If Secured Debt secured by real estate or other property or assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries (“Secondary Collateral”) is fully defeased in accordance with the terms thereof or is also secured by cash or Cash Equivalents in an amount (determined at the lesser of (i) carrying value in accordance with GAAP or (ii) fair market value) at least equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Secured Debt, such Secondary Collateral shall be deemed not to secure any portion of such Secured Debt for purposes of this definition.

The Notes (together with the Trustee’s certificate of authentication) shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which is hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Supplemental Indenture. Any of the Notes may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such notations, legends, endorsements

or changes as the officers executing the same may approve (execution thereof to be conclusive evidence of such approval) and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture, or as may be required by the Depositary or as may be required to comply with any applicable law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed, or to conform to usage, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Notes are subject.

In any such instance, an owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Note will be entitled to physical delivery of individual Notes in certificated form of the same series and like tenor, equal in principal amount to such beneficial interest and to have the Notes in certificated form registered in its name. Notes so issued in certificated form will be issued in denominations of $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof and will be issued in registered form only, without coupons.

The stated maturity of the Notes is August 15, 2022; provided, however, the Notes may be earlier redeemed at the option of the Company as provided in paragraph (g) below. The principal of each Note payable on its maturity date shall be paid against presentation and surrender thereof at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public or private debts.

ARTICLE 3

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

Section 3.1 Additional Covenants of the Company. In addition to the covenants of the Company set forth in Article Ten of the Indenture, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes:

(a) Limitations on Incurrence of Debt.

(i) The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Debt and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined in accordance with GAAP is greater than 60% of the sum (“Adjusted Total Assets”) of (without duplication) (A) the Total Assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the calendar quarter covered in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, or the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (or, if such filing is not permitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Debt and (B) the purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent that such proceeds were not used to acquire real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), by the Company or any Subsidiary since the end of such calendar quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection with the incurrence of such additional Debt.

(ii) In addition to the foregoing limitation on the incurrence of Debt, the Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Secured Debt if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Secured Debt and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Secured Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis is greater than 40% of Adjusted Total Assets.

(iii) In addition to the foregoing limitations on the incurrence of Debt, the Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt if the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service to the Annual Debt Service for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which such additional Debt is to be incurred shall have been less than 1.5 to 1.0, on a pro forma basis after giving effect thereto and to the application of the proceeds therefrom, and calculated on the assumption that (A) such Debt and any other Debt incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period and the application of the proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other Debt, had occurred at the beginning of

such period; (B) the repayment or retirement of any other Debt by the Company and its Subsidiaries since the first date of such four-quarter period had been repaid or retired at the beginning of such period (except that, in making such computation, the amount of Debt under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Debt during such period); (C) in the case of Acquired Debt or Debt incurred in connection with any acquisition since the first day of such four-quarter period, the related acquisition had occurred as of the first day of such period with appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition being included in such pro forma calculation; and (D) in the case of any acquisition or disposition by the Company or its Subsidiaries of any asset or group of assets since the first day of such four-quarter period, whether by merger, stock purchase or sale, or asset purchase or sale, such acquisition or disposition or any related repayment of Debt had occurred as of the first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition or disposition being included in such pro forma calculation. If the Debt giving rise to the need to make the foregoing calculation or any other Debt incurred after the first day of the relevant four-quarter period bears interest at a floating rate then, for purposes of calculating the Annual Debt Service, the interest rate on such Debt shall be computed on a pro forma basis as if the average interest rate which would have been in effect during the entire such four-quarter period had been the applicable rate for the entire such period.

(b) Maintenance of Total Unencumbered Assets. The Company and its Subsidiaries will maintain at all times Total Unencumbered Assets of not less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Unsecured Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of February 25, 1998 and Supplemental Indenture No. 14 dated as of August 16, 2012 (collectively, the “Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as in effect on the date of the Indenture and Holders of the Notes are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. The terms of the Indenture shall govern any inconsistencies between the Indenture and the Notes. The Notes are senior unsecured general obligations of the Company initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $500,000,000.

4. Optional Redemption. The Notes will be subject to redemption at any time at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed,

A-3

plus accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the applicable Redemption Date and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount, if any.

As used herein the term “Make-Whole Amount” means, in connection with any optional redemption or accelerated payment of any Notes prior to February 15, 2022, the excess, if any, of (i) the aggregate present value as of the date of such redemption or accelerated payment of each dollar of principal being redeemed or paid and the amount of interest (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption or accelerated payment) that would have been payable in respect of such dollar if such redemption or accelerated payment had been made on February 15, 2022, determined by discounting, on a semiannual basis, such principal and interest at the Reinvestment Rate (determined on the third Business Day preceding the date such notice of redemption is given or declaration of acceleration is made) from the respective dates on which such principal and interest would have been payable if such redemption or accelerated payment had been made on February 15, 2022, over (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Notes being redeemed or paid. In the case of any redemption or accelerated payment of notes on or after February 15, 2022, the Make-Whole Amount means zero. For purposes of the Indenture and the Notes, references in the Indenture to the payment of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes shall be deemed to include the payment of the Make-Whole Amount, if any, due upon redemption with respect to the Notes. The Make-Whole Amount shall be calculated by the Company and set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on said Officer’s Certificate.

As used herein the term “Reinvestment Rate” means a rate per annum equal to the sum of 0.50% (50 one hundredths of one percent) plus the yield on treasury securities at constant maturity under the heading “Week Ending” published in the Statistical Release (as defined herein) under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities” for the maturity (rounded to the nearest month) corresponding to the remaining life to maturity (which, in the case of maturities corresponding to the principal and interest due on the Notes at their maturity, shall be deemed to be February 15, 2022), as of the payment date of the principal being redeemed or paid. If no maturity exactly corresponds to such maturity, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to such maturity shall be calculated pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and the Reinvestment Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis, rounding in each of such relevant periods to the nearest month. For purposes of calculating the Reinvestment Rate, the most recent Statistical Release published prior to the date of determination of the Make-Whole Amount shall be used.

As used herein the term “Statistical Release” means the statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States government securities adjusted to constant maturities or, if such statistical release is not published at the time of any determination under the Indenture, then any publicly available source of similar market data which shall be designated by the Company.

5. Mandatory Redemption. The Company shall not be required to make sinking fund or redemption payments with respect to the Notes.

A-4

6. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address. Notes may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed. On and after the Redemption Date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of them called for redemption.

7. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Security Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Security Registrar need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption. Also, it need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes, or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

8. Defaults and Remedies. In case an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal hereof may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the provisions provided in the Indenture.

9. Actions of Holders. The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, subject to certain exceptions as provided in the Indenture, on behalf of the Holders of all such Notes at a meeting duly called and held as provided in the Indenture, to make, give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided in the Indenture to be made, given or taken by the Holders of the Notes, including without limitation, waiving (a) compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture, and (b) certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any resolution passed or decision taken at any meeting of the Holders of the Notes in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holders and upon all future Holders of this Note and other Notes issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange heretofore or in lieu hereof.

10. Persons Deemed Owners. The Company, the Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may deem and treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered on the Security Register as its absolute owner for all purposes.

11. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

12. Governing Law. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THE INDENTURE AND THE NOTES.

13. No Personal Liability. THE DECLARATION OF TRUST OF THE COMPANY, AMENDED AND RESTATED ON AUGUST 21, 1995, A COPY OF WHICH, TOGETHER
