<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This statement is being filed in connection with the Voting Agreements among IRT and the Stockholders. On May&nbsp;11, 2015, IRT, Independence
Realty Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and a subsidiary of IRT (&#147;<U>IRT OP</U>&#148;), IRT Limited Partner, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of IRT (&#147;<U>IRT LP
LLC</U>&#148;), and Adventure Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of IRT OP (&#147;<U>OP Merger Sub</U>&#148; and, collectively with IRT, IRT OP and IRT LP LLC, the &#147;<U>IRT Buyer Parties</U>&#148;),
entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the &#147;<U>Merger Agreement</U>&#148;) with Issuer and Trade Street Operating Partnership, L.P. (the &#147;<U>Operating Partnership</U>&#148;). On September&nbsp;11, 2015, as previously disclosed, the
IRT Buyer Parties, the Issuer and the Operating Partnership entered into Amendment No.&nbsp;1 to the Merger Agreement (the &#147;<U>Amendment</U>&#148;). The Amendment provides for certain adjustments to the Merger Agreement resulting from
IRT&#146;s entry into a Contribution and Exchange Agreement on September&nbsp;11, 2015 with Michael D. Baumann and Heidi Baumann, the sole third party holder of units of limited partnership interest of the Operating Partnership, as previously
disclosed. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On September&nbsp;17, 2015, the Issuer completed the previously announced Merger. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger
Agreement, (i)&nbsp;OP Merger Sub was merged with and into the Operating Partnership (the &#147;<U>Partnership Merger</U>&#148;) at the effective time of the Partnership Merger, whereupon the separate existence of the OP Merger Sub ceased and the
Operating Partnership became the surviving entity and wholly-owned subsidiary of IRT OP and (ii)&nbsp;Issuer was merged with and into IRT LP LLC (the &#147;<U>Company Merger</U>&#148; and, collectively with the Partnership Merger, the
&#147;<U>Merger</U>&#148;) at the effective time of the Company Merger (the &#147;<U>Company Merger Effective Time</U>&#148;), whereupon the separate existence of Issuer ceased and IRT LP LLC became the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary
of IRT. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">At the Company Merger Effective Time, each share of common stock of Issuer, par value $0.01 per share (the &#147;<U>Issuer Common
Stock</U>&#148;), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time was converted automatically into the right to receive (a)&nbsp;$3.80 in cash and (b)&nbsp;0.4108 shares of common stock of IRT, par value $0.01 per

proxy), (i)&nbsp;appear at such stockholders&#146; meeting or otherwise cause the Subject Shares to be counted as present thereat for purposes of calculating a quorum and (ii)&nbsp;vote, or cause to be voted, the Subject Shares: (a)&nbsp;in favor of

delay, postpone, discourage or adversely affect consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, in each case to the extent that the stockholders of the Issuer are entitled to consider and vote on such matters(s) at a
stockholders&#146; meeting. Each Stockholder was not required to vote its Subject Shares as described above if (i)&nbsp;the board of directors of the Issuer changed its recommendation to its stockholders to approve the Merger Agreement or
recommended that its stockholder enter into a transaction with another party or (ii)&nbsp;the Merger Agreement was amended or proposed to be amended in any manner that is materially adverse to the Stockholder (an &#147;<U>Adverse
Amendment</U>&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, the Stockholders agreed, subject to certain exceptions, to refrain from (i)&nbsp;transferring or

Voting Agreements) or powers of attorney with respect thereto or (iii)&nbsp;committing or agreeing to take any of the foregoing actions. IRT, and such designees as it may name, was appointed as each Stockholder&#146;s true and lawful
