~~The~~These ~~Exchange~~statements ~~Ratio~~are based on current expectations. It is important to note that 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 these forward- looking statements.

You should exercise caution in relying on forward-looking statements as they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may materially affect our future results, performance, achievements, or transactions. Information on some of these factors are contained in CPA®:18 – Global’s and W. P. Carey’s filings with the SEC and are available at the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov, including, but not limited to, Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in each company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors in each company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the proposed merger, are more fully discussed in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus that is included in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed by W. P. Carey with the SEC in connection with the proposed merger. In light of these risks, uncertainties, assumptions and factors, the forward-looking events discussed in this communication may not occur. Moreover, because we operate in a ~~special~~very ~~committee~~competitive and rapidly changing environment, new risks are likely to emerge from time to time. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward looking statements as a prediction of ~~independent~~future ~~directors~~results, which speak only as of the ~~board~~date of ~~directors~~ this communication, unless noted otherwise.

Forward-Looking Statements


		Corporate Property Associates 18 – Global Incorporated


Date:	July 6, 2022	By:	/s/ ToniAnn Sanzone
			ToniAnn Sanzone
			Chief Financial Officer

Certain of the matters discussed in this communication constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements regarding intent, belief or expectations of CPA®:18 and generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” “assume,” “outlook,” “seek,” “forecast,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: the benefits of the proposed Merger, annualized dividends, funds from operations coverage, integration plans and expected synergies, the expected benefits of the proposed Merger, anticipated future financial and operating performance and results, including estimates of growth, and the expected timing of completion of the proposed Merger.4

These statements are based on current expectations. It is important to note that 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 these forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable risks or uncertainties, like the risks related to the effects of pandemics and global outbreaks of contagious diseases (such as the current COVID-19 pandemic) or the fear of such outbreaks, could also have material adverse effects on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and prospects. You should exercise caution in relying on forward-looking statements as they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may materially affect our future results, performance, achievements, or transactions. Information on some of these factors are contained in CPA®:18’s and W. P. Carey’s filings with the SEC and are available at the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov, including, but not limited to, Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in each company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the proposed Merger, will be more fully discussed in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus that will be included in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 that CPA®:18 will file with the SEC in connection with the proposed Merger. In light of these risks, uncertainties, assumptions and factors, the forward-looking events discussed in this communication may not occur. Moreover, because we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment, new risks are likely to emerge from time to time. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements as a prediction of future results, 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®:18 does not undertake to revise or update any forward-looking statements.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. W. P. Carey intends to file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 that will include a Proxy Statement of CPA®:18/Prospectus and other relevant documents to be mailed by CPA®:18 to its security holders in connection with the proposed transactions.
