<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">On April 6, 2022, the
board of directors (the &#8220;Board&#8221;) of the Company reapproved a stock repurchase program (the &#8220;Repurchase Program&#8221;)
pursuant to which the Board granted a repurchase authorization to acquire shares of the Company&#8217;s Common Stock and Preferred Stock
having an aggregate value of up to $200 million. The Board&#8217;s authorization replaced any previous repurchase authorizations. In
addition, on April 11, 2022, the Company re-established an &#8220;at-the-market&#8221; equity distribution program (the &#8220;At-The-Market
Program&#8221;) pursuant to which it may, from time to time, sell shares of its Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up
to $100 million. The Company believes that it is prudent capital management to have the flexibility to use either of the Repurchase Program
or the At-The-Market Program, in each case subject to market conditions. As of the date hereof, the Company has no current intention
to repurchase Common Stock or Preferred Stock pursuant to the Repurchase Program or sell Common Stock pursuant to the At-The-Market Program.
The Company disclaims any duty to update this disclosure, unless required by applicable law.</p>

to the Company&#8217;s Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer by others within those entities, and such disclosure
controls and procedures are effective to perform the functions for which they were established. The Company, the Operating
Partnership and the Subsidiaries have established and maintain internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in
Rule&nbsp;13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act). Such internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide
reasonable assurance that (A)&nbsp;transactions are executed in accordance with management&#8217;s general or specific
authorization; (B)&nbsp;transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP
and to maintain accountability for assets; (C)&nbsp;access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management&#8217;s general
or specific authorization; (D)&nbsp;the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable
intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences; and (E)&nbsp;the interactive data in eXtensible Business
Reporting Language incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus fairly presents the information called
for in all material respects and are prepared in accordance with the Commission&#8217;s rules&nbsp;and guidelines applicable

(i)&nbsp;any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls which could adversely
affect the Company&#8217;s ability to record, process, summarize, and report financial data; and (ii)&nbsp;any fraud, whether or not
material, that involves management or other employees who have a role in the Company&#8217;s internal controls. Since the date of
the most recent evaluation of such disclosure controls and procedures, there have been (A)&nbsp;no material weakness in the
Company&#8217;s internal control over financial reporting (whether or not remediated) and (B)&nbsp;no significant changes in
internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls, including any corrective actions with
regard to significant deficiencies.</FONT></P>

regulations and deed restrictions or other covenants in all material respects and, if and to the extent there is a failure to
comply, such failure does not materially impair the value of any of the Real Property and will not result in a forfeiture or
reversion of title. None of the Operating Partnership, the Company nor any Subsidiary has received from any governmental authority
any written notice of any condemnation of or zoning change affecting the Real Property or any part thereof, and none of the

that individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No tenant under any lease
pursuant to which the Operating Partnership or any of the Subsidiaries leases any Real Property has an option or right of first
refusal to purchase the premises leased thereunder or the building of which such premises are a part, except as such options or
rights of first refusal that, individually or in the aggregate, if exercised, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
