as a &ldquo;sales agent&rdquo; and collectively as &ldquo;sales agents.&rdquo; The ATM equity distribution agreements with Citigroup,
Jefferies, Raymond James and Wells Fargo Securities provide that, in addition to the issuance and sale of common stock by us through

upon at the time of sale, we also may enter into forward sale agreements, between us and Citigroup, Jefferies, Raymond James and

when acting as agents for forward purchasers (as defined below), individually as a &ldquo;forward seller&rdquo; and collectively
as &ldquo;forward sellers.&rdquo; Upon entering into the ATM equity distribution agreements, we simultaneously terminated the

may be made in negotiated transactions, which may include block trades, or in transactions that are deemed to be &ldquo;at the

including sales made directly on the NYSE or sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange. The sales agents
are not required, individually or collectively, to sell any specific number of shares or dollar amount of our common stock, but
each sales agent will use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to sell shares
of our common stock in its capacity as sales agent on terms mutually agreeable to the sales agent and us.</P>

entities, when acting in this capacity, individually as a &ldquo;forward purchaser&rdquo; and collectively as &ldquo;forward purchasers.&rdquo;

through the applicable forward seller, sell a number of shares of our common stock equal to the number of shares of our common

at settlement equal to the number of shares underlying the particular forward sale agreement multiplied by the applicable forward
sale price. However, we may also elect to cash settle or net share settle a particular forward sale agreement, in which case we
may not receive any proceeds from the issuance of shares, and we will instead receive or pay cash (in the case of cash settlement)
or receive or deliver shares of our common stock (in the case of net share settlement).</P>

applicable forward seller, in the form of a reduced initial forward sale price under the related forward sale agreement with the
related forward purchaser, commissions at a mutually agreed rate that shall not be more than 2.0% of the gross sales price of all
borrowed shares of common stock sold by it as a forward seller. Each of the sales agents, the forward sellers and/or the forward
purchasers may be deemed an &ldquo;underwriter&rdquo; within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the compensation paid to the
sales agents or the forward sellers in the form of a reduced initial forward sale price under the related forward sale agreements
with the related forward purchaser may be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in">We are a fully integrated
REIT primarily focused on the ownership, acquisition, development and management of retail properties net leased to industry leading
tenants. We were founded in 1971 by our current Executive Chairman, Richard Agree, and our common stock was listed on the NYSE
in 1994.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in">Our assets are held by,
and all of our operations are conducted through, directly or indirectly, the Operating Partnership, of which we are the sole general
partner and in which we held a 99.2% interest as of March 20, 2020. Under the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership,
we, as the sole general partner, have exclusive responsibility and discretion in the management and control of the Operating Partnership.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in">As of March 20, 2020,
our portfolio consisted of 864 properties located in 46 states totaling approximately 15.9 million square feet of gross leasable
area.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in">As of March 20,
2020, our portfolio was approximately 99.2% leased and had a weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 9.8
years. A significant majority of our properties is leased to national tenants, and as of March 20, 2020, approximately 59.4%
of our annualized base rent was derived from tenants, or parent entities thereof, with an investment grade credit rating from
S&amp;P Global Ratings (acting through Standard &amp; Poor&rsquo;s Financial Services LLC), Moody&rsquo;s Investors Service,
Inc., Fitch Ratings, Inc. or the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. Substantially all of our tenants are
subject to net lease agreements. A net lease typically requires the tenant to be responsible for minimum monthly rent and
property operating expenses including property taxes, insurance and maintenance.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in">We were incorporated in
December 1993 under the laws of the State of Maryland. We believe that we have operated, and we intend to continue to operate,
in such a manner to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &ldquo;Code&rdquo;). In order to
maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must, among other things, distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income each year
and meet asset and income tests. Additionally, our charter limits ownership of our Company, directly or constructively, by any
single person to 9.8% of the value or number of shares, whichever is more restrictive, of our outstanding common stock and 9.8%
of the value of the aggregate of all of our outstanding stock, subject to certain exceptions. As a REIT, we are not subject to
federal income tax with respect to that portion of our income that is distributed currently to our stockholders. The requirements
to maintain our qualification as a REIT are discussed in greater detail in the accompanying prospectus. See &ldquo;Description
of Common Stock&thinsp;&mdash;&thinsp;Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer&rdquo; in the accompanying prospectus, and &ldquo;Material
Federal Income Tax Considerations&rdquo; in this prospectus supplement.</P>

        <P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In the event that we enter into any forward sale agreements,
before any issuance of shares of our common stock upon physical settlement of that particular forward sale agreement, such forward
sale agreement will be reflected in our diluted earnings per share calculations using the treasury stock method. Under this method,
the number of shares of our common stock used in calculating diluted earnings per share is deemed to be increased by the excess,
if any, of the number of shares of our common stock that would be issued upon full physical settlement of such forward sale agreement
over the number of shares of our common stock that could be purchased by us in the market (based on the average market price during
the period) using the proceeds receivable upon full physical settlement (based on the adjusted forward sale price at the end of
the reporting period). Consequently, prior to physical settlement or net share settlement of a particular forward sale agreement
and subject to the occurrence of certain events, we anticipate there will be no dilutive effect on our earnings per share except
during periods when the average market price of our common stock is above the applicable adjusted forward sale price under that
particular forward sale agreement, and subject to adjustment based on a floating interest rate factor equal to a specified daily
rate less a spread, and subject to decrease by an amount per share specified in that particular forward sale agreement on each
of certain dates specified in that particular forward sale agreement. However, if we decide to physically settle or net share
settle a particular forward sale agreement, delivery of our shares on any physical settlement or net share settlement of such
forward sale agreement will result in dilution to our earnings per share and return on equity.&nbsp;</P></TD></TR>

December 2019, COVID-19 has spread globally, including to every state in the United States. On March 11, 2020, the World Health

has had, and another pandemic in the future could have, repercussions across regional and global economies and financial markets.
The outbreak of COVID-19 in many countries has significantly adversely impacted global economic activity and has contributed to
significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The global impact of the outbreak has been rapidly evolving
and, as cases of COVID-19 have continued to be identified in additional countries, many countries, including the United States,
have reacted by instituting quarantines, mandating business and school closures and restricting travel.</P>

restrictions on travel, &ldquo;shelter in place&rdquo; rules, restrictions on types of business that may continue to operate,
and/or restrictions on the types of construction projects that may continue. The Company expects that additional states and
cities will implement similar restrictions. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic is negatively impacting almost every industry
directly or indirectly. A number of our tenants have announced temporary closures of their stores and requested rent deferral
or rent abatement during this pandemic. Many experts predict that the outbreak will trigger, or even has already triggered, a
period of global economic slowdown or a global recession. The COVID-19 pandemic, or a future pandemic, could have material
and adverse effects on our ability to successfully operate and on our financial condition, results of operations and cash
flows due to, among other factors:</P>

others. Additional closures by our tenants of their stores and early terminations by our tenants of their leases could reduce our

development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the full adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Nevertheless,
the COVID-19 pandemic presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to our performance, financial condition, results of operations,
cash flows and performance. Moreover, many risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2019 should be interpreted as heightened risks as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.</P>

basis based on a floating interest rate factor equal to the overnight bank funding rate less a spread and will be decreased on
certain dates, by amounts related to expected dividends on shares of our common stock during the term of a particular forward sale
agreement. If the overnight bank funding rate is less than the spread on any day, the interest factor will result in a reduction
of the forward sale price for such day. If the weighted average price for shares of our common stock specified in a particular
forward sale agreement during any applicable unwind period under such forward sale agreement is above the applicable forward sale
price, in the case of cash settlement, we would pay the applicable forward purchaser under such forward sale agreement an amount
in cash equal to the difference or, in the case of net share settlement, we would deliver to the applicable forward purchaser a
number of shares of our common stock having a value equal to the difference. Thus, we could be responsible for a potentially substantial
cash payment in the case of cash settlement. If such weighted average price during any applicable unwind period under such forward
sale agreement is below the applicable forward sale price, in the case of cash settlement, we would be paid the difference in cash
by the forward purchaser under the forward sale agreement or, in the case of net share settlement, we would receive from the forward
purchaser a number of shares of our common stock having a value equal to the difference. See &ldquo;Plan of Distribution&thinsp;&mdash;&thinsp;Forward

to settle any forward sale agreement for cash and the settlement price is below the applicable forward sale price, we would be
entitled to receive a cash payment from the applicable forward purchaser. Under Section 1032 of the Code, generally, no gains and
losses are recognized by a corporation in dealing in its own shares, including pursuant to a &ldquo;securities futures contract,&rdquo;
as defined in the Code by reference to the Exchange Act. Although we believe that any amount received by us in exchange for our
stock would qualify for the exemption under Section 1032 of the Code, because it is not entirely clear whether a forward sale agreement
qualifies as a &ldquo;securities futures contract,&rdquo; the federal income tax treatment of any cash settlement payment we receive
is uncertain. In the event that we recognize a significant gain from the cash settlement of any forward sale agreement, we might
not be able to satisfy the gross income requirements applicable to REITs under the Code. In that case, we may be able to rely upon
the relief provisions under the Code in order to avoid the loss of our REIT status. Even if the relief provisions apply, we will
be subject to a 100% tax on the greater of&thinsp; (i) the excess of 75% of our gross income (excluding gross income from prohibited
transactions) over the amount of such income attributable to sources that qualify under the 75% test or (ii) the excess of 95%
of our gross income (excluding gross income from prohibited transactions) over the amount of such gross income attributable to
sources that qualify under the 95% test, as discussed in the section titled &ldquo;Material Federal Income Tax Considerations&rdquo;
in this prospectus supplement, multiplied in either case by a fraction intended to reflect our profitability. In the event that
these relief provisions were not available, we could lose our REIT status under the Code.</P>

the accompanying prospectus and the documents we incorporate by reference each contain forward-looking statements within the meaning
of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered
by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
and include this statement for purposes of complying with these safe harbor provisions. Also, documents we subsequently file with
the SEC and incorporate by reference may contain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain
assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words &ldquo;anticipate,&rdquo;
 &ldquo;estimate,&rdquo; &ldquo;should,&rdquo; &ldquo;expect,&rdquo; &ldquo;believe,&rdquo; &ldquo;intend,&rdquo; &ldquo;may,&rdquo;
 &ldquo;will,&rdquo; &ldquo;seek,&rdquo; &ldquo;could,&rdquo; &ldquo;project&rdquo; or similar expressions. You should not rely
on forward-looking statements since they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which are, in some cases,
beyond our control and which could materially affect our results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, performance or
future achievements or events. Currently, one of the most significant factors, however, is the potential adverse effect of the
current pandemic of the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, on the financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance
of the Company and its tenants, the real estate market and the global economy and financial markets. The extent to which COVID-19
impacts us and our tenants will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence,
including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and
the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others. Moreover, investors are cautioned
to interpret many of the risks identified in the risk factors discussed in this prospectus supplement and incorporated by reference

Federal Income Tax Considerations&rdquo; in Agree Realty Corporation&rsquo;s base prospectus (the &ldquo;Prospectus&rdquo;) included
in the Company&rsquo;s Registration Statement on Form S-3ASR filed on June 2, 2017, as amended and supplemented, in light of the
signing into law of H.R. 1, commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, on December 22, 2017. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
is a far-reaching and complex revision to the federal income tax laws with disparate and, in some cases, countervailing impacts
on different categories of taxpayers and industries, and will require subsequent rulemaking in a number of areas. The long-term
impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on us, our stockholders, our tenants and the real estate industry cannot be reliably predicted
at this stage of the new law&rsquo;s implementation.</P>

31, 2019, we have qualified to be taxed as a REIT under the Code, and our current and proposed method of operation will enable
us to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Code. A copy of this opinion is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement
of which this prospectus supplement is a part. It must be emphasized that the opinion of Honigman LLP is based on various assumptions
relating to our organization and operation, and is conditioned upon representations and covenants made by our management regarding
our assets and the past, present, and future conduct of our business operations. While we intend to operate so that we will qualify
as a REIT, given the highly complex nature of the rules governing REITs, the ongoing importance of factual determinations, and
the possibility of future changes in our circumstances, no assurance can be given by Honigman LLP or by us that we will so qualify
for any particular year. The opinion was expressed as of the date issued and will not cover subsequent periods. Honigman LLP will
have no obligation to advise us or the holders of our common stock of any subsequent change in the matters stated, represented
or assumed, or of any subsequent change in the applicable law. You should be aware that opinions of counsel are not binding on
the IRS or any court, and no assurance can be given that the IRS will not challenge, or a court will not rule contrary to, the
conclusions set forth in such opinions.</P>

organizational structure and entity classification for federal income tax purposes of certain of our affiliated entities, which
may not have been reviewed by Honigman LLP. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the actual results of our operations for
any taxable year satisfy such requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT.</P>

corporate and shareholder levels that results from investment in a corporation or an entity treated as a corporation for federal
income tax purposes. Rather, income generated by a REIT generally is taxed only at the shareholder level upon a distribution of
dividends by the REIT. Net operating losses, foreign tax credits and other tax attributes of a REIT do not pass through to the
shareholders of the REIT, subject to special rules for certain items such as capital gains recognized by REITs. See &ldquo;Federal

 &nbsp;In the case of a REIT that is a partner in a partnership (treating, as a partner of a partnership for this purpose, a member
of a limited liability company that is classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes), Treasury Regulations provide
that the REIT will be deemed to own its proportionate share of the assets of the partnership, and the REIT will be deemed to be
entitled to the income of the partnership attributable to such share. The character of the assets and gross income of the partnership
(determined at the level of the partnership) are the same in the hands of the REIT for purposes of Section 856 of the Code, including
satisfying the gross income and asset tests described below. Accordingly, our proportionate share of the assets, liabilities, and
items of income of the Operating Partnership and any of our other subsidiaries that are partnerships (provided that the subsidiary
partnerships are not taxable as corporations for federal income tax purposes) is treated as our assets, liabilities and items of
income for purposes of applying the requirements described in this summary (including the gross income and asset tests described
below). One exception to the rule described above is that, for purposes of the prohibition against holding securities having a
value greater than 10% of the total value of the outstanding securities of any one issuer discussed under &ldquo;&mdash; Asset
Tests&rdquo; below, a REIT&rsquo;s proportionate share of any securities held by a partnership is not based solely on its capital
interest in the partnership but also includes its interest (as a creditor) in certain debt securities of the partnership (excluding
 &ldquo;straight debt&rdquo; and certain other securities described under &ldquo;&mdash; Asset Tests&rdquo; below). A summary of
certain rules governing the federal income taxation of partnerships and their partners is provided below in &ldquo;Tax Aspects
of Investment in the Operating Partnership.&rdquo;</P>

a REIT owns a corporate subsidiary that is a &ldquo;qualified REIT subsidiary,&rdquo; that subsidiary is disregarded for federal
income tax purposes, and all assets, liabilities and items of income, deduction and credit of the subsidiary are treated as assets,
liabilities and items of income, deduction and credit of the REIT itself, including for purposes of applying the gross income and
asset tests applicable to REITs summarized below. A qualified REIT subsidiary is any corporation, other than a TRS (described below),
that is wholly-owned by a REIT, or by other disregarded subsidiaries, or by a combination of the two. Other entities we wholly
own, including single member limited liability companies, are also generally disregarded as separate entities for federal income
tax purposes, including for purposes of applying the REIT income and asset tests described below. Disregarded subsidiaries, along
with our subsidiary partnerships, are sometimes referred to as &ldquo;pass-through subsidiaries.&rdquo; In the event that any of
our disregarded subsidiaries ceases to be wholly-owned by us (for example, if any equity interest in the subsidiary is acquired
by a person other than us or one of our other disregarded subsidiaries), the subsidiary&rsquo;s separate existence would no longer
be disregarded for federal income tax purposes. Instead, it would have multiple owners and would be treated as either a partnership
or a taxable corporation. Such an event could, depending on the circumstances, adversely affect our ability to satisfy the various
asset and gross income requirements applicable to REITs, including the requirement that REITs generally may not own, directly or
indirectly, more than 10% (as measured by either voting power or value) of the securities of any one issuer. See &ldquo;&mdash;

REIT may jointly elect with a subsidiary corporation, whether or not wholly-owned, to treat the subsidiary corporation as a TRS
of the REIT. In addition, a corporation (other than a REIT or qualified REIT subsidiary) is treated as a TRS if a TRS of a REIT
owns directly or indirectly securities possessing more than 35% of the total voting power, or having more than 35% of the total
value, of the outstanding securities of the corporation. We have interests in several corporations treated as TRSs. The separate
existence of a TRS or other taxable corporation, unlike a disregarded subsidiary as discussed above, is not ignored for federal
income tax purposes. Accordingly, our TRSs are subject to corporate income tax on their earnings, and this may reduce the aggregate
cash flow that we and our subsidiaries generate and thus our ability to make distributions to our shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">A parent REIT is not treated as holding
the assets of a taxable subsidiary corporation or as receiving any undistributed income that the subsidiary earns. Rather, the
stock issued by the subsidiary is an asset in the hands of the parent REIT, and the REIT recognizes, as income, any dividends that
it receives from the subsidiary. This treatment can affect the income and asset test calculations that apply to the REIT. Because
a parent REIT does not include the assets and undistributed income of taxable subsidiary corporations in determining the parent&rsquo;s
compliance with the REIT requirements, these entities may be used by the parent REIT indirectly to undertake activities that the
applicable rules might otherwise preclude the parent REIT from doing directly or through pass-through subsidiaries (for example,
activities that give rise to certain categories of income, such as management fees, that do not qualify under the 75% and 95% gross
income tests described below).</P>

of net interest expense by businesses could also apply to any TRS.</P>

gross income from sales of inventory or dealer property in &ldquo;prohibited transactions,&rdquo; must derive from (1) investments
in real property or mortgages on real property, including &ldquo;rents from real property,&rdquo; dividends received from other
REITs, interest income derived from mortgage loans secured by real property (including certain types of mortgage-backed securities),
interest income derived from mortgage loans secured by both real and personal property if the fair market value of such personal
property does not exceed 15% of the total fair market value of all property securing the loans, and gains from the sale of real
estate assets, or (2) certain kinds of temporary investment of new capital. Although a debt instrument issued by a &ldquo;publicly
offered REIT&rdquo; (i.e., a REIT that is required to file annual and periodic reports with the SEC under the Exchange Act) is
treated as a &ldquo;real estate asset&rdquo; for purposes of the asset tests described below, neither interest on, nor gain from
the sale of, such debt instruments is treated as qualifying income for purposes of the 75% gross income test unless the debt instrument

any transaction entered into in the normal course of our business primarily to manage risk of interest rate or price changes or
currency fluctuations with respect to borrowings made or to be made by us to acquire or carry real estate assets, (ii) any transactions
entered into primarily to manage the risk of currency fluctuations with respect to any item of income or gain (or property which

from the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership&rsquo;s income derives largely from rent attributable to our properties
(which properties are referred to in this section as the &ldquo;Properties&rdquo;). The Operating Partnership also derives income
from its TRSs insofar as they pay dividends on shares owned by the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership does not, and
is not expected to, charge rent that is based in whole or in part on the income or profits of any person (but does charge rent
based on a fixed percentage or percentages of receipts or sales). The Operating Partnership does not, and is not anticipated to,
derive rent attributable to personal property leased in connection with real property that exceeds 15% of the total rent for such
property.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">In addition, we do not believe that we derive
(through the Operating Partnership) rent from a Related Party Tenant. However, the determination of whether we own 10% or more
(as measured by either voting power or value) of any tenant is made after the application of complex attribution rules under which
we will be treated as owning interests in tenants that are owned by our &ldquo;Ten Percent Shareholders.&rdquo; In identifying
our Ten Percent Shareholders, each individual or entity will be treated as owning shares held by related individuals and entities.
Accordingly, we cannot be absolutely certain whether all Related Party Tenants have been or will be identified. Although rent derived
from a Related Party Tenant will not qualify as rents from real property and, therefore, will not be qualifying income under the
75% or 95% gross income test, we believe that the aggregate amount of any such rental income (together with any other nonqualifying
income) in any taxable year will not cause us to exceed the limits on nonqualifying income under such gross income tests.</P>

services with respect to the Properties (and expects to provide such services with respect to any newly acquired properties) through
certain TRSs. Because the services are provided through our TRSs, the provision of such services will not cause the amounts received
by us (through our ownership interest in the Operating Partnership) with respect to the Properties to fail to qualify as rents
from real property for purposes of the 75% and 95% gross income tests.</P>

These distributions will be classified as dividend income to the extent of the earnings and profits of the distributing corporation.
Such distributions will generally constitute qualifying income for purposes of the 95% gross income test, but not for purposes
of the 75% gross income test.</P>

violation in lieu of a loss of REIT status. If we fail to qualify for taxation as a REIT in any taxable year, and the relief provisions
do not apply, we will be subject to tax on our taxable income at the applicable corporate tax rate (currently 21%). Distributions
to shareholders in any year in which we fail to qualify will not be deductible by us, nor will they be required to be made. In
such event, to the extent of current and accumulated earnings and profits, all distributions to shareholders will be taxable as
dividends and, subject to certain limitations in the Code, corporate distributees may be eligible for the dividends received deduction.
Unless entitled to relief under specific statutory provisions, we will also be disqualified from taxation as a REIT for the four
taxable years following the year of termination of our REIT status. It is not possible to state whether in all circumstances we
would be entitled to this statutory relief.</P>

transaction&rdquo; is subject to a 100% excise tax. The term &ldquo;prohibited transaction&rdquo; includes a sale or other disposition
of property (other than foreclosure property) that is held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or
business. The Operating Partnership owns interests in real property that is situated on the periphery of certain of the Properties.
We and the Operating Partnership believe that this peripheral property is not held primarily for sale to customers and that the
sale of such peripheral property will not be in the ordinary course of the Operating Partnership&rsquo;s business. We intend to
conduct our operations so that no asset owned by us or our pass-through subsidiaries will be held primarily for sale to customers,
and that a sale of any such asset will not be a prohibited transaction subject to the 100% excise tax. Whether property is held
primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of our business depends, however, on the facts and circumstances as they
exist from time to time, including those relating to a particular property. As a result, no assurance can be given that the IRS
will not recharacterize property we own as property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of our business,
or that we can comply with certain safe-harbor provisions of the Code that would prevent such treatment. In the event we determine
that a property, the ultimate sale of which is expected to result in taxable gain, will be regarded as held primarily for sale
to customers in the ordinary course of trade or business, we intend to cause such property to be acquired by or transferred to
a TRS so that gain from such sale will be subject to regular corporate income tax as discussed above under &ldquo;&mdash; Effect

law, after there was a default (or default was imminent) on a lease of the property or on a mortgage loan held by the REIT and
secured by the property, (2) the loan or lease related to which was acquired by the REIT at a time when default was not imminent
or anticipated, and (3) that such REIT makes a proper election to treat as foreclosure property. REITs are subject to tax at the
corporate tax rate (currently 21%) on any net income from foreclosure property, including any gain from the disposition of the
foreclosure property, other than income that would otherwise be qualifying income for purposes of the 75% gross income test. Any
gain from the sale of property for which a foreclosure property election has been made will not be subject to the 100% excise tax
on gains from prohibited transactions described above, even if the property would otherwise constitute dealer property (<I>i.e</I>.,
property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business) in the hands of the selling REIT. A TRS may operate

Partnership, which is classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. The Operating Partnership, together with any
entities treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes that we hold an interest in, are referred to as the &ldquo;Partnerships.&rdquo;
In general, partnerships are &ldquo;pass-through&rdquo; entities that are not subject to federal income tax. Rather, partners are
allocated their proportionate shares of the items of income, gain, loss, deduction, and credit of a partnership, and are potentially
subject to tax thereon, without regard to whether the partners receive a distribution from the partnership. We will include our
proportionate share of the foregoing partnership items in computing our &ldquo;REIT taxable income.&rdquo; See &ldquo;Taxation
of the Company &mdash; Income Tests&rdquo; above. Any resultant increase in our &ldquo;REIT taxable income&rdquo; will increase
the amount we must distribute to satisfy the REIT distribution requirement (see &ldquo;Taxation of the Company &mdash; Annual Distribution
Requirement&rdquo; above) but will generally not be subject to federal income tax in our hands provided that we distribute such
income to our shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Our interests in the Partnerships involve
special tax considerations, including the possibility of a challenge by the IRS to the status of the Operating Partnership or any
other partnership as a partnership (as opposed to an association taxable as a corporation) for federal income tax purposes. In
general, under certain Treasury Regulations that became effective January 1, 1997 (referred to in this section as the &ldquo;Check-the-Box
Regulations&rdquo;), an unincorporated entity with at least two members may elect to be classified either as a corporation or as
a partnership for federal income tax purposes. If such an entity does not make an election, it generally will be treated as a partnership
for federal income tax purposes. For such an entity that was in existence prior to January 1, 1997, such as the Operating Partnership,
the entity will have the same classification (unless it elects otherwise) that it claimed under the rules in effect prior to the
Check-the-Box Regulations. In addition, the federal income tax classification of an entity that was in existence prior to January
1, 1997 will be respected for all periods prior to January 1, 1997 if&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the entity had a reasonable basis for its
claimed classification, (2) the entity and all members of the entity recognized the federal income tax consequences of any changes
in the entity&rsquo;s classification within the 60 months prior to January 1, 1997, and (3) neither the entity nor any member of
the entity was notified in writing by a taxing authority on or before May 8, 1996 that the classification of the entity was under
examination. We believe that the Operating Partnership and any other partnerships in which we previously directly or indirectly
held an interest that existed prior to January 1, 1997 reasonably claimed partnership classification under the Treasury Regulations
relating to entity classification in effect prior to January 1, 1997, and such classification should be respected for federal income
tax purposes. Each of them intends to continue to be classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, and none of them
intends to elect to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation under the Check-the-Box Regulations.</P>

preclude us from satisfying the asset tests and possibly the income tests (see &ldquo;Taxation of the Company &mdash; Income Tests&rdquo;

we were eligible for relief under the relief provisions described above. See &ldquo;Taxation of the Company &mdash; Failure to

change in the status of any of the Partnerships for federal income tax purposes might be treated as a taxable event, in which case
we could have taxable income that is subject to the REIT distribution requirement without receiving any cash.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code and
applicable Treasury Regulations, income, gain, loss, and deduction attributable to appreciated or depreciated property that is
contributed to a partnership in exchange for an interest in the partnership (such as the Properties contributed to the Operating
Partnership by the limited partners of the Operating Partnership) must be allocated in such a manner that the contributing partner
is charged with, or benefits from, the unrealized gain or unrealized loss, respectively, associated with the property at the time
of the contribution. The amount of such unrealized gain or unrealized loss is equal to the difference between the fair market value
of the contributed property at the time of contribution and the adjusted tax basis of such property at the time of contribution
(referred to in this section as the &ldquo;Book-Tax Difference&rdquo;). Such allocations are solely for federal income tax purposes
and do not affect the book capital accounts or other economic or legal arrangements among the partners. The Operating Partnership
was formed with contributions of appreciated property (including the Properties contributed by the limited partners of the Operating
Partnership). Consequently, the Operating Partnership&rsquo;s partnership agreement requires allocations to be made in a manner
consistent with Section 704(c) of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations. If a partner contributes cash to a partnership
at a time when the partnership holds appreciated (or depreciated) property, the applicable Treasury Regulations provide for a similar
allocation of these items to the other (that is, the pre-existing) partners. These rules may apply to any contribution by us to
the Partnerships of cash proceeds received from offerings of our securities, including any offering of common stock contemplated
by this prospectus supplement.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">In general, the partners that contributed
appreciated Properties to the Operating Partnership will be allocated less depreciation, and increased taxable gain on sale, of
such Properties. This will tend to eliminate the Book-Tax Difference. However, the special allocation rules of Section 704(c) and
the applicable Treasury Regulations do not always rectify the Book-Tax Difference on an annual basis or with respect to a specific
taxable transaction such as a sale. Under the applicable Treasury Regulations, special allocations of income and gain and depreciation
deductions must be made on a property-by-property basis. Depreciation deductions resulting from the carryover basis of a contributed
property are used to eliminate the Book-Tax Difference by allocating such deductions to the non-contributing partners (for example,
to us) up to the amount of their share of book depreciation. Any remaining tax depreciation for the contributed property would
be allocated to the partners who contributed the property. The Operating Partnership has generally elected the &ldquo;traditional
method&rdquo; of rectifying the Book-Tax Difference under the applicable Treasury Regulations, pursuant to which if depreciation
deductions are less than the non-contributing partners&rsquo; share of book depreciation, then the non-contributing partners lose
the benefit of the tax deductions to the extent of the difference. When the property is sold, the resulting tax gain is used to
the extent possible to eliminate any remaining Book-Tax Difference. Under the traditional method, it is possible that the carryover
basis of the contributed assets in the hands of a Partnership may cause us to be allocated less depreciation and other deductions
than would otherwise be allocated to us. This may cause us to recognize taxable income in excess of cash proceeds, which might
adversely affect our ability to comply with the REIT distribution requirement. See &ldquo;Taxation of the Company &mdash; Annual
Distribution Requirement&rdquo; above.</P>

the particular facts and circumstances with respect to the particular transaction. No assurance can be given that any property

share of the tax paid by us on the retained capital gains, and to obtain from the IRS a refund to the extent its proportionate
share of the tax paid by us exceeds its actual federal income tax liability.</P>

REIT dividends even if such person holds more than 10% of the REIT&rsquo;s stock, a publicly traded partnership that is a withholding
foreign partnership that would be a United States real property holding corporation if it were a United States corporation, or
is designated as a qualified collective investment vehicle by the Secretary of the Treasury and is either fiscally transparent
within the meaning of the Code or required to include dividends in its gross income but entitled to a deduction for distributions
to its investors. Finally, capital gain dividends and non-dividend redemption and liquidating distributions to a qualified shareholder

employee pension and profit sharing trusts and individual retirement accounts, generally are exempt from federal income taxation.
However, they are subject to taxation on their unrelated business taxable income (which is referred to in this section as &ldquo;UBTI&rdquo;).
While many investments in real estate generate UBTI, the IRS has ruled that dividend distributions from a REIT to an exempt employee
pension trust do not constitute UBTI. Based on that ruling, and provided that (1) a tax-exempt shareholder has not held its common
shares as &ldquo;debt financed property&rdquo; within the meaning of the Code (that is, property the acquisition of which is financed
through a borrowing by the tax-exempt shareholder), and (2) the shares are not otherwise used in an unrelated trade or business,
we believe that distributions from us and income from the sale of our shares should not give rise to UBTI to a tax-exempt shareholder.</P>

UBTI rules, which generally will require them to characterize distributions from us as UBTI.</P>

(1) fails to furnish its taxpayer identification number, referred to in this section as a &ldquo;TIN&rdquo; (which, for an individual,

report payments of interest and dividends, or (4) under certain circumstances, fails to certify, under penalty of perjury, that
it has not been notified by the IRS that it is subject to backup withholding for failure to report interest and dividend payments.
Backup withholding will not apply with respect to payments made to certain exempt recipients, such as corporations and tax-exempt
organizations. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding their qualification for exemption from backup
withholding and the procedure for obtaining such an exemption. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the amount
of any backup withholding with respect to a payment to a holder of our common shares will be allowed as a credit against such holder&rsquo;s
federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that the required information is furnished to the
IRS. In addition, we may be required to withhold a portion of capital gain distributions to, or gross proceeds from our redemption

sale agreement will be reflected in our diluted earnings per share, return on equity and dividends per share calculations using
the treasury stock method. Under this method, the number of shares of our common stock used in calculating diluted earnings per
share, return on equity and dividends per share is deemed to be increased by the excess, if any, of the number of shares of our
common stock that would be issued upon full physical settlement of that particular forward sale agreement over the number of shares
of our common stock that could be purchased by us in the market (based on the average market price during the relevant period)
using the proceeds receivable upon full physical settlement (based on the adjusted forward sale price at the end of the relevant
reporting period). Consequently, before physical or net share settlement of a particular forward sale agreement and subject to
the occurrence of certain events, we anticipate there will be no dilutive effect on our earnings per share, except during periods

settlement, we may, subject to certain conditions, elect cash settlement or net share settlement for all or a portion of our obligations
under a particular forward sale agreement if we conclude that it is in our interest to do so. For example, we may conclude that
it is in our interest to cash settle or net share settle a particular forward sale agreement if we have no then-current use for
all or a portion of the net proceeds that we would receive upon physical settlement. In addition, subject to certain conditions,
we may elect to accelerate the settlement of all or a portion of the number of shares of our common stock underlying a particular

settle all or a portion of any forward sale agreement by issuing and delivering shares of our common stock, we will receive an
amount of cash from the relevant forward purchaser equal to the product of the forward sale price per share under that particular
forward sale agreement and the number of shares of our common stock related to such election. In the event that we elect to cash
settle, the settlement amount will be generally related to (1) (a) the arithmetic average of the volume-weighted average price
of our common stock on each day during the relevant unwind period under the particular forward sale agreement on which the relevant
forward purchaser or its affiliate purchases shares of our common stock in connection with unwinding its related hedge position
minus (b) the arithmetic average of the applicable forward sale price on each such day; multiplied by (2) the number of shares
of our common stock underlying the particular forward sale agreement subject to cash settlement. In the event we elect to net share
settle, the settlement amount will be generally related to (1) (a) the weighted average price at which the relevant forward purchaser
or its affiliate purchases shares of our common stock during the relevant unwind period under the particular forward sale agreement
minus (b) the weighted average of the applicable forward sale price on each such day; multiplied by (2) the number of shares of
our common stock underlying the particular forward sale agreement subject to such net share settlement. If this settlement amount
is a negative number, the relevant forward purchaser will pay us the absolute value of that amount (in the case of cash settlement)
or deliver to us a number of shares of our common stock having a value, determined pursuant to the terms of the relevant forward
sale agreement, equal to the absolute value of such amount (in the event of net share settlement). If this settlement amount is
a positive number, we will pay the relevant forward purchaser that amount (in the case of cash settlement) or deliver to the relevant
forward purchaser a number of shares of our common stock having a value, determined pursuant to the terms of the relevant forward
sale agreement, equal to such amount (in the event of net share settlement). In connection with any cash settlement or net share
settlement, we would expect the relevant forward purchaser or its affiliate to purchase shares of our common stock in secondary
market transactions for delivery to third-party stock lenders in order to close out the forward purchaser&rsquo;s hedge position
in respect of the particular forward sale agreement and, if applicable, for delivery to us under a net share settlement. The purchase
of shares of our common stock in connection with the relevant forward purchaser or its affiliate unwinding the forward purchaser&rsquo;s
hedge positions could cause the price of our common stock to increase over time (or prevent or reduce the amount of a decrease
over time), thereby increasing the amount of cash we owe to the relevant forward purchaser (or decreasing the amount of cash that
the relevant forward purchaser owes us) upon cash settlement or increasing the number of shares of our common stock that we are
obligated to deliver to the relevant forward purchaser (or decreasing the number of shares of our common stock that the relevant
forward purchaser is obligated to deliver to us) upon net share settlement of the particular forward sale agreement. See &ldquo;Risk

shelf registration statement that we have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &ldquo;SEC&rdquo;) as a &ldquo;well-known
seasoned issuer&rdquo; as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the &ldquo;Securities Act&rdquo;).
Under the automatic shelf registration process, we may, over time sell any combination of the securities described in this prospectus
or in any applicable prospectus supplement in one or more offerings. The exhibits to our registration statement contain the full
text of certain contracts and other important documents we have summarized in this prospectus. Since these summaries may not contain
all the information that you may find important in deciding whether to purchase the securities we offer, you should review the
full text of these documents. The registration statement and the exhibits can be obtained from the SEC as indicated under the sections
entitled &ldquo;Where You Can Find More Information&rdquo; and &ldquo;Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference.&rdquo; This
prospectus only provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. As allowed by SEC rules, this prospectus
does not contain all of the information you can find in the registration statement or the exhibits to the registration statement.
Each time we sell securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement that will contain specific information about the terms of
that offering, including the specific amounts, prices and terms of the securities offered. A prospectus supplement may also add,

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0pt; text-indent: 0.25in">We are a fully integrated real estate
investment trust (&ldquo;REIT&rdquo;) primarily focused on the ownership, acquisition, development and management of retail properties
net leased to industry leading tenants. We were founded in 1971 by our current Executive Chairman, Richard Agree, and our common
stock was listed on the NYSE in 1994.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0pt; text-indent: 0.25in">As of March 31, 2017, our portfolio
consisted of 377 properties located in 43 states and totaling approximately 7.3 million square feet of gross leasable area.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0pt; text-indent: 23.3pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0pt; text-indent: 0.25in">As of March 31, 2017, our portfolio
was approximately 99.6% leased and had a weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 10.6 years. A significant majority
of our properties is leased to national tenants, and as of March 31, 2017, approximately 45% of our annualized base rent was derived
from tenants, or parents thereof, with an investment grade credit rating. Substantially all of our tenants are subject to net lease
agreements. A net lease typically requires the tenant to be responsible for minimum monthly rent and property operating expenses
including property taxes, insurance and maintenance.</P>

and in which we held a 98.7% interest as of March 31, 2017. Under the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership, we, as
the sole general partner, have exclusive responsibility and discretion in the management and control of the Operating Partnership.</P>

under the laws of the State of Maryland. We believe that we have operated, and we intend to continue to operate, in such a manner
to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &ldquo;Code&rdquo;). In order to maintain our qualification
as a REIT, we must, among other things, distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income each year and meet asset and income
tests. Additionally, our charter limits ownership of our company, directly or constructively, by any single person to 9.8% of the
value of our outstanding common stock and 9.8% of the value of the aggregate of all of our outstanding stock, subject to certain
exceptions. As a REIT, we are not subject to federal income tax with respect to that portion of our income that is distributed
currently to our stockholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0pt; text-indent: 0.25in">The ratios of earnings to combined
fixed charges and preferred dividends were computed by dividing earnings by the aggregate of fixed charges and preferred dividends.
We had no preferred dividend requirement in any of the foregoing periods. Therefore, the ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges
and preferred stock dividends are the same as the ratio of earnings to fixed charges for such years. Earnings were calculated by
adding certain fixed charges (consisting of interest on indebtedness and amortization of finance costs) to our income before extraordinary
items. Fixed charges consist of interest costs, whether expensed or capitalized and amortization of debt issuance costs.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.25in">Subject to certain exceptions specified in
our charter, our charter provides that no holder, other than an excepted holder, may beneficially own, or be deemed to own by virtue
of the attribution provisions of the Code, more than 9.8% (in value or in number of shares, whichever is more restrictive) of the
outstanding shares of our common stock, or more than 9.8% (in value) of the aggregate of the outstanding shares of all classes
and series of our stock (collectively, the &ldquo;Equity Stock&rdquo;). We refer to each of these restrictions as an &ldquo;Ownership
Limit&rdquo; and collectively as the &ldquo;Ownership Limits.&rdquo; Our board of directors may, in its sole and absolute discretion,
prospectively or retroactively, waive either or both of the Ownership Limits with respect to a particular stockholder or establish
a different limit on ownership (an &ldquo;excepted holder limit&rdquo;), which excepted holder limit is subject to adjustment from
time to time, if our board of directors makes certain determinations set forth in our charter. As a condition of any such exemption,
our board of directors may require a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (&ldquo;IRS&rdquo;) or an opinion of counsel satisfactory
to our board of directors in its sole and absolute discretion, as specified in our charter, in order to determine or ensure our
status as a REIT, or such representations and/or undertakings from the person requesting the waiver as our board of directors may
require in its sole and absolute discretion to make such determinations. Notwithstanding the receipt of any such ruling or opinion,
our board of directors may impose such conditions or restrictions as it deems appropriate in connection with granting such an exception.
Subject to the provisions of our charter, our charter provides that an underwriter or placement agent that participates in a public
offering or a private placement of our Equity Stock, or an initial purchaser of our Equity Stock in a transaction reliant upon
Rule 144A, may beneficially own or constructively own shares of Equity Stock in excess of the Ownership Limits, but only to the
extent necessary to facilitate such public offering, private placement or Rule 144A transaction. The foregoing restrictions on
transferability and ownership will not apply if the board of directors determines that it is no longer in our best interests to
continue to qualify as a REIT. In addition, our charter provides that no person may beneficially or constructively own shares of
Equity Stock to the extent that such ownership would result in our being closely held within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the
Code or which would otherwise result in our failing to qualify as a REIT. If shares of Equity Stock which would cause us to be
beneficially owned by less than 100 persons are issued or transferred to any person, our charter provides that such issuance or
transfer shall be void ab initio, and the intended transferee would acquire no rights to the stock; however, the board of directors
may waive this transfer restriction if it determines that such transfer would not adversely affect our ability to continue to qualify
as a REIT. Our charter provides that shares transferred in excess of the Ownership Limits and shares transferred that would cause
us to be closely held or otherwise fail to qualify as a REIT will be automatically transferred to one or more trusts for the exclusive
benefit of one or more charitable beneficiaries. Such transfer will be deemed to be effective as of the close of business on the
business day prior to the purported transfer. Our charter further provides that the Prohibited Owner (as defined herein) will have
no rights in the shares held by the trustee and will not benefit economically from ownership of any such shares held in trust by
the trustee, will have no rights to dividends or other distributions and will not possess any rights to vote or other rights attributable
to such shares held in trust. While these shares are held in trust, the trustee will be entitled to vote and to share in any dividends
or other distributions with respect to shares of Equity Stock held in trust, which rights will be exercised for the exclusive benefit
of the charitable beneficiary. Within 20 days of receiving notice from us that shares of Equity Stock have been transferred to
the trust, the trustee will sell the shares to any person who may hold such shares without violating the limitations on ownership
and transfer set forth in our charter. Upon such sale, the interest of the charitable beneficiary in the shares sold will terminate,
and the trustee will distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the person who owned the shares of Equity Stock in violation of
the Ownership Limits or the other ownership restrictions described above (the &ldquo;Prohibited Owner&rdquo;), who will receive
the lesser of (1) the price paid by the Prohibited Owner for the shares or, if the Prohibited Owner did not give value for the
shares in connection with the event causing the shares to be held in the trust, the market price of the shares on the day of the
event causing the shares to be held in the trust and (2) the price per share received by the trustee from the sale or other disposition
of the shares held in the trust. The trustee will reduce the amount payable to the Prohibited Owner by the amount of dividends
and other distributions that have been paid to the Prohibited Owner and are owed by the Prohibited Owner to the trustee and will
pay any net sales proceeds in excess of the amount payable to the Prohibited Owner to the charitable beneficiary. In addition,
such shares of Equity Stock held in trust are purchasable by us until the trustee has sold the shares at a price equal to the lesser
of the price paid for the stock in the transaction that resulted in such transfer to the trust and the market price for the stock
on the date we determine to purchase the stock.</P>

requirements, our charter requires that each beneficial or constructive owner of Equity Stock and each person (including stockholders
of record) who holds stock for a beneficial or constructive owner, shall provide to us such information as we may request in order
to determine our status as a REIT and to ensure compliance with the Ownership Limits. Our charter also requires each owner of a
specified percentage of Equity Stock to provide, no later than January 30 of each year, written notice to us stating the name and
address of such owner, the number of shares of Equity Stock beneficially owned, and a description of how such shares are held.
In addition, each such stockholder must provide such additional information as we may request in order to determine the effect
of such stockholder&rsquo;s beneficial ownership of Equity Stock on our status as a REIT and to ensure compliance with the Ownership
Limits.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.25in">We have adopted a rights agreement, as amended,
under which each holder of our common stock receives one preferred share purchase right for each outstanding share of common stock.
Each right is attached to each share of common stock, is not currently exercisable and trades only with the shares of common stock.
Each right will separate from the share of common stock to which it is attached and will become exercisable 10 days after a public
announcement that a person or group has acquired common stock that would result in ownership of 15% or more of our shares of common
stock. Upon the occurrence of such an event, each right would entitle the holder to purchase for an exercise price of $70.00 one
one-hundredth of a share of new Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, which is designed to have economic and voting rights
generally equivalent to one share of common stock. If a person or group actually acquires 15% or more of our shares of common stock,
each right held by the acquiring person or group (or their transferees) will become void, and each right held by our other stockholders
will entitle those holders to purchase for the exercise price a number of shares of our common stock having a market value of twice
the exercise price. If we, at any time after a person or group has become a 15% beneficial owner and acquired control of our board
of directors, are involved in a merger or similar transaction with any person or group or sell assets to any person or group, each
outstanding right would then entitle its holder to purchase for the exercise price a number of shares of such other company having
a market value of twice the exercise price. In addition, if any person or group acquires 15% or more of our shares of common stock,
we may, at our option and to the fullest extent permitted by law, exchange one share of common stock for each outstanding right.
The rights are not exercisable until the above events occur and will expire on December 22, 2018, unless earlier exchanged or redeemed
by us. We may redeem the rights for $.001 per right under certain circumstances. The rights agreement may discourage, delay or
defer an acquisition or change of control of our Company that may otherwise be in the interest of our stockholders.&nbsp;</P>

classes of directors, serving staggered three year terms. At each annual meeting of stockholders, the class of directors to be

vote of the holders of 80% of our outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting
together as a single class. We believe that the classified board will help to assure the continuity and stability of our board
of directors and our business strategies and policies as determined by our board of directors. The use of a staggered board may

directors under specified circumstances, only a majority of the board of directors may increase or decrease the number of persons
serving on the board of directors. These provisions could temporarily prevent stockholders from enlarging the board of directors

as to ensure an orderly procedure for conducting meetings of stockholders. Although our charter and bylaws do not give the board
of directors power to block stockholder nominations for the election of directors or proposal for action, they may have the effect
of discouraging a stockholder from proposing nominees or business, precluding a contest for the election of directors or the consideration
of stockholder proposals if procedural requirements are not met and deterring third parties from soliciting proxies for a non-management
slate of directors or proposal, without regard to the merits of such slate or proposal.</P>

we have operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification as a REIT under the Code, and that our current and proposed
method of operation will enable us to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT. A copy of this
opinion is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. It must be emphasized that the
opinion of Honigman Miller Schwartz and Cohn LLP is based on various assumptions relating to our organization and operation, and
is conditioned upon representations and covenants made by our management regarding our assets and the past, present, and future
conduct of our business operations. While we intend to operate so that we will qualify as a REIT, given the highly complex nature
of the rules governing REITs, the ongoing importance of factual determinations, and the possibility of future changes in our circumstances,
no assurance can be given by Honigman Miller Schwartz and Cohn LLP or by us that we will so qualify for any particular year. The
opinion was expressed as of the date issued and will not cover subsequent periods. Honigman Miller Schwartz and Cohn LLP will have
no obligation to advise us or the holders of our securities of any subsequent change in the matters stated, represented or assumed,
or of any subsequent change in the applicable law. You should be aware that opinions of counsel are not binding on the IRS or any
court, and no assurance can be given that the IRS will not challenge, or a court will not rule contrary to, the conclusions set
forth in such opinions.</P>

the case of a REIT that is a partner in a partnership (treating, as a partner of a partnership for this purpose, a member of a
limited liability company that is classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes), Treasury Regulations provide that
the REIT will be deemed to own its proportionate share of the assets of the partnership, and the REIT will be deemed to be entitled
to the income of the partnership attributable to such share. The character of the assets and gross income of the partnership (determined
at the level of the partnership) are the same in the hands of the REIT for purposes of Section 856 of the Code, including satisfying
the gross income and asset tests described below. Accordingly, our proportionate share of the assets, liabilities, and items of
income of the Operating Partnership and our other subsidiary partnerships (provided that the subsidiary partnerships are not taxable
as corporations for federal income tax purposes) is treated as our assets, liabilities and items of income for purposes of applying
the requirements described in this summary (including the gross income and asset tests described below). One exception to the rule
described above is that, for purposes of the prohibition against holding securities having a value greater than 10% of the total
value of the outstanding securities of any one issuer discussed under &ldquo;&mdash; Asset Tests&rdquo; below, a REIT&rsquo;s proportionate
share of any securities held by a partnership is not based solely on its capital interest in the partnership but also includes
its interest (as a creditor) in certain debt securities of the partnership (excluding &ldquo;straight debt&rdquo; and certain other
securities described under &ldquo;&mdash; Asset Tests&rdquo; below). A summary of certain rules governing the federal income taxation
of partnerships and their partners is provided below in &ldquo;Tax Aspects of Investment in the Operating Partnership.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in"><I>Disregarded Subsidiaries.</I> If a REIT owns
a corporate subsidiary that is a &ldquo;qualified REIT subsidiary,&rdquo; that subsidiary is disregarded for federal income tax
purposes, and all assets, liabilities and items of income, deduction and credit of the subsidiary are treated as assets, liabilities
and items of income, deduction and credit of the REIT itself, including for purposes of applying the gross income and asset tests
applicable to REITs summarized below. A qualified REIT subsidiary is any corporation, other than a &ldquo;taxable REIT subsidiary&rdquo;
(described below), that is wholly-owned by a REIT, or by other disregarded subsidiaries, or by a combination of the two. Other
entities we wholly own, including single member limited liability companies, are also generally disregarded as separate entities
for federal income tax purposes, including for purposes of applying the REIT income and asset tests described below. Disregarded
subsidiaries, along with our subsidiary partnerships, are sometimes referred to as &ldquo;pass-through subsidiaries.&rdquo; In
the event that any of our disregarded subsidiaries ceases to be wholly-owned by us (for example, if any equity interest in the
subsidiary is acquired by a person other than us or one of our other disregarded subsidiaries), the subsidiary&rsquo;s separate
existence would no longer be disregarded for federal income tax purposes. Instead, it would have multiple owners and would be treated
as either a partnership or a taxable corporation. Such an event could, depending on the circumstances, adversely affect our ability
to satisfy the various asset and gross income requirements applicable to REITs, including the requirement that REITs generally
may not own, directly or indirectly, more than 10% (as measured by either voting power or value) of the securities of any one issuer.
See &ldquo;&mdash; Income Tests&rdquo; and &ldquo;&mdash; Asset Tests&rdquo; below.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in"><I>Taxable Subsidiaries.</I> A REIT may jointly
elect with a subsidiary corporation, whether or not wholly-owned, to treat the subsidiary corporation as a TRS of the REIT. In
addition, a corporation (other than a REIT or qualified REIT subsidiary) is treated as a TRS if a TRS of a REIT owns directly or
indirectly securities possessing more than 35% of the total voting power, or having more than 35% of the total value, of the outstanding
securities of the corporation. We have interests in several corporations treated as TRSs. The separate existence of a TRS or other
taxable corporation, unlike a disregarded subsidiary as discussed above, is not ignored for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly,
our TRSs are subject to corporate income tax on their earnings, and this may reduce the aggregate cash flow that we and our subsidiaries
generate and thus our ability to make distributions to our shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">A parent REIT is not treated as holding the
assets of a taxable subsidiary corporation or as receiving any undistributed income that the subsidiary earns. Rather, the stock
issued by the subsidiary is an asset in the hands of the parent REIT, and the REIT recognizes, as income, any dividends that it
receives from the subsidiary. This treatment can affect the income and asset test calculations that apply to the REIT. Because
a parent REIT does not include the assets and undistributed income of taxable subsidiary corporations in determining the parent&rsquo;s
compliance with the REIT requirements, these entities may be used by the parent REIT indirectly to undertake activities that the
applicable rules might otherwise preclude the parent REIT from doing directly or through pass-through subsidiaries (for example,
activities that give rise to certain categories of income, such as management fees, that do not qualify under the 75% and 95% gross
income tests described below).</P>

are intended to ensure that transactions between a parent REIT and its TRS occur at arm&rsquo;s length and on commercially reasonably
terms may prevent a TRS from deducting interest on debt funded directly or indirectly by its parent REIT if certain tests regarding
the TRS&rsquo;s debt to equity ratio and interest expense are not satisfied.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">In order to maintain qualification as a
REIT, we must annually satisfy two gross income requirements. First, at least 75% of our gross income for each taxable year,

(1) investments in real property or mortgages on real property, including &ldquo;rents from real property,&rdquo; dividends
received from other REITs, interest income derived from mortgage loans secured by real property (including certain types of
mortgage-backed securities), interest on mortgage loans secured by both real and personal property if the fair market value
of such personal property does not exceed 15% of the total fair market value of all property securing the loans (for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2015), and gains
from the sale of real estate assets, or (2) certain kinds of temporary investment of new capital. Second, at least 95% of our
gross income in each taxable year, excluding gross income from prohibited transactions, must derive from some combination of
such income from investments in real property and temporary investment of new capital (that is, income that qualifies
under the 75% income test described above), as well as other dividends, interest, and gain from the sale or disposition of
stock or securities, which need not have any relation to real property. Beginning after 2015, income from debt instruments
issued by publicly offered REITs is qualifying income for purposes of the 95% gross income test, but is not qualifying income
for purposes of the 75% gross income test unless such debt instruments would otherwise be treated as real estate assets.</P>

such as interest rate swaps, that hedge our risk with respect to one or more of our assets or liabilities. Any income we derive
from &ldquo;hedging transactions&rdquo; entered into prior to July 31, 2008, will be nonqualifying income for purposes of the 75%
gross income test. Income from &ldquo;hedging transactions&rdquo; that are clearly identified in the manner specified by the Code
will not constitute gross income, and will not be counted, for purposes of the 75% gross income test if entered into by us on or
after July 31, 2008, and will not constitute gross income, and will not be counted, for purposes of the 95% gross income test if
entered into by us on or after January 1, 2005. The term &ldquo;hedging transaction,&rdquo; as used above, generally means any

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">For purposes of satisfying the 75% and 95% gross
income tests, &ldquo;rents from real property&rdquo; generally include rents from interests in real property, charges for services
customarily furnished or rendered in connection with the rental of real property (whether or not such charges are separately stated),
and rent attributable to personal property which is leased under, or in connection with, a lease of real property. However, the
inclusion of these items as rents from real property is subject to the conditions described immediately below.</P>

with respect to any real or personal property cannot be based in whole or in part on the income or profits of any person from such
property. However, an amount received or accrued generally will not be excluded from rents from real property solely by reason
of being based on a fixed percentage or percentages of receipts or sales. In addition, amounts received or accrued based on income
or profits do not include amounts received from a tenant based on the tenant&rsquo;s income from the property if the tenant derives
substantially all of its income with respect to such property from leasing or subleasing substantially all of such property, provided
that the tenant receives from subtenants only amounts that would be treated as rents from real property if received directly by
the REIT.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0.5in">Amounts received from a tenant generally will not qualify
as rents from real property in satisfying the gross income tests if the REIT directly, indirectly, or constructively owns, (1)
in the case of a tenant which is a corporation, 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled
to vote or 10% or more of the total value of shares of all classes of stock of such tenant, or (2) in the case of a tenant which
is not a corporation, an interest of 10% or more in the assets or net profits of such tenant. (Such a tenant is referred to in
this section as a &ldquo;Related Party Tenant.&rdquo;) Rents that we receive from a Related Party Tenant that is also a TRS of
ours, however, will not be excluded from the definition of &ldquo;rents from real property&rdquo; if at least 90% of the space
at the property to which the rents relate is leased to third parties, and the rents paid by the TRS are substantially comparable
to rents paid by our other tenants for comparable space. Whether rents paid by our TRS are substantially comparable to rents paid
by our other tenants is determined at the time the lease with the TRS is entered into, extended, and modified, if such modification
increases the rents due under such lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if a lease with a &ldquo;controlled&rdquo; TRS
is modified and such modification results in an increase in the rents payable by such TRS, any such increase will not qualify as
rents from real property. For purposes of this rule, a &ldquo;controlled&rdquo; TRS is a TRS in which we own stock possessing more
than 50% of the voting power or more than 50% of the total value.</P>

with a lease of real property is greater than 15% of the total rent received under the lease, then the portion of rent attributable
to such personal property will not qualify as rents from real property. The determination of whether more than 15% of the rents
received by a REIT from a property is attributable to personal property is based upon a comparison of the fair market value of
the personal property leased by the tenant to the fair market value of all the property leased by the tenant.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 0 0.5in">Rents from real property do not include any amount received
or accrued directly or indirectly by a REIT for services furnished or rendered to tenants of a property or for managing or operating
a property, unless the services furnished or rendered, or management or operations provided, are of a type that a tax-exempt organization
can provide to its tenants without causing its rental income to be unrelated business taxable income under the Code (that is, unless
they are of a type &ldquo;usually or customarily rendered in connection with the rental of space for occupancy only&rdquo; or are
not considered &ldquo;primarily for the tenant&rsquo;s convenience&rdquo;). Services, management, or operations which, if provided
by a tax-exempt organization, would give rise to unrelated business taxable income (referred to in this section as &ldquo;Impermissible
Tenant Services&rdquo;) will not be treated as provided by the REIT if provided by either an &ldquo;independent contractor&rdquo;
(as defined in the Code) who is adequately compensated and from whom the REIT does not derive any income, or by a TRS. If an amount
received or accrued by a REIT for providing Impermissible Tenant Services to tenants of a property exceeds 1% of all amounts received
or accrued by the REIT with respect to such property in any year, none of such amounts will constitute rents from real property.
For purposes of this test, the income received from Impermissible Tenant Services is deemed to be at least 150% of the direct cost
of providing the services. If the 1% threshold is not exceeded, only the amounts received for providing Impermissible Tenant Services
will not constitute rents from real property.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Substantially all of our income derives from
the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership&rsquo;s income derives largely from rent attributable to our properties (which
properties are referred to in this section as the &ldquo;Properties&rdquo;). The Operating Partnership also derives income from
its TRSs insofar as they pay dividends on shares owned by the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership does not, and is
not expected to, charge rent that is based in whole or in part on the income or profits of any person (but does charge rent based
on a fixed percentage or percentages of receipts or sales). The Operating Partnership does not, and is not anticipated to, derive
rent attributable to personal property leased in connection with real property that exceeds 15% of the total rent for such property.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">In addition, we do not believe that we derive
(through the Operating Partnership) rent from a Related Party Tenant. However, the determination of whether we own 10% or more
(as measured by either voting power or value) of any tenant is made after the application of complex attribution rules under which
we will be treated as owning interests in tenants that are owned by our &ldquo;Ten Percent Shareholders.&rdquo; In identifying
our Ten Percent Shareholders, each individual or entity will be treated as owning shares held by related individuals and entities.
Accordingly, we cannot be absolutely certain whether all Related Party Tenants have been or will be identified. Although rent derived
from a Related Party Tenant will not qualify as rents from real property and, therefore, will not be qualifying income under the
75% or 95% gross income test, we believe that the aggregate amount of any such rental income (together with any other nonqualifying
income) in any taxable year will not cause us to exceed the limits on nonqualifying income under such gross income tests.</P>

with respect to the Properties (and expects to provide such services with respect to any newly acquired properties) through certain
TRSs. Because the services are provided through our TRSs, the provision of such services will not cause the amounts received by
us (through our ownership interest in the Operating Partnership) with respect to the Properties to fail to qualify as rents from
real property for purposes of the 75% and 95% gross income tests.</P>

indirectly receive distributions from TRSs or other corporations that are neither REITs nor qualified REIT subsidiaries. These
distributions will be classified as dividend income to the extent of the earnings and profits of the distributing corporation.
Such distributions will generally constitute qualifying income for purposes of the 95% gross income test, but not for purposes
of the 75% gross income test.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">In sum, our investment in real properties through
the Operating Partnership and the provision of services with respect to those properties through TRSs, gives and will give rise
mostly to rental income qualifying under the 75% and 95% gross income tests. Gains on sales of such properties, or of our interest
in such properties or in the Operating Partnership, will generally qualify under the 75% and 95% gross income tests. We anticipate
that income on our other investments will not result in our failing the 75% or 95% gross income test for any year.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">If we fail to satisfy one or both of the 75%
and 95% gross income tests for any taxable year, we may nevertheless qualify as a REIT for such year if we are entitled to relief
under certain provisions of the Code. We may avail ourselves of the relief provisions if: (1) following our identification of the
failure to meet the 75% or 95% gross income test for any taxable year, we file a schedule with the IRS setting forth each item
of our gross income for purposes of the 75% or 95% gross income test for such taxable year in accordance with Treasury Regulations
to be issued; and (2) our failure to meet the test was due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect. It is not possible,
however, to state whether in all circumstances we would be entitled to the benefit of these relief provisions. As discussed above
in &ldquo;&mdash; Taxation of REITs in General,&rdquo; even if these relief provisions apply, a tax would be imposed with respect
to the excess nonqualifying gross income.</P>

sufficient to permit us to meet this distribution requirement. It is possible that, from time to time, we may not have sufficient
cash or other liquid assets to meet the 90% distribution requirement, as a result of timing differences between the actual receipt

of such income and deduction of such expenses in computing our &ldquo;REIT taxable income&rdquo; on the other hand. To avoid any
failure to comply with the 90% distribution requirement, we will closely monitor the relationship between our &ldquo;REIT taxable

transaction&rdquo; is subject to a 100% excise tax. The term &ldquo;prohibited transaction&rdquo; includes a sale or other disposition
of property (other than foreclosure property) that is held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or

We and the Operating Partnership believe that this peripheral property is not held primarily for sale to customers and that the
sale of such peripheral property will not be in the ordinary course of the Operating Partnership&rsquo;s business. We intend to
conduct our operations so that no asset owned by us or our pass-through subsidiaries will be held primarily for sale to customers,

primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of our business depends, however, on the facts and circumstances as they
exist from time to time, including those relating to a particular property. As a result, no assurance can be given that the IRS
will not recharacterize property we own as property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of our business,
or that we can comply with certain safe-harbor provisions of the Code that would prevent such treatment. In the event we determine
that a property, the ultimate sale of which is expected to result in taxable gain, will be regarded as held primarily for sale
to customers in the ordinary course of trade or business, we intend to cause such property to be acquired by or transferred to

after there was a default (or default was imminent) on a lease of the property or on a mortgage loan held by the REIT and secured
by the property, (2) the loan or lease related to which was acquired by the REIT at a time when default was not imminent or anticipated,
and (3) that such REIT makes a proper election to treat as foreclosure property. REITs are subject to tax at the maximum corporate
rate (currently 35%) on any net income from foreclosure property, including any gain from the disposition of the foreclosure property,
other than income that would otherwise be qualifying income for purposes of the 75% gross income test. Any gain from the sale of
property for which a foreclosure property election has been made will not be subject to the 100% excise tax on gains from prohibited
transactions described above, even if the property would otherwise constitute dealer property (i.e., property held primarily for

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Our interests in the Partnerships involve special
tax considerations, including the possibility of a challenge by the IRS to the status of the Operating Partnership or any other
Partnership as a partnership (as opposed to an association taxable as a corporation) for federal income tax purposes. In general,
under certain Treasury Regulations which became effective January 1, 1997 (referred to in this section as the &ldquo;Check-the-Box
Regulations&rdquo;), an unincorporated entity with at least two members may elect to be classified either as a corporation or as
a partnership for federal income tax purposes. If such an entity does not make an election, it generally will be treated as a partnership
for federal income tax purposes. For such an entity that was in existence prior to January 1, 1997, such as the Operating Partnership
and some of the Partnerships, the entity will have the same classification (unless it elects otherwise) that it claimed under the
rules in effect prior to the Check-the-Box Regulations. In addition, the federal income tax classification of an entity that was
in existence prior to January 1, 1997 will be respected for all periods prior to January 1, 1997 if (1) the entity had a reasonable
basis for its claimed classification, (2) the entity and all members of the entity recognized the federal income tax consequences
of any changes in the entity&rsquo;s classification within the 60 months prior to January 1, 1997, and (3) neither the entity nor
any member of the entity was notified in writing by a taxing authority on or before May 8, 1996 that the classification of the
entity was under examination. We believe that the Operating Partnership and any other partnerships in which we previously directly
or indirectly held an interest that existed prior to January 1, 1997 reasonably claimed partnership classification under the Treasury
Regulations relating to entity classification in effect prior to January 1, 1997, and such classification should be respected for
federal income tax purposes. Each of them intends to continue to be classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes,
and none of them intends to elect to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation under the Check-the-Box Regulations.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">If the Operating Partnership or any of the other
Partnerships were to be treated as an association, it would be taxable as a corporation and therefore subject to an entity-level
tax on its income. In such a situation, the character of our assets and items of gross income would change, which would likely
preclude us from satisfying the asset tests and possibly the income tests (see &ldquo;Taxation of the Company &mdash; Income Tests&rdquo;
and &ldquo;Taxation of the Company &mdash; Asset Tests&rdquo; above), and in turn would prevent us from qualifying as a REIT, unless
we were eligible for relief under the relief provisions described above. See &ldquo;Taxation of the Company &mdash; Failure to
Qualify&rdquo; above for discussion of the effect of our failure to satisfy the REIT tests for a taxable year. In addition, any
change in the status of any of the Partnerships for federal income tax purposes might be treated as a taxable event, in which case
we could have taxable income that is subject to the REIT distribution requirement without receiving any cash.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code and applicable
Treasury Regulations, income, gain, loss, and deduction attributable to appreciated or depreciated property that is contributed
to a partnership in exchange for an interest in the partnership (such as the Properties contributed to the Operating Partnership
by the limited partners of the Operating Partnership) must be allocated in such a manner that the contributing partner is charged
with, or benefits from, the unrealized gain or unrealized loss, respectively, associated with the property at the time of the contribution.
The amount of such unrealized gain or unrealized loss is equal to the difference between the fair market value of the contributed
property at the time of contribution and the adjusted tax basis of such property at the time of contribution (referred to in this
section as the &ldquo;Book-Tax Difference&rdquo;). Such allocations are solely for federal income tax purposes and do not affect
the book capital accounts or other economic or legal arrangements among the partners. The Operating Partnership was formed with
contributions of appreciated property (including the Properties contributed by the limited partners of the Operating Partnership).
Consequently, the Operating Partnership&rsquo;s partnership agreement requires allocations to be made in a manner consistent with
Section 704(c) of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations. If a partner contributes cash to a partnership at a time when
the partnership holds appreciated (or depreciated) property, the applicable Treasury Regulations provide for a similar allocation
of these items to the other (that is, the pre-existing) partners. These rules may apply to any contribution by us to the Partnerships
of cash proceeds received from offerings of our securities, including any offering of common shares, preferred shares, or warrants
contemplated by this prospectus.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">In general, the partners that contributed appreciated
Properties to the Operating Partnership will be allocated less depreciation, and increased taxable gain on sale, of such Properties.
This will tend to eliminate the Book-Tax Difference. However, the special allocation rules of Section 704(c) and the applicable
Treasury Regulations do not always rectify the Book-Tax Difference on an annual basis or with respect to a specific taxable transaction
such as a sale. Under the applicable Treasury Regulations, special allocations of income and gain and depreciation deductions must
be made on a property-by-property basis. Depreciation deductions resulting from the carryover basis of a contributed property are
used to eliminate the Book-Tax Difference by allocating such deductions to the non-contributing partners (for example, to us) up
to the amount of their share of book depreciation. Any remaining tax depreciation for the contributed property would be allocated
to the partners who contributed the property. The Operating Partnership has generally elected the &ldquo;traditional method&rdquo;
of rectifying the Book-Tax Difference under the applicable Treasury Regulations, pursuant to which if depreciation deductions are
less than the non-contributing partners&rsquo; share of book depreciation, then the non-contributing partners lose the benefit
of the tax deductions to the extent of the difference. When the property is sold, the resulting tax gain is used to the extent
possible to eliminate any remaining Book-Tax Difference. Under the traditional method, it is possible that the carryover basis
of the contributed assets in the hands of a Partnership may cause us to be allocated less depreciation and other deductions than
would otherwise be allocated to us. This may cause us to recognize taxable income in excess of cash proceeds, which might adversely
affect our ability to comply with the REIT distribution requirement. See &ldquo;Taxation of the Company &mdash; Annual Distribution
Requirement&rdquo; above.</P>

contributed to) a Partnership, such property will initially have a tax basis equal to its fair market value, and Section 704(c)
of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations will not apply unless such property is subsequently revalued for capital accounting
purposes under applicable Treasury Regulations.</P>

other than the Operating Partnership. Based primarily on such investment objectives, we believe that the Properties should
not be considered dealer property (i.e., property held for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business). Whether
property is dealer property is a question of fact that depends on the particular facts and circumstances with respect to the
particular transaction. No assurance can be given that any property sold by us or any of our Partnerships will not be dealer

gain dividends will be taxed to shareholders as long-term capital gains, to the extent that they do not exceed our actual net capital
gain for the taxable year, without regard to the period for which the shareholder has held its shares. A similar treatment will
apply to long-term capital gains we retain, to the extent that we elect the application of provisions of the Code that treat shareholders
of a REIT as having received, for federal income tax purposes, undistributed capital gains of the REIT, while passing through to
shareholders a corresponding credit for taxes paid by the REIT on such retained capital gains.&nbsp;&nbsp;The aggregate amount
of dividends that we may designate as qualified dividend income or as capital gain dividends with respect to any taxable year beginning
after 2015 cannot exceed the dividends actually paid by us during such year. In addition, the Secretary of the Treasury is authorized
to prescribe regulations or other guidance requiring proportionality of the designation of particular types of dividends. Corporate
shareholders may be required to treat up to 20% of some capital gain dividends as ordinary income. Long-term capital gains are
generally taxable at maximum federal rates of 20% in the case of shareholders who are individuals, and 35% for corporations. Capital
gains attributable to the sale of depreciable real property held for more than 12 months are subject to a 25% maximum federal income
tax rate for taxpayers who are individuals, to the extent of previously claimed depreciation deductions. Pursuant to Treasury Regulations
to be promulgated by the U.S. Treasury Department, a portion of our distributions may be subject to the alternative minimum tax
to the extent of our items of tax preference, if any, allocated to the shareholders.</P>

common or preferred shares. To the extent that such distributions exceed the adjusted basis of a shareholder&rsquo;s shares, they
will be included in income as long-term capital gain, or short-term capital gain if the shares have been held for one year or less.
In addition, any dividend we declare in October, November or December of any year and payable to a shareholder of record on a specified
date in any such month will be treated both as paid by us and received by the shareholder on December 31 of such year, provided
that we actually pay the dividend before the end of January of the following calendar year.</P>

with respect to our shares constitutes a dividend for tax purposes, our earnings and profits will be allocated first to distributions
with respect to our preferred shares and then to our common shares. In addition, the IRS has taken the position in published guidance
that if a REIT has two classes of shares, the amount of any particular type of income (including net capital gain) allocated to
each class in any year cannot exceed such class&rsquo;s proportionate share of such income based on the total dividends paid to
each class for such year. Consequently, if both common shares and preferred shares are outstanding, particular types of income
will be allocated in accordance with the classes&rsquo; proportionate shares of such income. Thus, net capital gain will be allocated
between holders of common shares and holders of preferred shares, if any, in proportion to the total dividends paid to each class
during the taxable year, or otherwise as required by applicable law.</P>

Such losses, however, are not passed through to our shareholders and do not offset income of shareholders from other sources, nor
do they affect the character of any distributions that we actually make, which are generally taxable to our shareholders as dividends
to the extent that we have current or accumulated earnings and profits.</P>

at rates of up to 39.6% (applicable to short-term capital gains) if the shares are held for 12 months or less. Gains recognized
by shareholders that are corporations are subject to federal income tax at a maximum rate of 35%, whether or not classified as
long-term capital gains. Capital losses recognized by a shareholder upon the disposition of shares held for more than one year
at the time of disposition will be considered long-term capital losses, which are generally available first to offset long-term
capital gain (which is taxed at capital gain rates) and then short-term capital gain (which is taxed at ordinary income rates)

a loss upon a disposition of those shares in an amount that exceeds a prescribed threshold, it is possible that the provisions

the IRS concerning the loss-generating transaction. While these regulations are directed toward &ldquo;tax shelters,&rdquo; they
are quite broad, and apply to transactions that would not typically be considered tax shelters. The Code imposes significant penalties
for failure to comply with these requirements. Prospective shareholders should consult their tax advisors concerning any possible
disclosure obligation with respect to the receipt or disposition of common or preferred shares, or transactions that might be undertaken
directly or indirectly by us. Moreover, prospective shareholders should be aware that we and other participants in the transactions

under Section 302 of the Code as a dividend subject to tax as such (to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits),
unless the redemption satisfies certain tests set forth in Section 302(b) of the Code enabling the redemption to be treated as
a sale or exchange of the preferred shares. The redemption will satisfy such test if it (1) is &ldquo;substantially disproportionate&rdquo;
with respect to the holder (which will not be the case if only preferred shares are redeemed, since preferred shares generally
do not have voting rights), (2) results in a &ldquo;complete termination&rdquo; of the shareholder&rsquo;s stock interest in us,
or (3) is not &ldquo;essentially equivalent to a dividend&rdquo; with respect to the shareholder, all within the meaning of Section
302(b) of the Code. In determining whether any of these tests have been met, shares considered to be owned by the shareholder by
reason of certain constructive ownership rules set forth in the Code, as well as shares actually owned, must generally be taken
into account. Because the determination as to whether any of the alternative tests of Section 302(b) of the Code is satisfied with
respect to any particular holder of preferred shares will depend upon the facts and circumstances as of the time the determination
is made, prospective shareholders are advised to consult their own tax advisors to determine such tax treatment.</P>

paid in common or preferred shares that are intended to be treated as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If we are

common or preferred shares constitute a U.S. real property interest (referred to in this section as a &ldquo;USRPI&rdquo;), distributions
by us that are not dividends out of our earnings and profits will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax. If it cannot
be determined at the time at which a distribution is made whether or not the distribution will exceed current and accumulated earnings
and profits, the entire distribution will be subject to withholding at the rate applicable to dividends. However, the non-U.S.
shareholder may seek a refund from the IRS of any amounts withheld if it is subsequently determined that the distribution was,
in fact, in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits. If our common or preferred shares constitute a USRPI, as
discussed below under &ldquo;&mdash; Dispositions of Common or Preferred Shares,&rdquo; then distributions by us in excess of the
sum of our earnings and profits plus the shareholder&rsquo;s basis in its shares will be taxed under the Foreign Investment in
Real Property Tax Act of 1980 (which is referred to in this section as &ldquo;FIRPTA&rdquo;) at the rate of tax, including any
applicable capital gains rates, that would apply to a domestic shareholder of the same type (that is, an individual or a corporation,
as the case may be), and the collection of the tax will be enforced by a refundable withholding at a rate of 15% (increased from
10% effective February 17, 2016) of the amount by which the distribution exceeds the shareholder&rsquo;s share of our earnings
and profits. As discussed below under &ldquo;&mdash; FIRPTA Exception for Qualified Shareholders of REITs&rdquo; our shares will
not be treated as USRPIs when held directly or indirectly by a &ldquo;qualified shareholder.&rdquo; Additionally, as discussed
below under &ldquo;&mdash; FIRPTA Exception for Interests Held by Foreign Retirement or Pension Funds,&rdquo; &ldquo;qualified
foreign pension funds&rdquo; will not be subject to FIRPTA withholding.</P>

that are attributable to gains from dispositions of USRPIs held by us directly or through pass-through subsidiaries (referred to
in this section as &ldquo;USRPI capital gains&rdquo;) that are paid with respect to any class of shares which is regularly traded
on an established securities market located in the United States and that are made to a non-U.S. shareholder who does not own more
than 10% of the class of shares at any time during the one-year period ending on the date of distribution will be treated as a
regular distribution by us, and these distributions will be treated as ordinary dividend distributions. A distribution of USRPI
capital gains made by us to non-U.S. shareholders owning more than 10% of the class of shares in respect of which the distribution
is made will be considered effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business of the non-U.S. shareholder and will be subject
to U.S. income tax at the rates applicable to U.S. individuals or corporations, as the case may be (subject to alternative minimum
tax and a special alternative minimum tax in the case of nonresident alien individuals), without regard to whether the distribution
is designated as a capital gain dividend. In the case of such a greater than 10% non-U.S. shareholder, we will be required to withhold
tax equal to 35% of the amount of dividends to the extent the dividends constitute USRPI capital gains. Distributions subject to
FIRPTA may also be subject to a 30% branch profits tax (or lower tax treaty rate, if applicable) in the hands of a non-U.S. shareholder
that is a corporation.</P>

non-U.S. shareholder&rsquo;s U.S. trade or business, in which case the non-U.S. shareholder will be subject to the same treatment
as a U.S. shareholder with respect to such gain, except that a non-U.S. shareholder that is a foreign corporation may also be subject
to the 30% branch profits tax (or lower tax treaty rate, if applicable), or (2) the non-U.S. shareholder is a nonresident alien
individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year and certain other conditions are satisfied,

the law is not clear on the matter, it appears that amounts designated by us as retained capital gains in respect of our shares
held by non-U.S. shareholders generally should be treated in the same manner as our actual distributions of capital gain dividends.
Under this approach, a non-U.S. shareholder would be able to claim as a credit against its U.S. federal income tax liability, its
proportionate share of the tax paid by us on the retained capital gains, and to obtain from the IRS a refund to the extent its

of REIT stock held by the qualified shareholder indirectly owned through the qualified shareholder by the applicable investor will

is in a treaty jurisdiction and satisfies certain publicly traded requirements, is a &ldquo;qualified collective investment vehicle,&rdquo;

real property holding corporation if it were a United States corporation, or is designated as a qualified collective investment
vehicle by the Secretary of the Treasury and is either fiscally transparent within the meaning of the Code or required to include
dividends in its gross income but entitled to a deduction for distributions to its investors. Finally, capital gain dividends and
non-dividend redemption and liquidating distributions to a qualified shareholder that are not allocable to an applicable investor
will be treated as ordinary dividends. This provision applies to dispositions and distributions on or after December 18, 2015. The
rules applicable to qualified shareholders are complex and investors who believe that they may be qualified shareholders should
consult with their own tax advisor to find out if these rules are applicable to them.</P>

While many investments in real estate generate UBTI, the IRS has ruled that dividend distributions from a REIT to a tax-exempt
entity do not constitute UBTI. Based on that ruling, and provided that (1) a tax-exempt shareholder has not held its common or
preferred shares as &ldquo;debt financed property&rdquo; within the meaning of the Code (that is, property the acquisition of which
is financed through a borrowing by the tax-exempt shareholder), and (2) the shares are not otherwise used in an unrelated trade

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Several REIT rules were amended under the Protecting
Americans from Tax Hikes Act of 2015, which we refer to as the PATH Act, which was enacted on December 18, 2015. These rules were
enacted with varying effective dates, some of which are retroactive. Investors should consult with their tax advisors regarding
the effect of the PATH Act in their particular circumstances.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">The present U.S. federal income tax treatment
of REITs may be modified, possibly with retroactive effect, by legislative, judicial or administrative action at any time, which
could affect the federal income tax treatment of an investment in us. The REIT rules are constantly under review by persons involved
in the legislative process and by the IRS and the U.S. Treasury Department, which may result in statutory changes as well as revisions
to regulations and interpretations. Changes to the U.S. federal tax laws and interpretations thereof could adversely affect an
investment in our securities. According to publicly released statements, a top legislative priority of the new Congress and administration
may be to enact significant reform of the Code, including significant changes to taxation of business entities and the deductibility
of interest expense and capital investment. There is a substantial lack of clarity around the likelihood, timing and details of
any such tax reform and the impact of any potential tax reform on us or an investment in our securities.</P>

thereof, with or without retroactive application, could materially and adversely affect our securityholders or us. We cannot predict
how changes in the tax laws might affect our stockholders or us. New legislation, U.S. Treasury Regulations, administrative interpretations
or court decisions could significantly and negatively affect our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT, or the federal income
tax consequences to our securityholders and us of such qualification, or could have other adverse consequences, including with
respect to ownership of our securities. For example, lower revised tax rates for corporations, or for individuals, trusts and estates,
might cause current or potential securityholders to perceive investments in REITs to be relatively less attractive than is the
case under current law. Investors are urged to consult their tax advisors with respect to the status of legislative, regulatory,
or administrative developments and proposals and their potential effect on an investment in our securities.</P>
