Explanation of Responses:
1. In March 2012, Retail Properties of America, Inc. effectuated a reverse split of its then outstanding common stock, redesignated its common stock as Class A common stock, and subsequently paid a stock dividend pursuant to which each outstanding share of Class A common stock received one share each of Class B-1, Class B-2, and Class B-3 common stock. The net result was each previously outstanding share of common stock converted into 1/10 of a share of each of Class A, Class B-1, Class B-2, and Class B-3 common stock and each option to buy a previously outstanding share of common stock being converted into an option to buy 1/10 of a share of each of Class A, Class B-1, Class B-2, and Class B-3 common stock. On October 5, 2012, the Class B-1 common stock automatically converted into Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis and options to buy shares of Class B-1 common stock automatically converted into options to buy an equal number of shares of Class A common stock.
2. Converted from shares of Class B-1 common stock into Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis.
3. The Class B-1 common stock automatically converted into Class A common stock on October 5, 2012 on a one-for-one basis.
4. Converted from an option to buy shares of Class B-1 common stock into an option to buy an equal number of shares of Class A common stock.
5. Options to purchase 50 and 100 shares became exercisable on July 1, 2004 and July 1, 2005, respectively.
