As set forth in the proxy statement of Cedar Shopping Centers, Inc. (the "Company") in connection with its annual meeting of stockholders scheduled to be held June 12, 2007, the Company has proposed to increase the number of authorized shares of common and preferred stock. In connection with such proposal, the Company has agreed with its stockholders that if it issues any preferred stock in the future:

           1.     the preferred stock will not be used as, or in conjunction with, an anti-takeover defense (including potential mergers, in connection with an existing or future shareholder rights plan, or by designating terms, or issuing shares in transactions for the purposes of aiding management in defending against an unsolicited bid for control of the company) unless approved by the shareholders at that time;

           2.      the preferred stock will not be issued to any individual group for the purpose of creating a block of voting power to support management on controversial issues without receiving shareholder approval; and

           3.      if the preferred stock is to have voting rights, the shares will have the same voting rights as the common stock (including upon conversion).

Management has committed to seek shareholder approval at its 2008 annual meeting of stockholders to amend its certificate of incorporation to effectuate the foregoing.
