As previously disclosed, Innovative
Industrial Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) and its operating partnership, IIP Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware
limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), entered into separate equity distribution agreements (collectively,
as amended, the “Existing Equity Distribution Agreements”) with each of BTIG, LLC, Jefferies LLC, Piper Sandler &
Co., and Roth Capital Partners, LLC (or certain of their respective affiliates or agents), dated May 24, 2024 and amended on February
26, 2025, and each of Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (or certain of their respective
affiliates or agents), dated May 13, 2025, in each case acting as sales agents, and in certain cases, as forward sellers and/or forward
purchasers, pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time, shares of (i) its common stock, $0.001 par value per
share, and (ii) its 9.00% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, having an aggregate offering price
of up to $500,000,000 (the “Shares”). The Existing Equity Distribution Agreements provide that, in addition to the
issuance and sale of the Shares through the sales agents, the Company may enter into forward sale agreements under separate master forward
sale agreements (collectively, the “Existing Master Forward Sale Agreements”) and related supplemental confirmations
between the Company and a forward seller or its affiliate or agent. On August 31, 2026, the Company received notice of termination of
the Existing Equity Distribution Agreement among the Company, the Operating Partnership and Jefferies LLC, in accordance with its terms.
Accordingly, the Company will not offer or sell any additional Shares under that agreement.
On August 31, 2026, the Company
and the Operating Partnership entered into an additional equity distribution agreement (the “Additional Equity Distribution Agreement”
and collectively with the Existing Equity Distribution Agreements, the “Equity Distribution Agreements”) with Huntington
Securities, Inc. (“Huntington”), as sales agent, forward seller and/or forward purchaser, on substantially the same
terms and conditions as the Existing Equity Distribution Agreements. The Additional Equity Distribution Agreement provides that, in addition
to the issuance and sale of the Shares through the sales agent, the Company may enter into a forward sale agreement under a separate master
forward sale agreement and related supplemental confirmation between the Company and Huntington, on substantially the same terms and conditions
as the Existing Master Forward Sale Agreements (together with the Existing Master Forward Sale Agreements, the “Master Forward
Sale Agreements”).
The Shares will be offered
and sold pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-285148), which became effective upon filing
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 21, 2025, the base prospectus dated February 21,
2025, and the related prospectus supplement dated February 26, 2025, as supplemented by Supplement No. 1 dated May 13, 2025, Supplement
No. 2 dated May 22, 2026 and Supplement No. 3 dated August 31, 2026 (collectively, the “ATM Prospectus”). The ATM Prospectus
may be further amended or supplemented from time to time.
This Current Report on Form
8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Shares nor shall there be any sale of the Shares
in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws
of any such state.
The foregoing descriptions
of the Equity Distribution Agreements and Master Forward Sale Agreements and supplemental confirmations do not purport to be complete
and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements, which are filed as Exhibits 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 to
