The information in this Item 7.01 and Exhibit 99.2 attached hereto is intended to be furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Item 7.01. Other Events.

On February16, 2018, Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a cooperation agreement (the “Cooperation Agreement”) with Snow Park Capital Partners, LP and Jeffrey Pierce (collectively, “Snow Park”).

Under the Cooperation Agreement, the Nominating/Governance Committee (the “Committee”) of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) has agreed to engage a nationally recognized director search firm to conduct a search to identify as promptly as practicable a new independent director (the “New Director”) to serve on the Board. Under the Cooperation Agreement, Snow Park will have the right to meet with and interview the candidate identified by the search firm and selected by the Committee. Snow Park will provide its input on such candidate to the Committee, but the Board has the exclusive power to choose and appoint the New Director. In addition, at the Company’s 2018 annual meeting of stockholders, the Board will seek stockholder approval to amend its charter to provide stockholders with the ability to amend its bylaws and, if approved, will adopt a corresponding provision in the bylaws.

Under the Cooperation Agreement, at the 2018 annual meeting, Snow Park has agreed to vote all of the Company’s common stock owned by Snow Park in favor of the directors nominated by the Board, the charter amendment and otherwise in accordance with the Board’s recommendations, provided that in the event Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“ISS”) recommends otherwise with respect to certain proposals, Snow Park shall be permitted to vote in accordance with ISS’ recommendation with respect to those proposals, and Snow Park shall be permitted to vote in its sole discretion with respect to an Extraordinary Transaction (as defined below).

to the Cooperation Agreement, Snow Park is subject to certain standstill restrictions, which prohibit Snow Park from, among other things, (i)engaging in any solicitation of proxies or consents with respect to the election or removal of directors; (ii)forming or joining a “group” (within the meaning of Section13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) with respect to the voting securities of the Company; (iii)acquiring voting securities of the Company resulting in Snow Park’s beneficial ownership of more than 3.9% of the Company’s outstanding common stock; (iv)making or participating in any tender offer, exchange offer, merger, consolidation, acquisition, business combination, sale of a division, sale of substantially all assets, recapitalization, restructuring, liquidation, dissolution or extraordinary transaction involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries (an “Extraordinary Transaction”); (v) seeking, alone or in concert with others, representation on the Board or the removal of any member of the Board; or (vi)making any stockholder proposal, in each case, subject to certain limited exceptions. These standstill restrictions will expire 30 days prior to the first day of the Company’s stockholder director nomination period for the 2019 annual meeting of stockholders, as established to the Company’s bylaws.

The foregoing description of the Cooperation Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full Cooperation Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
