Explanation of Responses:

2. Represents common units of limited partnership interest ("OP Units") in Paramount Group Operating Partnership LP (the "Operating Partnership"). Each OP Unit is redeemable, beginning January 24, 2016, for cash equal to the then fair market value of one share of the Issuer's common stock, except that the Issuer may, at its election, acquire each OP Unit so presented for one share of common stock. These redemption rights have no expiration date.
3. OP Units issued in connection with a contribution agreement, pursuant to which the reporting person contributed interests in certain entities that comprised a portion of the Issuer's predecessor to the Operating Partnership.
4. LTIP Units issued as one-time founders' grants in connection with the Issuer's initial public offering. These LTIP Units were vested as of the date of issuance.
5. Conditioned upon minimum allocations to the capital accounts of the LTIP Units for federal income tax purposes, each vested LTIP Unit may be converted, at the election of the holder, into an OP Unit. Each OP Unit acquired upon conversion of a vested LTIP Unit may be presented for redemption, at the election of the holder, for cash equal to the then fair market value of one share of the Issuer's common stock, except that the Issuer may, at its election, acquire each OP Unit so presented for one share of common stock. LTIP Units are generally not convertible without the consent of the Issuer until two years from the date of the grant. The rights to convert vested LTIP Units into OP Units and redeem OP Units do not have expiration dates.
6. LTIP Units issued pursuant to the Issuer's 2014 Equity Incentive Plan in connection with the Issuer's initial public offering. The LTIP Units vest in five equal installments on each of November 24, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019, subject to continued employment.
