Comrit Investments 1, LP, together with the other participants named herein (collectively, “Comrit”), has filed a preliminary proxy statement and accompanying WHITE proxy card with the Securities and Exchange Commission to be used to solicit votes for the election of its highly qualified independent director nominee at the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders of New York City REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation.

On March 17, 2022, Comrit transmitted the following to the subscribers of its website located at www.RebuildNYCREIT.com:

Dear Fellow Stockholders,

Thank you for your interest in our campaign to rebuild New York City REIT, Inc. (“NYC REIT” or the “Company”) and unlock value for all shareholders.

In order for meaningful improvements to occur at NYC REIT, we think immediate change is needed at the Company. We believe stockholders can no longer accept the status quo.

We have nominated Sharon Stern, a highly qualified, independent candidate for election to NYC REIT’s Board of Directors because she is committed to advocating for better governance and exploring all paths to enhancing stockholder value. Electing Ms. Stern, who has a stellar track record in real estate and in serving on other public company boards, will be a first step toward restoring investor confidence in NYC REIT and delivering credibility and accountability to this seemingly dysfunctional and insular boardroom.

We recently filed a preliminary proxy statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which we encourage you to read as it details the case for change at NYC REIT and outlines our proposed solution.

Thank you again for your interest and support. We look forward to continuing to engage with you in the weeks ahead.

Ziv Sapir
