We are a Maryland real estate investment trust, qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, focused on single- tenant warehouse/distribution real estate investments. A majority of our properties are subject to net or similar leases, where the tenant bears all or substantially all of the costs, including cost increases, for real estate taxes, utilities, insurance and ordinary repairs. However, certain leases provide that the landlord is responsible for certain operating expenses. As of December 31, 2021, we had equity ownership interests in approximately 121 consolidated real estate properties, located in 23 states and containing an aggregate of approximately 54.8 million square feet of space, approximately 97.4% of which was leased. 3 History and Current Corporate Structure We became a Maryland REIT in December 1997. Prior to that, our predecessor was organized in the state of Delaware in October 1993 upon the rollup of two partnerships focused on the investment in diversified net-leased assets. Primarily all of our business is conducted through wholly-owned subsidiaries, but we conduct a portion of our business through an operating partnership subsidiary, Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P., which we refer to as LCIF. Historically, LCIF enabled us to acquire properties by issuing limited partner interests in LCIF, which we refer to as OP units, to sellers of property, as a form of consideration in exchange for the property. The outstanding OP units not held by LXP are generally redeemable for our common shares on a one OP unit for approximately 1.13 common shares basis, or, at our election in certain instances, cash. As of December 31, 2021, there were approximately 0.8 million OP units outstanding, other than OP units held by LXP, which were convertible into approximately 0.9 million common shares, assuming redemptions are satisfied entirely with common shares. Since December 31, 2015 through December 31, 2021, we transitioned our portfolio from approximately 16% warehouse/ distribution assets to approximately 98% warehouse/distribution assets. As of December 31, 2021, our portfolio consisted of 109 warehouse/distribution facilities and 12 other properties. On February 8, 2022, we announced that our Board of Trustees initiated a review of our strategic alternatives. Strategy General. Our business strategy is focused on growing our portfolio with attractive warehouse/distribution properties in target markets while maintaining a strong flexible balance sheet to allow us to act on opportunities as they arise. Going forward, we intend to continue acquiring warehouse/distribution properties with strong income and growth characteristics that we believe provide an optimal balance of income and capital appreciation. We provide capital to merchant builders by providing construction financing and/or a takeout for build-to-suit projects, speculative development properties and recently developed properties with vacancy. We believe our development strategy provides us with higher returns than we could obtain in the existing purchase market. We also believe our strategy mitigates against certain development risks and overhead costs because we partner with merchant builders, who are generally responsible for typical cost overruns. However, we are constantly exploring ways to be more efficient and earn higher returns. We believe our current strategy provides shareholders with a secure dividend that mitigates against unexpected costs and the cyclicality of many asset classes and investment strategies. While we believe our strategy is more defensive than most industrial REITs, we believe this makes us a “safe alternative” for investors in the industrial sector and the net lease sector. Target Markets. We focus our investment strategy on growing markets where we believe there are advantages to building a geographic concentration. The main driver of the growth in these markets is primarily to service population growth and the expansion of e-commerce and supply chains. We focus less on market size, and more on the growth prospects of a market, including the potential for a market to become a top 25 or top 50 market. Our current target markets are in the Sunbelt and the Midwest. While our investment strategy of investing in predominately single-tenant warehouse and distribution properties is not limited to specific markets, we believe that having concentration in certain markets allows us to better manage our investments and source additional investments. However, we may purchase and develop properties in other markets if favorable opportunities are identified and we may refine our investment strategy from time to time depending on market developments. Our target markets in the Sunbelt are Phoenix, Dallas-Fort Worth, Memphis, Atlanta, Savannah, Greenville-Spartanburg and Central Florida. The markets in the Southeast offer favorable business climates, proximity to one of the fastest-growing population regions in the United States and access to significant rail, port and air logistics networks. Our target markets in the Midwest are in Illinois, Indiana and Ohio, with a particular focus on the lower Midwest markets of Cincinnati, Columbus and Indianapolis. The markets in this geographic region are attractive to e-commerce tenants primarily due to less expensive occupancy costs compared to coastal markets, their central location with access to major U.S. population centers and extensive multi-modal transportation linkages. We believe the attributes of our target markets attract tenants and drive demand for space in these markets. We expect to continue to grow within each of these target markets while reviewing additional markets for expansion. 4 Building Type. We target general purpose warehouse/distribution facilities that are versatile and easily leased to alternative users and have other attractive features, including some or all of the following features: • • • • • • Clear heights generally ranging from 28 feet for smaller buildings to 40 feet for larger buildings. Wide column spacing and speed bays. Efficient loading dock ratios. Deep truck courts. Cross docking for larger facilities. Ample trailer and employee parking. The average age of the properties we acquired/completed and placed into service in 2021 was approximately 1.5 years. Tenants. We believe we have a diversified tenant base and are not dependent upon any one tenant. See “Item 2—Properties —Tenant Diversification.” Institutional Fund Management. We also provide advisory services and co-invest with high-quality institutional investors in non-consolidated entities. Two of these institutional joint ventures, for which there are no future commitments, are invested in non-industrial assets. During 2021, we recapitalized a portfolio of 22 special purpose industrial assets comprised of manufacturing and cold storage assets through the formation of an institutional joint venture, NNN MFG Cold JV L.P. ("MFG Cold JV") in which we held a 20% interest as of December 31, 2021. We expect to grow MFG Cold JV with an additional equity commitment of $250 million, of which our proportionate share is $50 million, by acquiring special purpose industrial properties outside of our core warehouse/ distribution focus. We believe investing in special purpose industrial properties allows us to mitigate the risk of investing in these types of industrial assets while earning certain fees related to the operation and growth of the joint venture. Our institutional joint ventures use non-recourse mortgage loans to finance their investments. Insurance We maintain comprehensive property, liability and pollution insurance policies with limits that we believe are appropriate for our portfolio. Our property insurance policy includes business interruption and windstorm coverage. The premiums for our property liability and pollution insurance are generally reimbursed by our tenants. Regulation We are subject to various laws, ordinances and regulations, including: REIT. We elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which we refer to as the Code, commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 1993. We intend to continue to qualify as a REIT. If we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal corporate income taxes on our net taxable income that is currently distributed to our common shareholders. We conduct certain taxable activities through our taxable REIT subsidiary, Lexington Realty Advisors, Inc. Americans with Disabilities Act. Our properties must comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, or the Americans with Disabilities Act, to the extent that such properties are “public accommodations” as defined under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Although we believe that our properties in the aggregate substantially comply with current requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act, and we have not received any notice for correction, we have not conducted a comprehensive audit or investigation of all of our properties to determine whether we are in compliance. Environmental Matters. Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations, an owner of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, on, in or under such property as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances. Competition There are numerous developers, real estate companies, financial institutions, such as banks and insurance companies, and other investors with greater financial or other resources that compete with us in seeking properties for acquisition and tenants who will lease space in these properties. 5 Operating Segments We manage our operations on an aggregated, single segment basis for purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions, and accordingly, have only one reporting and operating segment. Human Capital While our investment focus is on physical assets, human capital is critical to our success. We believe our management team is best-in-class with a track record for value creation. We maintain a supportive work atmosphere that values community and promotes professional and personal growth, work autonomy, and health and wellness. We rely on our employees and the employees of our contractors and vendors to operate our business and implement our strategy. Employees. As of December 31, 2021, we had 62 full-time employees and 1 part-time employee. Each of our employees work in one or more of the following departments: Investments, Asset Management, Accounting, Tax, Corporate, Legal and Information Technology. Other than certain of our executive officers, we do not believe that any one employee is material to our operations, but we believe that all of our employees are important for our operations. However, the compensation for employees with the title Assistant Vice President and above generally includes long-term equity awards in an effort to retain their services. On at least an annual basis, our Chief Executive Officer submits a management succession plan that provides for the ordinary course and emergency succession for our Chief Executive Officer and other key members of management, which is reviewed by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board of Trustees and, ultimately, our Board of Trustees. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, most of our employees are working remotely. We have regularly engaged with our employees through company-wide video-conference meetings and social events. Attraction & Retention of Talent. We attract talent by maintaining a good office culture and providing competitive compensation and benefits. Some of our benefit highlights are: • Medical insurance with a portion of the premiums paid by us. The minimum employee portion of premium to participate in one of the medical insurance plans for a single employee making less than $100,000 in base salary per year is $1 per month. • • • • Dental and vision benefits at no cost to our employees. A minimum of 14 paid time off, or PTO, days for first year employees, which increases to 19 PTO days in the third and fourth year of employment and 24 PTO days in the fifth year of employment. Flexible working arrangements where employees are able to work from home on specified days per workweek (during non-pandemic times). Technology allowance to offset the costs of working remotely. Due to the small size of our employee base, our turnover is generally low. In 2021, five employees voluntarily or involuntarily separated service from us and we hired 12 employees for a net change of seven employees. Demographics. We believe there are many benefits to diversity in our employee base. Of our 62 full-time employees at December 31, 2021, 61% were female and 42% were non-white. Of our 11 executive employees at December 31, 2021, 27% were female and 9% were non-white. In 2020, our employees formed a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee, or the DEIC. The mission of the DEIC is to make LXP better by actively promoting diversity, equity and inclusion officewide as well as for and among our current and future stakeholders. To that end, we are establishing programs and initiatives to motivate and empower LXP to make a positive difference, including programs focused on recruiting. Furthermore, we maintain a diversity, equity and inclusion policy. Training and Development. We maintain a variety of training programs for our employees, including those for sustainability, accounting, cybersecurity, harassment and anti-corruption/bribery. 6 Employee Engagement. We regularly engage our employees through the following methods: • During 2021, we conducted a mid-year performance review for our non-executive employees and a year-end performance review for all of our employees. The year-end performance review consisted of a 180-degree review where non-executive employees reviewed their immediate supervisor. We believe this 180-degree review provides an objective measurement of our employees' performance. Our executive employees are reviewed by our Board of Trustees. • During 2021, we engaged our employees with several surveys, including an employee satisfaction survey. Human Rights. Respect for human rights and well-being is essential. We maintain an enterprise level human rights policy. Vendors and Contractors. We outsource the following material functions: • • • • Information Technology. We use TetherView, LLC for managed IT services and BDO USA, LLC for virtual chief technology officer services, including cybersecurity. Internal Audit. We use Ernst & Young LLP for our internal audit function. Property Management. We primarily use CBRE, Cushman & Wakefield and Jones Lang LaSalle for the management of our properties where we have operating responsibilities. We also use the management affiliates of the developer/sellers of properties we acquire for the management of such properties if we have operating responsibilities and we believe it is important for such management affiliates to continue to manage the property. ESG. We use Lord Green Real Estate Strategies, Inc. to assist us with our environmental, social and governance, or ESG, initiatives. We maintain a supplier code of conduct for our vendors and contractors. Summary of 2021 Transactions and Recent Developments The following summarizes certain of our transactions during 2021, including transactions disclosed elsewhere and in our other periodic reports. Leasing Activity. During 2021, we entered into new leases and lease extensions encompassing 8.5 million square feet.

Subsequent to December 31, 2021, we acquired two warehouse/distribution properties for an aggregate cost of approximately $71.8 million. Corporate Responsibility We seek to create a sustainable ESG+R platform that enhances both our company and shareholder value. We are committed to supporting our shareholders, employees, tenants, suppliers, creditors, and communities as we execute on our ESG+R objectives and initiatives. The ESG+R objectives below are integrated throughout our investment process and contribute to our ongoing long-term success on behalf of our shareholders. Due to the properties in our portfolio primarily being subject to net leases where tenants are responsible for maintaining the buildings and are in control of their energy usage and environmental sustainability practices, our ability to implement ESG+R initiatives throughout our portfolio may be limited. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board of Trustees oversees our ESG+R strategy and initiatives. Environmental, Sustainability and Climate Change Developing strategies that reduce our environmental impact and operational costs is a critical component of our ESG+R program. Actions: • • • • Track and monitor all landlord-paid utilities and track tenant utility data wherever possible. Strategically implement green building certifications to highlight sustainability initiatives where feasible. Annually review and evaluate sustainability opportunities to increase efficiency and reduce costs. Evaluate the opportunity to increase renewable energy (e.g. solar) across the portfolio. Performance: • • In process to collect, track and monitor landlord paid energy, water, waste and recycling across the portfolio, and working to expand tenant-paid utility coverage. Evaluated the portfolio for green building certifications and energy ratings and obtained certifications for 20 properties in our portfolio as of December 31, 2021. In 2021, six properties received BREEAM USA In Use certifications. • Maintained sustainability focused resources for tenants and property managers including a Tenant Fit-Out Guide and Industrial Tenant Sustainability Guide. • • • • Continued to evaluate sustainability and efficiency initiatives across the portfolio to reduce energy consumption and drive down greenhouse gas emissions. Incorporated ESG into metrics for executive cash incentive awards. Engaged a third-party to perform climate change analytics for the implementation of our resiliency strategy. Published (i) ESG Objectives, including GHG emissions, energy consumption, water consumption, and diversion rate targets in accordance with the Paris Agreement, and (ii) a stakeholder engagement policy. Social We believe that actively engaging with stakeholders is critical to our business and ESG+R efforts, providing valuable insight to inform strategy, attract and retain top talent, and strengthen tenant relationships. 8 Actions: • • • • • • Routinely engage with our tenants to understand leasing and operational needs at our assets and provide tools and resources to promote sustainable tenant operations. Coordinate with tenants and property managers on health and well-being focused initiatives. Assess our tenant satisfaction and feedback through periodic tenant surveys. Provide our employees with periodic trainings, industry updates and access to tools and resources related to ESG+R. Provide our employees with health and well-being efforts focused on physical, emotional and financial health. Support the communities in which we live and work through philanthropic events and support local charities through volunteer events. Performance: • • • • • Collected and assessed feedback from our tenants through a survey conducted by a third party. Engaged with our employees through regular surveys, including an employee satisfaction survey. Participated in clothing and food drives, and implemented a paid-time off policy for employees to volunteer in their local communities.

Provide an employee assistance program with 24/7 unlimited access to referrals and resources for all work-life needs, including access to face-to-face and telephonic counseling sessions, legal and financial referrals and consultations. Governance Transparency to our stakeholders is essential. We pride ourselves on providing our stakeholders with regular reports and detailed disclosures on our operational and financial health, and ESG efforts. Actions: • • Strive to implement best governance practices, mindful of the concerns of our shareholders. Increase our ESG+R transparency and disclosure through reporting to frameworks, such as GRESB (the global ESG+R benchmark for real assets), and providing regular ESG updates to shareholders and other stakeholders. • Monitor compliance with applicable benchmarking and disclosure legislation, including utility data reporting, audit and retro-commissioning requirements, and GHG emission laws. • Evaluate various industry groups that promote our alignment with recognized industry and ESG+R frameworks. Performance: • Maintain a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which includes a whistleblower policy, and provide annual training. • • • • • • Perform enterprise risk assessments and management succession planning.

Published our first corporate responsibility report in 2021 aligned with SASB Real Estate Standards. Developed a Stakeholder Engagement Policy to disclose our process when working with our key stakeholders including investors, property management teams, and tenants. Signed on to support the UN Women's Empowerment Principles and the CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion. Conducted annual ESG+R training for asset managers. Resilience We believe that our resilience to climate change-related physical and transition risks is critical to our long-term success. 9 Actions: • • • • Align our resilience program with the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) framework. Evaluate physical and transition climate-related risks as part of our acquisition due diligence process. Utilize climate analytics metrics to (1) identify physical risk exposure across the portfolio, (2) identify high risk assets and (3) expect to implement mitigation measures and emergency preparedness plans.

NYSE CEO Certification. Our Chief Executive Officer made an unqualified certification to the NYSE with respect to our compliance with the NYSE corporate governance listing standards in 2021. 11 Item 1A. Risk Factors Set forth below are material factors that may adversely affect our business and operations. Risks Related to Our Business We are subject to risks related to defaults under, or termination or expiration of, our leases. We focus our acquisition activities on industrial real estate properties that are generally net leased to single tenants, and certain of our tenants and/or their guarantors constitute a significant percentage of our rental revenues. Therefore, the financial failure of, or other default by, a single tenant under its lease is likely to cause a significant or complete reduction in the operating cash flow generated by the property leased to that tenant and might decrease the value of that property and result in a non-cash impairment charge. If the tenant represents a significant portion of our rental revenues, the impact on our financial position may be material. Further, in any such event, our property owner subsidiary will be responsible for 100% of the operating costs following a vacancy at a single-tenant building. Under current bankruptcy law, a tenant can generally assume or reject a lease within a certain number of days of filing its bankruptcy petition. If a tenant rejects the lease, a landlord's damages, subject to availability of funds from the bankruptcy estate, are generally limited to the greater of (1) one year's rent and (2) the rent for 15% of the remaining term of the lease, not to exceed three years. Our property owner subsidiaries may not be able to retain tenants in any of our properties upon the expiration of leases. Upon the expiration or other termination of current leases, our property owner subsidiaries may not be able to re-let all or a portion of the vacancy, or the terms of re-letting (including the cost of concessions to tenants and leasing commissions) may be less favorable than current lease terms or market rates. If one of our property owner subsidiaries is unable to promptly re-let all or a substantial portion of the vacancy, or if the rental rates a property owner subsidiary receives upon re-letting are significantly lower than current rates, our earnings and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to make expected distributions to our shareholders may be adversely affected due to the resulting reduction in rent receipts and increase in property operating costs. Certain of our leases may permit tenants to terminate the leases to which they are a party. Certain of our leases contain tenant termination options or economic discontinuance options that permit the tenants to terminate their leases. While these options generally require a payment by the tenants, in most cases, the payments will be less than the total remaining expected rental revenue. The termination of a lease by a tenant may impair the value of the property. In addition, we will be responsible for 100% of the operating costs following the termination by any such tenant and subsequent vacating of the property, and we will incur re-leasing costs. Our ability to fully control the maintenance of our net-leased properties may be limited. The tenants of our net-leased properties are responsible for maintenance and other day-to-day management of the properties. If a property is not adequately maintained in accordance with the terms of the applicable lease, we may incur expenses for deferred maintenance or other liabilities once the property is no longer leased. We generally visit our properties on an annual basis, but these visits are not comprehensive inspections and deferred maintenance items may go unnoticed. While our leases generally provide for recourse against the tenant in these instances, a bankrupt or financially-troubled tenant may be more likely to defer maintenance, and it may be more difficult to enforce remedies against such a tenant. You should not rely on the credit ratings of our tenants. Some of our tenants, guarantors and/or their parent or sponsor entities are rated by certain rating agencies. In certain instances, we may disclose the credit ratings of our tenants or their parent or sponsor entities even though those parent or sponsor entities are not liable for the obligations of the tenant or guarantor under the lease. Any such credit ratings are subject to ongoing evaluation by these credit rating agencies and we cannot assure you that any such ratings will not be changed or withdrawn by these rating agencies in the future if, in their judgment, circumstances warrant. If these rating agencies assign a lower-than- expected rating or reduce or withdraw, or indicate that they may reduce or withdraw, the credit rating of a tenant, guarantor or its parent entity, the value of our investment in any properties leased by such tenant could significantly decline. 12 Our assets may be subject to impairment charges. We periodically evaluate our real estate investments and other assets for impairment indicators. The judgment regarding the existence of impairment indicators is based on GAAP, which includes a variety of factors such as market conditions, the status of significant leases, the financial condition of major tenants and other factors that could affect the cash flow or value of an investment. Based on this evaluation, we may from time to time take non-cash impairment charges. These impairments could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. If we take an impairment charge on a property subject to a non-recourse secured mortgage and reduce the book value of such property below the balance of the mortgage on our balance sheet, upon foreclosure or other disposition, we may be required to recognize a gain on debt satisfaction. Our real estate development activities are subject to additional risks. Development activities generally require various government and other approvals, which we may not receive. We rely on third-party construction managers and/or engineers to monitor certain construction activities. If we engage or partner with a developer, we rely on the developer to monitor construction activities and our interests may not be aligned. In addition, development activities, including speculative development and redevelopment and renovation of vacant properties, are subject to risks including, but not limited to: • • • • • • • • unsuccessful development opportunities could cause us to incur direct expenses; construction costs of a project may exceed original estimates, possibly making the project less profitable than originally estimated or unprofitable; time required to complete the construction of a project or to lease up the completed project may be greater than originally anticipated, thereby adversely affecting our cash flow and liquidity; legal action to compel performance of contractors, developers or partners may cause delays and our costs may not be reimbursed; we may not be able to find tenants to lease the space built on a speculative basis or in a redeveloped or renovated building, which will impact our cash flow and ability to finance or sell such properties; there may be gaps in warranty obligations of our developers and contractors and the obligations to a tenant; occupancy rates and rents of a completed project may not be sufficient to make the project profitable; and favorable financing sources to fund development activities may not be available. In addition, our development activities are subject to risks related to supply-chain disruptions and inflation, which increase costs and may delay completion. A tenant’s bankruptcy proceeding may result in the re-characterization of related sale-leaseback transactions or in the restructuring of the tenant's payment obligations to us, either of which could adversely affect our financial condition. We have entered and may continue to enter into sale-leaseback transactions, whereby we purchase a property and then lease the same property back to the person from whom we purchased it. In the event of the bankruptcy of a tenant, a transaction structured as a sale-leaseback may be re-characterized as either a financing or a joint venture. As a result of the foregoing, the re- characterization of a sale-leaseback transaction could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flow and the amount available for distributions to our shareholders. If the sale-leaseback were re-characterized as a financing, we might not be considered the owner of the property, and as a result, would have the status of a creditor in relation to the tenant. In that event, we would no longer have the right to sell or encumber our ownership interest in the property. Instead, we would have a claim against the tenant for the amounts owed under the lease, with the claim arguably secured by the property. The tenant/debtor might have the ability to propose a plan restructuring the term, interest rate and amortization schedule of its outstanding balance. If confirmed by the bankruptcy court, we could be bound by the new terms and prevented from foreclosing our lien on the property. If the sale-leaseback were re-characterized as a joint venture, our tenant and we could be treated as co-venturers with regard to the property. As a result, we could be held liable, under some circumstances, for debts incurred by the tenant relating to the property. 13 A significant portion of our leases are long-term and do not have fair market rental rate adjustments, which could negatively impact our income and reduce the amount of funds available to make distributions to shareholders. A significant portion of our rental income comes from long-term net leases, which generally provide the tenant greater discretion in using the leased property than ordinary property leases, such as the right to freely sublease the property, to make alterations in the leased premises and to terminate the lease prior to its expiration under specified circumstances. Furthermore, net leases typically have longer lease terms and, thus, there is an increased risk that contractual rental increases in future years will fail to result in fair market rental rates during those years. If we do not accurately judge the potential for increases in market rental rates when negotiating these long-term leases or if we are unable to obtain any increases in rental rates over the terms of our leases, significant increases in future property operating costs, to the extent not covered under the net leases, could result in us receiving less than fair value from these leases. As a result, our income and distributions to our shareholders could be lower than they would otherwise be if we did not engage in long-term net leases. In addition, increases in interest rates may also negatively impact the value of our properties that are subject to long-term leases. While a significant number of our net leases provide for annual escalations in the rental rate, the increase in interest rates may outpace the annual escalations. Interests in loans receivable are subject to delinquency, foreclosure and loss. While loan receivables are not a primary focus, we make loans to purchasers of our properties and developers. Our interests in loans receivable are generally non-recourse and secured by real estate properties owned by borrowers that were unable to obtain similar financing from a commercial bank. These loans are subject to many risks including delinquency. The ability of a borrower to repay a loan secured by a real estate property is typically and primarily dependent upon the successful operation of such property rather than upon the existence of independent income or assets of the borrower. If a borrower were to default on a loan, it is possible that we would not recover the full value of the loan as the collateral may be non-performing. Our inability to carry out our growth strategy could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Our growth strategy is based on the acquisition and development of additional industrial properties and related assets. In the context of our business plan, “development” generally means an expansion or renovation of an existing property or the financing and/or acquisition of a newly constructed build-to-suit or speculative property and/or the development of a land parcel. For newly constructed properties, we may (1) provide a developer with either a combination of financing for the construction of a property or a commitment to acquire a property upon completion of construction of a property and commencement of rent from the tenant, (2) acquire a property subject to a lease and engage a developer to complete construction of a property as required by the lease, or (3) partner with a developer to acquire and develop or acquire on our own and engage a developer to develop land and pursue development opportunities. Our plan to grow through the acquisition and development of new properties could be adversely affected by trends in the real estate and financing businesses. The consummation of any future acquisitions will be subject to satisfactory completion of an extensive valuation analysis and due diligence review and to the negotiation of definitive documentation. Our ability to implement our strategy may be impeded because we may have difficulty finding new properties and investments at attractive prices that meet our investment criteria, negotiating with new or existing tenants or securing acceptable financing. If we are unable to carry out our strategy, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. Acquisitions of additional properties entail the risk that investments will fail to perform in accordance with expectations, including operating and leasing expectations. Some of our acquisitions and developments may be financed using the proceeds of periodic equity or debt offerings, lines of credit or other forms of secured or unsecured financing that may result in a risk that permanent financing for newly acquired projects might not be available or would be available only on disadvantageous terms. If permanent debt or equity financing is not available on acceptable terms to refinance acquisitions undertaken without permanent financing, further acquisitions may be curtailed, or cash available to satisfy our debt service obligations and distributions to shareholders may be adversely affected. Our investment and disposition activity may lead to dilution. Our strategy is to increase our investment in general purpose, well located warehouse/distribution assets and reduce our exposure to all other asset types. We believe this strategy will lessen capital expenditures over time and mitigate revenue reductions on renewals and re-tenanting. To implement this strategy, we have been selling non-industrial assets and recapitalizing special purpose industrial assets, which generally have higher capitalization rates, and buying warehouse and distribution properties, which, in the current competitive market, generally have lower capitalization rates. This strategy impacts growth in the short-term period. There can be no assurance that the implementation of our strategy will lead to improved results or that we will be able to execute our strategy as contemplated or on terms acceptable to us. 14 Investment activities may not produce expected results and may be affected by outside factors. The demand for industrial space in the United States is generally related to the level of economic output and consumer demand. Accordingly, reduced economic output and/or consumer demand may lead to lower occupancy rates for our properties. The concentration of our investments, among other factors, in industrial assets may expose us to the risk of economic downturns specific to industrial assets to a greater extent than if our investments were diversified. Investment in commercial properties entail certain risks, such as (1) underwriting assumptions, including occupancy, rental rates and expenses, may differ from estimates, (2) the properties may become subject to environmental liabilities that we were unaware of at the time we acquired the property despite any environmental testing, (3) we may have difficulty obtaining financing on acceptable terms or paying the operating expenses and debt service associated with acquired properties prior to sufficient occupancy and (4) projected exit strategies may not come to fruition due to a variety of factors such as market conditions and/or tenant credit conditions at the time of dispositions. We may not be successful in identifying suitable real estate properties or other assets that meet our investment criteria. We may also fail to complete investments on satisfactory terms. Failure to identify or complete investments could slow our growth, which could, in turn, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Properties where we have operating responsibilities and multi-tenant properties expose us to additional risks. Properties where we have operating responsibilities involve risks not typically encountered in real estate properties which are fully operated by a single tenant. The ownership of properties which are not fully operated by a single tenant expose us to the risk of potential "CAM slippage," which may occur when the actual cost of taxes, insurance and maintenance at the property exceeds the operating expenses paid by tenants and/or the amounts budgeted. Depending on the tenant’s leverage in the lease negotiation, the tenant may be successful in negotiating for caps on certain operating expenses and we are responsible for any amounts in excess of any cap. Multi-tenant properties are also subject to the risk that a sufficient number of suitable tenants may not be found to enable the property to operate profitably and provide a return to us. Moreover, tenant turnover and fluctuation in occupancy rates, could affect our operating results. This risk may be compounded by the failure of existing tenants to satisfy their obligations due to various factors. These risks, in turn, could cause a material adverse impact to our results of operations and business. Uninsured losses or a loss in excess of insured limits could adversely affect our financial condition. We carry comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage and rent loss insurance on certain of the properties in which we have an interest, with policy specifications and insured limits that we believe are customary for similar properties. However, with respect to those properties where the leases do not provide for abatement of rent under any circumstances, we generally do not maintain rent loss insurance. In addition, certain of our leases require the tenant to maintain all insurance on the property, and the failure of the tenant to maintain the proper insurance could adversely impact our investment in a property in the event of a loss. Furthermore, there are certain types of losses, such as losses resulting from wars, terrorism or certain acts of God, that generally are not insured because they are either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, we could lose capital invested in a property as well as the anticipated future revenues from a property, while remaining obligated for any mortgage indebtedness or other financial obligations related to the property. Any loss of these types could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Cybersecurity risks and cyber incidents may adversely affect our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information, misappropriation of assets and/or damage to our business relationships, all of which could negatively impact our financial results. Cyber incidents may result in disrupted operations, misstated or unreliable financial data, liability for stolen assets or information, increased cybersecurity protection and insurance costs, litigation and damage to our tenant, investor and/or vendor relationships. As our reliance on technology has increased, so have the risks posed to our information systems, both internal and those we have outsourced. Any processes, procedures and internal controls that we implement, as well as our increased awareness of the nature and extent of a risk of a cyber incident, do not guarantee that our financial results, operations, business relationships or confidential information will not be negatively impacted by such an incident. 15 Insider or employee cyber and security threats are increasingly a concern for all companies, including ours. In addition, social engineering and phishing are a particular concern for companies with employees. As a landlord, we are also susceptible to cyber attacks on our tenants and their payment systems. We are continuously working to install new, and to upgrade our existing, network and information technology systems and to provide employee awareness training around phishing, malware and other cyber risks to ensure that we are protected, to the greatest extent possible, against cyber risks and security breaches. However, such upgrades, new technology and training may not be sufficient to protect us from all risks. As a smaller company, we use third-party vendors to assist us with our network and information technology requirements. While we carefully select these third-party vendors, we cannot control their actions. Any problems caused by these third parties, including those resulting from breakdowns or other disruptions in communication services provided by a vendor, failure of a vendor to handle current or higher volumes, cyber attacks and security breaches at a vendor could adversely affect our operations. Competition may adversely affect our ability to purchase properties. There are numerous other companies and individuals with greater financial and other resources than we have that compete with us in seeking investments and tenants. This competition may result in a higher cost for properties and lower returns and impact our ability to grow. We may have limited control over our joint venture investments. Our joint venture investments involve risks not otherwise present for investments made solely by us, including the possibility that our partner might, at any time, become bankrupt, have different interests or goals than we do, or take action contrary to our expectations, its previous instructions or our instructions, requests, policies or objectives, including our policy with respect to maintaining our qualification as a REIT. Other risks of joint venture investments include impasses on decisions, such as a sale, because neither we nor our partner may have full control over the joint venture. Also, there is no limitation under our organizational documents as to the amount of funds that may be invested in joint ventures. Our ability to change our portfolio is limited because real estate investments are illiquid. Investments in real estate are relatively illiquid and, therefore, our ability to change our portfolio promptly in response to changed conditions is limited. Our Board of Trustees may establish investment criteria or limitations as it deems appropriate, but currently does not limit the number or type of properties in which we may seek to invest or on the concentration of investments in any one geographic region. Our Board of Trustees may change our investment policy without shareholders' approval. Subject to our fundamental investment policy to maintain our qualification as a REIT, our Board of Trustees will determine our investment and financing policies, growth strategy and our debt, capitalization, distribution, acquisition, disposition and operating policies. Our Board of Trustees may revise or amend these strategies and policies at any time without a vote by shareholders. Changes made by our Board of Trustees may not serve the interests of debt or equity security holders and could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations, including our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations, distribute cash to shareholders and qualify as a REIT. Accordingly, shareholders' control over changes in our strategies and policies is limited to the election of trustees. We may incur significant costs in connection with our Board of Trustees' review of strategic alternatives and related matters. Such costs include, but are not limited to, legal and other professional advisory fees and expenses. 16 Industry and Economic Risks The current outbreak of COVID-19, or the future outbreak of any other highly infectious or contagious diseases, could adversely impact or cause disruption to our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Further, the spread of the COVID-19 outbreak has caused severe disruptions in the U.S. and global economy, may further disrupt financial markets and could potentially create widespread business continuity issues. In recent years the outbreaks of a number of diseases, including Avian Bird Flu, H1N1, and various other "super bugs," have increased the risk of a pandemic. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19, a novel strain of the coronavirus, a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020 the United States declared a national emergency with respect to COVID-19. Although vaccines have been developed and are widely distributed in the United States, newer and more contagious variants of COVID-19 have further amplified the impact of the pandemic while significant components of the United States population are resistant to vaccination efforts. The COVID-19 pandemic has also coincided with labor shortages and increased staffing costs for many companies operating in the United States. COVID-19 related disruptions to the international supply chain, including transportation and distribution delays, longer lead times for construction materials and increased construction costs have resulted in shortages of certain goods and inflationary conditions. These developments, as well as other ramifications of the COVID-19 pandemic may result in prolonged inflationary conditions that could have a detrimental impact on our tenant base, our ability to lease vacant space and our ability to grow through development and acquisition. Future adverse impacts to the economy caused by COVID-19 may also result in market volatility and large swings in global stock prices that may negatively impact our share price. These potential risks could also negatively impact our future ability to access capital, which would negatively impact our liquidity and our ability to execute our strategic plans. The impacts of the outbreak could, among other things, negatively affect (i) the operation of our properties, (ii) the effectiveness of our strategic decision making, (iii) the operation of an effective cyber security function, (iv) the operation of our key information systems, (v) our ability to make timely filings with the SEC and (vi) our ability to maintain an effective control environment. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19. Nevertheless, the COVID-19 outbreak has had, and future pandemics could have, a significant adverse impact on economic and market conditions of economies around the world, including the United States, the results of which have and would present material uncertainty and risk with respect to our performance, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Potential disruptions in the financial markets could affect our ability to obtain debt financing on reasonable terms and have other adverse effects on us. The United States credit markets have periodically experienced significant dislocations and liquidity disruptions, which have caused the spreads on prospective debt financings to widen considerably. These circumstances may materially impact liquidity in the debt markets, making financing terms for borrowers less attractive, and in certain cases may result in the unavailability of certain types of debt financing. Uncertainty in the credit markets may negatively impact our ability to access additional debt financing on reasonable terms, which may negatively affect our ability to make acquisitions. A prolonged downturn in the credit markets may cause us to seek alternative sources of potentially less attractive financing and may require us to adjust our business plan accordingly. In addition, these factors may make it more difficult for us to sell properties or may adversely affect the price we receive for properties that we do sell, as prospective buyers may experience increased costs of capital or difficulties in obtaining capital. These events in the credit markets may have an adverse effect on other financial markets in the United States, which may make it more difficult or costly for us to raise capital through the issuance of our common shares or preferred shares. These disruptions in the financial markets may have other adverse effects on us, our tenants or the economy in general. Natural disasters and the effects of climate change could have a concentrated impact on the areas where we operate and could adversely impact our results. We invest in properties on a nationwide basis. Natural disasters, including earthquakes, storms, tornados, floods and hurricanes, could impact our properties in these and other areas in which we operate. Potentially adverse consequences of global warming, including rising sea levels, could similarly have an impact on our properties. Over time, these conditions could result in declining demand for space in our buildings or the inability of us to operate the buildings at all. Climate change may also have indirect effects on our business by increasing the cost of (or making unavailable) property insurance on terms we find acceptable, increasing the cost of energy at our properties and requiring us to expend funds as we seek to repair and protect our properties against such risks. Incurring these losses, costs or business interruptions may adversely affect our operating and financial results. 17 Risks Related to our Indebtedness We have a substantial amount of indebtedness. Our substantial indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to fulfill our obligations under the documents governing our unsecured indebtedness and otherwise adversely impact our business and growth prospects. We have a substantial amount of debt. We may be more leveraged than certain of our competitors. We have incurred, and may continue to incur, direct and indirect indebtedness in furtherance of our activities. Neither our declaration of trust nor any policy statement formerly adopted by our Board of Trustees limits the total amount of indebtedness that we may incur, and accordingly, we could become even more highly leveraged. As of December 31, 2021, our total consolidated indebtedness was approximately $1.5 billion and we had approximately $600.0 million available for borrowing under our principal credit agreement, subject to covenant compliance. Our substantial indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and have important consequences to us and our debt and equity security holders. For example, it could: • make it more difficult for us to satisfy our indebtedness and debt service obligations and adversely affect our ability to pay distributions; • • • • • • increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions; require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to the payment of interest on and principal of our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of cash to fund working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes; limit our ability to borrow money or sell stock to fund our development projects, working capital, capital expenditures, general corporate purposes or acquisitions; restrict us from making strategic acquisitions or exploiting business opportunities; place us at a disadvantage compared to competitors that have less debt; and limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate. In addition, the agreements that govern our current indebtedness contain, and the agreements that may govern any future indebtedness that we may incur may contain, financial and other restrictive covenants, which may limit our ability to engage in activities that may be in our long-term best interests. Our failure to comply with those covenants could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of our debt. Market interest rates could have an adverse effect on our borrowing costs, profitability and the value of our fixed-rate debt securities. We have exposure to market risks relating to increases in interest rates due to our variable-rate debt. An increase in interest rates may increase our costs of borrowing on existing variable-rate indebtedness, leading to a reduction in our earnings. As of December 31, 2021, we have $129.1 million of trust preferred securities that matures in April 2037 that is LIBOR indexed. In addition, we have a $300.0 million unsecured term loan which matures January 2025 that is LIBOR indexed and is subject to interest rate swap agreements through January 2025. Also, our unsecured revolving credit facility is subject to a variable interest rate. The level of our variable-rate indebtedness, along with the interest rate associated with such variable-rate indebtedness, may change in the future and materially affect our interest costs and earnings. In addition, our interest costs on our fixed-rate indebtedness may increase if we are required to refinance our fixed-rate indebtedness upon maturity at higher interest rates. Also, fixed-rate debt securities generally decline in value as market rates rise because the premium, if any, over market interest rates will decline. The LIBOR index rate may not be available in the future. In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. On March 5, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority further announced that it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of one, three and six month LIBOR after June 30, 2023. It is unclear whether new methods of calculating such LIBOR periods will be established such that they continue to exist after June 30, 2023. It is not possible to predict the effect of these changes, other reforms or the establishment of alternative reference rates in the United States or elsewhere. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee (or ARRC) has 18 proposed that the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (or SOFR) is the rate that represents best practice as the alternative to USD- LIBOR for use in derivatives and other financial contracts that are currently indexed to USD-LIBOR. ARRC has proposed a paced market transition plan to SOFR from USD-LIBOR and organizations are currently working on industry wide and company specific transition plans as it relates to derivatives and cash markets exposed to USD-LIBOR. Our trust preferred securities do not provide for a clear alternative to USD-LIBOR. We have engaged and may engage in hedging transactions that may limit gains or result in losses. We have used derivatives to hedge certain of our variable-rate liabilities. As of December 31, 2021, we had aggregate interest rate swap agreements on $300.0 million of borrowings. The counterparties of these arrangements are major financial institutions; however, we are exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance or default by the counterparties. Further, additional risks, including losses on a hedge position, may reduce the return on our investments. Such losses may exceed the amount invested in such instruments. We may also have to pay certain costs, such as transaction fees or breakage costs, related to hedging transactions. Covenants in certain of the agreements governing our debt could adversely affect our financial condition, investment activities and/or operating activities. Our unsecured revolving credit facility, unsecured term loan and indentures governing our senior notes contain certain cross- default and cross-acceleration provisions as well as customary restrictions, requirements and other limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness and consummate mergers, consolidations or sales of all or substantially all of our assets. Our ability to borrow under our unsecured revolving credit facility is also subject to compliance with certain other covenants. In addition, failure to comply with our covenants could cause a default under the applicable debt instrument and we may then be required to repay such debt with capital from other sources. Under those circumstances, other sources of capital may not be available to us or be available only on unattractive terms. Additionally, our ability to satisfy current or prospective lenders' insurance requirements may be adversely affected if lenders generally insist upon greater insurance coverage than is available to us in the marketplace or on commercially reasonable terms. We rely on debt financing, including borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility, unsecured term loan, debt securities, and debt secured by individual properties, for working capital, including to finance our investment activities. If we are unable to obtain financing from these or other sources, or to refinance existing indebtedness upon maturity, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. The documents governing our non-recourse indebtedness contain restrictions on the operations of our property owner subsidiaries and their properties. Certain activities, like leasing and alterations, may be subject to the consent of the applicable lender. In addition, certain lenders engage third-party loan servicers that may not be as responsive as we would be or as the leasing market requires. We face risks associated with refinancings. Some of the properties in which we have an interest are subject to a mortgage or other secured notes with balloon payments due at maturity. In addition, our corporate level borrowings require interest only payments with all principal due at maturity. Our ability to make the scheduled balloon payments on any corporate recourse note will depend on our access to the capital markets, including our ability to refinance the maturing note. Our ability to make the scheduled balloon payment on any non- recourse mortgage note will depend upon (1) in the event we determine to contribute capital, our cash balances and the amount available under our unsecured credit facility, and (2) the property owner subsidiary's ability either to refinance the related mortgage debt or to sell the related property. If the property owner subsidiary is unable to refinance or sell the related property, the property may be conveyed to the lender through foreclosure or other means or the property owner subsidiary may declare bankruptcy. We face risks associated with returning properties to lenders. Some of the properties in which we have an interest are subject to non-recourse mortgages, which generally provide that a lender's only recourse upon an event of default is to foreclose on the property. In the event these properties are conveyed via foreclosure to the lenders thereof, we would lose all of our interest in these properties. The loss of a significant number of properties to foreclosure or through bankruptcy of a property owner subsidiary could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, relationships with lenders and ability to obtain additional financing in the future. 19 In addition, a lender may attempt to trigger a carve out to the non-recourse nature of a mortgage loan. To the extent a lender is successful, the ability of our property owner subsidiary to return the property to the lender may be inhibited and/or we may be liable for all or a portion of such loan. Certain of our indebtedness is subject to cross-default, cross-acceleration and cross-collateral provisions. Substantially all of our corporate level borrowings and, in the future, certain of our secured indebtedness may, contain cross- default and/or cross-acceleration provisions, which may be triggered if we default on certain indebtedness in excess of certain thresholds. In the event of such a default, the resulting cross defaults and/or cross-accelerations may adversely impact our financial condition. Two of our non-consolidated joint ventures have portfolio loans where the loans are cross-collateral with all of the assets in the portfolio. We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our debt service obligations. Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness depends on our ability to generate cash in the future. To a certain extent, our cash flow is subject to general economic, industry, financial, competitive, operating, legislative, regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future sources of cash will be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay amounts due on our indebtedness. Additionally, if we incur additional indebtedness in connection with future acquisitions or development projects or for any other purpose, our debt service obligations could increase. The effective subordination of our unsecured indebtedness and any related guaranty may reduce amounts available for payment on our unsecured indebtedness and any related guaranty. The holders of our secured debt may foreclose on the assets securing such debt, reducing the cash flow from the foreclosed property available for payment of unsecured debt and any related guaranty. The holders of any of our secured debt also would have priority with respect to the secured collateral over unsecured creditors in the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or similar proceeding. None of our subsidiaries are guarantors of our unsecured debt; therefore assets of our subsidiaries may not be available to make payments on our unsecured indebtedness. We are the sole borrower of our unsecured indebtedness and none of our subsidiaries were guarantors of our unsecured indebtedness. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of our subsidiaries, holders of subsidiary debt, including trade creditors, will generally be entitled to payment of their claims from the assets of our subsidiaries before any assets are made available for distribution to us. All of our assets are held through our subsidiaries. Consequently, our cash flow and our ability to meet our debt service obligations depend in large part upon the cash flow of our subsidiaries and the payment of funds by our subsidiaries to us in the form of distributions or otherwise. Risks Related to Investment in our Equity We may change the dividend policy for our common shares in the future. The decision to declare and pay dividends on our common shares in the future, as well as the timing, amount and composition of any such future dividends, will be at the sole discretion of our Board of Trustees in light of conditions then existing, including our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, debt maturities, the availability of debt and equity capital, applicable REIT and legal restrictions and the general overall economic conditions and other factors. The actual dividend payable will be determined by our Board of Trustees based upon the circumstances at the time of declaration and the actual dividend payable may vary from such expected amount. Any change in our dividend policy could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common shares. Securities eligible for future sale may have adverse effects on our share price. We have an unallocated universal shelf registration statement and we also maintain an At-the-Market offering program and a direct share purchase plan, pursuant to which we may issue additional common shares. There is no restriction on our issuing additional common or preferred shares, including any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, common or preferred shares or any substantially similar securities. Pursuant to our At-the-Market offering, we 20 may enter into forward sale agreements. Settlement provisions contained in any forward sale agreement could result in substantial dilution to our earnings per share or result in substantial cash payment obligations. In addition, in the case of our bankruptcy or insolvency, any forward sale agreement will automatically terminate, and we would not receive the expected proceeds from the sale of our common shares under such agreement. We disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures in documents filed and/or furnished with the SEC; however, the non- GAAP financial measures we disclose are not equivalent to applicable comparable GAAP measures, and you should consider GAAP measures to be more relevant to our operating performance. We use and disclose to investors FFO, Adjusted Company FFO, NOI and other non-GAAP financial measures. FFO, Adjusted Company FFO, NOI and the other non-GAAP financial measures are not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined in accordance with GAAP, and investors should consider GAAP measures to be more relevant to evaluating our operating performance. FFO, Adjusted Company FFO and NOI, and GAAP net income (loss) differ because FFO, Adjusted Company FFO and NOI exclude many items that are factored into GAAP net income or loss. Because of the differences between FFO, Adjusted Company FFO, NOI and GAAP net income or loss, FFO, Adjusted Company FFO and NOI may not be accurate indicators of our operating performance, especially during periods in which we are acquiring and selling properties. In addition, FFO, Adjusted Company FFO and NOI are not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and investors should not consider FFO, Adjusted Company FFO or NOI as alternatives to cash flows from operations, as an indication of our liquidity or as indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions to our shareholders. Neither the SEC nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments that we use to calculate FFO, Adjusted Company FFO and NOI. Also, because not all companies calculate FFO, Adjusted Company FFO and NOI the same way, comparisons with other companies’ measures with similar titles may not be meaningful. There are certain limitations on a third party's ability to acquire us or effectuate a change in our control. Severance payments under our executive severance policy. Substantial termination payments may be required to be paid under our executive severance policy applicable to and related agreements with our executives upon the termination of an executive. If those executive officers are terminated without cause, as defined, or resign for good reason, as defined, those executive officers may be entitled to severance benefits based on their current annual base salaries and trailing average of recent annual cash bonuses as defined in our executive severance policy and related agreements and the acceleration of certain non- vested equity awards. Accordingly, these payments may discourage a third party from acquiring us. Our ability to issue additional shares. Our declaration of trust authorizes 1,000,000,000 shares of beneficial interest (par value $0.0001 per share) consisting of 400,000,000 common shares, 100,000,000 preferred shares and 500,000,000 shares of beneficial interest classified as excess stock, or excess shares. Our Board of Trustees is authorized to cause us to issue these shares without shareholder approval. Our Board of Trustees may establish the preferences and rights of any such class or series of additional shares, which could have the effect of delaying or preventing someone from taking control of us, even if a change in control were in shareholders' best interests. At December 31, 2021, in addition to common shares, we had outstanding 1,935,400 Series C Preferred Shares. Our Series C Preferred Shares include provisions, such as increases in dividend rates or adjustments to conversion rates, which may deter a change of control. The establishment and issuance of shares of our existing series of preferred shares or a future class or series of shares could make a change of control of us more difficult. Maryland Takeover Statutes. Certain provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law, including the Maryland Business Combination Act, the Maryland Control Share Act, and certain elective provisions of Maryland law under Subtitle 8 of the Maryland General Corporation Law, each as further described under the heading “Restrictions on Transfers of Capital Stock and Anti-Takeover Provisions – Maryland Law” in Exhibit 4.10 of this Annual Report, are applicable to Maryland REITs, such as the Company. We are subject to the Maryland Business Combination Act, and while our by-laws contain a provision exempting from the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act any and all acquisitions by any person of our shares, we cannot assure you that this provision will not be amended or eliminated at any time in the future. We have also not elected to be governed by any of the specific provisions of Subtitle 8, however, through provisions of our declaration of trust and/or by-laws, as applicable, unrelated to Subtitle 8, we provide for an 80% shareholder vote to remove trustees and then only for cause, and that the number of trustees may be determined by a resolution of our Board of Trustees, subject to a minimum number. In addition, we can elect to be governed by any or all of the provisions of Subtitle 8 of the Maryland General Corporation Law at any time in the future. These statutes could have the effect of discouraging offers to acquire us and of increasing the difficulty of consummating any such offers, even if such acquisition would be in shareholders' best interests. 21 Limits on ownership of our capital shares may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing someone from taking control of us. For us to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, among other requirements, not more than 50% of the value of our outstanding capital shares may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined for federal income tax purposes to include certain entities) during the last half of each taxable year, and these capital shares must be beneficially owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year (in each case, other than the first such year for which a REIT election is made). Our declaration of trust includes certain restrictions regarding transfers of our capital shares and ownership limits. In order to protect against the loss of our REIT status, among other things, actual or constructive ownership of our capital shares in violation of the restrictions contained in our declaration of trust or in excess of 9.8% in value of our outstanding equity shares, defined as our common shares, or preferred shares, subject to certain exceptions, would cause the violative transfer or ownership to be void or cause the shares to be transferred to a charitable trust and then sold to a person or entity who can own the shares without violating these limits. As a result, if a violative transfer were made, the recipient of the shares would not acquire any economic or voting rights attributable to the transferred shares. Additionally, the constructive ownership rules for these limits are complex, and groups of related individuals or entities may be deemed a single owner and consequently in violation of the share ownership limits. However, these restrictions and limits may not be adequate in all cases to prevent the transfer of our capital shares in violation of the ownership limitations. The ownership limits discussed above may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing someone from taking control of us, even though a change of control could involve a premium price for the common shares or otherwise be in shareholders' best interests. The trading price of our common shares has been, and may continue to be, subject to significant fluctuations. The market price of our common shares may fluctuate in response to company-specific and general market events and developments, including those described in this Annual Report. In addition, our leverage may impact investor demand for our common shares, which could have a material effect on the market price of our common shares. Furthermore, in 2021, we disclosed communications with an activist shareholder. Such investor activism could interfere with our ability to execute our strategic plan, divert the attention of our Board of Trustees, management and employees, give rise to perceived uncertainties as to our future direction, adversely affect our relationships with key business partners, result in a loss of potential business opportunities, make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified personnel, or require us to incur substantial legal and public relations fees and expenses, any of which could adversely affect our business and operating results. The public valuation of our common shares is related primarily to the earnings that we derive from rental income with respect to the properties in which we have an interest and not from the underlying appraised value of the properties themselves. As a result, interest rate fluctuations and capital market conditions can affect the market value of our common shares. For instance, if interest rates rise, the market price of our common shares may decrease because potential investors seeking a higher yield than they would receive from our common shares may sell our common shares in favor of higher yielding securities. Legal and Regulatory Risks We face possible liability relating to environmental matters. Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations, as an owner of real property, our property owner subsidiaries may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, on, in or under the properties in which we have an interest as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances. These liabilities may include government fines and penalties and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property. These laws may impose liability without regard to whether we knew of, or were responsible for, the presence or disposal of those substances. This liability may be imposed on our property owner subsidiaries in connection with the activities of an operator of, or tenant at, the property. The cost of any required remediation, removal, fines or personal or property damages, and our liability therefore, could be significant and could exceed the value of the property and/or our aggregate assets. In addition, the presence of those substances, or the failure to properly dispose of or remove those substances, may adversely affect a property owner subsidiary's ability to sell or rent that property or to borrow using that property as collateral, which, in turn, would reduce our revenues and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends. A property can also be adversely affected either through physical contamination or by virtue of an adverse effect upon value attributable to the migration of hazardous or toxic substances, or other contaminants that have or may have emanated from other properties. Although the tenants of the properties in which we have an interest are primarily responsible for any environmental damages and claims related to the leased premises, in the event of the bankruptcy or inability of any of the tenants of the 22 properties in which we have an interest to satisfy any obligations with respect to the property leased to that tenant, our property owner subsidiary may be required to satisfy such obligations. In addition, we may be held directly liable for any such damages or claims irrespective of the provisions of any lease and, in certain cases, we have provided lenders with environmental indemnities. From time to time, in connection with the conduct of our business, our property owner subsidiaries authorize the preparation of Phase I environmental reports and, when recommended, Phase II environmental reports, with respect to their properties. There can be no assurance that these environmental reports will reveal all environmental conditions at the properties in which we have an interest. We are also subject to exposure to material liability from the discovery of previously unknown environmental conditions; changes in law; activities of tenants; or activities relating to properties in the vicinity of the properties in which we have an interest. Changes in laws increasing the potential liability for environmental conditions existing on properties or increasing the restrictions on discharges or other conditions may result in significant unanticipated expenditures or may otherwise adversely affect the operations of the tenants of the properties in which we have an interest, which could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations. Costs of complying with changes in governmental laws and regulations may adversely affect our results of operations. We cannot predict what laws or regulations may be enacted, repealed or modified in the future, how future laws or regulations will be administered or interpreted, or how future laws or regulations will affect our properties. Compliance with new or modified laws or regulations, or stricter interpretation of existing laws, may require us or our tenants to incur significant expenditures, impose significant liability, restrict or prohibit business activities and could cause a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Legislation such as the Americans with Disabilities Act may require us to modify our properties at substantial costs and noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. Future legislation may impose additional requirements. We may incur additional costs to comply with any future requirements. Risks Related to Our REIT Status There can be no assurance that we will remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. We believe that LXP has met the requirements for qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 1993, and we intend for LXP to continue to meet these requirements in the future. However, qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Code, for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. The determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control may affect LXP's ability to continue to qualify as a REIT. No assurance can be given that LXP has qualified or will remain qualified as a REIT. In addition, no assurance can be given that legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not significantly change the requirements for qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification. If LXP does not qualify as a REIT, LXP would not be allowed a deduction for dividends paid to shareholders in computing its net taxable income and LXP would not be required to continue making distributions. In addition, LXP's income would be subject to tax at the regular corporate rates. LXP also could be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost. Cash required to be used to pay taxes would not be available to satisfy LXP's debt service obligations and to make distributions to its shareholders. Although we currently intend for LXP to continue to qualify as a REIT, it is possible that future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause LXP, without the consent of the shareholders, to revoke the REIT election or to otherwise take action that would result in disqualification. We may be subject to the REIT prohibited transactions tax, which could result in significant U.S. federal income tax liability to us. A REIT will incur a 100% tax on the net income from a prohibited transaction. Generally, a prohibited transaction includes a sale or disposition of property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. While we believe that the dispositions of our assets pursuant to our investment strategy should not be treated as prohibited transactions, whether a particular sale will be treated as a prohibited transaction depends on the underlying facts and circumstances. We have not sought and do not intend to seek a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service regarding any dispositions. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that our dispositions of such assets will not be subject to the prohibited transactions tax. If all or a significant portion of those dispositions were treated as prohibited transactions, we would incur a significant U.S. federal income tax liability, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position. 23 Distribution requirements imposed by law limit our flexibility. To maintain LXP's status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, LXP is generally required to distribute to its shareholders at least 90% of its taxable income for that calendar year. LXP's taxable income is determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid and by excluding net capital gains. To the extent that LXP satisfies the distribution requirement but distributes less than 100% of its taxable income, LXP will be subject to federal corporate income tax on its undistributed income. In addition, LXP will incur a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount by which its distributions in any year are less than the sum of (i) 85% of its ordinary income for that year, (ii) 95% of its capital gain net income for that year and (iii) 100% of its undistributed taxable income from prior years. We intend for LXP to continue to make distributions to its shareholders to comply with the distribution requirements of the Code and to reduce exposure to federal taxes. Differences in timing between the receipt of income and the payment of expenses in determining its taxable income and the effect of required debt amortization payments could require LXP to borrow funds on a short-term basis in order to meet the distribution requirements that are necessary to achieve the tax benefits associated with qualifying as a REIT. Legislative or regulatory tax changes could have an adverse effect on us. At any time, the federal income tax laws governing REITs or the administrative interpretations of those laws may be amended. Any of those new laws or interpretations may take effect retroactively and could adversely affect us or you as a debt or equity security holder. Federal tax legislation passed in 2017 made numerous changes to tax rules. These changes do not affect the REIT qualification rules directly, but may otherwise affect us or our shareholders. For example, the top federal income tax rate for individuals was reduced to 37%, there is a deduction available for certain Qualified Business Income that reduces the top effective tax rate applicable to ordinary dividends from REITs to 29.6% (through a 20% deduction for ordinary REIT dividends received) and various deductions are eliminated or limited. Most of the changes applicable to individuals are temporary. General Risk Factors A downgrade in our credit ratings could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. The credit ratings assigned to us and our debt could change based upon, among other things, our results of operations and financial condition or the real estate industry generally. These ratings are subject to ongoing evaluation by credit rating agencies, and we cannot assure you that any rating will not be changed or withdrawn by a rating agency in the future if, in the applicable rating agency's judgment, circumstances warrant. Moreover, these credit ratings do not apply to our common and preferred shares and are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold any other securities. Any downgrade of us or our debt could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our debt securities and our common and preferred shares. If any credit rating agency that has rated us or our debt downgrades or lowers its credit rating, or if any credit rating agency indicates that it has placed any such rating on a so-called “watch list” for a possible downgrading or lowering or otherwise indicates that its outlook for that rating is negative, it could also have a material adverse effect on our costs and availability of capital, which could, in turn, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to make dividends and distributions on our common shares and preferred shares. We are dependent upon our key personnel. We are dependent upon key personnel, particularly certain of our executive officers. We do not have employment agreements with our executive officers, but we have entered into severance arrangements with our executive officers that provide certain payments upon specified termination events. Our inability to retain the services of any of our key personnel, an unplanned loss of any of their services or our inability to replace them upon termination as needed, could adversely impact our operations. We do not have key man life insurance coverage on our executive officers. 24 Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments There are no unresolved written comments that were received from the SEC staff relating to our periodic or current reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 25 Item 2. Properties Real Estate Portfolio General. As of December 31, 2021, we had equity ownership interests in approximately 121 consolidated real estate properties containing approximately 54.8 million square feet of rentable space, which were approximately 97.4% leased based upon net rentable square feet. All properties in which we have an interest are held through at least one property owner subsidiary. Ground Leases. Certain of the properties in which we have an interest are subject to long-term ground leases where either the tenant of the building on the property or a third party owns and leases the underlying land to the property owner subsidiary. Certain of these properties are economically owned through the holding of industrial revenue bonds primarily for real estate tax abatement purposes and as such, neither ground lease payments nor bond interest payments are made or received, respectively. For certain of the properties held under a ground lease, the ground lessee has a purchase option. At the end of these long-term ground leases, unless extended or the purchase option is exercised, the land together with all improvements thereon reverts to the landowner. Office Leases. We lease our headquarters office space in New York, New York and our satellite offices in Dallas, Texas and West Palm Beach, Florida. Leverage. As of December 31, 2021, we had outstanding consolidated mortgages and notes payable of approximately $84.4 million with a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 4.0% and a weighted-average maturity of 7.2 years.

Below are the industries in our warehouse/distribution portfolio based on 2021 base rent for consolidated properties owned as of December 31, 2021: Lease Term. As a primarily single-tenant investor, we generally maintain a weighted-average lease term that is longer than most industrial REITs, favoring certainty of cash flow over lease-rollover risk inherent in single-tenant properties. However, we will invest in shorter-term leases if we are optimistic about the location in a releasing context. As of December 31, 2021, the weighted-average lease term in our industrial portfolio was 6.9 years. 35 The following table sets forth information about the 15 largest tenants/guarantors in our portfolio as of December 31, 2021 based on total base rental revenue as of December 31, 2021 ($000s, except square feet).

Legal Proceedings From time to time we are directly and indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We believe, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our common shares are listed for trading on the NYSE under the symbol “LXP”. Holders. As of February 22, 2022, we had 2,297 common shareholders of record. Dividends. Since our predecessor's formation in 1993, we have made quarterly distributions without interruption. While we intend to continue paying regular quarterly dividends to holders of our common shares, the authorization of future dividend declarations will be at the discretion of our Board of Trustees and will depend on our actual cash flow, our financial condition, capital requirements, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code and such other factors as our Board of Trustees deems relevant. The actual cash flow available to pay dividends will be affected by a number of factors, including, among others, the risks discussed under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A and “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 of this Annual Report. We do not believe that the financial covenants contained in our debt instruments will have any adverse impact on our ability to pay dividends in the normal course of business to our common and preferred shareholders or to distribute amounts necessary to maintain our qualification as a REIT.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations In this discussion, we have included statements that may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts but instead represent only our beliefs regarding future events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside our control. These statements may relate to our future plans and objectives, among other things. By identifying these statements for you in this manner, we are alerting you to the possibility that our actual results may differ, possibly materially, from the anticipated results indicated in these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our results to differ, possibly materially, from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, those discussed above in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report and “Cautionary Statements Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” in the beginning of this Annual Report. Introduction The following is a discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of LXP Industrial Trust for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and significant factors that could affect its prospective financial condition and results of operations. This discussion should be read together with our accompanying consolidated financial statements included herein and notes thereto. Investment Trends General. Over the last several years, we have focused our investment activity primarily on income producing single-tenant warehouse and distribution assets and speculative development of warehouse and distribution assets. In 2021, we acquired and/or completed and placed into service $885.6 million of warehouse and distribution assets, which is an increase of $273.8 million compared to 2020 investment activity of $611.8 million. The increase was primarily due to our ability to located attractive investment opportunities in our core industrial markets and the growth of our development pipeline. As of December 31, 2021, our percentage of gross book value from industrial assets, excluding held for sale assets, increased to 98.1% compared to 90.8% as of December 31, 2020 as a result of our acquisition and capital recycling efforts. We expect to recycle our remaining other assets into warehouse and distribution facilities by the end of 2022. While our capital recycling strategy has had and may continue to have a near-term dilutive impact on earnings due to the sales of revenue-producing properties, we believe this strategy will benefit shareholder value in the long term. The industrial real estate market was one of the most resilient real estate markets during the COVID-19 pandemic. One of the main drivers of growth in the industrial real estate market has been e-commerce. We believe that growth will also be driven by companies increasing their inventories in the United States to keep up with demand and to protect against future disruptions in the supply chain. While we believe the industrial market will continue to grow, there continues to be an increase in competition for the acquisition of industrial properties, specifically warehouse/distribution properties, which drives up the cost of the assets we buy and drives down the yield we are able to obtain. This trend was highlighted when initial capitalization rates compressed further during 2021. Lease Term. We primarily acquire assets subject to intermediate and long-term leases with escalating rents, which we believe strengthen our future cash flows and provide a partial hedge against rising interest rates. We intend to maintain a weighted- average lease term longer than many comparable companies and balance our lease expiration schedule. Our industrial investment underwriting focuses less on tenant credit than our historical office investment underwriting as we focus on real estate characteristics such as location and related demographic and local economic trends. This has allowed us to acquire certain short-term leased warehouse/distribution assets, which may be acquired at a discount compared to long-term leased warehouse/distribution assets and allow for a value-add strategy through the lease renewal or a multi-tenanting process. Development. As a result of the competition for income producing single-tenant warehouse/distribution assets, in 2017, we began selectively investing in development projects. We believe we can achieve higher yields from development projects than we can by purchasing existing properties. 40 Our development activities have been focused on speculative development. Our target markets are experiencing low vacancy rates. Despite an increase in construction in recent years, we believe there is sufficient tenant demand for our development projects. Leasing General. Re-leasing properties that are currently vacant or as leases expire at favorable effective rates is a primary area of focus for our asset management. Renewals of industrial leases, particularly for warehouse/distribution facilities, are generally dependent on location and occupancy alternatives for our tenants. If a property cannot be re-let to a single user and the property can be adapted to multi-tenant use, we determine whether the costs of adapting the property to multi-tenant use outweigh the benefit of funding operating costs while searching for a single- tenant and whether selling a vacant property, which limits operating costs and allows us to redeploy capital, is in the best interest of our shareholders. During 2021, we entered into 30 new leases and lease extensions encompassing approximately 8.5 million square feet. The average base rent on these extended leases was approximately $4.04 per square foot compared to the average base rent on these leases before extension of $3.64 per square foot. The weighted-average cost of tenant improvements and lease commissions during 2021 was approximately $2.91 per square foot for new leases and $2.75 per square foot for extended leases. As of December 31, 2021, we had three single-tenant leases in our industrial portfolio where the lease term is scheduled to expire in 2022, covering approximately 0.7 million square feet. As of December 31, 2021, approximately 50% of our industrial base rental revenue was from leases scheduled to expire during 2022 through 2027. We expect an aggregate increase in rental revenue as these leases are reset to market rates. Inherent Growth. Many leases have scheduled fixed rent increases or rent increases based upon the consumer price index. As of December 31, 2021, 95.4% of our single-tenant industrial leases had scheduled rent increases. The average escalation rate of these leases based on the next rent step was 2.8% as of December 31, 2021. A majority of our leases require tenants to pay operating expenses, including maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses. However, certain of our leases provide for some level of landlord responsibility for capital repairs and replacements, the cost of which is generally factored into the rental rate. Our motivation to release vacant space requires us to meet market demands with respect to rental rates, tenant concessions and landlord responsibilities. Developers are similarly motivated when signing leases with tenants due to the significant competition in the industrial space. As a result, the obligations of our property owner subsidiaries on new leases and newly renewed or extended leases may increase to include, among other items, some form of responsibility for operating expenses and/or capital repairs and replacements. Tenant Credit. We continue to monitor the credit of tenants of properties in which we have an interest by (1) subscribing to rating agency information, so that we can monitor changes in the ratings of our rated tenants, (2) reviewing financial statements that are publicly available or that are required to be delivered to us under the applicable lease, (3) monitoring news reports regarding our tenants and their respective businesses, (4) monitoring the timeliness of rent collections and (5) meeting with our tenants. 41 Other properties We continue to recycle our other real estate investments into warehouse/distribution assets. As of December 31, 2021, our other real estate assets represented 1.9% of our gross book value, excluding held for sale assets. We have historically marketed non-industrial assets for sale when we believe we have obtained the highest possible valuation through various means, including lease renewals. However, we expect to accelerate the sale of most of our non-industrial assets in 2022. Non-Recourse Mortgage Loan Resolutions Since we have a limited number of industrial properties subject to non-recourse mortgages, we do not expect many foreclosure sales of consolidated properties in the future. Impairment charges During 2021 and 2020, we incurred impairment charges, of $5.5 million and $14.5 million, respectively, on certain of our assets due to each asset's carrying value being below its estimated fair value. Most of the impairment charges in 2021 and 2020 were incurred on non-core assets due to anticipated shortened holding periods. We cannot estimate if we will incur, or the amount of, future impairment charges on our assets. See Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors”, of this Annual Report. Critical Accounting Estimates In preparing the consolidated financial statements we have made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Accounting estimates are deemed critical if they involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. Below is a summary of the critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. A summary of our significant accounting policies which are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations is set forth in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included in “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report. Acquisition of Real Estate. Primarily all of our acquisitions of real estate assets and liabilities are accounted for as asset acquisitions. As such, the purchase prices of acquired tangible and intangible assets and liabilities are recorded and allocated at fair value on a relative basis. The recorded allocations of tangible assets are based on the “as-if-vacant” value using estimated cash flow projections of the properties acquired which incorporates discount, capitalization and interest rates as well as available comparable market information. Allocations of intangible assets includes management’s estimates of current market rents and leasing costs. We use considerable judgement in our estimates of cash flow projections, discount, capitalization and interest rates, fair market lease rates, carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods and costs to execute similar leases. While our methodology for purchase price allocation did not change during the year ended December 31, 2021, the real estate market is fluid and our assumptions are based on information currently available in the market at the time of acquisition. Significant increases or decreases in these key estimates, particularly with regards to cash flow projections and discount and capitalization rates, would result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement of the real estate assets being acquired. Revenue Recognition. We enter into agreements with tenants that convey the right to control the use of identified space at our properties in exchange for rental revenue. These agreements meet the criteria for recognition as leases under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases. We recognize lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic and rational basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the use benefit is derived from the leased property. We commence revenue recognition when possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant. We evaluate the collectability of our rental payments and recognize revenue on a cash basis when we believe it is no longer probable that we will receive substantially all of the remaining lease payments. Management exercises judgment in assessing collectability of tenant receivables and considers payment history, current credit status, publicly available information about the financial condition of the tenant and other factors. Our assessment of the collectability of tenant receivables can have a significant impact on the rental revenue recognized in our consolidated statements of income. 42 Impairment of Real Estate. We record impairments of our real estate assets classified as held for use when triggering events dictate that an asset may be impaired. An impairment is recorded when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the sum of its undiscounted future operating and residual cash flows. The impairment is the difference between estimated fair value of the asset and the carrying amount. We record impairments of our real estate assets classified as held for sale at the lower of the carrying amount or estimated fair value using the estimated or contracted sales price less costs to sell. Any real estate assets recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis as a result of our impairment analysis are valued using unobservable local and national industry market data such as comparable sales, appraisals, brokers’ opinions of value and/or terms of definitive sales contracts. Additionally, the analysis includes considerable judgement in our estimates of hold periods, projected cash flows and discount and capitalization rates. Significant increases or decreases in any of these inputs, particularly with regards to cash flow projections and discount and capitalization rates, would result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement of the real estate assets being assessed. We will record an impairment charge related to our investments, including investments in non-consolidated entities, if we determine the fair value of the investments are less than their carrying value and such impairment is other-than-temporary. We evaluate whether events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of our investments may not be recoverable. Our evaluation of changes in economic or operating conditions and whether an impairment is other-than-temporary may include developing estimates of fair value, forecasted cash flows or operating income before depreciation and amortization. We estimate undiscounted cash flows and fair value using observable and unobservable data such as operating income, hold periods, estimated capitalization and discount rates, or relevant market multiples, leasing prospects and local market information and whether certain impairments are other-than-temporary. New Accounting Pronouncements For a discussion of new accounting pronouncements, see note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to our consolidated financial statements included in this report. Cybersecurity While we have yet to experience a cyber attack that disrupted our operations in any material respect, all companies, including ours, are increasing the resources allocated to address and protect against cybersecurity threats. Due to the small size of our organization, we rely on third-parties to provide advice and services with respect to cybersecurity, which is not currently, but could become, a material cost. Environmental, Social and Governance ESG matters are becoming a central focus for our shareholders, employees, tenants, suppliers, creditors, and communities. During 2021, we allocated an increased amount of resources to ESG matters. We expect to continue to increase our ESG efforts and the resources allocated to ESG matters in the near future. Liquidity General. Our principal sources of liquidity have been (1) undistributed cash flows generated from our investments, (2) the public and private equity and debt markets, (3) property specific debt, (4) corporate level borrowings, (5) commitments from co- investment partners and (6) proceeds from the sales of our investments. We believe our ratio of dividends to Adjusted Company Funds From Operations is conservative, and allows us to retain cash flow for internal growth. Our ability to incur additional debt to fund acquisitions is dependent upon our existing leverage, the value of the assets we are attempting to leverage and general economic and credit market conditions, which may be outside of management's control or influence. Cash Flows. We believe that cash flows from operations will continue to provide adequate capital to fund our operating and administrative expenses, regular debt service obligations and all dividend payments in accordance with applicable REIT requirements in both the short-term and long-term. However, our cash flow from operations may be negatively affected in the near term if we grant tenant rent relief packages or experience tenant defaults as a result of the effects of COVID-19. In addition, we anticipate that cash on hand, borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility, capital recycling proceeds, issuances of equity, mortgage proceeds and other debt, as well as other available alternatives, will provide the necessary capital required by our business. 43 Cash flows from operations as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows totaled $220.3 million for 2021 and $201.8 million for 2020. The increase was primarily related to the impact of cash flow generated from acquiring properties and termination fee income, partially offset by property sales and vacancies. The underlying drivers that impact our working capital, and therefore cash flows from operations, are the timing of collection of rents, including reimbursements from tenants, payment of interest on mortgage debt and payment of operating and general and administrative costs. We believe the net-lease structure of the leases encumbering a majority of the properties in which we have an interest mitigates the risks of the timing of cash flows from operations since the payment and timing of operating costs related to the properties are generally borne directly by the tenant. The collection and timing of tenant rents are closely monitored by management as part of our cash management program. Net cash used in investing activities totaled $337.8 million in 2021 and $494.4 million in 2020. Cash used in investing activities related primarily to acquisitions of real estate, investments in real estate under construction, land held for development, capital expenditures, lease costs, investments in non-consolidated entities, investment in a note receivable and changes in real estate deposits, net. Cash provided by investing activities primarily related to net proceeds received from the disposition of real estate and distributions from non-consolidated entities. Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $129.1 million in 2021 and $342.6 million in 2020. Cash provided by financing activities primarily related to the issuance of the 2031 and 2030 Senior Notes, revolving credit facility borrowings, mortgage proceeds, issuances of common shares and cash contributions from noncontrolling interests. Cash used in financing activities primarily related to the redemption of the 2023 and 2024 Senior Notes, dividend and debt service payments. Public and Private Equity and Debt Markets. We access the public and private equity and debt markets on an opportunistic basis when we (1) believe conditions are favorable and (2) have a compelling use of proceeds. We expect to continue to access debt and equity markets in the future to implement our business strategy and to fund future growth when market conditions are favorable. However, the volatility in the capital markets primarily resulting from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our ability to access these capital markets. Equity: At-The-Market Offering Program. We maintain an At-The-Market offering program, or ATM program, under which we can issue common shares. The following table summarizes common share issuances under the ATM program for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively: 2021 ATM Issuances 2020 ATM Issuances Year ended December 31, 2021 Shares Sold 1,052,800 Net Proceeds $13.5 million Year ended December 31, 2020 Shares Sold 5,950,882 Net Proceeds $61.0 million During 2021, we settled 4,990,717 common shares previously sold on a forward basis on the maturity date of the contract and received $53.6 million of net proceeds. There were no forward settlements during 2020. As of December 31, 2021, an aggregate of 3,649,023 common shares were sold in forward sales contracts that have not been settled and had an aggregate settlement price of $38.5 million, which is subject to adjustment in accordance with the forward sales contracts. We expect to settle the forward sales contracts by the maturity dates in February 2022. During 2021, we amended the terms of our ATM offering program, under which we may, from time to time, sell up to $350.0 million common shares over the term of the program. As of December 31, 2021, common shares with an aggregate value of $295.0 million remain available for issuance under the ATM program. Underwritten equity offerings. During 2021, we entered into forward sales contracts for the sale of 16,000,000 common shares at a public offering price of $12.11 per common share in an underwritten equity offering that have not yet settled. Subject to our rights to elect cash or net share settlement, we expect to settle the forward sales contracts by the maturity date in May 2022. As of December 31, 2021, the forward sales contracts had an aggregate settlement price $187.5 million, which is subject to adjustment in accordance with the forward sales contracts. 44 During 2020, we issued 17,250,000 common shares at a public offering price of $9.60 per common share in an underwritten equity offering and generated net proceeds of approximately $164.0 million. The proceeds were used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and pending the application of the proceeds were used to pay down all of the then outstanding balance under our revolving credit facility. The volatility in the capital markets primarily resulting from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our ability to access the capital markets through our ATM program and other offerings. Direct Share Purchase Plan. We maintain a direct share purchase plan, which has two components, (i) a dividend reinvestment component and (ii) a direct share purchase component. Under the dividend reinvestment component, common shareholders and holders of OP units may elect to automatically reinvest their dividends and distributions to purchase our common shares. Under the direct share purchase component, our current investors and new investors can make optional cash purchases of our common shares. The administrator of the plan, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., purchases common shares for the accounts of the participants under the plan, at our discretion, either directly from us, on the open market or through a combination of those two options. No shares were purchased from us under the plan in 2021, 2020 and 2019. Share Repurchase Program. During 2015, our Board of Trustees authorized the repurchase of up to 10.0 million common shares and increased this authorization by 10.0 million common shares in 2018. The share repurchase program does not expire. During 2020, we repurchased and retired approximately 1.3 million, at an average price of $8.28 per common share under the repurchase program. During 2021, we did not repurchase any shares and approximately 9.0 million common shares remain available for repurchase. We have continued to, and in the future may, repurchase our common shares in the context of our overall capital plan, and to the extent we believe market volatility offers prudent investment opportunities based on our common share price versus net asset value per share. Operating Partnership Units. In recent years there has not been a great demand for OP units as consideration and, as a result, we expect the percentage of common shares that will be outstanding in the future relative to OP units will increase, and income attributable to noncontrolling interests should be expected to decrease, as such OP units are redeemed for our common shares. Furthermore, our credit agreement requires us to own at least 95.5% of a subsidiary for the assets of such subsidiary to be included in the calculation of our credit agreement covenants, which incents us to maintain our percentage ownership in LCIF and not issue additional OP units. During 2021, LCIF redeemed and cancelled 1,598,906 OP units in connection with the disposition of three properties. As of December 31, 2021, there were 0.8 million OP units outstanding not owned by us which were convertible on a one OP unit for approximately 1.13 common shares basis into an aggregate of 0.9 million common shares assuming we satisfied redemptions entirely with common shares. All outstanding OP units are entitled to a distribution equal to the dividend on our common shares or a stated distribution that may adjust based on our commons share dividend amount. Debt: Corporate Borrowings. In 2021, we issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 2031 Senior Notes. We used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the 2031 Senior Notes to redeem $188.8 million aggregate principal balance of our outstanding 2023 Senior Notes. In 2020, we issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 2030 Senior Notes. We used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the 2030 Senior Notes to repurchase $61.2 million and $51.1 million aggregate principal balance of our outstanding 2023 Senior Notes and 2024 Senior Notes, respectively, through a tender offer. The following Senior Notes were outstanding as of December 31, 2021: Issue Date August 2021 August 2020 May 2014 Face Amount (millions) Interest Rate $ $ 400.0 400.0 198.9 998.9 2.375 % 2.70 % 4.40 % Maturity Date October 2031 September 2030 June 2024 Issue Price 99.758 % 99.233 % 99.883 % The Senior Notes are unsecured and pay interest semi-annually in arrears. We may redeem the Senior Notes at our option at any time prior to maturity in whole or in part by paying the principal amount of the Senior Notes being redeemed plus a make- whole premium. 45 A summary of the maturity dates and interest rates of our unsecured credit agreement, as of December 31, 2021, are as follows: $600.0 Million Revolving Credit Facility(1) $300.0 Million Term Loan(2) Maturity Date 02/2023 01/2025 Interest Rate LIBOR + 0.90% LIBOR + 1.00% (1) Maturity date of the revolving credit facility can be extended to February 2024 at our option. The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.775% to 1.45%. At December 31, 2021, we had no borrowings outstanding and availability of $600.0 million, subject to covenant compliance. (2) The LIBOR portion of the interest rate was swapped to obtain a current fixed rate of 2.732% per annum. As of December 31, 2021, we were in compliance with the financial covenants contained in our corporate level debt agreements. During 2007, we issued $200.0 million in Trust Preferred Securities, which bore interest at a fixed rate of 6.804% through April 2017 and, thereafter, bears interest at a variable rate of three month LIBOR plus 170 basis points. These securities are (1) classified as debt, (2) due in 2037 and (3) currently redeemable by us. As of December 31, 2021, there were $129.1 million of these securities outstanding. Property Specific Debt. As of December 31, 2021, we have a limited number of consolidated properties subject to mortgages. Our property owner subsidiaries do not have mortgage maturities with balloon payments due until 2031. With respect to mortgages encumbering properties where the expected lease rental revenues are sufficient to provide an estimated property value in excess of the mortgage balance, we believe our property owner subsidiaries have sufficient sources of liquidity to meet these obligations through future cash flows from operations, the credit markets and, if determined appropriate by us, a capital contribution from us from either cash on hand ($190.9 million at December 31, 2021), property sale proceeds or borrowing capacity on our primary credit facility ($600.0 million as of December 31, 2021, subject to covenant compliance). Our secured debt decreased to approximately $84.4 million at December 31, 2021 compared to $138.4 million at December 31, 2020. We expect to continue to use property specific, non-recourse mortgages in certain situations as we believe that by properly matching a debt obligation, including the balloon maturity risk, with the terms of a lease, our cash-on-cash returns increase and the exposure to residual valuation risk is reduced. In addition, we may procure credit tenant lease financing in certain situations where we are able to monetize all or a significant portion of the rental revenues of a property at an attractive rate. Institutional Fund Management. We have entered into co-investment programs and joint ventures with institutional investors to mitigate our risk in certain assets and increase our return on equity to the extent we earn management or other fees. However, investments in certain co-investment programs and joint ventures limit our ability to make investment decisions unilaterally relating to the assets and limit our ability to deploy capital. During 2021, we recapitalized a portfolio of 22 special purpose industrial properties, primarily manufacturing assets, through the formation of an institutional joint venture. This enabled us to capitalize on the compression of capitalization rates for these industrial assets, while mitigating risks of staying fully invested in these assets. We own 20% of this institutional joint venture and we and our partner are committed to fund an additional $50.0 million and $200.0 million, respectively, of future capital to grow this joint venture by acquiring special purpose industrial properties that do not conflict with our warehouse and distribution investment strategy. The real estate investments owned by our institutional joint ventures are generally financed with non-recourse debt. Non- recourse debt is generally defined as debt whereby the lenders' sole recourse with respect to borrower defaults is limited to the value of the assets collateralized by the debt. The lender generally does not have recourse against any other assets owned by the borrower or any of the members or partners of the borrower, except for certain specified exceptions listed in the particular loan documents. These exceptions generally relate to "bad boy" acts, including fraud, prohibited transfers and breaches of material representations, and environmental matters. We have guaranteed such obligations for certain of our non-consolidated entities with respect to $776.0 million of such non-recourse debt. We believe the likelihood of making any payments under such guaranties is remote and we generally have an agreement from each partner to reimburse us for its proportionate share of any liability related to a guarantee trigger unless such trigger is caused solely by us. 46 Capital Recycling. Part of our strategy to effectively manage our balance sheet involves pursuing and executing well on property dispositions and recycling of capital. During 2021, we disposed of our interests in 15 properties for an aggregate gross price of $276.7 million. Additionally, we disposed of 22 properties to a non-consolidated joint venture for an aggregate price of $547.2 million, net of purchase price credits. The proceeds were primarily used to (1) retire corporate debt obligations and (2) make investments in real property. As we near the completion of the capital recycling of our non-industrial assets, we expect to continue our recycling efforts with respect to our older industrial assets and/or those outside our target markets where we believe we can take advantage of the strong current market. We believe capital recycling (1) provides cost effective and timely capital support for our investment activities and (2) allows us to maintain line capacity and cash in advance of what we expect to be a growing investment pipeline. Liquidity Needs. Our principal liquidity needs are the contractual obligations set forth under the heading “Contractual Obligations,” below, and the payment of dividends to our shareholders and distributions to the holders of OP units. As we grow our development pipeline, we expect that development activities will become a greater part of our liquidity needs. As of December 31, 2021, we had approximately $1.5 billion of indebtedness, consisting of mortgages and notes payable outstanding, a term loan, 2.375%, 2.70%, and 4.40% Senior Notes and Trust Preferred Securities, with a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 2.8%. The ability of a property owner subsidiary to make debt service payments depends upon the rental revenues of its property and its ability to refinance the mortgage related thereto, sell the related property, or access capital from us or other sources. A property owner subsidiary's ability to accomplish such goals will be affected by numerous economic factors affecting the real estate industry, including the risks described under "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report. If we are unable to satisfy our contractual obligations and other operating costs with our cash flow from operations, we intend to use borrowings and proceeds from issuances of equity or debt securities. If a property owner subsidiary is unable to satisfy its contractual obligations and other operating costs, it may default on its obligations and lose its assets in foreclosure or through bankruptcy proceedings. In connection with our intention to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we expect to continue paying regular dividends to our shareholders. These dividends are expected to be paid from operating cash flows and/or from other sources. Since cash used to pay dividends reduces amounts available for capital investments, we generally intend to maintain a conservative dividend payout ratio, reserving such amounts as we consider necessary for the maintenance or expansion of properties in our portfolio, debt reduction, the acquisition of interests in new properties as suitable opportunities arise, and such other factors as our Board of Trustees considers appropriate. We paid approximately $128.3 million in cash dividends to our common and preferred shareholders in 2021. Although our property owner subsidiaries receive the majority of our base rental payments on a monthly basis, we intend to continue paying dividends quarterly. Amounts accumulated in advance of each quarterly distribution are invested by us in short-term money market or other suitable instruments. Contractual Obligations As of December 31, 2021, we had five ongoing consolidated development projects and expect to incur approximately $312.0 million of costs in 2022, excluding noncontrolling interests' share, to substantially complete the construction of such projects. As of December 31, 2021, we had two consolidated and two non-consolidated joint ventures that own land parcels held for development. We are unable to estimate the timing of any required fundings for potential development projects on these parcels. Capital Resources General. Due to the net-lease structure of a majority of our investments, our property owner subsidiaries historically have not incurred significant expenditures in the ordinary course of business to maintain the properties in which we have an interest. As leases expire, we expect our property owner subsidiaries to incur costs in extending the existing tenant leases, re-tenanting the properties with a single-tenant, or converting the property to multi-tenant use. The amounts of these expenditures can vary significantly depending on tenant negotiations, market conditions, rental rates and property type. 47 Single-Tenant Properties. We do not anticipate significant capital expenditures at the single-tenant properties in which we have an interest that are subject to net or similar leases since the tenants at these properties generally bear all or substantially all of the cost of property operations, maintenance and repairs. However, at certain properties subject to net leases, our property owner subsidiaries are responsible for replacement and/or repair of certain capital items, which may or may not be reimbursed. In addition, at certain single-tenant properties that are not subject to a net lease, our property owner subsidiaries have a level of property operating expense responsibility, which may or may not be reimbursed. Multi-Tenant Properties. Primarily as a result of non-renewals at single-tenant net-lease properties, we have interests in multi-tenant properties in our consolidated portfolio. While tenants of these properties are generally responsible for increases over base year expenses, our property owner subsidiaries are generally responsible for the base-year expenses and capital expenditures, and are responsible for all expenses related to vacant space, at these properties. Vacant Properties. To the extent there is a vacancy in a property, our property owner subsidiary would be obligated for all operating expenses, including capital expenditures, real estate taxes and insurance. When a property is vacant, our property owner subsidiary may incur substantial capital expenditure and releasing costs to re-tenant the property. However, we believe that, over the long term, our focus on industrial assets will result in significant savings compared to investing in office assets due to the lower operating and retenanting costs of industrial assets compared to office assets. Property Expansions. Under certain leases, tenants have the right to expand the facility located on a property in which we have an interest. We expect our property owner subsidiaries may fund these property expansions with either additional secured borrowings, the repayment of which will be funded out of rental increases under the leases covering the expanded properties, or capital contributions from us. Ground Leases. The tenants of properties in which we have an interest generally pay the rental obligations on ground leases either directly to the fee holder or to our property owner subsidiary as increased rent. However, our property owner subsidiaries are responsible for these payments (1) under certain leases without reimbursement and (2) at vacant properties. Environmental Matters. Based upon management's ongoing review of the properties in which we have an interest, management is not aware of any environmental condition with respect to any of these properties that would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. There can be no assurance, however, that (1) the discovery of environmental conditions, which were previously unknown, (2) changes in law, (3) the conduct of tenants or (4) activities relating to properties in the vicinity of the properties in which we have an interest, will not expose us to material liability in the future. Changes in laws increasing the potential liability for environmental conditions existing on properties or increasing the restrictions on discharges or other conditions may result in significant unanticipated expenditures or may otherwise adversely affect the operations of the tenants of properties in which we have an interest. 48 Results of Operations Year ended December 31, 2021 compared with December 31, 2020. The increase in net income attributable to common shareholders of $199.1 million was primarily due to the items discussed below. The increase in total gross revenues of $13.5 million was primarily a result of an increase of $14.5 million of termination income recognized during 2021. Additionally, tenant reimbursement income increased $5.1 million during 2021 because of an increased in managed properties compared to the prior year. These increases were partially offset by a $5.3 million decrease in rental revenue primarily due to the timing of property sales and a $0.6 million decrease in other revenue primarily due to an incentive fee earned upon the sale of a property that we managed for a third-party real estate owner in 2020 with no comparable revenue earned in 2021. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $15.1 million was primarily due to acquisition activity. The increase in property operating expense of $5.8 million was primarily due to an increase in operating expense responsibilities at certain properties. The increase in general and administrative expense of $5.1 million was primarily attributable to a $3.5 million increase in payroll costs and deferred compensation expense and a $1.2 million increase in costs related to investor activism. The increase in non-operating income of $0.6 million was primarily due to funds received for land easements at two of our properties in 2021 with no comparable income in 2020. The decrease in interest and amortization expense of $8.5 million related primarily to a decrease in the amount of our mortgage debt outstanding and a decrease in our overall borrowing rate. The decrease in debt satisfaction gains, net, of $35.3 million was primarily due to the recognition of aggregate debt satisfaction gains of $29.0 million upon the foreclosure of our Charleston, South Carolina and Overland Park, Kansas properties in 2020, offset by a $10.1 million debt satisfaction loss incurred as a result of the repurchase of a portion of the 2023 Senior Notes and 2024 Senior Notes pursuant to a tender offer in 2020. During 2021, we incurred debt satisfaction losses of $13.9 million primarily related to the redemption of our remaining 2023 Senior Notes. The decrease in impairment charges of $8.9 million was primarily due to the timing of impairment charges taken on certain properties. The impairments were primarily due to shortened hold periods, vacancy and lack of leasing prospects. The increase in gains on sales of properties of $228.2 million was primarily related to the sale of 22 properties to a newly- formed joint venture in 2021 and the timing of property dispositions. The decrease in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $0.6 million was primarily a result of a decrease in third-party OP unitholders. The increase in net income or decrease in net loss in future periods will be closely tied to the level of acquisitions made by us. Without acquisitions, the sources of growth in net income are limited to fixed rent adjustments and index adjustments (such as the consumer price index), reduced interest expense on amortizing mortgages and variable rate indebtedness and by controlling other variable overhead costs. However, there are many factors beyond management's control that could offset these items including, without limitation, changes in economic conditions such as the recent economic uncertainty primarily caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, increased interest rates and tenant monetary defaults and the other risks described in this Annual Report. The analysis of the results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared with December 31, 2019 is included in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, on February 18, 2021. 49 Same-Store Results Same-store net operating income, or NOI, which is a non-GAAP measure, represents the NOI for consolidated properties that were owned and included in our portfolio for two comparable reporting periods. We define NOI as operating revenues (rental income (less GAAP rent adjustments and lease termination income, net), and other property income) less property operating expenses. As same-store NOI excludes the change in NOI from acquired and disposed of properties, it highlights operating trends such as occupancy levels, rental rates and operating costs on properties. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating same-store NOI, and accordingly same-store NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. Management believes that same-store NOI is a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance. However, same-store NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it does not reflect the operations of our entire portfolio, nor does it reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, acquisition-related expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization costs, other nonproperty income and losses, the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, or trends in development and construction activities which are significant economic costs and activities that could materially impact our results from operations. We believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to same-store NOI. The following presents our consolidated same-store NOI, for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 ($000): Total cash base rent Tenant reimbursements Property operating expenses Same-store NOI 2021 2020 182,389 $ 26,447 (31,429) 177,407 $ 180,638 25,729 (30,034) 176,333 $ $ Our reported same-store NOI increased from 2020 to 2021 by 0.6% primarily due to an increase in occupancy and cash base rents. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, our historical same-store square footage leased was 99.1% and 98.1%, respectively. 50 Below is a reconciliation of net income to same-store NOI for periods presented: Net income Interest and amortization expense Provision for income taxes Depreciation and amortization General and administrative Transaction costs Non-operating/advisory fee income Gains on sales of properties Impairment charges Debt satisfaction (gains) losses, net Equity in losses of non-consolidated entities Lease termination income, net Straight-line adjustments Lease incentives Amortization of above/below market leases NOI Less NOI: Acquisitions and dispositions Same-Store NOI Funds From Operations Twelve Months ended December 31, 2021 2020 $ 385,091 $ 186,391 46,708 1,293 176,714 35,458 432 (4,402) (367,274) 5,541 13,894 190 (14,972) (12,324) 780 (1,551) 265,578 55,201 1,584 161,592 30,371 255 (4,569) (139,039) 14,460 (21,452) 169 (857) (13,654) 921 (1,580) 269,793 $ (88,171) 177,407 $ (93,460) 176,333 We believe that Funds from Operations, or FFO, which is a non-GAAP measure, is a widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT. We believe FFO is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. FFO is intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and related assets, which assumes that the value of real estate diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. As a result, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing a perspective that may not necessarily be apparent from net income. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, defines FFO as “net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and losses from the sales of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity. The reconciling items include amounts to adjust earnings from consolidated partially-owned entities and equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates to FFO.” FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. We present FFO available to common shareholders and unitholders - basic and also present FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted on a company-wide basis as if all securities that are convertible, at the holder's option, into our common shares, are converted at the beginning of the period. We also present Adjusted Company FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted, which adjusts FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted for certain items which we believe are not indicative of the operating results of our real estate portfolio. We believe this is an appropriate presentation as it is frequently requested by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties. Since others do not calculate these measures in a similar fashion, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as reported by others. These measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. 51 The following presents a reconciliation of net income attributable to common shareholders to FFO available to common shareholders and unitholders and Adjusted Company FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders for 2021 and 2020 (dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts): 2021 2020 FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS: Basic and Diluted: Net income attributable to common shareholders $ 375,848 $ 176,788 Adjustments: Depreciation and amortization Impairment charges - real estate Noncontrolling interests - OP units Amortization of leasing commissions Joint venture and noncontrolling interest adjustment Gains on sales of properties, including non-consolidated entities FFO available to common shareholders and unitholders - basic Preferred dividends Amount allocated to participating securities FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted Debt satisfaction (gains) losses, net, including non-consolidated entities Activist costs Transaction costs Adjusted Company FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted Per Common Share and Unit Amounts Basic: FFO Diluted: FFO Adjusted Company FFO Weighted-Average Common Shares: Basic: Weighted-average common shares outstanding - basic EPS Operating partnership units(1) Weighted-average common shares outstanding - basic FFO Diluted: Weighted-average common shares outstanding - diluted EPS Unvested share-based payment awards Operating partnership units(1) Preferred shares - Series C Weighted-average common shares outstanding - diluted FFO (1) Includes OP units other than OP units held by us. 173,833 5,541 1,672 2,881 8,370 (367,274) 200,871 6,290 510 207,671 13,894 1,199 432 158,655 14,460 2,347 2,937 8,578 (139,596) 224,169 6,290 224 230,683 (21,396) — 255 $ $ $ $ 223,196 $ 209,542 0.72 $ 0.83 0.72 $ 0.78 $ 0.84 0.76 277,640,835 1,918,845 279,559,680 266,914,843 3,083,320 269,998,163 287,369,742 44,261 — — 287,414,003 268,182,552 17,180 3,083,320 4,710,570 275,993,622 52 Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk Our exposure to market risk relates primarily to our variable-rate indebtedness not subject to interest rate swaps and our fixed-rate debt. Our consolidated aggregate principal variable-rate indebtedness was $129.1 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, which represented 8.5% and 9.5%, respectively, of our aggregate principal consolidated indebtedness. During 2021 and 2020, our variable-rate indebtedness had a weighted-average interest rate of 1.7% and 2.4%, respectively. Had the weighted- average interest rate been 100 basis points higher, our interest expense for 2021 and 2020 would have increased by $1.7 million and $1.8 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, our aggregate principal consolidated fixed-rate debt was $1.4 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively, which represented 91.5% and 90.5%, respectively, of our aggregate principal indebtedness. For certain of our financial instruments, fair values are not readily available since there are no active trading markets as characterized by current exchanges between willing parties. Accordingly, we derive or estimate fair values using various valuation techniques, such as computing the present value of estimated future cash flows using discount rates commensurate with the risks involved. However, the determination of estimated cash flows may be subjective and imprecise. Changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies can have a material effect on these estimated fair values. The following fair value was determined using the interest rates that we believe our outstanding fixed-rate debt would warrant as of December 31, 2021 and is indicative of the interest rate environment as of December 31, 2021, and does not take into consideration the effects of subsequent interest rate fluctuations. Accordingly, we estimate that the fair value of our fixed-rate debt was $1.4 billion as of December 31, 2021. Our interest rate risk objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate fluctuations on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we manage our exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates through the use of fixed-rate debt instruments to the extent that reasonably favorable rates are obtainable with such arrangements. We have historically entered into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps or caps to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument or to effectively lock the interest rate on a portion of our variable-rate debt. As of December 31, 2021, we had four interest rate swap agreements in our consolidated portfolio, all of which expire in January 2025. 53 Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data Financial Statements and Supplementary Data Reports of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (PCAOB ID No. 34) Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2021, December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the years ended December 31, 2021, December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity for the years ended December 31, 2021, December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of December 31, 2021, December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 55 58 59 60 61 64 65 54 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of LXP Industrial Trust Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of LXP Industrial Trust (formerly Lexington Realty Trust) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes and the schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 24, 2022, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Real Estate, net — Determination of Impairment Indicators and Impairment — Refer to Notes 2 and 5 of the financial statements Critical Audit Matter Description The Company’s evaluation of real estate assets for impairment involves an initial assessment of each real estate asset to determine whether events or changes in circumstances exist that indicate that the carrying value of real estate assets may no longer be recoverable. Possible indications of impairment may include increases in vacancy at a property, tenant financial instability, or whether there is a current expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset or asset group will be sold or otherwise disposed of before the end of its previously estimated useful life. When such events or changes in circumstances exist, the Company evaluates its real estate assets for impairment by comparing anticipated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be derived from the asset to the respective carrying value. If the carrying value of an asset exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, an analysis is performed to determine the fair value of the asset. An asset is determined to be impaired if the asset's carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value. The Company makes significant assumptions to estimate its holding period of an asset. Additionally, for those real estate assets where indications of impairment have been identified, the Company makes significant estimates and assumptions related to rental rates and capitalization rates included in the estimated future undiscounted cash flows and, as necessary, the discount rate 55 applied to determine fair value of the assets. Changes in these assumptions could have a significant impact on the identification of real estate assets for impairment, the estimated fair value of the asset, or the amount of any impairment charge recognized. Total real estate assets as of December 31, 2021 were $3.5 billion. The Company recorded $5.5 million of impairment charges on real estate assets during the year ended December 31, 2021. Auditing management’s assumptions requires evaluation of whether management appropriately identified impairment indicators relating to the asset’s estimated holding periods and whether management’s anticipated future undiscounted cash flows and estimated fair values are reasonable. Because of the subjectivity of these assumptions our audit procedures required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists. How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit Our audit procedures to evaluate management’s estimated holding period of an asset and to evaluate the assumptions used in undiscounted cash flows and fair value models included the following, among others: • We tested the effectiveness of controls over management's evaluation of real estate assets for impairment, specifically over identification of possible events or changes in estimated holding period of an asset, controls over rental rates and capitalization rates used in management’s anticipated future undiscounted cash flows, as well as controls over management selection and estimate of discount rates in estimating fair value of real estate assets. • We evaluated the Company’s assessment of estimated holding periods by: a. Comparing management’s previous holding period assumptions to the Company’s subsequent sale of an asset. b. Discussing with accounting and operations management the Company’s intent regarding sale or holding onto the asset. c. Evaluating the consistency of the assumptions used with obtained audit evidence in other audit areas. d. Reading minutes of the executive committee and board of directors’ meetings to identify any indicators that a long- lived asset will likely be sold or otherwise disposed of before the end of its previously estimated useful life. • We evaluated the Company’s determination of anticipated future undiscounted cash flows for those assets with impairment indicators and the fair value for those that the carrying value was determined not to be recoverable by performing the following: With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the (1) valuation methodology; (2) significant assumptions made, including testing the source information underlying the determination of the discount rate, rental rates, capitalization rates and developing a range of independent estimates based on external market sources and comparing our estimates to the assumptions utilized by management; and (3) mathematical accuracy of the calculation. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP New York, New York February 24, 2022 We have served as the Company's auditor since 2017. 56 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the shareholders and the Board of Trustees of LXP Industrial Trust Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of LXP Industrial Trust (formerly Lexington Realty Trust) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, of the Company and our report dated February 24, 2022, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. Basis for Opinion The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP New York, New York February 24, 2022 57 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS ($000, except share

statements. 64 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) (1) The Company LXP Industrial Trust (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, except when the context only applies to the parent entity, the “Company”) is a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns a portfolio of equity investments focused on single-tenant industrial properties. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had equity ownership interests in approximately 121 consolidated properties located in 23 states. The properties in which the Company has an interest are primarily net leased to tenants in various industries. The Company believes it has qualified as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Accordingly, the Company will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to its shareholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under the Code. The Company is permitted to participate in certain activities from which it was previously precluded in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”) under the Code. As such, the TRS are subject to federal income taxes on the income from these activities. The Company conducts its operations indirectly through (1) property owner subsidiaries, which are single purpose entities, (2) a wholly-owned TRS, Lexington Realty Advisors, Inc. (“LRA”), and (3) joint ventures. Property owner subsidiaries are landlords under leases for properties in which the Company has an interest and/or borrowers under loan agreements secured by properties in which the Company has an interest and lender subsidiaries are lenders under loan agreements where the Company made an investment in a loan asset, but in all cases are separate and distinct legal entities. Each property owner subsidiary is a separate legal entity that maintains separate books and records. The assets and credit of each property owner subsidiary with a property subject to a mortgage loan are not available to creditors to satisfy the debt and other obligations of any other person, including any other property owner subsidiary or any other affiliate. Consolidated entities that are not property owner subsidiaries do not directly own any of the assets of a property owner subsidiary (or the general partner, member or managing member of such property owner subsidiary), but merely hold partnership, membership or beneficial interest therein, which interests are subordinate to the claims of such property owner subsidiary's (or its general partner's, member's or managing member's) creditors. (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company consolidates its wholly- owned subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which it controls (i) through voting rights or similar rights or (ii) by means other than voting rights if the Company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). Entities which the Company does not control and entities which are VIEs in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. During 2021, the Company acquired interests in seven joint ventures with developers, consisting of five on-going development projects and two land joint ventures, with ownership interests ranging from 80% to 95.5%. Each joint venture acquired land parcels to develop industrial properties. The Company determined that the joint ventures are VIEs in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. As a result, these joint ventures’ operations are consolidated in the Company's financial statements. In addition, the Company is the primary beneficiary of certain other VIEs as it has a controlling financial interest in these entities. Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. (“LCIF”) is a consolidated VIE and the Company has an approximate 99% ownership interest. 65 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) The assets of each VIE are only available to satisfy such VIE's respective liabilities. As of December 31, 2020, the VIEs' mortgages and notes payable were non-recourse to the Company. Below is a summary of selected financial data of consolidated VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary included in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020: Real estate, net Total assets Mortgages and notes payable, net Total liabilities December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 $ $ $ $ 810,087 $ 952,611 $ — $ 47,011 $ 569,461 679,786 25,600 40,974 In addition, the Company acquires, from time to time, properties using a reverse like-kind exchange structure pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code (a "reverse 1031 exchange") and, as such, the properties are in the possession of an Exchange Accommodation Titleholder ("EAT") until the reverse 1031 exchange is completed. The EAT is classified as a VIE as it is a “thinly capitalized” entity. The Company consolidates the EAT because it is the primary beneficiary as it has the ability to control the activities that most significantly impact the EAT's economic performance and can collapse the reverse 1031 exchange structure at any time. The assets of the EAT primarily consist of leased property (net real estate and intangibles). Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic and rational basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the use benefit is derived from the leased property. Revenue is recognized on a contractual basis for leases with escalations tied to a consumer price index with no floor. The Company evaluates the collectability of its rental payments and recognizes revenue on a cash basis when the Company believes it is no longer probable that it will receive substantially all of the remaining lease payments. Renewal options in leases are excluded from the calculation of straight-line rent if the renewals are not reasonably assured. If the Company funds tenant improvements and the improvements are deemed to be owned by the Company, revenue recognition will commence when the improvements are substantially completed and possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant. If the Company determines that the tenant allowances are lease incentives, the Company commences revenue recognition when possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant for tenant work to begin. The lease incentive is recorded as a deferred expense and amortized as a reduction of revenue on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. The Company recognizes lease termination fees as rental revenue in the period received and writes off unamortized lease-related intangible and other lease-related account balances, provided there are no further Company obligations under the lease. Otherwise, such fees and balances are recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining obligation period with the termination payments being recorded as a component of rent receivable-deferred on the consolidated balance sheets. Earnings Per Share. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed under the two-class method by dividing net income (loss) reduced by preferred dividends and amounts allocated to certain non-vested share-based payment awards, if applicable, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share amounts are similarly computed but include the effect, when dilutive, of in-the-money common share options and non-vested common shares, unsettled common shares sold in forward sales transactions, OP units and put options of certain convertible securities. Use of Estimates. Management has made a number of significant estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses to prepare these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the economic environment. Management adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of accounts receivable, allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long- lived assets and equity method investments, valuation of derivative financial instruments, valuation of awards granted under compensation plans, the determination of the incremental borrowing rate for leases where the Company is the lessee and the useful lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. 66 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) Acquisition of Real Estate. The fair value of the real estate acquired, which includes the impact of fair value adjustments for assumed mortgage debt related to property acquisitions, is allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their fair values. The Company's acquisitions are primarily considered asset acquisitions, thus acquisition costs are capitalized. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land, building and improvements and fixtures and equipment) is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant. The “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land and building and improvements based on management's determination of relative fair values of these assets. Factors considered by management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions. Management generally retains a third party to assist in the allocations. In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-market lease values are recorded based on the difference between the current in-place lease rent and management's estimate of current market rents. Below-market lease intangibles are recorded as part of deferred revenue and amortized into rental revenue over the non-cancelable periods and bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. Above-market leases are recorded as part of intangible assets and amortized as a direct charge against rental revenue over the non-cancelable portion of the respective leases. The aggregate value of other acquired intangible assets, consisting of in-place leases and tenant relationship values, is measured by the excess of (1) the purchase price paid for a property over (2) the estimated fair value of the property as if vacant, determined as set forth above. This aggregate value is allocated between in-place lease values and tenant relationship values based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease. The value of in-place leases is amortized to expense over the remaining non-cancelable periods and any bargain renewal periods of the respective leases. The value of tenant relationships is amortized to expense over the applicable lease term plus expected renewal periods. Depreciation is determined by the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic useful lives of the properties. The Company generally depreciates its real estate assets over periods ranging up to 40 years. Impairment of Real Estate. The Company evaluates the carrying value of all tangible and intangible real estate assets held for investment for possible impairment when an event or change in circumstance has occurred that indicates its carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company considers the strategic decisions regarding the future plans to sell properties and other market factors. The Company regularly updates significant estimates and assumptions including rental rates, capitalization rates and discount rates, which are included in the anticipated future undiscounted cash flows derived from the asset. If such cash flows are less than the asset's carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized to the extent by which the asset's carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value, which may be below the balance of any non-recourse financing. Estimating future cash flows and fair values is highly subjective and such estimates could differ materially from actual results. Investments in Non-Consolidated Entities. The Company uses the equity method of accounting for those joint ventures where it exercises significant influence but does not have control. If the Company's investment in the entity is insignificant and the Company has no influence over the control of the entity then the entity is accounted for under the cost method. 67 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) Impairment of Equity Method Investments. The Company assesses whether there are indicators that the value of its equity method investments may be impaired. An impairment charge is recognized only if the Company determines that a decline in the value of the investment below its carrying value is other-than-temporary. The assessment of impairment is highly subjective and involves the application of significant assumptions and judgments about the Company's intent and ability to recover its investment given the nature and operations of the underlying investment, including the level of the Company's involvement therein, among other factors. To the extent an impairment is deemed to be other-than-temporary, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the estimated fair value of the investment. Fair Value Measurements. The Company follows the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("Topic 820"), to determine the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs, which are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considering counterparty credit risk. The Company has formally elected to apply the portfolio exception within Topic 820 with respect to measuring counterparty risk for all of its derivative transactions subject to master netting arrangements. The Company estimates the fair value of its real estate assets, including non-consolidated real estate assets, by using income and market valuation techniques. The Company may estimate fair values using market information such as recent sale contracts (Level 2 inputs) or recent sale offers or discounted cash flow models, which primarily rely on Level 3 inputs. The cash flow models include estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period. These cash flows may include contractual rental revenues, projected future rental revenues and expenses and forecasted tenant improvements and lease commissions based upon market conditions determined through discussion with local real estate professionals, experience the Company has with its other owned properties in such markets and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models are estimated by management based upon rates that management believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties based upon an analysis of factors such as property and tenant quality, geographical location and local supply and demand observations. To the extent the Company under-estimates forecasted cash outflows (tenant improvements, lease commissions and operating costs) or over-estimates forecasted cash inflows (rental revenue rates), the estimated fair value of its real estate assets could be overstated. Cost Capitalization. The Company capitalizes interest and direct and indirect project costs associated with the initial construction of a property up to the time the property is substantially complete and ready for its intended use in real estate under construction in the consolidated balance sheets. If costs and activities incurred to ready the vacant space cease, then cost capitalization is also discontinued until such activities are resumed. Once necessary work has been completed on a vacant space, project costs are no longer capitalized. Properties Held For Sale. Assets and liabilities of properties that meet various held for sale criteria, including whether it is probable that a sale will occur within 12 months, are presented separately in the consolidated balance sheets. The operating results of these properties are reflected as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations only if the sale of these assets represents a major strategic shift in operations; if not, the operating results are included in continuing operations. Properties classified as held for sale are carried at the lower of net carrying value or estimated fair value less costs to sell and depreciation and amortization are no longer recognized. Properties that do not meet the held for sale criteria are accounted for as operating properties. Deferred Expenses. Deferred expenses consist primarily of revolving line of credit debt and leasing costs. Debt costs are amortized using the straight-line method, which approximates the interest method, over the terms of the debt instruments and leasing costs are amortized over the term of the related lease. 68 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) Derivative Financial Instruments. The Company accounts for its interest rate swap agreements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("Topic 815"). In accordance with Topic 815, these agreements are carried on the balance sheet at their respective fair values, as an asset if fair value is positive, or as a liability if fair value is negative. If the interest rate swap is designated as a cash flow hedge, the portion of the interest rate swap's change in fair value is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Upon entering into hedging transactions, the Company documents the relationship between the interest rate swap agreement and the hedged item. The Company also documents its risk-management policies, including objectives and strategies, as they relate to its hedging activities. The Company assesses, both at inception of a hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether or not the hedge is highly effective. The Company will discontinue hedge accounting on a prospective basis with changes in the estimated fair value reflected in earnings when (1) it is determined that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting cash flows of a hedged item (including forecasted transactions), (2) it is no longer probable that the forecasted transaction will occur or (3) it is determined that designating the derivative as an interest rate swap is no longer appropriate. The Company does and may continue to utilize interest rate swap and cap agreements to manage interest rate risk, but does not anticipate entering into derivative transactions for speculative trading purposes. Stock Compensation. The Company maintains an equity participation plan. Non-vested share grants generally vest either based upon (1) time, (2) performance and/or (3) market conditions. All share-based payments to employees are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations based on their fair values. The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for share-based award forfeitures in compensation costs when they occur. Tax Status. The Company has made an election to qualify, and believes it is operating so as to qualify, as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to its shareholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code. The Company is permitted to participate in certain activities from which it was previously precluded in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries under the Code. As such, the Company is subject to federal and state income taxes on the income from these activities. Income taxes, primarily related to the Company's taxable REIT subsidiaries, are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Restricted Cash. Restricted cash is comprised primarily of cash balances held by lenders and operating cash reserves held in escrow for one property. Environmental Matters. Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations, an owner of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, on, in or under such property as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances. These liabilities may include government fines, penalties and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence or disposal of such substances. Although most of the tenants of properties in which the Company has an interest are primarily responsible for any environmental damage and claims related to the leased premises, in the event of the bankruptcy or inability of the tenant of such premises to satisfy any obligations with respect to such environmental liability, or if the tenant is not responsible, the Company's property owner subsidiary may be required to satisfy any such obligations, should they exist. In addition, the property owner subsidiary, as the owner of such a property, may be held directly liable for any such damages or claims irrespective of the provisions of any lease. As of December 31, 2021, the Company was not aware of any environmental matter relating to any of its investments that would have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. 69 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) Segment Reporting. The Company operates generally in one industry segment, single-tenant real estate assets. Reclassifications. Certain amounts included in prior years' financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. Recently Issued Accounting Guidance. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional, applies for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effect of) reference rate reform on financial reporting, in response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and, particularly, the risk of cessation of LIBOR and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. As of March 31, 2020, the Company has elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur. In July 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-05, Lease (Topic 842): Lessors-Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments, to amend the guidance to provide alternative accounting for sales type and direct finance leases with variable lease payments. The amendments in ASU 2021-05 amend the accounting guidance to allow lessors to classify and account for variable leases payments that do no depend on a reference index or a rate as an operating lease if certain criteria are met. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 with early adoption permitted. The Company does not currently have any leases that are classified as sales-type or direct finance leases. Therefore, the Company early adopted the measure on a prospective basis to applicable leases that commenced or were modified on or after July 1, 2021. (3) Earnings Per Share A portion of the Company's non-vested share-based payment awards are considered participating securities and as such, the Company is required to use the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Under the two-class computation method, net losses are not allocated to participating securities unless the holder of the security has a contractual obligation to share in the losses. The non-vested share-based payment awards are not allocated losses as the awards do not have a contractual obligation to share in losses of the Company. The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2021: BASIC Net income attributable to common shareholders $ 375,848 $ 176,788 $ 273,225 Weighted-average number of common shares outstanding 277,640,835 266,914,843 237,642,048 Net income attributable to common shareholders - per common share basic $ 1.35 $ 0.66 $ 1.15 2021 2020 2019 70 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) DILUTED: Net income attributable to common shareholders - basic $ 375,848 $ 176,788 $ 273,225 Impact of assumed conversions 7,962 — — Net income attributable to common shareholders $ 383,810 $ 176,788 $ 273,225 2021 2020 2019 Weighted-average common shares outstanding - basic 277,640,835 266,914,843 237,642,048 Effect of dilutive securities: Unvested share-based payment awards and options 989,177 1,267,709 292,467 Shares issuable under forward sales agreements Operating Partnership Units Series C Cumulative Convertible Preferred 2,110,315 1,918,845 4,710,570 — — — — — — Weighted-average common shares outstanding - diluted 287,369,742 268,182,552 237,934,515 Net income attributable to common shareholders - per common share diluted $ 1.34 $ 0.66 $ 1.15 For per common share amounts, all incremental shares are considered anti-dilutive for periods that have a loss from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders. In addition, other common share equivalents may be anti- dilutive in certain periods. (4) Investments in Real Estate The Company's real estate, net, consists of the following at December 31, 2021 and 2020: Real estate, at cost: Buildings and building improvements Land, land estates and land improvements Construction in progress Real estate intangibles: In-place lease values Tenant relationships Above-market leases Land held for development Investments in real estate under construction Accumulated depreciation and amortization(1) Real estate, net 2021 2020 3,235,601 $ 342,895 5,482 320,847 13,205 7,351 104,160 161,165 4,190,706 (655,740) 3,534,966 $ 3,144,176 367,272 3,116 357,640 33,327 18,326 — 75,906 3,999,763 (884,465) 3,115,298 $ $ (1) Includes accumulated amortization of real estate intangible assets of $151,041 and $199,997 in 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The Company had below-market leases, net of accumulated accretion, which are included in deferred revenue, of $14,401 and $16,531, respectively, as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. The estimated accretion for the next five years is $1,955 in 2022, $1,955 in 2023, $1,955 in 2024, $1,865 in 2025 and $1,663 in 2026. 71 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) The Company completed the following acquisitions during 2021 and 2020: 2021: Market(1) Indianapolis, IN Indianapolis, IN Central Florida Columbus, OH(2) Houston, TX Houston, TX Houston, TX Cincinnati/Dayton, OH Central Florida Greenville-Spartanburg, SC Acquisition/ Completion Date Initial Cost Basis $ January 2021 January 2021 January 2021 March 2021 May 2021 May 2021 May 2021 June 2021 June 2021 June 2021 Greenville-Spartanburg, SC June 2021 Greenville-Spartanburg, SC July 2021 Greenville-Spartanburg, SC July 2021 Greenville-Spartanburg, SC(3) July 2021 July 2021 Greenville-Spartanburg, SC Columbus, OH Indianapolis, IN Indianapolis, IN Indianapolis, IN Atlanta, GA(2)(4) Phoenix, AZ(2) Phoenix, AZ Indianapolis, IN Atlanta, GA Atlanta, GA Atlanta, GA August 2021 October 2021 October 2021 October 2021 November 2021 November 2021 December 2021 December 2021 December 2021 December 2021 December 2021 $ Primary Lease Expiration at Acquisition 12/2024 08/2025 05/2031 03/2024 08/2028 12/2026 08/2024 06/2023 N/A 09/2025 06/2026 04/2029 12/2029 N/A 09/2026 11/2029 12/2026 03/2031 12/2026 10/2028 11/2036 12/2031 11/2031 07/2031 09/2031 09/2025 14,310 14,120 22,358 19,531 28,293 37,686 11,512 18,674 48,593 36,903 23,812 29,421 26,106 18,394 31,646 29,265 16,315 44,479 15,644 47,568 61,490 83,517 93,899 37,625 47,618 26,838 Land Building and Improvements Lease in-place Value Intangible Above (Below) Market Lease Intangible 1,208 $ 1,162 1,416 2,800 4,272 6,489 1,792 1,109 2,610 2,376 1,329 2,819 1,169 1,020 1,710 2,251 741 1,991 695 7,209 11,732 8,027 8,335 2,006 2,497 1,465 12,052 $ 11,825 19,910 16,731 22,296 28,470 9,089 16,477 45,983 32,121 21,419 24,508 23,070 17,374 27,817 25,184 14,488 39,338 13,958 40,359 49,758 73,650 80,051 33,276 42,255 23,649 1,035 $ 1,133 1,032 — 1,725 2,727 631 1,088 — 2,406 1,064 2,094 1,867 — 2,119 1,830 1,086 3,150 991 — — 1,840 5,513 2,343 2,866 1,724 15 — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — 15 $ 885,617 $ 80,230 $ 765,108 $ 40,264 $ Weighted-average life of intangible assets (years) 7.3 3.5 (1) (2) (3) (4) A land parcel located in Hebron, OH was also purchased for $371.

Included in the 2021 dispositions are three non-industrial properties with a disposition price of $35,369, which was satisfied through (i) the redemption of 1,598,906 operating units ("OP units"), (ii) the assumption of $11,610 of third party mortgage financing that encumbered two of the properties and (iii) $1,497 of seller financing. The seller financing note receivable has a fixed interest rate of 6.0% per annum and matures on August 1, 2025. As of December 31, 2021, the balance of the note receivable is $1,489. Included in the 2020 dispositions are three properties which were conveyed to the lenders in forgiveness of the mortgage loan encumbering each property. The balances of the non-recourse mortgage loans were in excess of the value of the property collateral, resulting in aggregate debt satisfaction gains, net of $34,450. For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized net debt satisfaction charges relating to properties sold of $229, $2,879 and $4,415, respectively. The Company had eight and two properties classified as held for sale at December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Assets and liabilities of the held for sale properties as of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 consisted of the following: Assets: Real estate, at cost Real estate, intangible assets Accumulated depreciation and amortization Deferred expenses, net Other Liabilities: Accounts payable and other liabilities Deferred revenue Prepaid rent December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 $ $ $ $ 170,117 $ 9,454 (99,659) 1,759 915 82,586 $ 1,908 $ 483 1,077 3,468 $ 32,629 7,941 (24,312) — 272 16,530 588 — 202 790 The Company assesses on a regular basis whether there are any indicators that the carrying value of its real estate assets may be impaired. Potential indicators may include an increase in vacancy at a property, tenant financial instability, change in the estimated holding period of the asset, the potential sale or transfer of the property in the near future and changes in economic conditions. An asset is determined to be impaired if the asset's carrying value is in excess of its estimated fair value and the Company estimates that its cost will not be recovered. During 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized aggregate impairment charges on real estate properties of $5,541, $14,460 and $5,329, respectively. During 2021 and 2020, the aggregate impairment charges were recognized on properties that were primarily impaired due to a reduction in the anticipated holding period for those properties. During 2019, aggregate impairment charges of $2,106 were recognized on two vacant retail properties, which were sold in 2019, and a held for use impairment of $2,974 was recognized on an office property due to a reduction of the anticipated holding period and leasing prospects. 74 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) (6) Fair Value Measurements The following tables present the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall: Description 2021 (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Interest rate swap liabilities Impaired real estate assets (1) $ $ (6,258) $ 12,735 $ — $ — $ (6,258) $ — — $ 12,735 (1) Represents non-recurring fair value measurement. The Company measured the $12,735 fair value based on a discounted cash flow analysis, using a discount rate ranging from 8.0% to 10.0% and a residual capitalization rate ranging from 7.5% to 8.0%. As significant inputs to the models are unobservable, the Company determined that the value determined for these properties falls within Level 3 of the fair value reporting hierarchy. Fair Value Measurements Using Description 2020 (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Interest rate swap liabilities Impaired real estate assets (1) $ $ (17,963) $ 21,141 $ — $ — $ (17,963) $ 2,480 $ — 18,661 (1) Represents non-recurring fair value measurement. The fair value is calculated as of the impairment date. $2,480 was based on an observable contract thus Level 2. The Company measured $18,661 of these fair values based on a discounted cash flow analysis, using a discount rate of 9.0% and residual capitalization rates ranging from 8.0% to 9.0%. As significant inputs to the models are unobservable, the Company determined that the value determined for these properties falls within Level 3 of the fair value reporting hierarchy. Fair Value Measurements Using The majority of the inputs used to value the Company's interest rate swaps fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, such as observable market interest rate curves; however, the credit valuation associated with the interest rate swaps utilizes Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company determined that the credit valuation adjustment relative to the overall interest rate swaps was not significant. As a result, all interest rate swaps have been classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The table below sets forth the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of December 31, 2021 and 2020: Liabilities Debt As of December 31, 2021 As of December 31, 2020 Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value $ 1,497,064 $ 1,491,868 $ 1,341,242 $ 1,368,151 The fair value of the Company's debt is primarily estimated utilizing Level 3 inputs by using a discounted cash flow analysis, based upon estimates of market interest rates. The Company determines the fair value of its Senior Notes using market prices. The inputs used in determining the fair value of these notes are categorized as Level 1 due to the fact that the Company uses quoted market rates to value these instruments. However, the inputs used in determining the fair value could be categorized as Level 2 if trading volumes are low. Fair values cannot be determined with precision, may not be substantiated by comparison to quoted prices in active markets and may not be realized upon sale. Additionally, there are inherent uncertainties in any fair value measurement technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates, liquidity risks and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the fair value measurement amounts. Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. The Company estimates that the fair value of cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of the instruments. 75 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) (7) Investments in Non-Consolidated Entities Below is a schedule of the Company's investments in non-consolidated entities: Investment MFG Cold JV NNN Office JV L.P.

As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, there was $129,120 original principal amount of Trust Preferred Securities outstanding and $1,525 and $1,625, respectively, of unamortized debt issuance costs. 78 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) Scheduled principal payments for these debt instruments for the next five years and thereafter are as follows: Year ending December 31, 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 Thereafter Unamortized debt discounts Unamortized debt issuance costs (10) Derivatives and Hedging Activities Total — — 198,932 — — 929,120 1,128,052 (3,655) (8,871) 1,115,526 $ $ Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives. The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the type, amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company's derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company's known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company's investments and borrowings. Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk. The Company's objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense, to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and therefore manage its cash outflows as it relates to the underlying debt instruments. To accomplish these objectives the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy relating to certain of its variable rate debt instruments. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The Company did not incur any ineffectiveness during 2021 and 2020. During July 2019, the Company entered into four interest rate swap agreements with its counterparties. The swaps were designated as cash flow hedges of the risk of variability attributable to changes in the LIBOR swap rates on its $300,000 LIBOR-indexed variable-rate unsecured term loan. Accordingly, changes in fair value of the swaps are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified to earnings as interest becomes receivable or payable. The swaps expire coterminous with the extended maturity of the term loan in January 2025. During the next 12 months, the Company estimates that an additional $3,848 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense if the swaps remain outstanding. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk: Interest Rate Derivative Number of Instruments Interest Rate Swaps 4 79 Notional $300,000 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) The table below presents the fair value of the Company's derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the consolidated balance sheet.

Total interest expense presented in the consolidated statements of operations in which the effects of cash flow hedges are recorded was $46,708 and $55,201 for 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company's agreements with the swap derivative counterparties contain provisions whereby if the Company defaults on the underlying indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default of the swap derivative obligation. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had not posted any collateral related to the agreements. 80 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) (11) Leases Lessor The Company's lease portfolio as a lessor primarily includes general purpose, single-tenant net-leased real estate assets. Most of the Company’s leases require tenants to pay fixed annual rental payments that escalate on an annual basis and variable payments for other operating expenses, such as real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance ("CAM"), and utilities, that are based on the actual expenses incurred. Certain leases allow for the tenant to renew the lease term upon expiration or earlier. Periods covered by a renewal option are included within the lease term only when renewals are deemed to be reasonably certain. Certain leases allow for the tenant to terminate the lease before the expiration of the lease term and certain leases provide the tenant with the right to purchase the leased property at fair market value or a stipulated price upon expiration of the lease term or before. Accounting guidance under Topic 842 requires the Company to make certain assumptions and judgments in applying the guidance, including determining whether an arrangement includes a lease and determining the lease term when the contract has renewal, purchase or early termination provisions. The Company analyzes its accounts receivable, customer creditworthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the collectability of the lessee's total accounts receivable balance on a lease by lease basis. In addition, tenants in bankruptcy are analyzed and considerations are made in connection with the expected pre- petition and post-petition claims. If a lessee's accounts receivable balance is considered uncollectable, the Company will write-off the receivable balances associated with the lease to rental revenue and cease to recognize lease income, including straight-line rent, unless cash is received. If the Company subsequently determines that it is probable it will collect substantially all of the lessee's remaining lease payments under the lease term; the Company will reinstate the straight-line balance adjusting for the amount related to the period when the lease was accounted for on a cash basis. In February 2020, the Company wrote off a deferred rent receivable balance of $615 as a reduction of rental revenue related to a tenant that dissolved and surrendered its leased premises in an industrial property located in the Columbus, Ohio market. During 2019, rental revenue was reduced by an aggregate of $352 for accounts receivable deemed uncollectible. Certain tenants have been experiencing financial difficulties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. During 2020, the Company wrote off aggregate deferred rent receivable balances of $1,383, as a reduction of rental revenue, related to tenants with rent collectability concerns. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company also wrote off or reserved an aggregate of $370 and $389, respectively, accounts receivable, net, relating to certain tenants suffering from the current economic conditions. The Company determined that the lease and non-lease components in its leases are a single lease component, which is, therefore, being recognized as rental revenue in its consolidated statements of operations. The primary non-lease service that is included within rental revenue is CAM services provided as part of the Company’s real estate leases. Topic 842 requires that the Company capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease. As of December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred $19, $67 and $191, respectively, of costs that were not incremental to the execution of leases, which are included in property operating expenses in its consolidated statements of operations. The Company manages the risk associated with the residual value of its leased properties by including contract clauses that make tenants responsible for surrendering the space in good condition upon lease termination, holding a diversified portfolio, and other activities. The Company does not have residual value guarantees on specific properties. 81 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) The following table presents the Company’s classification of rental revenue for its operating leases for the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020: Classification Fixed Variable(1)(2) Total December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 $ $ 287,552 $ 52,392 339,944 $ 293,457 32,354 325,811 (1) Primarily comprised of tenant reimbursements. (2) Variable lease payments contain termination revenue of $15,371 and $857 for the year ending December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The 2021 termination fee revenue primarily related to a tenant that terminated its lease at the Company's Durham, New Hampshire industrial property. Future fixed rental receipts for leases, assuming no new or re-negotiated leases as of December 31, 2021 were as follows: Year ending December 31, 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 Thereafter Total Total $ 254,733 258,475 228,697 208,404 189,243 710,938 $ 1,850,490 The above minimum lease payments do not include reimbursements to be received from tenants for certain operating expenses and real estate taxes and do not include early termination payments provided for in certain leases, if not reasonably certain. Certain leases allow for the tenant to terminate the lease if the property is deemed obsolete, as defined, and upon payment of a termination fee to the landlord, as stipulated in the lease. In addition, certain leases provide the tenant with the right to purchase the leased property at fair market value or a stipulated price. Lessee The Company has ground leases, corporate leases for office space, and office equipment leases. All leases were classified as operating leases as of December 31, 2021. The leases have remaining lease terms of up to 39 years. Renewal periods are included in the lease term only when renewal is deemed to be reasonably certain. The lease term also includes periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise the termination option. The Company measures its lease payments by including fixed rental payments and variable rental payments that tie to an index or a rate, such as CPI. Minimum lease payments for leases that commenced before the date of adoption of ASC 842 were determined based on previous leases guidance under ASC 840. The Company recognizes lease expense for its operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease expense not included in the lease payment measurement as incurred. The accounting guidance under Topic 842 requires the Company to make certain assumptions and judgments in applying the guidance, including determining whether an arrangement includes a lease, determining the term of a lease when the contract has renewal or termination provisions and determining the discount rate. The Company determines whether an arrangement is or includes a lease at contract inception by evaluating whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. If the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from and can direct the use of, the identified asset for a period of time, the Company accounts for the contract as a lease. 82 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) As the Company does not know the rate implicit in the respective leases, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the transition date for such existing leases. The Company uses the information available at the lease commencement date to determine the discount rate for any new leases. The Company used a portfolio approach to determine its incremental borrowing rate. Lease contracts were grouped based on similar lease terms and economic environments in a manner in which the Company reasonably expects that the outcome from applying a portfolio approach does not differ materially from an individual lease approach. The Company estimated a collateralized discount rate for each portfolio of leases. Supplemental information related to operating leases is as follows: Weighted-average remaining lease term Operating leases (years) Weighted-average discount rate Operating leases The Year Ended December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 9.7 4.0 % 11.7 4.1 % The components of lease expense for the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were as follows: Income Statement Classification Fixed Variable Total 2021: Property operating General and administrative Total 2020: Property operating General and administrative Total $ $ $ $ 3,645 $ 1,380 5,025 $ 3,969 $ 1,348 5,317 $ 3 $ 70 73 $ 2 $ 105 107 $ 3,648 1,450 5,098 3,971 1,453 5,424 The Company recognized sublease income of $3,425, $3,756 and $3,764 in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The following table shows the Company's maturity analysis of its operating lease liabilities as of December 31, 2021: Year ending December 31, 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 Thereafter Total lease payments Less: Imputed interest Present value of lease liabilities (12) Concentration of Risk Operating Leases 5,046 5,290 5,199 5,204 4,174 11,174 36,087 (6,993) 29,094 $ $ The Company seeks to reduce its operating and leasing risks through the geographic diversification of its properties, tenant industry diversification, avoidance of dependency on a single asset and the creditworthiness of its tenants. For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, no single tenant represented greater than 10% of rental revenues. Cash and cash equivalent balances at certain institutions may exceed insurable amounts. The Company believes it mitigates this risk by investing in or through major financial institutions. 83 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) (13) Equity At-The-Market Offering Program. The Company maintains an At-The-Market offering program ("ATM program") under which the Company can issue common shares. The following table summarizes common share issuances under the ATM program: 2021 ATM Issuances 2020 ATM Issuances Year ended December 31, 2021 Shares Sold 1,052,800 Net Proceeds $13,532 Year ended December 31, 2020 Shares Sold 5,950,882 Net Proceeds $60,977 During 2021, the Company settled 4,990,717 common shares previously sold on a forward basis on the maturity date of the contract and received $53,567 of net proceeds. There were no forward settlements during 2020. As of December 31, 2021, an aggregate of 3,649,023 common shares were sold in forward sales contracts that had not been settled and had an aggregate settlement price of $38,544, which is subject to adjustment in accordance with the forward sales contracts. The Company expects to settle the forward sales contracts by the maturity dates in February 2022. In 2021, the Company amended the terms of its ATM offering program, under which the Company may, from time to time, sell up to $350,000 of common shares over the term of the program. As of December 31, 2021, commons shares with an aggregate value of $294,985 remain available for issuance under the ATM program. Underwritten Equity Offerings. During 2021, the Company entered into forward sales contracts for the sale of 16,000,000 common shares at a public offering price of $12.11 per common share in an underwritten equity offering that have not yet settled. Subject to the Company's rights to elect cash or net share settlement, the Company expects to settle the forward sales contracts by the maturity date in May 2022. As of December 31, 2021, the forward sales contracts had an aggregate settlement price $187,528, which is subject to adjustment in accordance with the forward sales contracts. During 2020, the Company issued 17,250,000 common shares at $9.60 per common share in an underwritten offering and generated net proceeds of approximately $164,000. The net proceeds were used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and pending the application of the proceeds were used to pay down all the then outstanding balance under the Company's revolving credit facility. Stock Based Compensation. In addition, during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company issued 949,573, 756,380 and 896,807 of its common shares, respectively, to certain employees and trustees. Typically, trustee share grants vest immediately. Employee share grants generally vest ratably, on anniversaries of the grant date, however, in certain situations vesting is cliff-based after a specific number of years and/or subject to meeting certain performance criteria. Share Repurchase Program. In July 2015, the Company's Board of Trustees authorized the repurchase of up to 10,000,000 common shares and increased this authorization by 10,000,000 in 2018. This share repurchase program has no expiration date. During 2020 and 2019, the Company repurchased and retired, 1,329,940 and 441,581 common shares, respectively, at an average price of, $8.28 and $8.13, respectively, per common share under the share repurchase program. During 2021, there were no share repurchases. As of December 31, 2021, 8,976,315 common shares remain available for repurchase under this authorization. The Company records a liability for repurchases that have not yet been settled as of the period end. 84 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) Series C Preferred Stock. The Company had 1,935,400 shares of Series C Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred”) outstanding at December 31, 2021. The shares have a dividend of $3.25 per share per annum, have a liquidation preference of $96,770, and the Company, if certain common share prices are achieved, can force conversion into common shares of the Company. As of December 31, 2021, each share was convertible into 2.4339 common shares. This conversion ratio may increase over time if the Company's common share dividend exceeds certain quarterly thresholds. If certain fundamental changes occur, holders may require the Company, in certain circumstances, to repurchase all or part of their shares of Series C Preferred. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain fundamental changes, the Company will, under certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional common shares or, in lieu thereof, may in certain circumstances elect to adjust the conversion rate upon the shares of Series C Preferred becoming convertible into shares of the public acquiring or surviving company. The Company may, at the Company's option, cause shares of Series C Preferred to be automatically converted into that number of common shares that are issuable at the then prevailing conversion rate. The Company may exercise its conversion right only if, at certain times, the closing price of the Company's common shares equals or exceeds 125% of the then prevailing conversion price of the Series C Preferred. Holders of shares of Series C Preferred generally have no voting rights, but will have limited voting rights if the Company fails to pay dividends for six or more quarters and under certain other circumstances. Upon conversion, the Company may choose to deliver the conversion value to investors in cash, common shares, or a combination of cash and common shares. A summary of the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to the Company's cash flow hedges is as follows: Twelve months ended December 31, 2021 2020 Balance at beginning of period Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications Amounts of loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense Balance at end of period $ $ (17,963) $ 6,755 4,950 (6,258) $ (1,928) (19,422) 3,387 (17,963) Noncontrolling Interests. In conjunction with several of the Company's acquisitions in prior years, sellers were issued limited partner interests in LCIF (“OP units”) OP units as a form of consideration. All OP units, other than OP units owned by the Company, are redeemable for common shares at certain times, at the option of the holders, and are generally not otherwise mandatorily redeemable by the Company. The OP units are classified as a component of permanent equity as the Company has determined that the OP units are not redeemable securities as defined by GAAP. Each OP unit is currently redeemable for approximately 1.13 common shares, subject to future adjustments. During 2021, LCIF redeemed and cancelled 1,598,906 OP units in connection with the disposition of the three properties. During 2021, 2020 and 2019, 185,270, 327,453 and 391,993 common shares, respectively, were issued by the Company, in connection with OP unit redemptions, for an aggregate value of $958, $1,614 and $1,655, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, there were approximately 775,000 OP units outstanding other than OP units owned by the Company. All OP units receive distributions in accordance with the LCIF partnership agreement. To the extent that the Company's dividend per common share is less than the stated distribution per OP unit per the LCIF partnership agreement, the distributions per OP unit are reduced by the percentage reduction in the Company's dividend per common share. No OP units have a liquidation preference. 85 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) The following discloses the effects of changes in the Company's ownership interests in its noncontrolling interests: Net Income Attributable to Shareholders and Transfers from Noncontrolling Interests 2021 2020 2019 Net income attributable to LXP Industrial Trust shareholders $ 382,648 $ 183,302 $ 279,910 Transfers (to) from noncontrolling interests: Increase (decrease) in additional paid-in-capital for reallocation of noncontrolling interests Increase in additional paid-in-capital for redemption of noncontrolling OP units 435 958 — (973) 1,614 1,655 Change from net income attributable to shareholders and transfers from noncontrolling interests $ 384,041 $ 184,916 $ 280,592 (14) Benefit Plans Non-vested share activity for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, is as follows: Balance at December 31, 2019 Granted Vested Forfeited Balance at December 31, 2020 Granted Vested Forfeited Balance at December 31, 2021 Number of Shares Weighted- Average Grant- Date Fair Value Per Share 2,941,412 $ 709,250 (613,504) (332,429) 2,704,729 899,328 (1,303,149) (10,264) 2,290,644 $ 7.30 7.77 8.80 5.30 7.27 7.85 7.82 10.09 7.17 During 2021 and 2020, the Company granted common shares to certain employees and trustees as follows: Performance Shares(1) Shares issued: Index Peer Grant date fair value per share:(2) Index Peer Non-Vested Common Shares:(3) Shares issued Grant date fair value 2021 2020 297,636 297,632 7.13 $ 6.23 $ 232,993 232,987 6.59 5.97 304,060 3,080 $ 243,270 2,581 $ $ $ (1) The shares vest based on the Company's total shareholder return growth after a three-year measurement period relative to an index and a group of Company peers.

During 2021, all of the 662,044 performance shares issued in 2018 vested. During 2020, 122,779 of the 452,737 performance shares issued in 2017 vested. (2) The fair value of grants was determined at the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model. (3) The shares vest ratably over a three-year service period. 86 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) In addition, during 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company issued 50,245, 47,130, and 67,226, respectively, of fully vested common shares to non-management members of the Company's Board of Trustees with a fair value of $587, $500, and $595, respectively.

The Company has established a trust for certain officers in which vested common shares granted for the benefit of the officers are deposited. The officers exert no control over the common shares in the trust and the common shares are available to the general creditors of the Company. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, there were 130,863 common shares in the trust. The Company sponsors a 401(k) retirement savings plan covering all eligible employees. The Company makes a discretionary matching contribution on a portion of employee participant salaries and, based on its profitability, may make an additional discretionary contribution at each fiscal year end to all eligible employees. These discretionary contributions are subject to vesting under a schedule providing for 25% annual vesting starting with the first year of employment and 100% vesting after four years of employment. Approximately $426, $393 and $403 of contributions are applicable to 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. During 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $6,554, $6,185 and $5,831, respectively, in expense relating to scheduled vesting of common share grants. (15) Related Party Transactions There were no related party transactions other than those disclosed elsewhere in the consolidated financial statements. (16) Income Taxes The provision for income taxes relates primarily to the taxable income of the Company's taxable REIT subsidiaries. The earnings, other than in taxable REIT subsidiaries, of the Company are not generally subject to federal income taxes at the Company level due to the REIT election made by the Company. Income taxes have been provided for on the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. The Company's provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 is summarized as follows: Current: Federal State and local 2021 2020 2019 $ $ (26) $ (1,267) (1,293) $ (173) $ (1,411) (1,584) $ (70) (1,309) (1,379) The income tax provision differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to pre-tax operating income as follows: Federal provision at statutory tax rate (21%) State and local taxes, net of federal benefit Other 2021 2020 2019 $ $ (35) $ — (1,258) (1,293) $ (195) $ (77) (1,312) (1,584) $ (73) (10) (1,296) (1,379) 87 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, the “other” amount is comprised primarily of state franchise taxes of $1,267, $1,314 and $1,289, respectively. A summary of the average taxable nature of the Company's common dividends for each of the years in the 3-year period ended December 31, 2021, is as follows: Total dividends per share Ordinary income Qualifying dividend Capital gain Return of capital $ $ $ 2021 0.430 65.89 % 0.10 % — 34.01 % 100.00 % 2020 0.420 95.1 % 0.6 % — 4.3 % 100.00 % 2019 0.485 61.07 % 0.22 % — 38.71 % 100.00 % A summary of the average taxable nature of the Company's dividend on shares of its Series C Preferred for each of the years in the 3-year period ended December 31, 2021, is as follows: Total dividends per share Ordinary income Qualifying dividend Capital gain Return of capital (17) Commitments and Contingencies $ $ $ 2021 3.25 99.84 % 0.16 % — — 100.00 % 2020 3.25 99.38 % 0.62 % — — 100.00 % 2019 3.25 99.64 % 0.36 % — — 100.00 % In addition to the commitments and contingencies disclosed elsewhere, the Company has the following commitments and contingencies. The Company is obligated under certain tenant leases, including its proportionate share for leases for non-consolidated entities, to fund the expansion of the underlying leased properties. The Company, under certain circumstances, may guarantee to tenants the completion of base building improvements and the payment of tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions on behalf of its subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had five ongoing consolidated development projects and expects to incur approximately $312,000 of costs in 2022, excluding noncontrolling interests' share, to substantially complete the construction of such projects. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had two consolidated and two non-consolidated joint ventures that own land parcels held for development. The Company is unable to estimate the timing of any required fundings for potential development projects on these parcels. The Company and LCIF are parties to a funding agreement under which the Company may be required to fund distributions made on account of LCIF's OP units. Pursuant to the funding agreement, the parties agreed that, if LCIF does not have sufficient cash available to make a quarterly distribution to its limited partners in an amount in accordance with the partnership agreement, LXP Industrial Trust will fund the shortfall. Payments under the agreement will be made in the form of loans to LCIF and will bear interest at prevailing rates as determined by the Company in its discretion but, no less than the applicable federal rate. LCIF's right to receive these loans will expire if no OP units remain outstanding and all such loans are repaid. No amounts have been advanced under this agreement. From time to time, the Company is directly or indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. 88 LXP INDUSTRIAL TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ($000, except share/unit data) (18) Supplemental Disclosure of Statement of Cash Flow Information Reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash: Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period Restricted cash at beginning of period 2021 2020 2019 $ 178,795 $ 122,666 $ 168,750 626 6,644 8,497 Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at beginning of period $ 179,421 $ 129,310 $ 177,247 Cash and cash equivalents at end of period Restricted cash at end of period $ 190,926 $ 178,795 $ 122,666 101 626 6,644 Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at end of period $ 191,027 $ 179,421 $ 129,310 In addition to disclosures discussed elsewhere, during 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company paid $44,234, $52,059 and $59,018, respectively, for interest and $1,569, $1,748 and $1,482, respectively, for income taxes.

Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, was made under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer who are our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, respectively. Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2021. Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021. Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our system of internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and the members of our Board of Trustees; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance that financial statements are fairly presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021. In assessing the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, management used as guidance the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based upon the assessment performed, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2021. Our independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, which audited the financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K that contain the disclosure required by this Item, independently assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Deloitte & Touche LLP has issued an unqualified report on the Company's internal control over financial reporting, which is included in “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during quarter ended December 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
