“Series D Certificate of Designations” means the Certificate of Designations of the General Partner in connection with its REIT Series D Preferred Shares, as filed with the Ohio Secretary of State on November 22, 2011 and the Certificate of Designations of the General Partner in connection with its REIT Series D Preferred Shares, as filed with the Ohio Secretary of State on March 21, 2012, collectively.
Section 2. Section 2 of Amendment No. 2 to the Partnership Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section 2.1 thereof and replacing such Section with the following new Section 2.1, and by deleting Section 2.2(A) thereof and replacing such Section with the following new Section 2.2(A):
Section 2.1 Designation and Number. A series of Limited Partnership Interests in the Partnership designated as the “9.25% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units” (the “Series D Preferred Units”) is hereby established, with the rights, priorities and preferences set forth herein. The number of Series D Preferred Units shall be 4,820,000.
Section 2.2. Distributions
A. Payment of Distributions. Pursuant to Section 5.1 of the Partnership Agreement and subject to the rights of holders of Parity Preferred Units as to the payment of distributions, the General Partner, as holder of the Series D Preferred Units, will be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Partnership acting through the General Partner, cumulative preferential cash distributions in an amount equal to the Series D Priority Return. Such distributions shall be cumulative, shall accrue from and include the original date of issuance of the Series D Preferred Units or from the most recent Distribution Payment Date to which full cumulative distributions have been paid on the Series D Preferred Units, and will be payable (i) quarterly (such quarterly periods for purposes of payment and accrual will be the quarterly periods ending on the dates specified in this sentence and not calendar quarters) in arrears, on the last calendar day of March, June, September and December of each year commencing on December 30, 2011, and (ii) in the event of a redemption of Series D Preferred Units, on the date on which the Series D Preferred Units are redeemed (each a “Series D Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date”).
