The Series H Preferred Stock will not be redeemable before August 15, 2017, except under circumstances intended to preserve the Company's status as a real estate investment trust for federal and/or state income tax purposes and except as described below upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in this Articles Supplementary).
