EXPLANATORY NOTE

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Trustees of LXP Industrial Trust (the “Trust”) adopted the LXP Industrial Trust 2022 Equity-Based Award Plan (the “2022 Plan”) on April 1, 2022, subject to approval by the Trust’s holders of shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.0001 per share, classified as common stock (“Common Shares”) (such holders, the “Shareholders”). At the Trust’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders that was held on May 24, 2022 (the “Effective Date”), the Shareholders approved and adopted the 2022 Plan. The 2022 Plan replaces the Lexington Realty Trust Amended and Restated 2011 Equity-Based Award Plan (the “2011 Plan”). The 2011 Plan and the Trust’s authority to grant new awards thereunder terminated upon Shareholder approval of the 2022 Plan on the Effective Date. The 2022 Plan provides that, from the Effective Date, a total of 4,000,000 Common Shares will be available for issuance under the 2022 Plan (plus any Common Shares subject to outstanding awards under the 2011 Plan).

The purpose of this registration statement (this “Registration Statement”) is to register the following for issuance under the 2022 Plan: (a) the 4,000,000 Common Shares being registered for the first time pursuant to the 2022 Plan and (b) the 2,070,924 Common Shares that were subject to outstanding awards under the 2011 Plan on the Effective Date (the “2011 Plan Shares Subject to Outstanding Awards”). The 2011 Plan Shares Subject to Outstanding Awards were previously registered on a Registration Statement on Form S-8, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on March 2, 2018 (Registration Statement No. 333-223399) (the “2018 Registration Statement”). Effective as of July 5, 2022, the Trust terminated the offering that included the 2011 Plan Shares Subject to Outstanding Awards under the 2018 Registration Statement by filing a post-effective amendment to the 2018 Registration Statement deregistering Common Shares that remained unissued thereunder as of the date of the post-effective amendment to the 2018 Registration Statement.

In addition, all documents filed by the Trust with the Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14, and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) on or after the date of this Registration Statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents with the Commission. Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated herein by reference shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement herein or in any other subsequently filed document that also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.

Item 4. Description of Securities.

Not applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Not applicable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

The Trust is a real estate investment trust, or REIT, formed under the laws of the State of Maryland. The Maryland REIT Law and Section 2-418 of the Maryland General Corporation Law generally permit indemnification of any trustee or officer made a party to any proceedings by reason of service as a trustee or officer unless it is established that (i) the act or omission of such person was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty; (ii) such person actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services; or (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, such person had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. The indemnity may include judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by the trustee or officer in connection with the proceeding, but if the proceeding is one by or in the right of the company, indemnification is not permitted with respect to any proceeding in which the trustee or officer has been adjudged to be liable to the company, or if the proceeding is one charging improper personal benefit to the trustee or officer, whether or not involving action in the trustee’s or officer's official capacity, indemnification of the trustee or officer is not permitted if the trustee or officer was adjudged to be liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received, unless in either case a court orders indemnification and then only for expenses. The termination of any proceeding by conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, or any entry of an order of probation prior to judgment, creates a rebuttable presumption that the trustee or officer did not meet the requisite standard of conduct required for permitted indemnification. The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order or settlement, however, does not create a presumption that the trustee or officer failed to meet the requisite standard of conduct for permitted indemnification.

The Trust’s Declaration of Trust limits the liability of its trustees and officers for money damages, except for liability resulting from:

· actual receipt of an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services; or

· a final judgment based upon a finding of active and deliberate dishonesty by the trustees or officers that was material to the cause of action adjudicated.

The Trust’s Declaration of Trust obligates the Trust to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, to indemnify, and to pay or reimburse reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding to, any trustees or officers, whether serving the Trust or at its request any other entity, who is made a party to a proceeding by reason of his or her service in that capacity. The Trust’s Declaration of Trust permits the Trust to indemnify and advance expenses to any employee or agent of the Trust, whether serving the Trust or at its request any other entity.

Maryland law requires the Trust, as a condition to advancing expenses, to obtain:

· a written affirmation by the trustee or officer of his or her good faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification; and

· a written undertaking to repay the amount reimbursed if the standard of conduct is not met.

The Trust has purchased liability insurance for its trustees and officers, which also covers the Trust’s subsidiaries. The Trust has also entered into indemnification agreements with certain officers and trustees for the purpose of indemnifying such persons from certain claims and actions in their capacities as such.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to trustees, directors, officers or persons controlling the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Trust has been informed that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

The foregoing reference is necessarily subject to the complete text of the Trust’s declaration of trust and the statutes referred to above and is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto.

Item 9. Undertakings.

(a) The Trust hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Filing Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement; and

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Trust pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned Trust hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Trust’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Trust pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Trust has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Trust of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Trust in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Trust will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act, the Trust certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of New York, State of New York, on July 5, 2022.

     Re:     Registration Statement on Form S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have served as Maryland counsel to LXP Industrial Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Company”), in connection with certain matters of Maryland law arising out of the issuance of up to 6,070,924 shares (the “Shares”) of beneficial interest, par value $.0001 per share, classified as common stock of the Company (the “Common Shares”), pursuant to the LXP Industrial Trust 2022 Equity-Based Award Plan, effective May 24, 2022 (the “Plan”), including up to 2,070,924 Shares previously issuable under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2011 Equity-Based Award Plan (the “2011 Plan”) and now issuable under the Plan, covered by the above-referenced Registration Statement, and all amendments thereto (the “Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”).

In connection with our representation of the Company, and as a basis for the opinion hereinafter set forth, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the following documents (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Documents”):
