Ladies and Gentlemen:

City Office REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”) and the sole general partner of City Office REIT Operating Partnership, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), confirm their agreement with each of the several underwriters named in Schedule I hereto (the “Underwriters”) with respect to (i) the issuance and sale by the Company and the purchase by the Underwriters, acting severally and not jointly, of 6,000,000 shares (the “Firm Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) the grant by the Company to the Underwriters, acting severally and not jointly, of an option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Optional Shares”), as provided in Section (ii)(b). The Firm Shares and, if and to the extent such option is exercised, the Optional Shares, are collectively called the “Shares.” BMO Capital Markets Corp. has agreed to act as representative of the several Underwriters (in such capacity, the “Representative”) in connection with the offering and sale of the Shares.

At the Closing Time (as defined in Section (iii)(a) hereof), the Company will contribute the net proceeds from the offering of the Shares to the Operating Partnership in exchange for limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership (the “OP Units”), and the Operating Partnership will issue OP Units to the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “Subsidiary” or “Subsidiaries” shall mean those entities in which the Company or the Operating Partnership holds at least a 50% equity interest, each of which is listed on Schedule III hereto.

In consideration of the mutual agreements contained in this Underwriting Agreement (this “Agreement”), the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Underwriters, intending to be legally bound, hereby confirm their agreement as follows:

The Company has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-218419), which became effective on June 12, 2017 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act Regulations”), including a base prospectus (the “Base Prospectus”) relating to the securities of the Company that may be sold from time to time by the Company in accordance with Rule 415 of the Securities Act Regulations, and such amendments thereof as may have been required to the date of this Agreement. Such registration statement, including the amendments thereto, the exhibits thereto and any schedules thereto, in the form in which it became effective under the Securities Act and Securities Act Regulations, including all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein and any information deemed to be a part thereof at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430B of the Securities Act Regulations, is herein called the “Registration Statement.” Any registration statement, including any post-effective amendments thereto, filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the Securities Act Regulations is herein called the “Rule 462(b) Registration Statement” and, after such filing, the term “Registration Statement” shall include the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement.

The preliminary prospectus supplement dated October 2, 2019 (the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”) describing the Shares and the Offering, together with the Base Prospectus, is called the “Preliminary Prospectus,” and the Preliminary Prospectus and any other prospectus supplement to the Base Prospectus in preliminary form that describes the Shares and Offering and is used prior to the filing of the Prospectus (as defined below), together with the Base Prospectus, is called a “preliminary prospectus.” As used herein, the term “Prospectus” shall mean the final prospectus supplement to the Base Prospectus that describes the Shares and the Offering (the “Final Prospectus Supplement”), together with the Base Prospectus, in the form first used by the Underwriters to confirm the sales of the Shares or in the form first made available to the Underwriters by the Company to meet requests of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 of the Securities Act Regulations. For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing, or any “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act Regulations (“Rule 405”)), shall be deemed to include the copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system or any successor system (“XXXXX”).

As used in this Agreement:

“Applicable Time” means 4:05 p.m., New York City time, on October 2, 2019 or such other time as agreed by the Company and the Representative.

“Issuer General Use Free Writing Prospectus” means any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus that is intended for general distribution to prospective investors (other than a “bona fide electronic road show,” as defined in Rule 433 (the “Bona Fide Electronic Road Show”)), as evidenced by its being specified in Schedule IV hereto.

furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use therein. For purposes of this Agreement, the only information so furnished shall be the first and the second sentences of the fourth paragraph, the twelfth paragraph relating to stabilization and short sales, in each case, under the caption “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)” contained in the Prospectus (collectively, the “Underwriter Information”).

(d) No Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicts or will conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus and any preliminary prospectus or other prospectus deemed to be a part thereof that has not been superseded or modified. The Company has made available a Bona Fide Electronic Road Show in compliance with Rule 433(d)(8)(ii) such that no filing of any “road show” (as defined in Rule 433(h)) is required in connection with the Offering.

(j) Prior to the Closing Time, the Company will issue no press release or other communications directly or indirectly and hold no press conference with respect to the Offering of the Shares without the prior written consent of the Representative unless in the judgment of the Company, after consultation with its counsel and after notification to the Representative, such press release or communication is required by law.

(k) For a period of three years from the date hereof, the Company will deliver to the Representative: (i) a copy of each report or document, including, without limitation, reports on Forms 8-K, 10-K and 10-Q (or such similar forms as may be designated by the Commission), proxy statements, registration statements and any exhibits thereto, filed or furnished to the Commission or any securities exchange or FINRA, on the date each such report or document is so filed or furnished; (ii) as soon as practicable, copies of any reports or communications (financial or other) of the Company mailed to its securityholders; and (iii) every material press release in respect of the Company or its affairs that is released or prepared by the Company; provided, however, that no reports or documents need to be furnished to the extent they have been filed with the Commission and are publicly available on XXXXX.

(l) During the course of the distribution of the Shares, each of the Company, the Operating Partnership, the Subsidiaries will not and the Company shall cause their respective officers and directors not to, take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to, or that could reasonably be expected to, cause or result in stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Common Stock or to facilitate the sale or resale of the Shares.

(m) During a period of 60 days from the date of the Prospectus (the “Lock Up Period”), the Company will not, without the prior written consent of the Representative, (i) directly or indirectly, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock (“Restricted Securities”), (ii) enter into any swap or any other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of Common Stock, whether any such swap or transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, (iii) file any registration statement with the Commission relating to the offering of any shares of Common Stock, any options or warrants to acquire Restricted Securities or (iv) publicly announce an intention to effect any transaction

specified in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above.

(n) The Company will use its best efforts to effect the listing of the Shares on the NYSE prior to the Closing Time and maintain the listing of the Shares on the NYSE.

(o) The Company will use its best efforts to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code for its taxable year ending December 31, 2019, and the Company will use its best efforts to continue to qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Code unless the board of directors of the Company determines that it is no longer in the best interests of the Company to continue to qualify as REIT.

(p) The Company will promptly notify the Representative if the Company ceases to be an Emerging Growth Company at any time prior to the later of (i) completion of the distribution of the Securities within the meaning of the Securities Act and (ii) completion of the 60-day restricted period referred to in Section (iv)(m).

(vi) Conditions of Underwriters’ Obligations. The obligation of each Underwriter to purchase and pay for the Firm Shares that it has agreed to purchase hereunder on the Closing Time, and to purchase and pay for any Optional Shares as to which it exercises its right to purchase under Section (ii)(b) on a Date of Delivery, is subject at the date hereof, the Closing Time and any Date of Delivery to the continuing accuracy and fulfillment of the representations and warranties of the Company and the Operating Partnership to the performance by the Company and the Operating Partnership of their covenants and obligations hereunder, and to the following additional conditions:

(e) The Representative shall have received a copy of an executed Lock-up Agreement in the form of Exhibit C hereto from each of the persons listed in Schedule V hereto, and the Company shall have issued appropriate stop transfer instructions to the transfer agent and shall have delivered a copy of such instructions to the Representative.

(f) At the Closing Time, there shall not have been, since the date hereof or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, and the Representative shall have received a certificate of the chief executive officer or the president of the Company, of the chief financial or chief accounting officer of the Company and of the Company, in its capacity as the General Partner of the Operating Partnership, dated the Closing Time, to the effect that (i) there has been no such material adverse change, (ii) the representations and warranties of the Company and the Operating Partnership in this Agreement are true and correct with the same force and effect as though expressly made at and as of the Closing Time, (iii) the Company and the Operating Partnership has complied with all agreements and satisfied all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Time and (iv) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement under the Securities Act has been issued, no order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus has been issued and no proceedings for any of those purposes have been instituted, to their knowledge, are pending or contemplated. In addition, the Representative shall have received a certificate of the chief financial officer of the Company (for the Company and for the Company in its capacity as the General Partner of the Operating Partnership) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Underwriters regarding certain matters disclosed in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

(vii) Indemnification.

(a) The Company and the Operating Partnership, on a joint and several basis, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its directors, officers and selling agents and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act as follows:

1. against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Underwriter or any such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (ii) with respect to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (iii) with respect to any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made; provided, however, that the Company and the Operating Partnership will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company and the Operating Partnership by or through the Representative specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in Section (vii) hereof; and

2. to reimburse upon demand for any legal or other out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter or such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage or liability, action or proceeding or in responding to a subpoena or governmental inquiry related to the offering of the Shares, whether or not such Underwriter or controlling person is a party to any action or proceeding. In the event that it is finally judicially determined that the Underwriters were not entitled to receive payments for legal and other expenses pursuant to this subparagraph, the Underwriters will promptly return all sums that had been advanced pursuant hereto.

(b) Each Underwriter severally and not jointly will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Operating Partnership, each of their respective directors, each of its officers who have signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company and the Operating Partnership within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company, or the Operating Partnership or any such director, officer, or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (ii) with respect to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (iii) with respect to any preliminary

prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made; and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or the Operating Partnership or any such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding; provided, however, that each Underwriter will be liable in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission has been made in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus or such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or the Operating Partnership by or through the Representative specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter the Underwriter Information. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Underwriter may otherwise have:

(c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Section (vii), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing. No indemnification provided for in Section (vii)(a) or (b) hereof shall be available to any party who shall fail to give notice as provided in this Section (vii)(c) if the party to whom notice was not given was unaware of the proceeding to which such notice would have related and was materially prejudiced by the failure to give such notice, but the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party or parties from any liability which it or they may have to the indemnified party for contribution or otherwise than on account of the provisions of Section (vii)(a) or (b) hereof. In case any such proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party and shall pay as incurred the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall pay as incurred (or within 30 days of presentation) the fees and expenses of the counsel retained by the indemnified party in the event (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them or (iii) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense and employ counsel acceptable to the indemnified party within a reasonable period of time after notice of commencement of the action. Such firm shall be designated in writing by you in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section (vii)(a) or (b) hereof and by the Company in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section (vii)(c) hereof. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. In addition, the indemnifying party will not,

without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such claim, action or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action or proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

(d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in this Section (vii) is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section (vii)(a) or (b) hereof in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, from the offering of the Shares. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Operating Partnership bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Operating Partnership on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and the Operating Partnership and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section (vii)(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section (vii)(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as

a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section (vii)(d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section (vii)(d), (i) no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the underwriting discounts and commissions applicable to the Shares purchased by such Underwriter, and (ii) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations in this Section (vii)(d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

(e) In any proceeding relating to the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus or any supplement or amendment thereto, each party against whom contribution may be sought under this Section (vii) hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of (i) the federal courts of the United States of America located in the City and County of New York, Borough of Manhattan and (ii) the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York, Borough of Manhattan (collectively, the “Specified Courts”), agrees that process issuing from such courts may be served upon it by any other contributing party and consents to the service of such process and agrees that any other contributing party may join it as an additional defendant in any such proceeding in which such other contributing party is a party.

(f) Any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses for which an indemnified party is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this Section (vii) shall be paid by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are incurred. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section (vii) and the representations and warranties of the Company and the Operating Partnership set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, its directors or officers or any person controlling any Underwriter, the Company or the Operating Partnership, its directors or officers or any persons controlling the Company or the Operating Partnership, (ii) acceptance of any Shares and payment therefor hereunder, and (iii) any termination of this Agreement. A successor to any Underwriter, its directors or officers or any person controlling any Underwriter, or to the Company or the Operating Partnership, its directors or officers, or any person controlling the Company or the Operating Partnership, shall be entitled to the benefits of the indemnity, contribution and reimbursement agreements contained in this Section (vii).

(viii) Default by Underwriters. If on a Date of Delivery, any Underwriter shall fail to purchase and pay for the portion of the Shares which such Underwriter has agreed to purchase and pay for on such date (otherwise than by reason of any default on the part of the Company or the Operating Partnership), BMO Capital Markets Corp., as Representative of the Underwriters, shall use their reasonable efforts to procure within 36 hours thereafter one or more of the other Underwriters, or any others, to purchase from the Company and the Operating Partnership, such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms set forth herein, the Shares which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters failed to purchase. If during such 36 hours BMO Capital Markets Corp., as such Representative, shall not have procured such other Underwriters, or any others, to purchase the Shares agreed to be purchased by the defaulting Underwriter or

Underwriters, then (a) if the aggregate number of shares with respect to which such default shall occur does not exceed 10% of the Shares to be purchased on the Date of Delivery, the other Underwriters shall be obligated, severally, in proportion to the respective numbers of Shares which they are obligated to purchase hereunder, to purchase the Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters failed to purchase, or (b) if the aggregate number of shares of Shares with respect to which such default shall occur exceeds 10% of the Shares to be purchased on Date of Delivery, the Company and the Operating Partnership, or BMO Capital Markets Corp., as the Representative of the Underwriters will have the right, by written notice given within the next 36-hour period to the parties to this Agreement, to terminate this Agreement without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters or of the Company or the Operating Partnership, except to the extent provided in Sections (v) and (vii) hereof. In the event of a default by any Underwriter or Underwriters, as set forth in this Section (viii), the Date of Delivery may be postponed for such period, not exceeding seven days, as BMO Capital Markets Corp., as Representative, may determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or in the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. The term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for a defaulting Underwriter. Any action taken under this Section (viii) shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

(ix) Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. Except as the context otherwise requires, all representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to be representations, warranties and agreements at the Closing Time and any Date of Delivery. All such representations, warranties and agreements of the Underwriters, the Company and the Operating Partnership, including, without limitation, the indemnity and contribution agreements contained in Sections (vii) and (viii) hereof and the agreements contained in Sections (v) and (x) hereof, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriter or any controlling person and (ii) delivery of and payment for the Shares.

(x) Effective Date of This Agreement and Termination Hereof.

(a) This Agreement shall become effective on the date hereof, on the first business day following the Applicable Time or at the time of the public offering by the Underwriters of the Shares, whichever is earlier, except that the provisions of Sections (v), (vii), (viii) and (x) hereof shall be effective upon execution hereof. The time of the public offering, for the purpose of this Section (x), shall mean the time when any of the Shares are first released by the Underwriters for offering by dealers. The Representative, the Company and the Operating Partnership may prevent the provisions of this Agreement (other than those contained in Sections (v), (vii), (viii) and (x)) from becoming effective without liability of any party to any other party, except as noted below, by giving the notice indicated in Section (x)(c) hereof before the time the other provisions of this Agreement become effective.

(b) The Representative may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company and the Operating Partnership, at any time at or prior to the Closing Time (i) if there has been, in the judgment of the Representative, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the

General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or the international financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representative, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the completion of the Offering or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Securities, or (iii) if trading in any securities of the Company has been suspended or materially limited by the Commission or the NYSE, or (iv) if trading generally on the NYSE American LLC or the NYSE or in the Nasdaq Global Market has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices have been required, by any of said exchanges or by order of the Commission, FINRA or any other governmental authority, or (v) a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States or with respect to Clearstream or Euroclear systems in Europe, or (vi) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either Federal or New York authorities.
