Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements made in this Current Report on Form 10-Q or incorporated by reference herein are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and, as such, may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe the Company’s future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “may”, “will”, “should”, “estimates”, “projects”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “expects”, “intends”, “future”, and words of similar import, or the negative thereof. Factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: (i) the possibility that any or all of the various conditions to the consummation of the Merger (as defined herein) may not be satisfied or waived; (ii) the ability of the parties to the Merger to obtain required financing in connection with the proposed Merger; (iii) the possibility that competing offers or acquisition proposals for the Company and/or its assets will be made; (iv) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement (as defined herein), including in circumstances which would require the Company to pay a termination fee or other expenses; (v) the risk that shareholder litigation in connection with the Transactions (as defined herein) may result in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability; (vi) the ability and willingness of the Company's tenants and other third parties to satisfy their obligations under their respective contractual arrangements with the Company; (vii) the loss or bankruptcy of the Company's tenants, particularly in light of the adverse impact to the financial health of many retailers that has occurred and continues to occur as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic; (viii) the ability and willingness of the Company's tenants to renew their leases with the Company upon expiration, the Company's ability to re-lease its properties on the same or better terms in the event of nonrenewal or in the event the Company exercises its right to replace an existing tenant, and obligations the Company may incur in connection with the replacement of an existing tenant; (ix) risks related to the market for retail space generally, including reductions in consumer spending, variability in retailer demand for leased space, adverse impact of e-commerce, ongoing consolidation in the retail sector and changes in economic conditions and consumer confidence; (x) risks endemic to real estate and the real estate industry generally; (xi) damage to the Company's properties from catastrophic weather and other natural events, and the physical effects of climate change; (xii) uninsured losses; (xiii) the Company's ability and willingness to maintain its qualification as a REIT in light of economic, market, legal, tax and other considerations; and (xiv) information technology security breaches. For further discussion of factors that could materially affect the outcome of forward-looking statements, see “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and other documents that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.

Except for ongoing obligations to disclose material information as required by the federal securities laws, the Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. All of the above factors are difficult to predict, contain uncertainties that may materially affect the Company’s actual results and may be beyond the Company’s control. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company’s management to predict all such factors or to assess the effects of each factor on the Company’s business. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company’s current expectations will be realized.

Note 1. Business and Organization

Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that focuses primarily on ownership, operation and redevelopment of grocery-anchored shopping centers in high-density urban markets from Washington, D.C. to Boston. At June 30, 2022, the Company owned and managed a portfolio of 17 operating properties (excluding properties “held for sale”).

Cedar Realty Trust Partnership, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) is the entity through which the Company conducts substantially all of its business and owns (either directly or through subsidiaries) substantially all of its assets. At June 30, 2022, the Company owned a 99.6% general and limited partnership interest in, and was the sole general partner of, the Operating Partnership. The limited partners’ interest in the Operating Partnership (0.4% at June 30, 2022) is represented by partnership units in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”). The carrying amount of such interest is adjusted at the end of each reporting period to an amount equal to the limited partners’ ownership percentage of the Operating Partnership’s net equity. The 49,000 OP Units outstanding at June 30, 2022 are economically equivalent to shares of the Company’s common stock. The holders of OP Units have the right to exchange their OP Units for the same number of shares of the Company’s common stock or, at the Company’s option, for cash. Unless specifically noted otherwise, all references to OP Units exclude limited partnership units held by the Company.

As used herein, the “Company” refers to Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, including the Operating Partnership or, where the context so requires, Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. only.

Transaction Agreements

On March 2, 2022, the Company announced that following its previously announced review of strategic alternatives, it had entered into definitive agreements for the sale of the Company and its assets in a series of related all-cash transactions. Specifically, on March 2, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, DRA Fund X-B LLC and KPR Centers LLC (together with their respective designees, the “Grocery-Anchored Purchasers”) entered into an asset purchase and sale agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Grocery-Anchored Purchasers will acquire a portfolio of 33 grocery-anchored shopping centers from the Company for a cash purchase price of $840.0 million (the “Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale”). The Asset Purchase Agreement provides that to the extent specified redevelopment assets (Riverview Plaza, East River Park and Senator Square, which have been classified as “real estate held for sale” as of March 31, 2022) of the Company are not sold by the Company to third parties prior to the closing of the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale, these assets will be acquired by the Grocery-Anchored Purchasers for an additional cash purchase price of up to $80.5 million. In addition, on March 2, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Wheeler Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (“Wheeler”) and certain of its affiliates pursuant to which, following closing of the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale, Wheeler will acquire the balance of the Company’s shopping center assets by way of an all-cash merger transaction that values the remaining portfolio at $291.3 million. Following completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Company will survive as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wheeler. The Company’s currently outstanding 7.25% Series B Preferred Stock and 6.50% Series C Preferred Stock will remain outstanding as shares of preferred stock in the surviving company following the transactions and are expected to remain listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

The transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement and the Merger Agreement are collectively referred to as the “Transactions”. The Transactions were unanimously approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and were approved by the Company’s common stockholders at a special meeting of stockholders held on May 27, 2022, and are estimated to generate total net proceeds, after all transaction expenses, of approximately $29.00 per share in cash, which will be distributed to shareholders upon completion of the Merger. The Merger is expected to close in August 2022, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

On July 7, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries completed the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale and East River Park and Senator Square sales for total gross proceeds of approximately $879 million, including the assumed debt. There were no material relationships among the Company, the Grocery-Anchored Purchasers, or any of their respective affiliates. In connection with the transactions discussed above, the Company incurred transaction costs of $34.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, included in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations, of which $23.6 million relates to future employee severance payments.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation/Basis of Preparation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statement disclosures. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for fair presentation (including normal recurring accruals) have been included. The financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis in accordance with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods covered by the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The unaudited consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company, the Operating Partnership, its subsidiaries, and certain joint venture partnerships in which it participates. The Company consolidates all variable interest entities for which it is the primary beneficiary. Certain prior year amounts in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2020, the FASB issued a question-and-answer document (the “Lease Modification Q&A”) focused on the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”). Under existing lease guidance, the Company would have to determine, on a lease by lease basis, if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant (treated with the lease modification accounting framework) or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement (precluded from applying the lease modification accounting framework). The Lease Modification Q&A clarifies that entities may elect to not evaluate whether lease-related relief that lessors provide to mitigate the economic effects of COVID-19 on lessees is a lease modification under ASC 842. Instead, an entity that elects not to evaluate whether a concession directly related to COVID-19 is a modification can then elect whether to apply the modification guidance (i.e. assume the relief was always contemplated by the contract or assume the relief was not contemplated by the contract). Both lessees and lessors may make this election. The Company is evaluating its election on a disaggregated basis, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company provided lease concessions to certain tenants in response to the impact of COVID-19, in the form of rent deferrals. The Company has made an election to account for such lease concessions consistent with how those concessions would be accounted for under ASC 842 if enforceable rights and obligations for those concessions had already existed in the leases. This election is available for concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic that do not result in a substantial increase in our rights as lessor, including concessions that result in the total payments required by the modified lease being substantially the same as or less than total payments required by the original lease.

Substantially all of the Company’s concessions to date provide for a deferral of payments with no substantive changes to the consideration in the original lease. These deferrals affect the timing, but not the amount, of the lease payments. The Company is accounting for these deferrals as if no changes to the lease were made. Under this accounting, the Company increases its receivables

as tenant payments accrue and continues to recognize rental income. Through June 30, 2022, the Company has entered into lease modifications that deferred approximately $3.5 million, of which $2.4 million relates to deferrals that the Company continued to recognize rental income. In addition, through June 30, 2022, the Company has entered into agreements that waived approximately $2.4 million of rent. As of June 30, 2022, less than $0.1 million of the $3.5 million deferred lease modifications remain outstanding.

Note 3. Real Estate

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture

On May 5, 2021, the Company formed a joint venture with Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group and Asland Capital Partners (the “Joint Venture”) for the construction of an approximately 258,000 square foot six-story commercial building in Washington, D.C. consisting of approximately 240,000 square feet of office space which is 100% leased to the Washington, D.C., Department of General Services (“DGS”) for its headquarters and approximately 18,000 square feet of street-level retail. The term of the lease with DGS is for 20 years and 10 months, to commence upon substantial completion and delivery to the DGS. This building is planned as the first phase of Northeast Heights, a redevelopment of two existing shopping centers, East River Park and Senator Square, into a mixed-use residential, office and retail property. Further, the Joint Venture has secured construction financing from JP Morgan not to exceed $105 million. The construction loan initially bears interest at LIBOR plus 200 basis points and has an initial term of three years with two, one-year extension options subject to customary conditions. The Company has a 10% interest in the joint venture and is a co-general partner along with Asland Capital Partners. The Company has contributed approximately $4.8 million of capital to the Joint Venture as of June 30, 2022. The Company sold approximately $8.0 million of development costs to the Joint Venture as part of its formation on May 5, 2021.

The Joint Venture currently estimates that the space will be delivered during the end of the fourth quarter 2022. Upon completion of the building, DGS will be obligated to pay initial annual net rent of approximately $5.4 million per year, subject to a 2.5% annual escalator on each anniversary of rent commencement, plus certain operating costs, property taxes and amortization of tenant improvements together totaling approximately an additional $8.1 million per year, for an aggregate total annual rent of approximately $13.5 million. The lease provides for a free rent period of 10 months immediately following rent commencement. The Lease also provides DGS with a tenant credit of approximately $6.8 million to be applied, at DGS’s election, against either annual rent or any other tenant payment obligations including tenant improvement costs, in excess of the tenant improvement allowance. Pursuant to the lease, the Joint Venture will contribute up to $155 per rentable square foot toward the cost of tenant improvements, to be amortized over 240 months. In addition, the lease provides that the Joint Venture will contribute $9.38 per rentable square foot in additional tenant improvement allowance between the 10th and 12th lease years, upon DGS’s timely election. The obligations of DGS under the Lease are subject to annual budget appropriation.

Acquisitions

On June 28, 2022, the Company acquired the 40% minority ownership percentage in the Crossroads joint venture for $1.0 million. Crossroads was included in the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale that occurred on July 7, 2022.

Discontinued Operations

On July 7, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries completed the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale and East River Park and Senator Square sales for total gross proceeds of approximately $879 million, including the assumed debt. The Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale represents a strategic shift and will have a material effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, and, therefore, the Company has determined that it is deemed a discontinued operation. Accordingly, the portfolio of 33 grocery-anchored shopping centers have been classified as held for sale and the results of their operations have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented herein. With the reclass to held for sale, there were additional impairments of $16.1 million recorded during the second quarter of 2022. The following is a summary of income from discontinued operations:

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, rents and other receivables, certain other assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and variable-rate debt approximate their fair value due to their terms and/or short-term nature. The fair value of the Company’s investments and liabilities related to deferred compensation were determined to be Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy, and were based on independent values provided by financial institutions.

The fair value of the Company’s fixed rate mortgage loan was estimated using available market information and discounted cash flow analyses based on borrowing rates the Company believes it could obtain with a similar term and maturities. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of the Company’s fixed rate mortgage loan payable, which was determined to be Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy, was $146.4 million and $159.0 million, respectively; the carrying value of such loan was $156.4 million and $156.8 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, the aggregate fair values of the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility and term loans approximated the carrying values. In addition, the fair values of the Company’s

mortgage note receivable and finance lease obligation, which were determined to be Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy, approximated their carrying values as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The valuations of the liabilities for the Company’s interest rate swaps, which are measured on a recurring basis, were determined to be Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy, and were based on independent values provided by financial institutions. Such valuations were determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analyses, on the expected cash flows of each derivative. The analyses reflect the contractual terms of the swaps, including the period to maturity, and user-observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves (“significant other observable inputs”). The fair value calculation also includes an amount for risk of non-performance using “significant unobservable inputs” such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default. The Company has concluded that, as of June 30, 2022, the fair value associated with the “significant unobservable inputs” relating to the Company’s risk of non-performance was insignificant to the overall fair value of the interest rate swap agreements and, as a result, that the relevant inputs for purposes of calculating the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements, in their entirety, were based upon “significant other observable inputs”.

Nonfinancial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated financial statements consist of real estate held for sale, which, if applicable, are measured on a nonrecurring basis, and have been determined to be (1) Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy, where applicable, based on the respective contracts of sale, adjusted for closing costs and expenses, or (2) Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy, where applicable, based on estimated sales prices, adjusted for closing costs and expenses, determined by discounted cash flow analyses, income capitalization analyses or a sales comparison approach if no contracts had been concluded. The discounted cash flow and income capitalization analyses include all estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specific holding period and, where applicable, any estimated debt premiums. These cash flows were composed of unobservable inputs which included forecasted rental revenues and expenses based upon existing in-place leases, market conditions and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these analyses were based upon observable rates that the Company believed to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties. The sales comparison approach is utilized for certain land values and includes comparable sales that were completed in the selected market areas. The comparable sales utilized in these analyses were based upon observable per acre rates that the Company believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties.

The following tables show the hierarchy for those assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively:

(a)

The mortgages for these properties are cross-collateralized.

(b)

The revolving credit facility is subject to two one-year extensions at the Company’s option.

(c)

The interest rates on these term loans consist of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a credit spread based on the Company’s leverage ratio, for which the Company has interest rate swap agreements which convert the LIBOR rates to fixed rates. Accordingly, these term loans are presented as fixed-rate debt.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loans

On August 30, 2021, the Company amended its existing $300 million unsecured credit facility and $50 million term loan. After the amendment, the new unsecured revolving credit facility is $185 million with an expiration in August 2024. The new unsecured revolving credit facility may be extended, at the Company’s option for two additional one-year periods, subject to customary conditions. Interest on the borrowings under the new unsecured revolving credit facility component can range from LIBOR plus 135 bps to 195 bps (150 bps at June 30, 2022), based on the Company’s leverage ratio. The Company extended its $50 million term loan four years with an expiration in August 2026.

The Company’s unsecured credit facility and term loans contain financial covenants including, but not limited to, maximum debt leverage, maximum secured debt, minimum fixed charge coverage, and minimum net worth. In addition, the facility contains restrictions including, but not limited to, limits on indebtedness, certain investments and distributions. The Company’s failure to comply with the covenants or the occurrence of an event of default under the facilities could result in the acceleration of the related debt and exercise of other lender remedies. Although the credit facility is unsecured, borrowing availability is based on unencumbered property adjusted net operating income for the trailing twelve months, as defined in the agreements. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $41.0 million outstanding under its revolving credit facility. The unsecured credit facility and term notes were paid off on July 11, 2022, in connection with the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale.

Mortgage Loans Payable

On May 5, 2021, the Company closed a non-recourse mortgage for $114.0 million. The mortgage matures June 1, 2031, bears interest at a fixed-rate of 3.49% and requires payment of interest only for the first five years followed by payments of principal and interest based on thirty-year amortization for the remainder of the term. The loan is secured by five shopping centers consisting of Lawndale Plaza, The Shops at Suffolk Downs, Christina Crossing, Trexlertown Plaza, and The Point. These properties had no pre-existing debt and the proceeds from this new loan were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility. The mortgage loans payable were assumed by the Grocery-Anchored Purchasers.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The fair values of the interest rate swaps applicable to the unsecured term loans discussed above are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2022. Charges and/or credits relating to the changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps are made to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), limited partners’ interest, or operations (included in interest expense), as applicable. Over time, the unrealized gains and losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into earnings as an increase or reduction to interest expense in the same periods in which the hedged interest payments affect earnings.

Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is a party to certain legal actions arising in the normal course of business. Management does not expect there to be adverse consequences from these actions that would be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company is the lessee under several ground lease and its executive office lease agreement. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s weighted average remaining lease term is approximately 49.3 years and the weighted average discount rate used to calculate the Company’s lease liability is approximately 8.6%. Rent expense under the Company’s ground lease and executive office lease agreements was approximately $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Rent expense under the Company’s ground lease and executive office lease agreements was approximately $0.2 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

As a result of COVID-19, the Company has received numerous rent relief requests, most often in the form of rent deferrals. The Company has evaluated, and continues to evaluate, each tenant rent relief request on an individual basis, considering a number of factors. Through June 30, 2022, the Company deferred approximately $3.5 million and waived approximately $2.4 million of rental income, respectively. To date, the weighted average payback period for the remaining deferred rent receivable is approximately 10 months, beginning at various times from July 2020 through June 2021.

As described in Note 1, on March 2, 2022, the Company entered into definitive agreements for the Transactions, which contemplate sale of the Company and all of its assets in a series of related all-cash transactions. On April 5, 2022, a purported stockholder of the Company filed a complaint against the Company and the Board in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, entitled Stein v. Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. et. al., Civil Action No. 22-cv-1944. On April 6, 2022, another purported stockholder of the Company filed a complaint against the Company and the Board in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, entitled Wang v. Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. et. al., Civil Action No. 22-cv-1975. On April 18, 2022, another purported stockholder of the Company filed a complaint against the Company and the Board in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, entitled Whitfield v. Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. et. al., Civil Action No. 22-cv-02204. Also on April 18, 2022, a purported stockholder filed a complaint against the Company and the Board in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, entitled Waterman v. Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. et. al., Civil Action No. 22-cv-01489. On April 22, 2022, a purported stockholder filed a complaint against the Company and the Board in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, entitled Thornburgh v. Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. et. al., Civil Action No. 22-cv-02304. In each action, the complaint alleges violations of Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) in connection with the proposed Transactions. The complaints generally allege that the preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed by the Company with the SEC on April 5, 2022 omits material information regarding financial projections, the financial analysis conducted by JLL Securities in connection with its fairness opinion, conflicts of interest on behalf of JLL Securities and BofA Securities, and the terms of BofA Securities’ engagement. The complaints seek, among other things, an injunction preventing the consummation of the Transactions, or, in the event the Transactions are consummated, to recover damages resulting from defendants’ alleged violations of the Exchange Act.

On April 8, 2022, several purported holders of the Company’s outstanding preferred stock filed a putative class action complaint against the Company, the Board, and Wheeler in Montgomery County Circuit Court, Maryland entitled Sydney, et al. v. Cedar Realty Trust, Inc., et al., (Case No. C-15-CV-22-00152). The complaint alleges on behalf of a putative class of holders of the Company’s preferred stock, among other things, against the Company and the Board, claims for breach of contract with respect to the articles supplementary governing the terms of the Company’s preferred stock, breach of fiduciary duty, and tortious interference and aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty against Wheeler. The complaint seeks, among other things, a declaration that holders of the Company’s preferred stock are entitled to a liquidation preference as set forth in the articles supplementary governing the terms of the Company’s preferred stock, compensatory damages, and an injunction enjoining the merger with Wheeler, and an injunction enjoining the distribution to the Company’s common shareholders of the proceeds of any of the Transactions pending a determination of the merits of plaintiffs’ claims.

of contract with respect to the articles supplementary governing the terms of the Company’s preferred stock and breach of fiduciary duty, and, against Wheeler, tortious interference and aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty. The Sydney amended complaint seeks, among other things, (i) a declaration that holders of the Company’s preferred stock are entitled to exercise either their liquidation rights or conversion rights as set forth in the articles supplementary, (ii) compensatory damages, (iii) an injunction enjoining the distribution to the Company’s common shareholders of the proceeds of the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale, and (iv) an injunction enjoining the Merger. On May 6, 2022, the plaintiffs in Sydney filed a motion for a preliminary injunction to temporarily enjoin, until the final resolution of the litigation (i) the distribution of the gross proceeds from the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale to the common stockholders, (ii) the closing of the Merger, and (iii) the imposition of a constructive trust over the gross proceeds from both the Grocery Anchored Portfolio Sale and the Merger. Also on May, 6, 2022, a purported holder of the Company’s outstanding preferred stock filed a putative class action complaint against the Company and the Board in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, entitled Kim v. Cedar Realty Trust, Inc., et al., Civil Action No. 22-cv-01103. The complaint alleges on behalf of a putative class of holders of the Company’s preferred stock, among other things, claims for declaratory and injunctive relief with respect to the articles supplementary governing the terms of the Company’s preferred stock and breach of fiduciary duty. On May 11, 2022, the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company and Wheeler removed the Sydney action to the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, Case No. 8:22-cv-01142-GLR. On May 16, 2022, the court ordered that a hearing on the Sydney plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary injunction will be held on June 22, 2022. On June 2, 2022, the plaintiffs in Kim filed a motion for a preliminary injunction (i) to require that the Company provide preferred shareholders with a vote to approve the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale and the Merger, and (ii) requiring Cedar disclose to preferred shareholders that the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale and Merger entitled the preferred stockholders to exercise their change of control conversion right. The court agreed to consolidate the Kim plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary injunction with the Sydney plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary injunction, and to hear arguments on both motions at the hearing on June 22, 2022.

On June 23, 2022, following a hearing on both the Sydney and Kim motions for preliminary injunction, the court issued an order denying both motions for preliminary injunction, holding that the plaintiffs in both cases were unlikely to succeed on the merits of any of their contractual or fiduciary duty claims, and that plaintiffs had not established that they would suffer irreparable harm if the injunction was denied. By order dated July 11, 2022, the Court consolidated this case with another class action brought by a preferred stockholder and set August 24, 2022 for the plaintiffs in both cases to file a consolidated amended complaint.

Total rents	$	8,367,000		$	10,603,000	$	16,443,000		$	21,445,000

The Company reviews the collectability of charges under its tenant operating leases on a regular basis, taking into consideration changes in factors such as the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area where the property is located. During 2022 and 2021, the Company’s assessment has specifically included the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which represents a material risk to collectability. In the event that collectability with respect to any tenant changes the Company recognizes an adjustment to rental income. The Company’s review of collectability of charges under its operating leases includes any accrued rental revenues related to the straight-line method of reporting rental revenue. The Company identified various tenants where collection was no longer considered probable. The determination to record revenue on a cash basis and write off any outstanding straight-line receivable from these various tenants reduced net income $0.0 million and $0.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. In addition, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, $0.4 million and $0.8 million of billed charges, consisting of rent and tenant reimbursements, were unpaid, and based on the Company’s determination to record revenue on a cash basis for these tenants, these amounts were not recorded as revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one common share if certain market performance criteria are achieved. Each DER accrues and will be deemed to be reinvested into the Company’s common stock for which payment will only be made for the portion of the market performance-based equity award that are earned and vest. During the three years ending June 15, 2021 (the “Interim Performance Period”), a maximum of 113,636 shares were earned. Any portion of the market performance-based equity award that was not earned as of the end of the Interim Performance Period will be carried forward for calculation for the five years ending June 15, 2023 (the “Full Performance Period”). The percentage of the market performance-based equity award to be earned will be determined based on the Company’s annual return on an investment in the Company’s common stock (“TSR”) over the Interim Performance Period and/or over the Full Performance Period as follows: if average annual TSR (1) is below 4%, the percentage of grant earned would be 0%, (2) equals 4%, the percentage of grant earned would be 33.3%, (3) equals 6.5%, the percentage of grant earned would be 66.7%, and (4) equals 10% or above, the percentage of grant earned would be 100%. Linear interpolation shall be applied to determine the percentage of the market performance-based equity award that is earned where the average annual TSR over the performance period falls between the percentages set forth above. Based on market performance for the Interim Performance Period, it was determined the Company’s President and CEO earned 113,636 shares. Accordingly, on July 20, 2021, the Company issued 113,636 common shares to the CEO and paid him $0.3 million for the related DERs.

The DERs will accrue and will be deemed to be reinvested into the Company’s common stock and payment with respect to the dividend equivalent rights will be deferred until the end of the Interim Performance Period, or the Full Performance Period, as the case may be, to coincide with the vesting, if any, of the market performance-based equity award. Payment will only be made for the portion of the market performance-based equity award that is earned and vests.

Note 10. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to the Company’s common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period including participating securities (restricted shares that have non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends issued pursuant to the Company’s share-based compensation program are considered participating securities). Unvested restricted shares that are participating securities are not allocated net losses and/or any excess of dividends declared over net income, as such amounts are allocated entirely to the common shareholders. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had 0.3 million of weighted average unvested restricted shares outstanding that were participating securities. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company had 0.5 million of weighted average unvested restricted shares outstanding that were participating securities. The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the EPS calculations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

	Three months ended June 30,						Six months ended June 30,
	2022			2021			2022			2021

Net (loss) income from continuing operations	$	(34,342,000	)	$	46,011,000		$	(41,155,000	)	$	40,726,000

Net (loss) income per common share attributable to common shareholders (basic and diluted):
Continuing operations	$	(2.78	)	$	3.11		$	(3.49	)	$	2.51
Discontinued operations		(0.63	)		0.41			(0.20	)		0.90
	$	(3.41	)	$	3.52		$	(3.69	)	$	3.41

Fully-diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into shares of common stock. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, no restricted stock units (“RSU’s”) would have been issuable under the Company’s President and CEO market performance-based equity award had the measurement period ended on June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively, and therefore this market performance-based equity award had no impact in calculation diluted EPS. Net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests of the Operating Partnership has been excluded from the numerator and the related OP Units have been excluded from the denominator for the purpose of calculating diluted EPS as there would have been no dilutive effect had such amounts been included. The weighted average number of OP Units outstanding were 65,000 and 73,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and 81,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Note 11. Subsequent Events

In determining subsequent events, management reviewed all activity from July 1, 2022 through the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Other than those events disclosed in this report, there were no other events or transactions that occurred that would require adjustment to, or disclosure in, the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

Executive Summary

The Company is a fully-integrated real estate investment trust that focuses primarily on ownership, operation and redevelopment of grocery-anchored shopping centers in high-density urban markets from Washington, D.C. to Boston. At June 30, 2022, the Company owned and managed a portfolio of 17 operating properties (excluding properties “held for sale”) totaling 2.6 million square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”). The portfolio was 86.1% leased and 86.3% occupied at June 30, 2022.

The Company derives substantially all of its revenues from rents and operating expense reimbursements received pursuant to leases. The Company’s operating results therefore depend on the ability of its tenants to make the payments required by the terms of their leases. The Company focuses its investment activities on grocery-anchored shopping centers. The Company believes that, because of the need of consumers to purchase food and other staple goods and services generally available at such centers, its type of “necessities-based” properties should provide relatively stable revenue flows even during difficult economic times.

Significant Circumstances and Transactions

Transaction Agreements

On March 2, 2022, the Company announced that following its previously announced review of strategic alternatives, it had entered into definitive agreements for the sale of the Company and its assets in a series of related all-cash transactions. Specifically, on March 2, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, DRA Fund X-B LLC and KPR Centers LLC (together with their respective designees, the “Grocery-Anchored Purchasers”) entered into an asset purchase and sale agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Grocery-Anchored Purchasers will acquire a portfolio of 33 grocery-anchored shopping centers from the Company for a cash purchase price of $840.0 million (the “Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale”). The Asset Purchase Agreement provides that to the extent specified redevelopment assets (Riverview Plaza, East River Park and Senator Square, which have been classified as “real estate held for sale” as of March 31, 2022) of the Company are not sold by the Company to third parties prior to the closing of the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale, these assets will be acquired by the Grocery-Anchored Purchasers for an additional cash purchase price of up to $80.5 million. In addition, on March 2, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Wheeler Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (“Wheeler”) and certain of its affiliates pursuant to which, following closing of the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale, Wheeler will acquire the balance of the Company’s shopping center assets by way of an all-cash merger transaction that values the remaining portfolio at $291.3 million (the “Merger”). Following completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Company will survive as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wheeler. The Company’s currently outstanding 7.25% Series B Preferred Stock and 6.50% Series C Preferred Stock will remain outstanding as shares of preferred stock in the surviving company following the transactions and are expected to remain listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

COVID-19 Pandemic

As a result of COVID-19, the Company has received numerous rent relief requests, most often in the form of rent deferrals. The Company has entered into lease modifications that deferred approximately $3.5 million and waived approximately $2.4 million of

rental income through June 30, 2022, respectively. To date, the weighted average payback period of deferred rent is approximately 10 months, beginning at various times from July 2020 through June 2021.

Real Estate

On October 14, 2021, the Company acquired the 60% minority ownership percentage in the San Souci Plaza joint venture. On June 28, 2022, the Company acquired the 40% minority ownership percentage in the Crossroads joint venture.

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture

On May 5, 2021, the Company formed a joint venture with Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group and Asland Capital Partners (the “Joint Venture”) for the construction of an approximately 258,000 square foot six-story commercial building in Washington, D.C. consisting of approximately 240,000 square feet of office space which is 100% leased to the Washington, D.C., Department of General Services (“DGS”) for its headquarters and approximately 18,000 square feet of street-level retail. The term of the lease with DGS is for 20 years and 10 months, to commence upon substantial completion and delivery to the DGS. This building is planned as the first phase of Northeast Heights, a redevelopment of two existing shopping centers, East River Park and Senator Square, into a mixed-use residential, office and retail property. Further, the Joint Venture has secured construction financing from JP Morgan not to exceed $105 million. The construction loan initially bears interest at LIBOR plus 200 basis points and has an initial term of three years with two, one-year extension options subject to customary conditions. The Company has a 10% interest in the joint venture and is a co-general partner along with Asland Capital Partners. The Company has contributed approximately $4.8 million of capital to the Joint Venture as of June 30, 2022. The Company has sold approximately $8.0 million of development costs to the Joint Venture as part of its formation on May 5, 2021.

The Joint Venture currently estimates that the space will be delivered during the end of the fourth quarter 2022. Upon completion of the building, DGS will be obligated to pay initial annual net rent of approximately $5.4 million per year, subject to a 2.5% annual escalator on each anniversary of rent commencement, plus certain operating costs, property taxes and amortization of tenant improvements together totaling approximately an additional $8.1 million per year, for an aggregate total annual rent of approximately $13.5 million. The lease provides for a free rent period of 10 months immediately following rent commencement. The lease also provides DGS with a tenant credit of approximately $6.8 million to be applied, at DGS’s election, against either annual rent or any other tenant payment obligations including tenant improvement costs, in excess of the tenant improvement allowance. Pursuant to the lease, the Joint Venture will contribute up to $155 per rentable square foot toward the cost of tenant improvements, to be amortized over 240 months. In addition, the lease provides that the Joint Venture will contribute $9.38 per rentable square foot in additional tenant improvement allowance between the 10th and 12th lease years, upon DGS’s timely election. The obligations of DGS under the lease are subject to annual budget appropriation.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loans

Mortgage Loans Payable

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, real estate investments and purchase accounting allocations related thereto, asset impairment, and derivatives used to hedge interest-rate risks. Management’s estimates are based both on information that is currently available and on various other assumptions management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those estimates could be different under varying assumptions or conditions.

The Company believes there have been no material changes to the items disclosed as its critical accounting policies under Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. See Note 2 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for recently-adopted accounting pronouncements.

Same-Property Net Operating Income

Same-property net operating income (“same-property NOI”) is a widely-used non-GAAP financial measure for REITs that the Company believes, when considered with financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, is useful to investors as it provides an indication of the recurring cash generated by the Company’s properties by excluding certain non-cash revenues and expenses, as well as other infrequent items such as lease termination income which tends to fluctuate more than rents from year to year. Properties are included in same-property NOI if they are owned and operated for the entirety of both periods being compared, except for properties undergoing significant redevelopment and expansion until such properties have stabilized, and properties classified as held for sale. Consistent with the capital treatment of such costs under GAAP, tenant improvements, leasing commissions and other direct leasing costs are excluded from same-property NOI.

The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is consolidated operating income. Same-property NOI should not be considered as an alternative to consolidated operating income prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of liquidity. Further, same-property NOI is a measure for which there is no standard industry definition and, as such, it is not consistently defined or reported on among the Company’s peers, and thus may not provide an adequate basis for comparison among REITs.

The following table reconciles same-property NOI to the Company’s consolidated operating income:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company funds operating expenses and other short-term liquidity requirements, including debt service, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, preferred and common dividend distributions and distributions to minority interest partners, if made, primarily from its operations. The Company may also use its revolving credit facility for these purposes. The Company expects to fund long-term liquidity requirements for property acquisitions, redevelopment costs, capital improvements, and maturing debt initially with its revolving credit facility, and ultimately through a combination of issuing and/or assuming additional debt, the sale of equity securities, the issuance of additional OP Units, and/or the sale of properties. Although the Company believes it has access to secured and unsecured financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will have access to financing for development projects, financing for additional construction projects, or proceeds from refinancing of existing debt.

On August 30, 2021, the Company amended its existing $300 million unsecured credit facility and $50 million term loan. After the amendment, the new unsecured revolving credit facility is $185 million with an expiration in August 2024. The new unsecured revolving credit facility may be extended, at the Company’s option for two additional one-year periods, subject to customary conditions. Interest on the borrowings under the new unsecured revolving credit facility component can range from LIBOR plus 135 bps to 195 bps (150 bps at June 30, 2022), based on the Company’s leverage ratio. Interest on borrowings under the unsecured credit facility is based on the Company’s leverage ratio. The Company extended its $50 million term loan four years with an expiration in August 2026.

Debt and finance lease obligations are composed of the following at June 30, 2022:

In order to continue qualifying as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income”, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company paid common and preferred stock dividends during 2021 and through the first quarter of 2022 and has continued to declare and pay preferred stock dividends through the second quarter of 2022. Future dividend declarations will continue to be at the discretion of the Board of Directors, and will depend on the cash flow and financial condition of the Company, capital requirements, annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code, and such other factors as the Board of Directors may deem relevant. Additionally, the Board of Directors may reduce, as it did with the May 2020 common stock dividend of $0.01 per common share, or suspend payment of dividends to retain cash and reduce debt obligations and/or to fund redevelopments and other capital needs. The Company intends to continue to operate its business in a manner that will allow it to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax requirements.

Net Cash Flows

	For the six months ended June 30,
	2022			2021
Cash flows provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	16,082,000		$	24,804,000
Investing activities	$	14,779,000		$	88,254,000
Financing activities	$	(32,858,000	)	$	(108,862,000	)

Operating Activities

Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities, before net changes in operating assets and liabilities, was $(10.4) million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and $24.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily a result of property dispositions in 2021 and the accrued transaction costs related to the previously announced dual-track strategic alternatives process.

Investing Activities

Net cash flows used in investing activities were primarily the result of the Company’s expenditures for property improvements and property disposition activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 the Company incurred expenditures of $16.9 million for property improvements, $0.2 million relating to contributions to the Company’s unconsolidated joint venture and received $31.9 million in proceeds due from the sale of Riverview Plaza. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company received $104.5 million in proceeds from the sale of properties, which was partially offset by $138 million for property improvements and $2.5 million in contributions to an unconsolidated joint venture.

Financing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had $6.3 million of preferred and common stock distributions, and $0.6 million of mortgage repayments, which were partially offset by net repayments of ($25.0) million under the revolving credit facility and the purchase of a minority interest in a joint venture for ($1.0) million. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company had net payments of $163.0 million under the revolving credit facility, a $50.0 million of term note pay-off, $7.2 million of preferred and common stock distributions, $0.5 million of mortgage repayments, and $1.6 million of debt financing costs, $0.5 million of termination payments related to a swap liability, which were partially offset by net property specific mortgage note payables of $114.0 million.

Funds From Operations

Funds From Operations (“FFO”) is a widely recognized supplemental non-GAAP measure utilized to evaluate the financial performance of a REIT. The Company presents FFO in accordance with the definition adopted by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”). Nareit generally defines FFO as net income (determined in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (losses) from sales of real estate properties, impairment write-downs on real estate properties directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and adjustments for partnerships and joint ventures to reflect FFO on the same basis. The Company considers FFO to be an appropriate measure of its financial performance because it captures features particular to real estate performance by recognizing that real estate generally appreciates over time or maintains residual value to a much greater extent than other depreciable assets.

The Company also considers Operating Funds From Operations (“Operating FFO”) to be an additional meaningful financial measure of financial performance because it excludes items the Company does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance, such as non-capitalized acquisition pursuit costs, amounts relating to early extinguishment of debt and preferred stock redemption costs, management transition costs and certain redevelopment costs. The Company believes Operating FFO further assists in comparing the Company’s performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding such items.

FFO and Operating FFO should be reviewed with net income attributable to common shareholders, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, when trying to understand the Company’s operating performance. FFO and Operating FFO do not represent cash generated from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to common shareholders or to cash flow from operating activities. The Company’s computations of FFO and Operating FFO may differ from the computations utilized by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such REITs.

A reconciliation of net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders to FFO and Operating FFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 is as follows:

	Three months ended June 30,						Six months ended June 30,

Inflation

Prior to 2021, inflation was relatively low and did not have a significant detrimental impact on the Company’s results of operations. If inflation rates continue to increase, substantially all of the Company’s tenant leases contain provisions designed to partially mitigate the negative impact of inflation in the near term. Such lease provisions include clauses that require tenants to reimburse the Company for inflation-sensitive costs such as real estate taxes and many of the operating expenses it incurs. Significant inflation rate increases over a prolonged period of time may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

One of the principal market risks facing the Company is the risk of interest rate changes, primarily through its variable-rate revolving credit facility and term loans. The Company’s objectives with respect to interest rate risk are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on operations and cash flows, and to lower its overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, the Company may borrow at either fixed rates or at variable rates and enter into derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps, to mitigate its interest rate risk. The Company does not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes. The Company is not directly subject to foreign currency risk.

The Company has entered into forward interest rate swap agreements which convert the LIBOR rates to fixed rates for certain unsecured term loans. At June 30, 2022, the Company had $0.2 million included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and $3.2 million in other assets and deferred charges, net on the consolidated balance sheet relating to the fair value of the interest rate swaps applicable to certain unsecured term loans. The interest rate swaps were terminated as part of the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale.

At June 30, 2022, long-term debt consisted of a fixed-rate mortgage loan payable, a finance lease obligation, unsecured term loans, and the Company’s unsecured variable-rate credit facility. Excluding unamortized premiums and debt issuance costs, the average interest rate on the $463.6 million of fixed-rate debt outstanding was 3.7%, with maturities at various dates through 2050. The average interest rate on the $41.0 million of variable-rate debt outstanding, which consists of the unsecured revolving credit facility, was 3.1%. With respect to the $41.0 million of variable-rate debt, if contractual interest rates either increase or decrease by 100 bps, the Company’s interest cost would increase or decrease respectively by approximately $0.4 million per annum.

With respect to the Company’s fixed rate mortgage notes and unsecured term loans, changes in interest rates generally do not affect the Company’s interest expense as these notes are at fixed rates for extended terms. Because the Company presently intends to hold its existing fixed-rate debt either to maturity or until the sale of the associated property, these fixed-rate notes pose an interest rate risk to the Company’s results of operations and its working capital position only upon the refinancing of that indebtedness. The Company’s possible risk is from increases in long-term interest rates that may occur as this may increase the cost of refinancing maturing fixed-rate debt. In addition, the Company may incur prepayment penalties or defeasance costs when prepaying or defeasing debt. The unsecured credit facility and term notes were paid off on July 11, 2022, in connection with the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale. The mortgage loans payable were assumed by the Grocery-Anchored Purchasers.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its filings under the Exchange Act is reported within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In this regard, the Company has formed a Disclosure Committee currently comprising several of the Company’s executive officers as well as certain other employees with knowledge of information that may be considered in the SEC reporting process. The Disclosure Committee has responsibility for the development and assessment of the financial and non-financial information to be included in the reports filed with the SEC, and assists the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in connection with their certifications contained in the Company’s SEC filings. The Disclosure Committee meets regularly and reports to the Audit Committee on a quarterly or more frequent basis. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated its disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2022, and have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, these internal controls over financial reporting. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well-designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Legal Proceedings

As described above, on March 2, 2022, the Company entered into definitive agreements for the Transactions, which contemplate sale of the Company and all of its assets in a series of related all-cash transactions. On April 5, 2022, a purported stockholder of the Company filed a complaint against the Company and the Board in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, entitled Stein v. Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. et. al., Civil Action No. 22-cv-1944. On April 6, 2022, another purported stockholder of the Company filed a complaint against the Company and the Board in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, entitled Wang v. Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. et. al., Civil Action No. 22-cv-1975. On April 18, 2022, another purported stockholder of the Company filed a complaint against the Company and the Board in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, entitled Whitfield v. Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. et. al., Civil Action No. 22-cv-02204. Also on April 18, 2022, a purported stockholder filed a complaint against the Company and the Board in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, entitled Waterman v. Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. et. al., Civil Action No. 22-cv-01489. On April 22, 2022, a purported stockholder filed a complaint against the Company and the Board in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, entitled Thornburgh v. Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. et. al., Civil Action No. 22-cv-02304. In each action, the complaint alleges violations of Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) in connection with the proposed Transactions. The complaints generally allege that the preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed by the Company with the SEC on April 5, 2022 omits material information regarding financial projections, the financial analysis conducted by JLL Securities in connection with its fairness opinion, conflicts of interest on behalf of JLL Securities and BofA Securities, and the terms of BofA Securities’ engagement. The complaints seek, among other things, an injunction preventing the consummation of the Transactions, or, in the event the Transactions are consummated, to recover damages resulting from defendants’ alleged violations of the Exchange Act.

On May 6, 2022, plaintiffs in the Sydney action filed an amended complaint. The amended complaint alleges on behalf of a putative class of holders of the Company’s preferred stock, among other things, against the Company and the Board, claims for breach of contract with respect to the articles supplementary governing the terms of the Company’s preferred stock and breach of fiduciary duty, and, against Wheeler, tortious interference and aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty. The Sydney amended complaint seeks, among other things, (i) a declaration that holders of the Company’s preferred stock are entitled to exercise either their liquidation rights or conversion rights as set forth in the articles supplementary, (ii) compensatory damages, (iii) an injunction enjoining the distribution to the Company’s common shareholders of the proceeds of the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale, and (iv) an injunction enjoining the Merger. On May 6, 2022, the plaintiffs in Sydney filed a motion for a preliminary injunction to temporarily enjoin, until the final resolution of the litigation (i) the distribution of the gross proceeds from the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale to the common stockholders, (ii) the closing of the Merger, and (iii) the imposition of a constructive trust over the gross proceeds from both the Grocery Anchored Portfolio Sale and the Merger. Also on May, 6, 2022, a purported holder of the Company’s outstanding preferred stock filed a putative class action complaint against the Company and the Board in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, entitled Kim v. Cedar Realty Trust, Inc., et al., Civil Action No. 22-cv-01103. The complaint alleges on behalf of a putative class of holders of the Company’s preferred stock, among other things, claims for declaratory and injunctive relief with respect to the articles supplementary governing the terms of the Company’s preferred stock and breach of fiduciary duty. On May 11, 2022, the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company and Wheeler removed the Sydney action to the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, Case No. 8:22-cv-01142-GLR. On May 16, 2022, the court ordered that a hearing on the Sydney plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary injunction will be held on June 22, 2022. On June 2, 2022, the plaintiffs in Kim filed a motion for a preliminary injunction (i) to require that the Company provide preferred shareholders with a vote to approve the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale and the Merger, and (ii) requiring Cedar disclose to preferred shareholders that the Grocery-Anchored Portfolio Sale and Merger entitled the preferred stockholders to exercise their change of control conversion right. The court agreed to consolidate the Kim plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary injunction with the Sydney plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary injunction, and to hear arguments on both motions at the hearing on June 22, 2022.

The Company is not otherwise presently involved in any litigation, nor, to its knowledge, is any litigation threatened against the Company or its subsidiaries, which is either not covered by the Company’s liability insurance, or, in management’s opinion, would result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
