)(l), notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 13.5 to the contrary, any purported transfer, sale or acquisition of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares (whether such purported transfer, sale or acquisition results from the direct or indirect acquisition of ownership of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares) which would result in the termination of the status of the Trust as a real estate investment trust under the REIT Provisions of the Code shall be null and void ab initio . Any such Series E Convertible Preferred Shares may be treated by the Board of Trustees in the manner prescribed for Excess Preferred Shares in subsection (f) of this Section 13.5(3).
(i) Subject to Section 13.5(3)(l), nothing contained in this Section 13.5(3) or in any other provision of this Section 13.5 shall limit the authority of the Board of Trustees to take such other action as they deem necessary or advisable to protect the Trust and the interests of the shareholders by preservation of the Trusts status as a real estate investment trust under the REIT Provisions of the Code.
(j) If any provision of this Section 13.5(3) or any application of any such provision is determined to be invalid by any federal or state court having jurisdiction over the issues, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected and other applications of such provision shall be affected only to the extent necessary to comply with the determination of such court. To the extent this Section 13.5(3) may be inconsistent with any other provision of this Section 13.5, this Section 13.5(3) shall be controlling.
(k) For purposes of this Section 13.5, Series E Convertible Preferred Shares not owned directly shall be deemed to be owned indirectly by a person if that person or a group of which he is a member would be the beneficial owner of such Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and/or would be considered to own such Series E Convertible Preferred Shares by reason of the REIT Provisions of the Code.
(l) Notwithstanding any other provision of Section 13.5(3), nothing in this Section 13.5 shall preclude the settlement of transactions entered into through the facilities of the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. The fact that the settlement of any transaction is permitted shall not negate the effect of any other provision of this Section 13.5(3) and any transferee in such a transaction shall be subject to all of the provisions and limitations set forth in this Section 13.5(3).
55

(b) If fewer than all of the outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares are to be redeemed, the shares to be redeemed shall be determined pro rata or by lot or in such other manner and subject to such regulations as the Board of Trustees in its sole discretion shall prescribe. In the event that such redemption is to be by lot, if as a result of such redemption any holder of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares would become a holder of in excess of 20% of the lesser of the number or the value of the total Series E Convertible Preferred Shares outstanding because such holders Series E Convertible Preferred Shares were not redeemed, or were only redeemed in part, then the Trust shall redeem the requisite number of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares of such shareholder such that he will not hold in excess of 20% of the lesser of the number or the value of the total Series E Convertible Preferred Shares outstanding subsequent to such redemption, unless the holder is a Preferred Excepted Person (as defined in Section 3(e) hereof), in which event the Trust shall have the option to redeem such requisite number of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, as determined in the sole discretion of the Board of Trustees.
(c) At least 30 days but not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for the redemption of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, the Trust shall mail a written notice to each holder of record of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares to be redeemed in a postage prepaid envelope addressed to such holder at his address as shown on the records of the Trust, notifying such holder of the election of the Trust to redeem such shares, stating the date fixed for redemption thereof (the Redemption Date), the redemption price, the number of shares to be redeemed (and, if fewer than all the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares are to be redeemed, the number of shares to be redeemed from
56
such holder) and the place(s) where the certificate(s) representing such shares are to be surrendered for payment. On or after the Redemption Date each holder of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares to be redeemed shall present and surrender his certificate or certificates for such shares to the Trust at the place designated in such notice and thereupon the redemption price of such shares shall be paid to or on the order of the person whose name appears on such certificate or certificates as the owner thereof and each surrendered certificate shall be cancelled. In the event that fewer than all the shares represented by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares. From and after the Redemption Date (unless default shall be made by the Trust in payment of the redemption price), all distributions on the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares designated for redemption in such notice shall cease to accrue, and all rights of the holders thereof as shareholders of the Trust, except the right to receive the redemption price of such shares (including all accrued and unpaid distributions up to the Redemption Date) upon the surrender of certificates representing the same, shall cease and terminate and such shares shall not thereafter be transferred (except with the consent of the Trust) on the books of the Trust, and such shares shall not be deemed to be outstanding for any purpose whatsoever. At its election, the Trust prior to the Redemption Date may irrevocably deposit the redemption price (including all accrued and unpaid distributions up to the Redemption Date) of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares so called for redemption in trust for the holders thereof with a bank or trust company (having a capital surplus and undivided profits aggregating not less than $50,000,000) in the Borough of Manhattan, City and State of New York, or in any other city in which the Trust at the time shall maintain a transfer agency with respect to such shares, in which case the aforesaid notice to holders of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares to be redeemed shall state the date of such deposit, shall specify the office of such bank or trust company as the place of payment of the redemption price, and shall call upon such holders to surrender the certificates representing such shares at such place on or after the date fixed in such redemption notice (which shall not be later than the Redemption Date) against payment of the redemption price (including all accrued and unpaid distributions up to the Redemption Date). Any interest accrued on such funds shall be paid to the Trust from time to time. Any moneys so deposited which shall remain unclaimed by the holders of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares at the end of two years after the Redemption Date shall be returned by such bank or trust company to the Trust.
If a notice of redemption has been given pursuant to this Section 13.5(4) and any holder of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall, prior to the close of business on the last business day preceding the Redemption Date, give written notice to the Trust pursuant to Section 13.5(7) below of the conversion of any or all of the shares to be redeemed held by such holder (accompanied by a certificate or certificates for such shares, duly endorsed or assigned to the Trust, and any necessary transfer tax payment, as required by Section 13.5(7) below, then such redemption shall not become effective as to such shares to be converted, such conversion shall become effective as provided in Section 13.5(7) below and any moneys set aside by the Trust for the redemption of such shares of converted Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall revert to the general funds of the Trust (unless such shares were converted after the close of business on the record date for a distribution and before the opening of business on the payment date for such distribution, in which
57
event the holders of such shares shall be entitled to the distribution payable thereon on such distribution payment date).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless full cumulative distributions on all outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for payment for all past distribution periods and the then current distribution period, no Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall be redeemed unless all outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares are simultaneously redeemed; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent the purchase or acquisition of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares pursuant to a purchase or exchange offer made on the same terms to holders of all outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, and, unless full cumulative distributions on all outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for payment for all past distribution periods and the then current distribution period, the Trust shall not purchase or otherwise acquire directly or indirectly any Series E Convertible Preferred Shares (except by conversion into or exchange for shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking junior to the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares as to distribution rights and the liquidation preference).
(d) The Series E Convertible Preferred Shares redeemed, repurchased or retired pursuant to the provisions of this Section 13.5(4) or surrendered to the Trust upon conversion shall thereupon be retired and may not be reissued as Series E Convertible Preferred Shares but shall thereafter have the status of authorized but unissued shares of beneficial interest.
5. Voting Rights .
(a) The holders of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to vote on any matter except (i) as provided in Section 13.5(9), (ii) as provided in Section 13.5(5)(b) and (iii) as required by law.
(b) In the event the Trust shall have failed to declare and pay or set apart for payment in full the distributions accumulated on the outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares for any six consecutive quarterly distribution payment periods (a Preferential Distribution Non-Payment), the number of trustees of the Trust shall be increased by two and the holders of the outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, voting together as a class with all other classes or series of preferred shares of the Trust ranking on a parity with the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares with respect to distribution rights and then entitled to vote on the election of such additional two trustees, shall be entitled to elect such two additional trustees until the full distributions accumulated on all outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares have been declared and paid or set apart for payment. Upon the occurrence of a Preferential Distribution Non-Payment or a vacancy in the office of a Preferred Shares Trustee (as defined below), the Board of Trustees shall within a reasonable period call a special meeting of the holders of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and all holders of other classes or series of preferred shares of the Trust ranking on a parity with the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares with respect to distribution rights who are then entitled to vote on the election of such additional trustee
58
or trustees for the purpose of electing the additional trustee or trustees. If and when all accumulated distributions on the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares have been declared and paid or set aside for payment in full, the holders of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall be divested of the special voting rights provided by this Section 13.5(5)(b), subject to revesting in the event of each and every subsequent Preferential Distribution Non-Payment. Upon termination of such special voting rights attributable to all holders of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and shares of any other class or series of preferred shares of the Trust ranking on a parity with the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares with respect to distribution rights, the term of office of each trustee elected by the holders of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and such parity preferred shares (a Preferred Shares Trustee) pursuant to such special voting rights shall forthwith terminate and the number of trustees constituting the entire Board of Trustees shall be reduced by the number of Preferred Shares Trustees. Any Preferred Shares Trustee may be removed by, and shall not be removed otherwise than by, the vote of the holders of record of a majority of the outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and all other series of preferred shares of the Trust ranking on a parity with the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares with respect to distribution rights who were entitled to vote in such Preferred Shares Trustees election, voting as a separate class, at a meeting called for such purpose.
(c) So long as any Series E Convertible Preferred Shares are outstanding, the number of trustees constituting the entire Board of Trustees of the Trust shall at all times be such that the exercise, by the holders of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and the holders of preferred shares of the Trust ranking on a parity with the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares with respect to distribution rights, of the right to elect trustees under the circumstances provided for in subclause (b) of this Section 13.5(5) will not contravene any other provision of this Declaration restricting the number of trustees which may constitute the entire Board of Trustees of the Trust.
(d) Trustees elected pursuant to subclause (b) of this Section 13.5(5) shall serve until the earlier of (x) the next annual meeting of the shareholders of the Trust and the election (by the holders of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and the holders of preferred shares of the Trust ranking on a parity with the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares with respect to distribution rights) and qualification of their respective successors or (y) the termination of the term of office of each Preferred Shares Trustee upon the termination of the special voting rights as provided for in Section 13.5(5)(b).
(e) So long as a Preferential Distribution Non-Payment shall continue, any vacancy in the office of a Preferred Shares Trustee may be filled by vote of the holders of record of a majority of the outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and all other series of preferred shares ranking on a parity with the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares with respect to distribution rights who are then entitled to vote in the election of such Preferred Shares Trustee as provided above. As long as the Preferential Distribution Non-Payment shall continue, holders of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall not, as such shareholders, be entitled to vote on the election or removal of trustees other than Preferred Shares Trustees, but shall not be divested of any other voting rights provided to such shareholders by law, this Declaration with respect to any other matter to be acted upon by the shareholders of the Trust.
59
6. Liquidation Preference .
(a) In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Trust, whether voluntary or otherwise, after payment or provision for payment of the debts and other liabilities of the Trust, the holders of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, in cash, out of the remaining assets of the Trust legally available therefor, the amount of Twenty-five Dollars ($25.00) for each Series E Convertible Preferred Share, plus an amount equal to all distributions accrued and unpaid on each such share up to the date of such distribution of assets, before any distribution shall be made to the holders of Common Shares or any other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking (as to any such distribution of assets) junior to the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares. If upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust, the assets distributable among the holders of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and all other classes and series of preferred shares ranking (as to any such distribution of assets) on a parity with the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares are insufficient to permit the payment in full to the holders of all such shares of all preferential amounts payable to all such holders, then the entire assets of the Trust thus distributable shall be distributed ratably among the holders of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares and such other classes and series of preferred shares ranking (as to any such distribution of assets) on a parity with the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares in proportion to the respective amounts that would be payable per share if such assets were sufficient to permit payment in full.
(b) For purposes of this Section 13.5(6), a distribution of assets in any dissolution, winding up or liquidation shall not include (i) any consolidation or merger of the Trust with or into any other corporation, (ii) any dissolution, liquidation, winding up or reorganization of the Trust immediately followed by incorporation of another corporation to which such assets are distributed or (iii) a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Trusts assets to another corporation; provided, however , that, in each case, effective provision is made in the charter of the resulting and surviving corporation or otherwise for the recognition, preservation and protection of the rights of the holders of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares.
(c) After the payment of the full preferential amounts provided for herein to the holders of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares or funds necessary for such payment have been set aside in trust for the holders thereof, such holders shall be entitled to no other or further participation in the distribution of the assets of the Trust.
(d) In determining whether a distribution by dividend, redemption or other acquisition of Shares or otherwise is permitted under Maryland law, no effect shall be given to amounts that would be needed, if the Trust were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of shareholders whose preferential rights on dissolution are superior to those receiving the distribution.

7. Conversion .
(a) Holders of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall have the right, exercisable at any time and from time to time, except in the case of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares called for redemption as set forth below, to convert all or any such Series E Convertible Preferred Shares into Common Shares at the conversion price of $44.93 per Common Share (equivalent to a conversion rate of approximately 0.5564 Common Shares for each Series E Convertible Preferred Share so converted), subject to adjustment as described below. In the case of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares called for redemption, conversion rights will expire at the close of business on the last business day preceding the Redemption Date. Notice of redemption at the option of the Trust must be mailed not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date as provided in Section 13.5(4)(c) hereof. Upon conversion, no adjustment or payment will be made for distributions, but if any holder surrenders Series E Convertible Preferred Shares for conversion after the close of business on the record date for the payment of a distribution and prior to the opening of business on the related distribution payment date, then, notwithstanding such conversion, the distribution payable on such distribution payment date will be paid to the registered holder of such shares on such distribution record date. In such event, such shares, when surrendered for conversion during the period between the close of business on any distribution record date and the opening of business on the corresponding distribution payment date, must be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the distribution payable on such distribution payment date on the shares so converted (unless such shares were converted after the issuance of a notice of redemption with respect to such shares, in which event such shares shall be entitled to the distribution payable thereon on such distribution payment date without making such payment).
(b) Any holder of one or more Series E Convertible Preferred Shares electing to convert such share or shares shall deliver the certificate or certificates therefor to the principal office of any transfer agent for the Common Shares, with the form of notice of election to convert as the Trust shall prescribe fully completed and duly executed and (if so required by the Trust or any conversion agent) accompanied by instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trust and to any conversion agent, duly executed by the registered holder or his duly authorized attorney, and transfer taxes, stamps or funds therefor or evidence of payment thereof if required pursuant to Section 13.5(7)(a) or 13.5(7)(d) hereof. The conversion right with respect to any such shares shall be deemed to have been exercised at the date upon which the certificates therefor accompanied by such duly executed notice of election and instruments of transfer and such taxes, stamps, funds or evidence of payment shall have been so delivered, and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of the Common Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of the Common Shares upon said date.
(c) No fractional Common Share or scrip representing a fractional share shall be issued upon conversion of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares. If more than one Series E Convertible Preferred Share shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same holder, the number of full Common Shares which shall be issuable
61
upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares so surrendered. Instead of any fractional Common Share which would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, the Trust shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fraction in an amount equal to the same fraction of the closing price for the Common Shares on the last trading day preceding the date of conversion. The closing price for such day shall be the last reported sales price regular way or, in case no such reported sale takes place on such date, the average of the reported closing bid and asked prices regular way, in either case on the New York Stock Exchange, or if the Common Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on such Exchange, on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Shares are listed or admitted to trading or, if not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the closing sale price of the Common Shares or in case no reported sale takes place, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, on NASDAQ or any comparable system. If the Common Shares are not quoted on NASDAQ or any comparable system, the Board of Trustees shall in good faith determine the current market price on the basis of such quotation as it considers appropriate.
(d) If a holder converts Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, the Trust shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issuance of Common Shares upon the conversion. The holder, however, shall pay to the Trust the amount of any tax which is due (or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trust payment thereof) if the shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of such holder and shall pay to the Trust any amount required by the last sentence of Section 13.5(7)(a) hereof.
(e) The Trust shall reserve and shall at all times have reserved out of its authorized but unissued Common Shares a sufficient number of Common Shares to permit the conversion of the then outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares. All Common Shares which may be issued upon conversion of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and not subject to preemptive or other similar rights. In order that the Trust may issue Common Shares upon conversion of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, the Trust will endeavor to comply with all applicable Federal and State securities laws and will endeavor to list such Common Shares to be issued upon conversion on each securities exchange on which the Common Shares are listed.
(f) The conversion rate in effect at any time shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
(i) In case the Trust shall (1) pay or make a distribution in Common Shares to holders of the Common Shares, (2) reclassify the outstanding Common Shares into shares of some other class or series of shares, (3) subdivide the outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares or (4) combine the outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of Common Shares, the conversion rate immediately prior to such action shall be adjusted so that the holder of any
62
Series E Convertible Preferred Shares thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of Common Shares which he would have owned immediately following such action had such Series E Convertible Preferred Shares been converted immediately prior thereto. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 13.5(7)(f)(i) shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.
(ii) In case the Trust shall issue rights or warrants to all holders of the Common Shares entitling them to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible into Common Shares) at a price per share less than the current market price (as determined pursuant to Section 13.5(7)(f)(iv)) of the Common Shares on such record date, the number of Common Shares into which each Series E Convertible Preferred Share shall be convertible shall be adjusted so that the same shall be equal to the number determined by multiplying the number of Common Shares into which such Series E Convertible Preferred Share was convertible immediately prior to such record date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus the number of additional Common Shares offered (or into which the convertible securities so offered are convertible), and of which the denominator shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date, plus the number of Common Shares which the aggregate offering price of the additional Common Shares offered (or into which the convertible securities so offered are convertible) would purchase at such current market price. Such adjustments shall become effective immediately after such record date for the determination of the holders of the Common Shares entitled to receive such distribution. For purposes of this subsection (ii), the number of Common Shares at any time outstanding shall not include Common Shares held in the treasury of the Trust.
(iii) In case the Trust shall distribute to all holders of the Common Shares any class of shares of beneficial interest other than the Common Shares, evidences of
63
indebtedness or assets of the Trust (other than cash distributions out of current or retained earnings), or shall distribute to all holders of the Common Shares rights or warrants to subscribe for securities (other than those referred to in Section 13.5(7)(f)(ii)), then in each such case the number of Common Shares into which each Series E Convertible Preferred Share shall be convertible shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the number determined by multiplying the number of Common Shares into which such Series E Convertible Preferred Share was convertible immediately prior to the date of such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the current market price (determined as provided in Section 13.5(7)(f)(iv)) of the Common Shares on the record date mentioned below, and of which the denominator shall be such current market price of the Common Shares, less the then fair market value (as determined by the Board of Trustees, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence of such fair market value) of the portion of the securities or assets so distributed or of such subscription rights or warrants applicable to one Common Share. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of the holders of the Common Shares entitled to receive such distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Trust shall distribute rights or warrants (other than those referred to in Section 13.5(7)(f)(ii)) (Rights) pro rata to holders of the Common Shares, the Trust may, in lieu of making any adjustment pursuant to this Section 13.5(7)(f)(iii), make proper provision so that each holder of a Series E Convertible Preferred Share who converts such share after the record date for such distribution and prior to the expiration or redemption of the Rights shall be entitled to receive upon such conversion, in addition to the Common Shares issuable upon such conversion (the Conversion Shares), a number of Rights to be determined as follows: (1) if such conversion occurs on or prior to the date for the distribution to the holders of Rights of separate certificates evidencing such Rights (the Distribution Date), the same number of Rights to which a holder of a number of Common Shares equal to the number of Conversion Shares is entitled at the time of such conversion in accordance with the terms and provisions of and applicable to the Rights; and (2)
64
if such conversion occurs after the Distribution Date, the same number of Rights to which a holder of the number of Common Shares into which a Series E Convertible Preferred Share so converted was convertible immediately prior to the Distribution Date would have been entitled on the Distribution Date in accordance with the terms and provisions of and applicable to the Rights.
(iv) The current market price per share of the Common Shares on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily closing prices for thirty consecutive trading days commencing forty-five trading days before the date in question. The closing price for each day shall be the last reported sales price regular way or, in case no such reported sale takes place on such date, the average of the reported closing bid and asked prices regular way, in either case on the New York Stock Exchange, or if the Common Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on such Exchange, on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Shares are listed or admitted to trading or, if not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the closing sale price of the Common Shares or, in case no reported sale takes place, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, on NASDAQ or any comparable system, or if the Common Shares are not quoted on NASDAQ or any comparable system, the closing sale price or, in case no reported sale takes place, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, as furnished by any two members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. selected from time to time by the Trust for that purpose.
(v) In any case in which this Section 13.5(7) shall require that an adjustment be made immediately following a record date, the Trust may elect to defer (but only until five business days following the mailing of the notice described in Section 13.5(7)(j)) issuing to the holder of any Series E Convertible Preferred Shares converted after such record date the Common Shares and other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust issuable upon such conversion over and above the Common Shares and other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust issuable upon such conversion only on the basis of the conversion rate prior to adjustment; and,
65
in lieu of the shares the issuance of which is so deferred, the Trust shall issue or cause its transfer agents to issue appropriate evidence of the right to receive such shares.
(g) No adjustment in the conversion rate shall be required until cumulative adjustments result in a change of 1% or more of the conversion price as in effect prior to the last adjustment of the conversion rate; provided, however , that any adjustment which by reason of this Section 13.5(7)(g) is not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Section 13.5(7) shall be made to the nearest cent ($.01) or to the nearest one-hundredth (1/100) of a share, as the case may be. No adjustment to the conversion rate shall be made for cash dividends.
(h) In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to Section 13.5(7)(f), the holder of any Series E Convertible Preferred Shares thereafter surrendered for conversion shall become entitled to receive any shares of beneficial interest of the Trust other than Common Shares, thereafter the number of such other shares so receivable upon conversion of any Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Common Shares contained in this Section 13.5(7).
(i) The Trust may make such increases in the conversion rate, in addition to those required by Sections 13.5(7)(f)(i), (ii) and (iii), as is considered to be advisable in order that any event treated for Federal income tax purposes as a distribution of shares or share rights shall not be taxable to the recipients thereof.
(j) Whenever the conversion rate is adjusted, the Trust shall promptly mail to all holders of record of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares a notice of the adjustment and shall cause to be prepared a certificate signed by a principal financial officer of the Trust setting forth the adjusted conversion rate and a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and the computation thereof; such certificate shall forthwith be filed with each transfer agent for the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares.
(k) In the event that:
(1) the Trust takes any action which would require an adjustment in the conversion rate,
(2) the Trust consolidates or merges with, or transfers all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation and shareholders of the Trust must approve the transaction, or
(3) there is a dissolution, winding up or liquidation of the Trust,
a holder of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares may wish to convert some or all of such shares into Common Shares prior to the record date for, or the effective date of, the
66
transaction so that he may receive the rights, warrants, securities or assets which a holder of Common Shares on that date may receive. Therefore, the Trust shall mail to holders of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares a notice stating the proposed record or effective date of the transaction, as the case may be. The Trust shall mail the notice at least 10 days before such date; however, failure to mail such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of any transaction referred to in clauses (1), (2) or (3) of this Section 13.5(7)(k).
(l) If any of the following shall occur, namely: (i) any reclassification or change of outstanding Common Shares issuable upon conversion of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), (ii) any consolidation or merger to which the Trust is a party other than a merger in which the Trust is the surviving entity and which does not result in any reclassification of, or change (other than a change in name, or par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination) in, outstanding Common Shares or (iii) any sale, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Trust as an entirety, then the Trust, or such successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, shall, as a condition precedent to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or lease, provide in its charter document that each Series E Convertible Preferred Share shall be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock or beneficial interest and other securities and property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or lease by a holder of the number of Common Shares deliverable upon conversion of such Series E Convertible Preferred Share immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or lease. Such charter document shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 13.5(7). The foregoing, however, shall not in any way affect the right that a holder of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares may otherwise have, pursuant to clause (2) of the last sentence of Section 13.5(7)(f)(iii), to receive Rights upon conversion of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares. If, in the case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or lease, the shares of stock or beneficial interest or other securities and property (including cash) receivable thereupon by a holder of the Common Shares includes shares of stock or beneficial interest or other securities and property of a corporation other than the successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, in such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or lease, then the charter document of such other corporation shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the holders of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares as the Board of Trustees shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing. The provisions of this Section l3.5(7)(l) shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or leases.
8. Ranking . With regard to rights to receive distributions and amounts payable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust, the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall rank senior to the Common Shares and on a parity with any other preferred shares issued by the Trust, unless the terms of such other preferred shares provide otherwise and, if applicable, the requirements of Section 9 hereof have been complied with. However, the Trust may authorize or increase any class or series of shares of beneficial interest ranking on a parity with or junior to the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares as to
67
distribution rights and the liquidation preference without the vote or consent of the holders of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares.
9. Limitations . In addition to any other rights provided by applicable law, so long as any Series E Convertible Preferred Shares are outstanding, the Trust shall not, without the affirmative vote, or the written consent as provided by law, of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the total number of outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, voting as a class,
(a) authorize, create or issue, or increase the authorized or issued amount of, any class or series of, or rights to subscribe to or acquire, any security convertible into, any class or series of shares of beneficial interest ranking as to distribution rights or the liquidation preference, senior to the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares, or reclassify any shares of beneficial interest into any such shares; or
(b) amend, alter or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, any of the provisions of this Declaration that would change the preferences, rights or powers with respect to the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares so as to affect the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares adversely;
but (except as otherwise required by applicable law) nothing herein contained shall require such a vote or consent (i) in connection with any increase in the total number of authorized Common Shares, or (ii) in connection with the authorization or increase of any class or series of shares of beneficial interest ranking, as to distribution rights and the liquidation preference, on a parity with or junior to the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares; and provided further that no such vote or written consent of the holders of the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares shall be required if, at or prior to the time when the issuance of any such shares ranking senior to the Series E Convertible Preferred Shares is to be made or any such change is to take effect, as the case may be, proper notice has been given and sufficient funds have been irrevocably deposited in trust for the redemption of all the then outstanding Series E Convertible Preferred Shares.
10. No Preemptive Rights . No holder of Series E Convertible Preferred Shares will possess any preemptive rights to subscribe for or acquire any unissued shares of beneficial interest of the Trust (whether now or hereafter authorized) or securities of the Trust convertible into or carrying a right to subscribe to or acquire shares of beneficial interest of the Trust.

among the holders of the Series H Preferred Shares shall be insufficient to pay in full the preferential amount aforesaid and liquidating payments on any other shares of any class or series of Parity Shares, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be distributed among the holders of Series H Preferred Shares and any such other Parity Shares ratably in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such Series H Preferred Shares and any such other Parity Shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full. For the purposes of this Section 4, (i) a consolidation or merger of the Trust with one or more entities, (ii) a sale or transfer or all or substantially all of the Trusts assets, or (iii) a statutory share exchange shall not be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, of the Trust.
(b) Subject to the rights of the holders of shares of any series or class or classes of shares ranking on a parity with or prior to the Series H Preferred Shares upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust, after payment shall have been made in full to the holders of the Series H Preferred Shares, as provided in this Section 4, any other series or class or classes of Junior Shares shall, subject to the respective terms and provisions (if any) applying thereto, be entitled to receive any and all assets remaining to be paid or distributed, and the holders of the Series H Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to share therein.
Section 5. Redemption at the Option of the Trust.
(a) The Trust, at its option, may redeem the Series H Preferred Shares in whole or in part, as set forth herein, subject to the provisions described below.
(b) The Series H Preferred Shares may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the option of the Trust, at any time, only if for 20 Trading Days, within any period of 30 consecutive Trading Days, including the last Trading Day of such period, the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on each of such 20 Trading Days equals or exceeds the Conversion Price in effect on such Trading Day. In order to exercise its redemption option, the Trust must issue a press release announcing the redemption (the Press Release) prior to the opening of business on the second Trading Day after the condition in the preceding sentence has, from time to time, been met. The Press Release shall announce the redemption and set forth the number of Series H Preferred Shares which the Trust intends to redeem. The Call Date shall be selected by the Trust, shall be specified in the notice of redemption and shall be not less than 30 days or more than 60 days after the date on which the Trust issues the Press Release.
(c) Upon redemption of Series H Preferred Shares by the Trust on the date specified in the notice to holders required under subparagraph (e) of this Section 5 (the Call Date), each Series H Preferred Share so redeemed shall be converted into a number of Common Shares equal to the liquidation preference (excluding any accrued and unpaid dividends) of the Series H Preferred Shares being redeemed divided by the Conversion Price as of the opening of business on the Call Date.
Upon any redemption of Series H Preferred Shares, the Trust shall pay any accrued and unpaid dividends in arrears for any Dividend Period ending on or prior to the Call Date. If the Call Date falls after a dividend payment record date and prior to the corresponding Dividend Payment Date, then each holder of Series H Preferred Shares at the close of business on such
73
dividend payment record date shall be entitled to the dividend payable on such shares on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the redemption of such shares before such Dividend Payment Date. Except as provided above, the Trust shall make no payment or allowance for unpaid dividends, whether or not in arrears, on Series H Preferred Shares called for redemption or on the Common Shares issued upon such redemption.
(d) If full cumulative dividends on the Series H Preferred Shares and any other class or series of Parity Shares of the Trust have not been paid or declared and set apart for payment, the Series H Preferred Shares may not be redeemed in part and the Trust may not purchase or acquire Series H Preferred Shares, otherwise than pursuant to a purchase or exchange offer made on the same terms to all holders of Series H Preferred Shares.
(e) If the Trust shall redeem Series H Preferred Shares pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 5, notice of such redemption shall be given not more than four Business Days after the date on which the Trust issues the Press Release to each holder of record of the shares to be redeemed. Such notice shall be provided by first class mail, postage prepaid, at such holders address as the same appears on the share records of the Trust, or by publication in The Wall Street Journal or the New York Times, or if neither such newspaper is then being published, any other daily newspaper of national circulation. If the Trust elects to provide such notice by publication, it shall also promptly mail notice of such redemption to the holders of the Series H Preferred Shares to be redeemed. Neither the failure to mail any notice required by this paragraph (e), nor any defect therein or in the mailing thereof, to any particular holder, shall affect the sufficiency of the notice or the validity of the proceedings for redemption with respect to the other holders. Any notice which was mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given on the date mailed whether or not the holder receives the notice. Each such mailed or published notice shall state, as appropriate: (1) the Call Date; (2) the number of Series H Preferred Shares to be redeemed and, if fewer than all the shares held by such holder are to be redeemed, the number of such shares to be redeemed from such holder; (3) the number of Common Shares to be issued with respect to each Series H Preferred Share; (4) the place or places at which certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for certificates evidencing Common Shares; (5) the then-current Conversion Price; and (6) that dividends on the shares to be redeemed shall cease to accrue on such Call Date except as otherwise provided herein. Notice having been published or mailed as aforesaid, from and after the Call Date (unless the Trust shall fail to make available a number of Common Shares or amount of cash necessary to effect such redemption), (i) except as otherwise provided herein, dividends on the Series H Preferred Shares so called for redemption shall cease to accrue, (ii) said shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding, and (iii) all rights of the holders thereof as holders of Series H Preferred Shares of the Trust shall cease (except the rights to receive the Common Shares and cash payable upon such redemption, without interest thereon, upon surrender and endorsement of their certificates if so required and to receive any dividends payable thereon). The Trusts obligation to provide Common Shares and cash in accordance with the preceding sentence shall be deemed fulfilled if, on or before the Call Date, the Trust shall deposit with a bank or trust company (which may be an affiliate of the Trust) that has an office in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, or in Chicago, Illinois and that has, or is an affiliate of a bank or trust company that has, a capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, Common Shares and any cash necessary for such redemption, in trust, with irrevocable instructions that such Common Shares and cash be applied to the redemption of the Series H Preferred Shares so called for redemption. At the close of business on the Call Date, each holder of Series H Preferred Shares to
74
be redeemed (unless the Trust defaults in the delivery of the Common Shares or cash payable on such Call Date) shall be deemed to be the record holder of the number of Common Shares into which such Series H Preferred Shares are to be redeemed, regardless of whether such holder has surrendered the certificates evidencing the Series H Preferred Shares. No interest shall accrue for the benefit of the holders of Series H Preferred Shares to be redeemed on any cash so set aside by the Trust. Subject to applicable escheat laws, any such cash unclaimed at the end of two years from the Call Date shall revert to the general funds of the Trust, after which reversion the holders of such shares so called for redemption shall look only to the general funds of the Trust for the payment of such cash.
As promptly as practicable after the surrender in accordance with said notice of the certificates for any such shares so redeemed (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Trust shall so require and if the notice shall so state), such shares shall be exchanged for certificates of Common Shares and any cash (without interest thereon) for which such shares have been redeemed. If fewer than all the outstanding Series H Preferred Shares are to be redeemed, shares to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trust from outstanding Series H Preferred Shares not previously called for redemption by lot or pro rata (as nearly as may be) or by any other method determined by the Board of Trustees of the Trust in its sole discretion to be equitable. If fewer than all the Series H Preferred Shares evidenced by any certificate are redeemed, then new certificates evidencing the unredeemed shares shall be issued without cost to the holder thereof.
(f) No fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of Common Shares shall be issued upon redemption of the Series H Preferred Shares. Instead of any fractional interest in a Common Share that would otherwise be deliverable upon the redemption of a Series H Preferred Share, the Trust shall pay to the holder of such share an amount in cash (computed to the nearest cent) based upon the Current Market Price of Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Call Date. If more than one share shall be surrendered for redemption at one time by the same holder, the number of full Common Shares issuable upon redemption thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Series H Preferred Shares so surrendered.
(g) The Trust covenants that any Common Shares issued upon redemption of the Series H Preferred Shares shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Trust shall endeavor to list the Common Shares required to be delivered upon the redemption of the Series H Preferred Shares, prior to such redemption, upon each national securities exchange, if any, upon which the outstanding Common Shares are listed at the time of such delivery.
The Trust shall endeavor to take any action necessary to ensure that any Common Shares issued upon the redemption of Series H Preferred Shares are freely transferable and not subject to any resale restrictions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Act), or any applicable state securities or blue sky laws (other than any Common Shares issued upon redemption of any Series H Preferred Shares which are held by an affiliate (as defined in Rule 144 under the Act) of the Trust).
75
Section 6. Shares To Be Retired .
All Series H Preferred Shares which shall have been issued and reacquired in any manner by the Trust shall be restored to the status of authorized but unissued Preferred Shares, without designation as to series.
Section 7. Conversion .
Holders of Series H Preferred Shares shall have the right to convert all or a portion of such Series H Preferred Shares into Common Shares, as follows:
(a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Section 7, a holder of Series H Preferred Shares shall have the right, at his or her option, at any time to convert such shares into the number of fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares obtained by dividing the aggregate liquidation preference (excluding any accrued and unpaid dividends) of such shares by the Conversion Price (as in effect at the time and on the date provided for in the last paragraph of paragraph (b) of this Section 7) by surrendering such shares to be converted, such surrender to be made in the manner provided in Section 7 paragraph (b); provided, however , that the right to convert shares called for redemption pursuant to Section 5 shall terminate at the close of business on the Call Date fixed for such redemption, unless the Trust shall default in making payment of the Common Shares and any cash payable upon such redemption under Section 5 hereof.
(b) In order to exercise the conversion right, the holder of each Series H Preferred Share to be converted shall surrender the certificate evidencing such share, duly endorsed or assigned to the Trust or in blank, at the office of the Transfer Agent, accompanied by written notice to the Trust that the holder thereof elects to convert such Series H Preferred Shares. Unless the shares issuable on conversion are to be issued in the same name as the name in which such Series H Preferred Share is registered, each share surrendered for conversion shall be accompanied by instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Trust, duly executed by the holder or such holders duly authorized attorney and an amount sufficient to pay any transfer or similar tax (or evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Trust demonstrating that such taxes have been paid).
Holders of Series H Preferred Shares at the close of business on a dividend payment record date shall be entitled to receive the dividend payable on such shares on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion thereof following such dividend payment record date and prior to such Dividend Payment Date. However, Series H Preferred Shares surrendered for conversion during the period between the close of business on any dividend payment record date and the opening of business on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date (except shares converted after the issuance of notice of redemption with respect to a Call Date during such period, such Series H Preferred Shares being entitled to such dividend on the Dividend Payment Date) must be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the dividend payable on such shares on such Dividend Payment Date. A holder of Series H Preferred Shares on a dividend payment record date who (or whose transferee) tenders any such shares for conversion into Common Shares on such Dividend Payment Date will receive the dividend payable by the Trust on such Series H Preferred Shares on such date, and the converting holder need not include payment of the amount of such dividend upon surrender of Series H Preferred Shares for conversion. Except as provided above, the Trust shall make no payment or allowance for unpaid dividends, whether or
76
not in arrears, on converted shares or for dividends on the Common Shares issued upon such conversion.
As promptly as practicable after the surrender of certificates for Series H Preferred Shares as aforesaid, the Trust shall issue and shall deliver at such office to such holder, or on his or her written order, a certificate for the number of full Common Shares issuable upon the conversion of such shares in accordance with provisions of this Section 7, and any fractional interest in respect of a Common Share arising upon such conversion shall be settled as provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 7.
Each conversion shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which the certificates for Series H Preferred Shares shall have been surrendered and such notice (and if applicable, payment of an amount equal to the dividend payable on such shares) received by the Trust as aforesaid, and the person or persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for Common Shares shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the shares represented thereby at such time on such date and such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect at such time on such date unless the share transfer books of the Trust shall be closed on that date, in which event such person or persons shall be deemed to have become such holder or holders of record at the close of business on the next succeeding day on which such share transfer books are open, but such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect on the date on which such shares shall have been surrendered and such notice received by the Trust.
(c) No fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of Common Shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Series H Preferred Shares. Instead of any fractional interest in a Common Share that would otherwise be deliverable upon the conversion of a Series H Preferred Share, the Trust shall pay to the holder of such share an amount in cash based upon the Current Market Price of a Common Share on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of conversion. If more than one share shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same holder, the number of full Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Series H Preferred Shares so surrendered.
(d) The Conversion Price shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:
(i) If the Trust shall after the Issue Date (A) pay a dividend or make a distribution on its shares of beneficial interest of its Common Shares, (B) subdivide its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, (C) combine its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares or (D) issue any shares by reclassification of its Common Shares, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution or at the opening of business on the day following the day on which such subdivision, combination or reclassification becomes effective, as the case may be, shall be adjusted so that the holder of any Series H Preferred Share thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of Common Shares that such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above had such Series H Preferred Share been converted immediately prior to the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution or the effective date in the case of a
77
subdivision, combination or reclassification. An adjustment made pursuant to this subparagraph (i) shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day next following the record date (except as provided in paragraph (h) below) in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day next following the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.
(ii) If the Trust shall issue after the Issue Date rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Shares entitling them (for a period expiring within 45 days after the record date mentioned below) to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at a price per share less than the Fair Market Value per Common Share on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, then the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day next following such record date shall be adjusted to equal the price determined by multiplying (I) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (A) the number of Common Shares outstanding on the close of business on the date fixed for such determination and (B) the number of shares that the aggregate proceeds to the Trust from the exercise of such rights or warrants for Common Shares would purchase at such Fair Market Value, and the denominator of which shall be the sum of (A) the number of Common Shares outstanding on the close of business on the date fixed for such determination and (B) the number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase pursuant to such rights or warrants. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day next following such record date (except as provided in paragraph (h) below). In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders of Common Shares to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at less than such Fair Market Value, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Trust upon issuance and upon exercise of such rights or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Trustees.
(iii) If the Trust shall distribute to all holders of its Common Shares any shares of beneficial interest of the Trust (other than Common Shares) or evidence of its indebtedness or assets (excluding Permitted Common Share Cash Distributions) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those rights and warrants issued to all holders of Common Shares entitling them for a period expiring within 45 days after the record date referred to in subparagraph (ii) above to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares, which rights and warrants are referred to in and treated under subparagraph (ii) above) (any of the foregoing being hereinafter in this subparagraph (iii) called the Securities), then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying (I) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Fair Market Value per Common Share on the record date mentioned below less the then fair market value (as determined by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Trustees, whose determination shall be conclusive), of the portion of the shares or assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or of such rights or warrants applicable to one
78
Common Share, and the denominator of which shall be the Fair Market Value per Common Share on the record date mentioned below. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately at the opening of business on the Business Day next following (except as provided in paragraph (h) below) the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. For the purposes of this clause (iii), the distribution of a Security, which is distributed not only to the holders of the Common Shares on the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to such distribution of such Security, but also is distributed with each Common Share delivered to a Person converting a Series H Preferred Share after such determination date, shall not require an adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this clause (iii); provided that on the date, if any, on which a person converting a Series H Preferred Share would no longer be entitled to receive such Security with a Common Share (other than as a result of the termination of all such Securities), a distribution of such Securities shall be deemed to have occurred and the Conversion Price shall be adjusted as provided in this clause (iii) and such day shall be deemed to be the date fixed for the determination of the shareholders entitled to receive such distribution and the record date within the meaning of the two preceding sentences.
(iv) No adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require a cumulative increase or decrease of at least 1% in such price; provided, however, that any adjustments that by reason of this subparagraph (iv) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment until made; and provided, further, that any adjustment shall be required and made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7 (other than this subparagraph (iv)) not later than such time as may be required in order to preserve the tax-free nature of a distribution to the holders of Common Shares. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 7, the Trust shall not be required to make any adjustment of the Conversion Price for the issuance of any Common Shares pursuant to any plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities of the Trust and the investment of additional optional amounts in Common Shares under such plan. All calculations under this Section 7 shall be made to the nearest cent (with $.005 being rounded upward) or to the nearest one-tenth of a share (with .05 of a share being rounded upward), as the case may be. Anything in this paragraph (d) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trust shall be entitled, to the extent permitted by law, to make such reductions in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by this paragraph (d), as it in its discretion shall determine to be advisable in order than any share dividends, subdivision of shares, reclassification or combination of shares, distribution of rights or warrants to purchase shares or securities, or a distribution of other assets (other than cash dividends) hereafter made by the Trust to its shareholders shall not be taxable.
(e) If the Trust shall be a party to any transaction (including without limitation a merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, self tender offer for all or substantially all Common Shares, sale of all or substantially all of the Trusts assets or recapitalization of the Common Shares and excluding any transaction as to which subparagraph (d)(i) of this Section 7 applies) (each of the foregoing being referred to herein as a Transaction), in each case as a result of which Common Shares shall be converted into the right to receive shares, securities or other property (including cash or any combination thereof), each Series II Preferred Share which is not converted into the right to receive shares, securities or other property in connection with such
79
Transaction shall thereafter be convertible into the kind and amount of shares, securities and other property (including cash or any combination thereof) receivable upon the consummation of such Transaction by a holder of that number of Common Shares into which one Series H Preferred Share was convertible immediately prior to such Transaction, assuming such holder of Common Shares (i) is not a Person with which the Trust consolidated or into which the Trust merged or which merged into the Trust or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (Constituent Person), or an affiliate of a Constituent Person and (ii) failed to exercise his rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of shares, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction ( provided that if the kind or amount of shares, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction is not the same for each Common Share of the Trust held immediately prior to such Transaction by other than a Constituent Person or an affiliate thereof and in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised (Non-Electing Share), then for the purpose of this paragraph (e) the kind and amount of shares, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction by each Non-Electing Share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the non-electing shares). The Trust shall not be a party to any Transaction unless the terms of such Transaction are consistent with the provisions of this paragraph (e), and it shall not consent or agree to the occurrence of any Transaction until the Trust has entered into an agreement with the successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, for the benefit of the holders of the Series H Preferred Shares that will contain provisions enabling the holders of the Series H Preferred Shares that remain outstanding after such Transaction to convert into the consideration received by holders of Common Shares at the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Transaction. The provisions of this paragraph (e) shall similarly apply to successive Transactions.
(f) If:
(i) the Trust shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on the Common Shares (other than Permitted Common Share Cash Distributions); or
(ii) the Trust shall authorize the granting to the holders of the Common Shares of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of any class or any other rights or warrants; or
(iii) there shall be any reclassification of the Common Shares (other than an event to which subparagraph (d)(i) of this Section 7 applies) or any consolidation or merger to which the Trust is a party and for which approval of any shareholders of the Trust is required, or a statutory share exchange, or a self tender offer by the Trust for all or substantially all of its outstanding Common Shares or the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Trust as an entirety; or
(iv) there shall occur the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust;
then the Trust shall cause to be filed with the Transfer Agent and shall cause to be mailed to the holders of Series H Preferred Shares at their addresses as shown on the share records of the Trust, as promptly as possible, but at least 15 days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (A) the date on which a record is to be
80
taken for the purpose of such dividend or other distribution or grant of rights or warrants, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Shares of record to be entitled to such dividend or other distribution or rights or warrants are to be determined or (B) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory share exchange, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding up is expected to become effective, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for securities or other property, if any, deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory share exchange, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding up. Failure to give or receive such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the proceedings described in this Section 7.
(g) Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted as herein provided, the Trust shall promptly file with the Transfer Agent an officers certificate setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment which certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment absent manifest error. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Trust shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Price setting forth the adjusted Conversion Price and the effective date that such adjustment becomes effective and shall mail such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Price to the holder of each Series H Preferred Share at such holders last address as shown on the share records of the Trust.
(h) In any case in which paragraph (d) of this Section 7 provides that an adjustment shall become effective on the day next following the record date for an event, the Trust may defer until the occurrence of such event (A) issuing to the holder of any Series H Preferred Share converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and (B) paying to such holder any amount of cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 7.
(i) There shall be no adjustment of the Conversion Price in case of the issuance of any shares of the Trust in a reorganization, acquisition or other similar transaction except as specifically set forth in this Section 7. If any action or transaction would require adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to more than one paragraph of this Section 7, only one adjustment shall be made and such adjustment shall be the amount of adjustment that has the highest absolute value.
(j) If the Trust shall take any action affecting the Common Shares, other than action described in this Section 7, that in the opinion of the Board of Trustees would materially adversely affect the conversion rights of the holders of the Series H Preferred Shares, the Conversion Price for the Series H Preferred Shares may be adjusted, to the extent permitted by law, in such manner, if any, and at such time, as the Board of Trustees, in its sole discretion, may determine to be equitable in the circumstances.
(k) The Trust covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued Common Shares, for the purpose of effecting conversion of the Series H Preferred Shares, the full number of Common
81
Shares deliverable upon the conversion of all outstanding Series H Preferred Shares not theretofore converted. For purposes of this paragraph (k), the number of Common Shares that shall be deliverable upon the conversion of all outstanding Series H Preferred Shares shall be computed as if at the time of computation all such outstanding shares were held by a single holder.
The Trust covenants that any Common Shares issued upon conversion of the Series H Preferred Shares shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
The Trust shall endeavor to list the Common Shares required to be delivered upon conversion of the Series H Preferred Shares, prior to such delivery, upon each national securities exchange, if any, upon which the outstanding Common Shares are listed at the time of such delivery.
Prior to the delivery of any securities that the Trust shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Series H Preferred Shares, the Trust shall endeavor to comply with all federal and state laws and regulations thereunder requiring the registration of such securities with, or any approval of or consent to the delivery thereof by, any governmental authority.
(l) The Trust will pay any and all documentary stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes payable in respect of the issue or delivery of Common Shares or other securities or property on conversion of the Series H Preferred Shares pursuant hereto; provided, however , that the Trust shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of Common Shares or other securities or property in a name other than that of the holder of the Series H Preferred Shares to be converted, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Trust the amount of any such tax or established, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trust, that such tax has been paid.
Section 8. Ranking . Any class or series of shares of the Trust shall be deemed to rank:
(a) Prior to the Series H Preferred Shares, as to the payment of dividends and as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, if the holders of such class or series shall be entitled to the receipt of dividends or of amounts distributable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case may be, in preference or priority to the holders of Series H Preferred Shares;
(b) On a parity with the Series H Preferred Shares, as to the payment of dividends and as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, whether or not the dividend rates dividend payment dates or redemption or liquidation prices per share thereof be different from those of the Series H Preferred Shares, if the holders of such class of shares or series and the Series H Preferred Shares shall be entitled to the receipt of dividends and of amounts distributable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up in proportion to their respective amounts of accrued and unpaid dividends per share or liquidation preferences, without preference or priority one over the other (Parity Shares), which Parity Shares include, as of the Issue Date, the Trusts Series A Preferred Shares, Series B Preferred Shares, Series C Preferred Shares, Series D Preferred Shares, Series E Preferred Shares, Series F Preferred Shares, Series G Preferred Shares, Series I Preferred Shares, Series J Preferred Shares, Series K Preferred Shares and Series L Preferred Shares; and
82
(c) Junior to the Series H Preferred Shares, as to the payment of dividends or as to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, if such shares or series shall be Common Shares or if the holders of Series H Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receipt of dividends or of amounts distributable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case may be, in preference or priority to the holders of such shares or series.
Section 9. Voting . If and whenever six quarterly dividends (whether or not consecutive) payable on the Series H Preferred Shares or any series or class of Parity Shares shall be in arrears (which shall, with respect to any such quarterly dividend, mean that any such dividend has not been paid in full), whether or not earned or declared, the number of trustees then constituting the Board of Trustees shall be increased by two and the holders of Series H Preferred Shares, together with the holders of every other series of Parity Shares (any such other series, the Voting Preferred Shares,) voting as a single class regardless of series, shall be entitled to elect the two additional trustees to serve on the Board of Trustees at any annual meeting of shareholders or special meeting held in place thereof, or at a special meeting of the holders of the Series H Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares called as hereinafter provided. Whenever all arrears in dividends on the Series H Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares then outstanding shall have been paid and dividends thereon for the current quarterly dividend period shall have been paid or declared and set apart for payment, then the right of the holders of the Series H Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares to elect such additional two trustees shall cease (but subject always to the same provision for the vesting of such voting rights in the case of any similar future arrearages in six quarterly dividends), and the terms of office of all persons elected as trustees by the holders of the Series H Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares shall forthwith terminate and the number of the Board of Trustees shall be reduced accordingly. At any time after such voting power shall have been so vested in the holders of Series H Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares, the secretary of the Trust may, and upon the written request of any holder of Series H Preferred Shares (addressed to the secretary at the principal office of the Trust) shall, call a special meeting of the holders of the Series H Preferred Shares and of the Voting Preferred Shares for the election of the two trustees to be elected by them as herein provided, such call to be made by notice similar to that provided in the Bylaws of the Trust for a special meeting of the shareholders or as required by law. If any such special meeting required to be called as above provided shall not be called by the secretary within 20 days after receipt of any such request, then any holder of Series H Preferred Shares may call such meeting, upon the notice above provided, and for that purpose shall have access to the share books of the Trust. The trustees elected at any such special meeting shall hold office until the next annual meeting of the shareholders or special meeting held in lieu thereof if such office shall not have previously terminated as above provided. If any vacancy shall occur among the trustees elected by the holders of the Series H Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares, a successor shall be elected by the Board of Trustees, upon the nomination of the then-remaining trustee elected by the holders of the Series H Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares or the successor of such remaining trustee, to serve until the next annual meeting of the shareholders or special meeting held in place thereof if such office shall not have previously terminated as provided above.
So long as any Series H Preferred Shares are outstanding, in addition to any other vote or consent of shareholders required by law or by the Declaration of Trust, as amended, the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the Series H

On and after December 10, 2026, the Trust, at its option, may redeem the Series K Preferred Shares in whole or in part, as set forth herein, subject to the provisions described below.
(b) No Series K Preferred Share may be redeemed except from proceeds from the sale of other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust, including but not limited to Common Shares, Preferred Shares, depository shares, interests, participations or other ownership interests (however designated) and any rights (other than debt securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities) or options to purchase any of the foregoing. In order to exercise its redemption option, the Trust must issue a press release announcing the redemption (the Press Release). The Press Release shall announce the redemption and set forth the number of Series K Preferred Shares which the Trust intends to redeem. The Call Date shall be selected by the Trust, shall be specified in the notice of redemption and shall be not less than 30 days or more than 60 days after the date on which the Trust issues the Press Release.
(c) Upon redemption of Series K Preferred Shares by the Trust on the date specified in the notice to holders required under subparagraph (e) of this Section 5 (the Call Date), for each Series K Preferred Share so redeemed, the Trust shall pay in cash the liquidation preference, including all dividends (whether or not earned or declared) accrued and unpaid thereon to the Call Date, except that if the Call Date falls after a dividend payment record date and prior to the corresponding Dividend Payment Date, then each holder of Series K Preferred Shares at the close of business on such dividend payment record date shall be entitled to the dividend payable on such shares on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the redemption of such shares before such Dividend Payment Date. Except as provided above, the Trust shall make no payment or allowance for unpaid dividends, whether or not in arrears, on Series K Preferred Shares called for redemption, after the date of redemption.
(d) If full cumulative dividends on the Series K Preferred Shares and any other class or series of Parity Shares of the Trust have not been paid or declared and set apart for payment, the Series K Preferred Shares may not be redeemed in part and the Trust may not purchase or acquire Series K Preferred Shares, otherwise than pursuant to a purchase or exchange offer made on the same terms to all holders of Series K Preferred Shares.
(e) If the Trust shall redeem Series K Preferred Shares pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 5, notice of such redemption shall be given not more than four Business Days after the date on which the Trust issues the Press Release to each holder of record of the shares to be redeemed. Such notice shall be provided by first class mail, postage prepaid, at such holders
88
address as the same appears on the share records of the Trust, or by publication in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of New York once per week for at least two successive weeks. If the Trust elects to provide such notice by publication, it shall also promptly mail notice of such redemption to the holders of the Series K Preferred Shares to be redeemed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Call Date. Neither the failure to mail any notice required by this paragraph (e), nor any defect therein or in the mailing thereof, to any particular holder, shall affect the sufficiency of the notice or the validity of the proceedings for redemption with respect to the other holders. Any notice which was mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given on the date mailed whether or not the holder receives the notice. Each such mailed or published notice shall state, as appropriate: (1) the Call Date; (2) the number of Series K Preferred Shares to be redeemed and, if fewer than all the shares held by such holder are to be redeemed, the number of such shares to be redeemed for such holder; (3) the redemption price with respect to each Series K Preferred Share, including dividends accrued through the Call Date; (4) the place or places at which certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment; and (5) that dividends on the shares to be redeemed shall cease to accrue on such Call Date except as otherwise provided herein. Notice having been published or mailed as aforesaid, from and after the Call Date (unless the Trust shall fail to make available the amount of cash necessary to effect such redemption), (i) except as otherwise provided herein, dividends on the Series K Preferred Shares so called for redemption shall cease to accrue, (ii) said shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding, and (iii) all rights of the holders thereof as holders of Series K Preferred Shares of the Trust shall cease (except the rights to receive the cash payable upon such redemption, without interest thereon, upon surrender and endorsement of their certificates if so required and to receive any dividends payable thereon). The Trusts obligation to provide cash in accordance with the preceding sentence shall be deemed fulfilled if, on or before the Call Date, the Trust shall deposit with a bank or trust company (which may be an affiliate of the Trust) that has an office in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, or in Chicago, Illinois and that has, or is an affiliate of a bank or trust company that has, a capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, cash necessary for such redemption, in trust, with irrevocable instructions that cash be applied to the redemption of the Series K Preferred Shares so called for redemption. At the close of business on the Call Date, each holder of Series K Preferred Shares to be redeemed (unless the Trust defaults in the delivery of the cash payable on such Call Date) shall no longer be deemed to be the record holder of the number of such Series K Preferred Shares to be redeemed, regardless of whether such holder has surrendered the certificates evidencing the Series K Preferred Shares. The Trust shall be entitled to receive from such bank or trust company the interest or other earnings, if any, earned on any money so deposited in trust, and the holders of any shares redeemed shall have no claim to such interest or other earnings. No interest shall accrue for the benefit of the holders of Series K Preferred Shares to be redeemed on the cash so set aside by the Trust. Subject to applicable escheat laws, any such cash unclaimed at the end of two years from the Call Date shall revert to the general funds of the Trust, after which reversion the holders of such shares so called for redemption shall look only to the general funds of the Trust for the payment of such cash.
As promptly as practicable after the surrender in accordance with said notice of the certificates for any such shares so redeemed (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Trust shall so require and if the notice shall so state), the Trust shall pay the cash (without interest thereon) representing the redemption price for the redeemed shares. If fewer than all the outstanding Series K Preferred Shares are to be redeemed, shares to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trust from outstanding Series K Preferred Shares not previously called for redemption by lot
89
or pro rata (as nearly as may be ) or by any other method determined by the Trust in its sole discretion to be equitable. If fewer than all the Series K Preferred Shares evidenced by any certificate are redeemed, then new certificates evidencing the unredeemed shares shall be issued without cost to the holder thereof.
Section 6. Shares To Be Retired .
All Series K Preferred Shares which shall have been issued and reacquired in any manner by the Trust shall be restored to the status of authorized but unissued Preferred Shares, without designation as to series. The Trust may also reclassify any unissued Series K Preferred Shares, and such shares shall then be restored to the status of authorized but unissued Preferred Shares, without designation as to series.
Section 7. Conversion .
Holders of Series K Preferred Shares shall not have the right to convert all or a portion of such shares into Common Shares or any other class of shares of the Trust.
Section 8. Ranking . Any class or series of shares of the Trust shall be deemed to rank:
(a) prior to the Series K Preferred Shares, as to the payment of dividends and as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, if the holders of such class or series shall be entitled to the receipt of dividends or of amounts distributable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case may be, in preference or priority to the holders of Series K Preferred Shares;
(b) on a parity with the Series K Preferred Shares, as to the payment of dividends and as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, whether or not the dividend rates, dividend payment dates or redemption or liquidation prices per share thereof be different from those of the Series K preferred Shares, if the holders of such class of shares or series and the Series K Preferred Shares shall be entitled to the receipt of dividends and of amounts distributable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up in proportion to their respective amounts of accrued and unpaid dividends per share or liquidation preferences, without preference or priority one over the other (Parity Shares), which Parity Shares include, as of the Issue Date, the Trusts Series A Preferred Shares, Series B Preferred Shares, Series C Preferred Shares, Series D Preferred Shares, Series E Preferred Shares, Series F Preferred Shares, Series G Preferred Shares, Series H Preferred Shares, Series I Preferred Shares, Series J Preferred Shares and Series L Preferred Shares; and
(c) junior to the Series K Preferred Shares, as to the payment of dividends or as to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, if such shares or series shall be Common Shares or if the holders of Series K Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receipt of dividends or of amounts distributable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case may be, in preference or priority to the holders of such shares or series.

Section 9. Voting . If and whenever six quarterly dividends (whether or not consecutive) payable on the Series K Preferred Shares or any series or class of Parity Shares shall be in arrears (which shall, with respect to any such quarterly dividend, mean that any such dividend has not been paid in full), whether or not earned or declared, the number of trustees then constituting the Board of Trustees shall be increased by two (if not already increased by reason of a similar arrearage with respect to any Parity Shares) and the holders of Series K Preferred Shares, together with the holders of shares of every other series of Parity Shares (any such other series, the Voting Preferred Shares), voting as a single class regardless of series, shall be entitled to elect the two additional trustees to serve on the Board of Trustees at any annual meeting of shareholders or special meeting held in place thereof, or at a special meeting of the holders of the Series K Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares called as hereinafter provided. Whenever all arrears in dividends on the Series K Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares then outstanding shall have been paid and dividends thereon for the current quarterly dividend period shall have been paid or declared and set apart for payment, then the right of the holders of the Series K Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares to elect such additional two trustees shall cease (but subject always to the same provision for the vesting of such voting rights in the case of any similar future arrearages in six quarterly dividends), and the terms of office of all persons elected as trustees by the holders of the Series K Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares shall forthwith terminate and the number of the Board of Trustees shall be reduced accordingly. At any time after such voting power shall have been so vested in the holders of Series K Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares, the secretary of the Trust may, and upon the written request of any holder of Series K Preferred Shares (addressed to the secretary at the principal office of the Trust) shall, call a special meeting of the holders of the Series K Preferred Shares and of the Voting Preferred Shares for the election of the two trustees to be elected by them as herein provided, such call to be made by notice similar to that provided in the Bylaws of the Trust for a special meeting of the shareholders or as required by law. If any such special meeting required to be called as above provided shall not be called by the secretary within 20 days after receipt of any such request, then any holder of Series K Preferred Shares may call such meeting, upon the notice above provided, and for that purpose shall have access to the share books of the Trust. The trustees elected at any such special meeting shall hold office until the next annual meeting of the shareholders or special meeting held in lieu thereof if such office shall not have previously terminated as above provided. If any vacancy shall occur among the trustees elected by the holders of the Series K Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares, a successor shall be elected by the Board of Trustees, upon the nomination of the then-remaining trustee elected by the holders of the Series K Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares or the successor of such remaining trustee, to serve until the next annual meeting of the shareholders or special meeting held in place thereof if such office shall not have previously terminated as provided above.
So long as any Series K Preferred Shares are outstanding, in addition to any other vote or consent of shareholders required by law or by the Declaration of Trust, as amended, the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the Series K Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares, at the time outstanding, acting as a single class regardless of series, given in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or by vote at any meeting called for the purpose, shall be necessary for effecting or validating:
(a) Any amendment, alteration or repeal of any of the provisions of the Declaration of Trust that materially adversely affects the voting powers, rights or preferences of the
91
holders of the Series K Preferred Shares or the Voting Preferred Shares; provided, however, that the amendment of the provisions of the Declaration of Trust so as to authorize or create, or to increase the authorized amount of, any Junior Shares or any shares of any class ranking on a parity with the Series K Preferred Shares or the Voting Preferred Shares shall not be deemed to materially adversely affect the voting powers, rights or preferences of the holders of Series K Preferred Shares, and provided further, that if any such amendment, alteration or repeal would materially adversely affect any voting powers, rights or preferences of the Series K Preferred Shares or another series of Voting Preferred Shares that are not enjoyed by some or all of the other series which otherwise would be entitled to vote in accordance herewith, the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of all series similarly affected, similarly given, shall be required in lieu of the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the Series K Preferred Shares and the Voting Preferred Shares which otherwise would be entitled to vote in accordance herewith; or
(b) The authorization or creation of, or the increase in the authorized amount of, any shares of any class or any security convertible into shares of any class ranking prior to the Series K Preferred Shares in the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust or in the payment of dividends; provided, however, that no such vote of the holders of Series K Preferred Shares shall be required if, at or prior to the time when such amendment, alteration or repeal is to take effect, or when the issuance of any such prior shares or convertible security is to be made, as the case may be, provision is made for the redemption of all Series K Preferred Shares at the time outstanding.
For purposes of the foregoing provisions of this Section 9, each Series K Preferred Share shall have one (1) vote per share, except that when any other series of preferred shares shall have the right to vote with the Series K Preferred Shares as a single class on any matter, then the Series K Preferred Shares and such other series shall have with respect to such matters one (1) vote per $25.00 of stated liquidation preference. Except as otherwise required by applicable law or as set forth herein, the Series K Preferred Shares shall not have any voting rights and powers other than as set forth herein, and the consent of the holders thereof shall not be required for the taking of any trust action.

In respect of rights to receive distributions and to participate in distributions or payments in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust, the Series M Preferred Shares shall rank pari passu with any other Preferred Shares of the Trust, and will rank senior to the Common Shares and any other class or series of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking, as to distributions and upon liquidation, junior (collectively, the Junior Shares) to the Preferred Shares.
(3) Distributions . The holders of the then outstanding Series M Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Trustees out of any funds legally available therefor, cumulative distributions at the rate of $4.00 per share per year, payable in equal amounts of $1.00 per share quarterly in cash on the fifteenth day, or if not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, of January, April, July and October in each year, beginning October 15, 1999 (each such day being hereinafter called a Quarterly Distribution Date and each period ending on a Quarterly Distribution Date being hereinafter called a Distribution Period), to shareholders of record at the close of business on such date as shall be fixed by the Board of Trustees at the time of declaration of the distribution (the Record Date), which shall not be less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the Quarterly Distribution Date.

In determining whether a distribution (other than upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation), by dividend, redemption or other acquisition of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust or otherwise, is permitted under Maryland law, amounts that would be needed, if the Trust
94
were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders of Series M Preferred Shares will not be added to the Trusts total liabilities.
Except as provided in these terms of the Series M Preferred Shares, the Series M Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to participate in the earnings or assets of the Trust.
(4) Liquidation Rights .

(c) If, upon any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the Trust, the amounts payable with respect to the preference value of the Series M Preferred Shares and any other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking as to any such distribution on a parity with the Series M Preferred Shares are not paid in full, the holders of the Series M Preferred Shares and of such other shares will share ratably in any such distribution of assets of the Trust in proportion to the full respective preference amounts to which they are entitled.
(d) Neither the sale of all or substantially all the property or business of the Trust, nor the merger or consolidation of the Trust into or with any other entity or the merger or consolidation of any other entity into or with the Trust, shall be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, for the purposes of this paragraph B.

(b) Procedures for Redemption .
(i) Notice of any redemption will be mailed by the Trust, postage prepaid, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Series M Redemption Date, addressed to the holders of record of the Series M Preferred Shares to be redeemed at their addresses as they appear on the share transfer records of the Trust. No failure to give such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Series M Preferred Shares except as to the holder to whom the Trust has failed to give notice or except as to the holder to whom notice was defective. In addition to any information required by law or by the applicable rules of any exchange upon which Series M Preferred Shares may be listed or admitted to trading, such notice shall state: (a) the Series M Redemption Date; (b) the Series M Redemption Price; (c) the number of Series M Preferred Shares to be redeemed; (d) the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the Series M Redemption Price; and (e) that distributions on the shares to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on the Series M Redemption Date.
(ii) If notice has been mailed in accordance with subparagraph (5)(b)(i) above and provided that on or before the Series M Redemption Date specified in such notice all funds necessary for such redemption shall have been irrevocably set aside by the Trust, separate and apart from its other funds in trust for the pro rata benefit of the holders of the Series M Preferred Shares so called for redemption, so as to be, and to continue to be available therefor, then, from and after the Series M Redemption Date, distributions on the Series M Preferred Shares so called for redemption shall cease to accumulate, and said shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and shall not have the status of Series M Preferred Shares and all rights of the holders thereof as shareholders of the Trust (except the right to receive the Series M Redemption Price) shall cease. Upon surrender, in accordance with said notice, of the certificates for any Series M Preferred Shares so redeemed (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Trust shall so require and the notice shall so state), such Series M Preferred Shares shall be redeemed by the Trust at the Series M Redemption Price. In case fewer than all the Series M Preferred Shares evidenced by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate or certificates shall be issued evidencing the unredeemed Series M Preferred Shares without cost to the holder thereof.
(iii) Any funds deposited with a bank or trust company for the purpose of redeeming Series M Preferred Shares shall be irrevocable except that:
(A) the Trust shall be entitled to receive from such bank or trust company the interest or other earnings, if any,
96
earned on any money so deposited in trust, and the holders of any shares redeemed shall have no claim to such interest or other earnings; and
(B) any balance of monies so deposited by the Trust and unclaimed by the holders of the Series M Preferred Shares entitled thereto at the expiration of two years from the applicable Series M Redemption Date shall be repaid, together with any interest or other earnings earned thereon, to the Trust, and after any such repayment, the holders of the shares entitled to the funds so repaid to the Trust shall look only to the Trust for payment without interest or other earnings.
(iv) No Series M Preferred Shares may be redeemed except with funds legally available for the payment of the Series M Redemption Price.
(v) Unless full accumulated distributions on all Series M Preferred Shares shall have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for payment for all past Distribution Periods and the then current Distribution Period, no Series M Preferred Shares shall be redeemed (unless all outstanding Series M Preferred Shares are simultaneously redeemed) or purchased or otherwise acquired directly or indirectly (except by conversion into or exchange for shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking junior to the Series M Preferred Shares as to distributions and upon liquidation); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent the redemption of Series M Preferred Shares pursuant to Article VII of the Declaration of Trust or the purchase or acquisition of Series M Preferred Shares pursuant to a purchase or exchange offer made on the same terms to holders of all outstanding Series M Preferred Shares.
(vi) If the Series M Redemption Date is after a Record Date and before the related Quarterly Distribution Date, the distribution payable on such Quarterly Distribution Date shall be paid to the holder in whose name the Series M Preferred Shares to be redeemed are registered at the close of business on such Record Date notwithstanding the redemption thereof between such Record Date and the related Quarterly Distribution Date or the Trusts default in the payment of the distribution due.
(vii) In case of redemption of less than all Series M Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, the Series M Preferred Shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata from the holders of record of such shares in proportion to the number of Series M Preferred Shares held by such holders (with adjustments to avoid redemption of fractional shares) or by any other equitable method determined by the Trust.
97
(6) Voting Rights . Except as provided in these terms of the Series M Preferred Shares, the holders of the Series M Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to vote at any meeting of the shareholders for election of trustees or for any other purposes or otherwise to participate in any action taken by the Trust or the shareholders thereof, or to receive notice (except for such notice as required by law) of any meeting of shareholders.
(a) In any matter in which the Series M Preferred Shares are entitled to vote (as expressly provided herein), including any action by written consent, each Series M Preferred Share shall be entitled to 10 votes, each of which 10 votes may be directed separately by the holder thereof (or by any proxy or proxies of such holder). With respect to each Series M Preferred Share, the holder thereof may designate up to 10 proxies, with each such proxy having the right to vote a whole number of votes (totaling 10 votes per Series M Preferred Share).
(b) Whenever distributions on any Series M Preferred Shares shall be in arrears for six or more quarterly periods, the holders of such Series M Preferred Shares, voting separately as a class with all other series of Preferred Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, will be entitled to vote for the election of two additional Trustees of the Trust at a special meeting called by the holders of record of at least ten percent (10%) of any series of Preferred Shares so in arrears (unless such request is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of the shareholders) or at the next annual meeting of shareholders, and at each subsequent annual meeting until all distributions accumulated on such Series M Preferred Shares for the past distribution periods and the then current distribution period shall have been fully paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment. In such case, the entire Board of Trustees of the Trust will increase by two Trustees.
(c) So long as any Series M Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Trust will not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Series M Preferred Shares outstanding at the time, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting (such series voting separately as a class), (i) authorize or create, or increase the authorized or issued amount of, any class or series of shares of beneficial interest ranking prior to the Series M Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up or reclassify any authorized shares of beneficial interest of the Trust into such shares, or create, authorize or issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any such shares; or (ii) amend, alter or repeal the provisions of the Trusts Declaration of Trust or the terms of the Series M Preferred Shares whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise (an Event), so as to materially
98
and adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Series M Preferred Shares or the holders thereof; provided, however, with respect to the occurrence of any Events set forth in (ii) above, so long as the Series M Preferred Shares remain outstanding with the terms thereof materially unchanged, taking into account that upon the occurrence of an Event, the Trust may not be the surviving entity or the Series M Preferred Shares that remain outstanding may bear a new title, designation and/or be issued by a different issuer, the occurrence of any such Event shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of holders of Series M Preferred Shares and provided further that (x) any increase in the amount of the authorized Preferred Shares or the creation or issuance of any other Series M Preferred Shares, or (y) any increase in the amount of authorized Series M Preferred Shares or any other Preferred Shares, in each case ranking on a parity with or junior to the Series M Preferred Shares with respect to payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers.
The foregoing voting provisions will not apply if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding Series M Preferred Shares shall have been redeemed or called for redemption and sufficient funds shall have been deposited in trust to effect such redemption.

A series of Preferred Shares, consisting of 1,320,000 Preferred Shares designated as 8.50% Series M-1 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares of Beneficial Interest, $.01 par value per share (liquidation preference $50.00 per share) (the Series M-1 Preferred Shares), is hereby established.
(2) Ranking . In respect of rights to receive distributions and to participate in distributions or payments in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust, the Series M-1 Preferred Shares shall rank pari passu with any other Preferred Shares of the Trust, and will rank senior to the Common Shares and any other class or series of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking, as to distributions and upon liquidation, junior (collectively, the Junior Shares) to the Preferred Shares.
(3) Distributions . The holders of the then outstanding Series M-1 Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the Board of Trustees and declared by the Trust out of any funds legally available therefor, cumulative distributions at the rate of $4.25 per share per year, payable in equal amounts of $1.0625 per share quarterly in arrears in cash on the fifteenth day, or if not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, of January, April, July and October in each year (each such day being hereinafter called a Quarterly Distribution Date and each period ending on a Quarterly Distribution Date being hereinafter called a Distribution Period), beginning on the first Quarterly Distribution Date following the issuance of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares, to shareholders of record at the close of business on such date as shall be fixed by the Board of Trustees at the time of declaration of the distribution (the Record Date), which shall not be less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the Quarterly Distribution Date.

Distributions on each Series M-1 Preferred Share shall accrue and be cumulative from and including the date of original issue thereof, whether or not (i) distributions on such shares are earned or declared or (ii) on any Quarterly Distribution Date there shall be funds legally available for the payment of distributions. Distributions paid on the Series M-1 Preferred Shares in an amount less than the total amount of such distributions at the
102
time accrued and payable on such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a per share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding.
The amount of any distributions accrued on any Series M-1 Preferred Shares at any Quarterly Distribution Date shall be the amount of any unpaid distributions accumulated thereon, to and including such Quarterly Distribution Date, whether or not earned or declared, and the amount of distributions accrued on any Series M-1 Preferred Shares at any date other than a Quarterly Distribution Date shall be equal to the sum of the amount of any unpaid distributions accumulated thereon, to and including the last preceding Quarterly Distribution Date, whether or not earned or declared, plus an amount calculated on the basis of the annual distribution rate of $4.25 for the period after such last preceding Quarterly Distribution Date to and including the date as of which the calculation is made based on a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
In determining whether a distribution (other than upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation), by dividend, redemption or other acquisition of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust or otherwise, is permitted under Maryland law, amounts that would be needed, if the Trust were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders of Series M-1 Preferred Shares will not be added to the Trusts total liabilities.
Except as provided in these terms of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares, the Series M-1 Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to participate in the earnings or assets of the Trust.
(4) Liquidation Rights .
(a) Upon the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Trust, the holders of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares then outstanding shall be entitled to receive and to be paid out of the assets of the Trust available for distribution to its shareholders, before any payment or distribution shall be made on any Junior Shares, the amount of $50.00 per Series M-1 Preferred Share, plus accrued and unpaid distributions thereon.
(b) After the payment to the holders of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares of the full preferential amounts provided for in this paragraph B, the holders of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares as such shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Trust.
(c) If, upon any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the Trust, the amounts payable with respect to the preference value of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares and any other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking as to any such distribution on parity with the Series M-1 Preferred Shares are not paid in full, the holders of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares and of such other shares will share ratably in any such distribution of assets of the Trust in proportion to the full respective preference amounts to which they are entitled.
103
(d) Neither the sale of all or substantially all the property or business of the Trust, nor the merger or consolidation of the Trust into or with any other entity or the merger or consolidation of any other entity into or with the Trust, shall be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, for the purposes of this paragraph B.
(5) Redemption .
(a) Optional Redemption . On and after March 3, 2005, the Trust may, at its option, redeem at any time all or, from time to time, part of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares at a price per share (the Series M-1 Redemption Price), payable in cash, of $50.00 per Series M-1 Preferred Share, together with all accrued and unpaid distributions to and including the date fixed for redemption (the Series M-1 Redemption Date).
(b) Procedures for Redemption .
(i) Notice of any redemption will be mailed by the Trust, postage prepaid, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Series M-1 Redemption Date, addressed to the holders of record of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares to be redeemed at their addresses as they appear on the share transfer records of the Trust. No failure to give such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Series M-1 Preferred Shares except as to the holder to whom the Trust has failed to give notice or except as to the holder to whom notice was defective. In addition to any information required by law or by the applicable rules of any exchange upon which Series M-1 Preferred Shares may be listed or admitted to trading, such notice shall state: (a) the Series M-1 Redemption Date; (b) the Series M-1 Redemption Price; (c) the number of Series M-1 Preferred Shares to be redeemed; (d) the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the Series M-1 Redemption Price; and (e) that distributions on the shares to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on the Series M-1 Redemption Date.
(ii) If notice has been mailed in accordance with subparagraph (5)(b)(i) above and provided that on or before the Series M-1 Redemption Date specified in such notice all funds necessary for such redemption shall have been irrevocably set aside by the Trust, separate and apart from its other funds in trust for the pro rata benefit of the holders of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares so called for redemption, so as to be, and to continue to be available therefor, then, from and after the Series M-1 Redemption Date, distributions on the Series M-1 Preferred Shares so called for redemption shall cease to accumulate, and said shares shall no longer be deemed to be
104
outstanding and shall not have the status of Series M-1 Preferred Shares and all rights of the holders thereof as shareholders of the Trust (except the right to receive the Series M-1 Redemption Price) shall cease. Upon surrender, in accordance with said notice, of the certificates for any Series M-1 Preferred Shares so redeemed (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Trust shall so require and the notice shall so state), such Series M-1 Preferred Shares shall be redeemed by the Trust at the Series M-1 Redemption Price. In case fewer than all the Series M-1 Preferred Shares evidenced by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate or certificates shall be issued evidencing the unredeemed Series M-1 Preferred Shares without cost to the holder thereof.
(iii) Any funds deposited with a bank or trust company for the purpose of redeeming Series M-1 Preferred Shares shall be irrevocable except that:
(A) the Trust shall be entitled to receive from such bank or trust company the interest or other earnings, if any, earned on any money so deposited in trust, and the holders of any shares redeemed shall have no claim to such interest or other earnings; and
(B) any balance of monies so deposited by the Trust and unclaimed by the holders of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares entitled thereto at the expiration of two years from the applicable Series M-1 Redemption Date shall be repaid, together with any interest or other earnings earned thereon, to the Trust, and after any such repayment, the holders of the shares entitled to the funds so repaid to the Trust shall look only to the Trust for payment without interest or other earnings.
(iv) No Series M-1 Preferred Shares may be redeemed except with funds legally available for the payment of the Series M-1 Redemption Price.
(v) Unless full accumulated distributions on all Series M-1 Preferred Shares shall have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for payment for all past Distribution Periods and the then current Distribution Period, no Series M-1 Preferred Shares shall be redeemed (unless all outstanding Series M-1 Preferred Shares are simultaneously redeemed) or purchased or otherwise acquired directly or indirectly (except by conversion into or exchange for shares of beneficial interest of the Trust
105
ranking junior to the Series M-1 Preferred Shares as to distributions and upon liquidation); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent the redemption of Series M-1 Preferred Shares pursuant to Article VII of the Declaration of Trust or the purchase or acquisition of Series M-1 Preferred Shares pursuant to a purchase or exchange offer made on the same terms to holders of all outstanding Series M-1 Preferred Shares.
(vi) If the Series M-1 Redemption Date is after a Record Date and before the related Quarterly Distribution Date, the distribution payable on such Quarterly Distribution Date shall be paid to the holder in whose name the Series M-1 Preferred Shares to be redeemed are registered at the close of business on such Record Date notwithstanding the redemption thereof between such Record Date and the related Quarterly Distribution Date or the Trusts default in the payment of the distribution due.
(vii) In case of redemption of less than all Series M-1 Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, the Series M-1 Preferred Shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata from the holders of record of such shares in proportion to the number of Series M-1 Preferred Shares held by such holders (with adjustments to avoid redemption of fractional shares) or by any other equitable method determined by the Trust.
(6) Voting Rights . Except as provided in these terms of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares, the holders of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to vote at any meeting of the shareholders for election of trustees or for any other purposes or otherwise to participate in any action taken by the Trust or the shareholders thereof, or to receive notice (except for such notice as required by law) of any meeting of shareholders.
(a) In any matter in which the Series M-1 Preferred Shares are entitled to vote (as expressly provided herein), including any action by written consent, each Series M-1 Preferred Share shall be entitled to 10 votes, each of which 10 votes may be directed separately by the holder thereof (or by any proxy or proxies of such holder). With respect to each Series M-1 Preferred Share, the holder thereof may designate up to 10 proxies, with each such proxy having the right to vote a whole number of votes (totaling 10 votes per Series M-1 Preferred Share).
(b) Whenever distributions on any Series M-1 Preferred Shares shall be in arrears for six or more quarterly periods, the Board of Trustees of the Trust shall be increased by the two trustees and the holders of such Series M-1 Preferred Shares, voting separately as a class with all other series of Preferred Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, will be entitled to vote for the election of two additional Trustees of the Trust at a special meeting called by the holders of record of at least ten percent (10%) of any series of Preferred Shares so in
106
arrears (unless such request is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of the shareholders) or at the next annual meeting of shareholders, and at each subsequent annual meeting until all distributions accumulated on such Series M-1 Preferred Shares for the past distribution periods and the then current distribution period shall have been fully paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment.
(c) So long as any Series M-1 Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Trust will not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares outstanding at the time, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting (such series voting separately as a class), (i) authorize or create, or increase the authorized or issued amount of, any class or series of shares of beneficial interest ranking senior to the Series M-1 Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up or reclassify any authorized shares of beneficial interest of the Trust into such shares, or create, authorize or issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any such shares; or (ii) amend, alter or repeal the provisions of the Trusts Declaration of Trust or the terms of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise (an Event), so as to materially and adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Series M-1 Preferred Shares or the holders thereof; provided, however, with respect to the occurrence of any Events set forth in (ii) above, so long as the Series M-1 Preferred Shares remain outstanding with the terms thereof materially unchanged, taking into account that upon the occurrence of an Event, the Trust may not be the surviving entity or the Series M-1 Preferred Shares that remain outstanding may bear a new title, designation and/or be issued by a different issuer, the occurrence of any such Event shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of holders of Series M-1 Preferred Shares and provided further that (x) any increase in the amount of the authorized Preferred Shares or the creation or issuance of any other Series M-1 Preferred Shares, or (y) any increase in the amount of authorized Series M-1 Preferred Shares or any other Preferred Shares, in each case ranking on a parity with or junior to the Series M-1 Preferred Shares with respect to payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers.
107
The foregoing voting provisions will not apply if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding Series M-1 Preferred Shares shall have been redeemed or called for redemption and sufficient funds shall have been deposited in trust to effect such redemption.

(3) Distributions . The holders of the then outstanding Series M-2 Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the Board of Trustees and declared by the Trust out of any funds legally available therefor, cumulative distributions at the rate of $4.185 per share per year, payable in equal amounts of $1.046875 per share quarterly in arrears in cash on the fifteenth day, or if not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, of January, April, July and October in each year (each such day being hereinafter called a Quarterly Distribution Date and each period ending on a Quarterly Distribution Date being hereinafter called a Distribution Period), beginning on the first Quarterly Distribution Date following the issuance of the Series M-2 Preferred Shares, to shareholders of record at the close of business on such date as shall be fixed by the Board of Trustees at the time of declaration of the distribution (the Record Date), which shall not be less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the Quarterly Distribution Date.

In determining whether a distribution (other than upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation), by dividend, redemption or other acquisition of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust or otherwise, is permitted under Maryland law, amounts that would be needed, if the Trust were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders of Series M-2 Preferred Shares will not be added to the Trusts total liabilities.

Except as provided in these terms of the Series M-2 Preferred Shares, the Series M-2 Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to participate in the earnings or assets of the Trust.
(4) Liquidation Rights .
(a) Upon the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Trust, the holders of the Series M-2 Preferred Shares then outstanding shall be entitled to receive and to be paid out of the assets of the Trust available for distribution to its shareholders, before any payment or distribution shall be made on any Junior Shares, the amount of $50.00 per Series M-2 Preferred Share, plus accrued and unpaid distributions thereon.

(d) Neither the sale of all or substantially all the property or business of the Trust, nor the merger or consolidation of the Trust into or with any other entity or the merger or consolidation of any other entity into or with the Trust, shall be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, for the purposes of this paragraph B.

(vi) If the Series M-2 Redemption Date is after a Record Date and before the related Quarterly Distribution Date, the distribution payable on such Quarterly Distribution Date shall be paid to the holder in whose name the Series M-2 Preferred Shares to be redeemed are registered at the close of business on such Record Date notwithstanding the redemption thereof between such Record Date and the related Quarterly Distribution Date or the Trusts default in the payment of the distribution due.
114
(vii) In case of redemption of less than all Series M-2 Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, the Series M-2 Preferred Shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata from the holders of record of such shares in proportion to the number of Series M-2 Preferred Shares held by such holders (with adjustments to avoid redemption of fractional shares) or by any other equitable method determined by the Trust.
(6) Voting Rights . Except as provided in these terms of the Series M-2 Preferred Shares, the holders of the Series M-2 Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to vote at any meeting of the shareholders for election of trustees or for any other purposes or otherwise to participate in any action taken by the Trust or the shareholders thereof, or to receive notice (except for such notice as required by law) of any meeting of shareholders.

With respect to each Series M-2 Preferred Share, the holder thereof may designate up to 10 proxies, with each such proxy having the right to vote a whole number of votes (totaling 10 votes per Series M-2 Preferred Share).
(b) Whenever distributions on any Series M-2 Preferred Shares shall be in arrears for six or more quarterly periods, the holders of such Series M-2 Preferred Shares, voting separately as a class with all other series of Preferred Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, will be entitled to vote for the election of two additional Trustees of the Trust at a special meeting called by the holders of record of at least ten percent (10%) of any series of Preferred Shares so in arrears (unless such request is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of the shareholders) or at the next annual meeting of shareholders, and at each subsequent annual meeting until all distributions accumulated on such Series M-2 Preferred Shares for the past distribution periods and the then current distribution period shall have been fully paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment. In such case, the entire Board of Trustees of the Trust will be increased by two Trustees.

(vii) In case of redemption of less than all Series M-3 Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, the Series M-3 Preferred Shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata from the holders of record of such shares in proportion to the number of Series M-3 Preferred Shares held by

With respect to each Series M-3 Preferred Share, the holder thereof may designate up to 10 proxies, with each such proxy having the right to vote a whole number of votes (totaling 10 votes per Series M-3 Preferred Share).
(b) Whenever distributions on any Series M-3 Preferred Shares shall be in arrears for six or more quarterly periods, the holders of such Series M-3 Preferred Shares, voting separately as a class with all other series of Preferred Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, will be entitled to vote for the election of two additional Trustees of the Trust at a special meeting called by the holders of record of at least ten percent (10%) of any series of Preferred Shares so in arrears (unless such request is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of the shareholders) or at the next annual meeting of shareholders, and at each subsequent annual meeting until all distributions accumulated on such Series M-3 Preferred Shares for the past distribution periods and the then current distribution period shall have been fully paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment. In such case, the entire Board of Trustees of the Trust will be increased by two Trustees.
(c) So long as any Series M-3 Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Trust will not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Series M-3 Preferred Shares outstanding at the time, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting (such series voting separately as a class), (i) authorize or create, or increase the authorized or issued amount of, any class or series of shares of beneficial interest ranking senior to the Series M-3 Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up or reclassify any authorized

(d) Neither the sale of all or substantially all the property or business of the Trust, nor the merger or consolidation of the Trust into or with any other entity or the merger or consolidation of any other entity into or with the Trust, shall be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, for the purposes of this paragraph B.

B. Series M-5 Preferred Shares
(1) Number and Designation . A series of Preferred Shares, consisting of 190,000 Preferred Shares designated as 7.625% Series M-5 Convertible Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares of Beneficial Interest, $.01 par value per share (liquidation preference $50.00 per share) (the Series M-5 Preferred Shares), is hereby established.
(2) Ranking . In respect of rights to receive distributions and to participate in distributions or payments in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust, the Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall rank pari passu with any other Preferred Shares of the Trust, and will rank senior to the Common Shares and any other class or series of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking, as to distributions and upon liquidation, junior (collectively, the Junior Shares) to the Preferred Shares.
(3) Distributions . The holders of the then outstanding Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the Board of Trustees and declared by the Trust out of any funds legally available therefor, cumulative distributions at the rate of $3.8125 per share per year, payable in equal amounts of $.953125 per share quarterly in arrears in cash on the fifteenth day, or if not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, of January, April, July and October in each year (each such day being hereinafter called a Quarterly Distribution Date and each period ending on a Quarterly Distribution Date being hereinafter called a Distribution Period), beginning on the first Quarterly Distribution Date following the issuance of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares, to shareholders of record at the close of business on such date as shall be fixed by the Board of Trustees at the time of declaration of the distribution (the Record Date), which shall not be less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the Quarterly Distribution Date. The amount of any distribution payable for the initial Distribution Period and for any other Distribution Period shorter than a full Distribution Period shall be pro-rated and computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Distributions on each Series M-5 Preferred Share shall accrue and be cumulative from and including the date of original issue thereof, whether or not (i) distributions on such shares are earned or declared or (ii) on any Quarterly Distribution Date there shall be funds legally available for the payment of distributions. Distributions paid on the Series M-5 Preferred Shares in an amount less than the total amount of such distributions at the
139
time accrued and payable on such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a per share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding.
The amount of any distributions accrued on any Series M-5 Preferred Shares at any Quarterly Distribution Date shall be the amount of any unpaid distributions accumulated thereon, to and including such Quarterly Distribution Date, whether or not earned or declared, and the amount of distributions accrued on any Series M-5 Preferred Shares at any date other than a Quarterly Distribution Date shall be equal to the sum of the amount of any unpaid distributions accumulated thereon, to and including the last preceding Quarterly Distribution Date, whether or not earned or declared, plus an amount calculated on the basis of the annual distribution rate of $3.8125 for the period after such last preceding Quarterly Distribution Date to and including the date as of which the calculation is made based on a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
In determining whether a distribution (other than upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation), by dividend, redemption or other acquisition of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust or otherwise, is permitted under Maryland law, amounts that would be needed, if the Trust were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders of Series M-5 Preferred Shares will not be added to the Trusts total liabilities.
Except as provided in these terms of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares, the Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to participate in the earnings or assets of the Trust.
(4) Liquidation Rights .
(a) Upon the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Trust, the holders of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares then outstanding shall be entitled to receive and to be paid out of the assets of the Trust available for distribution to its shareholders, before any payment or distribution shall be made on any Junior Shares, the amount of $50.00 per Series M-5 Preferred Share, plus accrued and unpaid distributions thereon.
(b) After the payment to the holders of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares of the full preferential amounts provided for in this paragraph B, the holders of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares as such shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Trust.
(c) If, upon any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Trust, the amounts payable with respect to the preference value of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares and any other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking as to any such distribution on parity with the Series M-5 Preferred Shares are not paid in full, the holders of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares and of such other shares will share ratably in any such distribution of assets of the Trust in proportion to the full respective preference amounts to which they are entitled.
(d) Neither the sale of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Trust, nor the merger or consolidation of the Trust into or
140
with any other entity or the merger or consolidation of any other entity into or with the Trust, shall be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, for purposes of this paragraph B.
(5) Redemption .
(a) Optional Redemption . On and after March 23, 2006, the Trust may, at its option, redeem at any time all or, from time to time, part of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares at a price per share (the Series M-5 Redemption Price), payable in cash, of $50.00 per Series M-5 Preferred Share, together with all accrued and unpaid distributions to and including the date fixed for redemption (the Series M-5 Redemption Date), subject to the provisions of paragraph 7 herein.
(b) Procedures for Redemption .
(i) Notice of any redemption will be mailed by the Trust, postage prepaid, or sent via overnight delivery service, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Series M-5 Redemption Date, addressed to the holders of record of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares to be redeemed at their addresses as they appear on the share transfer records of the Trust. No failure to give such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Series M-5 Preferred Shares except as to the holder to whom the Trust has failed to give notice or except as to the holder to whom notice was defective. In addition to any information required by law or by the applicable rules of any exchange upon which Series M-5 Preferred Shares may be listed or admitted to trading, such notice shall state: (a) the Series M-5 Redemption Date; (b) the Series M-5 Redemption Price; (c) the number of Series M-5 Preferred Shares to be redeemed; (d) the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the Series M-5 Redemption Price; and (e) that distributions on the shares to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on the Series M-5 Redemption Date.
(ii) If notice has been mailed in accordance with subparagraph (5)(b)(i) above and provided that on or before the Series M-5 Redemption Date specified in such notice all funds necessary for such redemption shall have been irrevocably set aside by the Trust, separate and apart from its other funds in trust for the pro rata benefit of the holders of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares so called for redemption, so as to be, and to continue to be available therefor, then, from and after the Series M-5 Redemption Date (unless the Trust defaults in the payment of the Series M-5 Redemption Price), distributions on the Series M-5 Preferred Shares so called for redemption shall cease to accumulate, and said shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and shall not have the status of Series M-5 Preferred Shares and all rights of the holders thereof as shareholders of the Trust (except the right to receive the Series M-5 Redemption Price) shall
141
cease. If payment of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares is improperly withheld or refused and not paid by the Trust, distributions on such Series M-5 Preferred Shares will continue to accumulate from the original redemption date to the date of payment, in which case the actual payment date will be considered the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the applicable Series M-5 Redemption Price. Upon surrender, in accordance with said notice, of the certificates for any Series M-5 Preferred Shares so redeemed (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Trust shall so require and the notice shall so state), such Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall be redeemed by the Trust at the Series M-5 Redemption Price. In case fewer than all the Series M-5 Preferred Shares evidenced by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate or certificates shall be issued evidencing the unredeemed Series M-5 Preferred Shares without cost to the holder thereof.
(iii) Any funds deposited with a bank or trust company for the purpose of redeeming Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall be irrevocable except that:
(A) the Trust shall be entitled to receive from such bank or trust company the interest or other earnings, if any, earned on any money so deposited in trust, and the holders of any shares redeemed shall have no claim to such interest or other earnings; and
(B) any balance of monies so deposited by the Trust and unclaimed by the holders of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares entitled thereto at the expiration of two years from the applicable Series M-5 Redemption Date shall be repaid, together with any interest or other earnings earned thereon, to the Trust, and after any such repayment, the holders of the shares entitled to the funds so repaid to the Trust shall look only to the Trust for payment without interest or other earnings.
(iv) No Series M-5 Preferred Shares may be redeemed except with funds legally available for the payment of the Series M-5 Redemption Price.
(v) Unless full accumulated distributions on all Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for payment for all past Distribution Periods and the then current Distribution Period, no Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall be redeemed (unless all outstanding Series M-5 Preferred Shares are simultaneously redeemed) or purchased or otherwise acquired directly or indirectly (except by conversion into or exchange for shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking junior to the Series M-5 Preferred Shares as to distributions and upon liquidation);
142
provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent the redemption of Series M-5 Preferred Shares pursuant to Article VII of the Declaration of Trust or the purchase or acquisition of Series M-5 Preferred Shares.
(vi) If the Series M-5 Redemption Date is after a Record Date and before the related Quarterly Distribution Date, the distribution payable on such Quarterly Distribution Date shall be paid to the holder in whose name the Series M-5 Preferred Shares to be redeemed are registered at the close of business on such Record Date notwithstanding the redemption thereof between such Record Date and the related Quarterly Distribution Date or the Trusts default in the payment of the distribution due.
(vii) In case of redemption of less than all Series M-5 Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, the Series M-5 Preferred Shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata from the holders of record of such shares in proportion to the number of Series M-5 Preferred Shares held by such holders (with adjustments to avoid redemption of fractional shares) or by any other equitable method determined by the Trust.
(6) Voting Rights . Except as provided in these terms of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares, the holders of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to vote at any meeting of the shareholders for election of trustees or for any other purposes or otherwise to participate in any action taken by the Trust or the shareholders thereof, or to receive notice (except for such notice as required by law) of any meeting of shareholders.
(a) In any matter in which the Series M-5 Preferred Shares are entitled to vote (as expressly provided herein), including any action by written consent, each Series M-5 Preferred Share shall be entitled to 10 votes, each of which 10 votes may be directed separately by the holder thereof (or by any proxy or proxies of such holder). With respect to each Series M-5 Preferred Share, the holder thereof may designate up to 10 proxies, with each such proxy having the right to vote a whole number of votes (totaling 10 votes per Series M-5 Preferred Share).
(b) Whenever distributions on any Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall be in arrears for six or more quarterly periods, the holders of such Series M-5 Preferred Shares, voting separately as a class with all other series of Preferred Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, will be entitled to vote for the election of two additional Trustees of the Trust at a special meeting called by the holders of record of at least ten percent (10%) of any series of Preferred Shares so in arrears (unless such request is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of the shareholders) or at the next annual meeting of shareholders, and at each subsequent annual meeting until all distributions accumulated on such Series M-5 Preferred Shares for the past distribution periods and the then current distribution period shall have been fully paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment.
143
In such case, the entire Board of Trustees of the Trust will be increased by two Trustees.
(c) So long as any Series M-5 Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Trust will not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares outstanding at the time, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting (such series voting separately as a class), (i) authorize or create, or increase the authorized or issued amount of, any class or series of shares of beneficial interest ranking senior to the Series M-5 Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up or reclassify any authorized shares of beneficial interest of the Trust into such shares, or create, authorize or issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any such shares; or (ii) amend, alter or repeal the provisions of the Trusts Declaration of Trust or the terms of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise (an Event), so as to materially and adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares or the holders thereof; provided, however, with respect to the occurrence of any Events set forth in (ii) above, so long as the Series M-5 Preferred Shares remain outstanding with the terms thereof materially unchanged, taking into account that upon the occurrence of an Event, the Trust may not be the surviving entity or the Series M-5 Preferred Shares that remain outstanding may bear a new title, designation and/or be issued by a different issuer, the occurrence of any such Event shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of holders of Series M-5 Preferred Shares and provided further that (x) any increase in the amount of the authorized Preferred Shares or the creation or issuance of any other Series M-5 Preferred Shares, or (y) any increase in the amount of authorized Series M-5 Preferred Shares or any other Preferred Shares, in each case ranking on a parity with or junior to the Series M-5 Preferred Shares with respect to payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers.
The foregoing voting provisions will not apply if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall have been redeemed or called for redemption and sufficient funds shall have been deposited in trust to effect such redemption.
(7) Conversion. Holders of Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall have the right to convert all or a portion of such shares into Common Shares, as follows:
(a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this subparagraph (7), a holder of Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall have the right, at his or her option, at any time after March 23, 2011 to convert such shares into the
144
number of fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares obtained by dividing the aggregate liquidation preference of such shares by the Conversion Price (as in effect at the time and on the date provided for in the last paragraph of subsection (b) of this subparagraph (7)) by surrendering such shares to be converted, such surrender to be made in the manner provided in subsection (b) of this subparagraph (7); provided, however, that a holder of Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall have the right to convert such shares as provided above, at his or her option, at any time subsequent to such shares being called for redemption pursuant to subparagraph (5), which right to convert such shares upon a call for redemption shall terminate at the close of business on the fifth Business Day preceding the Series M-5 Redemption Date fixed for such redemption, unless the Trust shall default in making payment of the Common Shares and any cash payable upon such redemption under subparagraph (5) hereof, in which case the holders will retain the conversion rights provided herein, and provided further that, prior to such time as the Series M-5 Preferred Shares have been registered for resale with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and listed for trading on the NYSE or the NASDAQ National Market, the Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall be convertible in whole, but not in part, with respect to all of the outstanding Series M-5 Preferred Shares.
(b) In order to exercise the conversion right, the holder of each Series M-5 Preferred Share to be converted shall surrender the certificate representing such share, duly endorsed or assigned to the Trust or in blank, at the office of the Transfer Agent, accompanied by written notice to the Trust that the holder thereof elects to convert such Series M-5 Preferred Share delivered to the Trust by (a) fax and (b) certified mail postage prepaid or overnight delivery to: Equity Residential Properties Trust, Two North Riverside Plaza, Suite 400, Chicago, Illinois 60606, Attention: Bruce C. Strohm, facsimile number (312) 454-0039. Unless the shares issuable on conversion are to be issued in the same name as the name in which such Series M-5 Preferred Share is registered, each share surrendered for conversion shall be accompanied by instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Trust, duly executed by the holder or such holders duly authorized attorney and an amount sufficient to pay any transfer or similar tax (or evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Trust demonstrating that such taxes have been paid).
Holders of Series M-5 Preferred Shares at the close of business on a distribution payment record date shall be entitled to receive the distribution payable on such shares on the corresponding Quarterly Distribution Date notwithstanding the conversion thereof following such distribution payment record date and prior to such Quarterly Distribution Date. However, Series M-5 Preferred Shares surrendered for conversion during the period between the close of business on any distribution payment record date and the opening of business on the corresponding Quarterly Distribution Date (except shares converted after the issuance of notice of redemption with respect to a Series M-5 Redemption Date during such period or coinciding with such Quarterly Distribution Date, such Series M-5 Preferred Shares being entitled to such distribution on the Quarterly Distribution Date) must be accompanied by payment of a pro rata portion of the distribution payable on such shares on such Quarterly Distribution Date equal to the product of (i) the amount of the quarterly
145
distribution multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days beginning on the date of surrender of such Series M-5 Preferred Shares as provided in the preceding paragraph and ending on the Quarterly Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is 90. A holder of Series M-5 Preferred Shares on a distribution payment record date who (or whose transferees) tenders any such shares for conversion into Common Shares on such Quarterly Distribution Date will receive the distribution payable by the Trust on such Series M-5 Preferred Shares on such date, and the converting holder need not include payment of the amount of such distribution upon surrender of Series M-5 Preferred Shares for conversion. Except as provided above, the Trust shall make no payment or allowance for unpaid distributions, whether or not in arrears, on converted shares or for distributions on the Common Shares issued upon such conversion.
As promptly as practicable after the surrender of certificates representing Series M-5 Preferred Shares as aforesaid, the Trust shall issue and shall deliver at such office to such holder, or on his or her written order, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Common Shares issuable upon the conversion of such shares in accordance with the provisions of this subparagraph (7), and any fractional interest in respect of a Common Share arising upon such conversion shall be settled as provided in subsection (c) of this subparagraph (7).
Each conversion shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which the certificates for Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall have been surrendered and such notice (and if applicable, payment of an amount equal to the distribution payable on such shares) received by the Trust as aforesaid, and the person or persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for Common Shares shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the shares represented thereby at such time on such date, and such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect at such time and on such date unless the share transfer books of the Trust shall be closed on that date, in which event such person or persons shall be deemed to have become such holder or holders of record at the close of business on the next succeeding day on which such share transfer books are open, but such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect on the date on which such shares have been surrendered and such notice received by the Trust.
(c) No fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of Common Shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares. Instead of any fractional interest in a Common Share that would otherwise be deliverable upon the conversion of a share of Series M-5 Preferred Shares, the Trust shall pay to the holder of such share an amount in cash based upon the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of conversion. If more than one Series M-5 Preferred Share shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same holder, the number of full Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Series M-5 Preferred Shares so surrendered.
146
(d) The Conversion Price shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:
(i) If the Trust shall after the Issue Date (A) pay a distribution or make a distribution on its shares of beneficial interest in Common Shares, (B) subdivide its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, (C) combine its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (D) issue any shares of beneficial interest by reclassification of its Common Shares, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution or at the opening of business on the day following the day on which such subdivision, combination or reclassification becomes effective, as the case may be, shall be adjusted so that the holder of any Series M-5 Preferred Shares thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of Common Shares that such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above had such shares been converted immediately prior to the record date in the case of a distribution or the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification. An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (i) shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day next following the record date (except as provided in paragraph (h) below) in the case of a distribution and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day next following the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.
(ii) If the Trust shall issue after the Issue Date rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Shares entitling them (for a period expiring within 45 days after the record date mentioned below) to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at a price per share less than the Fair Market Value per Common Share on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants, then the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day next following such record date shall be adjusted to equal the price determined by multiplying (I) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (A) the number of Common Shares outstanding on the close of business on the date fixed for such determination and (B) the number of shares that the aggregate proceeds to the Trust from the exercise of such rights, options or warrants for Common Shares would purchase at such Fair Market Value, and the denominator of which shall be the sum of (A) the number of Common Shares outstanding on the close of business on the date fixed for such determination and (B) the number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase pursuant to such rights, options or warrants. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day next following such record date (except as provided in subsection (h) below). In determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of Common Shares to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at less than the Fair Market Value, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Trust upon issuance and upon exercise of such
147
rights, options or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Trustees.
(iii) If the Trust shall distribute to all holders of its Common Shares any shares of beneficial interest of the Trust (other than Common Shares) or evidence of its indebtedness or assets (excluding cash distributions paid out of the total equity applicable to Common Shares, including revaluation equity, less the amount of stated capital attributable to Common Shares, determined on the basis of the most recent annual and quarterly consolidated cost basis balance sheets of the Trust and its consolidated subsidiaries available at the time of the declaration of the distribution) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those rights and warrants issued to all holders of Common Shares entitling them for a period expiring within 45 days after the record date referred to in subsection (ii) above to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares, which rights and warrants are referred to in and treated under subsection (ii) above) (any of the foregoing being hereinafter in this subsection (iii) called the Securities), then in each case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying (I) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Fair Market Value per Common Share on the record date mentioned below less the then fair market value (as determined by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Trustees, whose determination shall be conclusive) of the portion of the shares of beneficial interest or assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or of such rights or warrants applicable to one Common Share, and the denominator of which shall be the Fair Market Value per Common Share on the record date mentioned below. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately at the opening of business on the Business Day next following (except as provided in subsection (h) below) the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. For the purposes of this subsection (iii), the distribution of a Security, which is distributed not only to the holders of the Common Shares on the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to such distribution of such Security, but also is distributed with each Common Share delivered to a Person converting a Series M-5 Preferred Share after such determination date, shall not require an adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this subsection (iii); provided that on the date, if any, on which a person converting a Series M-5 Preferred Share would no longer be entitled to receive such Security with a Common Share (other than as a result of the termination of all such Securities), a distribution of such Securities shall be deemed to have occurred, and the Conversion Price shall be adjusted as provided in this subsection (iii) (and such day shall be deemed to be the date fixed for the determination of the shareholders entitled to receive such distribution and the record date within the meaning of the two preceding sentences).
(iv) No adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require a cumulative increase or decrease of at least 1% in such price; provided, however, that any adjustments that by reason of
148
this subsection (iv) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment until made; and provided, further, that any adjustment shall be required and made in accordance with the provisions of this subparagraph (7) (other than this subsection (iv)) not later than such time as may be required in order to preserve the tax-free nature of a distribution to the holders of Common Shares. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this subparagraph (7), the Trust shall not be required to make any adjustment of the Conversion Price for the issuance of any Common Shares pursuant to any plan providing for the reinvestment of distributions or interest payable on securities of the Trust and the investment of additional optional amounts in Common Shares under such plan. All calculations under this subparagraph (7) shall be made to the nearest cent with ($.005 being rounded upward) or to the nearest one-tenth of a share (with .05 of a share being rounded upward), as the case may be. Anything in this subsection (d) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trust shall be entitled, to the extent permitted by law, to make such reductions in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by this subsection (d), as it in its discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any share distributions, subdivision of shares, reclassification or combination of shares, distribution of rights, options or warrants to purchase shares or securities, or a distribution of other assets (other than cash distributions) hereafter made by the Trust to its shareholders shall not be taxable.
(e) If the Trust shall be a party to any transaction (including, without limitation, a merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, self tender offer for all or substantially all of the Common Shares, sale of all or substantially all of the Trusts assets or recapitalization of the Common Shares and excluding any transaction as to which subsection (d)(i) of this subparagraph (7) applied) (each of the foregoing being referred to herein as a Transaction), in each case as a result of which Common Shares shall be converted into the right to receive shares, stock, securities or other property (including cash or any combination thereof), each Series M-5 Preferred Share which is not converted into the right to receive shares, stock, securities or other property in connection with such Transaction shall thereafter be convertible into the kind and amount of shares, stock, securities and other property (including cash or any combination thereof) receivable upon the consummation of such Transaction by a holder of that number of Common Shares into which one Series M-5 Preferred Share was convertible immediately prior to such Transaction, assuming such holder of Common Shares (i) is not a Person with which the Trust consolidated or into which the Trust merged or which merged into the Trust or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (a Constituent Person), or an affiliate of a Constituent Person and (ii) failed to exercise his or her rights of the election, if any, as to the kind or amount of shares, stock, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction (provided that if the kind or amount of shares, stock, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction is not the same for each Common Share of the Trust held immediately prior to such Transaction by other than a Constituent Person or an affiliate thereof and in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised (the Non-Electing Share), then for purposes of this paragraph (e) the kind and amount of shares, securities and other property (including cash)
149
receivable upon such Transaction by each Non-Electing Share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-Electing Shares). The Trust shall not be a party to any Transaction unless the terms of such Transaction are consistent with the provisions of this subsection (e), and it shall not consent or agree to the occurrence of any Transaction until the Trust has entered into an agreement with the successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, for the benefit of the holders of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares that will contain provisions enabling the holders of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares that remain outstanding after such Transaction to convert into the consideration received by holders of Common Shares at the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Transaction. The provisions of this subsection (e) shall similarly apply to successive Transactions.
(f) If:
(i) the Trust shall declare a distribution on the Common Shares (other than in cash out of the total equity applicable to Common Shares, including revaluation equity, less the amount of stated capital attributable to Common Shares, determined on the basis of the most recent annual and quarterly consolidated cost basis balance sheets of the Trust and its consolidated subsidiaries available at the time of the declaration of the distribution); or
(ii) the Trust shall authorize the granting to the holders of the Common Shares of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of any class or any other rights or warrants; or
(iii) there shall be any reclassifications of the Common Shares (other than an event to which subsection (d)(i) of this subparagraph (7) applied) or any consolidation or merger to which the Trust is a party and for which approval of any shareholders of the Trust is required, or a statutory share exchange involving the conversion or exchange of Common Shares into securities or other property, or a self tender offer by the Trust for all or substantially all of its outstanding Common Shares, or the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Trust as an entity and for which approval of any stockholder of the Trust is required; or
(iv) there shall occur the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust,
then the Trust shall cause to be filed with the Transfer Agent and shall cause to be mailed to the holders of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares at their addresses as shown on the share records of the Trust, as promptly as possible, but at least 15 days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (A) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such distribution or rights or warrants, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Shares of record to be entitled to such distribution or rights or warrants are to be determined or (B) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory share exchange, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding up is expected to
150
become effective, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for securities or other property, if any, deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory share exchange, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding up. Failure to give or receive such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the proceedings described in this subparagraph (7).
(g) Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted as herein provided, the Trust shall promptly file with the Transfer Agent and the Depository an officers certificate setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, which certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment absent manifest error. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Trust shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Price setting forth the adjusted Conversion Price and the effective date such adjustment becomes effective and shall mail such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Price to the holder of each Series M-5 Preferred Share at such holders last address as shown on the share records of the Trust.
(h) In any case in which subsection (d) of this subparagraph (7) provides that an adjustment shall become effective on the date next following the record date for an event, the Trust may defer until the occurrence of such event (A) issuing to the holder of any Series M-5 Preferred Shares converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the Common Shares issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and (B) fractionalizing any Series M-5 Preferred Share and/or paying to such holder any amount of cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant to subsection (c) of this subparagraph (7).
(i) There shall be no adjustment of the Conversion Price in case of the issuance of any shares of beneficial interest of the Trust in a reorganization, acquisition or other similar transaction except as specifically set forth in this subparagraph (7). If any action or Transaction would require adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to more than one subsection of this subparagraph (7), only one adjustment shall be made, and such adjustment shall be the amount of adjustment that has the highest absolute value.
(j) If the Trust shall take any action affecting the Common Shares, other than action described in this subparagraph (7), that in the opinion of the Board of Trustees would materially adversely affect the conversion rights of the holders of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares, the Conversion Price for the Series M-5 Preferred Shares may be adjusted, to the extent permitted by law, in such manner, if any, and at such time, as the Board of Trustees, in its sole discretion, may determine to be equitable in the circumstances.
151
(k) The Trust covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but issued Common Shares, for the purpose of affecting conversion of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares, the full number of Common Shares deliverable upon the conversion of all outstanding Series M-5 Preferred Shares not theretofore converted. For purposes of this subsection (k), the number of Common Shares that shall be deliverable upon the conversion of all outstanding Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall be computed as if at the time of computation all such outstanding shares were held by a single holder.
The Trust covenants that any Common Shares issued upon conversion of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Price below the then-par value of the Common Shares deliverable upon conversion of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares, the Trust will take any action that, in the opinion of its counsel, may be necessary in order that the Trust may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Common Shares at such adjusted Conversion Price.
The Trust shall endeavor to list the Common Shares required to be delivered upon conversion of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares, prior to such delivery, upon each national securities exchange, if any, upon which the outstanding Common Shares are listed at the time of such delivery.
Prior to the delivery of any securities that the Trust shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares, the Trust shall endeavor to comply with all federal and state laws and regulations thereunder requiring the registration of such securities with, or any approval of or consent to the delivery thereof by any governmental authority.
(l) The Trust will pay any and all documentary stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes payable in respect of the issue or delivery of Common Shares or other securities or property on conversion of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares pursuant hereto; provided, however , that the Trust shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of Common Shares or other securities or property in a name other than that of title holder of the Series M-5 Preferred Shares to be converted, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Trust the amount of any such tax or established, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trust, that such tax has been paid.
(m) In addition to the foregoing adjustments, the Company will be permitted to make such reductions in the Conversion Price as it considers to be advisable in order that any event treated for federal income tax purposes as a dividend of stock or stock rights will not be taxable to the holders of the Common Shares.
152

B. Series M-6 Preferred Shares .

A series of Preferred Shares, consisting of 270,000 Preferred Shares designated as 7.625% Series M-6 Convertible Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares of Beneficial Interest, $.01 par value per share (liquidation preference $50.00 per share) (the Series M-6 Preferred Shares), is hereby established.
(2) Ranking . In respect of rights to receive distributions and to participate in distributions or payments in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust, the Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall rank pari passu with any other Preferred Shares of the Trust, and will rank senior to the Common Shares and any other class or series of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking, as to distributions and upon liquidation, junior (collectively, the Junior Shares) to the Preferred Shares.
(3) Distributions . The holders of the then outstanding Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the Board of Trustees and declared by the Trust out of any funds legally available therefor, cumulative distributions at the rate of $3.8125 per share per year, payable in equal amounts of $.953125 per share quarterly in arrears in cash on the fifteenth day, or if not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, of January, April, July and October in each year (each such day being hereinafter called a Quarterly Distribution Date and each period ending on a Quarterly Distribution Date being hereinafter called a Distribution Period), beginning on the first Quarterly Distribution Date following the issuance of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares, to shareholders of record at the close of business on such date
157
as shall be fixed by the Board of Trustees at the time of declaration of the distribution (the Record Date), which shall not be less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the Quarterly Distribution Date. The amount of any distribution payable for the initial Distribution Period and for any other Distribution Period shorter than a full Distribution Period shall be pro-rated and computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if and when the holders of the Series I Lexford Preference Units exercise their right to convert the Series I Lexford Preference Units into Series M-6 Preferred Shares, the amount of any distribution payable for the initial Distribution Period shall include any and all amounts of distributions accrued but not yet paid on the Series I Lexford Preference Units in accordance with Section 9(B)(ii) of the Other Securities Term Sheet and Joinder to Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of Lexford Properties, L.P. Distributions on each Series M-6 Preferred Share shall accrue and be cumulative from and including the date of original issue thereof, whether or not (i) distributions on such shares are earned or declared or (ii) on any Quarterly Distribution Date there shall be funds legally available for the payment of distributions. Distributions paid on the Series M-6 Preferred Shares in an amount less than the total amount of such distributions at the time accrued and payable on such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a per share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding.
The amount of any distributions accrued on any Series M-6 Preferred Shares at any Quarterly Distribution Date shall be the amount of any unpaid distributions accumulated thereon, to and including such Quarterly Distribution Date, whether or not earned or declared, and the amount of distributions accrued on any Series M-6 Preferred Shares at any date other than a Quarterly Distribution Date shall be equal to the sum of the amount of any unpaid distributions accumulated thereon, to and including the last preceding Quarterly Distribution Date, whether or not earned or declared, plus an amount calculated on the basis of the annual distribution rate of $3.8125 for the period after such last preceding Quarterly Distribution Date to and including the date as of which the calculation is made based on a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
In determining whether a distribution (other than upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation), by dividend, redemption or other acquisition of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust or otherwise, is permitted under Maryland law, amounts that would be needed, if the Trust were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders of Series M-6 Preferred Shares will not be added to the Trusts total liabilities.
Except as provided in these terms of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares, the Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to participate in the earnings or assets of the Trust.
(4) Liquidation Rights .
(a) Upon the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Trust, the holders of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares then outstanding shall be entitled to receive and to be paid out of the assets of the Trust available for distribution to its shareholders, before any payment or distribution shall be made on any Junior Shares, the amount of $50.00 per Series M-6 Preferred Share, plus accrued and unpaid distributions thereon.
158
(b) After the payment to the holders of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares of the full preferential amounts provided for in this paragraph B, the holders of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares as such shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Trust.
(c) If, upon any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Trust, the amounts payable with respect to the preference value of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares and any other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking as to any such distribution on parity with the Series M-6 Preferred Shares are not paid in full, the holders of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares and of such other shares will share ratably in any such distribution of assets of the Trust in proportion to the full respective preference amounts to which they are entitled.
(d) Neither the sale of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Trust, nor the merger or consolidation of the Trust into or with any other entity or the merger or consolidation of any other entity into or with the Trust, shall be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, for purposes of this paragraph B.
(5) Redemption .
(a) Optional Redemption . On and after June 22, 2006, the Trust may, at its option, redeem at any time all or, from time to time, part of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares at a price per share (the Series M-6 Redemption Price), payable in cash, of $50.00 per Series M-6 Preferred Share, together with all accrued and unpaid distributions to and including the date fixed for redemption (the Series M-6 Redemption Date), subject to the provisions of paragraph 7 herein.
(b) Procedures for Redemption .
(i) Notice of any redemption will be mailed by the Trust, postage prepaid, or sent via overnight delivery service, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Series M-6 Redemption Date, addressed to the holders of record of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares to be redeemed at their addresses as they appear on the share transfer records of the Trust. No failure to give such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Series M-6 Preferred Shares except as to the holder to whom the Trust has failed to give notice or except as to the holder to whom notice was defective. In addition to any information required by law or by the applicable rules of any exchange upon which Series M-6 Preferred Shares may be listed or admitted to trading, such notice shall state: (a) the Series M-6 Redemption Date; (b) the Series M-6 Redemption Price; (c) the number of Series M-6 Preferred Shares to be redeemed; (d) the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the Series M-6 Redemption
159
Price; and (e) that distributions on the shares to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on the Series M-6 Redemption Date.
(ii) If notice has been mailed in accordance with subparagraph (5)(b)(i) above and provided that on or before the Series M-6 Redemption Date specified in such notice all funds necessary for such redemption shall have been irrevocably set aside by the Trust, separate and apart from its other funds in trust for the pro rata benefit of the holders of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares so called for redemption, so as to be, and to continue to be available therefor, then, from and after the Series M-6 Redemption Date (unless the Trust defaults in the payment of the Series M-6 Redemption Price), distributions on the Series M-6 Preferred Shares so called for redemption shall cease to accumulate, and said shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and shall not have the status of Series M-6 Preferred Shares and all rights of the holders thereof as shareholders of the Trust (except the right to receive the Series M-6 Redemption Price) shall cease. If payment of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares is improperly withheld or refused and not paid by the Trust, distributions on such Series M-6 Preferred Shares will continue to accumulate from the original redemption date to the date of payment, in which case the actual payment date will be considered the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the applicable Series M-6 Redemption Price. Upon surrender, in accordance with said notice, of the certificates for any Series M-6 Preferred Shares so redeemed (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Trust shall so require and the notice shall so state), such Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall be redeemed by the Trust at the Series M-6 Redemption Price. In case fewer than all the Series M-6 Preferred Shares evidenced by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate or certificates shall be issued evidencing the unredeemed Series M-6 Preferred Shares without cost to the holder thereof.
(iii) Any funds deposited with a bank or trust company for the purpose of redeeming Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall be irrevocable except that:
(A) the Trust shall be entitled to receive from such bank or trust company the interest or other earnings, if any, earned on any money so deposited in trust, and the holders of any shares redeemed shall have no claim to such interest or other earnings; and
(B) any balance of monies so deposited by the Trust and unclaimed by the holders of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares entitled thereto at the expiration of two years from the applicable Series M-6 Redemption Date shall be repaid, together with any interest or other earnings earned thereon, to the Trust, and after any such repayment, the holders of the shares entitled to the
160
funds so repaid to the Trust shall look only to the Trust for payment without interest or other earnings.
(iv) No Series M-6 Preferred Shares may be redeemed except with funds legally available for the payment of the Series M-6 Redemption Price.
(v) Unless full accumulated distributions on all Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for payment for all past Distribution Periods and the then current Distribution Period, no Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall be redeemed (unless all outstanding Series M-6 Preferred Shares are simultaneously redeemed) or purchased or otherwise acquired directly or indirectly (except by conversion into or exchange for shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking junior to the Series M-6 Preferred Shares as to distributions and upon liquidation); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent the redemption of Series M-6 Preferred Shares pursuant to Article VII of the Declaration of Trust or the purchase or acquisition of Series M-6 Preferred Shares.
(vi) If the Series M-6 Redemption Date is after a Record Date and before the related Quarterly Distribution Date, the distribution payable on such Quarterly Distribution Date shall be paid to the holder in whose name the Series M-6 Preferred Shares to be redeemed are registered at the close of business on such Record Date notwithstanding the redemption thereof between such Record Date and the related Quarterly Distribution Date or the Trusts default in the payment of the distribution due.
(vii) In case of redemption of less than all Series M-6 Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, the Series M-6 Preferred Shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata from the holders of record of such shares in proportion to the number of Series M-6 Preferred Shares held by such holders (with adjustments to avoid redemption of fractional shares) or by any other equitable method determined by the Trust.
(6) Voting Rights . Except as provided in these terms of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares, the holders of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to vote at any meeting of the shareholders for election of trustees or for any other purposes or otherwise to participate in any action taken by the Trust or the shareholders thereof, or to receive notice (except for such notice as required by law) of any meeting of shareholders.
(a) In any matter in which the Series M-6 Preferred Shares are entitled to vote (as expressly provided herein), including any action by written consent, each Series M-6 Preferred Share shall be entitled to 10 votes, each of which 10 votes may be directed separately by the holder thereof (or by any proxy or proxies of such holder). With respect to each Series M-6 Preferred Share, the holder thereof may designate up to 10 proxies, with each such proxy having the right to vote a whole number of votes (totaling 10 votes per Series M-6 Preferred Share).
161
(b) Whenever distributions on any Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall be in arrears for six or more quarterly periods, the holders of such Series M-6 Preferred Shares, voting separately as a class with all other series of Preferred Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, will be entitled to vote for the election of two additional Trustees of the Trust at a special meeting called by the holders of record of at least ten percent (10%) of any series of Preferred Shares so in arrears (unless such request is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of the shareholders) or at the next annual meeting of shareholders, and at each subsequent annual meeting until all distributions accumulated on such Series M-6 Preferred Shares for the past distribution periods and the then current distribution period shall have been fully paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment. In such case, the entire Board of Trustees of the Trust will be increased by two Trustees.
(c) So long as any Series M-6 Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Trust will not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares outstanding at the time, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting (such series voting separately as a class), (i) authorize or create, or increase the authorized or issued amount of, any class or series of shares of beneficial interest ranking senior to the Series M-6 Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up or reclassify any authorized shares of beneficial interest of the Trust into such shares, or create, authorize or issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any such shares; or (ii) amend, alter or repeal the provisions of the Trusts Declaration of Trust or the terms of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise (an Event), so as to materially and adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares or the holders thereof; provided, however, with respect to the occurrence of any Events set forth in (ii) above, so long as the Series M-6 Preferred Shares remain outstanding with the terms thereof materially unchanged, taking into account that upon the occurrence of an Event, the Trust may not be the surviving entity or the Series M-6 Preferred Shares that remain outstanding may bear a new title, designation and/or be issued by a different issuer, the occurrence of any such Event shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of holders of Series M-6 Preferred Shares and provided further that (x) any increase in the amount of the authorized Preferred Shares or the creation or issuance of any other Series M-6 Preferred Shares, or (y) any increase in the amount of authorized Series M-6 Preferred Shares or any other Preferred Shares, in each case ranking on a parity with or junior to the Series M-6 Preferred Shares with respect to payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers.
162
The foregoing voting provisions will not apply if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall have been redeemed or called for redemption and sufficient funds shall have been deposited in trust to effect such redemption.
(7) Conversion . Holders of Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall have the right to convert all or a portion of such shares into Common Shares, as follows:
(a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this subparagraph (7), a holder of Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall have the right, at his or her option, at any time after June 22, 2011 to convert such shares into the number of fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares obtained by dividing the aggregate liquidation preference of such shares by the Conversion Price (as in effect at the time and on the date provided for in the last paragraph of subsection (b) of this subparagraph (7)) by surrendering such shares to be converted, such surrender to be made in the manner provided in subsection (b) of this subparagraph (7); provided , however , that a holder of Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall have the right to convert such shares as provided above, at his or her option, at any time subsequent to such shares being called for redemption pursuant to subparagraph (5), which right to convert such shares upon a call for redemption shall terminate at the close of business on the fifth Business Day preceding the Series M-6 Redemption Date fixed for such redemption, unless the Trust shall default in making payment of the Common Shares and any cash payable upon such redemption under subparagraph (5) hereof, in which case the holders will retain the conversion rights provided herein, and provided further that, prior to such time as the Series M-6 Preferred Shares have been registered for resale with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and listed for trading on the NYSE or the NASDAQ National Market, the Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall be convertible in whole, but not in part, with respect to all of the outstanding Series M-6 Preferred Shares.
(b) In order to exercise the conversion right, the holder of each Series M-6 Preferred Share to be converted shall surrender the certificate representing such share, duly endorsed or assigned to the Trust or in blank, at the office of the Transfer Agent, accompanied by written notice to the Trust that the holder thereof elects to convert such Series M-6 Preferred Share delivered to the Trust by (a) fax and (b) certified mail postage prepaid or overnight delivery to: Equity Residential Properties Trust, Two North Riverside Plaza, Suite 400, Chicago, Illinois 60606, Attention: Bruce C. Strohm, facsimile number (312) 454-0039. Unless the shares issuable on conversion are to be issued in the same name as the name in which such Series M-6 Preferred Share is registered, each share surrendered for conversion shall be accompanied by instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Trust, duly executed by the holder or such holders duly authorized attorney and an amount sufficient to pay any transfer or similar tax (or evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Trust demonstrating that such taxes have been paid).
Holders of Series M-6 Preferred Shares at the close of business on a distribution payment record date shall be entitled to receive the distribution payable on such
163
shares on the corresponding Quarterly Distribution Date notwithstanding the conversion thereof following such distribution payment record date and prior to such Quarterly Distribution Date. However, Series M-6 Preferred Shares surrendered for conversion during the period between the close of business on any distribution payment record date and the opening of business on the corresponding Quarterly Distribution Date (except shares converted after the issuance of notice of redemption with respect to a Series M-6 Redemption Date during such period or coinciding with such Quarterly Distribution Date, such Series M-6 Preferred Shares being entitled to such distribution on the Quarterly Distribution Date) must be accompanied by payment of a pro rata portion of the distribution payable on such shares on such Quarterly Distribution Date equal to the product of (i) the amount of the quarterly distribution multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days beginning on the date of surrender of such Series M-6 Preferred Shares as provided in the preceding paragraph and ending on the Quarterly Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is 90. A holder of Series M-6 Preferred Shares on a distribution payment record date who (or whose transferees) tenders any such shares for conversion into Common Shares on such Quarterly Distribution Date will receive the distribution payable by the Trust on such Series M-6 Preferred Shares on such date, and the converting holder need not include payment of the amount of such distribution upon surrender of Series M-6 Preferred Shares for conversion. Except as provided above, the Trust shall make no payment or allowance for unpaid distributions, whether or not in arrears, on converted shares or for distributions on the Common Shares issued upon such conversion.
As promptly as practicable after the surrender of certificates representing Series M-6 Preferred Shares as aforesaid, the Trust shall issue and shall deliver at such office to such holder, or on his or her written order, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Common Shares issuable upon the conversion of such shares in accordance with the provisions of this subparagraph (7), and any fractional interest in respect of a Common Share arising upon such conversion shall be settled as provided in subsection (c) of this subparagraph (7).
Each conversion shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which the certificates for Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall have been surrendered and such notice (and if applicable, payment of an amount equal to the distribution payable on such shares) received by the Trust as aforesaid, and the person or persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for Common Shares shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the shares represented thereby at such time on such date, and such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect at such time and on such date unless the share transfer books of the Trust shall be closed on that date, in which event such person or persons shall be deemed to have become such holder or holders of record at the close of business on the next succeeding day on which such share transfer books are open, but such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect on the date on which such shares have been surrendered and such notice received by the Trust.
164
(c) No fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of Common Shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares. Instead of any fractional interest in a Common Share that would otherwise be deliverable upon the conversion of a share of Series M-6 Preferred Shares, the Trust shall pay to the holder of such share an amount in cash based upon the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of conversion. If more than one Series M-6 Preferred Share shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same holder, the number of full Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Series M-6 Preferred Shares so surrendered.
(d) The Conversion Price shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:
(i) If the Trust shall after the Issue Date (A) pay a distribution or make a distribution on its shares of beneficial interest in Common Shares, (B) subdivide its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, (C) combine its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (D) issue any shares of beneficial interest by reclassification of its Common Shares, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution or at the opening of business on the day following the day on which such subdivision, combination or reclassification becomes effective, as the case may be, shall be adjusted so that the holder of any Series M-6 Preferred Shares thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of Common Shares that such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above had such shares been converted immediately prior to the record date in the case of a distribution or the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification. An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (i) shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day next following the record date (except as provided in paragraph (h) below) in the case of a distribution and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day next following the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.
(ii) If the Trust shall issue after the Issue Date rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Shares entitling them (for a period expiring within 45 days after the record date mentioned below) to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at a price per share less than the Fair Market Value per Common Share on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants, then the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day next following such record date shall be adjusted to equal the price determined by multiplying (I) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (A) the number of Common Shares outstanding on the close of business on the date fixed for such determination and (B) the number of shares that the aggregate proceeds to the Trust from the exercise of such rights, options or warrants for
165
Common Shares would purchase at such Fair Market Value, and the denominator of which shall be the sum of (A) the number of Common Shares outstanding on the close of business on the date fixed for such determination and (B) the number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase pursuant to such rights, options or warrants. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day next following such record date (except as provided in subsection (h) below). In determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of Common Shares to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at less than the Fair Market Value, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Trust upon issuance and upon exercise of such rights, options or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Trustees.
(iii) If the Trust shall distribute to all holders of its Common Shares any shares of beneficial interest of the Trust (other than Common Shares) or evidence of its indebtedness or assets (excluding cash distributions paid out of the total equity applicable to Common Shares, including revaluation equity, less the amount of stated capital attributable to Common Shares, determined on the basis of the most recent annual and quarterly consolidated cost basis balance sheets of the Trust and its consolidated subsidiaries available at the time of the declaration of the distribution) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those rights and warrants issued to all holders of Common Shares entitling them for a period expiring within 45 days after the record date referred to in subsection (ii) above to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares, which rights and warrants are referred to in and treated under subsection (ii) above) (any of the foregoing being hereinafter in this subsection (iii) called the Securities), then in each case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying (I) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Fair Market Value per Common Share on the record date mentioned below less the then fair market value (as determined by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Trustees, whose determination shall be conclusive) of the portion of the shares of beneficial interest or assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or of such rights or warrants applicable to one Common Share, and the denominator of which shall be the Fair Market Value per Common Share on the record date mentioned below. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately at the opening of business on the Business Day next following (except as provided in subsection (h) below) the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. For the purposes of this subsection (iii), the distribution of a Security, which is distributed not only to the holders of the Common Shares on the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to such distribution of such Security, but also is distributed with each Common Share delivered to a Person converting a Series M-6 Preferred Share after such determination date, shall not require an adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this subsection (iii); provided that on the date, if any, on which a person converting a Series M-6 Preferred Share would no longer be
166
entitled to receive such Security with a Common Share (other than as a result of the termination of all such Securities), a distribution of such Securities shall be deemed to have occurred, and the Conversion Price shall be adjusted as provided in this subsection (iii) (and such day shall be deemed to be the date fixed for the determination of the shareholders entitled to receive such distribution and the record date within the meaning of the two preceding sentences).
(iv) No adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require a cumulative increase or decrease of at least 1% in such price; provided , however , that any adjustments that by reason of this subsection (iv) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment until made; and provided , further , that any adjustment shall be required and made in accordance with the provisions of this subparagraph (7) (other than this subsection (iv)) not later than such time as may be required in order to preserve the tax-free nature of a distribution to the holders of Common Shares. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this subparagraph (7), the Trust shall not be required to make any adjustment of the Conversion Price for the issuance of any Common Shares pursuant to any plan providing for the reinvestment of distributions or interest payable on securities of the Trust and the investment of additional optional amounts in Common Shares under such plan. All calculations under this subparagraph (7) shall be made to the nearest cent with ($.005 being rounded upward) or to the nearest one-tenth of a share (with .05 of a share being rounded upward), as the case may be. Anything in this subsection (d) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trust shall be entitled, to the extent permitted by law, to make such reductions in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by this subsection (d), as it in its discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any share distributions, subdivision of shares, reclassification or combination of shares, distribution of rights, options or warrants to purchase shares or securities, or a distribution of other assets (other than cash distributions) hereafter made by the Trust to its shareholders shall not be taxable.
(e) If the Trust shall be a party to any transaction (including, without limitation, a merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, self tender offer for all or substantially all of the Common Shares, sale of all or substantially all of the Trusts assets or recapitalization of the Common Shares and excluding any transaction as to which subsection (d)(i) of this subparagraph (7) applied) (each of the foregoing being referred to herein as a Transaction), in each case as a result of which Common Shares shall be converted into the right to receive shares, stock, securities or other property (including cash or any combination thereof), each Series M-6 Preferred Share which is not converted into the right to receive shares, stock, securities or other property in connection with such Transaction shall thereafter be convertible into the kind and amount of shares, stock, securities and other property (including cash or any combination thereof) receivable upon the consummation of such Transaction by a holder of that number of Common Shares into which one Series M-6 Preferred Share was convertible immediately prior to such Transaction, assuming such holder of Common Shares (i) is not a Person with which the Trust consolidated or into which the Trust merged or which merged into the Trust or to
167
which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (a Constituent Person), or an affiliate of a Constituent Person and (ii) failed to exercise his or her rights of the election, if any, as to the kind or amount of shares, stock, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction (provided that if the kind or amount of shares, stock, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction is not the same for each Common Share of the Trust held immediately prior to such Transaction by other than a Constituent Person or an affiliate thereof and in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised (the Non-Electing Share), then for purposes of this paragraph (e) the kind and amount of shares, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction by each Non-Electing Share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-Electing Shares). The Trust shall not be a party to any Transaction unless the terms of such Transaction are consistent with the provisions of this subsection (e), and it shall not consent or agree to the occurrence of any Transaction until the Trust has entered into an agreement with the successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, for the benefit of the holders of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares that will contain provisions enabling the holders of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares that remain outstanding after such Transaction to convert into the consideration received by holders of Common Shares at the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Transaction. The provisions of this subsection (e) shall similarly apply to successive Transactions.
(f) If:
(i) the Trust shall declare a distribution on the Common Shares (other than in cash out of the total equity applicable to Common Shares, including revaluation equity, less the amount of stated capital attributable to Common Shares, determined on the basis of the most recent annual and quarterly consolidated cost basis balance sheets of the Trust and its consolidated subsidiaries available at the time of the declaration of the distribution); or
(ii) the Trust shall authorize the granting to the holders of the Common Shares of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of any class or any other rights or warrants; or
(iii) there shall be any reclassifications of the Common Shares (other than an event to which subsection (d)(i) of this subparagraph (7) applied) or any consolidation or merger to which the Trust is a party and for which approval of any shareholders of the Trust is required, or a statutory share exchange involving the conversion or exchange of Common Shares into securities or other property, or a self tender offer by the Trust for all or substantially all of its outstanding Common Shares, or the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Trust as an entity and for which approval of any stockholder of the Trust is required; or
168
(iv) there shall occur the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust, then the Trust shall cause to be filed with the Transfer Agent and shall cause to be mailed to the holders of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares at their addresses as shown on the share records of the Trust, as promptly as possible, but at least 15 days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (A) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such distribution or rights or warrants, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Shares of record to be entitled to such distribution or rights or warrants are to be determined or (B) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory share exchange, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding up is expected to become effective, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for securities or other property, if any, deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory share exchange, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding up. Failure to give or receive such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the proceedings described in this subparagraph (7).
(g) Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted as herein provided, the Trust shall promptly file with the Transfer Agent and the Depository an officers certificate setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, which certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment absent manifest error. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Trust shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Price setting forth the adjusted Conversion Price and the effective date such adjustment becomes effective and shall mail such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Price to the holder of each Series M-6 Preferred Share at such holders last address as shown on the share records of the Trust.
(h) In any case in which subsection (d) of this subparagraph (7) provides that an adjustment shall become effective on the date next following the record date for an event, the Trust may defer until the occurrence of such event (A) issuing to the holder of any Series M-6 Preferred Shares converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the Common Shares issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and (B) fractionalizing any Series M-6 Preferred Share and/or paying to such holder any amount of cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant to subsection (c) of this subparagraph (7).
(i) There shall be no adjustment of the Conversion Price in case of the issuance of any shares of beneficial interest of the Trust in a reorganization, acquisition or other similar transaction except as specifically set forth in this subparagraph (7). If any action or Transaction would require adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to more than one subsection of this subparagraph (7), only one adjustment shall be made, and such adjustment shall be the amount of adjustment that has the highest absolute value.
169
(j) If the Trust shall take any action affecting the Common Shares, other than action described in this subparagraph (7), that in the opinion of the Board of Trustees would materially adversely affect the conversion rights of the holders of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares, the Conversion Price for the Series M-6 Preferred Shares may be adjusted, to the extent permitted by law, in such manner, if any, and at such time, as the Board of Trustees, in its sole discretion, may determine to be equitable in the circumstances.
(k) The Trust covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but issued Common Shares, for the purpose of affecting conversion of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares, the full number of Common Shares deliverable upon the conversion of all outstanding Series M-6 Preferred Shares not theretofore converted. For purposes of this subsection (k), the number of Common Shares that shall be deliverable upon the conversion of all outstanding Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall be computed as if at the time of computation all such outstanding shares were held by a single holder.
The Trust covenants that any Common Shares issued upon conversion of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Price below the then-par value of the Common Shares deliverable upon conversion of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares, the Trust will take any action that, in the opinion of its counsel, may be necessary in order that the Trust may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Common Shares at such adjusted Conversion Price.
The Trust shall endeavor to list the Common Shares required to be delivered upon conversion of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares, prior to such delivery, upon each national securities exchange, if any, upon which the outstanding Common Shares are listed at the time of such delivery.
Prior to the delivery of any securities that the Trust shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares, the Trust shall endeavor to comply with all federal and state laws and regulations thereunder requiring the registration of such securities with, or any approval of or consent to the delivery thereof by any governmental authority.
(l) The Trust will pay any and all documentary stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes payable in respect of the issue or delivery of Common Shares or other securities or property on conversion of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares pursuant hereto; provided, however , that the Trust shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of Common Shares or other securities or property in a name other than that of title holder of the Series M-6 Preferred Shares to be converted, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issue or delivery
170
has paid to the Trust the amount of any such tax or established, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trust, that such tax has been paid.
(m) In addition to the foregoing adjustments, the Company will be permitted to make such reductions in the Conversion Price as it considers to be advisable in order that any event treated for federal income tax purposes as a dividend of stock or stock rights will not be taxable to the holders of the Common Shares.

B. Series M-7 Preferred Shares
(1) Number and Designation . A series of Preferred Shares, consisting of 230,000 Preferred Shares designated as 7.625% Series M-7 Convertible Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares of Beneficial Interest, $.01 par value per share (liquidation preference $50.00 per share) (the Series M-7 Preferred Shares), is hereby established.
(2) Ranking . In respect of rights to receive distributions and to participate in distributions or payments in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust, the Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall rank pari passu with any other Preferred Shares of the Trust, and will rank senior to the Common Shares and any other class or series of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking, as to distributions and upon liquidation, junior (collectively, the Junior Shares) to the Preferred Shares.
(3) Distributions . The holders of the then outstanding Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the Board of Trustees and declared by the Trust out of any funds legally available therefor, cumulative distributions at the rate of $3.8125 per share per year, payable in equal amounts of $.953125 per share quarterly in arrears in cash on the fifteenth day, or if not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, of January, April, July and October in each year (each such day being hereinafter called a Quarterly
175
Distribution Date and each period ending on a Quarterly Distribution Date being hereinafter called a Distribution Period), beginning on the first Quarterly Distribution Date following the issuance of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares, to shareholders of record at the close of business on such date as shall be fixed by the Board of Trustees at the time of declaration of the distribution (the Record Date), which shall not be less than 10 nor more than 30 days preceding the Quarterly Distribution Date. The amount of any distribution payable for the initial Distribution Period and for any other Distribution Period shorter than a full Distribution Period shall be pro-rated and computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if and when the holders of the Series J Lexford Preference Units exercise their right to convert the Series J Lexford Preference Units into Series M-7 Preferred Shares, the amount of any distribution payable for the initial Distribution Period shall include any and all amounts of distributions accrued but not yet paid on the Series J Lexford Preference Units in accordance with Section 9(B)(ii) of the Other Securities Term Sheet and Joinder to Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of Lexford Properties, L.P. Distributions on each Series M-7 Preferred Share shall accrue and be cumulative from and including the date of original issue thereof, whether or not (i) distributions on such shares are earned or declared or (ii) on any Quarterly Distribution Date there shall be funds legally available for the payment of distributions. Distributions paid on the Series M-7 Preferred Shares in an amount less than the total amount of such distributions at the time accrued and payable on such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a per share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding.
The amount of any distributions accrued on any Series M-7 Preferred Shares at any Quarterly Distribution Date shall be the amount of any unpaid distributions accumulated thereon, to and including such Quarterly Distribution Date, whether or not earned or declared, and the amount of distributions accrued on any Series M-7 Preferred Shares at any date other than a Quarterly Distribution Date shall be equal to the sum of the amount of any unpaid distributions accumulated thereon, to and including the last preceding Quarterly Distribution Date, whether or not earned or declared, plus an amount calculated on the basis of the annual distribution rate of $3.8125 for the period after such last preceding Quarterly Distribution Date to and including the date as of which the calculation is made based on a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
In determining whether a distribution (other than upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation), by dividend, redemption or other acquisition of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust or otherwise, is permitted under Maryland law, amounts that would be needed, if the Trust were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders of Series M-7 Preferred Shares will not be added to the Trusts total liabilities.
Except as provided in these terms of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares, the Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to participate in the earnings or assets of the Trust.
(4) Liquidation Rights .
(a) Upon the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Trust, the holders of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares then outstanding shall be entitled to receive and to be paid out of the assets of the Trust available for distribution to its shareholders, before any payment or
176
distribution shall be made on any Junior Shares, the amount of $50.00 per Series M-7 Preferred Share, plus accrued and unpaid distributions thereon.
(b) After the payment to the holders of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares of the full preferential amounts provided for in this paragraph B, the holders of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares as such shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Trust.
(c) If, upon any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Trust, the amounts payable with respect to the preference value of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares and any other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking as to any such distribution on parity with the Series M-7 Preferred Shares are not paid in full, the holders of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares and of such other shares will share ratably in any such distribution of assets of the Trust in proportion to the full respective preference amounts to which they are entitled.
(d) Neither the sale of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Trust, nor the merger or consolidation of the Trust into or with any other entity or the merger or consolidation of any other entity into or with the Trust, shall be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, for purposes of this paragraph B.
(5) Redemption .
(a) Optional Redemption . On and after December 14, 2006, the Trust may, at its option, redeem at any time all or, from time to time, part of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares at a price per share (the Series M-7 Redemption Price), payable in cash, of $50.00 per Series M-7 Preferred Share, together with all accrued and unpaid distributions to and including the date fixed for redemption (the Series M-7 Redemption Date), subject to the provisions of paragraph 7 herein.
(b) Procedures for Redemption .
(i) Notice of any redemption will be mailed by the Trust, postage prepaid, or sent via overnight delivery service, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Series M-7 Redemption Date, addressed to the holders of record of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares to be redeemed at their addresses as they appear on the share transfer records of the Trust. No failure to give such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Series M-7 Preferred Shares except as to the holder to whom the Trust has failed to give notice or except as to the holder to whom notice was defective. In addition to any information required by law or by the applicable rules of any exchange upon which Series M-7 Preferred Shares may be listed or admitted to trading, such notice shall state: (a) the Series M-7 Redemption Date; (b)
177
the Series M-7 Redemption Price; (c) the number of Series M-7 Preferred Shares to be redeemed; (d) the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the Series M-7 Redemption Price; and (e) that distributions on the shares to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on the Series M-7 Redemption Date.
(ii) If notice has been mailed in accordance with subparagraph (5)(b)(i) above and provided that on or before the Series M-7 Redemption Date specified in such notice all funds necessary for such redemption shall have been irrevocably set aside by the Trust, separate and apart from its other funds in trust for the pro rata benefit of the holders of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares so called for redemption, so as to be, and to continue to be available therefor, then, from and after the Series M-7 Redemption Date (unless the Trust defaults in the payment of the Series M-7 Redemption Price), distributions on the Series M-7 Preferred Shares so called for redemption shall cease to accumulate, and said shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and shall not have the status of Series M-7 Preferred Shares and all rights of the holders thereof as shareholders of the Trust (except the right to receive the Series M-7 Redemption Price) shall cease. If payment of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares is improperly withheld or refused and not paid by the Trust, distributions on such Series M-7 Preferred Shares will continue to accumulate from the original redemption date to the date of payment, in which case the actual payment date will be considered the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the applicable Series M-7 Redemption Price. Upon surrender, in accordance with said notice, of the certificates for any Series M-7 Preferred Shares so redeemed (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Trust shall so require and the notice shall so state), such Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall be redeemed by the Trust at the Series M-7 Redemption Price. In case fewer than all the Series M-7 Preferred Shares evidenced by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate or certificates shall be issued evidencing the unredeemed Series M-7 Preferred Shares without cost to the holder thereof.
(iii) Any funds deposited with a bank or trust company for the purpose of redeeming Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall be irrevocable except that:
(A) the Trust shall be entitled to receive from such bank or trust company the interest or other earnings, if any, earned on any money so deposited in trust, and the holders of any shares redeemed shall have no claim to such interest or other earnings; and
(B) any balance of monies so deposited by the Trust and unclaimed by the holders of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares entitled thereto at the expiration of two years from the applicable Series M-7 Redemption Date shall
178
be repaid, together with any interest or other earnings earned thereon, to the Trust, and after any such repayment, the holders of the shares entitled to the funds so repaid to the Trust shall look only to the Trust for payment without interest or other earnings.
(iv) No Series M-7 Preferred Shares may be redeemed except with funds legally available for the payment of the Series M-7 Redemption Price.
(v) Unless full accumulated distributions on all Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for payment for all past Distribution Periods and the then current Distribution Period, no Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall be redeemed (unless all outstanding Series M-7 Preferred Shares are simultaneously redeemed) or purchased or otherwise acquired directly or indirectly (except by conversion into or exchange for shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking junior to the Series M-7 Preferred Shares as to distributions and upon liquidation); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent the redemption of Series M-7 Preferred Shares pursuant to Article VII of the Declaration of Trust or the purchase or acquisition of Series M-7 Preferred Shares.
(vi) If the Series M-7 Redemption Date is after a Record Date and before the related Quarterly Distribution Date, the distribution payable on such Quarterly Distribution Date shall be paid to the holder in whose name the Series M-7 Preferred Shares to be redeemed are registered at the close of business on such Record Date notwithstanding the redemption thereof between such Record Date and the related Quarterly Distribution Date or the Trusts default in the payment of the distribution due.
(vii) In case of redemption of less than all Series M-7 Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, the Series M-7 Preferred Shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata from the holders of record of such shares in proportion to the number of Series M-7 Preferred Shares held by such holders (with adjustments to avoid redemption of fractional shares) or by any other equitable method determined by the Trust.
(6) Voting Rights . Except as provided in these terms of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares, the holders of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to vote at any meeting of the shareholders for election of trustees or for any other purposes or otherwise to participate in any action taken by the Trust or the shareholders thereof, or to receive notice (except for such notice as required by law) of any meeting of shareholders.
(a) In any matter in which the Series M-7 Preferred Shares are entitled to vote (as expressly provided herein), including any action by written consent, each Series M-7 Preferred Share shall be entitled to 10 votes, each of which 10 votes may be directed separately by the holder thereof (or by any proxy or
179
proxies of such holder). With respect to each Series M-7 Preferred Share, the holder thereof may designate up to 10 proxies, with each such proxy having the right to vote a whole number of votes (totaling 10 votes per Series M-7 Preferred Share).
(b) Whenever distributions on any Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall be in arrears for six or more quarterly periods, the holders of such Series M-7 Preferred Shares, voting separately as a class with all other series of Preferred Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, will be entitled to vote for the election of two additional Trustees of the Trust at a special meeting called by the holders of record of at least ten percent (10%) of any series of Preferred Shares so in arrears (unless such request is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of the shareholders) or at the next annual meeting of shareholders, and at each subsequent annual meeting until all distributions accumulated on such Series M-7 Preferred Shares for the past distribution periods and the then current distribution period shall have been fully paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment. In such case, the entire Board of Trustees of the Trust will be increased by two Trustees.
(c) So long as any Series M-7 Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Trust will not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares outstanding at the time, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting (such series voting separately as a class), (i) authorize or create, or increase the authorized or issued amount of, any class or series of shares of beneficial interest ranking senior to the Series M-7 Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up or reclassify any authorized shares of beneficial interest of the Trust into such shares, or create, authorize or issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any such shares; or (ii) amend, alter or repeal the provisions of the Trusts Declaration of Trust or the terms of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise (an Event), so as to materially and adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares or the holders thereof; provided, however, with respect to the occurrence of any Events set forth in (ii) above, so long as the Series M-7 Preferred Shares remain outstanding with the terms thereof materially unchanged, taking into account that upon the occurrence of an Event, the Trust may not be the surviving entity or the Series M-7 Preferred Shares that remain outstanding may bear a new title, designation and/or be issued by a different issuer, the occurrence of any such Event shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of holders of Series M-7 Preferred Shares and provided further that (x) any increase in the amount of the authorized Preferred Shares or the creation or issuance of any other Series M-7 Preferred Shares, or (y) any
180
increase in the amount of authorized Series M-7 Preferred Shares or any other Preferred Shares, in each case ranking on a parity with or junior to the Series M-7 Preferred Shares with respect to payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers.
The foregoing voting provisions will not apply if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall have been redeemed or called for redemption and sufficient funds shall have been deposited in trust to effect such redemption.
(7) Conversion . Holders of Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall have the right to convert all or a portion of such shares into Common Shares, as follows:
(a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this subparagraph (7), a holder of Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall have the right, at his or her option, at any time after December 14, 2011 to convert such shares into the number of fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares obtained by dividing the aggregate liquidation preference of such shares by the Conversion Price (as in effect at the time and on the date provided for in the last paragraph of subsection (b) of this subparagraph (7)) by surrendering such shares to be converted, such surrender to be made in the manner provided in subsection (b) of this subparagraph (7); provided , however , that a holder of Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall have the right to convert such shares as provided above, at his or her option, at any time subsequent to such shares being called for redemption pursuant to subparagraph (5), which right to convert such shares upon a call for redemption shall terminate at the close of business on the fifth Business Day preceding the Series M-7 Redemption Date fixed for such redemption, unless the Trust shall default in making payment of the Common Shares and any cash payable upon such redemption under subparagraph (5) hereof, in which case the holders will retain the conversion rights provided herein, and provided further that, prior to such time as the Series M-7 Preferred Shares have been registered for resale with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and listed for trading on the NYSE or the NASDAQ National Market, the Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall be convertible in whole, but not in part, with respect to all of the outstanding Series M-7 Preferred Shares.
(b) In order to exercise the conversion right, the holder of each Series M-7 Preferred Share to be converted shall surrender the certificate representing such share, duly endorsed or assigned to the Trust or in blank, at the office of the Transfer Agent, accompanied by written notice to the Trust that the holder thereof elects to convert such Series M-7 Preferred Share delivered to the Trust by (a) fax and (b) certified mail postage prepaid or overnight delivery to: Equity Residential Properties Trust, Two North Riverside Plaza,
181
Suite 400, Chicago, Illinois 60606, Attention: Bruce C. Strohm, facsimile number (312) 454-0039. Unless the shares issuable on conversion are to be issued in the same name as the name in which such Series M-7 Preferred Share is registered, each share surrendered for conversion shall be accompanied by instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Trust, duly executed by the holder or such holders duly authorized attorney and an amount sufficient to pay any transfer or similar tax (or evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Trust demonstrating that such taxes have been paid).
Holders of Series M-7 Preferred Shares at the close of business on a distribution payment record date shall be entitled to receive the distribution payable on such shares on the corresponding Quarterly Distribution Date notwithstanding the conversion thereof following such distribution payment record date and prior to such Quarterly Distribution Date. However, Series M-7 Preferred Shares surrendered for conversion during the period between the close of business on any distribution payment record date and the opening of business on the corresponding Quarterly Distribution Date (except shares converted after the issuance of notice of redemption with respect to a Series M-7 Redemption Date during such period or coinciding with such Quarterly Distribution Date, such Series M-7 Preferred Shares being entitled to such distribution on the Quarterly Distribution Date) must be accompanied by payment of a pro rata portion of the distribution payable on such shares on such Quarterly Distribution Date equal to the product of (i) the amount of the quarterly distribution multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days beginning on the date of surrender of such Series M-7 Preferred Shares as provided in the preceding paragraph and ending on the Quarterly Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is 90. A holder of Series M-7 Preferred Shares on a distribution payment record date who (or whose transferees) tenders any such shares for conversion into Common Shares on such Quarterly Distribution Date will receive the distribution payable by the Trust on such Series M-7 Preferred Shares on such date, and the converting holder need not include payment of the amount of such distribution upon surrender of Series M-7 Preferred Shares for conversion. Except as provided above, the Trust shall make no payment or allowance for unpaid distributions, whether or not in arrears, on converted shares or for distributions on the Common Shares issued upon such conversion.
As promptly as practicable after the surrender of certificates representing Series M-7 Preferred Shares as aforesaid, the Trust shall issue and shall deliver at such office to such holder, or on his or her written order, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Common Shares issuable upon the conversion of such shares in accordance with the provisions of this subparagraph (7), and any fractional interest in respect of a Common Share arising upon such conversion shall be settled as provided in subsection (c) of this subparagraph (7).
182
Each conversion shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which the certificates for Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall have been surrendered and such notice (and if applicable, payment of an amount equal to the distribution payable on such shares) received by the Trust as aforesaid, and the person or persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for Common Shares shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the shares represented thereby at such time on such date, and such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect at such time and on such date unless the share transfer books of the Trust shall be closed on that date, in which event such person or persons shall be deemed to have become such holder or holders of record at the close of business on the next succeeding day on which such share transfer books are open, but such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect on the date on which such shares have been surrendered and such notice received by the Trust.
(c) No fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of Common Shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares. Instead of any fractional interest in a Common Share that would otherwise be deliverable upon the conversion of a share of Series M-7 Preferred Shares, the Trust shall pay to the holder of such share an amount in cash based upon the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of conversion. If more than one Series M-7 Preferred Share shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same holder, the number of full Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Series M-7 Preferred Shares so surrendered.
(d) The Conversion Price shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:
(i) If the Trust shall after the Issue Date (A) pay a distribution or make a distribution on its shares of beneficial interest in Common Shares, (B) subdivide its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, (C) combine its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (D) issue any shares of beneficial interest by reclassification of its Common Shares, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution or at the opening of business on the day following the day on which such subdivision, combination or reclassification becomes effective, as the case may be, shall be adjusted so that the holder of any Series M-7 Preferred Shares thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of Common Shares that such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above had such shares been converted immediately prior to the record date in the case of a distribution or the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification. An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (i) shall become effective immediately after the opening of
183
business on the day next following the record date (except as provided in paragraph (h) below) in the case of a distribution and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day next following the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.
(ii) If the Trust shall issue after the Issue Date rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Shares entitling them (for a period expiring within 45 days after the record date mentioned below) to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at a price per share less than the Fair Market Value per Common Share on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants, then the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the day next following such record date shall be adjusted to equal the price determined by multiplying (I) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (A) the number of Common Shares outstanding on the close of business on the date fixed for such determination and (B) the number of shares that the aggregate proceeds to the Trust from the exercise of such rights, options or warrants for Common Shares would purchase at such Fair Market Value, and the denominator of which shall be the sum of (A) the number of Common Shares outstanding on the close of business on the date fixed for such determination and (B) the number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase pursuant to such rights, options or warrants. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day next following such record date (except as provided in subsection (h) below). In determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of Common Shares to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at less than the Fair Market Value, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Trust upon issuance and upon exercise of such rights, options or warrants, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Trustees.
(iii) If the Trust shall distribute to all holders of its Common Shares any shares of beneficial interest of the Trust (other than Common Shares) or evidence of its indebtedness or assets (excluding cash distributions paid out of the total equity applicable to Common Shares, including revaluation equity, less the amount of stated capital attributable to Common Shares, determined on the basis of the most recent annual and quarterly consolidated cost basis balance sheets of the Trust and its consolidated subsidiaries available at the time of the declaration of the distribution) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those rights and warrants issued to all holders of Common Shares entitling them for a period expiring within 45 days after the record date referred to in subsection (ii) above to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares, which rights and warrants are referred to in and treated
184
under subsection (ii) above) (any of the foregoing being hereinafter in this subsection (iii) called the Securities), then in each case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying (I) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Fair Market Value per Common Share on the record date mentioned below less the then fair market value (as determined by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Trustees, whose determination shall be conclusive) of the portion of the shares of beneficial interest or assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or of such rights or warrants applicable to one Common Share, and the denominator of which shall be the Fair Market Value per Common Share on the record date mentioned below. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately at the opening of business on the Business Day next following (except as provided in subsection (h) below) the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. For the purposes of this subsection (iii), the distribution of a Security, which is distributed not only to the holders of the Common Shares on the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to such distribution of such Security, but also is distributed with each Common Share delivered to a Person converting a Series M-7 Preferred Share after such determination date, shall not require an adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this subsection (iii); provided that on the date, if any, on which a person converting a Series M-7 Preferred Share would no longer be entitled to receive such Security with a Common Share (other than as a result of the termination of all such Securities), a distribution of such Securities shall be deemed to have occurred, and the Conversion Price shall be adjusted as provided in this subsection (iii) (and such day shall be deemed to be the date fixed for the determination of the shareholders entitled to receive such distribution and the record date within the meaning of the two preceding sentences).
(iv) No adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require a cumulative increase or decrease of at least 1% in such price; provided, however , that any adjustments that by reason of this subsection (iv) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment until made; and provided, further , that any adjustment shall be required and made in accordance with the provisions of this subparagraph (7) (other than this subsection (iv)) not later than such time as may be required in order to preserve the tax-free nature of a distribution to the holders of Common Shares. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this subparagraph (7), the Trust shall not be required to make any adjustment of the Conversion Price for the issuance of any Common Shares pursuant to any plan providing for the reinvestment of distributions or interest payable on securities of the Trust and the investment of additional optional amounts in Common Shares under such plan. All calculations under this subparagraph (7) shall be made to the
185
nearest cent with ($.005 being rounded upward) or to the nearest one-tenth of a share (with .05 of a share being rounded upward), as the case may be. Anything in this subsection (d) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trust shall be entitled, to the extent permitted by law, to make such reductions in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by this subsection (d), as it in its discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any share distributions, subdivision of shares, reclassification or combination of shares, distribution of rights, options or warrants to purchase shares or securities, or a distribution of other assets (other than cash distributions) hereafter made by the Trust to its shareholders shall not be taxable.
(e) If the Trust shall be a party to any transaction (including, without limitation, a merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, self tender offer for all or substantially all of the Common Shares, sale of all or substantially all of the Trusts assets or recapitalization of the Common Shares and excluding any transaction as to which subsection (d)(i) of this subparagraph (7) applied) (each of the foregoing being referred to herein as a Transaction), in each case as a result of which Common Shares shall be converted into the right to receive shares, stock, securities or other property (including cash or any combination thereof), each Series M-7 Preferred Share which is not converted into the right to receive shares, stock, securities or other property in connection with such Transaction shall thereafter be convertible into the kind and amount of shares, stock, securities and other property (including cash or any combination thereof) receivable upon the consummation of such Transaction by a holder of that number of Common Shares into which one Series M-7 Preferred Share was convertible immediately prior to such Transaction, assuming such holder of Common Shares (i) is not a Person with which the Trust consolidated or into which the Trust merged or which merged into the Trust or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (a Constituent Person), or an affiliate of a Constituent Person and (ii) failed to exercise his or her rights of the election, if any, as to the kind or amount of shares, stock, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction (provided that if the kind or amount of shares, stock, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction is not the same for each Common Share of the Trust held immediately prior to such Transaction by other than a Constituent Person or an affiliate thereof and in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised (the Non-Electing Share), then for purposes of this paragraph (e) the kind and amount of shares, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction by each Non-Electing Share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-Electing Shares). The Trust shall not be a party to any Transaction unless the terms of such Transaction are consistent with the provisions of this subsection (e), and it shall not consent or agree to the occurrence of any Transaction until the Trust has entered into an agreement with the successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, for the benefit of the holders of the Series M-7 Preferred
186
Shares that will contain provisions enabling the holders of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares that remain outstanding after such Transaction to convert into the consideration received by holders of Common Shares at the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Transaction. The provisions of this subsection (e) shall similarly apply to successive Transactions.
(f) If:
(i) the Trust shall declare a distribution on the Common Shares (other than in cash out of the total equity applicable to Common Shares, including revaluation equity, less the amount of stated capital attributable to Common Shares, determined on the basis of the most recent annual and quarterly consolidated cost basis balance sheets of the Trust and its consolidated subsidiaries available at the time of the declaration of the distribution); or
(ii) the Trust shall authorize the granting to the holders of the Common Shares of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of any class or any other rights or warrants; or
(iii) there shall be any reclassifications of the Common Shares (other than an event to which subsection (d)(i) of this subparagraph (7) applied) or any consolidation or merger to which the Trust is a party and for which approval of any shareholders of the Trust is required, or a statutory share exchange involving the conversion or exchange of Common Shares into securities or other property, or a self tender offer by the Trust for all or substantially all of its outstanding Common Shares, or the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Trust as an entity and for which approval of any stockholder of the Trust is required; or
(iv) there shall occur the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust, then the Trust shall cause to be filed with the Transfer Agent and shall cause to be mailed to the holders of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares at their addresses as shown on the share records of the Trust, as promptly as possible, but at least 15 days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (A) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such distribution or rights or warrants, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Shares of record to be entitled to such distribution or rights or warrants are to be determined or (B) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory share exchange, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding up is expected to become effective, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for securities or other property, if any, deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, statutory share exchange, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution or winding up. Failure
187
to give or receive such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the proceedings described in this subparagraph (7).
(g) Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted as herein provided, the Trust shall promptly file with the Transfer Agent and the Depository an officers certificate setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment, which certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment absent manifest error. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Trust shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Price setting forth the adjusted Conversion Price and the effective date such adjustment becomes effective and shall mail such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Price to the holder of each Series M-7 Preferred Share at such holders last address as shown on the share records of the Trust.
(h) In any case in which subsection (d) of this subparagraph (7) provides that an adjustment shall become effective on the date next following the record date for an event, the Trust may defer until the occurrence of such event (A) issuing to the holder of any Series M-7 Preferred Shares converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the Common Shares issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and (B) fractionalizing any Series M-7 Preferred Share and/or paying to such holder any amount of cash in lieu of any fraction pursuant to subsection (c) of this subparagraph (7).
(i) There shall be no adjustment of the Conversion Price in case of the issuance of any shares of beneficial interest of the Trust in a reorganization, acquisition or other similar transaction except as specifically set forth in this subparagraph (7). If any action or Transaction would require adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to more than one subsection of this subparagraph (7), only one adjustment shall be made, and such adjustment shall be the amount of adjustment that has the highest absolute value.
(j) If the Trust shall take any action affecting the Common Shares, other than action described in this subparagraph (7), that in the opinion of the Board of Trustees would materially adversely affect the conversion rights of the holders of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares, the Conversion Price for the Series M-7 Preferred Shares may be adjusted, to the extent permitted by law, in such manner, if any, and at such time, as the Board of Trustees, in its sole discretion, may determine to be equitable in the circumstances.
(k) The Trust covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but issued Common Shares, for the purpose of affecting conversion of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares, the full number of Common Shares deliverable
188
upon the conversion of all outstanding Series M-7 Preferred Shares not theretofore converted. For purposes of this subsection (k), the number of Common Shares that shall be deliverable upon the conversion of all outstanding Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall be computed as if at the time of computation all such outstanding shares were held by a single holder.
The Trust covenants that any Common Shares issued upon conversion of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Price below the then-par value of the Common Shares deliverable upon conversion of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares, the Trust will take any action that, in the opinion of its counsel, may be necessary in order that the Trust may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Common Shares at such adjusted Conversion Price.
The Trust shall endeavor to list the Common Shares required to be delivered upon conversion of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares, prior to such delivery, upon each national securities exchange, if any, upon which the outstanding Common Shares are listed at the time of such delivery.
Prior to the delivery of any securities that the Trust shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares, the Trust shall endeavor to comply with all federal and state laws and regulations thereunder requiring the registration of such securities with, or any approval of or consent to the delivery thereof by any governmental authority.
(l) The Trust will pay any and all documentary stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes payable in respect of the issue or delivery of Common Shares or other securities or property on conversion of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares pursuant hereto; provided, however , that the Trust shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of Common Shares or other securities or property in a name other than that of title holder of the Series M-7 Preferred Shares to be converted, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Trust the amount of any such tax or established, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trust, that such tax has been paid.
(m) In addition to the foregoing adjustments, the Company will be permitted to make such reductions in the Conversion Price as it considers to be advisable in order that any event treated for federal income tax purposes as a dividend of stock or stock rights will not be taxable to the holders of the Common Shares.

(4) Distributions . (a) The holders of the then outstanding Series N Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the Board of Trustees and declared by the Trust out of any funds legally available therefor, cumulative distributions at the rate of $16.20 per share per year, payable in equal amounts of $4.05 per share quarterly in arrears in cash on the fifteenth day, or if not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, of January, April, July and October in each year (each such day being hereinafter called a Quarterly Distribution Date and each period ending on a Quarterly Distribution Date being hereinafter called a Distribution Period), beginning on October 15, 2003, to shareholders of record at the close of business on the first day of the calendar month in which such Quarterly Distribution Date falls or such other date as shall be fixed by the Board of Trustees at the time of declaration of the distribution (the Record Date), which shall not be less than 10 nor more than 45 days preceding the Quarterly Distribution Date. The amount of any distribution payable for the initial Distribution Period and for any other Distribution Period shorter than or longer than a Distribution Period shall be prorated and computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Distributions on each Series N Preferred Share shall accrue and be cumulative from the date of original issue thereof, whether or not (i) distributions on such shares are earned or declared or (ii) on any Quarterly Distribution Date there shall be funds legally available for the payment of distributions. Distributions paid on the Series N Preferred Shares in an amount less than the total amount of such distributions at the time accrued and payable on such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a per share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding. Accrued but unpaid distributions on the Series N Preferred Shares will not bear interest and holders of the Series N Preferred Shares will not be entitled to any distributions in excess of full cumulative distributions as described herein.
193
Any distribution payment made on the Series N Preferred Shares shall first be credited against the earliest accrued but unpaid distribution due with respect to such shares which remains payable.
(b) The amount of any distributions accrued on any Series N Preferred Shares at any Quarterly Distribution Date shall be the amount of any unpaid distributions accumulated thereon, to and including such Quarterly Distribution Date, whether or not earned or declared, and the amount of distributions accrued on any Series N Preferred Shares at any date other than a Quarterly Distribution Date shall be equal to the sum of the amount of any unpaid distributions accumulated thereon, to and including the last preceding Quarterly Distribution Date, whether or not earned or declared, plus an amount calculated on the basis of the annual distribution rate of $16.20 for the period after such last preceding Quarterly Distribution Date to and including the date as of which the calculation is made based on a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
(c) In determining whether a distribution (other than upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation), by dividend, redemption or other acquisition of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust or otherwise, is permitted under Maryland law, amounts that would be needed, if the Trust were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders of Series N Preferred Shares will not be added to the Trusts total liabilities.
(d) Except as provided in the Series N Articles Supplementary, the Series N Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to participate in the earnings or assets of the Trust.
(e) If, for any taxable year, the Trust elects to designate as capital gain dividends (as defined in Section 857 of the Code), any portion (the Capital Gains Amount) of the total dividends (within the meaning of the Code) paid (or treated as paid for federal income tax purposes) in such taxable year to holders of all classes of capital stock (the Total Dividends), then the portion of the Capital Gains Amount that shall be allocable to holders of Series N Preferred Shares shall be the Capital Gains Amount multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the total dividends paid (or treated as paid for federal income tax purposes) to the holders of the Series N preferred shares for the taxable year and the denominator of which shall be the Total Dividends.
(f) So long as any Series N Preferred Shares are outstanding, no distributions, except as described in the immediately following sentence, shall be declared or paid or set apart for payment on any class or series of Parity Shares for any period unless full cumulative distributions have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for such payment on the Series N Preferred Shares for all Distribution Periods terminating on or prior to the distribution payment date for such class or series of Parity Shares. When distributions are not paid in full or a sum sufficient for such payment is not set apart, as aforesaid, all distributions declared upon Series N Preferred Shares and all distributions declared upon any other class or series of Parity Shares shall be declared ratably in proportion to the respective amounts of distributions accumulated and unpaid on the Series N Preferred Shares and accumulated and unpaid on such Parity Shares.
(g) No distributions on Series N Preferred Shares shall be authorized by the Board of Trustees or be paid or set apart for payment by the Trust at such time as the terms and provisions of any agreement of the Trust, including any agreement relating to its indebtedness, prohibits such
194
authorization , payment or setting apart for payment or provides that such authorization, payment or setting apart for payment would constitute a breach thereof or a default thereunder, or if such authorization or payment shall be restricted or prohibited by law.
(5) Liquidation Rights .
(a) Upon the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Trust, the holders of the Series N Preferred Shares then outstanding shall be entitled to receive and to be paid out of the assets of the Trust available for distribution to its shareholders, before any payment or distribution shall be made on any Junior Shares, the amount of $250.00 per Series N Preferred Share, plus accrued and unpaid distributions thereon.
(b) After the payment to the holders of the Series N Preferred Shares of the full preferential amounts provided for in this paragraph B, the holders of the Series N Preferred Shares as such shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Trust.
(c) If, upon any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of the Trust, the amounts payable with respect to the preference value of the Series N Preferred Shares and any other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking as to any such distribution on a parity with the Series N Preferred Shares are not paid in full, the holders of the Series N Preferred Shares and of such other shares will share ratably in any such distribution of assets of the Trust in proportion to the full respective preference amounts to which they are entitled.
(d) Neither the sale, lease, transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all the property or business of the Trust, nor the merger or consolidation of the Trust into or with any other entity or the merger or consolidation of any other entity into or with the Trust, shall be deemed to be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, for the purposes of this paragraph B.
(6) Redemption .
(a) Optional Redemption . The Series N Preferred Shares shall not be redeemable by the Trust prior to June 19, 2008. On and after June 19, 2008 the Trust may, at its option, redeem at any time all or, from time to time, part of the Series N Preferred Shares at a price per share (the Series N Redemption Price), payable in cash, of $250.00 per Series N Preferred Share, together with all accrued and unpaid distributions to and including the date fixed for redemption (the Series N Redemption Date), without interest, to the extent the Trust has funds legally available for redemption.
(b) Procedures for Redemption .
(i) Notice of any redemption will be mailed by the Trust, postage prepaid, or sent via overnight delivery service, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Series N Redemption Date, addressed to the holders of record of the Series N Preferred Shares to be redeemed at their addresses as they appear on the share transfer records of the Trust. No failure to give such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Series N Preferred Shares except as to the holder to
195
whom the Trust has failed to give notice or except as to the holder to whom notice was defective. In addition to any information required by law or by the applicable rules of any exchange upon which Series N Preferred Shares may be listed or admitted to trading, such notice shall state: (A) the Series N Redemption Date; (B) the Series N Redemption Price; (C) the number of Series N Preferred Shares to be redeemed; (D) the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the Series N Redemption Price; and (E) that distributions on the shares to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on the Series N Redemption Date.
(ii) If notice has been mailed in accordance with subparagraph (5)(b)(i) above and provided that on or before the Series N Redemption Date specified in such notice all funds necessary for such redemption shall have been irrevocably set aside by the Trust, separate and apart from its other funds for the pro rata benefit of the holders of the Series N Preferred Shares so called for redemption, so as to be, and to continue to be available therefor, then, from and after the Series N Redemption Date (unless the Trust defaults in the payment of the Series N Redemption Price), distributions on the Series N Preferred Shares so called for redemption shall cease to accumulate, and said shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and shall not have the status of Series N Preferred Shares and all rights of the holders thereof as shareholders of the Trust (except the right to receive the Series N Redemption Price) shall cease. Upon surrender, in accordance with said notice, of the certificates for any certificated Series N Preferred Shares so redeemed (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Trust shall so require and the notice shall so state), such Series N Preferred Shares shall be redeemed by the Trust at the Series N Redemption Price. In case fewer than all the Series N Preferred Shares evidenced by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate or certificates shall be issued evidencing the unredeemed Series N Preferred Shares without cost to the holder thereof.
(iii) Any funds deposited with a bank or trust company for the purpose of redeeming Series N Preferred Shares shall be irrevocable except that:
(A) the Trust shall be entitled to receive from such bank or trust company the interest or other earnings, if any, earned on any money so deposited in trust, and the holders of any shares redeemed shall have no claim to such interest or other earnings; and
(B) any balance of monies so deposited by the Trust and unclaimed by the holders of the Series N Preferred Shares entitled thereto at the expiration of two years from the applicable Series N Redemption Date shall be repaid, together with any interest or other earnings earned thereon, to the Trust, subject to escheat laws, and after any such repayment, the holders of the shares entitled to the funds so repaid to the Trust shall look only to the Trust for payment without interest or other earnings.
(iv) No Series N Preferred Shares may be redeemed except with funds legally available for the payment of the Series N Redemption Price.
(v) Unless full accumulated distributions on all Series N Preferred Shares shall have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a
196
sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for payment for all past Distribution Periods and the then current Distribution Period, no Series N Preferred Shares shall be redeemed (unless all outstanding Series N Preferred Shares are simultaneously redeemed) or purchased or otherwise acquired directly or indirectly (except by conversion into or exchange for shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking junior to the Series N Preferred Shares as to distributions and upon liquidation); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent the redemption of Series N Preferred Shares pursuant to Article VII of the Declaration of Trust or the purchase or acquisition of Series N Preferred Shares pursuant to a purchase or exchange offer made on the same terms to holders of all outstanding Series N Preferred Shares.
(vi) If the Series N Redemption Date is after a Record Date and before the related Quarterly Distribution Date, the distribution payable on such Quarterly Distribution Date shall be paid on the Series N Redemption Date to the holder in whose name the Series N Preferred Shares to be redeemed are registered at the close of business on such Record Date notwithstanding the redemption thereof between such Record Date and the related Quarterly Distribution Date or the Trusts default in the payment of the distribution due.
(vii) In case of redemption of less than all Series N Preferred Shares at the time outstanding, the Series N Preferred Shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata from the holders of record of such shares in proportion to the number of Series N Preferred Shares held by such holders (with adjustments to avoid redemption of fractional shares) or by any other equitable method determined by the Trust. If fewer than all the Series N Preferred Shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, then new certificates representing the unredeemed shares shall be issued without charges to the holder thereof.
(7) Voting Rights . Except as required by law and as provided in the Series N Articles Supplementary, the holders of the Series N Preferred Shares shall not be entitled to vote at any meeting of the shareholders for election of trustees or for any other purposes or otherwise to participate in any action taken by the Trust or the shareholders thereof, or to receive notice (except for such notice as required by law) of any meeting of shareholders.
(a) In any matter in which the Series N Preferred Shares are entitled to vote (as expressly provided herein), including any action by written consent, each Series N Preferred Share shall be entitled to 10 votes, each of which 10 votes may be directed separately by the holder thereof (or by any proxy or proxies of such holder). With respect to each Series N Preferred Share, the holder thereof may designate up to 10 proxies, with each such proxy having the right to vote a whole number of votes (totaling 10 votes per Series N Preferred Share).
(b) Whenever distributions on any Series N Preferred Shares shall be in arrears for six or more quarterly periods, the holders of such Series N Preferred Shares, voting separately as a class with all other series of Preferred Shares upon which like voting rights have been conferred and are exercisable, will be entitled to vote for the election of two additional Trustees of the Trust at a special meeting called by the holders of record of at least ten percent (10%) of any series of Preferred Shares so in arrears (or such other number of holders as may be specifically provided for in the terms establishing the voting powers of such series and unless such request is received less than 90 days before the date fixed for the next annual or special meeting of the shareholders) or at the next annual meeting of shareholders, and at each subsequent annual meeting
197
until all distributions accumulated on such Series N Preferred Shares for the past distribution periods and the then current distribution period shall have been fully paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set aside for payment. In such case, the entire Board of Trustees of the Trust will be increased by two Trustees.
(c) So long as any Series N Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Trust will not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Series N Preferred Shares outstanding at the time, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting (such series voting separately as a class), (i) authorize or create, or increase the authorized or issued amount of, any class or series of shares of beneficial interest ranking senior to the Series N Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of distributions or to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Trust or reclassify any authorized shares of beneficial interest of the Trust into such shares, or create, authorize or issue any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing the right to purchase any such shares; or (ii) amend, alter or repeal the provisions of the Declaration of Trust or the Series N Articles Supplementary, as such Articles Supplementary may be amended from time to time, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise (an Event), so as to materially and adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Series N Preferred Shares or the holders thereof; provided, however, with respect to the occurrence of any of the Events set forth in (ii) above, so long as the Series N Preferred Shares remain outstanding with the terms thereof materially unchanged, taking into account that upon the occurrence of an Event, the Trust may not be the surviving entity or the Series N Preferred Shares that remain outstanding may bear a new title, designation and/or be issued by a different issuer, the occurrence of any such Event shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of holders of Series N Preferred Shares and provided further that (x) any increase in the amount of the authorized Preferred Shares or the creation or issuance of any other Preferred Shares, or (y) any increase in the amount of authorized Series N Preferred Shares or any other Preferred Shares, in each case ranking on a parity with or junior to the Series N Preferred Shares with respect to payment of distributions or the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers.
The foregoing voting provisions will not apply if, at or prior to the time when the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required shall be effected, all outstanding Series N Preferred Shares shall have been redeemed or called for redemption and sufficient funds shall have been deposited in trust to effect such redemption.
(8) Conversion . The Series N Preferred Shares are not convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or securities of the Trust, except into Excess Shares in connection with maintaining the ability of the Trust to qualify as a REIT.
(9) Status of Redeemed or Reacquired Shares . All Series N Preferred Shares that have been issued and redeemed or reacquired in any manner by the Trust shall become unclassified Preferred Shares available for subsequent reclassification and issuance.

Special Triggering Event shall mean either (i) the redemption or purchase by the Trust of all or a portion of the outstanding shares of beneficial interest in the Trust, or (ii) a change in the value of the Series N Preferred Shares relative to any other class of beneficial interest in the Trust.
(2) Special Triggering Event . If during the period commencing on the Closing Date of the Series N Preferred Shares Offering and prior to the Restriction Termination Date, a Special Triggering Event (if effective) or other event or occurrence (if effective) would result in any violation of section 7.2(a) of the Declaration of Trust (or would result in the Trust being closely held within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Code or would otherwise cause the Trust to fail to qualify as a REIT), then (i) the number of Series N Preferred Shares (rounded up to the nearest whole share) that would (but for this section) cause any Person to Beneficially Own either Series N Preferred Shares, or to Beneficially Own Series N Preferred Shares and any other shares of beneficial interest in the Trust, in violation of section 7.2(a) of the Declaration of Trust (or would result in the Trust being closely held or otherwise fail to qualify as a REIT) shall constitute Excess Shares and shall be treated as provided in Article VII of the Declaration of Trust. Such designation and treatment shall be effective as of the close of business on the Business Day prior to the date of the Special Triggering Event or other event or occurrence.

NOW THEREFORE, the Plan is further amended as follows:
AMENDMENTS
1. Section 3 (b) of the Plan is hereby deleted in its entirely and the following Section 3 (b) is substituted therefor:
(b) Board of Trustees . Each member of the Board of Trustees (excluding the Chairman of the Board and the employee trustees) will receive an annual award (relating to the Trustees term as Trustee for the one-year period following the subsequent shareholders meeting at which trustees are elected) of Share Awards and Options equal to $50,000 in value on the same day as the annual grant of Share Awards and Options to the Companys executive officers. The annual $50,000 award will be allocated between Options (valued by using the same valuation criteria utilized by the Committee in its employee option grants made as of the same date) and Share Awards (valued at the closing price of the Companys common shares on the date of grant), in the same ratio as approved by the Committee for the annual long term incentive awards to the Companys executive officers.

the subsequent shareholders meeting. If an individual first becomes a Trustee following the annual grant, the Trustee will receive a grant of Share Awards and Options in the same ratio as the prior annual Trustees grant equal to $50,000 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days left in said one year Trustee term from the date of such Trustees election or appointment to the Board of Trustees, until the anniversary of the immediately preceding shareholders meeting at which trustees were re-elected, and the denominator of which is 365.

3. Section 6 (e) (iii) is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following 6 (e) (iii) is substituted therefor, to be effective as of February 21, 2002:
with respect to a Grantee who is a member of the Board (excluding employee trustees and the Companys Chairman of the Board) in connection with his or her retirement at or after age 70, the Boards decision not to renominate him or her for re-election to the Board at any shareholders meeting at which Trustees are elected, or the failure to be re-elected to the Board at any such shareholders meeting, or the Trustees resignation from the Board by reason of either: (i) a material change in the Trustees employment or job responsibilities; or (ii) the Trustees disability, in which case it shall be exercisable until its Expiration Date.

Exhibit 10.18
FORM OF 2005
EQUITY RESIDENTIAL
PERFORMANCE BASED UNIT AWARD GRANT AGREEMENT
ARTICLE 1
ESTABLISHMENT
1.1. Pursuant to the terms of this Grant Agreement(1) (Grant), effective as of January 1, 2005 (Grant Date), the undersigned Participant, intending to be legally bound, hereby accepts a Performance Unit Award (Award) of Units (as defined below) from Equity Residential (Trust) in accordance with the terms of the Trusts 2002 Share Incentive Plan (the Plan). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the actual number of Units provided under the Award shall be determined under Article 3. The purpose of the Award is to promote the overall financial objectives of the Trust and its shareholders by linking the financial interests of the Participant to the achievement of long-term growth in shareholder equity in the Trust and by enabling the Trust to retain the services of those individuals who are instrumental in achieving this growth.
ARTICLE 2
SHARES SUBJECT TO GRANT
2.1. Description of Units . For purposes of this Grant, a Unit shall consist of the measurement of the number of common shares of beneficial interest (Shares) that will be issued by the Trust to the Participant upon the satisfaction of the criteria in this Grant. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Participant shall have no property or ownership interest with respect to a Unit and, accordingly, a Unit may not be assigned or transferred to any person other than to the estate of a Participant upon his or her death.
2.2. Restrictions on Shares . Shares issued in conjunction with this Award shall be subject to the terms and conditions specified herein and to such other terms, conditions and restrictions as may be required under the terms of the Plan and applicable law. The Trust shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates for Shares or Units, cash or other property prior to the satisfaction of the performance criteria associated with the Award and any applicable income tax withholding obligation. The Trust may cause any certificate for any Shares to be delivered to be properly marked with a legend or other notation reflecting the limitations on transfer of such Shares as provided in this Grant, applicable securities law or as the Committee may otherwise require. The Committee may require the Participant to make such representations and furnish such information as it may consider appropriate in connection with the issuance or delivery of the Shares in
(1) For purposes of this Grant, any capitalized terms which are undefined in this Grant shall have the meaning given to such term under the provisions of the Equity Residential 2002 Share Incentive Plan, of which this Grant shall be considered a part.
compliance with applicable law or otherwise. Fractional Shares shall not be delivered, but shall be rounded to the next highest whole number of Shares with appropriate payment for such fractional Shares as shall reasonably be determined by the Committee.
2.3. Shareholder Rights . No person shall have any rights of a shareholder as to Shares or Units subject to a Award until, after proper conversion of the Units relating to the Award or other action required, such Shares shall have been recorded on the Trusts official shareholder records as having been issued or transferred. Upon conversion of the Units relating to the Award (or any portion thereof) and the satisfaction of the requirements for issuance of the Shares to the Participant, the Trust will have ten (10) days in which to issue the Shares, and the Participant will not be treated as a shareholder for any purpose whatsoever prior to such issuance. No adjustment shall be made for cash dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such Shares are recorded as issued or transferred in the Trusts official shareholder records, except as provided herein or any subsequent written agreement.
ARTICLE 3
AWARDS
3.1. Value of Units Granted Under the Award . The Units granted under the Award shall have no initial value.
3.2. Adjustment of Number of Units Granted Under Award . Except as specifically indicated below, if the Participant is not employed by the Trust or a Subsidiary of the Trust during the entire period from the Grant Date to the third annual anniversary thereof (the Third Anniversary), the Participants total number of Units will be zero. Otherwise, the total number of Units actually issued under the Award will be determined as of the Third Anniversary in accordance with the following:
Any fractional or partial Units will be rounded to the next highest whole number. The percentages set forth above serve as measurement guidelines. Accordingly, if the Trusts Average Annual Return exceeds the Average T-Note Rate by an amount which falls between any of the percentages sets forth in this Section 3.2 in excess of 2%, the Participants award will be determined by extrapolation by multiplying the Award on a pro-rata basis by a percentage which directly corresponds to the Trusts actual Average Annual Return based upon the guidelines set forth above.
2
For example, if the Trusts Average Annual Return exceeds the Average T-Note Rate by 2.5% for the three-year period, the Participants initial number of Units will be multiplied by 107.5%.
3.3. Definitions . The Average Annual Return will be expressed as an annual percentage (i.e., the average of the 2005, 2006 and 2007 calendar years) utilizing the sum of the following two numbers: (i) the average of the Common Share dividends paid or declared during each calendar year as a percentage of the closing price of a Share as of January 3, 2005 - the first business day in January, 2005 (i.e. $35.45); and (ii) the average percentage change in Funds from Operation as announced by the Trust (FFO) calculated for each calendar year per Share over the prior calendar year. In the event of a change in the Trusts calculation of FFO, the Trust shall calculate the percentage change in FFO on a consistent basis most favorable to the Participant. The Average T-Note Rate will be expressed as an annual percentage (i.e., the average of the 2005, 2006 and 2007 calendar years) utilizing the 10-year Treasury Note interest rate as of the first business day in January of each calendar year.
3.4. Conversion of Awards . On the Third Anniversary, the final number of Units granted pursuant to this Award (if any) will be converted into Shares that are subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 4.3 (Restricted Shares). The number of Units which convert shall equal the number of Restricted Shares to be received by the Participant upon conversion.
3.5. Conversion of Units Upon Death, Disability, Retirement or Change in Control . Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the Participants termination of employment with the Trust or any Subsidiary prior to the Valuation Date due to Death, Disability or retirement at or after age 62, the greater of: (i) the number of Units initially granted under the Award or (ii) the number of Units a Participant would receive pursuant to Section 3.2 calculated as of said date; shall become fully convertible into fully vested, non-restricted Shares. Furthermore, in the event of a Change in Control prior to the Valuation Date, 225% of the Units initially granted under the Award shall become fully convertible into fully vested non-restricted Shares as of said Date.
ARTICLE 4
RESTRICTED SHARES
4.1. General . Upon the Third Anniversary, the Trust shall issue Shares to the Participant in an amount equal to the number of Units determined under Section 3.2, provided the Participant remains employed by the Trust or a Subsidiary of the Trust on such date. Fifty percent of the Shares shall vest immediately upon the Third Anniversary and 50% of the Shares shall be issued as Restricted Shares. Thereafter, 50% of the total number of Restricted Shares shall vest upon each subsequent anniversary of the Grant Date provided the Participant remains employed by the Trust or a Subsidiary of the Trust on such date (the Restriction Period).
4.2. Awards and Certificates . Upon conversion of the Units granted under Section 3.2, the Participant shall be issued a certificate for the number of his or her Restricted Shares. Such certificate shall be registered in the name of the Participant and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Shares. The Committee may require that the certificates evidencing Restricted Shares be held in custody by the
3
Trust until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed and that, as a condition of any award of Restricted Shares, the Participant shall have delivered a stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to the Shares covered by such Award.
4.3. Terms and Conditions . Restricted Shares shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a) Limitations on Transferability . Subject to the provisions of the Plan and Section 4.3(b), during the vesting period described in Section 4.1, the Participant shall not be permitted to sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber any unvested interest in the Restricted Shares.
(b) Rights . Except as provided in Section 4.3(a), the Participant shall have, with respect to the Restricted Shares, all of the rights of a shareholder of the Trust holding the class of Shares that is the subject of the Restricted Shares, including, but not limited to, the right to vote the Shares, the right to receive any dividends on the Shares or tender the Shares pursuant to a tender offer extended to all shareholders of the Trust.
(c) Acceleration . Based on service, performance by the Participant or by the Trust, including any division or department for which the Participant is employed, or such other factors or criteria as the Committee may determine, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for the lapse of restrictions in installments and may accelerate the vesting of all or any part of any Award and waive the restrictions for all or any part of such Award.
(d) Forfeiture . The restrictions shall lapse and the Participant shall be fully vested in the Restricted Shares if during the Restricted Period: (i) a Change in Control of the Company occurs; or (ii) in the event of the Participants termination of employment with the Trust or any Subsidiary due to Death, Disability, or retirement at or after age 62. Upon a Participants termination of employment for any other reason during the Restriction Period (excluding a termination of employment following a Change in Control), all Restricted Shares shall be forfeited by the Participant, except the Committee shall have the sole discretion to waive in whole or in part any or all remaining restrictions with respect to any or all of the Participants Restricted Shares.
(e) Delivery . If and when the Restriction Period expires without a prior forfeiture of the Restricted Shares subject to such Restriction Period, unlegended certificates (except for legends relating to applicable securities laws) for such Shares shall be delivered to the Participant.
ARTICLE 5
MISCELLANEOUS
5.1. Amendments and Termination . This Grant may be amended, altered or discontinued upon subsequent written agreement executed by the Committee and the Participant. However, no amendment, alteration or discontinuation shall be made which would (a) impair the rights of a
4
Participant under this Grant without the Participants consent, except such an amendment made to cause the Plan to qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 of the Act or (b) disqualify the Plan from the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3. In addition, no such amendment shall be made without the approval of the Trusts shareholders to the extent such approval is required by law or agreement.
5.2. General Provisions .
(a) Withholding . No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includible in the gross income of the Participant for Federal income tax purposes with respect to any Award, the Participant shall pay to the Trust (or other entity identified by the Committee), or make arrangements satisfactory to the Trust or other entity identified by the Committee regarding the payment of, any Federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such amount required in order for the Trust or an Affiliate to obtain a current deduction. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, withholding obligations may be settled with Shares, including Shares that are part of the Award that gives rise to the withholding requirement, provided that any applicable requirements under Section 16 of the Act are satisfied. The obligations of the Trust under the Plan shall be conditional on such payment or arrangements, and the Trust or any Subsidiary of the Trust shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment otherwise due to the Participant.
(b) Designation of Representative . Pursuant to a form provided by the Committee, a Participant shall designate a beneficiary (Beneficiary) to whom any amounts payable in the event of the Participants death are to be paid.
(c) Controlling Law . This Grant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland (other than its law respecting choice of law) to the extent not governed by Federal law. The Grant shall be construed to comply with all applicable law and to avoid liability to the Trust or the Participant, including, without limitation, liability under Section 16(b) of the Act.
(d) Fail Safe . If the Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Act, transactions under this Grant will comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3 or Rule 16a-l(c)(3), as applicable. To the extent any provision of the Grant or action by the Committee fails to so comply, it shall be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Committee. Moreover, in the event this Grant does not include a provision required by Rule 16b-3 or Rule 16a-1 (c)(3) to be stated herein, such provision (other than one relating to eligibility requirements or the price and amount of Awards) shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Grant with respect to the Participant.
5.3. No Rights with Respect to Continuance of Employment . Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to alter the relationship between the Trust or a Subsidiary of the Trust and the Participant, or the contractual relationship between a Participant and the Trust or a Subsidiary of the Trust (written or otherwise) regarding such relationship. Nothing contained herein shall be
5
construed to constitute a contract of employment between the Trust or a Subsidiary of the Trust and the Participant. The Trust or a Subsidiary of the Trust and the Participant continues to have the right to terminate the employment or service relationship at any time for any reason, except as provided in a written contract. The Trust or a Subsidiary of the Trust shall have no obligation to retain the Participant in its employ or service as a result of this Grant. There shall be no inference as to the length of employment or service hereby, and the Trust or a Subsidiary of the Trust reserves the same rights to terminate the Participants employment or service as existed prior to the individuals becoming a Participant in the Plan.
5.4. Delay . If at the time the Participant incurs a termination of employment (other than due to Cause) or if at the time of a Change in Control, the Participant is subject to short-swing liability under Section 16(b) of the Act, any time period provided for under the Plan or the Grant to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of liability shall be suspended and delayed during the period the Participant would be subject to such liability, but not more than six (6) months and one (1) day. The Trust shall have the right to suspend or delay any time period described in the Plan or this Grant if the Committee shall determine that the action may constitute a violation of any law or result in liability under any law to the Trust, a Subsidiary of the Trust or a shareholder of the Trust until such time as the action required or permitted shall not constitute a violation of law or result in liability to the Trust, a Subsidiary of the Trust or a shareholder of the Trust. The Committee shall have the discretion to suspend the application of the provisions of the Plan required solely to comply with Rule 16b-3 if the Committee shall determine that Rule 16b-3 does not apply to this Grant.
5.5. Headings . The headings contained in this Grant are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Grant.
5.6. Severability . If any provision of this Grant shall for any reason be held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not effect any other provision hereby, and this Grant shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted.
5.7. Successors and Assigns . This Grant shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each successor and assign of the Trust. All obligations imposed upon a Participant, and all rights granted to the Trust hereunder, shall be binding upon the Participants heirs, legal representatives and successors.
6
5.8. Entire Grant . The Plan and this Grant constitute the entire agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, provided that in the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and the Grant, the terms and conditions of this Plan shall control unless specific contrary reference has been made in this Grant.

Exhibit 10.22
FIRST AMENDMENT TO
AMENDED AND RESTATED COMPENSATION AGREEMENT
THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED COMPENSATION AGREEMENT (Agreement) is entered into this 3 rd day of February, 2005 by and between Samuel Zell (Chairman) and Equity Residential (Company), a Maryland real estate investment trust.
WHEREAS , the Chairman has served as Chairman of the Companys Board of Trustees since 1993;
WHEREAS , in recognition of the extraordinary services previously rendered by Chairman and to give Chairman incentive to continue rendering such services, the Company and the Chairman entered into an Amended and Restated Compensation Agreement dated March 5, 2003 (the 2003 Agreement); and
WHEREAS, the Company and the Chairman desire to amend the 2003 Agreement to provide for an extension of the 2003 Agreement for a two-year period.
NOW, THEREFORE , in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the payment and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree to amend the 2003 Agreement as follows:
1. Chairmans Compensation . There is hereby added to Paragraph A of Section I of the 2003 Agreement, the following:
A. In each of the months of February 2005 and February 2006, for services rendered during the calendar year preceding the date of grant, the Company shall grant Chairman share options in the Company (the Share Options Grant) and restricted common shares of Company stock (the Restricted Shares Grant) having a combined total dollar value of $3,250,000. The February 2005 grant, in the amount of $3,250,000, shall be allocated 25% to the Share Options Grant and 75% to the Restricted Shares Grant.
The February 2006 grant of $3,250,000 shall be allocated between the Share Options Grant and Restricted Shares Grant in the same ratio as approved by the Companys Board of Trustees for the annual long-term incentive grants to the Companys executive officers; provided, however, if the Chief Executive Officer and the other executive officers do not all receive the same relative allocation of Share Options Grant and Restricted Shares Grant, Chairmans relative allocation shall be the same as that of the Chief Executive Officer.
2. Companys Plan . The Company represents to Chairman that it has adopted a successor Plan, the 2002 Share Incentive Plan, and that there shall always be sufficient Shares under such Plan available for issuance to cover the potential awards to
Chairman.
