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 Class A 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 Class A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the Trust Managers and declared by the Trust out of any funds legally available therefor, cumulative distributions at the rate of 2% of $35.00 per Class A Preferred Share (as equitably adjusted to reflect any stock split, subdivision, combination or similar event) per share per year (the “ Class A Preferred Amount ”). Distributions paid on the Class A 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. Unless the full Class A Preferred Amount shall have been or contemporaneously is declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof is set apart for payment, no dividends or distributions shall be declared or paid or set aside for payment nor shall any other dividend or distribution be declared or made upon the Common Shares or any Junior Shares (except for any dividends or distributions declared prior to the date hereof).

Except as provided in this Statement, the Class A 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 Class A 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 $17.50 (as equitably adjusted to reflect any stock split, subdivision, combination or similar event) per share, plus accrued and unpaid distributions thereon.

(b) After the payment to the holders of the Class A Preferred Shares of the full preferential amounts provided for in paragraph 4(a), the holders of the Class A Preferred Shares will share, ratably with the Common Shares, in any distribution(s) of the remaining assets of the Trust; provided, that , for such purposes, each Class A Preferred Share shall be considered three and one-half (3.5) Common Shares, and each Class A Preferred Share shall receive a distribution pursuant to this paragraph 4(b) that is three and one half (3.5) times the distribution paid to each Common Share (such 3.5 amount shall be equitably adjusted to reflect any stock split, subdivision, combination or similar event).

(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 Class A Preferred Shares and any other shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ranking as to any such distribution on parity with the Class A Preferred Shares are not paid in full, the holders of the Class A 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 4.

5. Conversion . On the Conversion Date, the Class A Preferred Shares shall automatically convert into Common Shares as follows:

(a) For the purposes hereof, the “ Conversion Date ” shall mean the first Business Day on which, pursuant to the Declaration, there are sufficient authorized but unissued shares to convert all of the Class A Preferred Shares into Common Shares, pursuant to the terms hereof.

(b) On the Conversion Date, each Class A Preferred Share shall automatically convert into seven (7) fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares (as equitably adjusted to reflect any stock split, subdivision, combination or similar event). Each holder of each Class A Preferred Share shall surrender the certificate representing such share, duly endorsed or assigned to the Trust or in blank, at the office of the Transfer Agent. Unless the shares issuable on conversion are to be issued in the same name as the name in which such Class A 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

- 2 -

or such holder’s 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). As promptly as practicable after the surrender of certificates representing Class A 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 paragraph 5. Upon conversion, holders of Class A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive a final distribution, per Class A Preferred Share, equal to the Class A Preferred Amount which had accrued up to the most recent Dividend Date and which remains unpaid as of the Conversion Date; provided, however , that if the Conversion Date occurs on or before the Conversion Deadline, the Class A Preferred Amount for the purposes of this paragraph 5(b) shall be calculated at the rate of 3.5% of $35.00 per Class A Preferred Share (as equitably adjusted to reflect any stock split, subdivision, combination or similar event) per share per year. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the payment(s) described in this paragraph 5(b) shall be considered paid prior to the conversion of the Class A Preferred Shares into Common Shares, and (ii) if the Conversion Date occurs on the same date as a Dividend Date, then (A) the Class A Preferred Amount shall accrue through the Dividend Date and the final distribution shall be paid in accordance therewith, and (B) the Common Shares resulting from the conversion of Class A Common Shares shall not be deemed held or owned on the Dividend Date.

(c) The Trust covenants that any Common Shares issued upon conversion of the Class A Preferred Shares shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Trust shall list the Common Shares required to be delivered upon conversion of the Class A 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.

(d) 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 Class A 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 Class A 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.

(e) Prior to the delivery of any securities that the Trust shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Class A 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.

6. Voting.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, the holders of the Class A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to vote at any meeting of the shareholders for election of Trust Managers, for any other purposes and otherwise to participate in any action taken by the Trust or the shareholders thereof, and to receive notice (except for such notice as required by law) of any meeting of shareholders.

(b) In any matter in which the Class A Preferred Shares are entitled to vote, including any action by written consent, each Class A Preferred Share shall be entitled to seven (7) votes, each of which seven (7) votes may be directed separately by the holder thereof (or by any proxy or proxies of such holder). With respect to each Class A Preferred Share, the holder thereof may designate up to seven (7) proxies, with each such proxy having the right to vote a whole number of votes (totaling seven (7) votes per Class A Preferred Share). The number of proxies and votes set forth in this paragraph shall be equitably adjusted to reflect any stock split, subdivision, combination or similar event.

(c) So long as any Class A Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Trust will not (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise), without the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class A Preferred Shares outstanding at the time, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting (such class 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 on a parity with or senior to the Class A 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; (ii) except for the amendment to the Declaration to increase the number of authorized Common Shares as contemplated in Section 8.18(a) of the Merger Agreement, amend, alter or repeal the provisions of the Declaration or the terms of the Class A Preferred Shares so as to affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Class A Preferred Shares or the holders thereof; (iii) issue, combine or subdivide any shares of beneficial interest in the Trust (except upon exercise of stock options outstanding on the date hereof for the purchase of Common Shares) or (iv) issue any rights, options, warrants or other convertible securities evidencing the right to purchase shares of beneficial interest of the Trust.

- 3 -

(d) 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, there are no outstanding Class A Preferred Shares.

7. Redemption . The Class A Preferred Shares are not redeemable by any Person.

8. Restrictions on Transfer . The Class A Preferred Shares shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer and ownership of shares set forth in Article Twenty-One of the Declaration.

9. Amendment . The foregoing preferences, conversions, rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications, terms and conditions of redemption, and all other terms regarding the Class A Preferred Shares may be amended with the affirmative vote of (i) the holders of at least two-thirds of the Class A Preferred Shares outstanding at the time and (ii) a majority of the independent trust managers of the Trust; provided, that if any such amendment would have an adverse financial effect (as described below) greater than $250,000 in the aggregate or a non-financial material adverse effect on the holders of the Common Shares, then such amendment must also receive the approval of the holders of at least a majority of the Common Shares voting on such amendment (not including any votes cast by CIM Urban REIT, LLC and its affiliates or the holders of the Class A Preferred Shares). In determining whether there would be an adverse financial effect in the aggregate or a non-financial material adverse effect to the holders of the Common Shares under this Section 9, the terms and provisions of the proposed amendment shall be compared to the terms and provisions of this Statement and the Merger Agreement assuming for purposes of such comparison that any and all of the terms and provisions of this Statement, as adopted by the Trust Managers, and the Merger Agreement, as executed by the parties thereto, are given full force and effect.

The Class A Preferred Shares have been classified by the Trust Managers as authorized by the Declaration.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trust has caused this Statement to be duly executed on its behalf on the 11th day of March, 2014.

(i) within ten (10) days of the receipt thereof, give written notice of such request to all Holders; and

(ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to effect promptly the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which the Holders request to be registered, subject to the limitations of subsection 1.2(b), in a written request received by the Company within fifteen (15) days of the making of the notice pursuant to Section 1.2(a)(i).

(b) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to subsection 1.2(a) and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in subsection 1.2(a). The underwriter or underwriters will be selected by the Company, subject to the approval of a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders. In such event, the right of any Holder to include Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and such Holder) to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company as provided in subsection 1.5(i)) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1.2, if the managing underwriter advises the Company and the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities which would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders thereof, including the Initiating Holders, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount of Registrable Securities of the Company owned by each Holder at the time of the filing of the registration statement; provided , however, that the number of shares of Registrable Securities held by Holders to be included in such underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting. Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from the registration.

- 2 -

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to Holders requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section 1.2, a certificate signed by the Company’s chief executive officer or the chairman of the board of trust managers of the Company (the “ Board ”) stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board, as evidenced by a resolution by the Board, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration statement to be filed and it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such registration statement, the Company shall have the right to defer taking action with respect to such filing for a period of not more than sixty (60) days after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders; provided , that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve month period; provided further , that this right is cumulative to the right under Section 1.4(b)(iii) such that the Company may only defer the filing of a registration statement under Section 1.2(c) or Section 1.4(b)(iii) once in any twelve-month period.

(d) In addition, the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to this Section 1.2:

(i) After the Company has effected eight (8) registrations pursuant to this Section 1.2 and such registration statements have been declared or ordered effective and have remained effective for a period of at least 180 days; provided , that if such request pursuant to this Section 1.2 is subsequently withdrawn by the requester in writing, it shall not be counted against the limitation of requests set forth in this Section 1.2(d)(i);

(ii) If the Company has effected a registration pursuant to this Section 1.2 within the preceding three (3) months, and such registration has been declared or ordered effective; or

(iii) If the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of shares of Registrable Securities that may be immediately registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a request made pursuant to Section 1.4 below.

1.3. Company Registration.

(a) If (but without any obligation to do so) the Company proposes to register any of its capital stock under the Securities Act for its own account or the account of any of its stockholders with registration rights (other than in connection with a registration effected solely to implement an employee benefit plan or arrangement or a business combination transaction or any other similar transaction for which a registration statement on Form S-4 under the Securities Act or any comparable successor form is applicable), the Company will promptly give written notice thereof to the Holders of Registrable Securities at least twenty (20) days prior to the filing of such registration statement, or such lesser time that is reasonable taking into account the Company’s contractual obligation to file such registration statement. Upon the written request of each Holder given within fifteen (15) days after the giving of such notice by the Company, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of this Section 1.3, cause to be registered under the Securities Act in such registration statement all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be registered.

(b) In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required under this Section 1.3 to include any of the Holders’ securities in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it, and then only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. Regardless of any other provision of this Section 1.3, if the underwriter advises the Company that marketing factors require a reduction in the number of shares to be underwritten, then the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated first, to the Company and the Person or Persons requesting such registration (if other than the Company) shall be entitled to participate in accordance with the relative priorities, if any, as shall exist among them; and then second, all other holders of securities having the right to include such securities in such registration (including the Holders of the Registrable Securities) shall be entitled to participate pro rata based on the number of shares requested to be sold by such Holders. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 1.3 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. The registration expenses of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 1.8 hereof.

1.4. Form S-3 Registration.

Notwithstanding anything in Section 1.2 or Section 1.3 to the contrary, in case the Company shall receive from any Holders of Registrable Common Securities then outstanding or Registrable Preferred Securities then outstanding, a written request or requests that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, and the Company is then eligible to use Form S-3 for the resale of Registrable Securities, the Company will:

(a) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders; and

- 3 -

(b) promptly effect such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder’s or Holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided , that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance, pursuant to this Section 1.4:

(i) if Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders;

(ii) if the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities at an aggregate price to the public (net of any underwriters’ discounts or commissions) of less than $2.5 million;

(iii) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the Company’s chief executive officer or chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board as evidenced by a resolution by the Board, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such Form S-3 registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement for a period of not more than sixty (60) days after receipt of the request of the Holder or Holders under this Section 1.4; provided , that the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any twelve-month period; provided further , that this right is cumulative to the right under Section 1.2(c) such that the Company may only defer the filing of a registration statement under Section 1.2(c) or Section 1.4(b)(iii) once in any twelve-month period;

(iv) if the Company has, within the three (3) month period preceding the date of such request, already effected one (1) registration on Form S-3 for the Holders pursuant to Section 1.3, provided , that any such registration shall be deemed to have been “effected” if the registration statement relating thereto (A) has become or been declared or ordered effective under the Securities Act, and any of the Registrable Securities of the Initiating Holder(s) included in such registration have actually been sold thereunder and (B) has remained effective for a period of at least 180 days; or

(v) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance.

(c) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities so requested to be registered promptly after receipt of the request or requests of the Holders. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 1.4 shall not be counted as requests for registration effected pursuant to Section 1.2 or Section 1.3, respectively.

(d) If the Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request under this Section 1.4 by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 1.4 and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in subsection 1.4(a). The underwriter or underwriters will be selected by the Company, subject to the approval of a majority in interest of the Holders participating in such registration. In such event, the right of any Holder to include Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the Holders participating in the registration and the Holder) to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company as provided in subsection 1.5(h)) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1.4, if the managing underwriter advises the Company and the Holders participating in such underwriting in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities which would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders thereof, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount of Registrable Securities of the Company owned by each Holder at the time of the filing of the registration statement; provided , however, that the number of shares of Registrable Securities held by Holders to be included in such underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting. Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from the registration.

1.5. Obligations of the Company.

Whenever required under this Section 1 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

(a) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for 180 days or, if earlier, until the distribution contemplated in the registration statement has been completed; provided , that, in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 which are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, such 180-day period shall be extended, if necessary, to keep the registration statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that it is available

(d) Register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such Holders to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder; provided , that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto (i) to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, (ii) subject itself to taxation in any jurisdiction or (iii) in the case of a registration pursuant to Section 1.3, register or qualify such Holder’s Registrable Securities in any jurisdiction where shares to be sold by the Company or any other person initiating such registration are not to be registered or qualified.

(e) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement and any Hedging Counterparty, if applicable, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the Company’s becoming aware that the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and at the request of any such Holder or Hedging Counterparty, prepare and furnish to such Holder and Hedging Counterparty a reasonable number of copies of an amended or supplemental prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such amended or supplemental prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing.

(f) Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Agreement to be listed on any securities exchange on which any shares of the Common Shares are then listed.

(h) Enter into and perform its obligations under such customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form), which may include indemnification provisions in favor of underwriters and other persons in addition to, or in substitution for the provisions of Section 1.9 hereof, and take such other actions as sellers of a majority of shares of such Registrable Securities, a Hedging Counterparty, if any, or the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities or any Registrable Class Securities in connection with any Hedging Transaction.

(i) Make available for inspection by any seller of such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, by any underwriter participating in any disposition to be effected pursuant to such registration statement, by any Hedging Counterparty, and by any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller, any such underwriter, or any such Hedging Counterparty all pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause all of the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, Hedging Counterparty, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement.

- 5 -

(k) Use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus relating to such registration statement, and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest possible moment.

(l) Respond promptly to any comments received from the SEC and request acceleration of effectiveness promptly after it learns that the SEC will not review the registration statement or after it has satisfied comments received from the SEC.

In the event a registration statement is interfered with by any event of the kind described in clauses (iv) through (vii) of the first sentence of this Section 1.5(m) for more than twenty (20) days, such registration shall not be deemed “effected” for purposes of Section 1.2(d) or Section 1.4(b).

(n) If requested by the managing underwriter or agent or any Holder of Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement, promptly incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the managing underwriter or agent or such Holder reasonably requests to be included therein, including, without limitation, with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being sold by such Holder to such underwriter or agent, the purchase price being paid therefor by such underwriter or agent and with respect to any other terms of the underwritten offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; and make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after being notified of the matters incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment.

(o) Cooperate with the Holders of Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement and the managing underwriter or agent, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends) representing securities to be sold under the registration statement, and enable such securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the managing underwriter or agent, if any, or such Holders may request.

(p) Cooperate with each seller of Registrable Securities, any Hedging Counterparty, and each underwriter or agent participating in the disposition of such Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.

(r) Make all required filings of all Free Writing Prospectuses with the SEC.

Each Holder shall be deemed to have agreed by acquisition of the Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in clauses (iv) through (vii) of subsection (m) of this Section 1.5, such Holder will forthwith discontinue its disposition of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement relating thereto until Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by subsection (e) of this Section 1.5 and, if so directed by the Company, will deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in Holder’s possession of the prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

1.6. Registration In Connection With Hedging Transactions.

(a) The Company acknowledges that from time to time a Holder may seek to enter into one or more Hedging Transactions with a Hedging Counterparty. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, the Company agrees that, in connection with any proposed Hedging Transaction, if, in the reasonable judgment of counsel to the Holder (after good faith consultation with counsel

- 6 -

to the Company), it is necessary or desirable to register under the Securities Act such Hedging Transaction or sales or transfers (whether short or long) of Registrable Class Securities in connection therewith, then the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions (which may include among other things, the filing of a post-effective amendment to any shelf registration statement to include additional or changed information that is material or is otherwise required to be disclosed, including, without limitation, a description of such Hedging Transaction, the name of the Hedging Counterparty, identification of the Hedging Counterparty or its affiliates as underwriters or potential underwriters, if applicable, or any change to the plan of distribution) as may reasonably be required to register such Hedging Transactions or sales or transfers of Registrable Class Securities in connection therewith under the Securities Act in a manner consistent with the rights and obligations of the Company hereunder with respect to the registration of Registrable Securities.

(b) The Company agrees to include in each prospectus supplement filed in connection with any proposed Hedging Transaction language mutually agreed upon by the Company, the Holder and the Hedging Counterparty describing such Hedging Transaction.

(c) Any information regarding the Hedging Transaction included in a registration statement or prospectus pursuant to this Section 1.6 shall be deemed to be information provided by the Holder selling Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement or prospectus for purposes of Section 1.5 of this Agreement.

(d) If in connection with a Hedging Transaction a Hedging Counterparty or any affiliate thereof is (or may be considered) an underwriter or selling securityholder, then it shall be required to provide customary indemnities to the Company regarding itself, the plan of distribution and like matters.

1.7. Furnish Information; Limitation of Obligations.

It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder as to which a registration is being effected to furnish, that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities.

1.8. Expenses of Registrations.

All expenses other than underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in connection with registrations pursuant to this Section 1, including without limitation all registration, filing and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and one counsel for the participating Holders, shall be borne by the Company; provided , that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 1.2 or Section 1.4 as applicable, if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered (in which case all participating Holders shall bear all such expenses incurred), unless, in the case of a registration requested under Section 1.2, the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit one demand registration pursuant to Section 1.2.

1.9. Indemnification.

(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder, their respective affiliates and controlling persons (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the partners, officers, directors members, representatives, agents and employees of each Holder, and each such person (collectively, the “ Holder Indemnified Parties ”), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively, a “ Violation ”) by the Company: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including without limitation any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (iii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Disclosure Package or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, or (iv) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in connection with the offering covered by such registration statement; and the Company will reimburse each such Holder Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided , that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 1.9(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the Company be liable in any such case to any Holder Indemnified Party for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation

- 7 -

which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder Indemnified Party under an instrument duly executed by any such Holder Indemnified Party expressly for use in connection with such registration by such Holder; provided further , that the foregoing indemnity agreement with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder Indemnified Party from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased shares in the offering, if a copy of the prospectus (as then amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) was not sent or given by or on behalf of such Holder Indemnified Party to such person, if required by law so to have been delivered, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the shares to such person, and if the prospectus (as so amended or supplemented) would have cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim, damage or liability. For purposes of the last proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, the term “prospectus” shall not be deemed to include the documents, if any, incorporated therein by reference, and no person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of Registrable Securities or any other person, if any, who controls such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, shall be obligated to send or give any supplement or amendment to any document incorporated by reference in any preliminary prospectus or the final prospectus to any person other than a person to whom such underwriter had delivered such incorporated document or documents in response to a written request therefor. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such party and shall survive the transfer of such securities.

(b) To the extent permitted by law, each Holder shall, if shares held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, each underwriter and each other stockholder selling securities under such registration statement against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder under an instrument duly executed by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each Holder shall reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 1.9(b), in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if it is judicially determined that there was such violation; provided , that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 1.9(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the written consent of such Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided further , that the liability of each Holder under this Section 1.9(b) shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds actually received and retained by such Holder in the registered public offering out of which such liability arises, unless such liability arises out of or is based on willful misconduct by such Holder.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 1.9 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 1.9, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided , that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if materially prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 1.9 to the extent so prejudiced, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 1.9.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.9 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the Violation that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided , that in no event shall any contribution by a Holder that is a selling party under this Section 1.9(d) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

- 8 -

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

(f) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 1.9 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Section 1 and otherwise.

1.10. Rule 144 Reporting.

With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144 or any similar or analogous rule promulgated under the Securities Act;

(b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act; and

(c) so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to such Holder forthwith upon written request: (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144 and the Exchange Act; (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company; and (iii) such other reports and documents as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.

1.11. Assignment of Registration Rights.

A Holder may assign any or all of its rights hereunder (but only with all related obligations) to any person or entity to whom the Holder may transfer or assign its Common Shares or Preferred Shares; provided , that: (i) the Company is, within ten (10) days after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned; and (ii) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation the terms and conditions of Section 1.13 hereof.

1.12. Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights.

The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Common Securities then outstanding, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would grant to such holder or prospective holder registration rights superior to or, except with respect to piggyback or incidental registration rights, on parity with those granted under this Section 1.

1.13. Lockup.

(a) Each Holder agrees that it will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Merger Issuance Shares in any Public Sale, enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any Hedging Transaction or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Merger Issuance Shares in a Public Sale, whether any of these transactions are to be settled by delivery of Merger Issuance Shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise, or publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or enter into any Hedging Transaction or other arrangement with respect to any Merger Issuance Shares in any Public Sale during the period from the “Effective Time” (as defined in the Merger Agreement) through the one-year anniversary of the Effective Time (such period, the “ Lock-Up Period ”); provided, that the restrictions set forth in this Section 1.13(a) shall terminate with respect to 40,000,000 Common Shares six months following the Effective Time with the prior approval of the majority of the independent trust managers of the Board.

(b) The terms of this Section 1.13 shall not, during the Lock-Up Period, restrict any offer, sale, contract to sell, pledge, Hedging Transaction or otherwise disposition of any Merger Issuance Shares in any transaction not directly or indirectly involving a Public Sale; provided , however , that in each such case, the transferred Merger Issuance Shares shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Section 1.13 of this Agreement as though the undersigned Holder were still the Holder of such Merger Issuance Shares; and provided , further , that the transferee must execute and deliver to the Company an agreement stating that the transferee is receiving and holding such Merger Issuance Shares subject to all of the restrictions set forth in this Section 1.13.

- 9 -

(c) The terms of this Section 1.13 shall not prohibit or restrict: (i) any disclosure by any Holder in a Schedule 13D or 13G under the Exchange Act of (x) its beneficial ownership of any Merger Issuance Shares or (y) its general intent to dispose of any Merger Issuance Shares (which stated intent shall not include any specific plan or expectation to dispose of any Merger Issuance Shares, other than the distribution of such shares to the owners of the Holder), subject to its compliance with this Section 1.13, from time to time; or (ii) any Holder from exercising its rights under this Agreement to require the Company to file a registration statement under the Securities Act to register all or any part of the Merger Issuance Shares for resale at any time after the six month anniversary hereof.

(d) Each Holder agrees that its registration rights relating to the Registrable Securities set forth in this Agreement shall be subject to material compliance with the restrictions set forth in this Section 1.13.

1.14. Confidential Information.

Each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees that any information obtained pursuant to this Agreement which the Company identifies to be proprietary to the Company or otherwise confidential will not be disclosed without the prior written consent of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Holder of Registrable Securities may disclose such information, on a need to know basis, to their employees, accountants or attorneys (so long as each such person to whom confidential information is disclosed agrees to keep such information confidential) or to the extent required by applicable law, rule, regulation or court order. Each Holder of Registrable Securities further acknowledges, understands and agrees that any confidential information will not be utilized in connection with purchases and/or sales of the Company’s securities except in compliance with applicable state and federal antifraud statutes.

1.15. Termination of Registration Rights.

No Holder shall be entitled to exercise any right provided for in this Section 1 after such time at which all Registrable Securities held by such Holder (and any affiliate of the Holder or other person with whom such Holder must aggregate sales under Rule 144 of the Securities Act) can be sold without restriction (including volume and manner-of-sale restrictions) on a single day without registration in compliance with Rule 144 of the Securities Act (or any similar provision then in effect) and such Holder has received, upon such Holder’s request, an opinion of counsel to the Company to that effect.

3.4. Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which will be considered one and the same agreement and will become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that each party need not sign the same counterpart.

3.5. Notices.

3.7. Amendments and Waivers.

Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company (with the approval of a majority of the independent trust managers of the Board) and the holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding.

Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has entered, as of the date hereof, nor shall the Company or any of its subsidiaries, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities, that would have the effect of impairing the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.

3.9. Specific Performance.

The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the failure of any party to perform its agreements and covenants hereunder, including its failure to take all actions as are necessary on its part to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, will cause irreparable injury to the other parties for which damages, even if available, will not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, each party hereby consents to the issuance of injunctive relief by any court of competent jurisdiction to compel performance of such party’s obligations and to the granting by any court of the remedy of specific performance of its obligations hereunder.

3.10. Severability.

The illegality or partial illegality of any of this Agreement, or any provision hereof, will not affect the validity of the remainder of this Agreement, or any provision hereof, and the illegality or partial illegality of this Agreement will not affect the validity of this Agreement in any jurisdiction in which such determination of illegality or partial illegality has not been made, except in either case to the extent such illegality or partial illegality causes this Agreement to no longer contain all of the material provisions reasonably expected by the parties to be contained therein.
