Federal Income Tax Considerations The following discussion supplements and updates the disclosures under “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations” in the prospectus dated August 15, 2022, contained in our Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-266885) filed with the SEC on August 15, 2022.
Removed
Capitalized terms herein that are not otherwise defined shall have the same meaning as when used in such disclosures (as supplemented). On December 29, 2022, the Internal Revenue Service promulgated final Treasury Regulations under Sections 897, 1441, 1445, and 1446 of the Code that were, in part, intended to coordinate various withholding regimes for non-U.S. shareholders.
Removed
The withholding rules applicable to ordinary REIT dividends paid to a non-U.S. shareholder (generally, a 30% rate of withholding on gross amounts unless otherwise reduced by treaty or effectively connected with such non-U.S. shareholder’s trade or business within the United States and proper certifications are provided) will apply to (a) that portion of any distribution paid by us that is not designated as a capital gain dividend, a return of basis or a distribution in excess of the non-U.S. shareholder’s adjusted basis in its stock that is treated as gain from the disposition of such stock and (b) any portion of a capital gain dividend paid by us that is not treated as gain attributable to the sale or exchange of a U.S. real property interest by reason of the recipient not owning more than 10% of a class of our stock that is regularly traded on an established securities market during the one-year period ending on the date of the capital gain dividend. ii.
Removed
The withholding rules under FIRPTA will apply to a distribution paid by us in excess of a non-U.S. shareholder’s adjusted basis in our stock, unless the interest in our stock is not a U.S. real property interest (for example, because we are a domestically controlled qualified investment entity) or the distribution is paid to a “withholding qualified holder.” A “withholding qualified holder” means a qualified holder (as defined below) and a foreign partnership all of the interests of which are held by qualified holders, including through one or more partnerships. iii.
Removed
The withholding rules under FIRPTA will apply to any portion of a capital gain dividend paid to a non-U.S. shareholder that is attributable to the sale or exchange of a U.S. real property interest, unless it is paid to a withholding qualified holder.
Removed
In the case of FIRPTA withholding under clause (ii) above, the applicable withholding rate is currently 15%, and in the case of FIRPTA withholding under clause (iii) above the withholding rate is currently 21%.
Removed
For purposes of FIRPTA withholding under clause (iii), whether a capital gain dividend is attributable to the sale or exchange of a U.S. real property interest is determined taking into account the general exception from FIRPTA distribution treatment for distributions paid to certain non-U.S. shareholders under which any distribution by us to a non-U.S. shareholder with respect to any class of stock which is regularly traded on an established securities market located in the United States is not treated as gain recognized from the sale or exchange of a U.S. real property interest if such non-U.S. shareholder did not own more than 10% of such class of stock at any time during the 1-year period ending on the date of such distribution.
Removed
To the extent inconsistent, these Treasury Regulations supersede the discussion on withholding contained in the above-referenced disclosures (as supplemented) under the heading “ Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations—Taxation of Non-U.S.
Removed
Shareholders .” However, if, notwithstanding these Treasury Regulations, we encounter difficulties in properly characterizing a distribution for purposes of the withholding rules, we may decide to withhold on such distribution at the highest possible U.S. federal withholding rate that we determine could apply. The Treasury Regulations also provide guidance regarding qualified foreign pension funds.
Removed
Accordingly, the last two sentences of the first paragraph under the heading “ Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations—Taxation of Non-U.S.
Removed
Shareholders—Qualified Foreign Pension Funds ” are hereby deleted and replaced with the following: Under Treasury Regulations, subject to the discussion below regarding “qualified holders,” a “qualified controlled entity” also is not generally treated as a foreign person for purposes of FIRPTA.
Removed
A qualified controlled entity generally includes a trust or corporation organized under the laws of a foreign country all of the interests of which are held by one or more qualified foreign pension funds either directly or indirectly through one or more qualified controlled entities.
Removed
Additionally, the following two paragraphs are added after the first paragraph under the heading “ Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations—Taxation of Shareholders and Potential Tax Considerations Relating to Their Investment in Common Shares or Preferred Shares—Taxation of Non-U.S.
Removed
Shareholders—Qualified Foreign Pension Funds ”: Treasury Regulations further require that a qualified foreign pension fund or qualified controlled entity will not be exempt from FIRPTA with respect to dispositions of U.S. real property interests or REIT distributions attributable to the same unless the qualified foreign pension fund or qualified controlled entity is a “qualified holder.” To be a qualified holder, a qualified foreign 5 pension fund or qualified controlled entity must satisfy one of two alternative tests at the time of the disposition of the U.S. real property interest or the REIT distribution.
Removed
Under the first test, a qualified foreign pension fund or qualified controlled entity is a qualified holder if it owned no U.S. real property interests as of the earliest date during an uninterrupted period ending on the date of the disposition or distribution during which it qualified as a qualified foreign pension fund or qualified controlled entity.
Removed
Alternatively, if a qualified foreign pension fund or qualified controlled entity held U.S. real property interests as of the earliest date during the period described in the preceding sentence, it can be a qualified holder only if it satisfies certain testing period requirements.
Removed
Treasury Regulations also provide that a foreign partnership all of the interests of which are held by qualified holders, including through one or more partnerships, may certify its status as such and will not be treated as a foreign person for purposes of withholding under Code Section 1445 (and Code Section 1446, as applicable).

This was followed by additional rate cuts in November and December of 2024, lowering the target rate to a range of 4.25% to 4.50%.
