EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2016 of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to “we,” “us,” “our,” or “our Company” refer to Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references to “our operating partnership” or “the operating partnership” refer to Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. is a real estate investment trust, or REIT, and the sole general partner of our operating partnership. As of March 31, 2016, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. owned approximately 61.5% of the outstanding common units of partnership interest (including unvested restricted units) in our operating partnership, or common units. The remaining approximately 38.5% of outstanding common units are owned by certain of our executive officers and directors, certain of their affiliates, and other outside investors, including funds affiliated with The Blackstone Group L.P. (“Blackstone”) and Farallon Capital Management, LLC. As the sole general partner of our operating partnership, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. has the full, exclusive and complete responsibility for our operating partnership’s day-to-day management and control.

We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and the operating partnership into this single report results in the following benefits:


•	enhancing investors’ understanding of our Company and our operating partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;


•	eliminating duplicative disclosure and providing a more streamlined and readable presentation because a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both our Company and our operating partnership; and


•	creating time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

There are a few differences between our Company and our operating partnership, which are reflected in the disclosures in this report. We believe it is important to understand the differences between our Company and our operating partnership in the context of how we operate as an interrelated, consolidated company. Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. is a REIT, the only material assets of which are the units of partnership interest in our operating partnership. As a result, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of our operating partnership, issuing equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of our operating partnership. Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. itself does not issue any indebtedness but guarantees some of the debt of our operating partnership. Our operating partnership, which is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity, holds substantially all of the assets of our Company and conducts substantially all of our business. Except for net proceeds from equity issuances by Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc., which are generally contributed to our operating partnership in exchange for units of partnership interest in our operating partnership, our operating partnership generates the capital required by our Company’s business through its operations, its incurrence of indebtedness or through the issuance of units of partnership interest in our operating partnership.

The presentation of non-controlling interest, stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of our Company and those of our operating partnership. The common units in our operating partnership are accounted for as partners’ capital in our operating partnership’s consolidated financial statements and, to the extent not held by our Company, as non-controlling interest in our Company’s consolidated financial statements. The differences between stockholders’ equity, partners’ capital and non-controlling interest result from the differences in the equity issued by our Company and our operating partnership.

To help investors understand the significant differences between our Company and our operating partnership, this report presents the consolidated financial statements separately for our Company and our operating partnership. All other sections of this report, including “Selected Financial Data,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” are presented together for our Company and our operating partnership.

In order to establish that the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of each entity have made the requisite certifications and that Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and our operating partnership are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act and 18 U.S.C. §1350, this report also includes separate “Item 4. Controls and Procedures” sections and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications for each of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and our operating partnership.

1. Organization

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. is a Maryland corporation formed on November 9, 2009 that did not have any meaningful operating activity until the consummation of its initial public offering and the related acquisition of its predecessor and certain other entities on June 29, 2010 (“IPO”). Since the completion of the IPO, the concurrent private placement, and the related formation transactions, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. has been a fully integrated, self-administered, and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Through its controlling interest in the operating partnership and its subsidiaries, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. owns, manages, leases, acquires and develops real estate, consisting primarily of office and media and entertainment properties. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in these financial statements to the “Company” refer to Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references to the “our operating partnership” or “the operating partnership” refer to Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

On April 1, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of the EOP Northern California Portfolio (“EOP Acquisition”) from Blackstone Real Estate Partners V and VI (“Blackstone”). The EOP Acquisition consisted of 26 high-quality office assets totaling approximately 8.2 million square feet and two development parcels located throughout the San Francisco Peninsula, Redwood Shores, Palo Alto, Silicon Valley and North San Jose submarkets. The total consideration paid for the EOP Acquisition before certain credits, prorations, and closing costs included a cash payment of $1.75 billion and an aggregate of 63,474,791 shares of common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and common units in the operating partnership.

As of March 31, 2016, the Company owned a portfolio of 53 office properties and two media and entertainment properties. These properties are located in California and the Pacific Northwest.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company and the operating partnership are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.

The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2016. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. for the year ended December 31, 2015 and the notes thereto.

Certain amounts in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the prior period related to Patrick Henry Drive have been reclassified to be comparable with the presentation as held for sale as of March 31, 2016.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. include the accounts of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc., the operating partnership and all wholly-owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”), of which Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. is the primary beneficiary. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the operating partnership include the accounts of the operating partnership, and all wholly-owned subsidiaries and VIEs of which the operating partnership is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage and share amounts)

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (“Topic 810”): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, to amend the accounting guidance for consolidation. The standard simplifies the current guidance for consolidation and reduces the number of consolidation models through the elimination of the indefinite deferral of Statement 167. Additionally, the standard places more emphasis on risk of loss when determining a controlling financial interest. The Company consolidates all entities that the Company controls through either majority ownership or voting rights. In addition, the Company consolidates all VIEs of which the Company is considered the primarily beneficiary. VIEs are defined as entities in which equity investors (i) do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and/or (ii) do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The entity that consolidates a VIE is known as its primary beneficiary and is generally the entity with (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. As a result of the adoption, the Company concluded that two of its joint ventures and its operating partnership met the definition of a VIE and is the primarily beneficiary of these VIEs. Substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Company are related to these VIEs.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of commitments and contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to acquiring, developing and assessing the carrying values of its real estate properties, its accrued liabilities, and its performance-based equity compensation awards. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current market conditions, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Investment in Real Estate Properties

Acquisitions

When the Company acquires properties that are considered business combinations, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value. These assets and liabilities include, but are not limited to, land, building and improvements, intangible assets related to above-and below-market leases, intangible assets related to in-place leases, debt and other assumed assets and liabilities. The initial purchase price accounting is based on management’s preliminary assessment, which may differ when final information becomes available. Subsequent adjustments made to the initial purchase price accounting are made within the measurement period, which typically does not exceed one year, within the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company assesses fair value based on level 2 and level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy, which includes estimated cash flow projections that utilize discount and/or capitalization rates and available market information. See “Fair value of Assets and Liabilities” below. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions.

The fair value of tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it was vacant. The fair value of acquired “above- and below-” market leases is estimated through cash flow projections utilizing discount rates that reflect the risks associated with the leases acquired. The amount recorded is based on the present value of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the extended term for any leases with below-market renewal options. Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values that are based on the Company’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease. Factors considered include estimates of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods, market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Company includes estimates of lost rents at market rates during the hypothetical expected lease-up periods, which are dependent on local market conditions. In estimating costs to execute similar leases, the Company considers leasing commissions, legal and other related costs. Acquisition-related expenses associated with acquisition of operating properties are expensed in the period incurred.

Cost Capitalization

The Company capitalizes direct construction and development costs, including predevelopment costs, interest, property taxes, insurance and other costs directly related and essential to the acquisition, development or construction of a real estate project. Indirect development costs, including salaries and benefits, office rent, and associated costs for those individuals directly responsible for and who spend their time on development activities are also capitalized and allocated to the projects to which they relate. Capitalized personnel costs for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 were approximately $2.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively. Interest is capitalized on the construction in progress at a rate equal to the Company’s weighted average cost of debt. Capitalized interest for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 was approximately $2.6 million and $2.0 million, respectively. Construction and development costs are capitalized while substantial activities are ongoing to prepare an asset for its intended use. The Company considers a construction project as substantially complete and held available for occupancy upon the completion of tenant improvements but no later than one year after cessation of major construction activity. Costs incurred after a project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, or after development activities have ceased, are expensed as they are incurred. Costs previously capitalized related to abandoned acquisitions or developments are charged to earnings. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as they are incurred.

Operating Properties

The properties are generally carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Company computes depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of generally 39 years for building and improvements, 15 years for land improvements, five to seven years for furniture and fixtures and equipment, and over the shorter of asset life or life of the lease for tenant improvements. Above- and below-market lease intangibles are amortized to revenue over the remaining non-cancellable lease terms and bargain renewal periods, if applicable. Other in-place lease intangibles are amortized to the depreciation and amortization line item of the Consolidated Statements of Operations over the remaining non-cancellable lease term.

Held for sale

The Company classifies properties as held for sale when certain criteria set forth in Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, are met. These criteria include (i) whether the Company is committed to a plan to sell, (ii) whether the asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale, (iii) whether an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan to sell have been initiated, (iv) whether the sale of the asset or disposal group is probable (i.e., likely to occur) and the transfer is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year, (v) whether the long-lived asset or disposal group is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value, (vi) whether actions necessary to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. At the time a property is classified as held for sale, the Company reclassifies its assets and liabilities to held for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the periods presented and ceases recognizing depreciation expense. Properties held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying value or their estimated fair value, less estimated costs to sell. There was one property classified as held for sale at March 31, 2016 and two properties classified as held for sale at December 31, 2015.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company assesses the carrying value of real estate assets and related intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable in accordance with GAAP. Impairment losses are recorded on real estate assets held for investment when indicators of impairment are present and the future undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amount. The Company recognizes impairment losses to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the properties. The Company recorded no impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business acquisitions. The Company’s goodwill balance as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $8.8 million. The Company does not amortize this asset but instead analyzes it on an annual basis for impairment. No impairment indicators have been noted during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash on hand and in banks, plus all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased.

The Company maintains some of its cash in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed the federally insured limit. No losses have been experienced related to such accounts.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists of amounts held by lenders to provide for future real estate taxes and insurance expenditures, repairs and capital improvements reserves, general and other reserves and security deposits.

Accounts Receivable, net

Accounts receivable consist of amounts due for monthly rents and other charges. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from tenant defaults or the inability of tenants to make contractual rent and tenant recovery payments. The Company monitors the liquidity and creditworthiness of its tenants and operators on an ongoing basis. This evaluation considers industry and economic conditions, property performance, credit enhancements and other factors. The Company evaluates the collectability of accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on specific identification of uncollectible accounts and the Company’s historical collection experience. The Company recognizes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the length of time the receivables are past due, the current business environment and the Company’s historical experience. Historical experience has been within management’s expectations.

The following table summarizes the Company’s accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts as of:



	March 31, 2016			December 31, 2015
Accounts receivable	$	18,129		$	22,180
Allowance for doubtful accounts	(1,529		)	(1,021		)
Accounts receivable, net	$	16,600		$	21,159

Straight-line rent receivables, net

For straight-line rent amounts, the Company’s assessment is based on amounts estimated to be recoverable over the term of the lease. The Company evaluates the collectability of straight-line rent receivables based on the length of time the related rental receivables are past due, the current business environment and the Company’s historical experience.

The following table represents the Company’s straight-line rent receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts as

of:

Notes Receivable, net

On August 19, 2014, the Company entered into a loan participation agreement for a loan with a maximum principal of $140.0 million. The Company’s share was 23.77%, or $33.3 million. The note receivable is secured by a real estate property, bears interest at 11.0% and matures on August 22, 2016. Interest is payable monthly with the principal due at maturity. The Company received a $0.4 million commitment fee as a result of this transaction. The balance as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, net of the accretion of commitment fee, was $28.8 million and $28.7 million, respectively. The Company believes these balances are fully collectible.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes rental revenue from tenants on a straight-line basis over the lease term when collectability is reasonably assured and the tenant has taken possession or controls the physical use of the leased asset. If the lease provides for tenant improvements, the Company determines whether the tenant improvements, for accounting purposes, are owned by the tenant or the Company. When the Company is the owner of the tenant improvements, the tenant is not considered to have taken physical possession or have control of the physical use of the leased asset until the tenant improvements are substantially completed. When the tenant is the owner of the tenant improvements, any tenant improvement allowance that is funded is treated as a lease incentive and amortized as a reduction of revenue over the lease term. Tenant improvement ownership is determined based on various factors including, but not limited to:


•	whether the lease stipulates how and on what a tenant improvement allowance may be spent;


•	whether the tenant or landlord retains legal title to the improvements at the end of the lease term;


•	whether the tenant improvements are unique to the tenant or general-purpose in nature; and


•	whether the tenant improvements are expected to have any residual value at the end of the lease.

Certain leases provide for additional rents contingent upon a percentage of the tenant’s revenue in excess of specified base amounts or other thresholds. Such revenue is recognized when actual results reported by the tenant, or estimates of tenant results, exceed the base amount or other thresholds. Such revenue is recognized only after the contingency has been removed (when the related thresholds are achieved), which may result in the recognition of rental revenue in periods subsequent to when such payments are received.

Other property-related revenue is revenue that is derived from the tenants’ use of lighting, equipment rental, parking, power, HVAC and telecommunications (telephone and Internet). Other property-related revenue is recognized when these items are provided.

Tenant recoveries related to reimbursement of real estate taxes, insurance, repairs and maintenance, and other operating expenses are recognized as revenue in the period during which the applicable expenses are incurred. The reimbursements are recognized and presented gross, as the Company is generally the primary obligor with respect to purchasing goods and services from third-party suppliers, has discretion in selecting the supplier and bears the associated credit risk.

The Company recognizes gains on sales of properties upon the closing of the transaction with the purchaser. Gains on properties sold are recognized using the full accrual method when (i) the collectability of the sales price is reasonably assured, (ii) the Company is not obligated to perform significant activities after the sale, (iii) the initial investment from the buyer is sufficient and (iv) other profit recognition criteria have been satisfied. Gains on sales of properties may be deferred in whole or in part until the requirements for gain recognition have been met.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs are amortized over the term of the respective loans and are reported net of accumulated amortization in notes payable, net to the extent they are associated with drawn loans and prepaid expenses and other assets, net to the extent they relate to the unsecured revolving credit facility and undrawn term loans.

Derivative Instruments

The Company manages interest rate risk associated with borrowings by entering into derivative instruments. The Company recognizes all derivatives on the Consolidated Balance Sheets on a gross basis at fair value. Derivatives that are not effective hedges are adjusted to fair value and the changes in fair value are reflected as income or expense. If the derivative is an effective hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value are either offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings, or recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), which is a component of equity. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings.

Stock-Based Compensation

Compensation cost of restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance units under the Company’s equity incentive award plans are accounted for under ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). The compensation committee of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc.’s board of directors will regularly consider the accounting implications of significant compensation decisions, especially in connection with decisions that relate to the Company’s equity incentive award plans and programs.

Income Taxes

The Company’s property-owning subsidiaries are limited liability companies and are treated as pass-through entities or disregarded entities (or, in the case of the entity that owns the 1455 Market Street property, a REIT) for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the activities of these entities.

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2010. The Company believes that the Company has operated in a manner that has allowed Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes commencing with such taxable year, and the Company intends to continue operating in such manner. To qualify as a REIT, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. is required to distribute at least 90% of its net taxable income, excluding net capital gains, to its stockholders and meet the various other requirements imposed by the Code relating to such matters as operating results, asset holdings, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership.

Provided that it continues to qualify for taxation as a REIT, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. is generally not subject to corporate level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to its stockholders. If Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, and is unable to avail itself of certain savings provisions set forth in the Code, all of its taxable income would be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates, including any applicable alternative minimum tax. Unless entitled to relief under specific statutory provisions, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. would be ineligible to elect to be treated as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year for which the Company loses its qualification. It is not possible to state whether in all circumstances Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. would be entitled to this statutory relief.

The Company has elected, together with one of its subsidiaries, to treat such subsidiary as a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) for federal income tax purposes. Certain activities that the Company may undertake, such as non-customary services for the Company’s tenants and holding assets that the Company cannot hold directly, will be conducted by a TRS. A TRS is subject to federal and, where applicable, state income taxes on its net income. The Company’s TRS did not have significant tax provisions or deferred income tax items as of March 31, 2016 and 2015.

The Company is subject to the statutory requirements of the states in which it conducts business.

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage and share amounts)

The Company periodically evaluates its tax positions to determine whether it is more likely than not that such positions would be sustained upon examination by a tax authority for all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, based on their technical merits. As of March 31, 2016, the Company has not established a liability for uncertain tax positions.

The Company and its TRS file income tax returns with the U.S. federal government and various state and local jurisdictions. The Company and its TRS are no longer subject to tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2011. Generally, the Company has assessed its tax positions for all open years, which include 2011 to 2015, and concluded that there are no material uncertainties to be recognized.

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Under GAAP, the Company is required to measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. In addition, the Company is required to measure other financial instruments and balances at fair value on a non-recurring basis (e.g., carrying value of impaired real estate and long-lived assets). Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The GAAP fair value framework uses a three-tiered approach. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:


•	Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;


•	Level 2: quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and


•	Level 3: prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available that requires inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

When available, the Company utilizes quoted market prices from an independent third-party source to determine fair value and classifies such items in Level 1 or Level 2. In instances where the market for a financial instrument is not active, regardless of the availability of a nonbinding quoted market price, observable inputs might not be relevant and could require the Company to make a significant adjustment to derive a fair value measurement. Additionally, in an inactive market, a market price quoted from an independent third party may rely more on models with inputs based on information available only to that independent third party. When the Company determines the market for a financial instrument owned by the Company to be illiquid or when market transactions for similar instruments do not appear orderly, the Company uses several valuation sources (including internal valuations, discounted cash flow analysis and quoted market prices) and establishes a fair value by assigning weights to the various valuation sources.

Changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies can have a material effect on these estimated fair values. In this regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.

The Company considers the following factors to be indicators of an inactive market: (i) there are few recent transactions, (ii) price quotations are not based on current information, (iii) price quotations vary substantially either over time or among market makers (for example, some brokered markets), (iv) indexes that previously were highly correlated with the fair values of the asset or liability are demonstrably uncorrelated with recent indications of fair value for that asset or liability, (v) there is a significant increase in implied liquidity risk premiums, yields, or performance indicators (such as delinquency rates or loss severities) for observed transactions or quoted prices when compared with the Company’s estimate of expected cash flows, considering all available market data about credit and other nonperformance risk for the asset or liability, (vi) there is a wide bid-ask spread or significant increase in the bid-ask spread, (vii) there is a significant decline or absence of a market for new issuances (that is, a primary market) for the asset or liability or similar assets or liabilities, and (viii) little information is released publicly (for example, a principal-to-principal market).

The Company considers the following factors to be indicators of non-orderly transactions: (i) there was not adequate exposure to the market for a period before the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets or liabilities under current market conditions, (ii) there was a usual and customary marketing

period, but the seller marketed the asset or liability to a single market participant, (iii) the seller is in or near bankruptcy or receivership (that is, distressed), or the seller was required to sell to meet regulatory or legal requirements (that is, forced), and (iv) the transaction price is an outlier when compared with other recent transactions for the same or similar assets or liabilities.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Changes to GAAP are established by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of ASUs. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. Recently issued ASUs not listed below are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, because either the ASU is not applicable or the impact is expected to be immaterial.

On April 14, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing. This guidance clarifies two aspects of Topic 606: identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance. On March 17, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net). This guidance clarifies certain aspects of the principal-versus-agent guidance in its new revenue recognition standard related to the determination of whether an entity is a principal-versus-agent and the determination of the nature of each specified good or service. Both updates affect the guidance in ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, and defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. These updates are effective for annual reporting periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact on its consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements.

On March 30, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This guidance simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions related to the accounting for income taxes, classification of excess tax benefits on the statement of cash flows, forfeitures, etc. This update is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2016 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact on its consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements.

On March 15, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-07, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting. This guidance eliminates the retroactive adoption requirement when an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence. This update is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2016 with early adoption permitted. The implementation of this update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements.

On March 14, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-06, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Contingent Put and Call Options in Debt Instruments. This guidance clarifies the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate the payment of principal on debt instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt hosts.This update is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2016 with early adoption permitted. The implementation of this update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements.

On March 14, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-05, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships. This guidance clarifies the accounting treatment when there is a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as the hedging instrument under Topic 815. This update is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2016 with early adoption permitted. The implementation of this update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements.

3. Investment in Real Estate

Acquisitions

The Company’s acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method. The results of operations for each of these acquisitions are included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations from the date of acquisition.

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage and share amounts)

The Company had no acquisitions during the first quarter of 2016. During 2015, the Company acquired 26 office properties totaling approximately 8.2 million square feet and two development parcels throughout Northern California, 4th and Traction and 405 Mateo.

Dispositions

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company sold its Bayhill Office Center property for $215.0 million (before certain credits, prorations, and closing costs). Proceeds received were used to partially pay down the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility. During the first quarter of 2016, the Company recognized a gain of $6.4 million related to the disposal of its Bayhill Office Center property.

During first quarter of 2015, the Company sold its First Financial office property for a gain of $22.7 million.

The Company has not presented the operating results in net income (loss) from discontinued operations for these disposals because they do not represent a strategic shift in the Company’s business.

Held for sale

As of March 31, 2016, the Company determined that its Patrick Henry Drive property met the criteria to be classified as held for sale and reclassified the balances related to such property within the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. Subsequent to March 31, 2016, the Company sold its Patrick Henry Drive property for $19.0 million (before certain credits, prorations, and closing costs).

Senior Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Facilities

New Term Loan Agreement

On November 17, 2015, the operating partnership entered into a new term loan credit agreement (the “New Term Loan Agreement”) with a group of lenders for an unsecured $175.0 million five-year delayed draw term loan with a maturity date of November 2020 (“5-Year Term Loan due November 2020”) and an unsecured $125.0 million seven-year delayed draw term loan with a maturity date of November 2022 (“7-Year Term Loan due November 2022”). These term loans were undrawn as of March 31, 2016. On May 3, 2016, these loans were fully drawn. See Note 14 for details.

A&R Credit

On April 1, 2015, the operating partnership entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 31, 2015 (the “Credit Facility”), which extended the maturity dates and increased the availability of the credit facilities

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage and share amounts)

governed by the prior agreement. On November 17, 2015, the operating partnership amended and restated the Credit Facility (“Amended and Restated Credit Facility”) to align certain terms therein with the less restrictive terms of the New Term Loan Agreement. Borrowings under the Credit Facility were used towards the EOP Acquisition in 2015 and the Amended and Restated Credit Facility is available for other purposes, including for payment of pre-development and development costs incurred in connection with properties owned by the Company, to finance capital expenditures and the repayment of indebtedness of the Company, to provide for general working capital needs and for general corporate purposes of the Company, and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Amended and Restated Credit Facility. On May 3, 2016, the unsecured revolving loan has been fully paid off and the five-year term loan due April 2020 has been partially paid off. See Note 14 for details.

Guaranteed Senior Notes

On November 16, 2015, the operating partnership entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with various purchasers, which provides for the private placement of $425.0 million of senior guaranteed notes by the operating partnership, designated as three notes with various interest rates and maturity dates (“Notes”). The Notes were issued on December 16, 2015 and upon issuance, the Notes pay interest semi-annually on the 16th day of June and December in each year until their respective maturities.

Debt Covenants

The operating partnership’s ability to borrow under the New Term Loan Agreement, the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, and the Note Purchase Agreement remains subject to ongoing compliance with financial and other covenants as defined in the respective agreements, including maintaining a leverage ratio (maximum of 0.60:1.00), unencumbered leverage ratio (maximum of 0.60:1.00), fixed charge coverage ratio (minimum of 1.50:1.00), secured indebtedness leverage ratio (maximum of 0.55:1.00), and unsecured interest coverage ratio (minimum 2.00:1.00). Certain financial covenant ratios are subject to change in the occurrence of material acquisitions as defined in the respective agreements. Other covenants include certain limitations on dividend payouts and distributions, limits on certain types of investments outside of the operating partnership’s primary business, and other customary affirmative and negative covenants.

The operating partnership was in compliance with its financial covenants at March 31, 2016.

Repayment Guaranties

Sunset Gower and Sunset Bronson Loan

In connection with the loan secured by the Sunset Gower and Sunset Bronson properties, the Company has guaranteed in favor of and promised to pay to the lender 19.5% of the principal payable under the loan in the event the borrower, a wholly-owned entity of the operating partnership, does not do so. At March 31, 2016, the outstanding balance was $115.0 million, which results in a maximum guarantee amount for the principal under this loan of $22.4 million. Furthermore, the Company agreed to guarantee the completion of the construction improvements, including tenant improvements, as defined in the agreement, in the event of any default of the borrower. If the borrower fails to complete the remaining required work, the guarantor agrees to perform timely all of the completion obligations, as defined in the agreement.

The Company has various stock compensation arrangements, which are more fully described in Part IV, Item 15(a) “Financial Statement and Schedules—Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Equity” in its 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Under the 2010 Incentive Award Plan, as amended (“2010 Plan”), the board of directors of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc., or its compensation committee, has the ability to grant, among other things, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance units.

The board of directors of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. awards restricted shares to non-employee board members, other than directors designated by The Blackstone Group L.P. or its affiliates, on an annual basis as part of such board members’ annual compensation and to newly elected non-employee board members, other than directors designated by The Blackstone Group L.P. or its affiliates, in accordance with the Company’s Non-Employee Director Compensation Program.

In addition, the board of directors of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. or its compensation committee awards time-based restricted shares to certain employees on an annual basis as part of the employees’ annual compensation. The share-based awards are generally issued in the fourth quarter, and the awards vest in equal annual installments over the applicable service vesting period, which is three years.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage and share amounts)

Starting in January 2012, during the first quarter, the compensation committee of the board of directors of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. adopts an Outperformance Plan (“OPP”) under the 2010 Plan. Each OPP is a multi-year outperformance program covering certain senior executives, and authorizes grants of incentive awards linked to absolute and relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) over the applicable three-year performance period. During March 2016, the Compensation Committee adopted the 2016 OPP Plan under the Company’s 2010 Plan. The 2016 OPP is substantially similar to the previous OPPs except that (i) the performance period will run from January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2018, (ii) the maximum bonus pool under the 2016 OPP is $17.5 million, (iii) the 2016 OPP provides for a target bonus pool equal to $3.7 million and (iv) the bonus pool will be equal to 3% of the amount by which Total stockholder Return (“TSR”) during the performance period exceeds the applicable goal. For certain participants the 2016 OPP awards will be settled in performance units of the operating partnership (rather than common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc.).

In December 2015, the board of directors of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. awarded special one-time retention grants to certain employees, which includes time-vesting restricted stock and performance-based RSUs. These awards vests over four years (subject to continued employment and, with respect to the RSUs, the achievement of performance goals). Additionally, these awards are subject to a two-year hold upon vesting.

10. Earnings Per Share

The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing the net income available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company calculates diluted earnings per share by dividing the net income available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive instruments outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Unvested time-based RSUs and unvested OPP awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends are participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The following table reconciles the numerator and denominator in computing the Company’s basic and diluted per share computations for net income available to common stockholders:

We include unvested awards as contingently issuable shares in the computation of diluted EPS once the market criteria are met, assuming that the end of the reporting period is the end of the contingency period. Any anti-dilutive securities are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation. Shares related to our 2015 OPP, 2016 OPP and performance based one-time retention grants were excluded from the calculation of dilutive net income per common share for March 31, 2016 because they are not currently expected to be earned.

Common units and shares of common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. have essentially the same economic characteristics, as they share equally in the total net income or loss distributions of the operating partnership. Investors who own common units have the right to cause the operating partnership to redeem any or all of their common units for cash equal to the then-current market value of one share of common stock or, at the Company’s election, issue shares of common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. in exchange for common units on a one-for-one basis.

Performance units are partnership interests in the operating partnership. Each performance unit awarded will be deemed equivalent to an award of one unit of common stock under the 2010 Plan, reducing the availability for other equity awards on a one-for-one basis. Under the terms of the performance units, the operating partnership will revalue for tax purposes its assets upon the occurrence of certain specified events, and any increase in valuation from the time of grant until such event will be allocated first to the holders of performance units to equalize the capital accounts of such holders with the capital accounts of common unitholders. Subject to any agreed upon exceptions, once vested and having achieved parity with common unitholders, performance units are convertible into common units in the operating partnership on a one-for-one basis.

The Stockholders Agreement

On April 1, 2015, in connection with the closing of the EOP Acquisition as described above, the Company entered into the Stockholders Agreement (the “Stockholders Agreement”) by and among the Company, the operating partnership, Blackstone Real Estate Advisors L.P. (“BREA”) and Blackstone. The Stockholders Agreement sets forth various arrangements and restrictions with respect to the governance of the Company and certain rights of Blackstone with respect to the shares of common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and common units of the operating partnership received by Blackstone in connection with the EOP Acquisition (the “Equity Consideration”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, in April 2015 the board of directors of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. (the “Board”) was expanded from eight to eleven directors, and three director nominees designated by Blackstone to the Board were elected. On January 13, 2016, one of Blackstone’s nominees resigned from the Board, and Blackstone indicated that it would not designate an individual to replace him. Subsequently, the Board voted to decrease its size to ten directors. Subject to certain exceptions, the Board will continue to include Blackstone’ designees in its slate of nominees, and will continue to recommend such nominees, and will otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to solicit the vote of the stockholders of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. to elect to the Board the slate of nominees which includes those designated by Blackstone. Blackstone will have the right to designate three nominees for so long as it continues to beneficially own, in the aggregate, greater than 50% of the Equity Consideration. If Blackstone’ beneficial ownership of the Equity Consideration decreases, then the number of director nominees that Blackstone will have the right to designate will be reduced (i) to two, if Blackstone beneficially owns greater than or equal to 30% but less than or equal to 50% of the Equity Consideration and (ii) to one, if Blackstone beneficially owns greater than or equal to 15% but less than 30% of the Equity Consideration. The Board nomination rights of Blackstone will terminate at such time as Blackstone beneficially owns less than 15% of the Equity Consideration or upon written notice of waiver or termination of such rights by Blackstone. So long as Blackstone retains the right to designate at least one nominee to the Board, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. will not be permitted to increase the total number of directors comprising the Board to more than twelve persons without the prior written consent of Blackstone.

For so long as Blackstone has the right to designate at least two director nominees, subject to the satisfaction of applicable NYSE independence requirements, Blackstone will also be entitled to appoint one such nominee then serving on the Board to serve on each committee of the Board (other than certain specified committees).

The Stockholders Agreement also includes standstill provisions, which require that, until such time as Blackstone beneficially owns shares of common stock representing less than 10% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a fully-diluted basis, Blackstone and BREA are restricted from, among other things, acquiring additional equity or debt securities (other than non-recourse debt and certain other debt) of the Company without the Company’s prior written consent.

In addition, pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, until April 1, 2017, the Company is required to obtain the prior written consent of Blackstone prior to the issuance of common equity securities by it or any of its subsidiaries other than up to an aggregate of 16,843,028 shares of common stock (and certain other exceptions).

Further, until such time as Blackstone beneficially owns, in the aggregate, less than 15% of the Equity Consideration, Blackstone will cause all common stock held by it to be voted by proxy (i) in favor of all persons nominated to serve as directors by the Board (or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee thereof) in any slate of nominees which includes Blackstone’ nominees and (ii) otherwise in accordance with the recommendation of the Board (to the extent the recommendation is not inconsistent with the rights of Blackstone under the Stockholders Agreement) with respect to any other action, proposal or other matter to be voted upon by the stockholders of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc., other than in connection with (A) any proposed transaction relating to a change of control of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc., (B) any amendments to the charter or bylaws of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc., (C) any other transaction that Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. submits to a vote of its stockholders pursuant to Section 312.03 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual or (D) any other transaction that Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. submits to a vote of its stockholders for approval.

As required by the Stockholders Agreement, the Company has agreed that Blackstone and certain of its affiliates may engage in investments, strategic relationships or other business relationships with entities engaged in other business, including those that compete with the Company, and will have no obligation to present any particular investment or business opportunity to the Company, even if the opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the Company, could be undertaken by the Company. As required by the Stockholders Agreement, to the maximum extent permitted under Maryland law, the Company has renounced

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage and share amounts)

any interest or expectancy in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any such investment, opportunity or activity presented to or developed by Blackstone, its nominees for election as directors and certain of its affiliates, other than any opportunity expressly offered to a director nominated at the direction of Blackstone in his or her capacity as a director of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc.

Further, without the prior written consent of Blackstone, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. may not amend certain provisions of its bylaws relating to the ability of its directors and officers to engage in other business or to adopt qualification for directors other than those in effect as of the date of the Stockholders Agreement or as are generally applicable to all directors, respectively.

The Stockholders Agreement also includes certain provisions that, together, are intended to enhance the liquidity of common units to be held by Blackstone.

Redemption Rights of Blackstone

Under the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, the Company (in its capacity as the general partner of the operating partnership) has waived the 14-month holding period set forth in the Fourth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement before Blackstone may require the operating partnership to redeem the common units and grants certain additional rights to Blackstone in connection with such redemptions. Among other things, the Company generally must give Blackstone notice before 9:30 a.m. Eastern time on the business day after the business day on which Blackstone gives the Company notice of redemption of any common units of the Company’s election, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) cause the operating partnership to redeem all of the tendered common units in exchange for a cash amount per common units equal to the value of one share of common stock on the date that Blackstone provided its notice of redemption, calculated in accordance with and subject to adjustment as provided in the Fourth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement, or (b) subject to the restrictions on ownership and transfer of the Company’s stock set forth in its charter, acquire all of the tendered common units from Blackstone in exchange for shares of common stock, based on an exchange ratio of one share of common stock for each common unit, subject to adjustment as provided in the Fourth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement. If the Company fails to timely provide such notice, the Company will be deemed to have elected to cause the operating partnership to redeem all such tendered common units in exchange for shares of common stock.

The Company may also elect to cause the operating partnership to redeem all common units tendered by Blackstone with the proceeds of a public or private offering of common stock under certain circumstances as discussed more fully below.

Restrictions on Transfer of Common Units by Blackstone

Ownership Limit Waiver

In connection with the issuance of the Equity Consideration, the Board granted to Blackstone and certain of its affiliates a limited exception to the restrictions on ownership and transfer of common stock set forth in the charter of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. (the “Charter”) that allows Blackstone and certain of its affiliates to own, directly or indirectly, in the aggregate, up to 17,707,056 shares of common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. (the “Excepted Holder Limit”). This exception is conditioned upon the continued accuracy of various representations and covenants set forth in Blackstone’s waiver request delivered on April 1, 2015, confirming, among other things, that neither Blackstone nor certain of its affiliates may own, directly or indirectly, (i) more than 9.9% of the interests in a tenant of the Company (other than a tenant of the 1455 Market Street office property) or (ii) more than 5.45% of the interests in a tenant of the 1455 Market Street office property, in each case subject to certain exceptions that may reduce such ownership percentage, but not below 2% and representations intended to confirm that Blackstone’s and certain of its affiliates’ ownership of common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. will not cause Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. to otherwise fail to qualify as a REIT.

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage and share amounts)

The exception for Blackstone and certain of its affiliates will apply until (i) Blackstone or any such affiliate violates any of the representations or covenants in Blackstone’s waiver request or (ii) (a) Blackstone or any such affiliate owns, directly or indirectly, more than the applicable ownership percentage (as described above) of the interests in any tenant(s) and (b) the maximum rental income expected to be produced by such tenant(s) exceeds (x) 0.5% of the Company’s gross income (in the case of tenants other than tenants of the 1455 Market Street office property) or (y) 0.5% of the 1455 Market Street Joint Venture’s gross income (in the case of tenants of the 1455 Market Street office property) for any taxable year (the “Rent Threshold”), at which time the number of shares of common stock that Blackstone and certain of its affiliates may directly or indirectly own will be reduced to the number of shares of common stock which would result in the amount of rent from such tenant(s) (that would be treated as related party rents under certain tax rules) representing no more than the Rent Threshold.

In addition, due to Blackstone’s ownership of common units of limited partnership interest in the operating partnership and the application of certain constructive ownership rules, the operating partnership will be considered to own the common stock that is directly or indirectly owned by Blackstone and certain of its affiliates. For this reason, the Board has also granted the operating partnership an exception to the restrictions on ownership and transfer of common stock set forth in the Charter.

The Registration Rights Agreement

On April 1, 2015, in connection with the closing of the EOP Acquisition, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated April 1, 2015 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), by and among the Company and Blackstone. The Registration Rights Agreement provides for customary registration rights with respect to the Equity Consideration, including the following:

•

Shelf Registration. On October 27, 2015, the Company filed a prospectus covering Blackstone’s shares of common stock received as part of the Equity Consideration as well as shares issuable upon redemption of common units received as part of the Equity Consideration. The Company is required to use its reasonable best efforts to keep such resale shelf registration statement effective for as long as Blackstone continues to hold such shares of common stock.


•	Demand Registrations. Beginning November 1, 2015 (or earlier if transfer restrictions under the Stockholders Agreement are terminated earlier), Blackstone may cause the Company to register their shares if the foregoing resale shelf registration statement is not effective or if the Company is not eligible to file a shelf registration statement.

•

Qualified Offerings. Any registered offerings requested by Blackstone that are to an underwriter on a firm commitment basis for reoffering and resale to the public, in an offering that is a “bought deal” with one or more investment banks or in a block trade with a broker-dealer will be (subject to certain specified exceptions): (i) no more frequent than once in any 120-day period, (ii) subject to underwriter lock-ups from prior offerings then in effect, and (iii) subject to a minimum offering size of $50.0 million.

•

Piggy-Back Rights. Beginning November 1, 2015 (or earlier if transfer restrictions under the Stockholders Agreement are terminated earlier), Blackstone is permitted to, among other things, participate in offerings for the Company’s account or the account of any other security holder of the Company (other than in certain specified cases). If underwriters advise that the success of a proposed offering would be significantly and adversely affected by the inclusion of all securities in an offering initiated by the Company for the Company’s own account, then the securities proposed to be included by Blackstone together with other stockholders exercising similar piggy-back rights are cut back first.

Limited Partnership Agreement

On April 1, 2015, in connection with the closing of the EOP Acquisition, the Company, as the general partner of the operating partnership, entered into the Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the operating partnership dated April 1, 2015 along with Blackstone and the other limited partners of the operating partnership. The principal changes to the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the operating partnership, as amended and as in effect immediately prior to the closing of the EOP Acquisition, made by the Third Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement were to add the provisions described below. The Third Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement was subsequently amended and restated on December 17, 2015 by the Fourth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of the operating partnership.

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage and share amounts)

The Stockholders Agreement prohibits the Company, without the prior written consent of Blackstone, from amending certain provisions of the Fourth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement in a manner adverse in any respect to Blackstone (in its capacity as limited partners of the operating partnership), or to add any new provision to the Fourth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement that would have a substantially identical effect or from taking any action that is intended to or otherwise would have a substantially identical effect.

Restrictions on Mergers, Sales, Transfers and Other Significant Transactions of the Company

Prior to the date on which Blackstone and any of its affiliates own less than 9.8% of the Equity Consideration, the Company may not consummate any of (a) a merger, consolidation or other combination of the Company’s or the operating partnership’s assets with another person, (b) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the operating partnership, (c) sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets not in the ordinary course of the operating partnership’s business or (d) a reclassification, recapitalization or change in the Company’s outstanding equity securities (other than in connection with a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, change in par value, increase in authorized shares, designation or issuance of new classes of equity securities or any event that does not require the approval of the Company’s stockholders), in each case, which is submitted to the holders of the common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. for approval, unless such transaction is also approved by the partners of the operating partnership holding common units on a “pass through” basis, which, in effect, affords the limited partners of the operating partnership that hold common units the right to vote on such transaction as though such limited partners held the number of shares of common stock into which their common units were then exchangeable and voted together with the holders of the outstanding common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. with respect to such transaction.

Stock Offering Funding of Redemption

If Blackstone or any of its affiliates who become limited partners of the operating partnership (“Specified Limited Partners”) delivers a notice of redemption with respect to common units that, if exchanged for common stock, would result in a violation of the Excepted Holder Limit (as defined below) or otherwise violate the restrictions on ownership and transfer of the Company’s stock set forth in its charter and that have an aggregate value in excess of $50.0 million as calculated pursuant to the terms of the Fourth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, then, if the Company is then eligible to register the offering of its securities on Form S-3 (or any successor form similar thereto), the Company may elect to cause the operating partnership to redeem such common units with the net proceeds from a public or private offering of the number of shares of common stock that would be deliverable in exchange for such common units but for the application of the Excepted Holder Limit and other restrictions on ownership and transfer of the Company’s stock. If the Company elects to fund the redemption of any common units with such an offering, it will allow all Specified Limited Partners the opportunity to include additional common units held by such Specified Limited Partners in such redemption.

Blackstone Margin Loan

HPP BREP V Holdco A LLC (“Borrower”), an affiliate of Blackstone, has entered into (i) a Margin Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) dated as of December 29, 2015 with the lenders party thereto (each, a “Lender” and, collectively, the “Lenders”) and the administrative agent party thereto and (ii) Pledge and Security Agreements dated as of December 31, 2015, in each case, between one of the Lenders, as secured party, and Borrower, as pledgor (the “Borrower Pledge Agreements”), and certain of Borrower’s affiliates (each, a “Holdco A Guarantor” and collectively, the “Holdco A Guarantors”) each entered into (i) with each Lender, a Pledge and Security Agreement dated as of December 31, 2015 (each, a “Holdco A Guarantor Pledge Agreement” and, collectively with the Borrower Pledge Agreements, the “Pledge Agreements”) and (ii) with the administrative agent and the Lenders, a Guarantee dated as of December 31, 2015 of the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Agreement (each, a “Holdco A Guarantee” and collectively the “Holdco A Guarantees”). In addition, certain of Borrower’s other affiliates (each, a “Holdco B Guarantor” and collectively, the “Holdco B Guarantors” and, together with the Holdco A Guarantors, the “Guarantors”) each entered into, with the administrative agent and the Lenders, a Guarantee dated as of December 31, 2015 of the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Agreement (each, a “Holdco B Guarantee” and, collectively with the Holdco A Guarantees, the Loan Agreement, the Pledge Agreements and substantially similar pledge and security agreements entered into since December 31, 2015, the “Loan Documents”). Each of the Borrower, the Holdco A Guarantors and the Holdco B Guarantors is affiliated with Blackstone.

As of December 31, 2015, the Borrower has borrowed an aggregate of $350.0 million under the Loan Agreement. Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, the Borrower may borrow up to an additional $150.0 million on or after March 1, 2016. The scheduled maturity date of the loans under the Loan Agreement is December 31, 2017, which may be extended at the election

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage and share amounts)

of the Borrower until December 31, 2018. To secure borrowings under the Loan Agreement, the Borrower and the Guarantors have collectively pledged 8,276,945 shares of common stock and 52,627,118 common units in the operating partnership, as well as their respective rights under the Registration Rights Agreement.

Upon the occurrence of certain events that are customary for this type of loan, the Lenders may exercise their rights to require the Borrower to pre-pay the loan proceeds, post additional collateral, or foreclose on, and dispose of, the pledged shares of common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and pledged common units in the operating partnership in accordance with the Loan Documents.

The Company did not independently verify the foregoing disclosure regarding the margin loan. In addition, the Company is not a party to the Loan Documents and has no obligations thereunder, but has delivered an Issuer Agreement to each of the Lenders in which it has, among other things, agreed to certain obligations relating to the pledged shares of the common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and pledged common units in the operating partnership and, subject to applicable law and stock exchange rules, agreed not to take any actions that are intended to materially hinder or delay the exercise of any remedies with respect to the pledged shares of the common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and pledged common units in the operating partnership.

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal

From time to time, the Company is party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings arising out of, or incident to, the ordinary course of business. Management believes, based in part upon consultation with legal counsel, that the ultimate resolution of all such claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. As of March 31, 2016, the risk of material loss from such legal actions impacting the Company’s financial condition or results from operations has been assessed as remote.

Concentrations

As of March 31, 2016, the majority of the Company’s properties were located in California, which exposes the Company to greater economic risks than if it owned a more geographically dispersed portfolio.

A significant portion of the Company’s rental revenue is derived from tenants in the media, entertainment and technology industries. As of March 31, 2016, approximately 13.3% and 28.3% of rentable square feet were related to the media and entertainment and technology industries, respectively.

As of March 31, 2016, the Company’s 15 largest tenants represented approximately 27.7% of its rentable square feet. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, no single tenant accounted for more than 10%.

Letters of Credit

As of March 31, 2016, the Company has outstanding letters of credit totaling approximately $3.3 million under the unsecured revolving credit facility. The letters of credit are primarily related to utility company security deposit requirements.

14. Subsequent Events

Patrick Henry Drive disposition

On April 7, 2016, the Company sold its 70,520-square-foot Patrick Henry Drive office property in Santa Clara, California for $19.0 million (before certain credits, prorations, and closing costs). The Company acquired Patrick Henry Drive from Blackstone as part of the EOP Acquisition in 2015.

Sales agreements

On April 25, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its now fully pre-leased, 100,007-square-foot 12655 Jefferson redevelopment in Playa Vista, California for $80.0 million (before certain credits, prorations and closing costs).

Significant leasing activity

On May 4, 2016, the Company executed a long-term renewal with Qualcomm Technologies Inc. for 365,502 square feet at the three-building, Skyport Plaza office campus in North San Jose, California. The terms of the renewal became effective as of April 1, 2016, increased office rental income and extended the expiration of this major lease to August 2022.

Debt activity

On May 3, 2016, the Company drew on the $175.0 million 5-Year Term Loan due November 2020 and $125.0 million 7-Year Term Loan due November 2022 that were entered into on November 17, 2015. Amounts drawn were used to fully pay down the 901 Market mortgage loan and unsecured revolving credit facility, and partially pay down the Sunset Gower/Sunset Bronson mortgage loans and the 5-Year Term Loan due April 2020. Additionally, the Company entered into a interest rate swap on its 7-Year Term Loan due November 2022 to effectively fix the interest rate at 3.03% to 3.98%.

(1)	Sold on April 7, 2016 and reflected as held for sale on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

All amounts and percentages used in this discussion of our results of operations are calculated using the numbers presented in the financial statements contained in Part I, Item I of this Quarterly Report rather than the rounded numbers appearing in this discussion.

Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2016 to the three months ended March 31, 2015

Net Operating Income

We evaluate performance based upon property net operating income (“NOI”) from continuing operations. NOI is not a measure of operating results or cash flows from operating activities as measured by GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to income from continuing operations or cash flows, as an indication of our performance or of our ability to make distributions, or as a measure of our liquidity. Companies may not calculate NOI in the same manner. We consider NOI to be a useful performance measure to investors and management because, when compared across periods, NOI reflects the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating our properties, and the impact to operations from trends on occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs, thus providing a perspective not immediately apparent from income from continuing operations. We define NOI as operating revenues (including rental revenues, other property-related revenue, tenant recoveries and other operating revenues), less property-level operating expenses (which includes external management fees, if any, and property-level general and administrative expenses). NOI excludes corporate general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, impairments, gain/loss on sale of real estate, interest expense, acquisition-related expenses and other non-operating items. We believe that NOI on a cash basis (which we define as NOI on a GAAP basis, adjusted to exclude the effect of straight-line rent and other non-cash adjustments required by GAAP) is helpful to investors as an additional measure of operating performance.

Management further evaluates NOI by evaluating the performance from the following property groups:


•	Same-store properties, which include all of the properties owned and included in our stabilized portfolio as of January 1, 2015 and still owned and included in the stabilized portfolio as of March 31, 2016;


•	Non-same-store properties, development projects, redevelopment properties and lease-up properties as of March 31, 2016 and other properties not owned or in operation from January 1, 2015 through March 31, 2016. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the non-same-store properties include the activity from the EOP Acquisition.

Total NOI increased $60.2 million, or 152%, for the three months ended March 31, 2016 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015, primarily due to:


•	A $2.0 million, or 6%, increase in NOI from our same-store office properties resulting primarily from the lease-up of our 1455 Market (Uber) property and increased tenant recoveries at our Technicolor property due to a non-recurring property tax refund in 2015. The increase was partially offset by decreased occupancy at the Pinnacle I and 6922 Hollywood properties.


•	A $56.8 million, or 1,337%, increase in NOI from our non-same-store office store properties resulting primarily from the EOP Acquisition. The remaining increase is as a result of lease-up of our Element LA (Riot Games) and 901 Market (Saks) properties. This increase was partially offset by the sale of our First Financial property on March 5, 2015.


•	A $1.4 million, or 36% increase in NOI from our same-store media and entertainment properties resulting primarily from a result of lease-up of Sunset Bronson. In the first quarter of 2015, the Company decided to take certain buildings and stages off-line to facilitate our ICON development and other longer-term plans for the Sunset Bronson property.

Office NOI

Same-Store

Office rental revenue increased $1.5 million, or 4%, to $39.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $37.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase is primarily due to rental income relating to new leases signed at our 1455 Market (Uber) at higher rents than expiring leases, partially offset by a decrease in occupancy at our Pinnacle I and 6922 Hollywood properties.

Office tenant recoveries increased $2.4 million, or 43%, to $7.9 million for three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase is primarily related to a $1.1 million one-time property tax recoveries resulting from the reassessment of the Technicolor property in 2016. The remaining increase in tenant recoveries is related to various same-store properties increases in occupancy and operating expenses.

Office parking and other revenue was flat at $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015.

Office operating expenses increased by $1.8 million, or 11%, to $17.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $16.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Increase in operating expenses is due to general increases in occupancy.

Non-Same-Store

Office rental revenue increased $73.2 million, or 1,931%, to $76.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $3.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase is primarily due to the EOP Acquisition and 100% occupancy at our Element LA property, partially offset by the sale of First Financial during the first quarter of 2015.

Office tenant recoveries increased $12.1 million, or 2,117%, to $12.7 million for three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase is primarily due to the EOP Acquisition and 100% occupancy at our Element LA property, partially offset by the sale of First Financial during the first quarter of 2015.

Office parking and other revenue increased by $0.3 million, or 28%, to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compare to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase is primarily due to the EOP Acquisition.

Office operating expenses increased by $28.8 million, or 2,437%, to $29.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase is primarily due to the EOP Acquisition and 100% occupancy at our Element LA property, partially offset by the sale of First Financial during the first quarter of 2015.

Same-Store Media & Entertainment NOI

Media and entertainment, rental revenue, tenant recoveries and other property-related revenue increased by $1.4 million, or 14%, to $11.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $9.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase is primarily due to a $0.9 million increase in other property-related revenue to $5.0 million and a $0.6 million increase in rental revenue to $6.0 million. The increase in other property-related revenue largely

resulted from higher production activity at Sunset Bronson compared to the same period a year ago, while the increase in rental revenue stemmed from higher occupancy at both Sunset Gower and Sunset Bronson.

Media and entertainment operating expenses were flat at $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015.

Other Expenses (Income)

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expense include wages and salaries for corporate-level employees, accounting, legal and other professional services, office supplies, entertainment, travel, and automobile expenses, telecommunications and computer-related expenses, and other miscellaneous items. General and administrative expenses increased $3.3 million, or 35.9%, to $12.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $9.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to the adoption of the 2016 OPP, granting of the special one-time retention awards, and increased staffing to meet operational needs arising from growth related to the EOP Acquisition.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $51.2 million, or 298.5%, to $68.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $17.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase was primarily related to depreciation expenses associated with properties in the EOP Acquisition. The remaining increase is related to tenant improvement depreciation expense associated with the lease-up of our Element LA and 1455 Market properties, partially offset by the reduction of depreciation expense as a result of the sale of our First Financial property on March 5, 2015.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $11.8 million, or 214.1%, to $17.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. At March 31, 2016, we had $2.1 billion of notes payable, compared to $920.9 million at March 31, 2015, excluding net deferred financing costs and net unamortized loan premium. The increase was primarily attributable to $1.3 billion of term loan borrowings as a result of the EOP Acquisition, partially offset by interest savings related to our repayment of indebtedness associated with our 275 Brannan property and repayment of debt associated with the sale of our First Financial property on March 5, 2015.

Unrealized loss on ineffective portion of derivative instruments

During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we incurred a one-time expense of $2.1 million related to a portion of our derivative instruments that were evaluated to be ineffective during the first quarter of 2016.

Acquisition-related expenses

During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we incurred $6.0 million of acquisition-related expenses associated with the EOP Acquisition with no such expense during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Gain on sale of real estate

On January 14, 2016, we completed the sale of our Bayhill Office property for $215.0 million (before certain credits, prorations, and closing costs), which generated a $6.4 million of gain on sale of real estate for three months ended March 31, 2016 as compared to a $22.7 million gain on sale of real estate for the three months ended March 31, 2015 resulting from the sale of our First Financial property for $89.0 million (before certain credits, prorations, and closing costs) on March 5, 2015.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had approximately $57.4 million of cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2016.

As of March 31, 2016, we had total borrowing capacity of $400.0 million under our unsecured revolving credit facility, $50.0 million of which had been drawn.

We have an at-the-market equity offering program, or ATM program, that allows us to sell up to $125.0 million of common stock, $14.5 million of which has been sold as of March 31, 2016.

On January 20, 2016, our board of directors authorized a share repurchase program to buy up to $100.0 million of our outstanding common stock. No share repurchases were made during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

We intend to use the unsecured revolving credit facility, the term loan agreements entered in November 2015 and ATM program, among other things, to finance the acquisition of other properties, to provide funds for tenant improvements and capital expenditures, and to provide for working capital and other corporate purposes.

Based on the closing price of our common stock of $28.92 on March 31, 2016, our ratio of debt to total market capitalization was approximately 33.2% (counting series A preferred units as debt) as of March 31, 2016. Our total market capitalization is defined as the sum of the market value of our outstanding common stock (which may decrease, thereby increasing our debt to total capitalization ratio), including restricted stock that we may issue to certain of our directors and executive officers, plus the aggregate value of common units not owned by us, plus the liquidation preference of outstanding series A preferred units, plus the book value of our total consolidated indebtedness.

Our short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of operating expenses and other expenditures associated with our properties, distributions to our limited partners and dividend payments to our stockholders required to maintain our REIT status, capital expenditures and, potentially, acquisitions. We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through cash on hand, net cash provided by operations, reserves established from existing cash and, if necessary, by drawing upon our unsecured revolving credit facility.

Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for the repayment of debt at maturity, property acquisitions and non-recurring capital improvements. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements with net cash from operations, long-term secured and unsecured indebtedness and the issuance of equity and debt securities. We also may fund property acquisitions and non-recurring capital improvements using our unsecured revolving credit facility pending permanent financing.

We believe we have access to multiple sources of capital to fund our long-term liquidity requirements, including the incurrence of additional debt and the issuance of additional equity. However, our ability to incur additional debt will be dependent on a number of factors, including our degree of leverage, the value of our unencumbered assets and borrowing restrictions that may be imposed by lenders. Our ability to access the equity capital markets will be dependent on a number of factors as well, including general market conditions for REITs and market perceptions about us.

Outstanding Indebtedness

Our indebtedness creates the possibility that we may be unable to generate cash sufficient to pay the principal of, interest on or other amounts in respect of our indebtedness and other obligations. In addition, we may incur additional debt from time to time to finance strategic acquisitions, investments, joint ventures or for other purposes, subject to the restrictions contained in the documents governing our indebtedness. If we incur additional debt, the risks associated with our leverage, including our ability to service our debt, would increase.

As of March 31, 2016, we had outstanding notes payable of $2.1 billion (before $0.9 million loan premium and $18.4 million of deferred finance costs), of which $1.16 billion, or 55.3%, was variable rate debt. $714.5 million of the variable rate debt is subject to the interest rate contracts described in Note 6 to our Consolidated Financial Statements—Derivative Instruments.

The following table sets forth information as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 with respect to our outstanding indebtedness, excluding net deferred financing costs related to unsecured revolving credit facility and undrawn term loans.

Cash Flows

Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2016 to the three months ended March 31, 2015 is as follows:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2016			2015			Dollar Change			Percentage Change
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	58,897		$	27,125		$	31,772		117.1	%
Net cash provided by (used for) investing activities	158,214			(203,967		)	362,181			(177.6	)%
Net cash (used for) provided by financing activities	(213,295		)	406,979			(620,274		)	(152.4	)%

Cash and cash equivalents were $57.4 million and $53.6 million at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $31.8 million to $58.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $27.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in cash NOI, as defined, from our office properties, primarily from the acquisition of the EOP Northern California portfolio, increased occupancy and higher rental revenue from our 1455 Market and Element LA properties, partially offset by lower gain recognized related to our Bayhill Office Center property in 2016 as compared to the gain recognized related to our First Financial property in 2015.

Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities increased by $362.2 million to $158.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to net cash used for investing activities of $204.0 million for three months ended March 31, 2015. The net cash provided by investing activities in 2016 included proceeds of the sale of Bay park offset by payments for additions to invesmtent property. The net cash used in investing activities in 2015 included payment for a deposit related to the acquisition of the EOP portfolio and payments for additions in investment property offset by proceeds from the sale of our First Financial property.

Financing Activities

Net cash used for financing activities increased $620.3 million to $213.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $407.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The net cash used by financing activities in 2016 is primarily a result of pay downs of notes payable and distributions to our stock and unit holders partially offset by proceeds from notes payable. The net cash provided by financings in 2015 is a result of proceeds generated by the issuance of common equity securities, after underwriters’ discounts, of approximately $385.6 million (before transaction costs) used to partially fund the EOP portfolio acquisition and proceeds from our joint venture sale of our 1455 Market property of $219.2 million partially offset by payments of notes payable and distributions to our stock and unit holders.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

During the three months ended March 31, 2016, 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, 2015.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We currently do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our historical financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates of certain items and judgments as to certain future events, for example with respect to the allocation of the purchase price of acquired property among land, buildings, improvements, equipment, and any related intangible assets and liabilities, or the effect of a property tax reassessment of our properties. These determinations, even though inherently subjective and prone to change, affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. While we believe that our estimates are based on reasonable assumptions and judgments at the time they are made, some of our assumptions, estimates and judgments will inevitably prove to be incorrect. As a result, actual outcomes will likely differ from our accruals, and those differences—positive or negative—could be material. Some of our accruals are subject to adjustment, as we believe appropriate based on revised estimates and reconciliation to the actual results when available.

In addition, we identified certain critical accounting policies that affect certain of our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing our consolidated financial statements in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We have not made any material changes to these policies during the periods covered by this Report.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measure: Funds From Operations

We calculate FFO in accordance with the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, gains and losses from sales of depreciable real estate and impairment write-downs associated with depreciable real estate, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets) and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The calculation of FFO includes the amortization of deferred revenue related to tenant-funded tenant improvements and excludes the depreciation of the related tenant improvement assets. We believe that FFO is a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance. The exclusion from FFO of gains and losses from the sale of operating real estate assets allows investors and analysts to readily identify the operating results of the assets that form the core of our activity and assists in comparing those operating results between periods. Also, because FFO is generally recognized as the industry standard for reporting the operations of REITs, it facilitates comparisons of operating performance to other REITs. However, other REITs may use different methodologies to calculate FFO, and accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to all other REITs.

Implicit in historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP is the assumption that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies using historical cost accounting alone to be insufficient. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, we believe that FFO along with the required GAAP presentations provides a more complete measurement of our performance relative to our competitors and a more appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing and investing activities than the required GAAP presentations alone would provide.

However, FFO should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our operating performance because it does not reflect either depreciation and amortization costs or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, which are significant economic costs and could materially impact our results from operations.

The following table presents our FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 and a reconciliation of FFO to net income:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2016			2015
Net income	$	5,976		$	24,574
Adjustments:
Depreciation and amortization of real estate assets	67,905			17,073
Gain from Sale of Real Estate	(6,352		)	(22,691		)
FFO attributable to non-controlling interest	(4,162		)	(3,312		)
Net income attributable to preferred stock and units	(159		)	(3,195		)
FFO to common stockholders and unitholders	$	63,208		$	12,449


ITEM 3.	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The primary market risk we face is interest rate risk. 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. As more fully described below, we use derivative financial instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings. We only enter into contracts with major financial institutions based on their credit rating and other factors.

Interest risk amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our financial instruments. These analyses do not consider the effect of any change in overall economic activity that could occur in that environment. Further, in the event of a change of that magnitude, we may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, these analyses assume no changes in our financial structure.

On February 11, 2011, we closed a five-year term loan totaling $92.0 million with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., secured by our Sunset Gower and Sunset Bronson media and entertainment properties. The loan initially bore interest at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 3.50%. On March 16, 2011, we purchased an interest rate cap in order to cap one-month LIBOR at 3.715% on $50.0 million of the loan through its original maturity of February 11, 2016. On January 11, 2012 we purchased an interest rate cap in order to cap one-month LIBOR at 2.00% with respect to $42.0 million of the loan through its original maturity of February 11, 2016. Effective August 22, 2013, the terms of this loan were amended to, among other changes, increase the outstanding balance from $92.0 million to $97.0 million, reduce the interest rate from one-month LIBOR plus 3.50% to one-month LIBOR plus 2.25%, and extend the maturity date from February 11, 2016 to February 11, 2018. The derivatives described above were not changed in connection with this loan amendment. Effective March 4, 2015, the terms of this loan were amended and restated to provide the ability to draw up to an additional $160.0 million for budgeted construction costs associated with our ICON development and to extend the maturity date from February 11, 2018 to March 4, 2019. The derivatives described above were not changed in connection with this loan amendment and matured during the first quarter of 2016. During the period from maturity to March 31, 2016, the interest rate on the full outstanding balance was not hedged.

On July 31, 2013, we closed a seven-year loan totaling $64.5 million with Union Bank, N.A., secured by our Met Park North property. The loan bears interest at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 155 basis points. The full loan is subject to an interest rate contract that swapped one-month LIBOR to a fixed rate of 2.16% through the loans maturity on August 1, 2020.

Effective as of May 1, 2015, we entered into an interest rate contract with respect to $300.0 million of the $550.0 million 5-Year Term Loan due April 2020 that swapped one-month LIBOR to a fixed rate of 1.36% through the loan’s maturity on April 1, 2020. As a result, $300.0 million of the 5-Year Term Loan due April 2020 currently bears interest at a rate equal to 2.66% to 3.56% per annum depending on our leverage ratio ($250.0 million of which is not subject to an interest rate contract). Effective as of May 1, 2015, we entered into an interest rate contract with respect to the entire $350.0 million 7-Year Term Loan due April 2022 that swapped one-month LIBOR to a fixed rate of 1.61% through the loan’s maturity on April 1, 2022. As a result, the 7-Year Term Loan due April 2022 currently bears interest at a rate equal to 3.21% to 4.16% per annum depending on our leverage ratio.

The remaining variable debt rate, which consists of our unsecured revolving credit facility, unsecured term loans, as well as the loan on our 901 Market property, is not subject to interest rate hedges.

For sensitivity purposes with respect to the $50.0 million drawn under our unsecured revolving credit facility, the $550.0 million drawn under our 5-Year Term Loan due April 2020 ($250.0 million of which is not subject to an interest rate hedge), the $30.0 million loan on our 901 Market property, and the $115.0 million loan on our Sunset Gower and Sunset Bronson media and entertainment properties, if one-month LIBOR as of March 31, 2016 was to increase by 100 basis points, or 1.0%, the resulting increase in annual interest expense would impact our future earnings and cash flows by $4.5 million.

As of March 31, 2016, we had outstanding notes payable of $2.10 billion (before unamortized loan premium and deferred financing costs), of which $1.2 billion, or 55.3%, was variable rate debt. $714.5 million of the variable rate debt is subject to derivatives discussed in Note 6 to our Consolidated Financial Statements—Derivative Instruments. As of March 31, 2016, the estimated fair value of our fixed rate secured mortgage loans was $941.8 million. The estimated fair value of our variable rate debt equals the carrying value.
