EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2021 of Brandywine Realty Trust (the “Parent Company”) and Brandywine Operating Partnership L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”). The Parent Company is a Maryland real estate investment trust, or REIT, that owns its assets and conducts its operations through the Operating Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership, and subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company, the Operating Partnership and their consolidated subsidiaries are collectively referred to in this report as the “Company”. In addition, as used in this report, terms such as “we”, “us”, and “our” may refer to the Company, the Parent Company, or the Operating Partnership.
The Parent Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and, as of June 30, 2021, owned a 99.5% interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining 0.5% interest consists of common units of limited partnership interest issued by the Operating Partnership to third parties in exchange for contributions of properties to the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company has full and complete authority over the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day operations and management.
Management operates the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership as one enterprise. The management of the Parent Company consists of the same members as the management of the Operating Partnership.
As general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and the Parent Company does not have significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements. The separate discussions of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership in this report should be read in conjunction with each other to understand the results of the Company's operations on a consolidated basis and how management operates the Company.
The Company believes that combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership into a single report will:
•facilitate a better understanding by the investors of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling them to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;
•remove duplicative disclosures and provide a more straightforward presentation in light of the fact that a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership; and
•create time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.
There are few differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, which are reflected in the footnote disclosures in this report. The Company believes it is important to understand the differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how these entities operate as an interrelated consolidated company. The Parent Company is a REIT, whose only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the Operating Partnership. As a result, the Parent Company does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing equity from time to time (and contributing the net proceeds of such issuances to the Operating Partnership) and guaranteeing the debt obligations of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all the assets of the Company, including the Company's ownership interests in the real estate ventures described below. The Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the Company’s business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for net proceeds from equity issuances by the Parent Company, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units, the Operating Partnership generates the capital required by the Company’s business through the Operating Partnership’s operations, by the Operating Partnership’s incurrence of indebtedness (directly and through subsidiaries) and through the issuance of partnership units of the Operating Partnership or equity interests in subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership.
The equity and non-controlling interests in the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership’s equity are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership. The common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership are accounted for as partners’ equity in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements while the common units of limited partnership interests held by parties other than the Parent Company are presented as non-controlling interests in the Parent Company’s financial statements. The differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership’s equity relate to the differences in the equity issued at the Parent Company and Operating Partnership levels.
To help investors understand the significant differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, this report presents the following as separate notes or sections for each of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership:
2
•Consolidated Financial Statements; and
•Notes to the Parent Company’s and Operating Partnership’s Equity.
This report also includes separate Item 4. (Controls and Procedures) disclosures and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications for each of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership in order to establish that the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of each entity have made the requisite certifications and that the Parent Company and Operating Partnership are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and 18 U.S.C. § 1350.
In order to highlight the differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, the separate sections in this report for the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership specifically refer to the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership. In the sections that combine disclosures of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to such disclosures as those of the Company. Although the Operating Partnership is generally the entity that directly or indirectly enters into contracts and real estate ventures and holds assets and incurs debt, reference to the Company is appropriate because the business is one enterprise and the Parent Company operates the business through the Operating Partnership.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION OF THE PARENT COMPANY AND THE OPERATING PARTNERSHIP
Brandywine Realty Trust (the "Parent Company") is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) engaged in the acquisition, development, redevelopment, ownership, management, and operation of a portfolio of office and mixed-use properties. The Parent Company owns its assets and conducts its operations through Brandywine Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") and subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and, as of June 30, 2021, owned a 99.5% interest in the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company’s common shares of beneficial interest are publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “BDN”. The Parent Company, the Operating Partnership, and their consolidated subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the "Company".
As of June 30, 2021, the Company owned 81 properties that contained an aggregate of approximately 13.7 million net rentable square feet (collectively, the “Properties”). The Company’s core portfolio of operating properties (the “Core Properties”) excludes development properties, redevelopment properties, and properties held for sale. The Properties were comprised of the following as of June 30, 2021:

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consist solely of normal recurring matters, and result in a fair statement of the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2021, the results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Parent Company’s and the Operating Partnership’s consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in their combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on February 24, 2021.
The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.
17
The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 contains a discussion of its significant accounting policies under Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies". There have been no significant changes in the Company's significant accounting policies since December 31, 2020.
Change in Depreciable Lives of Real Estate Investments
In accordance with its policy, the Company reviews the estimated useful lives of its real estate investments on an ongoing basis. Pursuant to our Broadmoor master development plans, the estimated useful lives of seven properties in Austin, Texas were modified to reflect the estimated periods during which these assets will remain in service. The estimated useful lives of the properties that were approximately 35 years were decreased to approximately 12 years. The effect of this change in estimate was a $3.3 million increase in depreciation expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments provide practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance is optional and is effective between March 12, 2020 and December 31, 2022. The guidance may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.
3. REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS
As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the gross carrying value of the operating properties was as follows (in thousands):

Dispositions
On February 2, 2021, the Company contributed its investment in a 99-year prepaid leasehold interest in a one-acre land parcel held for development at 3025 JFK Boulevard in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to a newly formed joint venture with an unaffiliated third party. The project is part of the Schuylkill Yards master development. The transaction valued the Company's investment in the project at $34.8 million and resulted in deconsolidation of the property and conversion of Brandywine Opportunity Fund, L.P. to a real estate venture ("3025 JFK Venture"). The Company recorded its investment at fair value and recognized a gain of $2.0 million in "Net gain on sale of undepreciated real estate" on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 4, "Investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures," for further information.
Held for Sale
As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company determined that the sale of two parcels of land within the Other segment totaling 35.2 acres was probable and classified these properties as held for sale. As such, $7.3 million was classified as “Assets held for sale, net” on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company closed on the sale of the two parcels of land on July 6, 2021 for an aggregate sales price of $8.9 million.
4. INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED REAL ESTATE VENTURES
As of June 30, 2021, the Company held ownership interests in ten unconsolidated real estate ventures for a net aggregate investment balance of $422.3 million, which includes a negative investment balance in one unconsolidated real estate venture of $19.1 million, reflected within "Other liabilities" on the consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2021, five of the real estate ventures owned properties that contained an aggregate of approximately 8.4 million net rentable square feet of office space; two real estate ventures owned 1.4 acres of land held for development; one real estate venture owned 1.0 acres of land in active development; one real estate venture owned a mixed used tower comprised of 250 apartment units and 0.2 million net rentable square feet of office/retail space; and one real estate venture owned a residential tower that contained 321 apartment units.
The Company accounts for its interests in the unconsolidated real estate ventures, which range from 15% to 70%, using the equity method. Certain of the unconsolidated real estate ventures are subject to specified priority allocations of distributable cash.
18
The Company earned management fees from the unconsolidated real estate ventures of $2.1 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $4.1 million and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
The Company earned leasing commissions from the unconsolidated real estate ventures of $0.6 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $1.9 million and $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
The Company had outstanding accounts receivable balances from the unconsolidated real estate ventures of $1.9 million and $1.2 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
The amounts reflected in the following tables (except for the Company’s share of equity in income) are based on the financial information of the individual unconsolidated real estate ventures.
The following is a summary of the financial position of the unconsolidated real estate ventures in which the Company held interests as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (in thousands):
| June 30, 2021 | December 31, 2020 | ||||||||||
| Net property | $ | 1,559,984 | $ | 1,520,804 | |||||||

| Debt, net | 955,310 | 956,688 | |||||||||
| Equity (a) | 734,831 | 719,872 | |||||||||
(a)This amount does not include the effect of the basis difference between the Company's historical cost basis and the basis recorded at the real estate venture level, which is typically amortized over the life of the related assets and liabilities. Basis differentials occur from the impairment of investments, purchases of third party interests in existing real estate ventures and upon the transfer of assets that were previously owned by the Company into a real estate venture. In addition, certain acquisition, transaction and other costs may not be reflected in the net assets at the real estate venture level.
The following is a summary of results of operations of the unconsolidated real estate ventures in which the Company held interests during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

3025 JFK Venture
On February 2, 2021, the Company contributed its investment in a 99-year prepaid leasehold interest in a one-acre land parcel held for development at 3025 JFK Boulevard in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to the 3025 JFK Venture. The Company's initial investment in this real estate venture at February 2, 2021 was $34.8 million. The real estate venture was formed to develop a 570,000 square foot mixed-use building at property under the long-term ground lease. The estimated project cost is approximately $287.3 million, and the joint venture partner has agreed, subject to customary funding conditions, to fund up to approximately $45.2 million of the project costs in exchange for a 45% preferred equity interest in the venture and the Company will retain a 55% preferred equity interest. In addition to its $34.8 million credit for contribution of the leasehold interest at 3025 JFK Venture, the Company has agreed to fund an estimated $20.5 million of project costs, of which
19
$11.8 million has been funded as of June 30, 2021. On July 23, 2021, the 3025 JFK Venture closed on a $186.7 million construction loan, which bears interest at 3.75% per annum and matures in July 2025.
Based on the facts and circumstances at the formation of the 3025 JFK Venture, the Company determined that the venture is not a variable interest entity. As a result, the Company used the voting interest model under the accounting standard for consolidation in order to determine whether to consolidate the 3025 JFK Venture. Based upon each member's substantive participating rights over the activities of the 3025 JFK Venture under the related agreements, the Company does not have a controlling interest in the project as the third party investor holds substantive participating rights in the property. Therefore, the Company deconsolidated the project and the venture is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. As a result, the Company measured its equity interest at fair value based on the fair value of the project. Since the Company retains a non-controlling interest in the 3025 JFK Venture and there are no other facts and circumstances that preclude sale recognition, the contribution qualifies as the sale of a nonfinancial asset under the relevant guidance.
5. DEBT AND PREFERRED EQUITY INVESTMENTS
As of June 30, 2021, the Company held one debt investment and one preferred equity investment in entities owning real estate assets. The Company accounts for these mandatorily redeemable investments as notes receivable, which are included within “Other assets” on the consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2021, all debt and preferred equity investments were performing in accordance with their respective terms and remain on accrual status.
Austin Preferred Equity Investment
On December 31, 2020, the Company invested $50.0 million in exchange for a preferred equity interest in a single-purpose entity that owns two stabilized office buildings located in Austin, Texas. The preferred equity interest accrues a 9.0% annual return, compounded and paid monthly. The investment is required to be redeemed no later than December 31, 2023 (subject to a one-year extension option).
1919 Venture Note Receivable
During 2018, each of the Company and the other equity partner in 1919 Venture, an unconsolidated real estate venture, provided a $44.4 million mortgage loan to 1919 Venture and, as a result, the Company recorded a $44.4 million related-party note receivable from 1919 Venture. The loan bears interest at a fixed 4.0% per annum interest rate with a scheduled maturity on June 25, 2023. 1919 Venture used the proceeds from the loans to repay its then outstanding $88.8 million construction loan.

The interest rate and facility fee are subject to adjustment upon a change in the Company’s unsecured debt ratings. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the weighted-average interest rate on Unsecured Credit Facility borrowings was 1.2% resulting in $0.2 million of interest expense.
The Parent Company unconditionally guarantees the unsecured debt obligations of the Operating Partnership (or is a co-borrower with the Operating Partnership) but does not by itself incur unsecured indebtedness. The Parent Company has no material assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership.
The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants as of June 30, 2021. Certain of the covenants restrict the Company’s ability to obtain alternative sources of capital.

9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial assets and liabilities recorded on the consolidated balance sheets are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:
•Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access;
•Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals; and
22
•Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which is typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity or information.
The Company determined the fair values disclosed below using available market information and discounted cash flow analyses as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The discount rate used in calculating fair value is the sum of the current risk free rate and the risk premium on the date of measurement of the instruments or obligations. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and to develop the related estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize upon disposition. The use of different estimates and valuation methodologies may have a material effect on the fair value amounts shown. The Company believes that the carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 approximate the fair values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other assets and liabilities, accounts payable and accrued expenses because they are short-term in duration. The following are financial instruments for which the Company’s estimates of fair value differ from the carrying amounts (in thousands):
| June 30, 2021 | December 31, 2020 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Carrying Amount (a) | Fair Value | Carrying Amount (a) | Fair Value | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Unsecured notes payable | $ | 1,502,635 | $ | 1,635,390 | $ | 1,502,901 | $ | 1,607,310 | |||||||||||||||
| Variable rate debt | $ | 385,956 | $ | 367,244 | $ | 327,694 | $ | 308,838 | |||||||||||||||
| Notes receivable (b) | $ | 94,430 | $ | 96,754 | $ | 94,430 | $ | 97,372 | |||||||||||||||
(a)Net of deferred financing costs of $6.5 million and $7.2 million for unsecured notes payable and $0.7 million and $0.9 million for variable rate debt as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020
(b)For further detail, refer to Note 5, ''Debt and Preferred Equity Investments."
The Company used quoted market prices as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 to value the unsecured notes payable and, as such, categorized them as Level 2.
The inputs utilized to determine the fair value of the Company’s variable rate debt are categorized as Level 3. The fair value of the variable rate debt was determined using a discounted cash flow model that considered borrowing rates available to the Company for loans with similar terms and characteristics.
The inputs utilized to determine fair value of the Company's notes receivable are unobservable and, as such, were categorized as Level 3. Fair value was determined using a discounted cash flow model that considered the contractual interest and principal payments discounted at a blended interest rate of the notes receivable.
For the Company’s level 3 financial instruments for which fair value is disclosed, an increase in the discount rate used to determine fair value would result in a decrease to the fair value. Conversely, a decrease in the discount rate would result in an increase to the fair value.
Disclosure about the fair value of financial instruments is based upon pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the fair value amounts, such amounts were not comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since June 30, 2021. Current estimates of fair value may differ from the amounts presented herein.

The Company measures its derivative instruments at fair value and records them in “Other assets” and (“Other liabilities”) on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. The Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that the inputs utilized to determine the fair value of derivative instruments are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Disclosure about the fair value of derivative instruments is based upon pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since June 30, 2021. Current estimates of fair value may differ from the amounts presented herein.
11. LIMITED PARTNERS' NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS IN THE PARENT COMPANY
Noncontrolling interests in the Parent Company’s financial statements relate to redeemable common limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership held by parties other than the Parent Company and properties which are consolidated but not wholly owned by the Operating Partnership.
Operating Partnership

Net operating income (“NOI”) is a non-GAAP financial measure, which we define as total revenue less property operating expenses, real estate taxes and third party management expenses. Property operating expenses that are included in determining NOI consist of costs that are necessary and allocable to our operating properties such as utilities, property-level salaries, repairs and maintenance, property insurance and management fees. General and administrative expenses that are not reflected in NOI primarily consist of corporate-level salaries, amortization of share awards and professional fees that are incurred as part of corporate office management. NOI presented by the Company may not be comparable to NOI reported by other companies that define NOI differently. NOI is the primary measure that is used by the Company’s management to evaluate the operating performance of the Company’s real estate assets by segment. The Company believes NOI provides useful information to investors regarding the financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level. While NOI is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance of real estate investment trusts, it does not represent cash flow from operations or net income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to those measures in evaluating our liquidity or operating performance. NOI does not reflect interest expenses, real estate impairment losses, depreciation and amortization costs, capital expenditures and leasing costs. The Company believes that net income (loss), as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure. The following is a reconciliation of consolidated net income, as defined by GAAP, to consolidated NOI, (in thousands):

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
The Company is involved from time to time in litigation on various matters, including disputes with tenants, vendors and disputes arising out of agreements to purchase or sell properties. Given the nature of the Company’s business activities, these lawsuits are considered routine to the conduct of its business. The result of any particular lawsuit cannot be predicted, because of the very nature of litigation, the litigation process and its adversarial nature, and the jury system. The Company will establish reserves for specific legal proceedings when it determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and when the amount of loss is reasonably estimable. The Company does not expect that the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from such legal actions will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
Environmental
As an owner of real estate, the Company is subject to various environmental laws of federal, state, and local governments. The Company’s compliance with existing laws has not had a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations, and the Company does not believe it will have a material adverse effect in the future. However, the Company cannot predict the impact of unforeseen environmental contingencies or new or changed laws or regulations on its current Properties or on properties that the Company may acquire.
28
Debt Guarantees
As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s unconsolidated real estate ventures had aggregate indebtedness of $960.4 million. These loans are generally mortgage or construction loans, most of which are nonrecourse to the Company, except for customary recourse carve-outs. As of June 30, 2021, the $150.0 million construction loan obtained by 4040 Wilson, located in Arlington, Virginia, for which the Company has a payment guarantee up to $41.3 million, is recourse to the Company. In addition, during construction undertaken by the unconsolidated real estate ventures, including 4040 Wilson, the Company has provided, and expects to continue to provide, cost overrun and completion guarantees, as well as customary environmental indemnities and guarantees of customary exceptions to nonrecourse provisions in loan agreements. In the agreement with its partner in the 3025 JFK Venture, the Company agreed to provide cost overrun and completion guaranties for the project under development. With respect to the construction loan obtained by 3025 JFK Venture on July 23, 2021, the Company has also provided a carry guarantee and limited payment guarantee up to 25% of the principal balance.
Impact of Natural Disasters and Casualty
The Company carries liability insurance to mitigate its exposure to certain losses, including those relating to property damage. The Company records the estimated amount of expected insurance proceeds for property damage and other losses incurred as an asset (typically a receivable from the insurer) and income up to the amount of the losses incurred when receipt of insurance proceeds is deemed probable. Any amount of insurance recovery in excess of the amount of the losses is considered a gain contingency and is not recorded until the proceeds are received.
In February 2021, one of the Company's properties in Austin, Texas sustained damage from the winter storms and resulting power grid failures. As a result of the damage, during the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded a fixed asset write-off totaling $1.2 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company has recorded an estimated $7.2 million of restoration costs, of which $2.6 million is included in Accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2021. The Company has also sustained business interruption loss of $3.9 million related to unpaid rent, which is also fully covered under the insurance policy. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company has received $13.0 million of insurance proceeds, resulting in full recovery of the costs incurred to date. The $0.7 million of insurance proceeds received in excess of the fixed asset write-off, total business interruption, and total estimated restoration cost during the six months ended June 30, 2021 is included in Other income on the consolidated statement of operations.
Other Commitments or Contingencies
In connection with the Schuylkill Yards Project, the Company entered into a neighborhood engagement program and, as of June 30, 2021, had $7.6 million of future fixed contractual obligations. The Company also committed to fund additional contributions under the program. As of June 30, 2021, the Company estimates that these additional contributions, which are not fixed under the terms of agreement, will be $2.5 million.
In connection with the formation of the Commerce Square Venture, the Company has committed to investing an additional $20.0 million of preferred equity in the properties on a pari passu basis with its joint venture partner of which $2.1 million has been contributed by the Company as of June 30, 2021.
The Company invests in its properties and regularly incurs capital expenditures in the ordinary course of business to maintain the properties. The Company believes that such expenditures enhance its competitiveness. The Company also enters into construction, utility and service contracts in the ordinary course of business which may extend beyond one year. These contracts typically provide for cancellation with insignificant or no cancellation penalties.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “1995 Act”) provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other materials filed by us with the SEC (as well as information included in oral or other written statements made by us) contain statements that are forward-looking, including statements relating to business and real estate development activities, acquisitions, dispositions, future capital expenditures, financing sources, governmental regulation (including environmental regulation) and competition. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions of the 1995 Act. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “should” and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our expectations will be achieved. As forward-looking statements, these statements involve important risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expected results and, accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf. Factors that might cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, many of which may be more likely to impact us as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, are set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Accordingly, we caution readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We assume no obligation to update or supplement forward-looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events.
The discussion that follows is based primarily on our consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and should be read along with the consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report. The ability to compare one period to another may be significantly affected by acquisitions completed, development properties placed in service and dispositions made during those periods.
OVERVIEW
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we owned and managed properties within five segments: (1) Philadelphia Central Business District (“Philadelphia CBD”), (2) Pennsylvania Suburbs, (3) Austin, Texas, (4) Metropolitan Washington, D.C., and (5) Other. The Philadelphia CBD segment includes properties located in the City of Philadelphia in Pennsylvania. The Pennsylvania Suburbs segment includes properties in Chester, Delaware and Montgomery counties in the Philadelphia suburbs. The Austin, Texas segment includes properties in the City of Austin, Texas. The Metropolitan Washington, D.C. segment includes properties in Northern Virginia, Washington, D.C. and Southern Maryland. The Other segment includes properties in Camden County, New Jersey and New Castle County, Delaware. In addition to the five segments, our corporate group is responsible for cash and investment management, development of certain real estate properties during the construction period, and certain other general support functions.
We generate cash and revenue from leases of space at our Properties and, to a lesser extent, from the management and development of properties owned by third parties and from investments in the unconsolidated real estate ventures. Factors that we evaluate when leasing space include rental rates, costs of tenant improvements, tenant creditworthiness, current and expected operating costs, the length of the lease term, vacancy levels and demand for space. We also generate cash through sales of assets, including assets that we do not view as core to our business plan, either because of location or expected growth potential, and assets that are commanding premium prices from third party investors.
Our financial and operating performance is dependent upon the demand for office, residential, parking, and retail space in our markets, our leasing results, our acquisition, disposition and development activity, our financing activity, our cash requirements and economic and market conditions, including prevailing interest rates.
We continue to closely monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business, including how it is impacting our tenants, employees, and business partners. Adverse changes in economic conditions, including the ongoing effects of the global COVID-19 pandemic, could result in a reduction of the availability of financing and potentially in higher borrowing costs. Vacancy rates may increase, and rental rates and rent collection rates may decline, during the remainder of 2021 and possibly beyond as the current economic climate may negatively impact tenants.
Overall economic conditions, including but not limited to higher unemployment and deteriorating financial and credit markets, could have a dampening effect on the fundamentals of our business, including increases in past due accounts, tenant defaults, lower occupancy and reduced effective rents. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has significantly slowed global economic activity, caused significant volatility in financial markets, and resulted in unprecedented job losses. In addition, the government responses to control the pandemic are creating disruption in the global economy and supply chains and adversely impacting many industries, including owners and developers of office and mixed-use buildings. These adverse conditions have impacted our net income and cash flows and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. We believe that the quality of our assets and the strength of our balance sheet will enable us to raise debt capital, if necessary, in various forms and from
30
different sources, including through secured or unsecured loans from banks, pension funds and life insurance companies. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to borrow funds on terms that are economically attractive or at all.
We continue to seek revenue growth throughout our portfolio by increasing occupancy and rental rates. Occupancy at our Core Properties at June 30, 2021 was 90.5% compared to 90.7% at June 30, 2020.
The table below summarizes selected operating and leasing statistics of our wholly owned properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

(1)Does not include properties under development, redevelopment, held for sale, or sold.
(2)Includes leasing related to completed developments and redevelopments, as well as sold properties.
(3)Calculated as percentage of total square feet.
(4)Includes base rent plus reimbursement for operating expenses and real estate taxes.
(5)Calculated on a weighted average basis.
In seeking to increase revenue through our operating, financing and investment activities, we also seek to minimize operating risks, including (i) tenant rollover risk, (ii) tenant credit risk and (iii) development risk.
Tenant Rollover Risk
We are subject to the risk that tenant leases, upon expiration, will not be renewed, that space may not be relet, or that the terms of renewal or reletting (including the cost of renovations) may be less favorable to us than the current lease terms. Leases that accounted for approximately 2.1% of our aggregate final annualized base rents as of June 30, 2021 (representing approximately 2.5% of the net rentable square feet of the properties) are scheduled to expire without penalty in the remainder of 2021. We maintain an active dialogue with our tenants in an effort to maximize lease renewals. If we are unable to renew leases or relet space under expiring leases, at anticipated rental rates, or if tenants terminate their leases early, our cash flow would be adversely impacted.
Tenant Credit Risk
In the event of a tenant default, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as a landlord and may incur substantial costs in protecting our investment. Our management evaluates our accounts receivable reserve policy in light of our tenant base and general and local economic conditions. Our accounts receivable allowance was $5.0 million or 2.8 % of total receivables (including accrued rent receivable) as of June 30, 2021 compared to $5.1 million or 2.9% of total receivables (including accrued rent receivable) as of December 31, 2020.
31
If economic conditions deteriorate, including as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we may experience increases in past due accounts, defaults, lower occupancy and reduced effective rents. This condition would negatively affect our future net income and cash flows and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.
Development Risk
Development projects are subject to a variety of risks, including construction delays, construction cost overruns, building moratoriums, inability to obtain financing on favorable terms, inability to lease space at projected rates, inability to enter into construction, development and other agreements on favorable terms, and unexpected environmental and other hazards.
As of June 30, 2021 the following active development and redevelopment projects remain under construction in progress and we were proceeding on the following activity (dollars, in thousands):
| Property/Portfolio Name | Location | Expected Completion | Activity Type | Approximate Square Footage | Estimated Costs | Amount Funded | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 405 Colorado Street (a) | Austin, TX | Q2 2021 | Development | 205,803 | $ | 122,000 | $ | 79,411 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 250 King of Prussia Road (c) | Radnor, PA | Q2 2022 | Redevelopment | 168,294 | $ | 80,573 | $ | 22,457 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(a)Estimated costs include $2.1 million of existing property basis through a ground lease. Project includes 520 parking spaces.
(b)Estimated costs include $12.8 million of existing property basis.
(c)Total project costs includes $20.6 million of existing property basis.
In addition to the properties listed above, we have classified one office building in Herndon, Virginia and one parking facility in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as redevelopment, but we have yet to incur significant development costs on these projects.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discuss our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Certain accounting policies are considered to be critical accounting policies, as they require management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made and changes in accounting estimate are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and current economic conditions.
Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 contains a discussion of our critical accounting policies. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies since December 31, 2020.
32
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion is based on our consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. We believe that presentation of our consolidated financial information, without a breakdown by segment, will effectively present important information useful to our investors.
Net operating income (“NOI”) as presented in the comparative analysis below is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as total revenue less property operating expenses, real estate taxes and third party management expenses. Property operating expenses that are included in determining NOI consist of costs that are necessary and allocable to our operating properties such as utilities, property-level salaries, repairs and maintenance, property insurance, and management fees. General and administrative expenses that are not reflected in NOI primarily consist of corporate-level salaries, amortization of share awards and professional fees that are incurred as part of corporate office management. NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that we use internally to evaluate the operating performance of our real estate assets by segment, as presented in Note 14, ''Segment Information," to our consolidated financial statements, and of our business as a whole. We believe NOI provides useful information to investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level. While NOI is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance of real estate investment trusts, it does not represent cash flow from operations or net income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to those measures in evaluating our liquidity or operating performance. NOI does not reflect interest expenses, real estate impairment losses, depreciation and amortization costs, capital expenditures and leasing costs. We believe that net income, as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure. See Note 14, ''Segment Information” to our Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation of NOI to our consolidated net income as defined by GAAP.
Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020
The following comparison for the three months ended June 30, 2021 to the three months ended June 30, 2020, makes reference to the effect of the following:
(a)“Same Store Property Portfolio,” which represents 73 properties containing an aggregate of approximately 12.5 million net rentable square feet, and represents properties that we owned and consolidated for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The Same Store Property Portfolio includes properties acquired or placed in service on or prior to April 1, 2020 and owned and consolidated through June 30, 2021, excluding properties classified as held for sale,
(b)“Total Portfolio,” which represents all properties owned and consolidated by us during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020,
(c)"Recently Completed/Acquired Properties," which represents three properties placed into service or acquired on or subsequent to April 1, 2020,
(d)"Development/Redevelopment Properties," which represents five properties currently in development/redevelopment. A property is excluded from our Same Store Property Portfolio and moved into Development/Redevelopment in the period that we determine to proceed with development/redevelopment for a future development strategy, and
(e)"Q2 2020 through Q2 2021 Dispositions," which represents 14 properties disposed of from April 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021.

(b)Pertains to Core Properties.
Total Revenue
Rents from the Total Portfolio decreased primarily as a result of the following:
•$22.7 million decrease related to the Q2 2020 through Q2 2021 Dispositions;
•$2.5 million decrease related to a property that has been vacated and placed into redevelopment in our Metropolitan Washington D.C. segment;
•$1.3 million decrease related to a property that has been vacated and taken out of service for future demolition in our Austin, Texas segment;
•$2.7 million increase related to the Recently Completed/Acquired Properties; and,
•$2.3 million increase across our Same Store Property Portfolio primarily due to increased occupancy at certain properties as well as an increased use of our properties by the tenants related to the lifting of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
Third party management fees, labor reimbursement, and leasing income increased primarily due to $1.0 million of fees earned from the Mid-Atlantic Office Venture formed in the fourth quarter of 2020, $0.9 million of fees earned from the Commerce Square Venture formed in the third quarter of 2020, and a $0.6 million increase in fees earned from our MAP Venture primarily related to increases in leasing commissions and construction management fees.
34
Other income increased primarily due to excess insurance proceeds of $0.7 million related to a property in our Austin, Texas segment, $0.4 million in proceeds related to a legal settlement during the second quarter of 2021, as well as an increase of $0.3 million in income from the restaurant component of FMC Tower as a result of the lifting of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
Property Operating Expenses
Property operating expenses across our Total Portfolio decreased primarily as a result of the following:
•$7.0 million decrease related to the Q2 2020 through Q2 2021 Dispositions;
•$0.7 million increase across our Same Store Property Portfolio primarily due to increased use of our properties by the tenants as a result of the lifting of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions; and,
•$0.6 million increase at the hotel and restaurant components of FMC Tower primarily as a result of the lifting of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
The remaining offsetting increase of $1.7 million is related to miscellaneous increases in property operating expenses across our Total Portfolio, primarily driven by increases in property-related employee compensation expenses, marketing expenses, and repairs and maintenance.
Real Estate Taxes
The decrease in Real estate taxes is primarily driven by a $2.7 million decrease related to the Q2 2020 through Q2 2021 Dispositions. The offsetting $0.5 million increase is primarily the result of miscellaneous increases in tax assessments across our Total Portfolio.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased primarily as a result of the following:
•$8.4 million decrease related to the Q2 2020 through Q2 2021 Dispositions;
•$1.7 million decrease primarily related to two properties placed into redevelopment; and,
•$3.3 million increase due to the reassessment of the estimated useful life of seven properties in our Austin, Texas segment pursuant to future demolition plans as part of our Broadmoor master development plan beginning in the second quarter of 2021.
Interest and Investment Income
Interest and investment income increased primarily due to $1.2 million of preferred return earned during the second quarter of 2021 from our Austin Preferred Equity Investment, which closed on December 31, 2020.
Interest Expense
The decrease in interest expense is primarily driven by the following:
•$2.2 million decrease due to deconsolidation of One Commerce Square and Two Commerce Square and the associated mortgage loans on July 21, 2020;
•$1.2 million decrease due to an increase in capitalized interest on our various development projects as well as capitalized interest on our investment in 3025 JFK Venture; and,
•$0.8 million decrease due to the purchase of the Two Logan Square mortgage in the third quarter of 2020.
The remaining decrease is primarily related to lower interest rates during the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020.
Equity in loss of unconsolidated real estate ventures
Equity in loss of unconsolidated real estate ventures increased primarily due to the following:
•$4.7 million in net losses associated with our Commerce Square Venture formed on July 21, 2020; and
•$0.3 million increase related to our MAP Venture due to lower revenues driven by lower occupancy during the second quarter of 2021 than 2020.

(a)Represents certain revenues and expenses at the corporate level as well as various intercompany costs that are eliminated in consolidation, third-party management fees, provisions for impairment, and changes in the accrued rent receivable allowance. Other/ (Eliminations) also includes properties sold and properties classified as held for sale.
(b)Pertains to Core Properties.
Total Revenue
Rents from the Total Portfolio decreased primarily as a result of the following:
•$46.9 million decrease related to the YTD 2020 and 2021 Dispositions;
•$4.9 million decrease related to a property that has been vacated and placed into redevelopment in our Metropolitan Washington D.C. segment;
36
•$1.3 million decrease related to a property that has been vacated and taken out of service for future demolition in our Austin, Texas segment;
•$0.5 million decrease related to reduced parking income;
•$5.3 million increase related to the Recently Completed/Acquired Properties; and,
•$1.8 million increase across our Same Store Property Portfolio due to increased occupancy at certain properties as well as an increased use of our properties by the tenants related to the lifting of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
Third party management fees, labor reimbursement, and leasing income increased primarily due to $2.0 million of fees earned from the Mid-Atlantic Office Venture formed in the fourth quarter of 2020, $1.6 million of fees earned from the Commerce Square Venture formed in the third quarter of 2020, and a $1.0 million increase in fees earned from our MAP Venture primarily related to increases in leasing commissions and construction management fees.
Other income increased primarily due to $0.7 million in excess insurance proceeds related to a property in our Austin, Texas segment as well as $0.4 million in proceeds related to a legal settlement during the second quarter of 2021.
Property Operating Expenses
Property operating expenses across our Total Portfolio decreased primarily as a result of the following:
•$14.4 million decrease related to the YTD 2020 and 2021 Dispositions;
•$1.6 million decrease related to the Development/Redevelopment properties primarily related to a property in our Metropolitan Washington D.C. segment segment that was taken out of service for redevelopment; and,
•$0.9 million increase related to the Recently Completed/Acquired Properties.
The remaining offsetting increase of $2.5 million is related to miscellaneous increases in property operating expenses across our Total Portfolio, primarily driven by increases in property-related employee compensation expenses, marketing expenses, and repairs and maintenance.
Real Estate Taxes
The decrease in real estate taxes is primarily driven by a $5.4 million decrease related to the YTD 2020 and 2021 Dispositions. The offsetting $1.2 million increase is primarily the result of acquisition of 250 King of Prussia Road in our Pennsylvania Suburbs Segment and miscellaneous increases in tax assessments across our Total Portfolio.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased primarily as a result of the following:
•$17.4 million decrease due to the YTD 2020 and 2021 Dispositions;
•$2.5 million decrease at various properties in our Same Store Property Portfolio, largely due to the completion of amortization of acquired in-place lease intangibles;
•$2.0 million decrease related to our Development/Redevelopment Properties primarily due to a property placed into redevelopment in our Philadelphia CBD segment; and,
•$3.3 million increase due to the reassessment of the estimated useful life of seven properties in our Austin, Texas segment pursuant to future demolition plans as part of our Broadmoor master development plan beginning in the second quarter of 2021.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses decreased primarily as a result of a $2.4 million recovery of previously expensed legal fees incurred in pursuit of a settlement that was received in the first quarter of 2021. The offsetting $0.4 million is primarily related to increased employee medical benefit costs.
Net Gain on disposition of Real Estate
The gain of $2.6 million recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020 is primarily related to the disposition of 52 East Swedesford Road, an office property in our Pennsylvania Suburbs segment.
Net Gain on Sale of Undepreciated Real Estate
The gain of $2.0 million recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2021 is due to the formation of the 3025 JFK Venture, which resulted in deconsolidation of the project and recognition of our investment in the real estate venture at fair value.
37
The gain of $0.2 million recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020 resulted from the sale of Keith Valley, a land parcel in our Pennsylvania Suburbs Segment.
Interest and Investment Income
Interest and investment income increased primarily due to $2.5 million of preferred return earned during the six months ended June 30, 2021 from our Austin Preferred Equity Investment, which closed on December 31, 2020.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased primarily due to the following:
•$4.4 million decrease due to deconsolidation of One Commerce Square and Two Commerce Square and the associated mortgage loans on July 21, 2020;
•$1.6 million decrease due to the purchase of the Two Logan Square mortgage in the fourth quarter of 2020; and,
•$1.4 million decrease due to an increase in capitalized interest on our various development projects as well as capitalized interest on our investment in 3025 JFK Venture.
The remaining decrease is primarily related to lower interest rates during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Equity in Loss of unconsolidated real estate ventures
Equity in loss of unconsolidated real estate ventures increased primarily due to the following:
•$9.0 million in net losses associated with our Commerce Square Venture formed on July 21, 2020; and,
•$1.2 million increase related to our MAP Venture due to lower revenues driven by lower occupancy during the six months ended June 30, 2021 than the six months ended June 30, 2020.
These increases were partially offset by $0.3 million in net income associated with our Mid-Atlantic Office Venture formed on December 21, 2020.
38
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
General
Our principal liquidity funding needs for the next twelve months are as follows:
•normal recurring expenses;
•capital expenditures, including capital and tenant improvements and leasing costs;
•debt service and principal repayment obligations;
•current development and redevelopment costs;
•commitments to unconsolidated real estate ventures;
•distributions to shareholders to maintain our REIT status;
•possible acquisitions of properties, either directly or indirectly through the acquisition of equity interest therein; and
•possible common share repurchases.
We expect to satisfy these needs using one or more of the following:
•cash flows from operations;
•distributions of cash from our unconsolidated real estate ventures;
•cash and cash equivalent balances;
•availability under our unsecured Credit Facility;
•secured construction loans and long-term unsecured indebtedness;
•sales of real estate or contributions of interests in real estate to joint ventures; and
•issuances of Parent Company equity securities and/or units of the Operating Partnership.
As of June 30, 2021, the Parent Company owned a 99.5% interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining interest of approximately 0.5% pertains to common limited partnership interests owned by non-affiliated investors who contributed property to the Operating Partnership in exchange for their interests. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company has full and complete responsibility for the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day operations and management. The Parent Company’s source of funding for its dividend payments and other obligations is the distributions it receives from the Operating Partnership.
As summarized above, we believe that our liquidity needs will be satisfied through available cash balances and cash flows from operations, financing activities and real estate sales. Rental revenue and other income from operations are our principal sources of cash to pay operating expenses, debt service, recurring capital expenditures and the minimum distributions required to maintain our REIT qualification. We seek to increase cash flows from our properties by maintaining quality standards for our properties that promote high occupancy rates and permit increases in rental rates while reducing tenant turnover and controlling operating expenses. Our revenue also includes third-party fees generated by our property management, leasing, development and construction businesses. We believe that our revenue, together with proceeds from property sales and debt financings, will continue to provide funds for our short-term liquidity needs. However, material changes in our operating or financing activities may adversely affect our net cash flows. With uncertain economic conditions, vacancy rates may increase, effective rental rates on new and renewed leases may decrease and tenant installation costs, including concessions, may increase in most or all of our markets during 2021 and possibly beyond. As a result, our revenues and cash flows could be insufficient to cover operating expenses, including increased tenant installation costs, pay debt service or make distributions to shareholders over the short-term. If this situation were to occur, we expect that we would finance cash deficits through borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility and other sources of debt and equity financings. In addition, a material adverse change in cash provided by operations could adversely affect our compliance with financial performance covenants under our unsecured revolving credit facility, including unsecured term loans and unsecured notes. As of June 30, 2021 we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants and requirement obligations.
In addition, we are continuing to monitor the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the related economic impacts, market volatility, and business disruption, and its impact on our tenants. The severity and duration of the pandemic and its impact on our operations and liquidity is uncertain and continues to evolve globally. However, if the pandemic continues, there will likely be continued negative economic impacts, market volatility, and business disruption which could negatively impact our tenants’ ability to pay rent, our ability to lease vacant space, and our ability to complete development and redevelopment projects, and these consequences, in turn, could materially impact our results of operations. We collected 99.3% of total cash-based rent due from tenants during the second quarter of 2021, which reflects a 99.8% collection rate from our office tenants.
We have granted rent relief requests primarily to our co-working and retail tenants. The relief requests have substantially all been in the form of rent deferral for varying lengths of time, but were/are primarily being repaid in 2020 and 2021. For those tenants we believe require rent relief, we have granted deferrals and, in some instances, rent abatements while receiving extended lease terms through favorable lease extensions. To date, we have provided $4.9 million of rent relief to 66 tenants approximating 0.9 million square feet. The deferrals represent approximately 1.1% of annualized revenue. We continue to
39
assess the merits of rent deferral requests and can give no assurances on the outcomes of these ongoing negotiations, the amount and nature of the rent relief packages and ultimate recovery of the amounts deferred.
We use multiple financing sources to fund our long-term capital needs. When needed, we use borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility for general business purposes, including to meet debt maturities and to fund distributions to shareholders as well as development and acquisition costs and other expenses. In light of the volatility in financial markets and economic uncertainties, it is possible, that one or more lenders under our unsecured revolving credit facility could fail to fund a borrowing request. Such an event could adversely affect our ability to access funds under our unsecured credit facility when needed to fund distributions or pay expenses.
Our ability to incur additional debt is dependent upon a number of factors, including our credit ratings, the value of our unencumbered assets, our degree of leverage and borrowing restrictions imposed by our lenders. If one or more rating agencies were to downgrade our unsecured credit rating, our access to the unsecured debt market would be more limited and the interest rate under our unsecured credit facility and unsecured term loan would increase.
The Parent Company unconditionally guarantees the Operating Partnership’s unsecured obligations, which, as of June 30, 2021, amounted to $1,886.6 million. We did not have any secured debt obligations as of June 30, 2021.
Capital Markets
The Parent Company issues equity from time to time, the proceeds of which it contributes to the Operating Partnership in exchange for additional interests in the Operating Partnership, and guarantees debt obligations of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company’s ability to sell common shares and preferred shares is dependent on, among other things, general market conditions for REITs, market perceptions about the Company as a whole and the current trading price of the Parent Company’s shares. The Parent Company maintains a shelf registration statement that covers the offering and sale of common shares, preferred shares, depositary shares, warrants and unsecured debt securities. Subject to our ongoing compliance with securities laws, and if warranted by market conditions, we may offer and sell equity and debt securities from time to time under the shelf registration statement or in transactions exempt from registration.
See Note 12, ''Beneficiaries' Equity of the Parent Company” to our Consolidated Financial Statements for further information related to our share repurchase program. We expect to fund any additional share repurchases with a combination of available cash balances and availability under our unsecured revolving credit facility. The timing and amounts of any repurchases will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions, regulatory requirements, share prices, capital availability and other factors as determined by our management team. The repurchase program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without notice.
Capital Recycling
The Operating Partnership also considers net sales of selected properties and recapitalization of unconsolidated real estate ventures as additional sources of managing its liquidity. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we did not have any property dispositions with the exception of our contribution of an investment in a 99-year prepaid leasehold interest in a one-acre land parcel held for development to 3025 JFK Venture. In addition, we closed on the sale of the two parcels of land on July 6, 2021 for net cash proceeds of of $8.3 million.
As of June 30, 2021, we had $47.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and $540.7 million of available borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility, net of $1.3 million in letters of credit outstanding. Based on the foregoing, as well as cash flows from operations net of dividend requirements, we believe we have sufficient capital to fund our remaining capital requirements on existing development and redevelopment projects and pursue additional attractive investment opportunities. We expect that our primary uses of capital during the remainder of 2021 will be to fund our current development and redevelopment projects.
Cash Flows
The following discussion of our cash flows is based on the consolidated statement of cash flows and is not meant to be a comprehensive discussion of the changes in our cash flows for the periods presented.
As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we maintained cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $48.5 million and $47.1 million, respectively. We report and analyze our cash flows based on operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. The following table summarizes changes in our cash flows (in thousands):

Our principal source of cash flows is from the operation of our Properties. Our Properties provide a relatively consistent stream of cash flows that provides us with the resources to fund operating expenses, debt service and quarterly dividends. Cash is used in investing activities to fund acquisitions, development, or redevelopment projects and recurring and nonrecurring capital expenditures. We selectively invest in new projects that enable us to take advantage of our development, leasing, financing, and property management skills and invest in existing buildings that meet our investment criteria. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020, the change in investing cash flows was due to the following activities (in thousands):
| (Decrease) Increase | ||||||||
| Acquisitions of real estate | $ | 11,432 | ||||||

We generally fund our investment activity through the sale of real estate, property-level financing, credit facilities, senior unsecured notes, and construction loans. From time to time, we may issue common or preferred shares of beneficial interest, or the Operating Partnership may issue common or preferred units of limited partnership interest. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020, the change in financing cash flows was due to the following activities (in thousands):

The indenture under which the Operating Partnership issued its unsecured notes contains financial covenants, including: (i) a leverage ratio not to exceed 60%; (ii) a secured debt leverage ratio not to exceed 40%; (iii) a debt service coverage ratio of greater than 1.5 to 1.0; and (iv) an unencumbered asset value of not less than 150% of unsecured debt. The Operating Partnership is in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2021.
Equity
In order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, the Parent Company is required to, among other things, pay dividends to its shareholders of at least 90% of its REIT taxable income. See Note 12, ''Beneficiaries' Equity of the Parent Company,” to our Consolidated Financial Statements for further information related to our dividends declared for the second quarter of 2021.

Contractual Obligations
Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for a discussion of our contractual obligations.
There have been no material changes, outside the ordinary course of business, to these contractual obligations during the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Funds from Operations (FFO)
Pursuant to the revised definition of FFO adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), we calculate FFO by adjusting net income/(loss) attributable to common unit holders (computed in accordance with GAAP) for gains (or losses) from sales of properties, impairment losses on depreciable consolidated real estate, impairment losses on investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures driven by a measurable decrease in the fair value of depreciable real estate held by the unconsolidated real estate ventures, real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after similar adjustments for unconsolidated real estate ventures. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that the use of FFO combined with the required GAAP presentations, has been beneficial in improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REITs’ operating results more meaningful. We consider FFO to be a useful measure for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding gains or losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and real estate depreciation and amortization, FFO can help the investing public compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to other companies. Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently.
We consider net income, as defined by GAAP, to be the most comparable earnings measure to FFO. While FFO and FFO per unit are relevant and widely used measures of operating performance of REITs, FFO does not represent cash flow from operations or net income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to those measures in evaluating our liquidity or operating performance. We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be compared with our reported net income/ (loss) attributable to common unit holders and considered in addition to cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements.
The following table presents a reconciliation of net income attributable to common unit holders to FFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, commodity prices and equity prices. In pursuing our business plan, the primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk. Changes in the general level of interest rates prevailing in the financial markets may affect the spread between our yield on invested assets and cost of funds and, in turn, our ability to make distributions or payments to our shareholders. While we have not experienced any significant credit losses, in the event of a significant rising interest rate environment and/or continued economic slowdown, defaults could increase and result in losses to us which would adversely affect our operating results and liquidity.
Interest Rate Risk and Sensitivity Analysis
The analysis below presents the sensitivity of the market value of the Operating Partnership’s financial instruments to selected changes in market rates. The range of changes chosen reflects its view of changes which are reasonably possible over a one-year period. Market values are the present value of projected future cash flows based on the market rates chosen.
Our financial instruments consist of both fixed and variable rate debt. As of June 30, 2021, our consolidated debt consisted of unsecured notes with an outstanding principal balance of $1,500.0 million, all of which are fixed rate borrowings. We also have variable rate debt consisting of trust preferred securities with an outstanding principal balance of $78.6 million, a $600.0 million Credit Facility with an outstanding principal balance of $58.0 million and an unsecured term loan with an outstanding principal balance of $250.0 million. The unsecured term loan has been swapped to a fixed rate. All financial instruments were entered into for other than trading purposes and the net market value of these financial instruments is referred to as the net financial position. Changes in interest rates have different impacts on the fixed and variable rate portions of our debt portfolio. A change in interest rates on the fixed portion of the debt portfolio impacts the net financial instrument position, but has no impact on interest incurred or cash flows. A change in interest rates on the variable portion of the debt portfolio impacts the interest incurred and cash flows, but does not impact the net financial instrument position.
As of June 30, 2021, based on prevailing interest rates and credit spreads, the fair value of our unsecured notes was $1,635.4 million. For sensitivity purposes, a 100-basis point change in the discount rate equates to a change in the total fair value of our debt of approximately $16.4 million at June 30, 2021.
From time to time or as the need arises, we use derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk exposures and not for speculative or trading purposes. The total outstanding principal balance of our variable rate debt was approximately $386.6 million and $328.6 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The total fair value of our variable rate debt was approximately $367.2 million and $308.8 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. For sensitivity purposes, if market rates of interest increase by 100 basis points the fair value of our variable rate debt would decrease by approximately $10.8 million at June 30, 2021. If market rates of interest decrease by 100 basis points the fair value of our outstanding variable rate debt would increase by approximately $11.8 million.
These amounts were determined solely by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our financial instruments. Due to the uncertainty of specific actions we may undertake to minimize possible effects of market interest rate increases, this analysis assumes no changes in our financial structure.
