WARNING CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws. These forward-looking statements are based upon OPI's present intent, beliefs and expectations, but these statements and the implications of these statements are not guaranteed to occur and may not occur for various reasons, some of which are beyond OPI's control.

For example, this press release states that OPI expects to retain approximately $3.0 million of cash annually as a result of suspending the quarterly cash distribution. However, OPI may not retain the cash it currently expects from the dividend suspension or otherwise preserve its liquidity. OPI's distribution rate may be set and reset from time to time by OPI's Board of Trustees. Further, OPI's Board of Trustees considers many factors when setting or resetting OPI's distribution rate, including OPI's funds from operations and normalized funds from operations, cash available for distribution, requirements to maintain OPI's qualification for taxation as a REIT, the then current and expected needs and availability of cash to pay OPI's obligations and fund its investments, limitations in OPI's debt agreements, the availability to OPI of debt and equity capital, OPI's expectation of its future capital requirements and operating performance, OPI's expected needs for and availability of cash to pay its obligations and other factors deemed relevant by OPI's Board of Trustees in its discretion. Accordingly, OPI cannot be sure whether it will pay future distributions on its common shares or as to the rate at which any future distributions will be paid.

The information contained in OPI's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, including under the caption "Risk Factors" in OPI's periodic reports, or incorporated therein, identifies other important factors that could cause differences from OPI's forward-looking statements.

Except as required by law, OPI does not intend to update or change any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
