On May 29, 2012, Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. (the "Company") and Cedar Realty Trust Partnership, L.P. entered into an At-The-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the "Sales Agreement") with MLV & Co. LLC ("MLV") to sell up to 4,000,000 shares (the "Securities") of its 7.25% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series B Preferred Stock"), from time to time through an "at the market" equity offering program under which MLV will act as sales agent.

Pursuant to the Sales Agreement, the Securities may be offered and sold through MLV in transactions that are deemed to be "at the market" offerings as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange, as well as in privately negotiated transactions. The Sales Agreement provides that MLV, when MLV is acting as the Company's agent, will be entitled to compensation of up to 2.00% of the gross sales price of the Securities sold through MLV from time to time under the Sales Agreement. We may also sell shares of Series B Preferred Stock to MLV as principal for its own account at a price agreed upon at the time of sale. The Company has no obligation to sell any of the Securities under the Sales Agreement, and may at any time suspend solicitation and offers under the Sales Agreement.

The Securities will be issued pursuant to the Company's shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-179956). The Company filed a prospectus supplement, dated May 29, 2012 with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities.

MLV and its affiliates have provided, and may in the future provide, various investment banking and advisory services to us from time to time for which they have received, and may in the future receive, customary fees and expenses. MLV previously acted as representative of the several underwriters in a public offering of 400,000 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock completed on May 22, 2012, for which MLV and the other underwriters received customary compensation.

A copy of the Sales Agreement is attached as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated by reference herein.

On May 29, 2012, the Company filed Articles Supplementary with the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation (the "Department") classifying an additional 5,000,000 shares of the Company's authorized preferred stock as additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock.
