Diversified Portfolio Inflation Public Listing Redemption Feature Transparency

The prices of produce crops have historically outpaced inflation. We primarily own farms
that grow produce crops. Also, we seek to structure our leases with built-in contractual rent
escalators. We have averaged over a 9.0% increase in rental rates on all lease renewals since our
3
IPO in January 2013.
We anticipate applying to list the Shares on NASDAQ or another national securities exchange within one calendar year after the offering ends, but there can be no assurance that we will achieve this objective. There is currently no public market for the Shares, and we do not expect a public market to develop prior to listing the Shares on an exchange, if at all.
Each investor may annually request redemption of all or a portion of his/her Shares at $23.50 per Share. The annual pool we will make available for satisfying redemptions is limited to 5% of the total number of Shares sold in that year from January to November multiplied by $25. This redemption cap may limit your ability to redeem some or any of your Shares.
While the Shares are not listed on any exchange, our Common Stock is listed on NASDAQ under the symbol “LAND”. As such, we file annual, quarterly, and periodic reports with the SEC. Because the Shares are not traded, it may be difficult to determine the value of the Shares or your return on investment.

3. There can be no guarantee that rental rates on lease renewals will continue to increase.

RISK FACTORS
Please consult the prospectus supplement for this offering for a recitation of the risk factors of this offering. If any of the risks contained in or incorporated by reference into the prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus develop into actual events, our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, FFO, adjusted funds from operations or our prospects could be materially and adversely affected, we may be unable to timely pay the dividends accrued on the Series B Preferred Stock, the value of the Series B Preferred Stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment. In addition, new risks may emerge at any time and we cannot predict such risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect our financial performance. Some statements in the prospectus supplement, including statements in the risk factors, constitute forward-looking statements. See the “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” sections in the prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and in our regular filings with the SEC for additional risks which may affect us or the shares of our Series B Preferred Stock (the “Shares”).
• There will initially be no public market for the Shares as we do not intend to apply for quotation on NASDAQ until after the Termination Date, and even after listing, if achieved, a liquid secondary trading market may not develop and the features of the Shares may not provide you with favorable liquidity options.
• The Shares will not be rated.
• Dividend payments on the Series B Preferred Stock are not guaranteed. • We operate as a holding company dependent upon the asset and operations of our subsidiaries, and because of our structure, we may not be able to generate the funds necessary to make distributions on the Shares.
• We will be required to terminate this offering if both our common stock and the Series A Preferred Stock are no longer listed on NASDAQ or another national securities exchange.
• The ability to redeem shares of Shares may be limited.
• The Shares will bear a risk of redemption by us.
• The cash distributions you receive may be less frequent or lower in
amount than you expect.
• Upon the sale of any individual property, holders of Shares do not have a priority over holders of our common stock regarding return of capital. • Your percentage of ownership may become diluted if we incur additional debt or issue new shares of stock or other securities, and incurrence of indebtedness and issuances of additional preferred stock or other securities by us may further subordinate the rights of the holders of our common stock and preferred stock.
• Our ability to pay dividends and/or redeem shares of Shares may be
limited by Maryland law.
• Our charter contains restrictions upon ownership and transfer of the Shares, which may impair the ability of holders to acquire or dispose of the Shares.
• Holders of the Shares will be subject to inflation risk. • An investment in the Shares bears interest rate risk. • Holders of the Shares will bear reinvestment risk. • Holders of Shares will have extremely limited voting rights. • Our management will have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may allocate the net proceeds from this offering in ways that you and other stockholders may not approve. • We may be unable to invest a significant portion of the net proceeds of this offering on acceptable terms.
• We are an “emerging growth company” and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our Shares less attractive to investors. We elected to take advantage of the option to delay adoption of new or revised accounting standards until they are required to be adopted by private companies; consequently, our current and prior financial statements may not be comparable to those of other public companies.
• We have paid, may continue to pay, or may in the future pay, distributions from offering proceeds, borrowings or the sale of assets to the extent our cash flow from operations or earnings are not sufficient to fund declared distributions. Rates of distribution to holders of our common stock and preferred stock will not necessarily be indicative of our operating results. If we make distributions from sources other than our cash flows from operations or earnings, we will have fewer funds available for the acquisition of properties and your overall return may be reduced.
• If the properties we acquire or invest in do not produce the cash flow that we expect in order to meet our REIT minimum distribution requirement, we may decide to borrow funds to meet the REIT minimum distribution requirements, which could adversely affect our overall financial performance.
• Gladstone Securities, the dealer manager in this offering, is our affiliate, and we established the offering price and other terms for the Shares pursuant to discussions between us and our affiliated dealer manager; as a result, the actual value of your investment may be substantially less than what you pay.
• Payment of fees to our Adviser and its affiliates, including our affiliated dealer manager will reduce the cash available for investment and distribution and will increase the risk that you will not be able to recover the amount of your investment in our shares of Shares.
• If you fail to meet the fiduciary and other standards under ERISA or the Code as a result of an investment in this offering, you could be subject to liability and civil or criminal penalties.
