amendment thereto has been issued under the 1933 Act, no notice of objection of the Commission to the use of an automatic registration
statement has been received by the Company, no order preventing, suspending or objecting to the use of the Prospectus or any Issuer
Free Writing Prospectus has been issued and no proceeding for any of those purposes has been instituted or, to the Company’s
knowledge, threatened by the Commission. The Company has complied with each request (if any) from the Commission for additional
information and there are no outstanding or unresolved comments from the Commission or its staff.

with the Commission and at each Settlement Date, complied, complies and will comply in all material respects with the requirements
of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations.


Neither the Registration Statement nor any amendment thereto,
at the time of its effectiveness, at any deemed effective date with respect to the Agent and the Shares pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2)
of the 1933 Act Regulations or at any Settlement Date contained, contains or will contain an untrue statement of a material fact
or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading. Neither the Prospectus nor any amendment or supplement thereto, as of its issue date, at the time of any filing
with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) or at any Settlement Date, included, includes or will include an untrue statement
of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein,
in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

and, with respect to any Shares, together with the public offering price of such Shares, the “General Disclosure Package”)
as of each Applicable Time and each Settlement Date, will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made,

Statement, the Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus and each such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, as supplemented by and taken
together with the General Disclosure Package as of such Applicable Time, will not include any untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading.


Neither the Company nor the Operating Partnership makes any representations
or warranties as to the information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus
Supplement, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished to the Company or the Operating Partnership by or on behalf of the Agent or any Alternative

to conduct their respective businesses as now conducted and at a cost that would not result in a Material Adverse Effect. None

Section 2.                
Sale and Delivery of Shares.


(a)               
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company agrees to issue and sell through the Agent acting
as sales agent or directly to the Agent acting as principal from time to time, and the Agent agrees to use its commercially reasonable
efforts to sell as sales agent for the Company, the Shares. Sales of the Shares, if any, through the Agent acting as sales agent
or directly to the Agent acting as principal will be made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the Principal Market
or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices.


(b)              
The Shares are to be sold on a daily basis or otherwise as shall be agreed to by the Company and the Agent on any
trading day (other than a day on which the Principal Market is scheduled to close prior to its regular weekday closing time, each,
a “Trading Day”) that the Company has satisfied its obligations under Section 6 of this Agreement and
that the Company has instructed the Agent to make such sales. On any Trading Day, the Company may instruct the Agent by telephone
(confirmed promptly by email, which confirmation will be promptly acknowledged by the Agent) as to the maximum number of Shares
to be sold by the Agent on such day and the minimum price per Share at which such Shares may be sold (subject, in each case, to
the limitations specified in Sections 2(c) and (f)). Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Agent shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to sell as sales agent all of the Shares so designated by the Company. The Company and the Agent
each acknowledge and agree that (A) there can be no assurance that the Agent will be successful in selling the Shares, (B) the
Agent will incur no liability or obligation to the Company or any other person or entity if it does not sell Shares for any reason
other than a failure by the Agent to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices
and applicable law and regulations to sell such Shares as required by this Agreement, and (C) the Agent shall be under no
obligation to purchase Shares on a principal basis except as otherwise specifically agreed by the Agent and the Company pursuant
to a Terms Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of a Terms Agreement, the terms
of such Terms Agreement will control.



    	 	12	 



     

    

(c)               
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not authorize the issuance and sale of, and the Agent as sales agent
shall not be obligated to use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell, any Shares (i) at a price lower than the minimum
price therefor authorized from time to time or (ii) in a number or with an aggregate gross sales price, together with all
sales of Shares under this Agreement and the Alternative Sales Agreements, in excess of the Maximum Amount or the number or gross
sales price, as the case may be, of Shares authorized from time to time to be issued and sold under this Agreement, any Terms Agreement
and any Alternative Sales Agreements, in each case, by the Company’s board of directors, or a duly authorized committee thereof,
or in a number in excess of the number of Shares approved for listing on the Principal Market, and in each case notified to the
Agent in writing. In addition, the Company or the Agent may, upon notice to the other party hereto by telephone (confirmed promptly
by email, which confirmation will be promptly acknowledged), suspend the offering of the Shares with respect to which the Agent
is acting as sales agent for any reason and at any time; provided, however, that such suspension or termination shall
not affect or impair the parties’ respective obligations with respect to the Shares sold hereunder prior to the giving of
such notice. Further, on any Trading Day, the Company shall sell Shares through only one of the Agent or an Alternative Agent.
The requirement that the Company sell Shares through only one of the Agent or an Alternative Agent on any Trading Day shall not
apply to sales solely to employees or security holders of the Company or its subsidiaries, or to a trustee or other person acquiring
such securities for the accounts of such persons.


(d)              
The gross sales price of any Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement by the Agent acting as sales agent of the Company
shall be the market price prevailing at the time of sale for shares of the Common Stock sold by the Agent on the Principal Market
or otherwise, at prices relating to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The compensation payable to the Agent for
sales of Shares with respect to which the Agent acts as sales agent shall be up to 2.0% of the gross sales price of the Shares
sold pursuant to this Agreement. The Company may sell Shares to the Agent as principal at a price agreed upon at the relevant Applicable
Time and pursuant to a separate Terms Agreement. The remaining proceeds, after further deduction for any transaction fees, transfer
taxes or similar taxes or fees imposed by any Governmental Entity in respect of such sales, shall constitute the net proceeds to
the Company for such Shares (the “Net Proceeds”). The Agent shall notify the Company as promptly as practicable
if any deduction referenced in the preceding sentence will be required with an itemization of such deductions. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event the Company engages the Agent for a sale of Shares that would constitute a “distribution”,
within the meaning of Rule 100 of Regulation M under the 1934 Act, the Company and the Agent will agree to compensation that
is customary for the Agent with respect to such transactions.


(e)               
If acting as sales agent hereunder, the Agent shall provide written confirmation to the Company following the close
of trading on the Principal Market each day in which Shares are sold under this Agreement setting forth the number of Shares sold
on such day, the aggregate gross sales proceeds of the Shares, the aggregate Net Proceeds to the Company and the aggregate compensation
payable by the Company to the Agent with respect to such sales.


(f)               
Under no circumstances shall the number or aggregate gross sales price, as the case may be, of Shares sold pursuant
to this Agreement, any Terms Agreement and any Alternative Sales Agreement exceed the Maximum Amount or the number or aggregate
gross sales price, as the case may be, of Shares of Common Stock (i) available for issuance under the Prospectus and the
then currently effective Registration Statement or (ii) authorized from time to time to be issued and sold under this Agreement,
any Terms Agreement or any Alternative Sales Agreement by the Company’s board of directors, or a duly authorized committee
thereof or approved for listing on the Principal Market, and in each case referred to in this clause (ii), and notified to
the Agent in writing. In addition, under no circumstances shall any Shares with respect to which the Agent acts as sales agent
be sold at a price lower than the minimum price therefor authorized from time to time by the Company’s board of directors,
or a duly authorized committee thereof, and notified to the Agent in writing.



    	 	13	 



     

    

(g)               
If either party believes that the exemptive provisions set forth in Rule 101(c)(1) of Regulation M under the
1934 Act (applicable to securities with an average daily trading volume of $1,000,000 that are issued by an issuer whose common
equity securities have a public float value of at least $150,000,000) are not satisfied with respect to the Company or the Shares,
it shall promptly notify the other party and sales of Shares under this Agreement and any Terms Agreement shall be suspended until
that or other exemptive provisions have been satisfied in the judgment of each party.


(h)              
Settlement for sales of Shares pursuant to this Section 2 will occur on the third business day that is also
a Trading Day following the trade date on which such sales are made, unless another date shall be agreed to by the Company and
the Agent (each such day, a “Settlement Date”). On each Settlement Date, the Shares sold through the Agent for
settlement on such date shall be delivered by the Company to the Agent against payment of the Net Proceeds from the sale of such
Shares. Settlement for all Shares shall be effected by book-entry delivery of Shares to the Agent’s account at The Depository
Trust Company against payments by the Agent of the Net Proceeds from the sale of such Shares in same day funds delivered to an
account designated by the Company. If the Company shall default on its obligation to deliver Shares on any Settlement Date, the
Company shall (i) indemnify and hold the Agent harmless against any loss, claim or damage arising from or as a result of such
default by the Company and (ii) pay the Agent any commission to which it would otherwise be entitled absent such default.
If the Agent breaches this Agreement by failing to deliver the applicable Net Proceeds on any Settlement Date for Shares delivered
by the Company, the Agent will pay the Company interest based on the effective overnight federal funds rate until such proceeds,
together with such interest, have been fully paid.


(i)                
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not offer, sell or deliver, or request the
offer or sale of any Shares and, by notice to the Agent given by telephone (confirmed by email), shall cancel any instructions
for the offer or sale of any Shares, and the Agent shall not be obligated to offer or sell any Shares, (i) during any period
in which the Agent believes that the Company is, or could be deemed to be, in possession of material non-public information or
(ii) except as provided in Section 2(j) below, at any time from and including the date (each, an “Announcement
Date”) on which the Company shall issue a press release containing, or shall otherwise publicly announce, its
earnings, revenues or other results of operations (each, an “Earnings Announcement”) through and including the
time that is 24 hours after the time that the Company files (a “Filing Time”) a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
or an Annual Report on Form 10-K that includes consolidated financial statements as of and for the same period or periods,
as the case may be, covered by such Earnings Announcement.


(j)                
If the Company wishes to offer, sell or deliver Shares at any time during the period from and including an Announcement
Date through and including the time that is 24 hours after the corresponding Filing Time, the Company shall (i) prepare and
deliver to the Agent (with a copy to counsel to the Agent) a Current Report on Form 8-K which shall include substantially
the same financial and related information as was set forth in the relevant Earnings Announcement (other than any earnings projections,
similar forward-looking data and officers’ quotations) (each, an “Earnings 8-K”), in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, (ii) provide the Agent with the officers’ certificate, accountants’ letters
and opinions and letters of counsel called for by Sections 3(i), (j) and (k) hereof, respectively, (iii) afford
the Agent the opportunity to conduct a due diligence review in accordance with Section 3(n) hereof and (iv) file such
Earnings 8-K with the Commission, then the provisions of clause (ii) of Section 2(i) shall not be applicable for the
period from and after the time at which the foregoing conditions shall have been satisfied (or, if later, the time that is 24
hours after the time that the relevant Earnings Announcement was first publicly released) through and including the time that
is 24 hours after the Filing Time of the relevant Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or Annual Report on Form 10-K, as the
case may be. For purposes of clarity, the parties hereto agree that (A) the delivery of any officers’ certificate,
accountants’ letters and opinions and letters of counsel pursuant to this Section 2(j) shall not relieve the Company
from any of its obligations under this Agreement with respect to any Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or Annual Report on Form 10-K,
as the case may be, including, without limitation, the obligation to deliver officers’ certificates, accountants’
letters and legal opinions and letters as provided in Section 3 hereof and (B) this Section 2(j) shall in no way
affect or limit the operation of the provisions of clause (i) of Section 2(i), which shall have independent application.



    	 	14	 



     

    

(k)              
At each Applicable Time, Settlement Date, Registration Statement Amendment Date, Company Periodic Report Date, Company
Earnings Report Date and Request Date, each of the Company and the Operating Partnership shall be deemed to have affirmed each
representation and warranty contained in this Agreement; provided, that if such date occurs during a Suspension Period,
the Company and the Operating Partnership shall not be deemed to have affirmed such representations and warranties until the next
of such dates after the end of the Suspension Period. Any obligation of the Agent to use its commercially reasonable efforts to
sell the Shares on behalf of the Company as sales agent shall be subject to the continuing accuracy of the representations and
warranties of the Company and the Operating Partnership herein, to the performance by the Company and the Operating Partnership
of their respective obligations hereunder and to the continuing satisfaction of the additional conditions specified in Section 6
of this Agreement.


Section 3.

Act Regulations, of the suspension of the qualification of the Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, of the initiation
or threatening of any proceeding for any such purpose, or of any request by the Commission for the amending or supplementing of
the form of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or for additional information, and (v) in the event of the issuance
of any such stop order or of any such order preventing or suspending the use of the Prospectus in respect of the Shares or suspending

    	 	15	 



     

    

(b)              
Promptly from time to time to take such action as the Agent may reasonably request to qualify the Shares for offering
and sale under the securities laws of such United States jurisdictions as the Agent may request and to comply with such laws so
as to permit the continuance of sales and dealings therein in such jurisdictions for as long as may be necessary to complete the
sale of the Shares, provided that in connection therewith neither the Company nor the Operating Partnership shall be required
to qualify as a foreign entity, subject itself to taxation or to file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction;
and to promptly advise the Agent of the receipt by the Company or the Operating Partnership of any notification with respect to
the suspension of the qualification of the Shares for offer or sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any
proceeding for such purpose.


(c)               
During any period when the delivery of a prospectus is required (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 153
or 172, or in lieu thereof, a notice referred to in Rule 173(a) of the 1933 Act Regulations) in connection with the offering
or sale of Shares, the Company will make available to the Agent, as soon as practicable after the execution of this Agreement,
and thereafter from time to time furnish to the Agent, copies of the most recent Prospectus in such quantities and at such locations

as a result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
were made when such Prospectus is delivered, not misleading, or, if for any other reason it shall be necessary during such same

be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified,
to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent
of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified
party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under
this Section 7 for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified
party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable out-of-pocket costs of investigation. No indemnifying party
shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), effect the settlement
or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect
of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential
party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the
indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an
admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.


(d)              
If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable to hold harmless an indemnified party
under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as
a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand and the Agent on the other
from the offering of the Shares to which such loss, claim, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof) relates. If, however,
the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then each indemnifying party
shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not
only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand and the Agent
on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company
and the Operating Partnership on the one hand and the Agent on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total
net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total commissions received by the
Agent. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company
and the Operating Partnership on the one hand or the Agent on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access
to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company, the Operating Partnership and the
Agent agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above
in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal
or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action
or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), the Agent shall not be required to contribute any amount
in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Shares sold by it to the public were offered to the public exceeds
the amount of any damages which the Agent has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of
the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e)               
The obligations of the Company and the Operating Partnership under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any
liability which the Company and the Operating Partnership may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions,
to the directors and officers of the Agent and to each person, if any, who controls the Agent within the meaning of the 1933 Act
and each broker-dealer affiliate of the Agent; and the obligations of the Agent under this Section 7 shall be in addition
to any liability which the Agent may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director
of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Operating Partnership within the meaning of the 1933
Act.


Section 8.                
Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations,
warranties and other statements of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Agent, as set forth in this Agreement or made
by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation
(or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of the Agent or any controlling person of the Agent, or the
Company or the Operating Partnership, or any officer or director of the Company or controlling person of the Company or the Operating
Partnership, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Shares.


Section 9.                
No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. The Company and the Operating Partnership each acknowledges and agrees
that (i) the Agent is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Company and
the Operating Partnership with respect to the offering of Shares contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining
the terms of such offering) and (ii) the Agent has not assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company
or the Operating Partnership with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of
whether the Agent has advised or is currently advising the Company or the Operating Partnership on other matters) or any other
obligation to the Company or the Operating Partnership except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement and (iii) the
Company and the Operating Partnership have consulted their own legal and financial advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate.
The Company and the Operating Partnership each agrees that it will not claim that the Agent has rendered advisory services of
any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Company or the Operating Partnership, in connection with such
transaction or the process leading thereto.

Section 10.            
Termination.


(a)               
The Company shall have the right, by giving written notice as hereinafter specified, to terminate this Agreement
in its sole discretion at any time. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party, except that
(i) with respect to any pending sale through the Agent for the Company or with respect to any pending sale to the Agent pursuant
to a Term Agreement or any offering or resale of any Shares purchased or to be purchased by the Agent pursuant to a Terms Agreement,
the obligations of the Company, including in respect of compensation of the Agent, shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding
such termination; and (ii) the provisions of Section 1, Section 5, Section 7 and Section 8 of this Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination.


(b)              
The Agent shall have the right, by giving written notice as hereinafter specified, to terminate this Agreement in
its sole discretion at any time. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the
provisions of Section 1, Section 5, Section 7 and Section 8 of this Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect notwithstanding such termination.


(c)               
This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until and unless terminated pursuant to Section 10(a) or
(b) above or otherwise by mutual agreement of the parties; provided that any such termination by mutual agreement or pursuant
to this clause (c) shall in all cases be deemed to provide that Section 1, Section 5, Section 7 and Section 8
of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.


(d)              
Any termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of termination; provided
that such termination shall not be effective until the close of business on the date of receipt of such notice by the Agent or
the Company, as the case may be. If such termination shall occur prior to the Settlement Date for any sale of Shares, such sale
shall settle in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(h) hereof.


(e)               
In the case of any purchase by the Agent pursuant to a Terms Agreement, the Agent may terminate this Agreement at
any time at or prior to the Settlement Date (i) if there has been, in the judgment of the Agent, since the time of execution
of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure
Package or the Prospectus, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business
affairs or business prospects of the Company, the Operating Partnership and their respective subsidiaries considered as one enterprise,
whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the
financial markets in the United States or the international financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof
or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political,
financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Agent, impracticable
or inadvisable to market the Shares or to enforce contracts for the sale of Shares, or (iii) if trading in any securities
of the Company has been suspended or materially limited by the Commission or the Principal Market, or if trading generally on
the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE Amex Equities or the Nasdaq Stock Market has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum
or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices have been required, by any of said exchanges or by
such system or by order of the Commission, FINRA or any other Governmental Entity, or (iv) a material disruption has occurred
in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States, or (v) if a banking moratorium
has been declared by either federal or New York authorities.

TERMS AGREEMENT


Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated

777 East Wisconsin Avenue


Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202


Ladies and Gentlemen:


Retail Opportunity Investments Corp., a Maryland corporation (the
“Company”), proposes, subject to the terms and conditions stated herein and in the Sales Agreement, dated May
23, 2016 (the “Sales Agreement”), among the Company, Retail Opportunity Investments Partnership, LP (the “Operating
Partnership”) and Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated (the “Agent”), to issue and sell to the Agent
the securities specified in the Schedule hereto (the “Purchased Securities”). Capitalized terms used herein
and not defined have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Sales Agreement.


Each of the provisions of the Sales Agreement not specifically
related to the solicitation by the Agent, as agent of the Company, of offers to purchase securities is incorporated herein by reference
in its entirety, and shall be deemed to be part of this Terms Agreement to the same extent as if such provisions had been set forth
in full herein. Each of the representations and warranties set forth therein shall be deemed to have been made at and as of the
date of this Terms Agreement and the Applicable Time, except that each representation and warranty in Section 1 of the Sales
Agreement which makes reference to the Prospectus (as therein defined) shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty as of
the date of the Sales Agreement in relation to the Prospectus, and also a representation and warranty as of the date of this Terms
Agreement and the Settlement Date in relation to the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to relate to the Purchased Securities.


An amendment to the Registration Statement (as defined in the
Sales Agreement), or a supplement to the Prospectus, as the case may be, relating to the Purchased Securities, in the form heretofore
delivered to the Agent is now proposed to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the
Sales Agreement which are incorporated herein by reference, the Company agrees to issue and sell to the Agent and the latter agrees
to purchase from the Company the number of shares of the Purchased Securities at the time and place and at the purchase price set
forth in the Schedule hereto.


If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our
agreement, please sign and return to the Company and the Operating Partnership a counterpart hereof, whereupon this instrument,
along with all counterparts, will become a binding agreement among the Agent, the Company and the Operating Partnership in accordance
with its terms.


THIS TERMS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
