If you were a stockholder of record at the close of business on March 3, 2025, your shares may be voted at the Annual Meeting, including
any postponements or adjournments of the Annual Meeting. In order to attend the virtual meeting, you will need your control number that

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS & PROXY STATEMENT 2025
PROXY MATERIALS & ANNUAL MEETING
Information About the Proxy Materials
The board of directors (the “Board”) of InvenTrust Properties Corp., a Maryland corporation (referred to herein as the “Company,” “InvenTrust,” “we,”
“our” or “us”), is furnishing the Notice of Annual Meeting, proxy statement and proxy card to you, and to all stockholders of record as of the close of
business on March 3, 2025 because the Board is soliciting your proxy to vote at the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual
Meeting”), and at any postponements or adjournments thereof.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has adopted rules permitting the electronic delivery of proxy materials. In accordance with those
rules, we are primarily furnishing proxy materials to our stockholders via the Internet, rather than mailing paper copies of the materials. Internet
distribution of the proxy materials is designed to expedite receipt by stockholders and lower costs and the environmental impact of the Annual
Meeting. Beginning on or about March 21, 2025, we will mail a Notice of Annual Meeting and Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials
(“Notice”) to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 3, 2025, which will contain instructions on how to access and review
proxy materials, including our proxy statement and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and how to submit
proxies via the Internet or by telephone. If you received a Notice but would like to submit your proxy by mail or request paper copies of our proxy
materials going forward, you may still do so by following the instructions described in the Notice.
Choosing to receive your proxy materials over the Internet will help reduce the environmental impact and costs associated with the printing and
mailing of the proxy materials to you. Unless you affirmatively elect to receive paper copies of our proxy materials in the future by following the
instructions included in the Notice, you will continue to receive a Notice directing you to a website for electronic access to our proxy materials.
On or about March 21, 2025, we will also begin mailing a full set of proxy materials to certain stockholders who previously requested a paper copy of
the proxy materials.
If you own shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “common stock”), of the Company in more than one account, such as
individually or jointly with your spouse, you may receive more than one Notice or set of these materials. Please make sure to authorize a proxy to
vote all of your shares in all your accounts.
Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials
Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on May 6, 2025. This proxy
statement, the proxy card and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 are available at www.proxyvote.com.
Information About the Annual Meeting
The Annual Meeting will be held on May 6, 2025, beginning at 9:00 a.m., Central Time. The Annual Meeting will be a “virtual meeting” of
stockholders held exclusively online via live webcast. We welcome and encourage you to attend. Please note that only stockholders of record as of
the close of business on March 3, 2025 (the “record date”) will be permitted to attend and ask questions during the Annual Meeting. Questions
pertinent to meeting matters will be answered during the Annual Meeting, subject to time limitations. In order to attend the virtual meeting, you will
need your control number that will be supplied to all stockholders via the proxy card or voting instructions form. During the Annual Meeting, you will
be allowed to vote your shares within the online portal as well as submit questions. The online portal will open 60 minutes before the beginning of the
Annual Meeting. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the meeting start time.
Rules governing the conduct of the Annual Meeting will be posted on the virtual meeting platform along with an agenda. We reserve the right to eject
an attendee for failure to comply with reasonable requests or for not following the rules of conduct for the meeting.
We reserve the right to edit profanity or other inappropriate language and to exclude questions regarding topics that are not pertinent to meeting
matters or company business. If we receive substantially similar questions, we may group questions together and provide a single response to avoid
repetition.
If you encounter any difficulties while accessing the virtual meeting during the check-in or meeting time, a technical assistance phone number will be
made available on the virtual meeting registration page 15 minutes prior to the start time of the Annual Meeting.

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS & PROXY STATEMENT 2025
PROXY MATERIALS & ANNUAL MEETING
Information About Voting
You will have one vote for each share of common stock held as of the close of business on March 3, 2025, which is the record date for the Annual
Meeting. As of March 3, 2025, there were 77,460,276 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. There is no cumulative voting.
Record Holders
If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare Inc., you are, with respect to those shares, the stockholder
of record or record holder. Record holders may vote while in attendance at the virtual Annual Meeting or by granting a proxy to vote on each of the
proposals. You may authorize a proxy to vote your shares in any of the following ways:
Img 2.jpg
MAIL: if you received a hard copy proxy card, you may complete and return it as instructed
on the proxy card. If you received a Notice, you may request a proxy card at any time by
following the instructions on the Notice. You may then complete the proxy card and return it
by mail as instructed on the proxy card in the pre-addressed postage paid envelope provided.
If mailed, your completed and signed proxy card must be received by May 5, 2025;
Img 3.jpg
TELEPHONE: dial 1-800-690-6903 any time prior to 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 5,

Img 4.jpg
INTERNET: go to www.proxyvote.com any time prior to 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 5,
2025, with your Notice in hand and follow the instructions to obtain your records and to create
an electronic voting instruction form.
If you are a record holder and grant a proxy, you may nevertheless revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised by: (1) sending written notice
to us at 3025 Highland Parkway, Suite 350, Downers Grove, Illinois 60515, Attention: Corporate Secretary; (2) providing us with a properly executed,
later-dated proxy; or (3) attending the virtual Annual Meeting and voting your shares while in attendance. Merely attending the Annual Meeting,
without further action, will not revoke your proxy.
Beneficial Owners
If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by another nominee, you are the beneficial owner of shares held in street name, and the Notice (or
in some cases, a full set of proxy materials) is being forwarded to you automatically, along with instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee.
As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your shares and are also invited to attend the
Annual Meeting. Your broker, bank or other nominee has provided voting instructions for you to use in directing how to vote your shares. If you do
not provide specific voting instructions by the deadline set forth in the materials you receive from your broker, bank or other nominee, your broker,
bank or other nominee can vote your shares with respect to “discretionary” items, but not with respect to “non-discretionary” items. See “Withhold,
Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes” below for more information about broker non-votes. Beneficial owners who desire to revoke a previously
submitted proxy should contact their broker, bank, or other nominee for instructions.

PROXY MATERIALS & ANNUAL MEETING
Information Regarding Tabulation of the Vote
Broadridge Investor Communication Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) or its designee will act as the inspector of election and will count the votes.
Information About Items to be Voted on and Vote Necessary for Action to be Taken
At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will consider and vote upon the following matters, and such other matters as may properly come before the
Annual Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof:
1
PROPOSAL NO. 1: Election of eight directors, to hold office until the next annual meeting of
stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualify. A plurality of all the
votes cast at the Annual Meeting shall be sufficient to elect a director. Each share may be
voted for as many individuals as there are directors to be elected and for whose election the
holder is entitled to vote. The Board unanimously recommends a vote FOR each of the
nominees for director.
2
PROPOSAL NO. 2: Ratification of the selection of KPMG LLP as our independent registered
public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025. A majority of the votes cast at
the Annual Meeting shall be sufficient to approve Proposal No. 2. The Board unanimously
recommends a vote FOR the ratification of KPMG LLP as our independent registered
public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025.
3
PROPOSAL NO. 3: Approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of a resolution approving the
compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant
to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules (“say-on-pay”). A majority of the votes cast at the
Annual Meeting shall be sufficient to approve Proposal No. 3. The Board unanimously
recommends a vote FOR the approval on a non-binding, advisory basis, of a
resolution approving the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed
herein pursuant to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules.
If you return your signed proxy but do not indicate how your shares should be voted, they will be voted “FOR” each director in Proposal No. 1, “FOR”
Proposal No. 2, and “FOR” Proposal No. 3, in accordance with the Board’s recommendation.

Quorum Requirement
Presence at the Annual Meeting, virtually or by proxy, of stockholders entitled to cast a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast at the Annual
Meeting on any matter shall constitute a quorum. There must be a quorum present in order for us to conduct business at the Annual Meeting.
Withhold, Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes
A “withhold” vote with respect to the election of directors will be considered present for purposes of determining a quorum. Because a plurality of all
the votes cast at the Annual Meeting shall be sufficient to elect a director (meaning that the eight director nominees who receive the highest number
of “for” votes will be elected) and each of our directors is running unopposed, a “withhold” vote will have no effect with respect to the outcome of the
election of directors.
An “abstain” vote with respect to the other proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting will be considered present for purposes of determining a
quorum, but is not considered a vote cast with respect to such proposals. Therefore, an abstention will not have any effect on the outcome of the
vote on the ratification of appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal No. 2) or  the approval of the say-on-pay
(Proposal No. 3).
A broker non-vote is considered present for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists. A “broker non-vote” occurs if your shares are not
registered in your name and you do not provide the record holder of your shares (usually a bank, broker, or other nominee) with voting instructions
on a matter and the record holder is not permitted to vote on the matter without instructions from you under applicable rules of the New York Stock
Exchange (“NYSE”). The election of directors (Proposal No. 1) and say-on-pay (Proposal No. 3) are considered “non-discretionary” items, so if you
do not provide instructions to the holder of record, your shares will be treated as broker non-votes, will not be considered as a “vote cast” and will
have no effect on the outcome of the vote on such proposals. The ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm
(Proposal No. 2) is a “discretionary” or routine item under NYSE rules. As a result, the shares for which instructions are not provided to the holder of
record will not be treated as broker non-votes and brokers who do not receive instructions as to how to vote on Proposal No. 2 generally may vote on
this matter in their discretion. Thus, we do not expect any broker non-votes on this proposal.
Costs of Soliciting Proxies
We will bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with soliciting proxies. Our directors and executive officers may solicit proxies by mail,
personal contact, letter, telephone, facsimile or other electronic means. These individuals will not receive any additional compensation for these
activities but may be reimbursed by us for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. In addition, Broadridge will collect and solicit proxies on our
behalf. We will pay Broadridge fees that we expect will not exceed $150,000 and any out-of-pocket expenses for collecting and soliciting proxies.
Other Matters
At this time, no other matters are being presented for your consideration at the Annual Meeting. Generally, no business aside from the items
discussed in this proxy statement may be transacted at the meeting. If, however, any other matter properly comes before the Annual Meeting as
determined by the chair of the meeting, your proxies are authorized to act on the proposal at their discretion.

PROXY MATERIALS & ANNUAL MEETING
Householding
Only one Notice or copy of this proxy statement and the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K have been sent to certain stockholders who share a
single address, unless any stockholder residing at that address has given contrary instructions. This procedure, referred to as householding, reduces
the volume of duplicate information stockholders receive and reduces mailing and printing costs. Additional copies of the Notice, this proxy statement
or our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, will be furnished to you upon request, without charge, by writing us at: 
c/o InvenTrust Properties Corp., 3025 Highland Parkway, Suite 350, Downers Grove, Illinois 60515, Attention: Investor Relations, by emailing us at
investorrelations@inventrustproperties.com or by calling us at (855) 377-0510.
If you share an address with another stockholder and the two of you would like to receive only a single set of our annual disclosure documents,
please contact us by writing us at: c/o InvenTrust Properties Corp., 3025 Highland Parkway, Suite 350, Downers Grove, Illinois 60515, Attention:
Investor Relations, or by emailing us at investorrelations@inventrustproperties.com, or, if a bank, broker or other nominee holds your shares, please
contact your bank, broker or other nominee directly.

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS & PROXY STATEMENT 2025
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES
Corporate Governance Profile
Our corporate governance is structured in a manner that the Board believes closely aligns the Company’s interests with those of our stockholders.
Notable features of our corporate governance structure include the following:
Each of our directors being subject to annual elections;
of the eight nominees, seven have been determined by us to be independent for purposes of the NYSE’s corporate governance listing standards
and the applicable rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”);
all of the members of our Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees are independent; we have determined
that at least two of our directors qualify as an ‘‘audit committee financial expert’’ as defined by the SEC;
our stockholders owning at least 3% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock continuously for at least three years may nominate and
add director candidates in the Company’s proxy materials for annual meetings pursuant to, and subject to the provisions of, the proxy access
provision in our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws (our “Byalws”);
our directors have a range of skills, experience, and backgrounds;
we opted out of the provisions of Maryland law that permits the Board to classify itself without stockholder approval;
an Equity Retention Policy that requires each director, our CEO and other NEOs, and such other executive officers selected by our CEO and
compensation committee, to own a certain amount of our equity;
our stockholders, by a majority vote of shares entitled to be cast on the matter, may call a special meeting of stockholders;
our Board and stockholders have the concurrent power to adopt, alter or repeal any provision of our Bylaws and to make new bylaws;
we have opted out of the control share and business combination provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law (the “MGCL”), and our
Bylaws provide that we may not opt-in to these provisions without the approval of our stockholders; and
we do not have a stockholder rights plan and we will not adopt one without stockholder approval or stockholder ratification within 12 months of
adoption of such plan.
Our Charter (“Charter”) and Bylaws provide that the number of directors constituting the Board may be increased or decreased by a majority vote of
the entire Board, provided the number of directors may not be greater than 11 and may not be decreased to fewer than the minimum number
required under the MGCL, which currently is one director. The tenure of office of a director will not be affected by any decrease in the number of
directors.
Our Bylaws provide that any vacancy on the Board for any cause other than an increase in the number of directors may be filled by a majority of the
remaining directors, even if such majority is less than a quorum, any vacancy in the number of directors created by an increase in the number of
directors may be filled by a majority vote of the entire Board, and any directors elected to fill a vacancy will hold office until the next annual meeting
of stockholders and until a successor is duly elected and qualifies.

Corporate Governance Guidelines
Our Board has adopted corporate governance guidelines (the “Corporate Governance Guidelines”) to provide a transparent framework for the
effective governance of InvenTrust. The Corporate Governance Guidelines are available on our website at www.inventrustproperties.com through
the “Investors – Governance – Governance Documents & Policies” tab. In addition, printed copies of the Corporate Governance Guidelines are
available to any stockholder, without charge, by writing us at InvenTrust Properties Corp., 3025 Highland Parkway, Suite 350, Downers Grove,
Illinois 60515, Attention: Investor Relations.
Corporate Culture and Strategy
Our employees are our greatest asset and the foundation for our success. Together, we focus on building an inclusive culture where innovative
thinking is valued, collaboration is essential, and communicating the "why" is a necessity. We are committed to creating a corporate culture
characterized by high levels of employee engagement, growth and development, and health and wellness. We seek to attract and retain talented
professionals who provide a wide range of opinions and experiences to drive our business forward. As of December 31, 2024, we had 101 full-time
employees.
Our Human Capital strategy is focused on talent management. The basis for hiring, development, training, compensation and advancement are
qualifications, performance, skills and experience. We believe our employees are fairly compensated, and it is our policy to make employment or
compensation decisions without regard to gender, race, ethnicity, or other protected characteristics. All of our employees are offered a
comprehensive benefits package, including, but not limited to, paid time off and parental leave, medical, dental and vision insurance, disability
insurance, life insurance, 401(k) matching, tuition reimbursement, flexible Fridays and remote work flexibility.
Employee engagement is critical to our success. We believe in fostering a highly engaged inclusive environment which drives growth and
productivity. We believe that our heightened focus on employee development and health and wellness creates a more engaged workforce. In 2024,
we were named one of Chicago's Top Workplaces by The Chicago Tribune for the third year in a row. We believe that the more engaged our
employees are the more likely productivity will increase and drive empowerment throughout the organization for our employees to act like owners.
Our hybrid work model provides an opportunity for employees to balance work and life, whether in the office or at home. We also host monthly
events focused on employee education, health and wellness, engagement activities, and giving back to our communities. Our events consist of
company-wide executive-led meetings to stay connected with our employees, wellness competitions, food trucks, game days, happy hours, and
charity events serving our communities. We are proud that 100% of our employees participated in charitable events giving back to our communities
in 2024. Our Flexible Fridays program enables our employees to balance work and life, focusing on mental health as well as giving back to our
communities through charitable endeavors.
We celebrate our employees' success through our Circle of Excellence awards. Our monthly "On The Spot" award recognizes employees who go
above and beyond their job. Our annual awards, the “Rising Star” and “Standing Ovation” recognize new employees and tenured employees who
exhibit exceptional promise, ability, and our InvenTrust values. We monitor our performance through employee engagement surveys and utilize the
results to continually improve our organization.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES
Stockholder Engagement
We have a robust investor engagement program led by our
Investor Relations team and the Corporate Secretary’s office.
The Company engages proactively with our stockholders,
monitors developments in corporate governance and social
responsibility, and in consultation with our Board, thoughtfully
adopts practices in a manner that best supports our strategy
and culture. We view stockholder engagement as continuous
dialogue, rather than event-driven. Our engagement approach is
grounded in a set of core principles:
TRANSPARENCY: engage openly with stockholders providing
information and communications in a timely and understandable
manner.
CONSISTENCY: maintain regular and consistent
communication to ensure continuity and meaningful
engagement.   
ACCOUNTABILITY: inform stockholders of the Company’s
performance and strategic execution as compared to the
Company’s targets.
Therefore, we actively engage with our stockholders in a number of
forums on a year-round basis as depicted by the following graphic:
IR Pie Graph.jpg
Stockholder feedback is received through all of these interactions. Stockholders may also send correspondence to the InvenTrust Investor Relations
email address and, as appropriate, relevant stockholder concerns are addressed promptly by the Investor Relations department. In addition,
stockholders may also make their views known through individual voting for directors, say-on-pay advisory votes and other matters submitted to
stockholders for approval. Finally, stockholders may submit stockholder proposals in accordance with applicable rules and our Bylaws.

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS & PROXY STATEMENT 2025
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES
Director Independence
Our business is managed under the direction and oversight of our Board. The members of our Board are Julian E. Whitehurst, our chairperson,
Stuart W. Aitken, Amanda E. Black, Daniel J. Busch, Thomas F. Glavin, Scott A. Nelson, Paula J. Saban, Smita N. Shah, Michael A. Stein and Julie
M. Swinehart. Mr. Stein notified the Company that he will not seek re-election as a director at the Annual Meeting due to the Company’s mandatory
retirement age under the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines. Mr. Glavin notified the Company that he will not seek re-election as a
director at the Annual Meeting. As required by our Charter, a majority of our directors must be “independent.” As defined by our Charter, an
“independent director” means any director who qualifies as an “independent director” under the provisions of the NYSE Listed Company Manual in
effect from time to time. The NYSE standards provide that to qualify as an independent director, in addition to satisfying certain bright-line criteria, the
Board must affirmatively determine that a director has no material relationship with the Company (either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer
of an organization that has a relationship with the Company).
Consistent with these considerations, after reviewing all relevant transactions or relationships between each director, or any of his or her family
members, and the Company, our management, and our independent registered public accounting firm, and considering each director’s direct and
indirect association with the Company and its management, the Board has determined that Mses. Black, Shah, Saban and Swinehart and Messrs.
Aitken, Glavin, Nelson, Stein and Whitehurst qualify as independent directors.
Board Leadership Structure and Risk Oversight
Mr. Busch, in his role as our president and chief executive officer, is responsible for managing the strategic direction and for providing the day-to-day
leadership of the Company. Mr. Whitehurst, in his role as our chairperson of the Board, organizes the work of the Board and ensures that the Board
has access to sufficient information to carry out its functions, including monitoring the Company’s performance. Mr. Whitehurst presides over
meetings of the Board and stockholders, establishes the agenda for each meeting and oversees the distribution of information to directors. We have
separated the roles of the president and chairperson of the Board in recognition of the differences between the two roles. Our Board believes the
current structure is appropriate and effective.
To ensure free and open discussion and communication among the non-employee directors of our Board, the non-employee directors meet
periodically in private session with no members of management present. Mr. Whitehurst, as our chairperson, presides at these sessions.
Our Board oversees the business and affairs of our Company, including its long-term health, overall success and financial strength. The full Board is
actively involved in overseeing risk management for the Company. Our Board oversees risk through the: (1) review and discussion of regular
periodic reports to the Board and its committees, including management reports, leasing activity and property operating data, as well as actual and
projected financial results, the corporate model and outputs, and various other matters relating to our business; (2) required approval by the Board of
certain transactions, including, among others, acquisitions and dispositions of properties exceeding certain dollar amounts and financings exceeding
certain dollar amounts, as set forth in investment policies adopted by the Board; (3) oversight of risk associated with the various elements of
compensation by the compensation committee; (4) oversight of cybersecurity and other information technology risks by the audit committee; (5)
oversight of risk policies and management as well as major financial risk exposures and steps taken to monitor and control such risks by the audit
committee; (6) review of regular periodic reports from our independent public accounting firm, third-party internal audit firm and other outside
consultants regarding various areas of potential risk, including, among others, those relating to the qualification of the Company as a real estate
investment trust (“REIT”) for tax purposes and our internal control over financial reporting; and (7) oversight of ESG goals, policies and risks through
updates to the Board by senior leaders of the ESG Steering Committee.
Policy on Hedging, Pledging and Speculative Transactions
Our Insider Trading Compliance Policy prohibits all directors, officers, and employees from engaging in short-term speculative securities transactions
such as short sales and certain hedging or monetization transactions with respect to the Company’s securities. The policy also prohibits all directors,
officers, and employees from pledging our securities as collateral for a loan, purchasing such securities on margin or placing such securities in a
margin account, unless approved in advance by our General Counsel.

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS & PROXY STATEMENT 2025
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES
Clawback Policy
We maintain a mandatory clawback policy in compliance with SEC rules and NYSE listing standards (the “Clawback Policy”). Our Clawback Policy
provides that the Company shall recover from current or former executive officers excess incentive-based compensation (i.e., incentive
compensation that is granted, earned or vested based in whole or in part on the attainment of one or more financial reporting measures) in the event
the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement, unless the compensation committee determines that recovery would be
impracticable.
Equity Award Timing Policies and Practices
The Company does not currently grant (and does not currently have any outstanding) stock options, SARs or any similar awards with “option-like”
features and therefore has not adopted a policy regarding the timing of any such awards in connection with the disclosure of material non-public
information of the Company, however, as a general matter, the Company does not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material non-
public information and we do not time the release of material non-public information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.
Equity Retention Policy
Our Equity Retention Policy (“ERP”) requires our directors, named executive officers (“NEOs”) and such other executive officers selected by the
Company and the compensation committee (collectively, the “Covered Persons”) to own a certain amount of our equity. Our ERP sets forth minimum
equity requirements for NEOs and other executive officers as a multiple of the annual base salary and for non-employee directors as a multiple of the
annual cash retainer (exclusive of any committee fees and any annual equity retainers). Please refer to the table below for the applicable multiple.
Equity interests that count toward the satisfaction of the minimum equity requirement include (i) vested common stock and (ii) unvested restricted
common stock or restricted stock units provided that the vesting of such unvested restricted common stock or unrestricted stock units is not subject
to the achievement of any performance goals. Each Covered Person shall accumulate the ownership requirements by the later of (i) within five (5)
years of becoming a Covered Person or (ii) by December 31, 2026, and thereafter shall retain the minimum equity requirement for the duration of
board service or employment, as the case may be. Compliance with the policy will be measured annually as of January 1 of each year (a
“Measurement Date”). If after a Covered Person achieves the minimum equity requirement the amount of equity that the Covered Person owns
subsequently falls below such minimum equity requirement, as measured on a Measurement Date (the “Drop Date”), then the Covered Person shall
not sell any common stock of the Company until such time as the Covered Person has once again met the minimum equity requirement as of a
Measurement Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Covered Person may sell up to but not more than fifty percent (50%) of any common stock of
the Company for underlying equity awards that vest after the Drop Date to pay any federal, state or local taxes that the Covered Person may owe on
the Company common stock underlying such newly vested equity awards.

to communicate with, or otherwise make his or her concerns known directly to the chairperson of our Board, the chairperson of any of the audit,
nominating and corporate governance and compensation committees, or to the non-employee or independent directors as a group, may do so by (1)

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES
Selection of Director Nominees
The nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for reviewing the qualifications of potential director candidates and
recommending those candidates to be nominated for election to the Board. The nominating and corporate governance committee considers
individual qualifications, such as personal and professional integrity, ethics, and values, as well as the contribution of the candidate to the breadth of
backgrounds, viewpoints, and experiences on the Board and their interplay with those of other Board members to build a Board that is effective,
collegial, and responsive to the needs of the Company.
The nominating and corporate governance committee screens all potential candidates in the same manner, regardless of the source of the
recommendation. The review is expected to be based on any written materials provided with respect to potential candidates, and the nominating and
corporate governance committee will review the materials to determine the qualifications, experience and background of the candidates. Final
candidates are expected to be interviewed by one or more members of the nominating and corporate governance committee.
The nominating and corporate governance committee will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders for our 2026 annual meeting
of stockholders. Any such recommendations must be submitted in accordance with the procedures specified in Section 9 of Article II of our Bylaws.
Generally, this requires that the stockholder send certain materials and information, including information about the candidate to our secretary not

advance notice of stockholder nominees for director. If the shares of our common stock held by the stockholder making the recommendation are
held in “street name,” notices should also attach proof of ownership of InvenTrust common stock as of the date of the notice. At a minimum,
candidates recommended for nomination to the Board must meet the director independence standards of the NYSE.

Our Board has nominated the eight individuals set forth below to serve as directors until the next annual meeting and until their successors are duly
elected and qualify. Mr. Stein notified the Company that he will not seek re-election as a director at the Annual Meeting due to the Company’s

as a director at the Annual Meeting. We know of no reason why any nominee will be unable to serve if elected. If any nominee is unable to serve, or

Board, or the Board may reduce the number of directors to be elected. If any director resigns, dies or is otherwise unable to serve out his or her term,
or if the Board increases the number of directors, the Board may fill the vacancy until the next annual meeting and until the director’s successor is
duly elected and qualifies. Our Board unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the election of all eight nominees.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
This section discusses the principles underlying our policies and decisions with respect to the compensation of our executive officers who are named
in the “Summary Compensation Table” below and the principal factors relevant to an analysis of these policies and decisions.
This section provides an overview of our executive compensation philosophy, the overall objectives of our executive compensation program and
each compensation component that we provided in 2024. Each of the key elements of our executive compensation program is discussed in more
detail below. The following discussion and analysis of compensation arrangements of our NEOs should be read together with the compensation
tables and related disclosures set forth below.
Our executive compensation program is designed to provide a total compensation package intended to align executive compensation with the
Company’s performance and with stockholder interests, and to attract, motivate and retain talented and experienced executive officers through
competitive compensation arrangements.
At our annual meeting of stockholders on May 7, 2024 (the “2024 Annual Meeting”), we provided our stockholders with an advisory vote to approve
the compensation of our NEOs (the “say-on-pay proposal”). At our 2024 Annual Meeting, our stockholders approved, on an advisory basis, the
compensation of our NEOs, with over 95.9% of the votes cast in favor of the say-on-pay proposal. Our Board and our compensation committee
determined that we will hold a say-on-pay proposal vote to approve the compensation of our NEOs every year. We are conducting a say-on-pay
advisory vote at our 2025 Annual Meeting. See Proposal No. 3 below.
Our Named Executive Officers
In 2024, our “named executive officers” (“NEOs”) and their positions were as follows:

Executive Summary
Summary of 2024 Financial and Operational Results
InvenTrust Properties Corp. is a premier Sun Belt, multi-tenant essential retail REIT that owns, leases, redevelops, acquires, and manages grocery-
anchored neighborhood and community centers, as well as high-quality power centers that often have a grocery component. We pursue our
business strategy by:
Acquiring retail properties in Sun Belt markets;
Opportunistically disposing of retail properties; and
Maintaining a flexible capital structure.
Acquiring retail properties in Sun Belt markets. InvenTrust focuses on Sun Belt markets with favorable demographics, including above-average
growth in population, employment, income and education levels. We believe these conditions create favorable demand characteristics for grocery-
anchored and necessity-based retail centers, which will position us to capitalize on potential future rent increases while enjoying sustained
occupancy at our centers. Our strategically located field offices are within a two-hour drive of over 95% of our properties which affords us the ability
to respond to the needs of our tenants and provides us with in-depth local market knowledge. We believe that our Sun Belt portfolio of high quality
grocery-anchored assets is a distinct differentiator for us in the marketplace.
Opportunistically disposing of retail properties. We continue to opportunistically dispose of properties where we believe they no longer meet our
investment criteria. These dispositions will allow us to redeploy the proceeds in more attractive opportunities in Sun Belt markets.
Maintaining a flexible capital structure. We believe our current capital structure provides us with the financial flexibility and capacity to fund our
current capital needs as well as future growth opportunities. We believe we have the liquidity necessary to continue executing on our strategic and
operational objectives while exhibiting focused and disciplined capital allocation. Our flexible capital structure and ample liquidity will allow us to take
advantage of future growth opportunities that meet our investment criteria.

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS & PROXY STATEMENT 2025
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Funds From Operations
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”),
an industry trade group, has promulgated a widely accepted non-
GAAP financial measure of operating performance known as Funds
From Operations (“Nareit FFO”). Our Nareit FFO is net income (or
loss) in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) resulting
from dispositions of properties, plus depreciation and amortization and
impairment charges on depreciable real property. Adjustments for
unconsolidated joint ventures are calculated to reflect our
proportionate share of the joint venture’s funds from operations on the
same basis.
In calculating Nareit FFO, impairment charges of depreciable real
estate assets are added back even though the impairment charge
may represent a permanent decline in value due to the decreased
operating performance of the applicable property. Furthermore,
because gains and losses from sales of property are excluded from
Nareit FFO, it is consistent and appropriate that impairments, which
are often early recognition of losses on prospective sales of property,
also be excluded.
We believe Nareit FFO Applicable to Common Shares and Dilutive
Securities, when considered with the financial statements determined
in accordance with GAAP, is helpful to investors in understanding our
performance because the historical accounting convention used for
real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and
improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets
diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values historically
rise and fall with market conditions, presentations of operating results
for a REIT, using historical accounting for depreciation, could be less
informative.
Core Funds From Operations (“Core FFO”) is an additional
supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of our operating
performance. In particular, Core FFO provides an additional
measure to compare the operating performance of different REITs
without having to account for certain remaining amortization
assumptions within Nareit FFO and other unique revenue and
expense items which some may consider not pertinent to measuring a
particular company’s on-going operating performance. We have
historically used Core FFO as an input to our compensation plan to
determine cash bonuses and measure the achievement of certain
performance-based equity awards.
Our adjustments to Nareit FFO to arrive at Core FFO include
removing the impact of (i) amortization of debt discounts and financing
costs, (ii) amortization of market-lease intangibles and inducements,
net, (iii) depreciation and amortization of corporate assets, (iv)
straight-line rent adjustments, (v) gains (or losses) resulting from debt
extinguishments (vi) other non-operating revenue and expense items
which, in our judgment, are not pertinent to measuring on-going
operating performance, and (vii) adjustments for unconsolidated joint
ventures to reflect our share of the ventures’ Core FFO on the same
basis. Our calculation of Core FFO Applicable to Common Shares and
Dilutive Securities does not consider any capital expenditures.
Other REITs may use alternative methodologies for calculating
similarly titled measures, which may not be comparable to our
definition and calculation of Nareit FFO Applicable to Common Shares
and Dilutive Securities or Core FFO Applicable to Common Shares
and Dilutive Securities. Furthermore, Nareit FFO and Core FFO are
not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs
and should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an
indication of our performance. Nareit FFO and Core FFO should not
be considered as alternatives to our cash flows from operating,
investing, and financing activities. Nor should Nareit FFO and Core
FFO be considered as measures of liquidity, our ability to make cash
distributions, or our ability to service our debt.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Elements
Our executive compensation program for 2024 consisted of the following elements: base salary, annual cash bonus, equity-based long-term
incentive awards, retirement benefits and health/welfare benefits. Each of these elements taken separately, as well as each of these elements taken
as a whole, was necessary to support our overall compensation objectives. The following table sets forth the key elements of our NEOs
compensation for 2024, along with the primary objective associated with each element of compensation.
TOTAL COMPENSATION
Compensation Component
Component Element
Component Objective
Fixed
Base Salary
To compensate ongoing performance of job responsibilities and provide
a fixed minimum income level as a necessary tool in attracting and
retaining executives.
Performance Based
Annual Cash Bonus
To incentivize the attainment of annual financial, operational and
personal objectives and individual contributions to the achievement of
those objectives.
Long-Term Equity Incentive
Compensation
To provide incentives that are linked directly to increases in value of the
Company as a result of the execution of our long-term plans.
Benefits
Retirement savings - 401(k) plan
To provide retirement savings in a tax-efficient manner.
Health and Welfare Benefits
To provide typical protections from health, dental, death and disability
risks.
The compensation committee believes that executive compensation should reflect the value created for our stockholders, while supporting our
operational goals and long-term business plans and strategies. In addition, the compensation committee believes that such compensation should
assist us in attracting and retaining key executives critical to our long-term success.
Good Governance and Best Practices
With respect to our executive compensation program, we are committed to staying apprised of current issues, emerging trends, and best practices.
To this end, when considering executive officer compensation packages for 2024, our compensation committee worked with our independent
compensation consultant, Ferguson Partners Consulting (“FPC”), to conduct a comprehensive market analysis of our executive compensation
program and pay, and to generally align target direct compensation for our NEOs conservatively relative to the median of the applicable peer group.
Our executive compensation programs and practices for 2024 included the following features, which we believe are mindful of the concerns of our
stockholders.
Our NEOs were eligible to earn annual bonuses based upon achievement of specific annual financial, operational, and individual objectives
that were designed to challenge the NEOs and incentivize strong performance.
Our NEOs participated in equity-based incentive plans which provided incentives that are linked directly to increases in the equity value of the
Company.
In addition to time-vesting awards, our 2024 equity incentive program for our NEOs includes performance vesting awards, the vesting of which
is based on the achievement of total shareholder return (“TSR”) metrics.
Our NEOs participated in broad-based Company-sponsored benefits programs on the same basis as other full-time employees.
Our NEOs participated in the same defined contribution retirement plan and employee stock purchase plan as other employees.
FPC, our independent compensation consultant, was retained directly by and reported to the compensation committee.
Our compensation committee, in conjunction with FPC, developed a comparative peer group to analyze the competitiveness of the total pay
opportunity provided to our NEOs.
We did not provide our executive officers or other employees with tax gross-up payments, supplemental retirement benefits or perquisites.

Equity Retention Policy (“ERP”)
As more fully discussed above, we maintain the ERP, which includes stock ownership requirements that are applicable to our NEOs and such other
executive officers as may be selected by the CEO and the compensation committee. See “Corporate Governance Principles–Equity Retention
Policy” for more information.
Stockholder Interest Alignment
Equity awards granted in 2024 to our NEOs included grants of both time-vesting and performance-vesting RSU awards, which entitle each executive
to receive shares of our common stock upon vesting of the RSU award. Our annual bonus program, combined with grants of equity-based awards,
creates a balanced focus on the achievement of short-term and long-term financial and operational goals. Our compensation committee believes that
this “at risk” compensation in the form of annual bonuses and long-term equity-based incentives plays a significant role in aligning management’s
interests with those of our stockholders. The following chart reflects our NEO compensation package mix:

Roles of Our Compensation Committee and Chief Executive Officer in Compensation Decisions
Our compensation committee is responsible for overseeing our executive compensation program, as well as determining and approving the ongoing
compensation arrangements for our NEOs. Our compensation committee evaluates the individual performance and contributions of our Chief
Executive Officer. Our Chief Executive Officer evaluates the individual performance and contributions of each other NEO, and reports to our
compensation committee his recommendations regarding the other NEOs’ compensation.
Engagement of Compensation Consultant
For 2024, our compensation committee retained the services of FPC to serve as the compensation committee’s independent compensation
consultant. FPC was engaged to assist the compensation committee with a variety of tasks, which included among other things, analyzing executive
and Board compensation relative to peer companies. FPC did not provide any other services to the Company in 2024. Our compensation committee
has determined that FPC is independent and does not have any conflicts of interest with the Company.
Peer Group Review
With respect to the compensation packages offered to our NEOs, the compensation committee reviewed total cash and long-term compensation
levels for executive officers of the Company against those of our peer group companies in an effort to set executive compensation at levels that will
attract and motivate qualified executives while rewarding performance based on corporate objectives. The compensation committee set
compensation levels for each executive officer on the basis of several factors, including the executive officer’s level of experience, competitive
market data applicable to the executive officer’s positions and functional responsibilities, promoting recruitment and retention, the performance of the
executive officer and the Company’s annual and long-term performance, as applicable.

The Compensation Committee reassessed and updated the peer group in 2024. The peer group used to set 2024 base salaries, bonus targets, and
long-term equity awards for our NEOs consisted of the following 10 similarly sized REITs:
Executive Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
The market for experienced management is highly competitive in our industry. One of our principal goals and keys to our success is to attract and
retain the most highly qualified executives to manage each of our business functions. Our compensation committee works with FPC to understand
competitive pay practices within the REIT industry and to design executive compensation programs that fit our business strategy and align the
interests of our NEOs with those of our stockholders.
Elements of Executive Compensation Program
The following describes the primary components of our executive compensation program for each of our NEOs for 2024, the rationale for each
component, and how compensation amounts were determined.
Base Salary
In 2024, we provided our NEOs with a base salary to compensate them for
services rendered to us during the year. The base salary payable to each
NEO is intended to provide a fixed component of compensation reflecting the
executive’s skill set, experience, role and responsibilities. The base salaries
for each of the NEOs for 2024 were determined based in part on the analysis
by FPC of the compensation practices of companies in the Company’s peer
group. The adjacent table sets forth the annual base salary rates for each of
our NEOs for 2024. Mr. Busch’s annual base salary rate was increased to
$900,000, Ms. David’s annual base salary rate was increased to $550,000
and Mr. Phillips’ annual base salary rate was increased to $500,000, in each
case, effective January 1, 2024.

Performance Goals Metrics
Annual Cash Bonuses
Our 2024 compensation program for our NEOs was designed to align key financial and operational achievements with the annual cash bonuses to
such NEOs. Annual cash bonuses were focused primarily on financial performance for 2024, as well as individual performance. Under our annual
bonus programs for 2024, our NEOs were eligible to earn cash bonuses based on each of their individual performances in support of our financial,
operational, and cultural goals for 2024, as well as our achievement in 2024 of performance goals relating to Core FFO per diluted share and same
property net operating income (“Same Property NOI”). For more information regarding these metrics including why management believes they are
useful for investors, and a reconciliation of each to net income, please see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Our compensation committee believes these annual targeted operational and financial goals align with our strategy to attain long-term financial
stability that will support sustained cash flows beneficial to our stockholders. Performance of each NEO was not evaluated solely upon satisfaction of
predetermined performance goals but was also evaluated subjectively by the compensation committee.
For the Company’s 2024 fiscal year, each of the NEOs was eligible to receive an annual cash bonus based upon the achievement of certain
performance goals and individual performance criteria. The annual cash bonus is determined as a percentage of the NEOs annual base salary. The
threshold, target, and maximum payout amounts were as follows based on the percentages determined by the compensation committee in February
2024.
Under the annual cash bonus program for our NEOs, the 2024 performance goals were:

Why is this metric important?
We evaluate the performance of our retail properties based on NOI, which excludes general and administrative expenses, depreciation and
amortization, other income and expense, net, gains (losses) from sales of properties, gains (losses) on extinguishment of debt, impairment of real
estate assets, interest expense, net, equity in earnings (losses) from unconsolidated entities, lease termination income and expense, and GAAP
rent adjustments such as amortization of market lease intangibles, amortization of lease incentives, and straight-line rent adjustments. We use
Same Property NOI as an input to our compensation plan to determine cash bonuses and measure the achievement of certain performance-based
equity awards.
Target
The 2024 Company Performance Target for Same Property NOI growth was 2.8%. The target level was set based on the Company’s expectations
for the year.

Why is this metric important?
Core FFO provides an additional measure to compare the operating performance of different REITs without having to account for certain remaining
amortization assumptions within Nareit FFO and other unique revenue and expense items which are not pertinent to measuring a particular
company’s on-going operating performance. We use Core FFO as an input to our compensation plan to determine cash bonuses and measure the
achievement of certain performance- based equity awards.
Target
The 2024 Company Performance Target for Core FFO per diluted share was $1.68 per share. The target level was set based on the Company’s
expectations for the year.
Performance
Actual Core FFO per diluted share was $1.73, resulting in an achievement of 150% of target.
1Same Property NOI and Core FFO per diluted share represent our publicly reported performance metrics. For purposes of our Performance Target Achieved, Same Property NOI
and Core FFO per diluted share are adjusted for additional compensation expense for above-target performance.
Individual Performance Goals
The Compensation Committee also reviewed the performance of each NEO against their individual goals, which represents 25% of the payout
opportunity under the annual cash bonuses. The individual goals, which were set in February 2024, included individual performance related to the
achievement of the Company's financial and operational performance targets and leadership goals, as well as the individual goals for each NEO
described below.
Mr. Busch: Goals relating to the development and execution of the Company’s strategic plan, the Company’s strategy to provide long term
stockholder value creation and continued engagement with institutional investors and analyst community.

The goals of our long-term equity-based awards granted in 2024 were to promote and encourage efforts towards the execution of our long-term
business plans and thereby, to align the interest of our officers, including our NEOs, with those of our stockholders by directly linking the value of the
RSUs granted to our NEOs with the value of the Company.
Restricted Stock Unit Awards
In 2024, our compensation committee approved the RSU awards set
forth in the adjacent table (with dividend equivalents) to our NEOs (the
“RSU Awards”) under the InvenTrust Properties Corp. 2015 Incentive
Award Plan, as amended (the “Incentive Award Plan”) and pursuant to
one or more restricted stock unit award agreements (the “RSU Award

Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units
Pursuant to the performance vesting RSU Awards (the “TSR RSUs”) granted to our NEOs in 2024, each NEO is eligible to vest in a number of RSUs
ranging from 0% to 100% of the total number of RSUs granted (which is equal to the maximum number of TSR RSUs that may be earned), based on
the Company’s total shareholder return relative to the NAREIT SCI, during a three-year performance period commencing on January 1, 2024 and
ending on December 31, 2026 (the “Performance Period”), subject to the executive’s continued service.

In the event that the Index Relative Performance falls between the levels specified above, the relative TSR Performance Vesting Percentage shall be
determined using straight line linear interpolation between such levels.
If an NEO is terminated by the Company other than for “cause”, by the NEO for “good reason”, or due to the NEO’s death or disability (each such
term as defined in the applicable RSU Award Agreement) prior to completion of the Performance Period, the TSR RSUs will remain outstanding and
eligible to vest in accordance with the performance vesting schedules described in the applicable RSU Award Agreement with the number of TSR
RSUs that vest upon the completion of the Performance Period determined on a pro rata basis, based on the number of days that the NEO was
employed during the Performance Period. Any TSR RSUs that do not become vested in accordance with the preceding sentence will be cancelled
and forfeited by the NEO.
In addition, in the event that a change in control of the Company occurs prior to the completion of the Performance Period, the NEO has not incurred
a termination of service prior to such change in control and the awards of TSR RSUs are not continued, converted, assumed or replaced by the
successor or surviving entity in such change in control, then the TSR RSUs will vest based on actual performance and assuming the completion of
the Performance Period as of, the date of the change in control. Any TSR RSUs that have not vested as of the date on which such change in control
occurs will be cancelled and forfeited by the NEO.
Additional information regarding the vesting terms and conditions applicable to all outstanding RSU awards held by our NEOs is set forth under the
heading “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” below.
Time-Based Restricted Stock Units
Time-vesting RSU Awards granted to our NEOs in 2024 vest in three substantially equal annual installments on the last business day of each of
2024, 2025 and 2026, subject to the executive’s continued service. If an executive’s service is terminated by us other than for “cause,” or by the
executive for “good reason,” in either case, on the date of, or during the twenty-four month period following, a change in control of the Company, or
due to the executive’s death or “disability” (as defined in the RSU Award Agreement), any then-unvested time-based RSUs will vest in full upon such
termination. Upon an executive’s termination of service for any other reason, any then-unvested time-based RSUs will automatically be cancelled
and forfeited by the executive. Any RSUs that become vested will be paid to the executive in whole shares of our common stock within 60 days after
the applicable vesting date.
Each RSU was granted in tandem with a corresponding dividend equivalent. Each dividend equivalent entitles the executive to receive payments
equal to the amount of the dividends paid on the shares of common stock underlying the unvested RSUs to which the dividend equivalent relates.

2022 Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Vesting
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we granted performance-vesting TSR RSUs to Messrs. Busch and Phillips and Ms. David, which were
eligible to vest during the performance period commencing on January 1, 2022 and ending on December 31, 2024 (the “2022-2024 Performance
Period”), based on the Company’s TSR relative to the NAREIT SCI. Based on the Company’s TSR relative to the NAREIT SCI during the
performance period, the awards vested at target level achievement measured as of the end of the 2022-2024 Performance Period.
Other Elements of Compensation
In 2024, we provided customary employee benefits to our full- and part-time employees, including our NEOs, including medical and dental benefits,
short-term and long-term disability insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, and group life insurance.
We have established a 401(k) retirement savings plan for our employees, including our NEOs, who satisfy certain eligibility requirements. In 2024,
our NEOs were eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan on the same terms as other full-time employees. The Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”)
allows eligible employees to defer a portion of their compensation, within prescribed limits, on a pre-tax basis through contributions to the 401(k)
plan. In 2024, we matched dollar for dollar the contributions made by participants in the 401(k) plan for the first $6,000 of the employee’s
contributions. These matching contributions are subject to vesting based on the participant’s years of service. We believe that providing a vehicle for
tax-deferred retirement savings though our 401(k) plan, and making matching contributions, adds to the overall desirability of our compensation
packages and further incentivizes our employees in accordance with our compensation policies.
We have established an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), whereby eligible employees, including our NEOs, may defer a portion of their
eligible compensation to acquire shares of our common stock at a 15% discount. The purpose of the ESPP is to provide eligible employees with a
convenient means of acquiring an equity interest in our company through payroll deductions in order to enhance such employees’ sense of
participation in the affairs of our company. In 2024, Messrs. Busch and Phillips and Ms. David each purchased 750 shares under the ESPP.
Severance and Change in Control-Based Compensation
Each of our NEOs has been designated as a participant in our Executive Severance and Change of Control Plan (the “Severance Plan”). The terms
and conditions of the Severance Plan and the payments and benefits to which the NEOs may become entitled under such plans in the event of a
qualifying termination of employment are more fully described below under “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.”
We believe that job security and terminations of employment, both within and outside of the change in control context, are causes of significant
concern and uncertainty for senior executives and that providing protections to our NEOs in these contexts is therefore appropriate in order to
alleviate these concerns and allow the executives to remain focused on their duties and responsibilities to the Company in all situations.
Furthermore, the RSU Award Agreements provide for accelerated vesting of the awards upon certain terminations of employment. A detailed
description of the acceleration provisions applicable to the RSU Awards is set forth under the heading “Potential Payments Upon Termination or
Change in Control” below.

Tax and Accounting Considerations
Code Section 162(m)
Generally, Section 162(m) of the Code disallows a tax deduction for any publicly-held corporation for individual compensation exceeding $1.0 million
in any taxable year to certain of its executive officers. We believe that we qualify as a REIT under the Code and generally are not subject to federal
income taxes, provided that we distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our taxable income each year. As a result of the Company’s tax status
as a REIT, the loss of a deduction under Section 162(m) may not affect the amount of federal income tax payable by the Company. Therefore, our
Board and our compensation committee generally have not taken the deductibility limit imposed by Section 162(m) into consideration in setting
compensation.
Code Section 409A
Section 409A of the Code, or Section 409A, requires that “nonqualified deferred compensation” be deferred and paid under plans or arrangements
that satisfy the requirements of the statute with respect to the timing of deferral elections, timing of payments and certain other matters. Failure to
satisfy these requirements can expose employees and other service providers to accelerated income tax liabilities, penalty taxes and interest on their
vested compensation under such plans. Accordingly, as a general matter, it is our intention to design and administer our compensation and benefits
plans and arrangements for all of our employees and other service providers, including our NEOs, so that they are either exempt from, or satisfy the
requirements of, Section 409A.
Code Section 280G
Section 280G of the Code disallows a tax deduction with respect to excess parachute payments to certain executives of companies which undergo a
11999-dallas-ext7297_EDIT.jpg
change in control. In addition, Section 4999 of the Code imposes a 20% excise tax on the individual with respect to the excess parachute payment.
Parachute payments are compensation linked to or triggered by a change in control and may include, but are not limited to, bonus payments,
severance payments, certain fringe benefits, and payments and acceleration of vesting from long term incentive plans including share units and
other equity-based compensation. Excess parachute payments are parachute payments that exceed a threshold determined under Section 280G
based on the executive’s prior compensation. In approving the compensation arrangements for our NEOs, our Board and our compensation
committee consider all elements of the cost to our Company of providing such compensation, including the potential impact of Section 280G.
However, our Board or our compensation committee may, in their judgment, authorize compensation arrangements that could give rise to loss of
deductibility under Section 280G and the imposition of excise taxes under Section 4999 when they believe that such arrangements are appropriate
to attract and retain executive talent.

Fiscal 2025 Compensation Decisions
On February 18, 2025, our compensation committee approved certain
aspects of the 2025 compensation program for our NEOs, as
described below.
2025 Base Salary
In February 2025, the compensation committee approved the

2025 Annual Cash Bonuses
In February 2025, the compensation committee also approved the
Company’s 2025 annual bonus program for our NEOs. The 2025
program is structured substantially the same as the Company’s 2024
annual bonus program described above, except that the
compensation committee changed the threshold, target and maximum
payout amounts related to the individual performance goals to .5x,
1.0X, and 1.5x, respectively.
Long-Term Equity Based Incentive
In February 2025, the compensation committee also approved the
Company’s 2025 long-term equity-based compensation program for
NEOs. The 2025 program is structured substantially the same as the
Company’s 2024 long-term equity-based compensation program
described above.
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
We follow Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting
max.jpg
Standards Codification Topic 718, or ASC Topic 718, for our stock-
based compensation awards. ASC Topic 718 requires companies to
calculate the grant date “fair value” of their stock based awards using
a variety of assumptions. ASC Topic 718 also requires companies to
recognize the compensation cost of their stock-based awards in their
income statements over the period that an employee is required to
render service in exchange for the award. Grants of RSU Awards
under the Incentive Award Plan are accounted for as equity awards
under ASC Topic 718. Our compensation committee regularly
considers the accounting implications of significant compensation
decisions. As accounting standards change, we may revise certain
programs to appropriately align accounting expenses of our equity
awards with our overall executive compensation philosophy and
objectives.

(1)Amounts reflect the full grant-date fair value of RSU Awards granted under the Incentive Award Plan in accordance with ASC Topic 718. With respect to the performance vesting
portion of the RSU Awards, amounts reflect the value calculated on a Monte Carlo simulation model that assesses the probability of satisfying the market performance hurdles over
the remainder of the performance period based on the Company’s historical common stock performance relative to the other companies within the FTSE Nareit Equity Shopping
Centers Index as well as certain other assumptions. Since the performance-vesting portion of the RSU Awards are earned based solely on our relative TSR, they do not have
performance conditions as defined under ASC 718, and so there are not maximum grant date fair values based on performance conditions that differ from the grant date fair values

(1)Amounts represent the number of shares of our common stock acquired in connection with the vesting of RSUs multiplied by the per share closing price of our common stock on
the applicable vesting date.
Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control
Our NEOs are entitled to certain payments and benefits upon a qualifying termination of employment (whether or not such termination is in
connection with a change in control) or upon a change in control. The following discussion describes the payments and benefits to which our NEOs
would have become entitled upon a qualifying termination or change in control, as applicable, occurring on December 31, 2024.
Executive Severance and Change In Control Plan
Each of our NEOs have been designated as participants in the Severance Plan. Under the Severance Plan, in the event a participant’s employment
with the Company is terminated by the Company without “cause” (other than by reason of death or disability) or by the participant for “good
reason” (each, as defined in the Severance Plan), the participant will be entitled to receive the following:
A severance payment in an amount equal to a multiple of the participant’s annual base salary and target cash bonus, payable in equal
installments over a period of 12 months commencing within 60 days following the participant’s termination date (except as described
below); and
payment or reimbursement by the Company of premiums for healthcare continuation coverage under COBRA for the participant and
their dependents for up to 18 months after the termination date.
The cash severance multiple for each executive for both non-change of control and change of control termination scenarios is as follows: Mr. Busch
– 2x (non-change of control) and 3x (change of control); Ms. David and Mr. Phillips – 1.5x (non-change of control) and 2.5x (change of control). The
change of control severance multiple will apply in the event of a qualifying termination of employment that occurs on the date of, or during the 24-
month period following, a “change of control” (as defined in the Severance Plan). Cash severance payable in the event of a qualifying change of
control termination will be made in a single lump sum payment within 60 days following the participant’s termination date (rather than installments
over 12 months). A participant’s right to receive the severance or other benefits described above will be subject to the participant signing, delivering
and not revoking a general release agreement in a form generally used by the Company.
The Severance Plan also provides that in the event of a change of control, a participant will be eligible to receive a pro-rated portion of the
participant’s target annual bonus for the year in which such event occurs. The Severance Plan further provides that, to the extent that any payment
or benefit received by a participant in connection with a change of control would be subject to an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal
Revenue Code, as amended, such payments and/or benefits will be subject to a “best pay cap” reduction if such reduction would result in a greater
net after-tax benefit to the participant than receiving the full amount of such payments.
Each letter agreement entered into with the executives contains a confidentiality covenant by the executive that extends indefinitely, a
noncompetition covenant that extends during the executive’s employment and for a period of one year following a termination of the executive’s
employment, and an employee and independent contractor non-solicitation covenant that extends during the executive’s employment and for a
period of three years following a termination of the executive’s employment. Each letter agreement also includes a mutual non-disparagement
covenant by the executive and the Company.

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS & PROXY STATEMENT 2025
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The Company may amend or terminate the Severance Plan at any time and for any reason, provided that a participant’s right to receive payments
and benefits under the Severance Plan may not, without the participant’s written consent, be adversely affected by an amendment or termination of
the Severance Plan made within 12 months prior to the participant’s termination of employment or within 12 months before and after a change of
control. The Company is required to provide notice to participants within 15 days of any amendment or termination of the Severance Plan.
RSU Award Agreements
The RSU Award Agreements provide for accelerated vesting of the awards in the event of certain terminations of service or change in control of the
Company.
Time-Based RSUs
If an NEO’s service is terminated by us other than for “cause” or by the NEO for “good reason,” in either case, on the date of, or during the 24 month
period following, a change in control of the Company, or due to the NEO’s death or “disability” (as defined in the RSU Award Agreements), the time-
vesting RSU Awards held by the NEO will vest in full upon such termination.
Performance-Based RSUs
If an NEO is terminated by the Company other than for “cause”, by the NEO for “good reason”, or due to the NEO’s death or disability prior to
completion of the applicable performance period, the portion of the RSU Award that is subject to performance vesting will remain outstanding and
eligible to vest in accordance with the performance vesting schedules described in the applicable RSU Award Agreement with the number of
performance vesting RSUs that vest upon the completion of such performance period determined on a pro rata basis, based on the number of days
that the NEO was employed during such performance period. If a NEO is terminated by the Company other than for “cause”, by the NEO for “good
reason”, or due to the NEO’s death or disability, following the completion of the applicable performance period but prior to the date on which vested
RSUs are paid, the RSUs will vest based on actual performance in accordance with the performance vesting schedules described in the applicable
RSU Award Agreement. In either case, any performance vesting RSUs that do not become vested will be cancelled and forfeited by the NEO.
In addition, in the event of a change in control of the Company prior to the completion of the applicable performance period, provided that the TSR
RSUs are not converted, continued, assumed or replaced, the TSR RSUs will vest based on actual performance as of, and assuming the completion
of the performance period as of, the date of such change in control, subject to the NEO’s continued service until immediately prior to the change in
control. Any RSUs that have not vested as of the date on which the change in control occurs will be cancelled and forfeited by the NEO.

death or disability.
(3)Represents amounts to which NEOs would be entitled upon a qualifying termination of employment occurring on the date of, or during the 24-month period following, a change in

and Change in Control Plan” above.
(5)Represents the aggregate value of the NEO’s unvested RSUs which would vest in connection with the executive’s termination of employment, calculated, (i) with respect to time-
based vesting RSUs by multiplying the applicable number of RSUs subject to each RSU Award by $30.13, which is equal to the per share closing price of our common stock as of
December 31, 2024, and (ii) with respect to performance vesting RSUs (a) assuming that performance goals are achieved at maximum as of December 31, 2024 with respect to
the occurrence of a change in control of the Company and (b) assuming that performance goals are achieved in line with the interpolated performance of such awards based on
the Company’s total shareholder return relative to the NAREIT SCI as of December 31, 2024 in the case of termination other than for “cause”, by the NEO for “good reason”, or
due to the NEO’s death or disability not in connection with a change in control of the Company.
(6)Represents reimbursement of COBRA premiums. The amounts associated with COBRA premiums were calculated using 2024 enrollment rates, multiplied by the maximum 18-
month period during which the executive may be entitled to reimbursement of COBRA premiums.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
CEO Pay Ratio Disclosure
As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are
providing the following information regarding the ratio of the annual total compensation of our median employee to the annual total compensation of
Daniel J. Busch, our Chief Executive Officer (our “CEO”). We consider the pay ratio specified below to be a reasonable estimate, calculated in a
manner that is intended to be consistent with the requirements of Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.
For 2024, our last completed annual period:
the annual total compensation of the employee who represents our median compensated employee (other than our CEO) was $145,626; and
the annual total compensation of our CEO was $6,095,649.
Based on this information, for 2024, the annual total compensation of our CEO was approximately 42 times the median of the annual total
compensation of all of our employees (other than the CEO).
Determining the Median Employee
Employee Population
The Company used our employee population data as of December 31, 2024 as the reference date for identifying our median employee. As of such
date, our employee population consisted of approximately 101 individuals.
Methodology for Determining Our Median Employee
To identify the median employee from our employee population, we used 2024 annual base salary, bonus earned in 2024 and any long-term
incentive stock awards granted in 2024. In identifying the median employee, we annualized the compensation of all permanent employees who were
new-hires and/or on leave of absence in 2024.
Compensation Measure and Annual Total Compensation of Median Employee
With respect to the annual total compensation of the employee who represents our median compensated employee, we calculated such employee’s
compensation for 2024 in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K.
Annual Total Compensation of CEO
With respect to the annual total compensation of our CEO, we used the amount reported in the “Total” column of our 2024 Summary Compensation
Table included in this Proxy Statement.

service-vesting RSU awards, the closing price per share on the applicable year-end date(s) or, in the case of vesting dates, the closing price per share on the
applicable vesting date(s); (ii) for performance-based RSU awards (excluding any market-based awards), the same valuation methodology as RSU awards
above except that the year-end values are multiplied by the probability of achievement of the applicable performance objective as of the applicable date; and
(iii) for market-based awards, the fair value calculated by a Monte Carlo simulation model as of the applicable year-end date(s), which utilizes multiple input
variables, including expected volatility of our stock price and other assumptions appropriate for determining fair value, to estimate the probability of satisfying
the performance objective established for the award, including the expected volatility of our stock price relative to the applicable comparative index and a risk-
free interest rate of derived from linear interpolation of the term structure of Treasury Constant Maturities yield rates for the applicable period. For additional
information on the assumptions used to calculate the valuation of the awards, see the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and prior fiscal years.
(c)For the relevant fiscal years, represents the Company’s cumulative TSR with an initial investment of $100 at the first NYSE trade price of $23.61 on October
12, 2021, the first day on which our common stock began trading on the NYSE.
(d)For the relevant fiscal years, represents the cumulative TSR of the NAREIT SCI with an initial investment of $100 on October 12, 2021, the first day on which
our common stock began trading on the NYSE.
(e)Amounts are shown in thousands.
(f)The Company has identified Core FFO per diluted share as the most important additional financial metric used to link pay and performance. Our annual bonus
program pays out based on our Core FFO per diluted share achieved for the year. Core FFO per diluted share is a non-GAAP financial measure of a real
estate company’s operating performance. We consider Core FFO per diluted share a meaningful measure of operating performance primarily because it
avoids the assumption that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time and is a primary way of evaluating our operating performance as
compared to other real estate investment trusts. A reconciliation of net income per diluted share to Core FFO per diluted share is included as Appendix A.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
One of our primary compensation objectives is to align the financial interest of our PEO and non-PEO NEOs with our stockholders.
Pay Versus Performance Tabular List
Following is a list of the most important financial and non-financial measures used to link executive compensation and company performance.
a.Core FFO per diluted share;
b.Same Property NOI;
c.Total shareholder return relative to NAREIT shopping center index; and
d.Individual performance.
For additional details regarding our most important financial performance measures, please see the Executive Compensation section for more
information on these measures and how they are taken into account in determining compensation for each of our NEOs.
Compensation Risk Assessment
We believe that our compensation policies and practices appropriately balance near-term performance improvement with sustainable long-term
value creation, and that they do not encourage unnecessary or excessive risk taking. In 2024, our management conducted an extensive review of
the design and operation of our compensation program and presented their findings to the compensation committee. The review included an
assessment of the level of risk associated with the various elements of compensation. Based on this review and assessment, we believe that our
compensation policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON
TRANSACTIONS
Related Person Transaction Policy and Procedures
Our Board has adopted a written policy regarding the review, approval and ratification of transactions with related persons, which we refer to as our
“related person policy.” Our related person policy requires that the General Counsel (or his or her designee) shall present to the audit committee any
existing or proposed “related person transaction” (defined as any transaction, arrangement or relationship (or any series of similar transactions,
arrangements or relationships) in which the Company (including any of its subsidiaries) was, is or will be a participant and the amount involved
exceeds $120,000, and in which any “related person” (as defined in paragraph (a) of Item 404 of Regulation S-K) had, has or will have a direct or
indirect interest), including all relevant facts and circumstances relating thereto. The audit committee shall review the relevant facts and
circumstances of each related person transaction, including whether the transaction is on terms comparable to those that could be obtained in arm’s
length dealings with an unrelated third party, whether the transaction is inconsistent with the interest of the Company and its stockholders, and the
extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction, taking into account the conflicts of interest and corporate opportunity provisions of the
Company’s organizational documents and Code of Ethics and Business Conduct.
If advance audit committee approval of a related person transaction requiring the audit committee’s approval is not feasible, then the transaction may
be preliminarily entered into by management upon prior approval of the transaction by the chairperson of the audit committee subject to ratification of
the transaction by the audit committee at the audit committee’s next regularly scheduled meeting; provided, that if ratification shall not be
forthcoming, management shall make all reasonable efforts to cancel or annul such transaction. Any related person transaction shall be
consummated and shall continue only if the audit committee has approved or ratified such transaction in accordance with Section 2-419 of the MGCL
(if applicable), or any successor provision thereto, our Charter and Bylaws and the guidelines set forth in our related person policy.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT(1)
The audit committee of the board of directors (the “Board”) of InvenTrust Properties Corp. (the “Company”) assists the Board in its oversight of the
integrity of the Company’s financial statements. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements, the reporting process and
maintaining an effective system of internal controls over financial reporting. The Company’s independent auditors are engaged to audit and express
opinions on the conformity of the Company’s financial statements to United States generally accepted accounting principles.
In addition to fulfilling its oversight responsibilities as set forth in its charter and further described in the section of the Company’s proxy statement for
the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders titled “Audit Committee,” the audit committee has performed the following:
Prior to the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, reviewed and discussed with
management and KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.
Discussed with KPMG the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (“PCAOB”) and the SEC.
Evaluated KPMG’s qualifications, performance and independence (consistent with SEC requirements), which included the receipt and
review of the written disclosures and the letter from KPMG required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding KPMG’s
communications with the audit committee concerning independence and discussions with KPMG regarding its independence.
Based on the reviews and discussions with management and KPMG cited above, including the review of KPMG’s disclosures and letter to the audit
committee and review of the representations of management and the reports of KPMG, the audit committee recommended to the Board that the
Company’s audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2024 filed with the SEC.
Submitted by the members of the audit committee of the Board.

PROPOSAL NO. 2  Ratify Appointment of KPMG LLP
The audit committee has selected KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December
31, 2025. Oversight includes regular executive sessions with KPMG, discussion with KPMG about the scope of the audit, a comprehensive annual
evaluation when determining whether to reengage KPMG and direct involvement by the audit committee and its chairperson in the selection of the
engagement partner in connection with the mandated PCAOB partner rotation rules. We are asking our stockholders to ratify the selection.
KPMG also served as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2024. Representatives of KPMG will be
present at the Annual Meeting to respond to appropriate questions and to make such statements as they may desire.
Stockholder ratification of the selection of KPMG as our independent registered public accounting firm is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise.
However, the Board is submitting the selection of KPMG to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate governance practice.
Furthermore, the audit committee will take the results of the stockholder vote regarding KPMG’s appointment into consideration in future
deliberations. Even if the selection is ratified, the audit committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered
public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company.
Vote Required
The ratification of Proposal No. 2 requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast on this proposal at the Annual Meeting.
Recommendation
The Board unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of KPMG as our independent registered public
accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025.

PROPOSAL NO. 2  Ratify Appointment of KPMG LLP
Approval of Services and Fees
Our audit committee, or the chairperson of our audit committee, must pre-approve any audit and non-audit service provided to us by the independent
auditor, unless the engagement is entered into pursuant to appropriate pre-approval policies established by the audit committee or if such service
falls within available exceptions under SEC rules. If approved by the chairperson of the audit committee, such approval will be presented to the audit
committee at its next meeting. The audit committee may form and delegate authority to subcommittees consisting of one or more members when
appropriate, including the authority to approve audit and permitted non-audit services, provided that the decision of the subcommittee to approve any
service shall be presented to the full audit committee at its next scheduled meeting.
The audit committee has reviewed and approved all of the fees charged by KPMG for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, and actively
monitors the relationship between audit and non-audit services provided by KPMG. The audit committee concluded that all services rendered by
KPMG during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, were consistent with maintaining KPMG’s independence. As a matter of
policy, we will not engage our primary independent registered public accounting firm for non-audit services other than “audit-related services,” as
defined by the SEC, certain tax services and other permissible non-audit services that are specifically approved as described above.

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS & PROXY STATEMENT 2025
PROPOSAL NO. 3 Advisory Vote On Named
Executive Officer Compensation (“Say-On-Pay”)
Background
In accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act, which was added under the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Act, we are asking
our stockholders to vote upon a resolution to approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation of our NEOs as described in the
“Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and related compensation tables in this proxy statement.
As described more fully in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”) section of this proxy statement, the compensation program for our
NEOs is designed to align executive compensation with the Company’s performance and with stockholder interests, and to attract, motivate and
retain talented and experienced executive officers through competitive compensation arrangements relative to our peer group. The program seeks to
align a significant portion of executive compensation with our performance on a short-term and long-term basis through a combination of annual
base salaries, annual incentives through cash bonuses and long-term incentives through equity-based compensation. The annual incentive payout
for each NEO is based on our financial and operational performance and achievement of the executive’s individual performance goals, and each
NEO’s annual cash bonus opportunity provides for threshold, target and maximum bonus amounts, expressed as a percentage of the NEO’s base
salary. In addition, long-term incentive awards, including new grants of RSU awards, are intended to encourage actions to maximize stockholder
value. We urge our stockholders to review the CD&A section of this proxy statement and related executive compensation tables for more information.
The Board believes that the information provided above and within the CD&A section of this proxy statement demonstrates that our executive
compensation program was designed appropriately and is working to ensure that management’s interests are aligned with our stockholders’ interests
to support long-term value creation. The Board unanimously recommends that you vote, on a non-binding, advisory basis, “FOR” the
resolution set forth below approving the compensation paid to our named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to the SEC’s
compensation disclosure rules:
RESOLVED, that the stockholders of the Company approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive
officers, as disclosed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion of this proxy statement.
As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding upon the Company. However, our Board and compensation committee value the opinions
expressed by our stockholders in their vote on this proposal, and will carefully consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation
decisions for our NEOs. At the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Company’s stockholders voted in favor of holding annual say-on-pay votes,
and following the 2023 stockholder vote, our Board determined to continue to hold annual advisory say-on-pay votes. Unless our Board modifies its
determination regarding the frequency of future say-on-pay advisory votes, the next say-on-pay vote will be held at the annual meeting of
stockholders in 2026.
Vote Required
The approval of Proposal No. 3 requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes cast on this proposal at the Annual Meeting.
Recommendation
The Board unanimously recommends that stockholders vote “FOR” the approval of Proposal No. 3.

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS & PROXY STATEMENT 2025
APPENDIX A
RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”), an industry trade group, has promulgated a widely accepted non-GAAP
financial measure of operating performance known as Funds From Operations (“Nareit FFO”). Our Nareit FFO is net income (or loss) in accordance
with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) resulting from dispositions of properties, plus depreciation and amortization and impairment charges on
depreciable real property. Adjustments for our previously owned unconsolidated joint venture are calculated to reflect our proportionate share of the
joint venture’s funds from operations on the same basis.
In calculating Nareit FFO, impairment charges of depreciable real estate assets are added back even though the impairment charge may represent a
permanent decline in value due to the decreased operating performance of the applicable property. Furthermore, because gains and losses from
sales of property are excluded from Nareit FFO, it is consistent and appropriate that impairments, which are often early recognition of losses on
prospective sales of property, also be excluded.
We believe Nareit FFO Applicable to Common Shares and Dilutive Securities, when considered with the financial statements determined in
accordance with GAAP, is helpful to investors in understanding our performance because the historical accounting convention used for real estate
assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably
over time. Since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT, using historical
accounting for depreciation, could be less informative.
Core Funds From Operations (“Core FFO”) is an additional supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of our operating performance. In particular,
Core FFO provides an additional measure to compare the operating performance of different REITs without having to account for certain remaining
amortization assumptions within Nareit FFO and other unique revenue and expense items which some may consider not pertinent to measuring a
particular company’s on-going operating performance. In that regard, we have historically used Core FFO as an input to our compensation plan to
determine cash bonuses and measure the achievement of certain performance-based equity awards.
Our adjustments to Nareit FFO to arrive at Core FFO include removing the impact of (i) amortization of debt discounts and financing costs, (ii)
amortization of market-lease intangibles and inducements, net, (iii) depreciation and amortization of corporate assets, (iv) straight-line rent
adjustments, (v) gains (or losses) resulting from debt extinguishments (vi) other non-operating revenue and expense items which, in our judgment,
are not pertinent to measuring on-going operating performance, and (vii) adjustments for our previously owned unconsolidated joint venture to reflect
our share of the venture’s Core FFO on the same basis. Our calculation of Core FFO Applicable to Common Shares and Dilutive Securities does not
consider any capital expenditures.
Other REITs may use alternative methodologies for calculating similarly titled measures, which may not be comparable to our definition and
calculation of Nareit FFO Applicable to Common Shares and Dilutive Securities or Core FFO Applicable to Common Shares and Dilutive Securities.
Furthermore, Nareit FFO and Core FFO are not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as
alternatives to net income as an indication of our performance. Nareit FFO and Core FFO should not be considered as alternatives to our cash flows
from operating, investing, and financing activities. Nor should Nareit FFO and Core FFO be considered as measures of liquidity, our ability to make
cash distributions, or our ability to service our debt.
