Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements:

Certain of the matters discussed in this communication constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, both as amended by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements regarding intent, belief or expectations of CPA:17 and can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “assume,” “outlook,” “seek,” “plan,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “forecast,” and other comparable terms. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the anticipated timing of the closing of the Merger. These statements are based on current expectations, and actual results could be materially different from those projected in such forward-looking statements. There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Discussions of some of these other important factors and assumptions are contained in CPA:17’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and are available at the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov, including Item 1A. Risk Factors in CPA:17’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the Merger, are more fully discussed in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus that is included in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 that CPA:17 and W. P. Carey filed with the SEC in connection with the Merger on July 27, 2018, as amended. In light of these risks, uncertainties, assumptions and factors, the forward-looking events discussed in this communication may not occur. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this communication, unless noted otherwise. Except as required under the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC, CPA:17 does not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to the forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this communication or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
