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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">We are a natural resources development company committed to providing
sustainable water and agricultural opportunities in California.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">We own approximately 45,000 acres of land with high-quality, naturally
recharging groundwater resources in three areas of Southern California&rsquo;s Mojave Desert &ndash; the Cadiz Valley (35,000 acres),
Danby Dry Lake (2,000 acres), and the Piute Valley (9,000 acres) (&ldquo;Cadiz Property&rdquo;). Our properties represent a unique private
reserve of lands with vested water rights located in a remote area of eastern San Bernardino County that is at the crossroads of major
highway, rail, energy, and water infrastructure that supply and deliver necessary resources to communities in California and across Western
States. Our main objective is to realize the highest and best use of our land, water, and related infrastructure assets in an environmentally
responsible way. Our present activities are focused on developing our assets to meet growing long-term demand for access to sustainable
water supplies and agricultural products.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">California faces systemic water challenges and is not able to ensure
that all demands for water are safely and reliably met. We believe that the highest and best use of our assets will be realized by offering
a combination of water supply, water storage and agricultural projects at our properties in ways that are sustainable and responsive to
California&rsquo;s resource needs.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Water Project has completed extensive permitting and environmental
review in accordance with local, state and federal law and is approved to deliver a reliable supply of 50,000 acre-feet of water per year
for 50 years to communities off of the Cadiz Property. Prior to construction and implementation, the Water Project must complete contracts
with participating water agencies, conveyance arrangements to deliver water supplies to contracting water agencies, and arrange for facility
construction, improvements, and financing.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">We anticipate using two separate pipeline routes to convey water between
the Cadiz Property and the service areas of our participating agencies. The first route, or the Southern Pipeline, requires the construction
of a 43-mile, approximately 55-85&rdquo; steel water conveyance pipeline within a portion of the Arizona &amp; California Railroad Company&rsquo;s
railroad right-of-way that crosses the Cadiz Property and intersects with the Colorado River Aqueduct (&ldquo;CRA&rdquo;) in Rice, California.
The CRA is owned by the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (&ldquo;MWD&rdquo;) and serves water providers in six southern
California counties. The second route, or the Northern Pipeline, contemplates the use of an existing 220-mile, 30&rdquo; natural gas pipeline
that we optioned and acquired from El Paso Natural Gas (&ldquo;EPNG&rdquo;) as a potential facility to convey water to the Cadiz Property
for storage or from the Cadiz Property to parties along the route. The Northern Pipeline extends from the Cadiz Property north-west to
California&rsquo;s Central Valley, crossing the Mojave River Pipeline and the Los Angeles Aqueduct before terminating near the California
State Water Project in Wheeler Ridge.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In December 2020, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (&ldquo;BLM&rdquo;)
granted to our subsidiary Cadiz Real Estate LLC two right-of-way permits that grant us rights to operate the Northern Pipeline and transport
water consistently across the route over BLM-managed lands. The first right-of-way was issued pursuant to an assignment of a portion of
an existing right-of-way held by EPNG and granted by BLM under the Mineral Leasing Act that enables the continued transportation of natural
gas. The second right-of-way was issued under the Federal Land Policy and Management Act and authorizes the conveyance of water in the
pipeline over BLM-managed lands.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">With these BLM grants, conditions precedent in our Purchase &amp; Sale
Agreement with EPNG were principally satisfied allowing for completion of the Company&rsquo;s acquisition of the remaining 124-mile segment
of the Northern Pipeline upon final payment to EPNG of $19 million, which was made on June 28, 2021. We are presently engaged in discussions
with parties interested in using the Northern Pipeline for conveyance, storage and supply. Prior to conveyance of water through the Northern
Pipeline, we must secure permits required by any definitive agreement to use the facility. All conveyance of water via the Northern Pipeline
would be conducted in accordance with applicable local, state and federal laws.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">We also remain engaged with parties interested in taking deliveries
from the Water Project using the Southern Pipeline route and the CRA. Prior to construction of the Southern Pipeline, we must secure authorizations
required to convey water in the CRA, including an agreement with MWD and authorization from the California State Lands Commission under
Water Code Sections 1810 - 1815. We expect to pursue these approvals once definitive contracts with water providers are finalized.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Our agricultural operations provide the Company&rsquo;s principal source
of revenue, although our working capital needs are not fully supported by our agricultural lease and farming returns at this time. We
believe that the ultimate implementation of the Water Project will provide a significant source of future cash flow for the business and
our stockholders. We presently rely upon debt and equity financing to support our working capital needs and development of the Water Project.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Our current and future operations also include activities that further
our commitments to sustainable stewardship of our land and water resources, good governance and corporate social responsibility. We believe
these commitments are important investments that will assist in maintenance of sustained stockholder value.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">We and our wholly-owned subsidiary, Cadiz Real Estate LLC, have entered
into a new credit agreement with one or more affiliates of B. Riley Securities, Inc. (&ldquo;BRS&rdquo;) whereby the lenders under such
agreement will provide senior secured term loans to us in the aggregate original principal amount of $50.0 million. Prior to entering
into the Credit Agreement, an affiliate of BRS (&ldquo;Assignee&rdquo;) and Apollo Special Situations Fund, L.P. (&ldquo;Apollo&rdquo;)
entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, whereby Apollo assigned to the Assignee, and such Assignee assumed, all of Apollo&rsquo;s
rights, interests and obligations under the Credit Agreement, dated May 1, 2017 (the &ldquo;Senior Secured Credit Agreement&rdquo;) and
we agreed to offer to Apollo 363,566 shares of our common stock. Subject to payment by Assignee to Apollo of approximately $77.5 million
in cash upon the closing of the Depositary Shares Offering, which, together with the offering of shares of common stock in this offering
to Apollo, we have satisfied in full all our obligations to Apollo under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement. See the &ldquo;Term Loan

Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the &ldquo;Series A Preferred Stock&rdquo;). The net proceeds from the
sale of the Depositary Shares Offering, after deducting the underwriting discount, other fees and expenses of the Depositary Shares Offering,
were approximately $54,025,000. We used net proceeds from the Depositary Shares Offering together with the proceeds from the Credit Agreement
to (a) repay all our outstanding obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, in the amount of approximately $77.5 million,
(b) deposit approximately $10.2 million into a segregated account, representing an amount sufficient to pre-fund eight (8) quarterly dividend
payments on the Series A Preferred Stock underlying the depositary shares, (c) pay transaction related expenses and (d) use any remaining
proceeds for working capital needs and for general corporate purposes.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">We have entered into the Credit Agreement, pursuant to which the Lenders
will make Loans. The Credit Agreement matures on July 2, 2024, unless the maturity is accelerated subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement.
Interest will be paid quarterly beginning on September 30, 2021 at a rate of seven percent per annum.&nbsp; The obligations under the
Credit Agreement will be secured by substantially all of the Borrowers&rsquo; assets on a first-priority basis, except as otherwise provided
in the Credit Agreement, and by certain land owned by Octagon Partners, LLC, an affiliate of each of the Borrowers. In connection with
any repayment or prepayment of the Loans, the Borrowers will be required to pay a repayment fee equal to the principal amount being repaid
or prepaid, multiplied by (i) 0.0%, if made prior to the six-month anniversary of the closing of the Loans, (ii) 2.0%, if made on or after
the six-month anniversary of the closing of the Loans and prior to the eighteen-month anniversary of the closing of the Loans, (iii) 4.0%,
if made on or after the eighteen-month anniversary of the closing of the Loans and prior to the thirty-month anniversary of the closing
of the Loans, and (iii) 6.0%, if made at any time after the thirty-month anniversary of the closing of the Loans. At any time, the Borrowers
will be permitted to prepay the principal of the Loans, in whole or in part, which prepayment must be accompanied by any accrued interest
on such principal amount plus the applicable repayment fee described above.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In the event of certain asset sales or the incurrence of indebtedness,
under certain circumstances as described in the Credit Agreement, the Borrowers will be required to use a portion of the proceeds to prepay
amounts under the Loans. In the event of an issuance of depositary shares by Cadiz following the completion of the Depositary Shares Offering,
the Borrowers will be required to, within five business days after the receipt of the net cash proceeds, apply (i) 25%, in the case of
an issuance within six months of the closing of the Loans, (ii) 50%, in the case of any issuance immediately following the six months
anniversary of the closing of the Loans and up to and including the one year anniversary of the closing of the Loans and (iii) 75%, in
the case of any issuance anytime thereafter, of the net cash proceeds to prepay amounts due under the Loans (including the applicable
repayment fee described above).&nbsp;</P>

Our board of directors could do so for any reason. We may not have sufficient cash available each quarter to pay dividends. The amount

addition, the Series A Preferred Stock effectively ranks junior to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of (as well
as any preferred equity interests held by others in) of our existing subsidiaries and any future subsidiaries. Our existing subsidiaries
are and any future subsidiaries would be separate legal entities and have no legal obligation to pay any amounts to us in respect of dividends
due on the Series A Preferred Stock. If we are forced to liquidate our assets to pay our creditors, we may not have sufficient assets
to pay amounts due on any or all of the Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding. We and our subsidiaries have incurred and may in the
future incur substantial amounts of debt and other obligations that will rank senior to the Series A Preferred Stock. We may incur additional
indebtedness and become more highly leveraged in the future, which could harm our financial position and potentially limit our cash available

favorable than those of the Series A Preferred Stock and may result in dilution to holders of the depositary shares. We and, indirectly,
our stockholders, will bear the cost of issuing and servicing such securities. Because our decision to issue debt or equity securities
in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount,
timing or nature of our future offerings. Thus holders of the depositary shares will bear the risk of our future offerings reducing the

of Series A Preferred Stock, we will cause a corresponding number of additional depositary shares to be issued. Our certificate of incorporation
authorizes us to issue up to 100,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series on terms determined by our Board of Directors. Prior
to this offering, we had 6,281 outstanding shares of preferred stock. However, the use of depositary shares enables us to issue significant
amounts of depositary shares representing interests in our preferred stock, notwithstanding the number of shares of preferred stock authorized

experience in the future extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities
of many companies. These fluctuations often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. These
broad market and industry fluctuations, as well as general economic, political, and market conditions such as recessions, interest rate
changes, or international currency fluctuations may negatively impact the market price of the depositary shares. If the market price of
the depositary shares does not exceed the price at which the holders acquired their shares, such holders may not realize a full return
on their investment. In the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities
class-action litigation. We may in the future be the target of this type of litigation.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The following summary describes certain material U.S. federal income
tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of our depositary shares that may be acquired upon exchange of the Loans.
This discussion is not a complete analysis of all potential U.S. federal income tax consequences relating thereto, and does not address
foreign, state, and local consequences that may be relevant to stockholders in light of their particular circumstances, nor does it address
U.S. federal tax consequences (such as gift and estate taxes) other than income taxes. This discussion is limited to stockholders that
hold our depositary shares as a &ldquo;capital asset&rdquo; within the meaning of Section&nbsp;1221 of the Code (generally, property held
for investment). This discussion does not address all U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant to a stockholder&rsquo;s particular
circumstances, including the impact of the alternative minimum tax, the special tax accounting rules under Section&nbsp;451(b) of the
Code, and the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income. Special rules different from those described below may apply to certain
stockholders that are subject to special treatment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &ldquo;Code&rdquo;), such
as financial institutions, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, broker-dealers and traders in securities, persons owning or
considered as owning shares representing more than 5% of our Series A Preferred Stock, U.S. expatriates, &ldquo;controlled foreign corporations,&rdquo;
&ldquo;passive foreign investment companies,&rdquo; corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax, corporations
organized outside of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia that are nonetheless treated as U.S. taxpayers for
U.S. federal income tax purposes, persons that hold our depositary shares as part of a &ldquo;straddle,&rdquo; &ldquo;hedge,&rdquo; &ldquo;conversion
transaction,&rdquo; &ldquo;synthetic security&rdquo; or integrated investment or other risk reduction strategy, persons who acquire our
depositary shares through the exercise of an option or otherwise as compensation, &ldquo;qualified foreign pension funds&rdquo; as defined
in Section&nbsp;897(l)(2) of the Code and entities all of the interests of which are held by qualified foreign pension funds, partnerships
and other pass-through entities or arrangements, and investors in such pass-through entities or arrangements. Such stockholders are urged
to consult their own tax advisors to determine the U.S. federal, state, local, and other tax consequences that may be relevant to them.
Furthermore, the discussion below is based upon the provisions of the Code, and Treasury Regulations, rulings, and judicial decisions
thereunder as of the date hereof, and such authorities may be repealed, revoked, or modified, perhaps retroactively, so as to result in

A corporate U.S. Holder that has held our Series A Preferred Stock for two years or less before the dividend announcement date and that
receives an extraordinary dividend will generally be required to reduce its tax basis in the stock (but not below zero) with respect to
which such dividend was made by the &ldquo;nontaxed portion&rdquo; of such dividend, which equals (i)&nbsp;the amount of such dividend
over (ii)&nbsp;the portion of such dividend includible in gross income, reduced by any dividends-received deduction allowable with respect
to such dividend. If the amount of the reduction exceeds the U.S. Holder&rsquo;s tax basis in such stock, the excess is taxable as capital

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">A distribution by a corporation of its stock deemed made with respect
to its preferred stock is treated as a distribution of property to which Section&nbsp;301 of the Code applies. If a corporation issues
preferred stock that may be redeemed at a price higher than its issue price, the excess (a &ldquo;redemption premium&rdquo;) is treated
under certain circumstances as a constructive distribution (or series of constructive distributions) of additional preferred stock. The
constructive distribution of property equal to the redemption premium would accrue without regard to the holder&rsquo;s method of accounting
for U.S. federal income tax purposes at a constant yield determined under principles similar to the determination of original issue discount
(&ldquo;OID&rdquo;) pursuant to Treasury regulations under Sections&nbsp;1271 through 1275 of the Code (the &ldquo;OID Rules&rdquo;).
The constructive distributions of property would be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as actual distributions of the Series&nbsp;A
Preferred Stock that would constitute a dividend, return of capital or capital gain to the holder of the stock in the same manner as cash
distributions described in &ldquo;<I>Distributions</I>&rdquo; above. The application of principles similar to those applicable to debt
instruments with OID to a redemption premium for the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock is uncertain.</P>

on or after July 2, 2026 (the &ldquo;call option&rdquo;), and the right to call the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock for redemption upon
any Change of Control or Delisting Event (the &ldquo;contingent call option&rdquo;). The stated redemption price of the Series&nbsp;A
Preferred Stock upon any redemption pursuant to the call option or contingent call option is equal to the liquidation preference of the
Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock (i.e., $25.00, plus accrued and unpaid dividends) and is payable in cash.</P>

distributions to U.S. Holders of additional Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock. The redemption price for the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock
should be the liquidation preference of the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock. Assuming that the issue price of the Series&nbsp;A Preferred
Stock is determined under principles similar to the OID Rules, the issue price for the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock should be the initial
offering price at which a substantial amount of the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock is sold to the public (excluding any intervening sales
to bond houses and brokers).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">A redemption premium for the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock should not
result in constructive distributions to U.S. Holders of the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock if the redemption premium is less than a de-minimis
amount as determined under principles similar to the OID Rules. A redemption premium for the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock should be considered
de-minimis if such premium is less than 0.25% of the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock&rsquo;s liquidation value of $25.00 at maturity, multiplied
by the number of complete&nbsp;years to maturity. The determination under the OID Rules of a maturity date for preferred stock, such as
the Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock, is unclear. Accordingly, the remainder of this discussion assumes that the Series&nbsp;A Preferred
Stock is issued with a redemption premium greater than a de-minimis amount.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The call option should not require constructive distributions of redemption
premium if, based on all of the relevant facts and circumstances as of the issue date, a redemption pursuant to the call option is not
more likely than not to occur. The Treasury regulations provide that an issuer&rsquo;s right to redeem will not be treated as more likely
than not to occur if: (i)&nbsp;the issuer and the holder of the stock are not related within the meaning of Section&nbsp;267(b) or Section&nbsp;707(b)
of the Code (substituting &ldquo;20%&rdquo; for the phrase &ldquo;50%); (ii)&nbsp;there are no plans, arrangements, or agreements that
effectively require or are intended to compel the issuer to redeem the stock; and (iii)&nbsp;exercise of the right to redeem would not
reduce the yield on the stock determined using principles applicable to the determination of OID under the OID Rules. However, the fact
that a redemption right does not fall within the safe harbor described in the preceding sentence does not necessarily mean that an issuer&rsquo;s
right to redeem is more likely than not to occur for this purpose, and such right to redeem must still be tested under all of the relevant
facts and circumstances to determine if it is more likely than not to occur. We do not expect that a redemption pursuant to the call option
would be treated as more likely than not to occur under the foregoing test. Accordingly, no U.S. Holder of the Series&nbsp;A Preferred
Stock should be required to recognize constructive distributions of the redemption premium because of our call option. However, holders
should consult with their own tax advisors on the particular consequences to such holder of the call option under these rules.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In addition, the conversion price of our Series A Preferred Stock is
subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. In such circumstances, U.S. Holders of our Series A Preferred Stock may be deemed to
have received a distribution if the adjustment (or failure to make an adjustment) has the effect of increasing the proportionate interest
of the U.S. Holder in our assets or earnings and profits. If such adjustments are made, U.S. Holders will be deemed to have received constructive
distributions from us even though they may not receive any cash or property. The tax consequences of a receipt of a distribution are described
in &ldquo;<I>Distributions</I>&rdquo; above. Adjustments to the conversion price made pursuant to a bona fide reasonable adjustment formula
which has the effect of preventing dilution of the interest of the holders of shares of our Series A Preferred Stock generally will not
be considered to result in a constructive dividend distribution.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">To the extent there is a constructive distribution under the rules
above, under 2016 proposed regulations, (i) the amount of a constructive distribution is the excess of the fair market value of the right
to acquire common stock immediately after the conversion rate adjustment over the fair market value of the right to acquire common stock
(determined immediately after conversion rate adjustment) without the adjustment, and (ii) the constructive distribution occurs at the
earlier of the date the adjustment occurs under the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock and the date of the actual distribution of cash
or property that results in the constructive distribution. The final regulations will be effective for deemed distributions occurring
on or after the date of adoption, but holders of Series A Preferred Stock and withholding agents may rely on them prior to that date under
certain circumstances.&nbsp;</P>

plan, and occurs within the taxable year in which the plan was adopted or within the succeeding taxable year. For this purpose, a distribution
generally is not essentially equivalent to a dividend if the distribution results in a corporate contraction. The determination of what
constitutes a corporate contraction is factual in nature and has been interpreted under case law to include the termination of a business
or line of business.</P>

any common stock is in respect of accrued but unpaid dividends (generally taxable as described above under &ldquo;<I>Distributions</I>&rdquo;)
or cash received in lieu of a fractional share of common stock. Cash received in lieu of a fractional share of our common stock will generally
be treated as a payment in a taxable exchange for such fractional share, and gain or loss will be recognized in an amount equal to the
difference between the amount of cash received and the amount of adjusted tax basis allocable to the fractional share, as described below.
Any gain recognized on the conversion generally will be capital gain and will be long-term capital gain if, at the time of the conversion,
the U.S. Holder has held the Series A Preferred Stock that is converted for longer than one year.</P>

our common stock exchanged for cash, as described above), and the holding period of such common stock received on such a conversion will
generally include the period during which a U.S. Holder held our Series A Preferred Stock prior to conversion. A U.S. Holder&rsquo;s adjusted
tax basis in shares of our common stock attributable to accrued but unpaid dividends will equal the fair market value of such common stock
on the conversion date, and a U.S. Holder&rsquo;s holding period for such shares shall begin on the day after receipt thereof. A U.S.
Holder&rsquo;s tax basis in a fractional share will be determined by allocating such holder&rsquo;s tax basis in our Series A Preferred

of shares of our Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock, such U.S. Holder may receive cash, securities or other property or assets, or a combination
thereof. The term &ldquo;security&rdquo; is not defined in the Code or applicable Treasury Regulations. Judicial decisions have held that
the determination of whether a particular debt constitutes a &ldquo;security&rdquo; is based on an overall evaluation of the nature of
the debt. One of the most significant factors is the term of the debt. In general, debt obligations issued with a weighted average maturity
at issuance of five&nbsp;years or less do not constitute securities, whereas debt obligations with a weighted average maturity at issuance
of ten&nbsp;years or more do constitute securities. If the securities a U.S. Holder receives upon conversion of shares of our Series&nbsp;A
Preferred Stock are not &ldquo;securities&rdquo; for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then such securities will be treated as other property
or assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Other than with respect to such Alternative Form Consideration received on account of
accrued but unpaid dividends which generally will be taxable as described under &ldquo;<I>Distributions</I>&rdquo; above, if a U.S. Holder
receives the Alternative Form Consideration upon conversion of shares of our Series&nbsp;A Preferred Stock, the U.S. federal income tax
treatment of the conversion is uncertain. It is possible that the conversion could be treated as a single recapitalization, as a conversion
in part and a taxable redemption in part or entirely as a taxable transaction, as briefly discussed below. U.S. Holders are urged to consult
their tax advisors regarding the consequences of such a conversion based upon the facts at that time.&nbsp;</P>

the effect of the distribution of a dividend, then the gain recognized upon the exchange, as determined above, will be treated as a dividend
to the extent of the U.S. Holder&rsquo;s ratable share of our current and accumulated earnings and profits. The remainder of the gain
will be a capital gain and will be long-term if the U.S. Holder&rsquo;s holding period exceeds one year. For purposes of determining whether

period for the securities treated as &ldquo;securities&rdquo; for U.S. federal income tax purposes included in the Alternative Form Consideration
would include the period during which the U.S. Holder held shares of our Series A Preferred Stock. The tax basis of the other Alternative

In that event, the portion converted into securities treated as &ldquo;securities&rdquo; for U.S. federal income tax purposes could be

may also be subject to U.S. backup withholding. U.S. backup withholding generally will not apply to a Non-U.S. Holder who provides a properly
executed IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, or IRS Form W-ECI, or otherwise establishes an exemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
backup withholding may apply if the payor has actual knowledge, or reason to know, that the holder is a U.S. person who is not an exempt
recipient.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">U.S. information reporting and backup withholding requirements generally
will apply to the proceeds of a disposition of our Series A Preferred Stock effected by or through a U.S. office of any broker, U.S. or
foreign, except that information reporting and such requirements may be avoided if the holder provides a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN
or IRS Form W-8BEN-E or otherwise meets documentary evidence requirements for establishing non-U.S. person status or otherwise establishes
an exemption. Generally, U.S. information reporting and backup withholding requirements will not apply to a payment of disposition proceeds
to a Non-U.S. Holder where the transaction is effected outside the United States through a non-U.S. office of a non-U.S. broker. Information
reporting and backup withholding requirements may, however, apply to a payment of disposition proceeds if the broker has actual knowledge,
or reason to know, that the holder is, in fact, a U.S. person. For information reporting purposes, certain brokers with substantial U.S.
ownership or operations will generally be treated in a manner similar to U.S. brokers.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under
the backup withholding rules may be credited against the tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding, provided that the required
information is timely furnished to the IRS.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (commonly referred to as FATCA)
impose a U.S. federal withholding tax of 30% on certain payments to a foreign financial institution (as specifically defined by applicable
rules) unless such institution enters into an agreement with the U.S. government to withhold on certain payments and to collect and provide
to the U.S. tax authorities substantial information regarding U.S. account holders of such institution (which includes certain equity
holders of such institution, as well as certain account holders that are foreign entities with U.S. owners). FATCA also generally imposes
a federal withholding tax of 30% on certain payments to a non-financial foreign entity unless such entity provides the withholding agent
with either a certification that it does not have any substantial direct or indirect U.S. owners or provides information regarding substantial
direct and indirect U.S. owners of the entity. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country
may modify those requirements. The withholding tax described above will not apply if the foreign financial institution or non-financial
foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from the rules.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">FATCA withholding currently applies to payments of dividends, if any,
on our Series A Preferred Stock and, subject to the proposed Treasury Regulations described in this paragraph, generally also would apply
to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of our Series A Preferred Stock. The U.S. Treasury Department released
proposed regulations which, if finalized in their present form, would eliminate the federal withholding tax of 30% applicable to the gross
proceeds of a disposition of our Series A Preferred Stock. In its preamble to such proposed regulations, the U.S. Treasury Department
stated that taxpayers may generally rely on the proposed regulations until final regulations are issued. Holders are encouraged to consult
with their own tax advisors regarding the possible implications of FATCA on their investment in our Series A Preferred Stock.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">We are a natural resources development company committed to providing
sustainable water and agricultural opportunities in California.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">We own approximately 45,000 acres of land with high-quality, naturally
recharging groundwater resources in three areas of Southern California&rsquo;s Mojave Desert &ndash; the Cadiz Valley (35,000 acres),
Danby Dry Lake (2,000 acres), and the Piute Valley (9,000 acres) (&ldquo;Cadiz Property&rdquo;). Our properties represent a unique private
reserve of lands with vested water rights located in a remote area of eastern San Bernardino County that is at the crossroads of major
highway, rail, energy, and water infrastructure that supply and deliver necessary resources to communities in California and across Western
States. Our main objective is to realize the highest and best use of our land, water, and related infrastructure assets in an environmentally
responsible way. Our present activities are focused on developing our assets to meet growing long-term demand for access to sustainable
water supplies and agricultural products.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">California faces systemic water challenges and is not able to ensure
that all demands for water are safely and reliably met. We believe that the highest and best use of our assets will be realized by offering
a combination of water supply, water storage and agricultural projects at our properties in ways that are sustainable and responsive to
California&rsquo;s resource needs.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">The Water Project has completed extensive permitting and environmental
review in accordance with local, state and federal law and is approved to deliver a reliable supply of 50,000 acre-feet of water per year
for 50 years to communities off of the Cadiz Property. Prior to construction and implementation, the Water Project must complete contracts
with participating water agencies, conveyance arrangements to deliver water supplies to contracting water agencies, and arrange for facility
construction, improvements, and financing.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">We anticipate using two separate pipeline routes to convey water between
the Cadiz Property and the service areas of our participating agencies. The first route, or the Southern Pipeline, requires the construction
of a 43-mile, approximately 55-85&rdquo; steel water conveyance pipeline within a portion of the Arizona &amp; California Railroad Company&rsquo;s
railroad right-of-way that crosses the Cadiz Property and intersects with the Colorado River Aqueduct (&ldquo;CRA&rdquo;) in Rice, California.
The CRA is owned by the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (&ldquo;MWD&rdquo;) and serves water providers in six southern
California counties. The second route, or the Northern Pipeline, contemplates the use of an existing 220-mile, 30&rdquo; natural gas pipeline
that we optioned and acquired from El Paso Natural Gas (&ldquo;EPNG&rdquo;) as a potential facility to convey water to the Cadiz Property
for storage or from the Cadiz Property to parties along the route. The Northern Pipeline extends from the Cadiz Property north-west to
California&rsquo;s Central Valley, crossing the Mojave River Pipeline and the Los Angeles Aqueduct before terminating near the California
State Water Project in Wheeler Ridge.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">In December 2020, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (&ldquo;BLM&rdquo;)
granted to our subsidiary Cadiz Real Estate LLC two right-of-way permits that grant us rights to operate the Northern Pipeline and transport
water consistently across the route over BLM-managed lands. The first right-of-way was issued pursuant to an assignment of a portion of
an existing right-of-way held by EPNG and granted by BLM under the Mineral Leasing Act that enables the continued transportation of natural
gas. The second right-of-way was issued under the Federal Land Policy and Management Act and authorizes the conveyance of water in the
pipeline over BLM-managed lands.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">With these BLM grants, conditions precedent in our Purchase &amp; Sale
Agreement with EPNG were principally satisfied allowing for completion of the Company&rsquo;s acquisition of the remaining 124-mile segment
of the Northern Pipeline upon final payment to EPNG of $19 million, which is required to be made no later than June 30, 2021. We are presently
engaged in discussions with parties interested in using the Northern Pipeline for conveyance, storage and supply. Prior to conveyance
of water through the Northern Pipeline, we must secure permits required by any definitive agreement to use the facility. All conveyance
of water via the Northern Pipeline would be conducted in accordance with applicable local, state and federal laws.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">We also remain engaged with parties interested in taking deliveries
from the Water Project using the Southern Pipeline route and the CRA. Prior to construction of the Southern Pipeline, we must secure authorizations
required to convey water in the CRA, including an agreement with MWD and authorization from the California State Lands Commission under
Water Code Sections 1810 - 1815. We expect to pursue these approvals once definitive contracts with water providers are finalized.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Our agricultural operations provide the Company&rsquo;s principal source
of revenue, although our working capital needs are not fully supported by our agricultural lease and farming returns at this time. We
believe that the ultimate implementation of the Water Project will provide a significant source of future cash flow for the business and
our stockholders. We presently rely upon debt and equity financing to support our working capital needs and development of the Water Project.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Our current and future operations also include activities that further
our commitments to sustainable stewardship of our land and water resources, good governance and corporate social responsibility. We believe
these commitments are important investments that will assist in maintenance of sustained stockholder value.<B>&nbsp;</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in"><I>Ranking and Liquidation</I>. Prior to March
5, 2025, or the &ldquo;Mandatory Conversion Date&rdquo;, subject to applicable law and the rights of the holders of any other outstanding
series of our preferred stock, in the event of our voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, each share of Series
1 Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive an amount in cash equal to $2,734.09 per share (as may be adjusted for any dividends of
shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock, subdivision of the outstanding shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock or combination of the outstanding
shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock), before any payment may be made to holders of our common stock or any outstanding series of our preferred
stock junior in liquidation preference to the Series 1 Preferred Stock. In addition, prior to the Mandatory Conversion Date, subject to
applicable law and the rights of the holders of any other outstanding series of our preferred stock, holder of shares of Series 1 Preferred
Stock will be entitled to participate pro rata on an as-converted into common stock basis with all of our common stock in the distribution
of any remaining proceeds from the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up. After the Mandatory Conversion Date,
subject to applicable law and the rights of the holders of any outstanding series of our preferred stock, holders of shares of Series
1 Preferred Stock will not receive any preference and will only be entitled to participate pro rata on an as-converted into common stock
basis with all of our common stock in the distribution of any remaining proceeds from the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution
or winding up.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in"><I>Conversion</I>. Each share of Series 1 Preferred
Stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into 405.05 shares of our common stock (the &ldquo;Conversion Rate&rdquo;),
provided that the holder will be prohibited from converting shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock into shares of our common stock if, as
a result of such conversion, the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.9% of the total number of shares
of our common stock then issued and outstanding after giving effect to such conversion. On the Mandatory Conversion Date, each share of
Series 1 Preferred Stock will automatically convert into shares of our common stock at the Conversion Rate then in effect; provided, that
the shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock will not automatically convert shares of our common stock to the extent that, as a result of such
conversion, the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.9% of the total number of shares of our common
stock then issued and outstanding after giving effect to such conversion. Any shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock that remain outstanding
after the Mandatory Conversion Date as a result of such limitations will be convertible at any time thereafter, at the option of the holder,
subject to the beneficial ownership limitations in the Certificate of Designation of Series 1 Preferred Stock.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in"><I>Voting Rights</I>. Prior to the Mandatory Conversion
Date, except as provided by applicable law, each share of Series 1 Preferred Stock will be entitled to 301.98 votes (the &ldquo;Voting
Rate&rdquo;) on all matters on which stockholders are generally entitled to vote (provided that no holder of shares of Series 1 Preferred
Stock will be entitled to such number of votes in excess of such holder&rsquo;s beneficial ownership limitation). Additionally, prior
to the Mandatory Conversion Date, the vote or written consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series 1 Preferred
Stock, voting separately as a single class, will be required for certain amendments to our Certificate, to liquidate us, to incur certain
indebtedness other than permitted indebtedness, to enter into certain affiliate transactions, to issue additional shares of Series 1 Preferred
Stock and to issue any capital stock senior or having parity in preference to the Series 1 Preferred Stock, other than preferred shares
that may be issued in one or more financing transactions as an alternative to our incurring, and which the gross proceeds of shall be
offset against, permitted indebtedness. Permitted indebtedness over which the holders of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock will have
no voting rights consists of (i) our existing debt as of March 5, 2020 and the refinancing of such debt, (ii) up to $600 million of debt
that we may incur related to our southern pipeline project or our northern pipeline project (collectively, the &ldquo;Pipeline Water Projects&rdquo;),
(iii) <FONT STYLE="background-color: white">the establishment of related infrastructure and farming costs for developing agriculture on
land owned by us and our subsidiaries (the &ldquo;Farming Project&rdquo;), (iv) working capital for the Pipeline Water Projects, the Farming
Project or general corporate purposes, and (v) a refinancing of any of the debt described in this sentence </FONT>related to the Pipeline
Water Projects. After the Mandatory Conversion Date, the shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock will have no voting rights, except as required
by applicable law.</P>

Date, the holders of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock will not be entitled to participate in any dividends or distributions. After the
Mandatory Conversion Date, subject to the applicable law and the rights of the holders of any outstanding series of our preferred stock,
shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock will rank pari passu on an as-converted to common stock basis with all of our common stock as to dividends
and distributions. However, holders of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock will not be entitled to participate in dividends consisting
of shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of our common stock to the extent that, as
a result of such dividend, the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 9.9% of the total number of shares
of our common stock then issued and outstanding after giving effect to such dividend.</P>

to the corporation or to any of its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except (i) for breach
of the director&rsquo;s duty of loyalty, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law, (iii) for certain unlawful dividends and stock repurchases or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived
an improper personal benefit.&nbsp; Our Certificate contains such a provision.</P>

prohibits stockholder action by written consent in lieu of a meeting of stockholders. Further, special meetings of stockholders may be
called only by our Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer or President. In addition, our Bylaws contain advance notice procedures
for stockholders seeking to bring business before the annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate candidates for election as directors
at the annual meeting of stockholders, and specify certain requirements regarding the form and content of a stockholder&rsquo;s notice.
The foregoing could have the effect of delaying or preventing unsolicited takeovers and changes in control or changes in our Board of
Directors.</P>

Board of Directors to make more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company by means of a merger, tender offer,
proxy contest or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of our Board of Directors. If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary
obligations, our Board of Directors were to determine that a takeover proposal was not in our best interest, authorized but unissued shares
of common stock could be issued by our Board of Directors without stockholder approval in one or more transactions that might prevent
or render more difficult or costly the completion of the takeover transaction by diluting the voting or other rights of the proposed acquirer
or insurgent stockholder group, by putting a substantial voting block in institutional or other hands that might undertake to support
the position of the incumbent Board of Directors, by effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover, or otherwise.</P>

series of preferred stock out of our authorized and unissued shares of preferred stock. One of the effects of the &ldquo;blank check&rdquo;
power may be to enable our Board of Directors to make more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company as described
above. If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, our Board of Directors were to determine that a takeover proposal was not
in our best interests, one or more series of preferred stock could be created and shares thereof issued, without stockholder approval,
which action may prevent or render more difficult or costly the completion of the takeover transaction as described above. The creation
of one or more series of preferred stock and the issuance of shares of such preferred stock could also decrease the amount of earnings
and assets available for distribution to holders of shares of common stock. The issuance also may adversely affect the rights and powers,
including voting rights, of those holders.</P>
