. SACHEM CAPITAL CORP. The Company will furnish without charge to each shareholder who so requests, a summary of the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock of the Company and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and rights, and the variations in rights, preferences and limitations determined for each series, which are fixed by the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended, and the resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company, and the authority of the Board of Directors to determine variations for future series. Such request may be made to the office of the Secretary of the Company or to the transfer agent. The Board of Directors may require the owner of a lost or destroyed stock certificate, or his legal representatives, to give the Company a bond to indemnify it and its transfer agents and registrars against any claim that may be made against them on account of the alleged loss or destruction of any such certificate. The shares represented by this certificate are subject to restrictions on Beneficial and Constructive Ownership and Transfer of Capital Stock for the purpose of the Company’s maintenance of its status as a Real Estate Investment Trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Subject to certain further restrictions and except as expressly provided in the Company's Charter, (i) no Person may Beneficially or Constructively Own the Company’s common shares in excess of the Common Stock Ownership Limit, unless such Person is an Excepted Holder (in which case the Excepted Holder Limit shall be applicable); (ii) no Person may Beneficially or Constructively Own shares of Capital Stock of the Company in excess of the Aggregate Stock Ownership Limit, unless such Person is an Excepted Holder (in which case the Excepted Holder Limit shall be applicable); (iii) no Person may Beneficially or Constructively Own Capital Stock that would result in the Company being "closely held" under Section 856(h) of the Code or otherwise cause the Company to fail to qualify as a REIT; and (iv) no Person may Transfer shares of Capital Stock if such Transfer would result in the Capital Stock of the Company being owned by fewer than 100 Persons. Any Person who Beneficially or Constructively Owns or attempts to Beneficially or Constructively Own shares of Capital Stock which causes or will cause a Person to Beneficially or Constructively Own shares of Capital Stock in excess or in violation of the above limitations must immediately notify the Company. If any of the restrictions on transfer or ownership are violated, the shares of Capital Stock represented hereby will be automatically transferred to a Trustee of a Trust for the benefit of one or more Charitable Beneficiaries. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain events, attempted Transfers in violation of the restrictions described above may be void ab initio. The Common Stock Ownership Limit and the Aggregate Stock Ownership Limit are both 4.99%. All capitalized terms in this legend have the meanings defined in the Company’s Charter, as the same may be amended from time to time, a copy of which, including the restrictions on transfer and ownership, will be furnished to each holder of Capital Stock of the Company on request and without charge.

If your shares or units are covered by the legislation, and you requested to sell or transfer the shares or units using a specific cost basis calculation method, then we have processed as you requested. If you did not specify a cost basis calculation method, then we have defaulted to the first in, first out (FIFO) method. Please consult your tax advisor if you need additional information about cost basis. If you do not keep in contact with the issuer or do not have any activity in your account for the time period specified by state law, your property may become subject to state unclaimed property laws and transferred to the appropriate state.
