Explanation of Responses:
(1)  Mr. Pittman tendered 985,273 Class A common units of limited partnership interest ("OP units") in Farmland Partners Operating Partnership, LP (the "Operating Partnership") for redemption. Farmland Partners Inc. (the "Company") satisfied the redemption by issuing 985,273 shares of the Company's common stock to Mr. Pittman. Mr. Pittman tendered his OP Units for redemption solely to achieve tax benefits and has no current intention to sell shares of the Company's common stock.
(2)  The Company is the sole member of the general partner of the Operating Partnership, the operating partnership of the Company. Commencing April 14, 2015, one year after the date of issuance, each OP Unit became redeemable for cash equal to the then-current market vlue of one share of the Company's common stock or, at the election of the Company, one share of the Company's common stock. OP Units have no expiration date.
