    If the stock price is between two stock prices in the table or the effective date is between two effective dates in the table, the number of additional shares by which the conversion rate will be increased will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of additional shares set forth for the higher and lower stock prices and the earlier and later effective dates, as applicable, based on a 365- or 366-day year.

 

    If the stock price is greater than $22.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate.

 

    If the stock price is less than $10.69 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the conversion rate per $1,000 principal amount of the 2019 Notes exceed 93.5453 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the conversion rate as set forth under “Description of the Notes—Conversion Rate Adjustments” in the Convertible Senior Notes Preliminary Prospectus Supplement.

Use of Proceeds:    The Issuer estimates that the proceeds from the Convertible Senior Notes Offerings will be approximately $631.4 million (or $726.2 million if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full with respect to each series of the notes), after deducting the underwriting discount and other estimated expenses payable by the Issuer.

The Issuer’s operating partnership intends to use the net proceeds from the Convertible Senior Notes Offerings to defease approximately $488.7 million aggregate principal amount of senior mortgage indebtedness. In addition, the Issuer’s operating partnership may use a portion of the net proceeds from the Convertible Senior Notes Offerings, together with the net proceeds from the Common Stock Offering, to repay the outstanding balance under its revolving credit facility, to fund potential future acquisitions and for general corporate purposes (including additional repayments of borrowings outstanding from time to time under its revolving credit facility).
