NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF JUNE 30, 2015, AND DECEMBER 31, 2014, AND FOR THE THREE
AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2015 AND 2014

(UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

CIM Commercial Trust Corporation ("CIM Commercial") together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries (which, together with CIM Commercial may be referred to as "we," "us" or "our") primarily acquires, owns, and operates Class A and creative office properties in vibrant and improving urban communities throughout the United States. These communities are located in areas that include traditional downtown areas and suburban main streets, which have high barriers to entry, high population density, improving demographic trends and a propensity for growth. We also obtain income from the yield and other related fee income earned on our investments from our lending activities, which have principally been to borrowers in the hospitality industry. As discussed in Note 6, the lending segment is held for sale at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. We were originally organized in 1993 as PMC Commercial Trust ("PMC Commercial"), a Texas real estate investment trust.

On July 8, 2013, PMC Commercial entered into a merger agreement (the "Merger Agreement") with CIM Urban REIT, LLC ("CIM REIT") and subsidiaries of the respective parties. CIM REIT was a private commercial REIT and was the owner of CIM Urban Partners, LP ("CIM Urban"). The transaction (the "Merger") was completed on March 11, 2014 (the "Acquisition Date"). The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the acquisition method of accounting with CIM Urban considered to be the accounting acquirer based upon the terms of the Merger Agreement. Based on the determination that CIM Urban was the accounting acquirer in the transaction, CIM Urban allocated the purchase price to the fair value of PMC Commercial's assets and liabilities as of the Acquisition Date.

On April 28, 2014, PMC Commercial's charter was amended to increase the authorized shares of common stock of PMC Commercial from 100,000,000 to 1,000,000,000 shares (20,000,000 and 200,000,000 after giving effect to the reverse stock split described below) and PMC Commercial changed its state of incorporation (the "Reincorporation") from Texas to Maryland by means of a merger of PMC Commercial with and into a newly formed, wholly-owned Maryland corporation subsidiary. Also on April 28, 2014, we changed our name from "PMC Commercial Trust" to "CIM Commercial Trust Corporation." Our common stock ("Common Stock") is currently traded on the NASDAQ Global Market (symbol "CMCT").

On April 28, 2014, we filed Articles of Amendment (the "Reverse Split Amendment") to effectuate a one-for-five reverse stock split of the Common Stock, effective April 29, 2014. Pursuant to the reverse stock split, each five shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the reverse stock split were converted into one share of Common Stock. Fractional shares of Common Stock were not issued as a result of the reverse stock split; instead, holders of pre-split shares of Common Stock who otherwise would have been entitled to receive a fractional share of Common Stock received an amount in cash equal to the product of the fraction of a share multiplied by the closing price of the Common Stock (as adjusted for the one-for-five reverse stock split). In connection with and immediately following the filing of the Reverse Split Amendment, we filed Articles of Amendment (the "Par Value Amendment") to decrease the par value of the Common Stock issued and outstanding to $0.001 per share, effective April 29, 2014, subsequent to the effective time of the Reverse Split Amendment. All per share and outstanding share information has been presented to reflect the reverse stock split.

AS OF JUNE 30, 2015, AND DECEMBER 31, 2014, AND FOR THE THREE
AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2015 AND 2014

(UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS (Continued)

CIM Commercial has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"), as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

2. MERGER

The Merger Agreement provided for the business combination of CIM REIT's wholly owned subsidiary, CIM Urban, and PMC Commercial. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, an affiliate of CIM REIT received 4,400,000 shares of newly-issued PMC Commercial Common Stock and approximately 65,000,000 shares of newly-issued PMC Commercial preferred stock. Following the Merger and subsequent increase in our authorized number of shares, each share of preferred stock was converted into 1.4 shares of PMC Commercial Common Stock, resulting in the issuance of 95,440,000 shares of common stock in the aggregate in connection with the Merger, representing approximately 97.8% of PMC Commercial's outstanding shares of common stock.

All shares of PMC Commercial Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger continued to remain outstanding following the Acquisition Date. In addition, stockholders of record of PMC Commercial at the close of the business day prior to the Acquisition Date received a special cash dividend of $27.50 per share of common stock plus that pro-rata portion of PMC Commercial's regular quarterly cash dividend accrued through the Acquisition Date, each of which was paid on March 25, 2014.

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the acquisition method of accounting with CIM Urban considered to be the accounting acquirer based upon the terms of the Merger Agreement. Based on the determination that CIM Urban was the accounting acquirer in the transaction, CIM Urban allocated the purchase price to the fair value of PMC Commercial's assets and liabilities as of the Acquisition Date.

Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements include (1) the historical financial information for CIM Urban for all periods presented, (2) the assets and liabilities of PMC Commercial acquired on March 11, 2014 and still owned or held by us in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2015, respectively, and (3) the results of PMC Commercial's operations and cash flows in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income and cash flows from the Acquisition Date. The equity of CIM Commercial is the historical equity of CIM Urban retroactively restated to reflect the number of shares of stock issued by PMC Commercial pursuant to the Merger Agreement. In connection with the reverse acquisition, for purposes of presenting equity for CIM Commercial, the historical stockholders of PMC Commercial were deemed to have been issued 2,119,244 shares of Common Stock (2,226,509 shares of Common Stock, less 107,265 shares of treasury stock) on the Acquisition Date.

Consideration Transferred—The fair value of the consideration transferred in the reverse acquisition is determined based on the number of shares of stock the accounting acquirer would have to issue to the stockholders of the accounting acquiree in order to provide the same ratio of ownership in the combined entity following the completion of the Merger, and was determined to be the outstanding stock of PMC Commercial as of the Acquisition Date. The fair value of the consideration

2. MERGER (Continued)

transferred was based on the most reliable measure, which was determined to be the market price of PMC Commercial stock as of the Acquisition Date. The computation of the fair value of the consideration transferred, based on the market price of PMC Commercial stock on the Acquisition Date, is as follows:

	(in thousands, except per share data)

PMC Commercial common stock outstanding		2,119
Equity consideration price per share of common stock	$	21.05

Fair value of the equity consideration		44,610
Payment in cash—special dividend		58,279

Total purchase price	$	102,889

Purchase Price Allocation—As CIM Urban was the accounting acquirer in the business combination, it has allocated the purchase price to PMC Commercial's individually identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the Acquisition Date. A bargain purchase gain was recorded as of the Acquisition Date in the amount equal to the excess of the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired over the total purchase price.

The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price:

2. MERGER (Continued)

In order to allow CIM Commercial to increase its focus on Class A and creative office properties, our board of directors (the "Board of Directors") approved a plan for the lending business that, when completed, will result in the deconsolidation of the lending segment. As a result, the lending segment was held for sale at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 (see Note 6).

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, Merger related costs of $0 and $468,000, respectively, were included in transaction costs.

The accompanying financial information reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of our management, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015. Our accompanying interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 16, 2015.

Principles of Consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CIM Commercial and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Investments in Real Estate—Real estate acquisitions are recorded at cost as of the acquisition date. Costs related to the acquisition of properties are expensed as incurred. Investments in real estate are stated at depreciated cost. Depreciation and amortization are recorded on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives as follows:


Buildings and improvements		15 - 40 years
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment		3 - 5 years
Tenant improvements		Shorter of the useful lives or the terms of the related leases

Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life, increase capacity, or improve the efficiency of the asset. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Investments in real estate are evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount to the future net cash flows, undiscounted and without interest, expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets. The estimated fair value of the asset group identified for step two of the impairment testing under U.S. GAAP is based on either the income approach with market discount rate, terminal capitalization rate and rental rate assumptions being most critical, or on the sales comparison approach to similar properties. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. No impairment of long-lived assets was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

Loans Receivable—Our loans receivable included in assets held for sale are carried at their unamortized principal balance less unamortized acquisition discounts and premiums, retained loan discounts and loan loss reserves. For loans originated under the Small Business Administration's ("SBA") 7(a) Guaranteed Loan Program ("SBA 7(a) Program"), we sell the portion of the loan that is guaranteed by the SBA. Upon sale of the SBA guaranteed portion of the loan, the unguaranteed portion of the loan retained by us is valued on a fair value basis and a discount (the "Retained Loan Discount") is recorded as a reduction in basis of the retained portion of the loan.

At the Acquisition Date, the carrying value of our loans was adjusted to the estimated fair market value and acquisition discounts of $33,907,000 were recorded, which are being accreted to interest income, included in income from operations of assets held for sale, using the effective interest method. The amount of acquisition discounts that have not yet been accreted to income at June 30, 2015 was $23,828,000.

A loan receivable is generally classified as non-accrual (a "Non- Accrual Loan") if (i) it is past due as to payment of principal or interest for a period of 60 days or more, (ii) any portion of the loan is classified as doubtful or is charged-off or (iii) the repayment in full of the principal and/or interest is in doubt. Generally, loans are charged-off when management determines that we will be unable to collect any remaining amounts due under the loan agreement, either through liquidation of collateral or other means. Interest income, included in income from operations of assets held for sale, on a Non-Accrual Loan is recognized on either the cash basis or the cost recovery basis.

On a quarterly basis, and more frequently if indicators exist, we evaluate the collectability of our loans receivable. Our evaluation of collectability involves judgment, estimates, and a review of the ability of the borrower to make principal and interest payments, the underlying collateral and the borrowers' business models and future operations in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 450-20, Contingencies—Loss Contingencies, and ASC 310-10, Receivables.

allowance for losses on our impaired loans receivable decreased by $36,000 and increased by $65,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. No impairment on loans receivable was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. We establish a general loan loss reserve when available information indicates that it is probable a loss has occurred based on the carrying value of the portfolio and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required in determining the general loan loss reserve, including estimates of the likelihood of default and the estimated fair value of the collateral. The general loan loss reserve includes those loans, which may have negative characteristics which have not yet become known to us. In addition to the reserves established on loans not considered impaired that have been evaluated under a specific evaluation, we establish the general loan loss reserve using a consistent methodology to determine a loss percentage to be applied to loan balances. These loss percentages are based on many factors, primarily cumulative and recent loss history and general economic conditions.

Deferred Rent Receivable and Charges—Deferred rent receivable and charges consist of deferred rent, deferred loan costs and deferred leasing costs. Deferred rent receivable was $55,313,000 and $53,622,000 at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Deferred loan costs, which represent legal and third-party fees incurred in connection with our borrowing activities, are capitalized and amortized to interest expense on a straight line basis over the life of the related loan, approximating the effective interest method. Deferred loan costs of $10,941,000 and $7,521,000 are presented net of accumulated amortization of $3,251,000 and $1,741,000 at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Deferred leasing costs, which represent lease commissions and other direct costs associated with the acquisition of tenants, are capitalized and amortized on a straight line basis over the terms of the related leases. Deferred leasing costs of $56,511,000 and $55,145,000 are presented net of accumulated amortization of $19,462,000 and $16,917,000 at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Noncontrolling Interests—Noncontrolling interests represent the interests in various properties owned by third parties.

Discontinued Operations—We classify assets as held for sale when they meet the necessary criteria, which include: a) management commits to and actively embarks upon a plan to sell the assets, b) the assets to be sold are available for immediate sale in their present condition, c) the sale is expected to be completed within one year under terms usual and customary for such sales and d) actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. We believe that we meet these criteria because the plan for sale has been approved by the Board of Directors, there are no known significant contingencies related to the sale and management believes it is probable that the sale will be completed within one year.

Assets held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or estimated fair value less cost to sell. Revenues and expenses related to assets held for sale are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

3. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Consolidation Considerations for Our Investments in Real Estate—ASC 810-10, Consolidation, addresses how a business enterprise should evaluate whether it has a controlling interest in an entity through means other than voting rights that would require the entity to be consolidated. We analyze our investments in real estate in accordance with this accounting standard to determine whether they are variable interest entities, and if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary. Our judgment with respect to our level of influence or control over an entity and whether we are the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity involves consideration of various factors, including the form of our ownership interest, our voting interest, the size of our investment (including loans), and our ability to participate in major policy-making decisions. Our ability to correctly assess our influence or control over an entity affects the presentation of these investments in our consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates—The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications—Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income or cash flows.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360). Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, which amends the definition of a discontinued operation and requires entities to provide additional disclosures about disposal transactions that do not meet the discontinued-operations criteria. The revised guidance is effective prospectively to all disposals (or classifications as held for sale) that occur in annual periods (and interim periods therein) beginning on or after December 15, 2014, with early adoption permitted. Entities are prohibited from applying the new ASU to any component, equity method investment, or acquired business that is classified as held for sale before the adoption date. We early adopted this guidance during the second quarter of 2014, and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including the guidance on real estate de-recognition for most transactions. For public entities, the ASU is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Entities have the option of using either a full retrospective or a modified approach to adopt the guidance in the ASU. The modified approach provides entities relief from having to

restate and present comparable prior-year financial statement information; however, entities will still need to evaluate existing contracts as of the date of initial adoption under the ASU to determine whether a cumulative adjustment is necessary. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the new accounting guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15 Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) which requires an entity's management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, when considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. The ASU is effective for the annual reporting period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which is intended to improve targeted areas of consolidation guidance for legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures (collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, and mortgage-backed security transactions). In addition to reducing the number of consolidation models from four to two, the new standard simplifies the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and improves current U.S. GAAP by: placing more emphasis on risk of loss when determining a controlling financial interest; reducing the frequency of the application of related-party guidance when determining a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity (VIE); and changing consolidation conclusions for public and private companies in several industries that typically make use of limited partnerships or VIEs. For public entities, the ASU is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. ASU 2015-02 may be applied retrospectively in previously issued financial statements for one or more years with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first year restated. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which is intended to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. These amendments require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this ASU. For public entities, the ASU is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

The mortgages payable are secured by deeds of trust on certain of the properties and assignments of rents.

The junior subordinated notes may be redeemed at par at our option.

In February 2012, CIM Urban entered into an unsecured revolving line of credit with a bank syndicate, which allowed for maximum borrowings of $100,000,000. Outstanding advances under the line of credit bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.75% to 2.50% until August 2013. In August 2013, the unsecured revolving line was amended, and outstanding advances under the line of credit bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.25% to 1.85%. The line of credit was also subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.25% or 0.35% depending on the amount of aggregate unused commitments. This line of credit was terminated and repaid in full in September 2014.

In August 2013, CIM Urban entered into another unsecured revolving line of credit with a bank syndicate, as amended in April 2014, which allowed for maximum borrowings of $200,000,000. Outstanding advances under the line of credit bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.25% to 1.85%. The line of credit was also subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.25% or 0.35% depending on the amount of aggregate unused commitments. This line of credit was terminated and repaid in full in September 2014.

In September 2014, CIM Commercial entered into an $850,000,000 unsecured credit facility with a bank syndicate consisting of a $450,000,000 revolver, a $325,000,000 term loan and a $75,000,000 delayed-draw term loan. The credit facility can be increased to $1,150,000,000 under certain conditions. CIM Commercial is subject to certain financial maintenance covenants and a minimum property ownership condition. Outstanding advances under the revolver bear interest at (i) the base rate, plus 0.20% to 1.00% or (ii) LIBOR plus 1.20% to 2.00%, depending on the maximum consolidated leverage ratio. Outstanding advances under the term loans bear interest at (i) the base rate, plus 0.15% to 0.95% or (ii) LIBOR plus 1.15% to 1.95%, depending on the maximum consolidated leverage ratio. The revolver is also subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.15% or 0.25% depending on the amount of aggregate unused commitments. The delayed draw term loan was also subject to an unused line fee of 0.25%. The credit facility matures in September 2016 and provides for two one-year extension options under certain conditions. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, $415,000,000 ($15,000,000 under the revolver and $400,000,000 under the term loans) and $360,000,000 ($35,000,000 under the revolver and $325,000,000 under the term loans), respectively, was outstanding under the credit facility and $435,000,000 and $490,000,000, respectively, was available for future borrowings. Proceeds from the unsecured credit facility were used for acquisitions and general corporate purposes and to repay $323,000,000 outstanding under our prior unsecured credit facilities. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the interest rate on this unsecured credit facility ranged from 1.34% to 1.39% and 1.31% to 1.37%, respectively.

Outstanding advances under the term loan facility bear interest at (i) the base rate plus 0.60% to 1.25% or (ii) LIBOR plus 1.60% to 2.25%, depending on the maximum consolidated leverage ratio. The unused portion of the term loan facility is also subject to an unused fee of 0.20%. With some exceptions, any prepayment of the term loan facility prior to May 2017 will be subject to a prepayment fee up to 2% of the outstanding principal amount. The term loan facility matures in May 2022. As of August 5, 2015, no amount has been drawn under the term loan facility. We have six months from the effective date to draw on the term loan facility and anticipate that we will fully draw on this facility prior to November 2015. Proceeds from the term loan facility may be used for acquisitions, refinancing of certain existing debt and other general corporate purposes.

At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we were in compliance with all of our respective financial covenants.

On April 1, 2015, we paid off a mortgage with an outstanding balance of $12,364,000 using the unsecured credit facility.

At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, accrued interest and unused commitment fees payable of $976,000 and $967,000, respectively, are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

expense of $27,000 and $31,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $59,000 and $31,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, related to these restricted shares of Common Stock.

We issued an aggregate of 4,000 restricted shares of Common Stock to two of our executive officers comprised of 2,000 shares of Common Stock issued on May 6, 2014 and 2,000 shares of Common Stock issued on March 6, 2015. The restricted shares of Common Stock vest based on two years of continuous service with one-third of the shares of Common Stock vesting immediately upon issuance and one-third vesting at the end of each of the next two years. Compensation expense related to these restricted shares of Common Stock is recognized over the vesting period. We recognized compensation expense of $8,000 and $19,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $26,000 and $19,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, related to these restricted shares of Common Stock.

As of June 30, 2015, there was $103,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to these restricted shares of Common Stock which will be recognized over the next two years.

In addition, on June 12, 2014, we granted 11,850 options with an exercise price of $23.16 (the closing price of our Common Stock on such date). We recorded compensation expense of $8,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 related to this option grant. These options were forfeited effective January 31, 2015.

9. EARNINGS PER SHARE ("EPS")

The computations of basic EPS are based on our weighted average shares outstanding. The basic weighted average common shares outstanding were 97,589,000 and 97,571,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 97,586,000 and 96,758,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the weighted average shares outstanding were increased by 0 and 5,000 shares, respectively, to reflect the dilutive effect of stock options; for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the dilutive effect of stock options was 0 and 6,000 shares, respectively. EPS for the year to date period may differ from the sum of quarterly EPS amounts due to the required method of computing EPS in the respective periods.

For purposes of calculating basic EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the approximately 65,000,000 shares of preferred stock issued in connection with the Merger were assumed to have been converted into approximately 91,040,000 shares of Common Stock. As of the Acquisition Date, a subsidiary of CIM REIT had agreed to vote its 97.8% post-Merger ownership of CIM Commercial in favor of an increase in the number of authorized CIM Commercial shares of Common Stock to one billion (200,000,000 after giving effect to the reverse stock split), thereby satisfying the condition for the automatic conversion of these shares. The actual conversion of the shares of preferred stock to shares of Common Stock occurred on April 29, 2014.

CIM Urban paid a distribution of $16,100,000 in 2014 prior to the Acquisition Date ($0.1685 per share of Common Stock, as converted).

On March 24, 2014, we declared a common share dividend of $0.05 per share of Common Stock and a preferred dividend of $0.0403 per share of preferred stock ($0.0285 per share of Common Stock as converted) which were paid on March 28, 2014.

On April 28, 2014, we declared a dividend in the aggregate amount of $1,964,000 to the preferred stockholders ($0.0302 per share of preferred stock and $0.0215 per share of Common Stock as converted) in connection with the conversion of shares of preferred stock to shares of Common Stock, which was paid on June 27, 2014.

On June 12, 2014, we declared a common share dividend of $0.21875 per share of Common Stock which was paid on June 27, 2014.

In addition, dividends of $59,286,000 ($27.975 per share of Common Stock) were paid to the PMC Commercial stockholders in connection with the Merger, which includes the $27.50 per share of Common Stock special dividend plus the $0.475 pro rata portion of PMC Commercial's regular quarterly cash dividend.

11. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

A fair value measurement is based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value is as follows:

Level 1 Inputs—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 Inputs—Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

Level 3 Inputs—Unobservable inputs

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

11. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

The estimated fair values of those financial instruments which are not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis on our consolidated balance sheets were as follows:

	June 30, 2015				December 31, 2014

	Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value		Level

Liabilities:

Junior subordinated notes		24,942		24,955		24,906		24,877		3
Mortgages payable		207,702		211,953		223,808		231,806		3
Unsecured credit facilities		415,000		415,000		360,000		360,000		3

Management's estimation of the fair value of our financial instruments is based on a Level 3 valuation in the fair value hierarchy established for disclosure of how a company values its financial instruments. In general, quoted market prices from active markets for the identical financial instrument (Level 1 inputs), if available, should be used to value a financial instrument. If quoted prices are not available for the identical financial instrument, then a determination should be made if Level 2 inputs are available. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar financial instruments in active markets for identical or similar financial instruments in markets that are not active (i.e., markets in which there are few transactions for the financial instruments, the prices are not current, price quotations vary substantially, or in which little information is released publicly). There is limited reliable market information for our financial instruments and we utilize other methodologies based on unobservable inputs for valuation purposes since there are no Level 1 or Level 2 inputs available. Accordingly, Level 3 inputs are used to measure fair value.

In general, estimates of fair value may differ from the carrying amounts of the financial assets and liabilities primarily as a result of the effects of discounting future cash flows. Considerable judgment is required to interpret market data and develop estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented are made at a point in time and may not be indicative of the amounts we could realize in a current market exchange.

Loans Receivable Subject to Credit Risk—Loans receivable were initially recorded at estimated fair value at the Acquisition Date. Loans receivable originated subsequent to the Acquisition Date are recorded at cost upon origination and adjusted by net loan origination fees and discounts. In order to determine the estimated fair value of our loans receivable, we use a present value technique for the

anticipated future cash flows using certain assumptions. At June 30, 2015, our assumptions included discount rates ranging from 6.75% to 15.00% and prepayment rates of 15.00%. At December 31, 2014, our assumptions included discount rates ranging from 5.90% to 14.90% and prepayment rates of 15.00%.

SBA 7(a) Loans Receivable, Subject to Secured Borrowings—These loans receivable represent the government guaranteed portion of loans which were sold with the proceeds received from the sale reflected as secured borrowings-government guaranteed loans (a liability associated with assets held for sale on our consolidated balance sheets (Note 6)). There is no credit risk associated with these loans since the SBA has guaranteed payment of the principal. In order to determine the estimated fair value of these loans receivable, we use a present value technique for the anticipated future cash flows taking into consideration the lack of credit risk using a prepayment rate of 15.00%.

Commercial Real Estate Loans—In order to determine the estimated fair value of our commercial real estate loan receivable which consists of one mezzanine loan, we use a present value technique for the anticipated future cash flows using certain assumptions including a discount rate of 9.72%. There is no prepayment anticipated and no potential credit deterioration anticipated on this loan.

Secured Borrowings—Government Guaranteed Loans—The carrying amount of secured borrowings-government guaranteed loans approximates fair value, as the interest rates on these secured borrowings approximate current market interest rates, and includes the unamortized deferred cash premiums collected on the sale of the government guaranteed portions of the related loans, which are included in liabilities associated with assets held for sale.

Junior Subordinated Notes—The fair value of the junior subordinated notes is estimated based on current interest rates available for debt instruments with similar terms. Discounted cash flow analysis is generally used to estimate the fair value of our junior subordinated notes. The rate used was 4.11% and 3.83% at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Unsecured Credit Facilities—The carrying amount is a reasonable estimation of fair value as the interest rates on the unsecured credit facilities are variable and are at current market interest rates.

Mortgage Notes Payable—The fair values of mortgage notes are estimated based on current interest rates available for debt instruments with similar terms. The fair value of our mortgages payable is sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates. Discounted cash flow analysis is generally used to estimate the fair value of our mortgages payable, using rates ranging from 4.20% to 4.55% at June 30, 2015 and 3.92% to 4.12% at December 31, 2014.

Based on the annual escalation factor, the Base Service Fee for 2015 is $1,010,000. The Base Service Fee began to accrue on the Acquisition Date and was pro-rated based on the number of days during the first quarter in which the Master Services Agreement was in effect. The Manager earned a Base Service Fee of $253,000 and $250,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $506,000 and $306,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Master Services Agreement, the Manager may receive compensation for performing certain services for CIM Commercial and its subsidiaries that are not covered under the Base Service Fee. During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, such services performed by the Manager included accounting, tax, reporting, internal audit, legal, compliance, risk management, IT, human resources and corporate communications. The Manager's compensation is based on the salaries and benefits of the employees of the Manager and/or its affiliates who performed these services (allocated based on the percentage of time spent on the affairs of CIM Commercial and its subsidiaries). We expensed $899,000 and $290,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $1,590,000 and $290,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, for such services. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, $1,825,000 and $725,000 was due to the Manager, respectively, for such services.

As of January 1, 2015, all of our employees moved to CIM SBA Staffing, LLC, ("CIM SBA"), an affiliate of CIM Group, L.P. ("CIM Group"), except for two of our executives, who became jointly employed by us and CIM SBA and their employment agreements with us continue in full force and effect. In connection with this move, on January 1, 2015, we entered into a Staffing and Reimbursement Agreement with CIM SBA and our subsidiary, PMC Commercial Lending, LLC, which provides that CIM SBA will provide personnel and resources to us and that we will reimburse CIM SBA for the costs and expenses of providing such personnel and resources. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, we expensed $1,093,000 and $128,000 related to services subject to reimbursement by us under this agreement which are included in discontinued operations and asset management and other fees to related parties, respectively; for the six months ended June 30, 2015, we expensed $2,236,000 and $251,000 related to such services which are included in discontinued operations and asset management and other fees to related parties, respectively.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Loan Commitments—Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer provided the terms established in the contract are met. Our outstanding loan commitments and approvals to fund loans were $20,384,000 at June 30, 2015, the majority of which were for prime-based loans to be originated by our subsidiary engaged in SBA 7(a) Program loans, the government guaranteed portion of which is intended to be sold. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates. Since some commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)

General—In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate properties, we have certain obligations for the payment of tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions in connection with new leases and renewals. CIM Commercial had a total of $23,883,000 in future obligations under leases to fund tenant improvements and other future construction obligations at June 30, 2015.

Employment Agreements—We have employment agreements with two of our executive officers. Under certain circumstances, as defined within the agreements, the agreements provide for (1) severance compensation or change in control payments to the executive officer in an amount equal to 2.99 times the average of the last three years' annual compensation paid to the executive officer and (2) death and disability payments in an amount equal to two times and one time, respectively, the annual salary paid to the executive officer. In addition, to the extent the executive is employed by us on January 1, 2016 and such executive is not entitled to any disability, death or severance payments, the executive would receive share awards as a retention bonus which would vest immediately upon grant. In aggregate, the executive officers would receive 105,000 share awards. We recorded compensation expense of $316,000 and $315,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, related to these share awards; for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, such compensation expense was $632,000 and $315,000, respectively. At June 30, 2015, there was $631,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense relating to these share awards that will be recognized during 2015.

Litigation—At December 31, 2014, we recorded a liability of $4,475,000 at one of our multifamily investments. The $4,475,000 liability, together with an additional tax abatement reimbursement related to the period from January 1, 2015 to March 11, 2015, was settled in February 2015 for a total of $4,721,000. Prior to our acquisition of the property, the former owners of the property enrolled the property in a property tax abatement program under Section 421-a of the New York Real Property Tax Law. At the time we acquired the property, the property was being used for corporate housing. This use continued from the time of acquisition and terminated in March 2015. The New York State Attorney General's office recently determined that the use of the property for corporate housing was inconsistent with the tax abatement program. In cooperation with the New York State Attorney General, we refunded the tax abatements received during the period we owned the property while it was being used for corporate housing. Our agreement with the New York State Attorney General does not affect the ability of the property to receive tax abatements in the future.

We are not currently involved in any other material pending or threatened legal proceeding nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding currently threatened against us, other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. In the normal course of business, we are periodically a party to certain legal actions and proceedings involving matters that are generally incidental to our business. While the outcome of these legal actions and proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, in management's opinion, the resolution of these legal proceedings and actions will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)

SBA Related—If the SBA establishes that a loss on an SBA guaranteed loan is attributable to significant technical deficiencies in the manner in which the loan was originated, funded or serviced under the SBA 7(a) Program, the SBA may seek recovery of the principal loss related to the deficiency from us. With respect to the guaranteed portion of SBA loans that have been sold, the SBA will first honor its guarantee and then seek compensation from us in the event that a loss is deemed to be attributable to technical deficiencies. Based on historical experience, we do not expect that this contingency is probable to be asserted. However, if asserted, it could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Environmental Matters—In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate properties, we may be potentially liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters, including asbestos-containing materials. We have not been notified by any governmental authority of any noncompliance, liability, or other claim in connection with any of the properties, and we are not aware of any other environmental condition with respect to any of the properties that management believes will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Rent Expense—The ground lease for a property provides for current annual rent of $503,000, payable quarterly, inclusive of an increase on June 1, 2015, and increases every five years thereafter based on the greater of 15% or 50% of the increase in the Consumer Price Index during a five-year adjustment period. In addition, commencing on June 1, 2040 and June 1, 2065, the rent payable during the balance of the lease term shall be increased by an amount equal to 10% of the rent payable during the immediately preceding lease year. The lease term is through May 31, 2089. If the landlord decides to sell the leased property, we have the right of first refusal.

Rent expense under this lease, which includes straight line rent and amortization of acquired below-market ground lease, was $438,000 for each of the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, and $876,000 for each of the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. We record rent expense on a straight line basis. Straight line rent liability of $11,625,000 and $11,038,000 is included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

We lease office space in Dallas, Texas under a lease which expires in May 2018. We recorded rent expense of $72,000 and $49,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $130,000 and $65,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and the period from the Acquisition Date through June 30, 2014, respectively, which is included in discontinued operations.

15. CONCENTRATIONS

Tenant Revenue Concentrations—Rental revenues from the U.S. General Services Administration and other government agencies (collectively, "Governmental Tenants"), which primarily occupy properties located in Washington, D.C., accounted for approximately 22.9% and 24.5% of our rental and other property income for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and 22.8% and 25.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, $6,915,000 and $7,168,000, respectively, was due from Governmental Tenants (see Note 14).

Geographical Concentrations of Investments in Real Estate—As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we owned 21 office properties, five multifamily properties, and three hotel properties, located in four states and Washington, D.C.

16. SEGMENT DISCLOSURE

In accordance with ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, our reportable segments consist of three types of commercial real estate properties, namely, office, hotel and multifamily, as well as a segment for our lending operations, which is held for sale as of June 30, 2015. Management internally evaluates the operating performance and financial results of the segments based on net operating income. We also have certain general and administrative level activities, including public company expenses, legal, accounting, and tax preparation that are not considered separate operating segments. The reportable segments are accounted for on the same basis of accounting as described in the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 16, 2015.

We evaluate the performance of our real estate segments based on net operating income, which is defined as rental and other property income and tenant reimbursements less property and related expenses, and excludes nonproperty income and expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, corporate related general and administrative expenses, and transaction costs.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created thereby. Such forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "expect," "intend," "believe," "anticipate," "seek," "plan," "estimate," or "continue," or the negative thereof or other variations or similar words or phrases. These statements include the plans and objectives of management for future operations, including, but not limited to, plans and objectives relating to future growth and availability of funds. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations and there can be no assurance that these expectations will be attained. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. Although we believe that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives and plans will be achieved. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We do not undertake to update them to reflect changes that occur after the date they are made.

The following discussion of our financial condition at June 30, 2015 and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. For a more detailed description of the risks affecting our financial condition and results of operations, see "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

All references to Common Stock and related per share data have been adjusted in this Form 10-Q to reflect the reverse stock split.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Business Overview

Our principal business is to acquire, own, and operate Class A and creative office properties in vibrant and improving urban communities throughout the United States. These communities are located in areas that include traditional downtown areas and suburban main streets, which have high barriers-to-entry, high population density, improving demographic trends and a propensity for growth. We believe that the critical mass of redevelopment in such areas creates positive externalities, which enhance the value of substantially stabilized assets in the area. We believe that these assets will provide greater returns than similar assets in other markets, as a result of the improving demographics, public commitment, and significant private investment that characterize these areas.

Our real estate business is managed by affiliates of CIM Group. CIM Group is a vertically-integrated, full-service investment manager with multi-disciplinary expertise and in-house research, acquisition, investment, development, finance, leasing, and management capabilities. CIM Group is headquartered in Los Angeles and has offices in Oakland, California; Bethesda, Maryland; Dallas, Texas; and New York, New York.

Table of Contents

Properties

As of June 30, 2015, our investments, excluding assets held for sale, consisted of (i) 21 office properties comprised of approximately 5.6 million rentable square feet, (ii) five multifamily properties comprised of 930 units, (iii) three hotels comprised of 1,070 rooms, (iv) three parking garages, two of which have street level retail space, and (v) one development site.

Strategy

Our investment strategy is centered around CIM Group's community qualification process. We believe this strategy provides us with a significant competitive advantage when making urban real estate investments. The qualification process generally takes between six months and five years and is a critical component of CIM Group's investment evaluation. CIM Group examines the characteristics of a market to determine whether the district justifies the extensive efforts CIM Group undertakes in reviewing and making potential investments in its Qualified Communities. Qualified Communities generally fall into one of two categories: (i) transitional urban districts and (ii) well-established, thriving urban areas (typically major central business districts). CIM Group typically spends significant time and resources qualifying targeted investment communities prior to making any acquisitions. Since 1994, CIM Group has qualified 97 communities and has deployed capital in 48 of these qualified communities. Although we may not invest exclusively in Qualified Communities, it is expected that most of our investments will be identified through this systematic process.

We have been reviewing our strategies with respect to certain of our non-office real estate portfolio. As a result of such review, we intend to seek to divest our hotel properties as well as an office building in Orange County, California. We believe that the sales of these properties, together with the plan approved previously by the Board of Directors to sell the lending business, will allow us to increase our focus on stabilized Class A and creative office properties located in vibrant and improving urban communities throughout the United States. We continuously evaluate our portfolio and such review may result in additional dispositions that no longer fit our overall objectives.

The Merger

On July 8, 2013, PMC Commercial entered into the Merger Agreement with CIM REIT, an affiliate of CIM Group, and subsidiaries of the respective parties. The Merger Agreement provided for the business combination of CIM REIT's wholly owned subsidiary, CIM Urban, and PMC Commercial. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Urban II, an affiliate of CIM REIT, received 4,400,000 shares of newly-issued PMC Commercial Common Stock and approximately 65,000,000 shares of newly-issued PMC Commercial preferred stock. Following the Merger and subsequent increase in our authorized number of shares, each share of preferred stock was converted into 1.4 shares of PMC Commercial Common Stock, resulting in the issuance of approximately 95,440,000 shares of common stock in the aggregate in connection with the Merger, representing approximately 97.8% of PMC Commercial's outstanding shares of common stock.

All shares of PMC Commercial Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger continued to remain outstanding following the Acquisition Date. In addition, stockholders of record of PMC Commercial at the close of the business day prior to the Acquisition Date received a special cash dividend of $27.50 per share of PMC Commercial Common Stock plus that pro-rata portion of PMC Commercial's regular quarterly cash dividend accrued through the Acquisition Date, each of which was paid on March 25, 2014.

Furthermore, on April 28, 2014, we filed the Reverse Split Amendment to effectuate a one-for-five reverse stock split of our Common Stock, effective April 29, 2014. Pursuant to the reverse stock split, each five shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the reverse stock split were converted into one share of Common Stock. All per share and outstanding

Table of Contents

share information included herein from before the Reverse Split Amendment has been presented to reflect the reverse stock split unless otherwise noted.

The Merger was completed on March 11, 2014. Upon completion of the Merger, PMC Commercial became the parent of CIM Urban. PMC Commercial reincorporated from Texas to Maryland on April 28, 2014 and, on the same day, changed its name from "PMC Commercial Trust" to "CIM Commercial Trust Corporation."

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the acquisition method of accounting with CIM Urban considered to be the accounting acquirer based upon the terms of the Merger Agreement.

Lending Segment

We will continue to deploy a portion of our capital to our real estate lending platform through our wholly owned subsidiary (d/b/a PMC Commercial Trust) that originates and services loans under the U.S. SBA 7(a) Program as well as through other lending programs which allow us to achieve attractive risk adjusted returns on its loans.

To take advantage of the expertise of CIM, we have begun to originate commercial real estate loans for properties that are primarily located in CIM Group's Qualified Communities. We are targeting investments between $20 million and $100 million with a focus on developing a diversified pool of loans. These loans are typically short duration (five years or less, inclusive of extension options), floating rate and are expected to be:

•: limited and/or non-recourse junior (mezzanine, b-note or 2nd lien) and senior construction loans; or
•: limited and/or non-recourse junior (mezzanine, b-note or 2nd lien) and senior acquisition, bridge or repositioning loans.

We intend to participate a portion of these loans with, and/or syndicate a portion of these loans to, one or more institutional investors.

We have reflected the lending segment as held for sale at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, based on a plan approved by the Board of Directors to sell the lending business that, when completed, will result in the deconsolidation of the lending segment, allowing us to increase our focus on Class A and creative office properties while independently expanding, diversifying and growing the lending business.

Funds from Operations ("FFO")

We believe that FFO is a widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of a REIT and that it is frequently used by security analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. FFO represents net income (loss), computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real estate, real estate depreciation and amortization (other than amortization of deferred financing costs), and after adjustments for non-controlling interests. We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT").

Like any metric, FFO should not be used as the only measure of our performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our real estate properties that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our operating results. Other REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with NAREIT; accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to those other REITs'

Table of Contents

FFO. Therefore, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance and should not be used as a supplement to or substitute measure for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP. FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income to FFO:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,

	2015		2014		2015		2014
	(in thousands)
Net income attributable to stockholders	$	4,976	$	8,399	$	7,708	$	19,618
Depreciation and amortization		17,566		17,286		36,694		33,915
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests		6		115		6		113

FFO	$	22,548	$	25,800	$	44,408	$	53,646

FFO decreased to $22,548,000, or 12.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $25,800,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of $1,586,000 in multifamily net operating income, primarily from recent vacancy in our New York property which is in the process of being re-leased as individual units, an increase of $1,118,000 in asset management fees and other fees to related parties, an increase of $1,021,000 in interest expense from higher debt levels, and an increase of $341,000 in acquisition related costs, partially offset by an increase of $958,000 in hotel net operating income.

FFO decreased to $44,408,000, or 17.2%, for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $53,646,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily attributable to the recognition of the bargain purchase gain of $4,918,000 in the first six months of 2014, an increase of $2,590,000 in asset management fees and other fees to related parties, an increase of $2,387,000 in interest expense from higher debt levels, an increase of $1,282,000 in corporate general and administrative expenses, and a decrease of $2,277,000 in multifamily net operating income, primarily from our New York property which is in the process of being re-leased as individual units, partially offset by an increase of $1,345,000 in office net operating income primarily due to revenues related to the office properties acquired in April and October 2014, and revenue increases at certain properties in the Los Angeles area, which experienced higher occupancy during the first six months of 2015 compared to the first six months of 2014, an increase of $1,503,000 in hotel net operating income primarily due to RevPAR growth, and a $1,669,000 increase from the operations of the lending segment included in discontinued operations, which in the first six months of 2014 included activity for the period from Acquisition Date to June 30, 2014.

Rental Rate Trends

Office Rental Rates: The following table sets forth the annualized rent per occupied square foot across our office portfolio:

	As of June 30,

	2015		2014
Annualized rent per occupied square foot(1)	$	36.37	$	35.77

(1): Represents gross monthly base rent under commenced leases, multiplied by twelve. This amount reflects total cash rent before abatements. Total abatements for the twelve months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were approximately $7,200,000 and $12,000,000,

Table of Contents

respectively. Where applicable, annualized rent has been grossed up by adding annualized expense reimbursements to base rent. Annualized rent for certain office properties includes rent attributable to retail.

Over the next four quarters, we expect to see expiring cash rents as set forth in the table below:

	For the Three Months Ended

	September 30, 2015		December 31, 2015		March 31, 2016		June 30, 2016
Expiring Cash Rents:
Expiring square feet(1)		301,974		264,609		63,648		59,061
Expiring rent per square foot(2)	$	33.09	$	48.03	$	42.75	$	43.03

(1): All month-to-month tenants occupying a total of 72,317 square feet are included in the expiring leases in the first quarter listed.
(2): Represents gross monthly base rent, as of June 30, 2015, under leases expiring during the periods above, multiplied by twelve. This amount reflects total cash rent before abatements. Where applicable, annualized rent has been grossed up by adding annualized expense reimbursements to base rent.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, we executed leases with terms longer than 12 months totaling 125,262 and 278,691 square feet, respectively. The table below sets forth information on certain of our executed leases during the three and six months ended June 30 2015, excluding space that was vacant for more than one year.

			New Cash Rents per Square Foot(2)(3)		Expiring Cash Rents per Square Foot(2)(3)

Three Months Ended June 30, 2015(3)	10	65,360	$	36.86	$	37.68
Six Months Ended June 30, 2015(3)	21	180,180	$	38.45	$	41.83

(1): Based on the number of tenants.
(2): Excludes leases for which the space was vacant longer than one year, month-to-month leases, leases with an original term of less than 12 months, related party leases, and spaces where the previous tenant was a related party.
(3): Cash rents represent gross annual base rent. This amount reflects total cash rent before abatements. Where applicable, annualized rent has been grossed up by adding annualized expense reimbursements to base rent.

Quarterly fluctuations in submarkets, buildings and term of the expiring leases cause large variations in these numbers and make predicting the changes in rent in any specific quarter difficult. Our rental rates and occupancy are impacted by general economic conditions, including the pace of regional and economic growth and access to capital. Therefore, we cannot give any assurance that leases will be renewed or that available space will be re-leased at rental rates equal to or above the current market rates. Additionally, decreased demand and other negative trends or unforeseeable events that impair our ability to timely renew or re-lease space could have further negative effects on our future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Secondary Market Loan Sales

Our lending division, which is reflected as held for sale at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, sells loans originated pursuant to the SBA 7(a) Program. The SBA guaranteed portion of these loans are sold in legal sale transactions to either dealers in government guaranteed loans or institutional investors as the loans are fully funded. These government guaranteed portions of loans may be sold for (1) a cash premium and the minimum 1% SBA required servicing spread, (2) significant future servicing spread and no cash premium or (3) future servicing spread and a cash premium of 10%. We are required to permanently treat certain of the proceeds received from these legally sold portions of loans (those loans sold solely for future servicing spread and those loans sold for a cash premium of 10% and future servicing spread) as secured borrowings (debt), which are included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as liabilities associated with assets held for sale, and 100% of the loans are included in assets held for sale.

Net income decreased to $4,982,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $8,514,000 for the corresponding period in 2014. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of $1,586,000 in multifamily net operating income, primarily from recent vacancy in our New York property which is in the process of being re-leased as individual units, an increase of $1,118,000 in asset management fees and other fees to related parties, an increase of $1,021,000 in interest expense from higher debt levels, and an increase of $341,000 in acquisition related costs, partially offset by an increase of $958,000 in hotel net operating income.

CIM Commercial operates in four segments: office, hotel and multifamily properties and lending. The lending segment is classified as held for sale at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and included in discontinued operations. Set forth and described below are summary segment results for our three segments included in continuing operations.

Revenues

Office Revenue: Revenues include rental revenues from office properties, expense reimbursements and lease termination income. Office properties revenue increased to $47,084,000, or 4.2%, for the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $45,181,000 for the corresponding period in 2014, primarily due to revenues related to the office properties acquired in April 2014 and October 2014, and revenue increases at certain properties in Los Angeles, California, which experienced higher occupancy during the second quarter of 2015 compared to the second quarter of 2014. Additionally, certain properties in the metro Washington D.C. area and Los Angeles, California experienced higher expense reimbursements revenue during the second quarter of 2015 compared to the second quarter of 2014. The increase in revenue at California and the metro Washington D.C. area properties is partially offset

Table of Contents

by a decrease at our North Carolina property due to recognition of fees related to early termination of a large tenant in April 2014.

Hotel Revenue: Hotel revenue increased to $15,822,000, or 6.9%, for the second quarter of 2015 compared to $14,798,000 for the second quarter of 2014. The increase is primarily due to the RevPAR growth at our three hotels, due to increases in both occupancy and rates.

Multifamily Revenue: Multifamily revenue decreased to $4,013,000, or 22.9%, for the second quarter of 2015 compared to $5,208,000 for the second quarter of 2014. The decrease is primarily due to lower multifamily revenue at our New York property for the second quarter of 2015, as our corporate housing tenant terminated its lease in March 2015 and the property is in the process of being re-leased as individual units.

Expenses

Office Expenses: Office properties expenses increased to $20,173,000, or 12.0%, for the second quarter of 2015 compared to $18,009,000 for the second quarter of 2014. The increase is primarily due to an increase in real estate taxes and tenant reimbursable expenses at our California and metro Washington D.C. area properties. We expect the increases in real estate taxes will be sustained for our Washington D.C. area properties for the remainder of the year.

Hotel Expenses: Hotel expenses increased to $10,025,000, or 0.7%, for the second quarter of 2015 compared to $9,959,000 for the second quarter of 2014. The increase is primarily due to increased variable costs associated with higher occupancy during the second quarter of 2015 compared to the second quarter of 2014 at our three hotel properties, offset by a decrease in real estate taxes at our hotel property in Sacramento, California due to a reduction of tax accruals following the receipt of the actual tax assessment.

Multifamily Expenses: Multifamily expenses increased to $3,028,000, or 14.8%, for the second quarter of 2015 compared to $2,637,000 for the second quarter of 2014. The increase is primarily due to an increase in expenses associated with re-leasing our New York property as individual units during the second quarter of 2015, partially offset by a decrease in real estate taxes at one of our Dallas properties, due to a tax appeal refund.

Interest Expense: Interest expense, which is not allocated to our segments, was $5,586,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, an increase of $1,021,000, or 22.4%, compared to the corresponding period in 2014. The increase is mainly due to incremental credit facility borrowings during the last six months of 2014 and in the first six months of 2015 and an increase in amortization of deferred loan costs related to the September 2014 credit facility, partially offset by lower interest expense from amortizing fixed-rate mortgages as a result of the repayment of approximately $12,364,000 in fixed rate mortgages in April 2015.

General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses, which are not allocated to our operating segments, decreased to $1,714,000 for the second quarter of 2015 compared to $2,191,000 for the corresponding period in 2014. The decrease is primarily due to nonrecurring expenses related to the Merger during the second quarter of 2014, and a decrease in salaries, which are included in asset management and other fees to related parties for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as a result of the transfer of our employees to an affiliate effective January 1, 2015 (see Note 12).

Transaction Costs: Transaction costs totaling $373,000 for the second quarter of 2015 represent a $341,000 increase from $32,000 for the second quarter of 2014. The costs incurred during the second quarter of 2015 represent abandoned project costs, costs related to the planned disposition of the lending segment which is held for sale, and costs associated with evaluating strategies for exiting certain

Table of Contents

of our non-office real estate portfolio. The costs incurred during the second quarter of 2014 are associated with the acquisition of one of our office properties in April 2014.

Asset Management and Other Fees to Related Parties: Asset management fees totaled $6,176,000 for the second quarter of 2015 compared to $5,798,000 for the second quarter of 2014. Asset management fees are calculated based on a percentage of the average adjusted fair value of CIM Urban's investments, which are appraised in the fourth quarter of each year. The higher fees reflect a net increase in the fair value of CIM Urban's real estate investments based on the December 31, 2014 appraised values, as well as incremental capital expenditures incurred in the first six months of 2015. In addition, pursuant to the Master Services Agreement entered into on the Acquisition Date, CIM Commercial pays a Base Service Fee equal to $1,000,000 per year (subject to an annual escalation by a specified inflation factor beginning on January 1, 2015, which increased the fee to $1,010,000) to the Manager, a related party. Fees to the Manager totaled $253,000 for the second quarter of 2015 compared to $250,000 for the second quarter of 2014. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Master Services Agreement, the Manager may receive compensation and/or reimbursement for performing certain services for CIM Commercial and its subsidiaries that are not covered under the Base Service Fee. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, we expensed $899,000 for such services, compared to $290,000 in the second quarter of 2014. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, we also expensed $128,000 related to corporate services subject to reimbursement by us under the CIM SBA Staffing and Reimbursement Agreement, pursuant to which all our employees moved to CIM SBA Staffing, an affiliate of CIM Group, effective January 1, 2015. Such costs were included in general and administrative expenses in prior year comparable periods.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense: Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $17,566,000, an increase of $280,000, or 1.6%, compared to the corresponding period in 2014. The increase is primarily due to the depreciation expense associated with additional capital expenditures and the acquisition of the office properties in April 2014 and October 2014, partially offset by decreased amortization of certain acquisition-related assets that became fully depreciated.

Discontinued Operations

Income from Operations of Assets Held for Sale: Income from operations of assets held for sale represents revenues and expenses from our lending segment, including interest income on loans and other loan related fee income, offset by expenses, which include general and administrative expenses, fees to related party, direct interest expense, and provision for income taxes. Income from operations of assets held for sale decreased to $3,984,000 in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $4,344,000 in the second quarter of 2014, mainly due to a decrease in interest and other income resulting primarily from lower volume of secondary market loan sales and lower prepayment fee income during the second quarter of 2015, partially offset by a decrease in interest expense, mainly due to repayment of debt in September 2014.

Net income decreased to $7,714,000 for the first six months of 2015, compared to $19,731,000 for the first six months of 2014. The decrease was primarily attributable to the recognition of the bargain purchase gain of $4,918,000 in the first six months of 2014, an increase of $2,779,000 in depreciation and amortization expense, an increase of $2,590,000 in asset management fees and other fees to related parties, an increase of $2,387,000 in interest expense from higher debt levels, an increase of $1,282,000 in corporate general and administrative expenses, and a decrease of $2,277,000 in multifamily net operating income, primarily from our New York property which is in the process of being re-leased as individual units, partially offset by an increase of $1,345,000 in office net operating income primarily due to revenues related to the office properties acquired in April 2014 and October 2014, and revenue increases at certain properties in the Los Angeles area, which experienced higher occupancy during the first six months of 2015 compared to the first six months of 2014, an increase of $1,503,000 in hotel net operating income due to RevPAR growth, and a $1,669,000 increase from the operations of the lending segment included in discontinued operations, which in the first six months of 2014 included activity for the period from Acquisition Date to June 30, 2014.

the first six months of 2015 compared to the first six months of 2014. Additionally, certain properties in the metro Washington D.C. area experienced higher expense reimbursements revenue during the first six months of 2015 compared to the first six months of 2014. The increase in revenue at California and the metro Washington D.C. area properties is partially offset by a decrease at our North Carolina property due to recognition of fees related to early termination of a large tenant in April 2014.

Hotel Revenue: Hotel revenue increased to $31,541,000, or 8.3%, for the first six months of 2015 compared to $29,137,000 for the first six months of 2014. The increase is primarily due to the RevPAR growth at our three hotels, due to increases in both occupancy and rates.

Multifamily Revenue: Multifamily revenue decreased to $8,918,000, or 12.5%, for the first six months of 2015 compared to $10,192,000 for the first six months of 2014. The decrease is primarily due to lower multifamily revenue at our New York property for the first six months of 2015, as our corporate housing tenant terminated its lease in March 2015 and the property is in the process of being re-leased as individual units, partially offset by an increase at our Dallas properties, resulting from increased rates.

Expenses

Office Expenses: Office properties expenses increased to $39,877,000, or 10.8%, for the first six months of 2015 compared to $35,978,000 for the first six months of 2014. The increase is primarily due to expenses related to the office properties we acquired in April 2014 and October 2014 and an increase in real estate taxes and tenant reimbursable expenses at our California and metro Washington D.C. area properties, offset by a decrease in electricity expense at the metro Washington D.C. area properties. We expect the increases in real estate taxes will be sustained for our Washington D.C. area properties for the remainder of the year.

Hotel Expenses: Hotel expenses increased to $20,743,000, or 4.5%, for the first six months of 2015 compared to $19,842,000 for the first six months of 2014. The increase is primarily due to increased variable costs associated with higher occupancy during the first six months of 2015 compared to the first six months of 2014 at our three hotel properties, partially offset by a decrease in real estate taxes at our hotel property in Sacramento, California due to a reduction of tax accruals following the receipt of the actual tax assessment.

Multifamily Expenses: Multifamily expenses increased to $5,752,000, or 21.1%, for the first six months of 2015 compared to $4,749,000 for the first six months of 2014. The increase is primarily due to an increase in expenses associated with re-leasing our New York property as individual units during the second quarter of 2015, an increase in real estate taxes as a result of reassessments at our Texas properties, and an increase in real estate taxes at our New York property following the loss of tax abatements for part of the first quarter of 2015 while it was being leased by a corporate housing operator.

Interest Expense: Interest expense, which is not allocated to our segments, was $10,989,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, an increase of $2,387,000 or 27.7%, compared to the corresponding period in 2014. The increase is mainly due to incremental credit facility borrowings during the last six months of 2014 and in the first six months of 2015, and an increase in amortization of deferred loan costs related to the September 2014 credit facility, partially offset by lower interest expense from amortizing fixed-rate mortgages as a result of the repayment of approximately $12,364,000 in fixed rate mortgages in April 2015.

General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses, which are not allocated to our operating segments, increased to $3,869,000 for the first six months of 2015 compared to $2,587,000 for the corresponding period in 2014. The increase is primarily due to public company

Table of Contents

expenses, including external audit and legal fees, partially offset by a decrease in salaries, which are included in asset management and other fees to related parties for the first six months of 2015, as a result of the transfer of our employees to an affiliate effective January 1, 2015 (see Note 12).

Transaction Costs: Transaction costs totaling $801,000 for the first six months of 2015 represent a $301,000 increase from $500,000 for the first six months of 2014. The costs incurred during the first six months of 2015 represent abandoned project costs, costs related to the planned disposition of the lending segment which is held for sale, and costs associated with evaluating strategies for exiting certain of our non-office real estate portfolio. The costs incurred during the first six months of 2014 are mainly associated with the Merger, including due diligence costs, legal fees and accounting expenses.

Asset Management and Other Fees to Related Parties: Asset management fees totaled $12,318,000 for the first six months of 2015 compared to $11,479,000 for the first six months of 2014. Asset management fees are calculated based on a percentage of the average adjusted fair value of CIM Urban's investments, which are appraised in the fourth quarter of each year. The higher fees reflect a net increase in the fair value of CIM Urban's real estate investments based on the December 31, 2014 appraised values, as well as incremental capital expenditures incurred in first six months of 2015. In addition, pursuant to the Master Services Agreement entered into on the Acquisition Date, CIM Commercial pays a Base Service Fee initially set at $1,000,000 per year (subject to an annual escalation by a specified inflation factor beginning on January 1, 2015, which increased the fee to $1,010,000) to the Manager, a related party. Fees to the Manager totaled $506,000 for the first six months of 2015 compared to $306,000 for the period from the Acquisition Date to June 30, 2014. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Master Services Agreement, the Manager may receive compensation and/or reimbursement for performing certain services for CIM Commercial and its subsidiaries that are not covered under the Base Service Fee. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, we expensed $1,590,000 for such services, compared to $290,000 in the first six months of 2014. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, we also expensed $251,000 related to corporate services subject to reimbursement by us under the CIM SBA Staffing and Reimbursement Agreement, pursuant to which all our employees moved to CIM SBA Staffing, an affiliate of CIM Group, effective January 1, 2015. Such costs were included in general and administrative expenses in prior comparable periods.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense: Depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $36,694,000, an increase of $2,779,000, or 8.2%, compared to the corresponding period in 2014. The increase is primarily due to the depreciation expense associated with additional capital expenditures, the acquisition of the office properties in April and October 2014, and the acceleration of depreciation for certain assets at a property in Southern California where the tenant ceased operations and vacated our building, partially offset by decreased amortization of certain acquisition-related assets that became fully depreciated.

Discontinued Operations

Income from Operations of Assets Held for Sale: Income from operations of assets held for sale represents revenues and expenses from our lending segment, including interest income on loans and other loan related fee income, offset by expenses, which include general and administrative expenses, fees to related party, direct interest expense, and provision for income taxes. Income from operations of assets held for sale increased to $6,946,000 in the first six months of 2015, compared to $5,277,000 in the first six months of 2014, mainly due to the inclusion of a full six months of operations for our lending segment in the first half of 2015, while in the first six months of 2014 the lending operations are included beginning on the Acquisition Date through June 30, 2014.

Credit Facilities

In February 2012, CIM Urban entered into an unsecured revolving line of credit with a bank syndicate, which allowed for maximum borrowings of $100,000,000. Outstanding advances under the line of credit bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.75% to 2.50% until August 2013. In August 2013, the unsecured revolving line was amended, and outstanding advances under the line bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.25% to 1.85%. The line of credit was also subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.25% or 0.35% depending on the amount of aggregate unused commitments. This line of credit was terminated and repaid in full in September 2014.

In August 2013, CIM Urban entered into another unsecured revolving line of credit with a bank syndicate, as amended in April 2014, which allowed for maximum borrowings of $200,000,000. Outstanding advances under the line bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.25% to 1.85%. The line of credit was also subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.25% or 0.35% depending on the amount of aggregate unused commitments. This line of credit was terminated and repaid in full in September 2014.

In September 2014, CIM Commercial entered into an $850,000,000 unsecured credit facility with a bank syndicate consisting of a $450,000,000 revolver, a $325,000,000 term loan and a $75,000,000 delayed-draw term loan. The credit facility can be increased to $1,150,000,000, under certain conditions. CIM Commercial is subject to certain financial maintenance covenants and a minimum property ownership condition. Outstanding advances under the revolver bear interest at (i) the base rate, plus 0.20% to 1.00% or (ii) LIBOR plus 1.20% to 2.00%, depending on the maximum consolidated leverage ratio. Outstanding advances under the term loans bear interest at (i) the base rate, plus 0.15% to 0.95% or (ii) LIBOR plus 1.15% to 1.95%, depending on the maximum consolidated leverage ratio. The revolver is also subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.15% or 0.25% depending on the amount of aggregate unused commitments. The delayed draw term loan was also subject to an unused line fee of 0.25%. The credit facility matures in September 2016 and provides for two one-year extension options under certain conditions. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, $415,000,000 ($15,000,000 under the revolver and $400,000,000 under the term loans) and $360,000,000 ($35,000,000 under the revolver and $325,000,000 under the term loans), respectively, was outstanding under the credit facility and $435,000,000 and $490,000,000, respectively, was available for future borrowings. As of August 5, 2015, $415,000,000 ($15,000,000 under the revolver and $400,000,000 under the term loans) was outstanding under the credit facility and $435,000,000 was available for future borrowings. Proceeds from the unsecured credit facility were used for acquisitions, general corporate purposes and to repay $323,000,000 outstanding under our prior unsecured credit facilities. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the interest rate on our unsecured credit facility ranged from 1.34% to 1.39% and 1.31% to 1.37%, respectively.

In May 2015, CIM Commercial entered into an unsecured term loan facility with a bank syndicate pursuant to which CIM Commercial can borrow up to a maximum of $385,000,000. The term loan facility ranks pari passu with CIM Commercial's $850,000,000 credit facility described above; covenants under the term loan facility are substantially the same as those in the $850,000,000 credit facility. Outstanding advances under the term loan facility bear interest at (i) the base rate plus 0.60% to 1.25% or (ii) LIBOR plus 1.60% to 2.25%, depending on the maximum consolidated leverage ratio. The unused portion of the term loan facility is also subject to an unused fee of 0.20%. With some exceptions, any prepayment of the term loan facility prior to May 2017 will be subject to a prepayment fee up to 2% of the outstanding principal amount. The term loan facility matures in May 2022. As of August 5, 2015, no amount has been drawn under the term loan facility. We have six months from the effective date to draw on the term loan facility and anticipate that we will fully draw on this facility

prior to November 2015. Proceeds from the term loan facility may be used for acquisitions, refinancing of certain existing debt and other general corporate purposes.

At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we were in compliance with all of our respective financial covenants.

On April 1, 2015, we paid off a mortgage with an outstanding balance of $12,364,000 using the unsecured credit facility.

During the second half of 2015, we plan to pay off two outstanding mortgages with a combined balance of $59,290,000 at June 30, 2015 using proceeds from the unsecured term loan facility or the unsecured credit facility.

We have substantial borrowing capacity, and may finance our future activities through any of the following methods: (i) offerings of common shares, preferred shares, senior unsecured securities, or other equity and debt securities; (ii) the use and potential expansion of our existing revolving credit lines including the use of the credit line we obtained in September 2014, the term loan facility that closed in May 2015, or the use of a new credit line; (iii) the addition of senior, recourse or non-recourse debt using target acquisitions as well as existing investments as collateral; and/or (iv) the sale of existing investments. We expect to maintain leverage levels that are comparable to those of other commercial property REITs engaged in business strategies similar to our own.

Our long-term liquidity needs will consist primarily of funds necessary to acquire properties and to pay for development or repositioning of properties, non-recurring capital expenditures and refinancing of indebtedness. We may not have sufficient funds on hand or may not be able to obtain additional financing to cover all of these long-term cash requirements. The nature of our business, and the requirements imposed by REIT rules that we distribute a substantial majority of our REIT taxable income on an annual basis in the form of dividends, may cause us to have substantial liquidity needs over the long-term. We will seek to satisfy our long-term liquidity needs through cash flows from operations, long-term borrowings, debt and/or equity issuances and/or, to the extent appropriate, property dispositions. These sources of funding may not be available on attractive terms or at all. If we cannot obtain additional funding for our long-term liquidity needs, our investments may generate lower cash flows or decline in value, or both, which may cause us to reduce our dividend or sell assets at a time when we would not otherwise do so.

Available Borrowings, Cash Balances and Capital Resources

We have typically financed our capital needs through investor equity commitments, long-term secured mortgages and short-term lines of credit. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had total indebtedness, exclusive of debt included in liabilities associated with assets held for sale, of $647,644,000 and $608,714,000, respectively. Included in total indebtedness is $415,000,000 and $360,000,000 of borrowings under credit facilities with total capacity of $850,000,000 at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. As of August 5, 2015, no amount has been drawn under our new $385,000,000 term loan facility.

Cash Flow Analysis

As a REIT, our cash flows from operations are typically used to fund our dividends.

Our cash and cash equivalents, inclusive of cash associated with assets held for sale, totaled $31,194,000 and $27,552,000 at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Our cash flows from operating activities are primarily dependent upon the occupancy level of our real estate assets, the rental rates achieved through our leases, the collectability of rent and recoveries from our tenants, and cash flows associated with loans originated at our lending segment. Our cash flows from operating activities are also impacted by fluctuations in operating expenses and other general and administrative

Table of Contents

costs. Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $37,050,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, an increase of $380,000 compared to the corresponding period in 2014.

Our cash flows from investing activities are primarily related to property acquisitions and sales, expenditures for development and redevelopment projects, capital expenditures and cash flows associated with loans originated at our lending segment. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $24,315,000, a decrease of $13,805,000, compared to the corresponding period in 2014. The decrease was primarily due to $44,936,000 in acquisitions of real estate properties in the first six months of 2014, partially offset by a $3,185,000 decrease in cash and cash equivalents related to the cash acquired in the Merger during the first six months of 2014, an increase in loans funded of $16,245,000, and a decrease of $12,290,000 in principal collected on loans due to a reduction in prepayments on our loans receivable.

Our cash flows from financing activities are generally impacted by borrowings and capital activities. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $9,093,000, an increase of $13,777,000 compared to net cash provided by financial activities of $4,684,000 in the corresponding period in 2014. We used funds from financing activities primarily to pay dividends of $42,963,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to distributions of $101,642,000 in the aggregate ($42,356,000 to partners and stockholders and $59,286,000 for the acquisition of PMC Commercial) during the corresponding period in 2014. We had net borrowings, inclusive of borrowings of the lending segment held for sale, of $36,943,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $106,713,000 for the corresponding period in 2014. Additionally, deferred loan costs of $3,415,000 were paid during the six months ended June 30, 2015 primarily related to the $385,000,000 unsecured term loan facility.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS, COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, there were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in the information regarding specified contractual obligations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

At June 30, 2015, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Our recently issued accounting pronouncements are described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q.

DIVIDENDS

Our stockholders are entitled to receive dividends when and as declared by the Board of Directors. In determining our dividend policy, the Board of Directors considers many factors including, but not limited to, expectations for future earnings, REIT taxable income (loss) and maintenance of REIT status, the economic environment and portfolio performance. Consequently, the dividend rate on a quarterly basis does not necessarily correlate directly to any individual factor. There can be no assurance that the future dividends declared by our Board of Directors will not differ materially from historical dividend levels.

On March 6, 2015 and June 12, 2015, we declared common share dividends of $0.21875 per share of Common Stock which were paid on March 27, 2015 and June 29, 2015, respectively.

ITEM 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The fair value of our mortgages payable is sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates. Discounted cash flow analysis is generally used to estimate the fair value of our mortgages payable, using rates ranging from 4.20% to 4.55% at June 30, 2015 and 3.92% to 4.12% at December 31, 2014. Mortgages payable with book values of $207,702,000 and $223,808,000 as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, have fair values of approximately $211,953,000 and $231,806,000, respectively.

Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevalent market interest rates. Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. We are exposed to market risk in the form of changes in interest rates and the potential impact such changes may have on the cash flows from our floating rate debt or the fair values of our fixed rate debt. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, excluding premiums and discounts on assumed mortgages and including the debt associated with assets held for sale, $206,155,000 (or 30.1%) and $221,847,000 (or 34.3%) of our debt, respectively, was fixed rate mortgage loans, and $478,444,000 (or 69.9%) and $425,809,000 (or 65.7%), respectively, was floating rate borrowings. Based on the level of floating rate debt outstanding at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, a 12.5 basis point change in LIBOR would result in an annual impact to our earnings of approximately $598,000 and $532,000, respectively. We calculate interest rate sensitivity by multiplying the amount of floating rate debt by the change in rate. The sensitivity analysis does not take into consideration possible changes in the balances or fair value of our floating rate debt.

ITEM 4.
