   Forward-Looking Statements  This presentation may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements provide Monmouth Real Estate Investment Corporation’s current expectations or forecasts of future events. Forward-looking statements include statements about Monmouth’s expectations, beliefs, intentions, plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, performance and underlying assumptions and other statements that are not historical facts. You can identify forward-looking statements by their use of forward-looking words, such as “may,” “will,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “should,” “seek,” or comparable terms, or the negative use of those words, but the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. The forward-looking statements are based on Monmouth’s beliefs, assumptions and expectations, taking into account all information currently available to it. Forward-looking statements are not predictions of future events. These beliefs, assumptions and expectations can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known to Monmouth. Some of these factors are described under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” as included in Monmouth’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2021, March 31,2021, and December 31, 2020, and its other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which are accessible on SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval website, or “EDGAR” at www.sec.gov. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with other cautionary statements that are included in this presentation and in Monmouth’s SEC filings. These and other risks, uncertainties and factors could cause Monmouth’s actual results to differ materially from those included in any forward-looking statements it makes. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. New risks and uncertainties arise over time, and it is not possible for Monmouth to predict those events or how they may affect it. Except as required by law, Monmouth is not obligated to, and does not intend to, update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, as events described or implied in such statements may not occur. This presentation may include references to “FFO” and “AFFO”, which are non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of “FFO” and “AFFO” to the most comparable GAAP financial measures is included in our most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and/or our Supplemental Information package as of June 30, 2021, furnished to shareholders on Form 8-K, and is available on our website at www.mreic.reit.FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: In connection with the proposed merger, investors are urged to read the joint proxy statement/prospectus filed by Monmouth and EQC with the SEC, and any other relevant documents filed with the SEC by Monmouth or EQC, because they contain important information.

 Win for MNR Shareholders. After nearly four months since MNR announced it was conducting a strategic review, MNR shareholders were rewarded in what we view as an attractive offer for its high-quality industrial portfolio supported by high exposure to investment grade tenants. We believe EQC is paying a full price for MNR assets…- BMO Capital Markets, May 5, 2021  We are encouraged by the announced merger… Additionally, the combined company will have a stronger financial position post merger, and is well positioned to fund the attractive BTS investment pipeline.- RBC Capital Markets, May 5, 2021  We think that shareholders would be well served to vote in favor of the agreement to combine with EQC because we think the resulting company will have the liquidity to grow a high quality, modern industrial portfolio and diversify away from its current tenant concentration, which will be reflected in the valuation of the combined entity.- Compass Point Research, July 22, 2021  We view the MNR merger as a smart strategy for EQC to transition into a better cash flow growth sector vs. office with a good quality…Further , the price paid by EQC appears reasonably fair based on a “back of the napkin” MNR analysis and considering a likely portfolio premium for industrial real estate.- Green Street Advisors, May 5, 2021  We like the combination of the MNR assets plus the EQC management and balance sheet…- Janney Montgomery Scott, July 26, 2021  We commend the Monmouth $MNR Board for reaching an agreement with $EQC that appears to be a great outcome for all shareholders. - Land & Buildings, May 5, 2021  1.

 Consideration of Starwood’s Unsolicited Offers    The MNR Board, and its financial and legal advisors, met on 7/12/21 to discuss Starwood’s offer of $18.70 in net cash consideration per share offer, which the MNR Board noted was lower than the $19.51 per share offer Starwood submitted during the strategic review process.The MNR Board, and its financial and legal advisors, met on 7/15/21 to further discuss Starwood’s offer of $18.70 in net cash consideration per share and determine what action to take in response. During the 7/15/21 meeting, Starwood amended its proposal to $18.88 in net cash consideration per share. Consequently, the MNR Board meeting was adjourned to consider the amended Starwood proposal.The MNR Board, and its financial and legal advisors, met on 7/21/21 to discuss Starwood’s amended offer of $18.88 in net cash consideration per share. The MNR Board unanimously determined that the pending EQC merger represented the best opportunity to maximize value for MNR shareholders and it unanimously reaffirmed its support for, and its recommendation in favor of, the pending merger with EQC.Among the factors considered by the MNR Board in favor of the EQC Merger:Opportunity for MNR stockholders to participate in the significant upside potential of the Combined Company and the anticipated long-term growth of the industrial sector.Expertise and proven track record of EQC’s executive team, led by accomplished investor Sam Zell as Chairman and David Helfand as CEO, to implement its growth strategy.EQC’s considerable financial resources, including ~$2.4 billion in cash, to execute on the Combined Company’s growth strategy.Significantly strengthened balance sheet following the payoff of $550 million of MNR Preferred and lower cost of capital and broadened access to liquidity going forward.MNR stockholders will benefit from a significant increase in market liquidity given the Combined Company’s expected ~$5.1 billion public equity market capitalization.MNR stockholders will continue to receive dividends during the pendency of the EQC merger, including MNR’s recently declared September common dividend of $0.18 per share. Following the closing of the EQC merger, the Combined Company anticipates paying a quarterly dividend to all stockholders as determined by EQC’s Board of Trustees.MNR common stockholders will receive EQC common shares in the merger on a tax efficient basis, thereby allowing MNR’s many long-term investors to defer unrealized gains that would otherwise be realized and taxed as a result of a cash sale.
