Each of the Customers, Direct Purchasers and Clients are referred to herein as individually, a "Purchaser" and collectively, the "Purchasers."
WHEREAS, the Purchasers desire to purchase from the Company (or their Investment Advisers and Broker-Dealers desire to purchase on their behalf from the Company), and the Company desires to sell to each Purchaser the number of depositary shares (the "Depositary Shares"), each representing a 1/10 fractional interest in a share of the Company's Class B Series II Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares (the "Offered Shares") set forth opposite the name of that Purchaser on Schedule A, Schedule B or Schedule C, as the case may be, at a price per share of $25.00.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Purchase and Sale. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Investment Advisers and the Broker-Dealers (on behalf of Purchasers which are Clients and Customers, respectively) and the other Purchasers hereby severally and not jointly agree to purchase from the Company, and the Company agrees to issue and sell to the several Purchasers the number of Offered Shares set forth next to such Purchaser's name on Schedule A, Schedule B or Schedule C, as the case may be, at a price per share of $25.00 (the "Purchase Price") at the Closing (as defined below). The aggregate Purchase Price payable on the Closing Date in respect of all shares of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to this Purchase Agreement is set forth on Schedule D hereof.
2. Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. Each Purchaser represents severally and not jointly that:
(a) Due Authorization. Such Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and is duly authorized to purchase the Offered Shares in the amount set forth opposite its name on Schedule A, Schedule B or Schedule C, as the case may be. This Agreement has been duly authorized by such Purchaser and duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of such Purchaser. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of such Purchaser, enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with its terms except as may be limited by (i) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights or remedies of creditors or (ii) the effect of general principles of equity, whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought (the "Enforceability Exceptions").
(b) Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement. Such Purchaser has received a copy of the Company's Basic Prospectus dated March 7, 1997 the preliminary prospectus supplement dated November 8, 2004 and the Prospectus Supplement dated December 3, 2004 (each as defined below).
(c) Ownership of Excess Shares. As of the date hereof and after giving effect to the transaction contemplated hereby, such Purchaser, together with its subsidiaries, is not a Person (as defined in the Company's Articles of Incorporation, as amended or supplemented (the "Articles")) who Beneficially Owns or Constructively Owns (as each such term is defined in the Articles) directly or indirectly more than 9.8% in number of shares of any class or series of the issued and outstanding capital shares of the Company other than the Company's common shares, without par value (the "Common Shares") and, with respect to the Common Shares, such Purchaser is not a Person who Beneficially Owns or Constructively Owns directly or indirectly more than 4%. Purchaser expressly acknowledges that the provisions of the Articles, in general, and the amendment to the Articles that establish the terms of the Offered Shares ("Articles Amendment"), in particular, prohibit the Beneficial Ownership or Constructively Ownership by any Person directly or indirectly of more than 9.8% of any class or series of preferred shares or 4% of Common Shares of the Company and, if Purchaser's Depositary Shares acquired pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise constitute Excess Shares (as defined in the Charter), the Company may repurchase such number of the Depositary Shares on the terms set forth in the Articles as is necessary to cause Purchaser to thereafter not own any Excess Shares.
3. Representations and Warranties of Company. The Company represents and warrants that:
(a) The Company meets the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). The Registration Statement (as defined below) was declared effective by the SEC (as defined below) and the Company has filed such post-effective amendments thereto as may be required under applicable law prior to the execution of this Agreement and each such post-effective amendment became effective. The SEC has not issued, nor to the Company's knowledge, has the SEC threatened to issue or intends to issue, a stop order with respect to the Registration Statement, nor has it otherwise suspended or withdrawn the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or to the Company's knowledge, threatened to do so, either temporarily or permanently, nor, to the Company's knowledge, does it intend to do so. On the effective date of the Registration Statement, the Registration Statement complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations promulgated under the Act (the "Regulations"); at the effective date of the Registration Statement the Basic Prospectus (as defined below) complied, and at the Closing Date the Prospectus (as defined below) will comply, in all material respects with the requirements of the Act and the Regulations; each of the Basic Prospectus and the Prospectus as of its respective date and at the Closing Date did not, does not and will not contain 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; provided, however, that the representations and warranties in this subsection shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of any of the Purchasers, Cohen & Steers Capital Advisors, LLC, in its capacity as placement agent ("Placement Agent"), any Investment Advisers or Broker-Dealers, or any of their respective affiliates, expressly for use in the Prospectus. As used in this Agreement, the term "Registration Statement" means the shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-22419), as declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including exhibits, financial statements, schedules and documents incorporated by reference therein. The term "Basic Prospectus" means the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as amended, or as supplemented and filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424 under the Act in connection with the sale of the Offered Shares hereunder. The term "Prospectus Supplement" means the prospectus supplement specifically relating to the Offered Shares to be filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424 under the Act in connection with the sale of the Offered Shares hereunder. The term "Prospectus" means the Basic Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement taken together. The term "preliminary prospectus" means any form of preliminary prospectus used in connection with the marketing of the Offered Shares, including the preliminary prospectus supplement filed with the SEC on November 8, 2004 and the Basic Prospectus used with any such preliminary prospectus supplement in connection with the marketing of the Offered Shares. Any reference in this Agreement to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein as of the date hereof or the date of the Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus as the case may be, and any reference herein to any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any documents filed after such date and through the date of such amendment or supplement under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and so incorporated by reference.
(b) Since the date as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, except as otherwise disclosed therein, (i) there has been no material adverse change or any development which could reasonably be expected to give rise to a prospective material adverse change in or affecting the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings or business affairs or, to the Company's knowledge, business prospects of the Company and the subsidiaries of the Company, if any (the "Subsidiaries") considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, (ii) there have been no transactions entered into by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, other than those in the ordinary course of business, which are material with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, and (iii) other than regular quarterly dividends, there has been no dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or made by the Company on any class of its shares of equity securities.
(c) The Company has been duly organized as a corporation and is validly existing in good standing under the laws of the State of Ohio. Each of the Subsidiaries of the Company has been duly organized and is validly existing in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has the required power and authority to own and lease its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Prospectus; and each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is duly qualified to transact business in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except where the failure to so qualify would not have a material adverse effect on the condition, financial or otherwise, or the earnings, business affairs or, to the Company's knowledge, business prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries considered as one enterprise.
(d) As of the date hereof, the authorized capital stock of the Company consisted of 41,000,000 common shares, without par value; 3,000,000 Class A preferred shares, of which 225,000 have been designated as 9-3/4% Class A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares (the "Class A Preferred Shares"); 3,000,000 Class B preferred shares, of which 400,000 have been designated as Class B Series I Cumulative Preferred Shares; and 3,000,000 noncumulative preferred shares, of which 19,654,360 Common Shares and 225,000 Class A Preferred Shares are issued and outstanding as of such date (without giving effect to any preferred stock issued or to be issued as contemplated by this Agreement or the application of the proceeds of the offering contemplated hereby). The issued and outstanding shares of the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable; the Offered Shares have been duly authorized, and when issued in accordance with the terms of the Articles Amendment and delivered and paid for as contemplated hereby, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable; the Offered Shares, the Common Shares and the Class A Preferred Shares of the Company conform to all statements relating thereto contained in the Prospectus; and the issuance of the Offered Shares is not subject to preemptive or other similar rights.
(e) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of its organizational documents or in default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any material contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other instrument or agreement to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of them are bound, or to which any of the property or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is subject, except where such violation or default would not have a material adverse effect on the condition, financial or otherwise, or the earnings, business affairs or, to the Company's knowledge, business prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries considered as one enterprise; and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the execution and filing of the Articles Amendment, and the issuance and delivery of the Offered Shares and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein have been duly authorized by all necessary action and will not conflict with or constitute a material breach of, or material default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any material property or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to, any material contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other instrument or agreement to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of them are bound, or to which any of the property or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is subject, nor will any such action result in any violation of the provisions of the Articles, as amended and supplemented by the Articles Amendment, by-laws or other organizational documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any law, administrative regulation or administrative or court decree applicable to the Company.
(f) The Company is organized in conformity with the requirements for qualification and, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing, operates in a manner that qualifies it as a "real estate investment trust" under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder and will be so qualified after giving effect to the sale of the Offered Shares.
(g) The Company is not required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
(h) No legal or governmental proceedings are pending to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or to which the property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is subject that are required to be described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus and are not described therein, and, to the Company's knowledge, no such proceedings have been threatened against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or with respect to any of their respective properties that are required to be described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus and are not described therein.
(i) No authorization, approval or consent of or filing with any court or United States federal or state governmental authority or agency is necessary in connection with the sale of the Offered Shares hereunder, except (i) such as may be required under the Act or the Regulations or state securities laws or real estate syndication laws and (ii) the filing of the Articles Amendment as set forth in paragraph (l) below, and any such required authorization, approval or consent or filing has been obtained or made, as the case may be, or will be obtained or made prior to the time that any Offered Shares are issued pursuant to this Agreement.
(j) The Company and its Subsidiaries possess such certificates, authorities or permits issued by the appropriate state, federal or foreign regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct the business now conducted by them, except where the failure to possess such certificates, authority or permits would not have a material adverse effect on the condition, financial or otherwise, or the earnings, business affairs or, to the Company's knowledge, business prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries considered as one enterprise. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, authority or permit which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would materially and adversely affect the condition, financial or otherwise, or the earnings, business affairs or, to the Company's knowledge, business prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, nor, to the knowledge of the Company, are any such proceedings threatened or contemplated.
(k) The Company has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement, and this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms except as may be limited by the Enforceability Exceptions.
(l) The Articles Amendment, and the filing of the Articles Amendment with the Secretary of State of Ohio on behalf of the Company, have each been duly authorized by the Company; the Articles Amendment will be filed with the Secretary of State of Ohio on behalf of the Company prior to the time that any Offered Shares are issued pursuant to this Agreement and when so filed will constitute a valid and legally binding amendment to the Articles enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by the Enforceability Exceptions.
(m) As of the dates set forth therein or incorporated by reference, the Company or its subsidiaries had good and marketable title to all of the properties and assets reflected in the audited financial statements contained in the Prospectus, subject to no lien, mortgage, pledge or encumbrance of any kind except (i) those reflected in such financial statements, (ii) as are otherwise described in the Prospectus, (iii) as do not materially adversely affect the value of such property or interests or interfere with the use made or proposed to be made of such property or interests by the Company and each of its Subsidiaries or (iv) which constitute customary provisions of mortgage loans secured by the Company's properties creating obligations of the Company or its subsidiaries with respect to proceeds of the properties, environmental liabilities and other customary protections for the mortgagees.
(n) Neither the issuance, sale and delivery of the Offered Shares nor the application of the proceeds thereof by the Company as described in the Prospectus will cause the Company to violate or be in violation of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any other regulation of such Board of Governors.
(o) The statements set forth in the Basic Prospectus under the caption "Description of Preferred Shares" and the statements set forth in the Prospectus Supplement under the caption "Description of Class B Series II Preferred Shares and Depositary," in each case, insofar as such statements purport to summarize provisions of laws or documents referred to therein, are correct in all material respects and fairly present the information required to be presented therein.
