Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of “safe harbor” provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (as set forth in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Exchange Act). Forward-looking statements include statements that are predictive in nature, depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, include statements regarding the potential future impact of the novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, our operations, business, financial condition, expected financial results, performance, prospects, opportunities, priorities, targets, goals, ongoing objectives, strategies and outlook, as well as the outlook for North American and international economies for the current fiscal year and subsequent periods, and include words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “seeks,” “intends,” “targets,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “likely,” or negative versions thereof and other similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” and “could.”

Although Brookfield DTLA Fund Office Trust Investor Inc. (“Brookfield DTLA” or “we”) believes that its anticipated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements and information are based upon reasonable assumptions and expectations, the reader should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements and information because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond its control, which may cause Brookfield DTLA’s actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from anticipated future results, performance or achievement expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements and information.

In particular, in the near term, we expect to be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has interrupted business activities and supply chains; disrupted travel; and adversely impacted local, regional, national and international economic conditions, as well as the labor markets.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated or implied by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

Risks incidental to the ownership and operation of real estate properties, including local real estate conditions;

The impact or unanticipated impact of general economic, political and market factors in the regions in which Brookfield DTLA or any of its subsidiaries does business, including as a result of the capacity limits imposed by both local and state governments on higher-risk activities and businesses, such as dine-in restaurants, bars, gyms and conference or convention centers, to combat the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic;

The ability to enter into new leases or renew leases on favorable terms;

Business competition;

Dependence on tenants’ financial condition;

The use of debt to finance Brookfield DTLA’s business or that of its subsidiaries;

The behavior of financial markets, including fluctuations in interest rates;

Uncertainties of real estate development or redevelopment;



Table of Contents
Global equity and capital markets and the availability of equity and debt financing and refinancing within these markets;

Risks relating to Brookfield DTLA’s insurance coverage;

The possible impact of international conflicts and other developments, including terrorist acts;

Potential environmental liabilities;

Changes in tax laws and other tax-related risks;

Dependence on management personnel;

Illiquidity of investments in real estate;

Operational and reputational risks;

Catastrophic events, such as earthquakes or pandemics/epidemics;

Other factors that are described in Part I, “Item IA. Risk Factors” in Brookfield DTLA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 25, 2021, and Part II, “Item IA. Risk Factors” in this Report; and

Other risks and factors detailed from time to time in reports filed by Brookfield DTLA with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

Brookfield DTLA cautions that the foregoing list of important factors that may affect future results is not exhaustive. When relying on Brookfield DTLA’s forward-looking statements or information, investors and others should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties and potential events. Except as required by law, Brookfield DTLA undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or information, whether written or oral, that may be as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

As used in these notes to consolidated financial statements, tabular amounts are presented in thousands, except share amounts, percentage data and dates.

Note 1—Organization and Description of Business

Brookfield DTLA Fund Office Trust Investor Inc. (“Brookfield DTLA” or the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation and was incorporated on April 19, 2013. Brookfield DTLA was formed for the purpose of consummating the transactions contemplated in the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of April 24, 2013, as amended, and the issuance of shares of 7.625% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series A preferred stock”) in connection with the acquisition of MPG Office Trust, Inc. and MPG Office, L.P. (together, “MPG”). Brookfield DTLA is a direct subsidiary of Brookfield DTLA Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“DTLA Holdings”, and together with its affiliates excluding the Company and its subsidiaries, the “Manager”). DTLA Holdings is an indirect partially‑owned subsidiary of Brookfield Property Partners L.P. (“BPY”), an exempted limited partnership under the Laws of Bermuda, which in turn is the flagship commercial property entity and the primary vehicle through which Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (“BAM”), a corporation under the Laws of Canada, invests in real estate on a global basis. On April 1, 2021, BAM and BPY announced an agreement for BAM to acquire 100% of the limited partnership units of BPY. The acquisition was completed in July 2021. We do not expect the acquisition to have any impact to the Company.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, Brookfield DTLA owned Bank of America Plaza (“BOA Plaza”), EY Plaza, Wells Fargo Center–North Tower, Wells Fargo Center–South Tower, Gas Company Tower and 777 Tower, which are Class A office properties, and FIGat7th, a retail center nestled between EY Plaza and 777 Tower. Additionally, Brookfield DTLA Fund Properties II LLC (“Fund II”) has a noncontrolling interest in an unconsolidated real estate joint venture with Brookfield DTLA FP IV Holdings LLC (“DTLA FP IV Holdings”), a wholly‑owned subsidiary of DTLA Holdings, which owns 755 South Figueroa, a residential development property. All of these properties are located in the Los Angeles Central Business District (the “LACBD”).

Brookfield DTLA primarily receives its income from lease income, including tenant reimbursements, generated from the operations of its office and retail properties, and to a lesser extent, revenue from its parking garages.

Note 2—Basis of Presentation

As used in these consolidated financial statements and related notes, unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “Brookfield DTLA,” the “Company,” “us,” “we” and “our” refer to Brookfield DTLA Fund Office Trust Investor Inc. together with its direct and indirect subsidiaries.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10‑Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only those of a normal and recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and interim results of Brookfield DTLA as of and for the periods presented have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full fiscal year.

The consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 include the accounts of Brookfield DTLA and subsidiaries in which it has a controlling financial interest. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

The accompanying notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The unaudited consolidated financial information included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Brookfield DTLA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 25, 2021.

Determination of Controlling Financial Interest

We consolidate entities in which Brookfield DTLA is considered to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) or has a majority of the voting interest in the entity. We are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We do not consolidate entities in which the other parties have substantive kick-out rights to remove the Company’s power to direct the activities, and most significantly impacting the economic performance, of the VIE. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary, we consider factors such as ownership interest, management representation, authority to control decisions, and contractual and substantive participating rights of each party.

BROOKFIELD DTLA FUND OFFICE TRUST INVESTOR INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(Unaudited)
Brookfield DTLA Fund Properties II LLC. The Company earns a return through an indirect investment in Fund II. DTLA Holdings, the parent of Brookfield DTLA, owns all of the common interest in Fund II. Brookfield DTLA has an indirect preferred stock interest in Fund II and its wholly-owned subsidiary is the managing member of Fund II. The Company determined that Fund II is a VIE. As a result of having the power to direct the significant activities of Fund II that impact Fund II’s economic performance, and the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, Fund II that could potentially be significant to the Fund II, Brookfield DTLA meets the two conditions for being the primary beneficiary of Fund II.

We consolidate entities through which we conduct substantially all of our business, and own, directly and through subsidiaries, substantially all of our assets. As of June 30, 2021, these consolidated VIEs had in aggregate total consolidated assets of $2.7 billion (of which $2.4 billion is related to investments in real estate) and total consolidated liabilities of $2.3 billion (of which $2.3 billion is related to non-recourse debt secured by our office and retail properties). The Company is obligated to repay substantially all of the liabilities of our consolidated VIEs, except for the non-recourse secured debt.

Investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Joint Venture. Fund II has a noncontrolling interest in a joint venture, Brookfield DTLA Fund Properties IV LLC (“Fund IV”), with DTLA FP IV Holdings. The Company determined that the joint venture is a VIE mainly because its equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance the joint venture’s activities without additional subordinated financial support. While the joint venture meets the definition of a VIE, Brookfield DTLA is not its primary beneficiary as the Company lacks the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities that most significantly impact the joint venture’s economic performance. Therefore, the Company accounts for its ownership interest in the joint venture under the equity method. As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s ownership interest in the joint venture was 41.7%, a decrease from 47.8% as of December 31, 2020 as a result of additional capital contributed by DTLA FP IV Holdings to the joint venture during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

The liabilities of the joint venture may only be settled using the assets of 755 South Figueroa and are not recourse to the Company. Brookfield DTLA’s exposure to its investment in the joint venture is limited to its investment balance and the Company has no obligation to make future contributions to the joint venture. Pursuant to the operating agreement of the joint venture, DTLA FP IV Holdings may be required to fund additional amounts for the development of 755 South Figueroa, routine operating costs, and guaranties or commitments of the joint venture.

Impact of COVID-19

Prior to the end of the first quarter of 2020, there was a global outbreak of a new strain of Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) which prompted government and businesses to take unprecedented measures in response. Many states, including California where our properties are located, have implemented “stay-at-home” restrictions to help combat the spread of COVID-19. The State of California order includes the shutdown of all nonessential services, such as dine-in restaurants, bars, gyms and conference or convention centers, and other businesses not deemed to support critical infrastructure (the “Shutdown”). Essential services, such as grocery stores, pharmacies, gas stations, food banks, convenience stores and delivery restaurants, were allowed to remain open. Consequently, business activities and supply chains were interrupted; travel was disrupted; and local, regional, national and international economic conditions were adversely impacted.

The U.S. began a large-scale COVID-19 vaccination campaign in December 2020. In the second quarter of 2021, Los Angeles County officially moved into the less restrictive Orange Tier and the least restrictive Yellow Tier of the California state’s reopening framework, which eases more rules for businesses amid the ongoing pandemic. On June 15, 2021, with California fully reopened its economy, restrictions such as physical distancing, capacity limits and the county tier system were lifted. However, the spread of the delta variant brings uncertainty to the economic recovery. In July 2021, amid a rise in coronavirus cases and hospitalizations, Los Angeles County reinstated its mask mandate that requires masking indoors regardless of vaccination status.

During the first half of 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken to combat the spread of the pandemic has continued to impact numerous aspects of our business and our properties, which are located in the City of Los Angeles. Some of the effects include the following:

Capacity limits were imposed on higher-risk activities and businesses such as indoor dining, bars, fitness centers and movie theaters according to the tier system of the California state’s reopening framework. As a result, our tenants in FIGat7th, which include retail shops, restaurants and a big box gym, experienced the most immediate impact of the restrictions imposed. Due to the uncertainties posed to our tenants in FIGat7th by these restrictions, during the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized adjustments of $0.5 million, compared to $1.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, to lower our lease income related to certain leases where we determined that the collection of future lease payments was not probable. No material adjustments were made to our retail lease income during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

While our office properties have remained open, most of our office tenants have been working remotely since the “stay-at-home” order was issued. Although state and local authorities began easing restrictions on businesses throughout the first half of 2021, the physical occupancy of our office properties has remained well below capacity as infection rates fluctuated and most employers continued their COVID-19 response protocols and allowed employees to work from home when possible. As of June 30, 2021, most of our office tenants have been current in paying amounts due to us under their leases. Due to the uncertainties posed to our office property tenants by the COVID-19 pandemic, during the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized adjustments of $0.1 million, compared to $1.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, to lower our lease income related to certain leases where we determined that the collection of future lease payments was not probable. No material adjustments were made to our office lease income during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Decline in property values resulting from lower than anticipated revenues due to reduced increases in forecasted rental rates on new or renewal leases, applied credit losses, lower leasing velocity and reductions in projected leasing of available space. While the carrying values of the properties are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation, we estimate the undiscounted cashflows and fair values of the properties as part of our impairment review of investments in real estate. See Note 2—“Basis of Presentation—Impairment Review” for further discussion.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it considers to be reasonable under the circumstances, including the impact of events such as the Shutdown. For example, estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to the useful lives of assets, recoverable amounts of receivables, impairment of long-lived assets and the fair value of debt. Actual results could ultimately differ from such estimates.

Impairment Review

Investments in long-lived assets, including our investments in real estate, are reviewed for impairment quarterly or if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the long-lived assets might not be recoverable, which is referred to as a “triggering event” or an “impairment indicator.” The carrying amount of long-lived assets to be held and used is deemed not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. Triggering events or impairment indicators for long-lived assets to be held and used are assessed by property and include significant fluctuations in estimated net operating income, changes in occupancy, significant near-term lease expirations, current and historical operating and/or cash flow losses, rental rates, and other market factors. The impact of the measures imposed to combat the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic on economic and market conditions, together with many of our office property tenants working from home, was deemed to be a triggering event during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

When conducting the impairment review of our investments in real estate, we assessed the expected undiscounted cash flows based upon numerous factors, including the impact of the Shutdown. These factors include, but are not limited to, the credit quality of our tenants, available market information, known trends, current market/economic conditions that may affect the asset, and historical and forecasted financial and operating information relating to the property, such as net operating income, occupancy statistics, vacancy projections, renewal percentage, and rent collection rates. If the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by a property are less than its carrying amount, the Company determines the fair value of the property and an impairment loss would be recorded to write down the carrying amount of such property to its fair value. Based on its review, management concluded that none of Brookfield DTLA’s real estate properties were impaired as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

The Company’s investment in its unconsolidated real estate joint venture is also reviewed for impairment quarterly or if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of our investment might not be recoverable using similar criteria as its investments in real estate. An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the carrying amount of an investment compared to its estimated fair value. Impairment analyses are based on current plans, intended holding periods and information available at the time the analyses are prepared. Based on its review, management concluded that Brookfield DTLA’s investment in its unconsolidated real estate joint venture was not impaired as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Our future results may continue to be impacted by risks associated with the Shutdown and the related global reduction in services, investments, commerce, and travel, which may result in a decrease in our cash flows and a potential increase in impairment losses and/or revaluations of our investments in real estate and unconsolidated real estate joint venture.

Rents, Deferred Rents and Other Receivables

Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases, Brookfield DTLA must assess on an individual lease basis whether it is probable that the Company will collect the future lease payments throughout the term of the lease. The Company considers the tenant’s payment history and current credit status when assessing collectibility. If the collectibility of the lease payments is probable at lease commencement, the Company recognizes lease income over the term of the lease on a straight-line basis. During the term of the lease, Brookfield DTLA monitors the credit quality and any related material changes of our tenants by (i) reviewing financial statements of the tenants that are publicly available or that are required to be delivered to us pursuant to the applicable lease, (ii) monitoring news reports regarding our tenants and their respective businesses, including the impact of the measures taken to combat the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic on the tenant’s business, (iii) monitoring the tenant’s payment history and current credit status, and (iv) analyzing current economic trends. When collectibility is not deemed probable at the lease commencement date, the Company’s lease income is constrained to the lesser of (i) the income that would have been recognized if collection were probable, or (ii) the lease payments that have been collected from the lessee. If the collectibility assessment changes to probable after the lease commencement date, any difference between the lease income that would have been recognized if collectibility had always been assessed as probable and the lease income recognized to date is recognized as a current-period adjustment to lease income. If the collectibility assessment changes to not probable after the lease commencement date, lease income is reversed to the extent that the lease payments that have been collected from the lessee are less than the lease income recognized to date. Changes to the collectibility of operating leases are recorded as adjustments to lease income in the consolidated statements of operations. As the result of our assessment of the collectibility of amounts due under leases with our tenants, the Company recognized a reduction in lease income totaling $576 thousand during the six months ended June 30, 2021, and $2.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. No material collectibility adjustments were made to our lease income during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

The Company received certain rent relief requests for certain periods in 2020 and 2021 from many of our retail tenants and some of our office tenants as a result of the measures taken to combat the spread of the COIVD-19 pandemic. Some of our tenants have availed themselves of various federal and state relief funds, such as the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and the Paycheck Protection Program, which can be utilized to partially meet rental obligations. While our tenants are required to fulfill their commitments to us under their leases, we have implemented and will continue to carefully consider temporary rent deferrals and rent abatements on a lease-by-lease basis and only consider those which have a justifiable financial basis. For leases with deferrals, the Company elected to account for the lease concessions as if they were part of the enforceable rights rather than as a modification. For leases with abatements, the Company accounted for the lease concessions on a lease-by-lease basis in accordance with the existing lease modification accounting framework. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the impact of lease concessions granted did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes

Brookfield DTLA has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) pursuant to Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its tax period ended December 31, 2013. Brookfield DTLA conducts its operations with the intent to continue to qualify as a REIT. Accordingly, Brookfield DTLA is not subject to U.S. federal income tax, provided that it continues to qualify as a REIT and makes distributions to its stockholders, if any, that generally equal or exceed its taxable income.

Brookfield DTLA has elected to treat certain of its subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”). A TRS is permitted to engage in activities that a REIT cannot engage in directly, such as performing non‑customary services for the Company’s tenants, holding assets that the Company cannot hold directly and conducting certain affiliate transactions. A TRS is subject to both federal and state income taxes. The Company’s various TRS incurred income tax expense of $0.6 million and $1.6 million, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The Company’s various TRS did not have significant tax provisions or deferred taxes during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Note 3—Recently Issued Accounting Literature

New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

There have been no new accounting pronouncements adopted during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides accounting relief from the future impact of the cessation of LIBOR by, among other things, providing optional expedients to treat contract modifications resulting from such reference rate reform as a continuation of the existing contract and for hedging relationships to not be de-designated resulting from such changes provided certain criteria are met. The guidance is effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and we may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, which refines the scope of ASC Topic 848, Reference Rate Reform, and clarifies some of its guidance as part of the FASB’s ongoing monitoring of global reference rate reform activities. ASU 2021-01 permits entities to elect certain optional expedients and exceptions when accounting for derivative contracts and certain hedging relationships affected by changes in the interest rates used for discounting cash flows, computing variation margin settlements, and calculating price alignment interest in connection with reference rate reform activities under way in global financial markets. ASU 2021-01 became effective upon issuance and may be applied on a full retrospective basis as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020 or prospectively for contract modifications made on or before December 31, 2022. The Company’s variable debt and interest rate cap contracts currently reference LIBOR. The Company is currently in the process of identifying its LIBOR-based contracts that will be impacted by the cessation of LIBOR, incorporating fallback language in negotiated contracts and incorporating non-LIBOR reference rate and/or fallback language in new contracts to prepare for these changes. Notwithstanding these efforts, the Company expects to utilize the optional expedients provided by ASU 2020-04 for debt contracts left unmodified. In addition, the fair value of interest rate cap contracts was de minimis as of June 30, 2021 and the Company does not use hedge accounting for these contracts. As such, we do not expect the adoption of ASU 2020-04 and 2021-01 to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Gas Company Tower—

On February 5, 2021, Brookfield DTLA refinanced its Gas Company Tower secured loans. The original $450.0 million secured loans were replaced with secured loans of $465.0 million, comprised of a $350.0 million mortgage loan, a $65.0 million mezzanine loan and a $50.0 million mezzanine loan, each of which bears interest at variable rates equal to LIBOR plus 1.89%, 5.00% and 7.75%, respectively. The initial maturity date of these interest-only loans is February 9, 2023. The mortgage loan can be prepaid, in whole or in part, with prepayment fees (as defined in the underlying loan agreement) until February 2022 after which the loan may be repaid without prepayment fees. A voluntary prepayment of the mortgage or mezzanine loans requires a simultaneous pro-rata prepayment of all loans encumbering this property. Brookfield DTLA has three options to extend the loans maturity dates for a period of one year each, as long as the maturity date of the mezzanine loans is extended simultaneously with the mortgage loan, and no Event of Default (as defined in the underlying loan agreements) has occurred. All proceeds from the new secured loans were used to pay off the original $450.0 million encumbrance and to satisfy the new loans’ required reserves. The Company recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $4.6 million, which represented a prepayment premium and debt yield maintenance fee, in interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Non-Recourse Carve Out Guarantees

All of our secured debt is subject to “non-recourse carve out” guarantees that expire upon elimination of the underlying loan obligations. In connection with all of these loans, Brookfield DTLA entered into “non-recourse carve out” guarantees, which provide for these otherwise non-recourse loans to become partially or fully recourse against DTLA Holdings, if certain triggering events (as defined in the loan agreements) occur.

Debt Compliance

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, Brookfield DTLA was in compliance with all material financial covenants contained in the loan agreements.

Certain loan agreements held by Brookfield DTLA contain debt yield and debt service coverage ratios. As of June 30, 2021, Brookfield DTLA was meeting or exceeding these financial ratios, with the exception of the loans secured by Wells Fargo Center—South Tower and Wells Fargo Center—North Tower that did not meet their respective minimum debt yield ratio.

Wells Fargo Center–South Tower —

Pursuant to the terms of the Wells Fargo Center–South Tower mortgage loan agreement, effective September 2020, a cash sweep event commenced as the borrower’s debt yield ratio was under the minimum debt yield ratio. While this does not constitute an Event of Default under the terms of the mortgage loan agreement, any excess operating cash flows are currently swept to a cash account controlled by the loan administrative agent. Funds within this account shall be applied to the borrower's approved operating expenses, capital expenditures and leasing costs; property taxes and insurance; interest and any other amounts due and payable under the loan and interest rate cap contracts; and fees and expenses due to the loan administrative agent.

Wells Fargo Center–North Tower —

As of June 30, 2021, the borrower’s debt yield ratio was under the minimum debt yield ratio. While this does not constitute an Event of Default under the terms of the mortgage loan agreement, following the occurrence of such debt yield event, any excess operating cash flows are to be swept to a cash account controlled by the loan administrative agent. Funds within this account shall be applied to the borrower's approved operating expenses, capital expenditures and leasing costs; property taxes and insurance; interest and any other amounts due and payable under the loan and interest rate cap contracts; reserve accounts; and fees and expenses due to the loan administrative agent. The cash sweep has not started as of June 30, 2021.

London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) Transition

The chief executive of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), which regulates the LIBOR, previously announced that the FCA intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. In response, the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York organized the Alternative Reference Rates Committee which identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its preferred alternative to USD-LIBOR in derivatives and other financial contracts. In November 2020, the Intercontinental Exchange (“ICE”) Benchmark Administration Limited, the benchmark administrator for USD-LIBOR rates, proposed extending the publication of certain commonly-used USD-LIBOR settings until June 30, 2023 and the FCA issued a statement supporting such proposal. In connection with this proposal, certain U.S. banking regulators issued guidance strongly encouraging banks to generally cease entering into new contracts referencing USD-LIBOR as soon as practicable and in any event by December 31, 2021. It is not possible to predict the effect of these changes, including when LIBOR will cease to be available or when there will be sufficient liquidity in the SOFR markets.

We have outstanding variable debt and interest rate cap contracts that are indexed to LIBOR. The Company is currently in the process of identifying its LIBOR-based contracts that will be impacted by the cessation of LIBOR, incorporating fallback language in negotiated contracts and incorporating non-LIBOR reference rate and/or fallback language in new contracts to prepare for these changes.

If LIBOR changes or is replaced, the interest rates on our debt which is indexed to USD-LIBOR will be determined using a different successor rate, which may adversely affect interest expense and may result in interest obligations which are more than the payments that would have been made on such debt if USD-LIBOR was available in its current form.

Series B Preferred Interest. Pursuant to the Limited Liability Company Agreement (“LLCA”) of Fund II and the subsequent amendment to the LLCA, DTLA Holdings made a commitment to contribute up to $310.0 million in cash or property to Fund II, which directly or indirectly owns the Brookfield DTLA properties. As of June 30, 2021, $40.7 million is available to the Company under this commitment for future funding. The Series B preferred interest in Fund II held by DTLA Holdings is effectively senior to the interest in Fund II indirectly held by the Company and has a priority on distributions senior to the equity securities of such subsidiaries held indirectly by the Company and, as a result, effectively rank senior to the Series A preferred stock. The Series B preferred interest in Fund II may limit the amount of funds available to the Company for any purpose, including for dividends or other distributions to holders of its capital stock, including the Series A preferred stock.

The Series A-1 preferred interest, senior participating preferred interest and Series B preferred interest are held by a noncontrolling interest holder. Series A preferred stock, Series A-1 preferred interest, senior participating preferred interest and Series B preferred interest (collectively, the “Preferred Interests”) are classified as mezzanine equity because they are callable, and the holder of the Series A-1 preferred interest, senior participating preferred interest, Series B preferred interest, and some of the Series A preferred stock indirectly controls the ability to elect to redeem such instruments, through its controlling interest in the Company and its subsidiaries. See Note 9—“Mezzanine Equity.”

Stockholders’ Deficit Component

Common interests held by DTLA Holdings are presented as “noncontrolling interests” as part of Stockholders’ Deficit in the consolidated balance sheets.

(1)Cash available to Fund II arises from its interests in its investments. Fund II owns indirectly all of the interests in Gas Company Tower, Wells Fargo Center–South Tower, Wells Fargo Center–North Tower, 777 Tower and an interest in the 755 South Figueroa development site which will decrease as capital is called to fund the development. See Note 1 “Organization and Description of Business”. In addition, Fund II owns 96% indirectly of the interests in EY Plaza, FIGat7th and BOA Plaza (the “Fund III Assets”). DTLA Holdings owns the remaining 4% interest in the Fund III Assets. The amounts due to DTLA Holdings on the senior participating preferred interest for its preferred return and unreturned capital in Fund III were fully paid as of December 31, 2015. All of Fund II’s interests in these assets are subject to certain REIT accommodation preferred interests. This waterfall may be effected by future equity issuances in respect of Fund II, Fund III, Fund IV, or their subsidiaries, and are subject to all of the indebtedness of the entities.
(2)The Fund II Series A preferred interest is comprised of two parts, one is a preferred component with the analogous economic terms as the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock and a common component, which is junior to the preferred component of the Series A interest on analogous terms to the relationship between the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock and Common Stock. The Series A preferred interest is junior to the Fund II Series B preferred interest. See Note 8 “Noncontrolling Interests — Series B Preferred Interest”. Amounts paid in respect of the Fund II’s Series A preferred interest are generally available upon distribution to the Company for further distribution in respect of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, and, when and if distributed in respect of the Series A Preferred Stock, will be distributed first to accumulated and unpaid dividends and to reduce its unreturned liquidation capital.
(3)DTLA Holdings in its capacity as the holder of the Series A-1 preferred interest can waive receipt of distributions that would otherwise be made to it in respect of the Series A-1 preferred interest and such amounts shall be paid instead to the Series A preferred interest or as otherwise provided by the subsequent provisions of the waterfall. Any amounts waived by DTLA Holdings shall not reduce the Series A-1 unpaid preferred return or unreturned capital.
(4)Applicable if distribution is (a) in connection with a liquidating event or redemption or (b) at the election of Brookfield DTLA.
(5)Based on the interests of the Series A and Series B interests of the Fund after repayment of the preferred capital portion of each of them, until the Senior A junior unreturned liquidation capital is reduced to zero.

Note 12—Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. The objective of fair value is to determine the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (the “exit price”).

ASC Topic 820 established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three categories:
Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date.
Level 2—Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets but corroborated by market data.
Level 3—Unobservable prices that are used when little or no market data is available.

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. Brookfield DTLA utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs, to the extent possible, as well as consider counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

Recurring Measurements—

The fair value of Brookfield DTLA’s interest rate swap contracts was determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analyses on the expected cash flows of the derivatives. These analyses reflect the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and use observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The Company has incorporated credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our and the respective counterparty’s non‑performance risk in the fair value measurements. The interest rate swap contracts were terminated in September 2020. See Note 11 “Financial Instruments.”

The fair value of interest rate cap contracts was $20 thousand and $5 thousand as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The Company classified them as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Nonrecurring Measurements—

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Refer to Note 2—“Basis of Presentation —Impairment Review” for further discussion.

Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments—

Secured debt The Company estimates the fair value of its debt by calculating the credit-adjusted present value of principal and interest payments for each loan. The calculation incorporates observable market interest rates (Level 2 inputs), assumes that each loan will be outstanding until maturity, and excludes any options to extend the maturity date of the loan available per the terms of the loan agreement, if any. The table below presents the estimated fair value and carrying value of the Company’s secured debt included in liabilities:
June 30, 2021December 31, 2020
Fair Value$2,263,370 $2,246,225 
Carrying value $2,252,053 $2,239,640 

Other financial instruments As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, tenant and other receivables, other assets, accounts payable and other liabilities, and balances with affiliates approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Note 15—Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

Brookfield DTLA and its subsidiaries may be subject to pending legal proceedings and litigation incidental to its business. After consultation with legal counsel, management believes that any liability that may potentially result upon resolution of such matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or consolidated financial statements as a whole.

Concentration of Tenant Credit Risk

Credit risk arises from the possibility that tenants may be unable to fulfill their lease commitments. Brookfield DTLA’s properties are typically leased to high credit-rated tenants for lease terms ranging from five to ten years, although we also enter into some short-term as well as longer-term leases. As our entire portfolio is located in the LACBD, any specific economic changes within that location could affect our tenant base, and by extension, our profitability.

Brookfield DTLA generally does not require collateral or other security from its tenants, other than security deposits or letters of credit. Our credit risk is mitigated by the high quality of our existing tenant base, review of prospective tenants’ risk profiles prior to lease execution, and frequent monitoring of our tenant portfolio to identify problem tenants. However, since we may have a concentration of lease income from certain tenants, the inability of those tenants to make payments under their leases could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

The measures taken to combat the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic have increased the risk in the near term of our tenants’ ability to fulfill their lease commitments. Certain tenants could declare bankruptcy or become insolvent and cease business operations as a result of prolonged mitigation efforts. See Note 2 “Basis of Presentation—Rents, Deferred Rents and Other Receivables” for a discussion of collectibility of lease income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Forward-Looking Statements disclaimer, and the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto that appear in Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

As used in this section unless otherwise indicated, tabular amounts are presented in thousands, except leasing information, percentage data and years.

Overview and Background

Brookfield DTLA Fund Office Trust Investor Inc. (“Brookfield DTLA” or the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation and was incorporated on April 19, 2013. Brookfield DTLA was formed for the purpose of consummating the transactions contemplated in the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of April 24, 2013, as amended, and the issuance of shares of 7.625% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series A preferred stock”) in connection with the acquisition of MPG Office Trust, Inc. and MPG Office, L.P. (together, “MPG”). Brookfield DTLA is a direct subsidiary of Brookfield DTLA Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“DTLA Holdings”, and together with its affiliates excluding the Company and its subsidiaries, the “Manager”). DTLA Holdings is an indirect partially‑owned subsidiary of Brookfield Property Partners L.P. (“BPY”), an exempted limited partnership under the Laws of Bermuda, which in turn is the flagship commercial property entity and the primary vehicle through which Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (“BAM”), a corporation under the Laws of Canada, invests in real estate on a global basis. On April 1, 2021, BAM and BPY announced an agreement for BAM to acquire 100% of the limited partnership units of BPY. The acquisition was completed in July 2021. We do not expect the acquisition to have any impact to the Company.

Brookfield DTLA primarily receives its income from lease income, including tenant reimbursements, generated from the operations of its office and retail properties, and to a lesser extent, revenue from its parking garages.

Our goal is to continue to be the leading owner and operator of high-quality office properties in the LACBD and to focus on executing long-term leases with financially strong tenants. We operate our business to achieve these objectives with a long term view and will continue to make decisions with that in mind.

Current Period Highlights

COVID-19 Update

Prior to the end of the first quarter of 2020, there was a global outbreak of a new strain of Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) which prompted government and businesses to take unprecedented measures in response. Many states, including California where our properties are located, have implemented “stay-at-home” restrictions to help combat the spread of COVID-19. The State of California order includes the shutdown of all nonessential services, such as dine-in restaurants, bars, gyms and conference or convention centers, and other businesses not deemed to support critical infrastructure (the “Shutdown”). Essential services, such as grocery stores, pharmacies, gas stations, food banks, convenience stores and delivery restaurants, were allowed to remain open. Consequently, business activities and supply chains were interrupted; travel was disrupted; and local, regional, national and international economic conditions were adversely impacted.

The U.S. began a large-scale COVID-19 vaccination campaign in December 2020. In the second quarter of 2021, Los Angeles County officially moved into the less restrictive Orange Tier and the least restrictive Yellow Tier of the California state’s reopening framework, which eases more rules for businesses amid the ongoing pandemic. On June 15, 2021, with California fully reopened its economy, restrictions such as physical distancing, capacity limits and the county tier system were lifted. However, the spread of the delta variant brings uncertainty to the economic recovery. In July 2021, amid a rise in coronavirus cases and hospitalizations, Los Angeles County reinstated its mask mandate that requires masking indoors regardless of vaccination status.

During the first half of 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken to combat the spread of the pandemic has continued to impact numerous aspects of our business and our properties, which are located in the City of Los Angeles. Some of the effects include the following:

Capacity limits were imposed on higher-risk activities and businesses such as indoor dining, bars, fitness centers and movie theaters according to the tier system of the California state’s reopening framework. As a result, our tenants in FIGat7th, which include retail shops, restaurants and a big box gym, experienced the most immediate impact of the restrictions imposed. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, total lease income and parking revenue from FIGat7th represented approximately 4% of the consolidated total, compared to 2% and 3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. Due to the uncertainties posed to our tenants in FIGat7th by these restrictions, during the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized adjustments of $0.5 million, compared to $1.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, to lower our lease income related to certain leases where we determined that the collection of future lease payments was not probable. No material adjustments were made to our retail lease income during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
While our office properties have remained open, most of our office tenants have been working remotely since the “stay-at-home” order was issued. Although state and local authorities began easing restrictions on businesses throughout the first half of 2021, the physical occupancy of our office properties has remained well below capacity as infection rates fluctuated and most employers continued their COVID-19 response protocols and allowed employees to work from home when possible. As of June 30, 2021, most of our office tenants have been current in paying amounts due to us under their leases. Due to the uncertainties posed to our office property tenants by the COVID-19 pandemic, during the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized adjustments of $0.1 million, compared to $1.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, to lower our lease income related to certain leases where we determined that the collection of future lease payments was not probable. No material adjustments were made to our office lease income during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

As a result of the restrictions imposed by state and local authorities that impacted the physical occupancy of both our office and retail properties, parking net operating income, which represents parking revenue less parking expense, declined by $1.2 million or 13% from $9.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 to $7.9 million during the same period in 2021.

Decline in property values resulting from lower than anticipated revenues due to reduced increases in forecasted rental rates on new or renewal leases, applied credit losses, lower leasing velocity and reductions in projected leasing of available space. While the carrying values of the properties are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation, we estimate the undiscounted cashflows and fair values of the properties as part of our impairment review of investments in real estate. See Item 1. “Financial Statements — Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — Note 2 — Basis of Presentation — Impairment Review” for further discussion.

The Company received certain rent relief requests for certain periods in 2020 and 2021 from many of our retail tenants and some of our office tenants as a result of the measures taken to combat the spread of the COIVD-19 pandemic. Some of our tenants have availed themselves of various federal and state relief funds, such as the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and the Paycheck Protection Program, which can be utilized to partially meet rental obligations. While our tenants are required to fulfill their commitments to us under their leases, we have implemented and will continue to carefully consider temporary rent deferrals and rent abatements on a lease-by-lease basis and only consider those which have a justifiable financial basis.

While we cannot be certain as to the duration of the impact of COVID-19, we expect impacts of COVID-19 to affect our financial results at least through the second half of 2021. The future impact of the pandemic on the demand for office space is unclear, as companies consider the repercussion of the pandemic on their business and their demand for labor while, at the same time, evaluate their space requirements in light of their current and projected headcounts and the continued focus on social distancing and employees’ desire for more work-location flexibility. See “Risk Factors—The Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition have been adversely affected and could in the future be materially adversely affected by the ongoing global pandemic of novel strain of the coronavirus.” in Brookfield DTLA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 25, 2021 for additional information.

Leasing Activity and Occupancy Level

The first half of 2021 has continued to be dominated by the COVID-19 pandemic causing significant uncertainty for most sectors, including the commercial real estate industry. Leasing activity, compared to the first half of 2020, decreased as a result. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we executed new and renewal leases totaling 107,277 square feet within our portfolio, compared to 190,445 square feet for the same period in 2020, a decrease of 44% year over year. Contractual expirations and early terminations of leases totaled 185,731 square feet during the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 333,524 square feet for the same period in 2020, a decrease of 44% year over year. As a result of the negative net absorption, occupancy decreased from 81.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2020 to 78.1% for the same period in 2021. See “Leasing Activity” for details.

Financing

In February 2021, Brookfield DTLA closed a $465.0 million interest-only debt secured by Gas Company Tower. This debt, which is scheduled to mature in February 2026, bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.95%. All the proceeds from this debt were used to pay off the original $450.0 million debt that previously encumbered the property and to satisfy the new loans’ required reserves. See “Indebtedness” for details.

Capital Improvements

The atrium development project at Wells Fargo Center was completed during the third quarter of 2020 and the construction of the food vendor spaces is ongoing with openings starting in the second and third quarter of 2021.

In response to the measures taken to combat the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, Brookfield DTLA strategically deferred and cancelled various capital expenditure projects of lower priority since April 2020. Further, during the first half of 2021, expenditures for tenant improvements has continued to decline in response to decreased leasing activity. Accordingly, expenditures for real estate improvements decreased from $31.9 million in the first half of 2020 to $8.7 million for the same period in 2021, a decrease of $23.2 million or 73% year over year.

755 South Figueroa Development

The 755 South Figueroa multifamily site is held by an unconsolidated real estate joint venture in which the Company had an ownership interest of 41.7%. As of June 30, 2021, construction is actively underway with concrete construction complete through eight levels of parking and twelve floors of the superblock. Substantial completion is expected in the fourth quarter of 2022. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, net proceeds of $19.0 million and $32.3 million, respectively, compared to $16.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, were generated from loan draws to fund development costs. Furthermore, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, additional capital contributions of $5.0 million and $13.8 million, respectively, compared to $2.0 million for the same period in 2020, was made by DTLA FP IV Holdings to fund development costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Brookfield DTLA’s business requires continued access to adequate cash to fund its liquidity needs. As of June 30, 2021, we have $195.8 million of liquidity comprised of $82.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, $40.7 million of unused capital contribution commitments available on Series B preferred interest, and $72.8 million available on our secured debt for future drawdown to fund approved leasing costs. The amount of cash Brookfield DTLA currently generates from its operations is not sufficient to cover its investing and financing activities without issuing additional debt or equity, resulting in “negative cash burn,” and there can be no assurance that the amount of Brookfield DTLA’s negative cash burn will decrease, or that it will not increase, in the future. If Brookfield DTLA’s operating cash flows and capital are not sufficient to cover its operating costs or to repay its indebtedness as it comes due, we may issue additional debt and/or equity, including to affiliates of Brookfield DTLA, which issuances could further adversely impact the amount of funds available to Brookfield DTLA for any purpose, including for dividends or other distributions to holders of its capital stock, including the Series A preferred stock. In many cases, such securities may be issued if authorized by the board of directors of Brookfield DTLA without the approval of holders of the Series A preferred stock.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Brookfield DTLA’s primary liquidity sources and uses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

Sources:
Cash provided by operating activities, see “Discussion of Consolidated Cash Flows — Operating Activities ;
Proceeds from additional secured debt financings, see “Indebtedness” and
Contributions from noncontrolling interests, see “Discussion of Consolidated Cash Flows — Financing Activities.

Uses:
Cash used in operating activities, see “Discussion of Consolidated Cash Flows — Operating Activities;
Capital expenditures and leasing costs, see “Capital Expenditures and Leasing Costs
Payments in connection with secured debt, see “Indebtedness” and
Distributions to noncontrolling interests, see “Discussion of Consolidated Cash Flows — Financing Activities.

Capital Expenditures and Leasing Costs

Capital expenditures fluctuate in any given period, subject to the nature, extent and timing of improvements required to maintain Brookfield DTLA’s properties. Leasing costs also fluctuate in any given period, depending upon such factors as the type of property, the length and type of lease, the involvement of external leasing agents and overall market conditions.

Brookfield DTLA expects that capital improvements and leasing activities at its properties will require material amounts of cash for at least several years. According to our 2021 business plan, Brookfield DTLA projects spending approximately $257.2 million over the next five years consisting of $176.4 million for tenant improvements, $69.7 million for leasing costs and $11.2 million for capital expenditures. The expected capital improvements include, but are not limited to, renovations and physical capital upgrades to Brookfield DTLA’s properties, upgrades to emergency generators and replacement of transformers. These projections are estimates and may be subject to changes per future revisions of speculative leasing plans.

See “Indebtedness” below for more information regarding future advance amounts available as of June 30, 2021 under the loans secured by the Wells Fargo Center–South Tower and 777 Tower office properties that can be drawn to fund approved leasing costs, including tenant improvements and inducements and leasing commissions, and, in the case of Wells Fargo Center–South Tower, common area improvements.

On February 5, 2021, Brookfield DTLA refinanced its Gas Company Tower secured loans. The original $450.0 million secured loans were replaced with secured loans of $465.0 million, comprised of a $350.0 million mortgage loan, a $65.0 million mezzanine loan and a $50.0 million mezzanine loan, each of which bears interest at variable rates equal to LIBOR plus 1.89%, 5.00% and 7.75%, respectively. The initial maturity date of these interest-only loans is February 9, 2023. The mortgage loan can be prepaid, in whole or in part, with prepayment fees (as defined in the underlying loan agreement) until February 2022 after which the loan may be repaid without prepayment fees. A voluntary prepayment of the mortgage or mezzanine loans requires a simultaneous pro-rata prepayment of all loans encumbering this property. Brookfield DTLA has three options to extend the loans maturity dates for a period of one year each, as long as the maturity date of the mezzanine loans is extended simultaneously with the mortgage loan, and no Event of Default (as defined in the underlying loan agreements) has occurred. All proceeds from the new secured loans were used to pay off the original $450.0 million encumbrance and to satisfy the new loans’ required reserves. The Company recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $4.6 million, which represented a prepayment premium and debt yield maintenance fee, in interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Non-Recourse Carve Out Guarantees

All of our secured debt is subject to “non-recourse carve out” guarantees that expire upon elimination of the underlying loan obligations. In connection with all of these loans, Brookfield DTLA entered into “non-recourse carve out” guarantees, which provide for these otherwise non-recourse loans to become partially or fully recourse against DTLA Holdings, if certain triggering events (as defined in the loan agreements) occur.

Debt Compliance

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, Brookfield DTLA was in compliance with all material financial covenants contained in the loan agreements.

Certain loan agreements held by Brookfield DTLA contain debt yield and debt service coverage ratios. As of June 30, 2021, Brookfield DTLA was meeting or exceeding these financial ratios, with the exception of the loans secured by Wells Fargo Center—South Tower and Wells Fargo Center—North Tower that did not meet their respective minimum debt yield ratio.

Wells Fargo Center–South Tower —

Pursuant to the terms of the Wells Fargo Center–South Tower mortgage loan agreement, effective September 2020, a cash sweep event commenced as the borrower’s debt yield ratio was under the minimum debt yield ratio. While this does not constitute an Event of Default under the terms of the mortgage loan agreement, any excess operating cash flows are currently swept to a cash account controlled by the loan administrative agent. Funds within this account shall be applied to the borrower's approved operating expenses, capital expenditures and leasing costs; property taxes and insurance; interest and any other amounts due and payable under the loan and interest rate cap contracts; and fees and expenses due to the loan administrative agent.

Wells Fargo Center–North Tower —

As of June 30, 2021the borrower’s debt yield ratio was under the minimum debt yield ratio. While this does not constitute an Event of Default under the terms of the mortgage loan agreement, following the occurrence of such debt yield event, any excess operating cash flows are to be swept to a cash account controlled by the loan administrative agent. Funds within this account shall be applied to the borrower's approved operating expenses, capital expenditures and leasing costs; property taxes and insurance; interest and any other amounts due and payable under the loan and interest rate cap contracts; reserve accounts; and fees and expenses due to the loan administrative agent. The cash sweep has not started as of June 30, 2021.

Decline in occupancy during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was mainly attributable to contractual expirations and early terminations of lease agreements. Leasing volume for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, is down significantly due to the continued impact of the measures taken to combat the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many companies have paused anticipated leasing transactions while they re-direct their focus on addressing the impact of the COVID-19 restrictive measures on their business, including protecting their employees and managing financial and operating matters. At the same time, we have ongoing interest and lease negotiations with existing tenants on lease renewals/extensions and expansion of space and continued negotiations with prospective tenants on leasing of space. On June 15, 2021, with California fully reopened its economy, restrictions such as physical distancing, capacity limits and the county tier system were lifted. Non-essential employees are able to reoccupy office space and most of our tenants are making plans to return to the office. As a result of this progress, the leasing market is starting to reflect growing positive sentiment through increased touring activity.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Discussion of Consolidated Cash Flows

The following discussion of Brookfield DTLA’s cash flows is based on the consolidated statements of cash flows in Item 1. “Financial Statements” and is not meant to be an all‑inclusive discussion of the changes in its cash flows for the periods presented below.

A summary of changes in Brookfield DTLA’s cash flows is as follows:
For the Six Months EndedDollar
Change
June 30,
20212020
Net cash provided by operating activities$43,130 $31,874 $11,256 
Net cash used in investing activities$(18,401)$(31,730)$13,329 
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities$(25,856)$10,233 $(36,089)

Operating Activities

Brookfield DTLA’s cash flows from operating activities are primarily dependent upon (1) the occupancy level of its portfolio, (2) the rental rates achieved on its leases, (3) the collectibility of rent and other amounts billed to tenants and (4) changes in working capital. The increase in cash provided by operating activities is primarily attributable to cash inflows from working capital changes by $10.4 million and decreases in interest payments on secured debt by $8.2 million. The cash inflows were partially offset by decreases in cash lease revenue by $5.5 million and parking net operating income by $1.2 million, reflecting the reduction in both contractual and physical occupancy resulting from the “stay-at-home” order implemented since March 2020.

Investing Activities

Brookfield DTLA’s cash flows from investing activities are generally impacted by the amount of capital expenditures and tenant improvement activities for its properties. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities was mainly due to decreases in capital expenditures by $10.7 million following the completion of the atrium development project at Wells Fargo Center in the third quarter of 2020.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Financing Activities

Brookfield DTLA’s cash flows from financing activities are generally impacted by its loan activity, and contributions from and distributions to its equity holders, if any. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, net proceeds from the refinancing of the loans secured by the Gas Company Tower and the issuance of Series B preferred interest were the main source of cash provided by financing activities. All proceeds from the new secured loans were used to pay off the original $450.0 million encumbrance and to satisfy the new loans’ required reserves. As Brookfield DTLA had excess cash from operating activities generated from properties, it repurchased $27.3 million of the Series B preferred interest and made distributions of $8.5 million to the Series B preferred interest. In comparison, during the six months ended June 30, 2020, proceeds from the issuance of Series B preferred interest of $25.2 million was the main source of cash provided by financing activities. Cash outflows were mainly driven by repurchases of and distributions to Series B preferred interest of $6.9 million and $7.9 million, respectively, using the excess cash from upsized refinancing of the loans secured by 777 Tower in October 2019 and operating activities generated from other properties.

Lease Income

Lease income decreased largely as a result of a reduction in occupancy to combat the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. See “Leasing Activity” for further details.

Parking revenue and expense

Parking revenue includes monthly and transient parking income. With the restrictive measures imposed on non‑essential businesses and employees working from home, both parking revenue and variable expense decreased accordingly.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Rental Property Operating and Maintenance Expense

Rental property operating and maintenance expense mainly includes janitorial, repairs and maintenance, utilities, insurance, and various other recurring expenses. As most of our office tenants have been working remotely since the issuance of the “stay-at-home” order in March 2020, rental property operating and maintenance expense decreased.

Other Expense

Other expense mainly represents asset management fee and income tax expense. Increase was mainly due to an increase in income tax expense incurred by the Company’s TRS by $1.6 million from $4 thousand during the six months ended June 30, 2020 to $1.6 million for the same period in 2021 on taxable lease termination income.

Interest Expense

Interest expense mainly represents interest expense on secured debt and loss on early extinguishment of debt. Interest expense on secured debt was $37.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $43.5 million for the same period in 2020, primarily due to decline in weighted average LIBOR rates on our variable-rate debt from 0.97% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to 0.14% for the same period in 2021. Such decrease was offset by the loss on early extinguishment of debt of $4.6 million recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2021 for prepayment premium and debt yield maintenance fee charged on refinancing of loans secured by Gas Company Tower in February 2021.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Brookfield DTLA did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, or capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders as of the date this report was filed, June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

See Part II, Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in Brookfield DTLA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 25, 2021 for a discussion regarding our exposure to market risk. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since year end 2020.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Brookfield DTLA maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), Brookfield DTLA carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its principal executive officer and its principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Brookfield DTLA’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, G. Mark Brown, our principal executive officer, and Bryan D. Smith, our principal financial officer, concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in Brookfield DTLA’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended June 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or that are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal control over financial reporting due to the Shutdown. We are continually monitoring and assessing the impact of the Shutdown on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.
